Changing formats of dynamic prompt parameters

Hello,
I am currently using Business Objects XI R2 (SP3) and some users have a dynamic prompt that returns what year the report should query on. However, the prompt is currently returning this:
2,006
2,007
2,008
2,009
2,010
Is there a way (besides converting the number to text) to get rid of the thousand separator? Also, what about dates? How can you change the format they are displayed as?

Bad news on both fronts...
#1 The only way to format that correctly would be to bring those values in as text. To make matters even more complicated, they have to come from the DB as text... You can't use a CR formula to to convert the value and then use the formula.
#2 You're stuck with YYYY-MM-DD for date formats... That is if you want to keep the prompt type set to Date or Date Time (and therefore, keep the date picker control.
You do have the option to use a text style prompt and allow the user to enter dates however they like...
Sorry I don't have better answers...

Change format to Calendar Prompt

Hi, i want to change the format to the calendar Prompt. The problem is that when i select a date the format used is d/m/yyyy and i need the yyyy-mm-dd format.
I change the function function NQCSetDate(d, m, y) in Calendar.js (located in OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\b_mozilla) but it doesn t work.
My OBIEE is installled on a Unix machine and the version is 10.1.3.3.3
Thanks

http://108obiee.blogspot.com/search/label/DATE
Leave NQCSetDate as in the previous state (original), you don't need to edit it for this problem (can be edited for other purspose, for example to show 1-Jan-2000 instead of 1-1-2009).
If you want yyyy-mm-dd format in the calendar make changes in the localedefinitions.xml, it is well explained here: http://108obiee.blogspot.com/2009/03/how-to-change-date-format-mask-in-date.html.
dateShortFormat: yyyy-MM-dd (this is used when placing default value to calendar prompt but before picking value from calendar)
dateSeparator: - (this is used after selecting from calendar)
dateOrder: ymd (this is used after selecting from calendar)
If you want to show it with leading zeros (2009-01-01):

Changing Date Format in Dashboard prompt drop down list

Hi friends, my dashboard shows a drop down list for dates , which are in format "7/1/2008 12:00:00 AM".
This is defined datetime datatype in sql server. Is there any way to change the date format in dashboard prompt to just "7/1/2008" without doing it in database side.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and regards

Hi... Toony
In Dashboard Prompt, you have option to select i.e. show SQL,
there you write the Logical SQL or Advanced SQL: <em>select cast("timestampCOLUMN" as date) from "PresentationLayerName"</em>
this is simple way without changing anything in rpd side...
And if you want the timestamp column somewhere in some reports you can use that column directly.
If you don't want you need to cast it as DATE.
If your question was answered then put it as answered and mark it as correct... ;)

Changing dynamic profile-parameters in batch

Hello,
want to change dynamic profile parameters (rdisp/btctime) in batch.
I know that i can change this in Transaction RZ11 - but i must change it, depending on our

No option to reorder the Parameters in group Dynamic prompt

I have designed Crystal Report which has an Dynamic prompt like Region / State / City.
Selection of Prompts occurs in Order but the title shows as City/Region/State in Preview.
I even checked example reports provided for Crystal report and seems like all has the same order of display the label.
Its just the label display. I am using Crystal Reports 11.5.10.1263
Easy example, open Report Samples > Feature Examples > Prompting.rpt
Press F5 to prompt for parameter values. First parameter in that report is Country/Region/City.
LOV list proper order, but the Label on top of it shows as City/Country/Region.
Question
Is there any workaround to make it in order?
Is there any option to hide the label.

I think you are referring to Standard Parameters.
I am referring to Dynamic and have to use the Existing one which was created using Business View Manager. After selecting that I can order how it needs to be display in Value Section. Even i select Country / Region / State in the order i want, the prompt displays properly but associated label text displays other way like (City/Country/Region).
in the example report i posted in the post 1, open it up, Expand Parameter Field, Right Click and select Parameter Order
You will see City/Country/Region. If you edit one of the parameter, the order of display would be Country/Region/City.
On Preview Press F5 and in that screen, Verify the label text for this prompt group.. it will show as City/Country/Region but the prompts will be in order like Country / Region / City.

