Certain Crystal reports don't show data - are there restrictions

Hello,
We created quite a few reports in Crystal Reports (like invoice, deliverynote, picklist etc.).
When we connect some reports in SBO (layout- and design manager) they do not show any data. Only text fields are shown.
In these reports we use tables, UDF and Views. We also have subreports.
The reports are working fine in Crystal itself and also when using Crystal Wave (add-on). All parameters are set the right way, otherwise we would become a parameter error.
We did a test with one of the reports to remove the subreport and then it did show data (not the data from the subreport of course).
Another report with tables, UDF, views and a subreport doesn't give an error. It shows all the data.
So I was wondering what could cause this. Are there any restrictions to a report when connecting a Crystal Report to SBO using the layout- and design manager.
Tim

Do you maybe have inner joins for all of your tables and views?
Maybe it's a parameter issue causing no rows to be displayed.  Did you test the exact DocEntry@ for your layouts?
No, from my experience I have not seen any limits when using SBO and CR inside the client.

  • Crystal Reports not displaying all data

    We have a simple report pulling from 3 tables on a sql server. For some reason, data from one table does not fully display. The table is called Referral, and we have some clients that have a Referral record tied to them. Out of a report of 20 records, we will have 3-4 that won't display the referral data (even though I can see it in the database), but the other 16 records will. If I go into the database, and change the data on one of the non-displaying referral records and save, it will start displaying. If I then change the data back to the original, it will also display. Being new to Crystal Reports, I don't know if this is a Crystal issue or a problem at the data source, but thought I would put it out here in case someone is familiar with this problem. Our Crystal Reports version is 2011.
    Thanks.

    Hi
    This could be either table join problem in your crystal reports designer or when you are linking the tables it is unable to match the records.
    -- Go in Crystal reports designer and refresh the report and go in Database Menu--Show SQL query and copy the SQL and run the same at database end and check.
    Also you said you are able to see all records at database end, if you are extracting data through SQL you can very well copy that SQL in crystal reports under 'Add Command'  option and create your report.
    You will find Add command option under your Database connection while creating a report.
    Thanks,

  • Field Explorer in Crystal Reports does not show the same names as Bex Query

    Hi
    I have crystal reports, I can retrieve data from BW Bex Query. But in the field explorer it does not show the names as in the Bex query designer.
    In the Bex query designer a field will have the following technical name 0Debitor and the description is Customer.
    It shows in crystal reports in the field explorer twice as D[0DEBITOR]D and D[0DEBITOR]D. It also does not seperate key figures and characteristics.
    I would like it to display the field explorer as shown in this blog.

    Hi,
    take a look here:
    /people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/02/19/businessobjects-and-sap-part-2
    make sure you are using the MDX Driver and what happens is that you will see several fields per characteristic. example: one for the key, one for the description, several if modelled for the display attributes

  • Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?

    Hi,
    I am a new user of Crystal Reports 2008.
    I have created a report with charts in it. The input data comes from a csv text file.
    Can I set the name of this text file as an input parameter?
    as I need to generate 44 similar reports with different text filenames(and data)?
    Thank you.
    Regards

    Brian,
    Thanks much.
    I did exactly what you said.
    Just to see any change, I first gave a bad report file name just to see if I am accidentally pointing to a different file,
    but I got an error saying report not found.
    Then I renamed my original datafile name and generated a report and it still generated one without giving an error.
    Then I also gave a junk name to the logoninfo and printed that name, the new name was assigned to logoninfo, but the code did not error out.
    It ended up generating the report.
    Now here is what I think is happening,
    1) The save data in report option seems to be still on even though I have turned it off in 2 locations
    a) file -> Report Options
    b) file -> Options -> Reporting tab.
    2) For some reason the logoninfo is getting ignored as well.
    Since I did not see any answers yesterday I posted a link to this thread on the .Net forum
    Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#
    and Ludek Uher says that I am connecting to the text file via a DAO database engine and so need to use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database.
    But the link he gave me tells me to try the same thing that we have been trying..
    Here is my plan,
    1) I will first try and find out why my save data with report option is still on ( but it shows off in Crystal ).
    2) why is LogonInfo getting ignored.
    Meanwhile any suggestions from anyone are welcome.