Dynamic Prompt not returning all values it should

I am using Crystal Report 2008 CR Developer with service pack 3.1.
I have a report that has a SQL command statement.
Using just the SQL statement, I get all results correctly (all "Events" show up).
When I use the same report and create a dynamic prompt for the "Events", I get some of the values in the results, but not all of them.
Also, the Events that I do get back in my results change randomly (one time I get Court Trial, the next time I don't).
The u201CEventsu201D field is the 2nd Group in the report.
I also have a date time parameter in the report.
The only thing Iu2019ve found so far related to this is the Max Rowset issue.
I have used the registry fix to set the LOV value to 3000, even though there are only 1644 possible values for that particular field in the database. I changed it for all versions 11, 11.5 & 12.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV "MaxRowsetRecords"="3000"
My understanding of Dynamic Prompts is that each time the report is run, it first looks at all possible values in that field and return those as values to select in the prompt. For example, if there were 1644 values in the table, it would show 1644 values to select in the parameter to be used in the report. Is that regardless of group level or date parameter or if "Save Data with Report" is selected?
Any ideas on why my parameters are not pulling the correct list of values to select for use in the report?

Try connecting to the database directly rather than using a command object.

Dynamic Cascading Parameters - cannot select/enter parameter value

I am rather new working with Crystal Reports and am having problems with Dynamic Cascading Parameters.
I am using CR 2008 SP2, Version 12.2.0.290. Data is from SQL server.
I have a report to print labels for parts in an order. I want to be able to enter the ShipTo ID then the contract number. From there I would like a list of the parts on the contract and be able to select multiple parts to print labels for.
I right clicked on Parameter Fields and chose New. I named it ShipToContractPartNo, Type String, List of Values=Dynamic.
I added the values as follows:
ShipToID - Editable, Allow Multiple=False, Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
...ContractNo - Allow Multiple=False, Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
... ...CustPartNo - Allow Multiple=True Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
I added the Customer Part parameter to the label.
When I test the label the parameter Enter Values window looks good but the drop down for Enter ShipToID does not have any ShipTo ID's to choose from and I cannot enter a value, therefore I cannot continue. I also do not have a Cancel button and always have to end through Task Manager but that's probably a different, unrelated issue.
I have tried this with and without entering Select Expert records.
Could someone please tell me if I have missed a step or if there is a known issue? I searched this site, I looked in CR Help, I referred to the book I have and I googled but have not found this speciic issue.
Thanks in advance for your assistance. Let me know if additional information is necessary.
Jan

OK. I have rejoined/relinked all my tablesas follows (with abbreviated names for ease of reading). The actual SQL is at the end.
..Job_Hdr JOINED to Job_Shipto
.....Job_Shipto JOINED to Job_Line
........Job_Line JOINED to Job_Bin
............Job_Line JOINED to Inv_Mast
When I create a Dynamic Cascading Parameter prompt on just ContractNo (parent - from table Job_Hdr) and ShipTo (child - from table Job_ShipTo) then it gives me list of Contracts to select from and then a list of ShipTo's for that Contract to select from. I place them in the Report Header. I do not add them to the Select Expert. This works great.
Now I need to be able to select the parts necessary from the Contract/ShipTo. When I try to create a Dynamic Cascading Parameter with ContractNo and ShipTo (set up the same as above) and add in ContractPartNumber (from table Job_Bin) to the parameter then my ContractNo and ShipTo parameters no longer work. It gives me only 1 contract number to choose from, which isn't the one I want.
I have tried so many different things and I cannot get the parameters to work when I try to add PartNo into the parameters.
Any suggestions now?

Dynamic prompting with stored procedures XI- urgent

Post Author: moleary77
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
I have a report that has 7 parameters and two stored procedures, I get the dynamic prompting to work wonders as stand alone dynamic parameters, however I need them to be cascading. How can I accomplish this while still using my stored procedures? Is there something I need to change within the stored procedure, I've looked all over in Crystal and I can't seem to figure it out. Please let me know! Below are my stored procs

Since your {?Project}Â parameter is part of a stored procedure, you have to think of it as part of the table.Â Â In reality, it could "change" the result set so Crystal has always prompted them first.Â It's like in math with the order of operation between +-*/.Â
All "added" parameters (like the one you created within the report) must be prompted after the server-based prompts (stored proc).

Problem with date format when ask prompt web-intelligence

Bo XIR2 with 5 SP. Instaled on Windows 2003 with support Russian.
Inside BO every labels, buttons - use russian. But when invoke web-report and Prompt appear there is problem with date format.
Looks like korean format of date 'jj.nn.aaa H:mm:ss'. I see system settings of date in Win .. everything right
What i have to do?
Where i can change format date for bo?

How to calculate the Percent change in a dynamic

hi All,
I'm trying to get the percent increase/change of two dynamic
colums. In my report, the user has a checkbox where he can select two colums to calculate the percent growth.
My DataSet is PilarName, Calification(is a decimal value) and Period (this is a string). I created the Matrix this way:
PilarName [Period]
[PilarName] [Calification]
Which give me these values:
So, now I need to create another column to calculate the percentage change between these two colums. I tried this:
I added a Adjacent column group for Period column and I grouped by the calculated column "ColumnDiff". Add the following expression.
=(SUM(Fields!Calificacion.Value)- Previous(SUM(Fields!Calificacion.Value),"ColumnDiff"))/Previous(SUM(Fields!Calificacion.Value),"ColumnDiff")
After that I get:
I'm getting the sum of the two columns instead.
Any clue about what I'm doing wrong? Please help me, I've been looking for the answer but any solution works for me.
Luis Carlos

Hi Luis,
According to your description, you have a report with different dynamic columns. Now what you want is show your user percentage growth in your matrix report after your user select two of those columns (I think you may use parameter to achieve your “checkbox”
function). Is my understanding correct?
In Reporting Service, we can’t calculate dynamic columns with our build-in arrogation functions. So we need to add custom code into our report, and call those functions which defined in custom code in our expression. We have tested your scenario in our local
environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference.
Go to your Report Properties, add the custom code below into your report:
Dim Shared Num1 As Double
Dim shared Num2 As Double
Public Function GetCalification(Calification as Double,Type as String,Type2 as String)
If Type = Type2 Then
Num1=Calification
Else
Num2=Calification
End If
Return Calification
End Function
Public Function GetPec()
Return (Num2-Num1)/Num1
End function
Create a matrix. Put PilarName into Row field, put Period into Column field. In Data field, put the expression below into the textbox:
=Code.GetCalification(Fields!Calification.Value,Fields!Period.Value,Parameters!Period.Value(0))
In our sample report, we created a parameter (named Period) for selecting two columns. You can replace “Parameters!Period.Value(0)” with your own parameter.
Add an outside column at right (%Growth), put the expression below into the textbox:
=Code.GetPec()
Save and preview. The matrix and result looks like below:

Parameter with Dynamic prompt - bug encountered

I am using CRD XI release 2 (SP2) against an Oracle 10 release 2 database
I have a report fully working with a static parameter
1. But I have an issue when trying to introduce a parameter with dynamic prompts
I have a data source (PointofSale retrieving data from a database view)
I am trying to have the newPointOfSale parameter to prompt the user for values taken out of the PointOfSale source.
I set up the parameter as indicated by the Crystal RD210 Guide.
But when I run the report I am prompted for Server Name(greyed out)/user name/password(something I have never had to do for this report until introducing the dynamic parameter)
In doubt I enter these of the database user I am using as a source for this report
I get a strange error message telling me there is a problem with another datasource on the report.
'Prompting failed with the following error message: 'List of Values failure: fail to get values. [Cause of erro: The table 'DLEX_REPORT.DLEX_REPORT_RETRIEVE.AIRLEGSUMMARY_SUM' could noyt be found. UNKNOWN.RPT]'.
Error source: prompt.ddl Error code 0x8004380D
There seem to be bug with parameters and dynamic list of values in Crystal as other people seem to encounter similar issue
Is there a fix or a workaround?
2. Also I believe this forum allows to escalate bugs with SAP/business objects. Does anyone know how to do this? As this is very obviously a bug....
Thanks
Philippe

I am not sure whether this will solve your problem since you are using a different implementation of Crystal Reports , but I've received the same error using CR XI Developer Release 2 in conjunction with the Crystal Reports Server XI Release 2. My solution was to go into the Business View Manager application and fix the Data Connection object associated with the problematic Dynamic prompt by supplying a user name and password for the data connection object and setting the "Runtime Prompt Mode" property to "Never Prompt". For some dumb reason, the Crystal Reports client will publish the data connection object to the Business Views database without any login credentials associated with it. So after creating such a prompt in a report, you have perform this extra step before running the report the first time. The good news is that if you reference this dynamic prompt in other reports, it will work - so you only need to fix it when it is first created.