  • BI 4.0 w/ Windows AD SSO, but Crystal Report (mdx) prompt login data

    Hi guru,
    We have been struggling for a while on the sso issue between BI 4.0, AD, BW, and CR.
    Our architecture is not complex:
    1. A BI 4.0 (BOE) on Tomcat (windows)
    2. Backend SAP BW as main data source
    3. AD, SAP Authentication are configured in CMC
    4. User can login to Windows Desktop (login to Win Domain) and then link to BI Launchpad w/o giving password (Windows SSO), it works.
    5. Crystal report can be published via BW to BI/2.0/.... folder on BI
    But one thing still not working:
    Our crystal report (using mdx for data accessing to BW) keep asking database login credential when a BI user login via Windows SSO. We want to get rid of this prompt and want to use a mapped R3 account for db access. each windows AD user has a corresponding mapped r3 account configured in CMC. We have tried, but not working.
    The only way we got to avoid the prompt is to remove bwmdx from Crystal Report SSO Config in CMC and manually change the published CR report to use "original data login" as well as assiging the r3 credential. But we have to do it for each CR report.
    Anyone have done this before ?
    Is it possible to Login via Windows SSO and then view CR report w/o giving pwd ?
    Or we have to do some special setting while making the report ?
    Or users have to login by R3 account to get such SSO ?
    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for prompt reply, My answer is:
    No, SNC is not enabled.
    Since BO can get data via the following 3 method from BW, so I'm not sure whether SNC is a must (just for CR SSO)
    Universe(UNV) --> BW
    Universe(UNX) --> BW
    OLAP --> BW
    OK, if SNC is a must to link AD SSO to BW SSO, what kind of SNC (client vs server) should I configure ?
    Thanks

  • Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#

    Hi,
    I am new to the forums and posted a question which belonged to the .net - SAP Crystal reports group.
    Can someone help me with my problem? following is the thread that I have started.
    Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?
    Thank you in advance.

    Looking at the original thread, you are connecting to the text file via the DAO database engine:
    "I added the text file as follow, new connection -> Access/Excell (DAO) -> select the file and the database type as text"
    Thus I would use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database. See Kbase [1218178 - Error: "Logon failed" when connecting to Access database in .NET application|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313338333133373338%7D.do] for more information. If that does not work, you may want to consider connecting via ODBC or feeding the data from the text file to and ADO .NET dataset and pointing the report at the dataset.

  • The database migration report don't show all the erros at creation time

    Hello experts,
    I'm using omwb to migrate a sql server database, i realize that at creation of oracle model there are few stored procedures that was not created.. those object doesn't appear in the Errors_and_Warnings_report.htm but in the logs. My question is why the report don't show those objects?
    Another question: how to list the objects that the tool was unable to create in the oracle model?
    best regards

    HHerrera,
    Are the stored procedures that were not created, but were not in the in the Errors_and_Warnings report, visible in oracle, i.e. is the text available in Oracle? If so, it would be easy to compile all the objects in your schema and do a select to see which stored procedures were invalid.

  • Crystal Report Images Not Showing - JSP inside /WEB-INF folder

    Hi Experts,
    I am using Crystal report for Eclipse and also using Struts2 and tiles framework combination.
    The problem is when viewing the report all I've got is red X on all images and the graph image also not showing. This is when I use tiles and my jsp is inside the web-inf folder.
    This is my struts link: href="s:url value='/report/reportOpen.action?report=1'
    I've checked that the path to the viewer generated HTML is not correct. see code below.
    src="../../../crystalreportviewers/js/crviewerinclude.js"
    But when I test to access a simple jsp viewer that resides on the web root folder, this works fine but of course this is not what I want to have. I need to have my banner and menus on top of the report page (using tiles)
    This is my jsp link: href="s:url value='/ReportViewer.jsp?report=1'
    Viewer generated HTML below.
    src="crystalreportviewers/js/crviewerinclude.js"
    This might be a common problem and that you can share to me your solution.
    Note: I removed the script tags because I can't submit this entry.
    Thank you  in advance,

    Crystal Report Images Not Showing - JSP inside /WEB-INF folder

    Hi Saravana,
    After a few experimentation from your idea i was able to figure out the problem and now it is working.
    I don't have to copy the folder to where my jsp resides but still maintains it in the root location:  web/crystalreportviewers
    The changes should always be in web.xml.
    1st: change the crystal_image_uri value to ../crystalreportviewers
    2nd: change crystal_image_use_relative value to "web"
    Change to "web" instead of webapp because that is what I named my web root folder.
    <context-param>
              <param-name>crystal_image_uri</param-name>
              <param-value>../crystalreportviewers</param-value>
         </context-param>
         <context-param>
              <param-name>crystal_image_use_relative</param-name>
              <param-value>web</param-value>
         </context-param>
    Thank you. You showed me the way on how to solve the 3 day problem.
    BTW, my next problem is when clicking on any buttons prev/next/print/export, I got this error HTTP Status 404.
    Well, at least for now I can view my initial report.  I just need to figure out the next issue and with the help of the great people here in the forum.
    Thanks a lot.

  • Crystal report viewer stop grouping (sorting) when there is a lot of data

    Hi,
    Here is my problem, when I try to view a report that uses grouping and sorting on the Crystal Report Viewer (web), if the query returns more then 490 records then all the groups are screwed up. Basically all the records are in the report but they are not in the proper groups and they are not sorted. It seams like it's running out of memory and just gives up.
    The same report works fine in the Crystal Reports 2008 designer tool.
    Is there a way to increase the memory of the Crystal Report Viewer (web) or is there something else I can do about that?
    Thanks

    I installed the Crystal Report plug-in on my Eclipse and I ran my report in it. Then I got this error:
    Original Order Grouping: Modifying groups with original order grouping is not fully supported.
    Change all groups with 'Sort property to a value other than 'Original Order', or modify the report grouping in the Crystal Report designer application.
    So I modified my report to remove the "Original Order ".
    That seam to fix the problem, I havenu2019t been able to reproduce it since.
    Thanks

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

    Since I have the newest version of itunes, I can't back up like normally. The only way is to considilate files and then put them on an external drive which I don't have. Are there any other options? If I can't back up to a disc like I used to, can I instead just keep everything on my ipod and then if I have to get a new computer or something just download all my songs from the ipod to my new computer's itunes? Will that work? Will I still be able to keep all my songs that way?

    I'm going to assume the consolidating files does not work due to hard drive space limitations.
    Since you're moving to Windows 7, have you tried using the Windows files and settings transfer utility?  That will move everything for you to the same location on the new computer, it also allows some control over what actually gets moved.
    Alternatively, if you know the location of all of the media, it can be manually moved by copying it from the old computer to the new computer in the same location.
    Also, using the Apple article on moving the library, take a slight twist on what it says.  Move the iTunes library to the external drive, update the settings in iTunes to reflect the library being on the external drive, then consolodate it.
    The options are endless for moving the library... it simply takes a little effort to make it happen and possibly a twist on existing "standard" methods depending on your unique situation.

    Customer is using Crystal report to print Delivery Order. DO DocNum is parameter in Crystal report for user to select which DO to print out but the selection list did not show all DO No.
    I saw similar question in forum. I had added "MaxRowsetRecords" ='99999999' into registry but the parameter still doesn't show all the DONo.
    I am using Type=REG_DWORD, value data=99999999 in registry and in crystal report the DocNum parameter is having "Dynamic" type.

  • Crystal Reports Pie Chart showing Sum 100% in Legend.  How to remove?

    I have a Pie chart which displays correctly but in the Legend is displayed the values with the correct percentages AND  the Sum showing 100%.
    I need to either remove the Sum line or be able to change the text from the report since I have to produce the report in 4 languages and the Sum always shows up in the language of the server.
    the legend looks something like;
    value1  25%
    value2  25%
    value3  75%
    Sum     100%   <------  this line must go or be changed  (e.g. in Italian as Totale)
    Running a server for each language is not an option
    There are a variable number of values so I cannot overlay a rectangle on a fixed position.  (awfull solution)
    Is there any way I can simply turn off the Summ (not the whole legend which is needed)?
    any help would be greatly appreciated.
    I am using Crystal Reports 2008
    Best Regards
    Chris Ryder

    Well  Thank you everyone for your suggestions.
    The client is very specific about the look and feel so I cannot change to not using a legend.  However,  the discussions serves to confirm that it is NOT possible which is actually just as useful.
    In Conclusion
    To restate the problem  the client has a report which can be displayed in one of four languages by choice from the end user.  The report contains a pie chart which displays the various segment names and percentages as a legend.  At the bottom of this legend appears automaticaly the word Summ in the langauge of the the 'Server Locale' (in our case german Summe) and the 100% value.
    I wished to know if it was possible to either change the language of this word (without changing the server as I do not have access) or to remove it altogether.
    The answer is NO it is not possible to remove only this word or to change it in anyway.
    Our final workaround is;
    we hide the Legend on the graph and build it as a seperate entity next to the graph.  Not ideal as everything is then done twice and we have an indirect link between the segment colours and the legend colours which is not apparent directly in the report.  But at least the client has signed off on the report.
    once again thank you for taking the time to think about the problem.