Hi Stevan
I'm using JSP.
Ive used request parameters for binding in the where clause {app_cycle=:1 and college_code='MICH'}in application structure i gave ${param.appcycle},${param.collegecode} , which the page is loaded successfully. Dont know how did that error got cleared. Anyway now session is the problem.
I want to use session and not request parameters.
How to achieve this. I dont understand the help give in the query bind parameters tab in application structure file. It says ${MyObject.MyParameter}
in Jsp session is the object. Assuming that i gave ${session.appcyle} where appcycle is the parameter which holds the value. But it didnt work
Kindly help on this.
regards

Accessing Dynamic Prompts information via CR 2008 (or earlier?) RAS API?

I am using the CR 2008 RAS API (but could also use an older API if needed) in Visual Studio 2008. I have both service packs installed.
Any idea how to access information about the settings for dynamic prompts in a report?
I can access the PromptField object with
dataDefController.ParameterFieldController.
GetPromptParameterFields(new PropertyBagClass());
but can't seem to find any options for its dynamic prompt settings (such as fields used to fill the default values, cascading prompt settings, etc.).

Hello, John;
From the Report Application Server .NET SDK Developer Guide:
NOTE: The ReportClientDocument object model does not currently support creating new prompt groups programmatically and saving them to the report. For more information about dynamic cascading parameters and creating prompt groups with the Crystal Reports Designer, see the Crystal Reports User's Guide.
There are no specific API designed for the dynamic cascading parameters - they are just parameters. As such the properties that make them special are not available.
You can get the parameter name and you may be able to determine from the list what would be related:
Country --> Region --> City would be, probably Date would not be.
Since they are created in the Crystal Report designer, the creator could store the information needed in File | Summary Info | Comments and it can be retrieved from the special field Report Comments or the SummaryInfoClass.Comments Property
That is the only suggestion I can think of at this time.
Both options can be achieved from the .NET RAS SDK and the Crystal Reports .NET SDK for version 2008.

Change subgrid view dynamically by Javascript

Hello,
In my current project Client
would like an activities view that shows related activities PLUS some fields from those activities.
Please let me know how to change subgrid view dynamically.
we are trying to get the same results as in the out of the box subgrid where you get the regarding activities but we want some additional fields such as the To from the phone
call activity
I am using below code to achieve this
// JavaScript source code
//Change the Fetch XML and set the subgrid ID
function UpdateSubGrid()
    var SubGrid = document.getElementById("Activities");
    if (SubGrid.readyState != "complete")
        //The subgrid hasn't loaded, wait 1 second and then try again
        setTimeout(UpdateSubGrid, 1000);
        return;
    var fetchXml = "<fetch version='1.0' output-format='xml-platform' mapping='logical' >" +
"<entity name='activitypointer'>" +
   " <attribute name='subject' />" +
    "<attribute name='ownerid' />" +
    "<attribute name='prioritycode' />" +
    "<attribute name='regardingobjectid' />" +
    "<attribute name='activitytypecode' />" +
    "<attribute name='statecode' />" +
    "<attribute name='scheduledstart' />" +
    "<attribute name='scheduledend' />" +
    "<attribute name='activityid' />" +
    "<attribute name='instancetypecode' />" +
    "<attribute name='community' />" +
    "<order attribute='scheduledend' descending='false' />" +
    "<filter type='and'>" +
    " <condition attribute='isregularactivity' operator='eq' value='1' />" +
    "</filter>" +
    "<link-entity name='phonecall' from='activityid' to='activityid' visible='false' link-type='outer' alias='phonecalllinkage'>" +
    " <attribute name='from' />" +
    " <attribute name='to' />" +
    "</link-entity>" +
    "<link-entity name='task' from='activityid' to='activityid' visible='false' link-type='outer' alias='tasklinkage'>" +
    " <attribute name='percentcomplete' />" +
    "</link-entity>" +
    "</entity>" +
"</fetch>";
   // fetchXml
    //Set Fetch XML
    //Inject the new fetchXml..
    SubGrid.control.SetParameter("fetchXml", fetchXml);
    //Force the subgrid to refresh
    SubGrid.control.refresh();
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Pedro,
Thank you for your response.
Actual requirement is Client
would like an activities view that shows related activities PLUS some fields from those activities. I tried out of box this first but it is not achievable because some entities are not available in entities list to select columns.
I want to add coulns from related entity inside grid.
Please let me know how I can achieve this through IFrame, Plugin or ssrs report?
Thanks in advance.
