Combine Multiple Records in Crystal Reports

I have a table with our clients buying preferences, The first three columns is the client ID, Name and Last name and the fourth and fifth columns is the clients buying preference, I have multiple records per client depending on the preference the client has chosen.
ID First Name Surname Type Suburb
5 John Smith House Melrose
6 John Smith House Rosebank
7 John Smith House Kilarney
8 John Smith Cluster Melrose
9 John Smith Cluster Rosebank
10 John Smith Cluster Kilarney
I need to combine the fourth column into one string and the same for the fifth column.
ID First Name Surname Property Type Suburb
5 John Smith House, Cluster Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
I have been getting closer by using the formula in a similar post,  Combine Field from Multiple Records
but still struggling a bit
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much, I was a bit blind there. That works brilliant for one client,
As I was saying yesterday, that was just one client of many in my report, What do I do in the case of multiple clients...
ID     First Name     Surname     Property Type     Suburb
5     John     Smith     House     Melrose
5     John     Smith     House     Rosebank
5     John     Smith     House     Kilarney
5     John     Smith     Townhouse     Melrose
5     John     Smith     Townhouse     Rosebank
5     John     Smith     Townhouse     Kilarney
6     Jack     Black     Cluster     Sandton
6     Jack     Black     Cluster     Houghton
6     Jack     Black     Cluster     Fourways
6     Jack     Black     Appartment     Sandton
6     Jack     Black     Appartment     Houghton
6     Jack     Black     Appartment     Fourways
obviously if I use that formula, with many records the following happens, before I suppress...
ID     First Name     Surname     Property Type     Suburb
5     John     Smith     House     Melrose
5     John     Smith     House     Melrose, Rosebank
5     John     Smith     House     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
5     John     Smith     House, Townhouse      Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
5     John     Smith     House, Townhouse      Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
5     John     Smith     House, Townhouse      Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton, Houghton
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton, Houghton, Fourways
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster, Appartment     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster, Appartment     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton, Houghton
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster, Appartment     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton, Houghton, Fourways
obviously if I have to suppress, NOT ONLASTRECORD
I have the following result...
ID     First Name     Surname     Property Type     Suburb
6     Jack     Black     House, Townhouse, Cluster, Appartment     Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney, Sandton, Houghton, Fourways
Where as the result I desire is
ID     First Name     Surname     Property Type     Suburb
5     John     Smith     House, Townhouse      Melrose, Rosebank, Kilarney
6     Jack     Black     Cluster, Appartment     Sandton, Houghton, Fourways
Is there anything I can do to get this result?

  • Dynamic Sorting on Multiple filed in Crystal report 2008

    Hi
      I am using Crystal report 2008 sp3 full build with hotfix 3.3 along with ASP.NET 2.0
      I have implimented the multi filed sorting using the record sort export and setting the sort order in the report designer.
    Now my requirement is such that i would like to have dynamic sorting on multiple fileds while report is displayed in the UI.
    Means suppose i have a report with Customer region,name,city,rating,status etc.
    Now by using the sort control  i would like to have the functionality in such a way that if user
    a)  first sorts on the region then the records should be first sorted by region
    b)  then sorts on the city then the records should be sorted first by region then by city
    c) now sorts on the  rating then the records should be sorted first by region ,second by city and then by rating
    Now other user may do
    a) first sorts on the rating then the records should be first sorted by rating
    b)  then sorts on the status then the records should be sorted first by rating then by status
    c) now user sorts on the  region then the records should be sorted first by rating,second by status and then by region
    and so on the sorting criteria changes from user to user through the UI.
    Is there any way to achieve the dynamic kind of sorting with Crytsal report 2008 where we can set the order of the fileds at sorting in UI dynamically .The sorting order of the fields are not known at the time of design of the report and its completely depends on the user's need.
    Please let me know if you require any information on the same.
    Regards,
    smitha

    Hello,
       Good Day!
       Thanks for your answer.
       Could you please explain me in detail how to achieve this functionality?
       Do i need to create a static parameter?
       I  get my data set through the command option in crystal report.So i think i need to go by formula in the report.
       i am just putting down the steps to follow.Please correct me if i am wrong.
      step1 :Create s static parameter with the name SORT.
    step2: create the formula as you have mentioned like     
        (IF {?Sort}='Vendor Number' THEN {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.Vendor_Key}& " "& {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.ap_remt_key}
        & " " & {@date}
       else
        IF {?Sort}='Invoice Number' THEN {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.ap_vchr_invno}& " " & {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.Vendor_Key}&
        " " &{@date}
       else
       IF {?Sort}='Invoice Amount' THEN {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.ap_vchr_amtc}& " " & {Pr_Voucher_Status;1.Vendor_Key}&
         " " &{@date})
        I could not  understand what this formula is really doing .
        Could you please tell me what the following names indicates? :
                  Pr_Voucher_Status :- Table/Command name ??
                  Vendor Number,Invoice Number etc.. :-  ??
                 Vendor_Key,ap_vchr_invno,ap_vchr_amtc .. :-  Filed names ??
                 use of 1.{} :- ??                              
    step3: place the below formula in the page header  to display the sort order
        (if {?SORT}='Vendor Number' then "Vendor Number, Remit To, Invoice Date"
              else if {?SORT}='Invoice Number' then "Invoice Number, Vendor Number, Invoice Date"
              else if {?SORT}='Invoice Amount' then "Invoice Amount, Vendor Number, Invoice Date") .
    Note:-My report does not have grouping.Do i need to have grouping?
    in this case how the sort control will work  ?
    As i have mentioned in the first post the order of sorting is completely depends on the user's perspective .
    The report is used by the whole organization ..
    i mean the people with different roles like Manger,Team leads,modul leads,developers ,testers etc..
    the usage of report varies according to the roles so the sort order also.

  • Combining multiple records into a single record (View)

    Okay so here is my scenerio:
    There is a table I have made that details SQL jobs and the various details about them. What i wan't to do is make a view with specific logic implemented. Fields that will be taken across to this view will be: LastRunDate, LastRunTime and Step_Status.
    JobName will also be used to define the logic but will not be a column in itself.
    What i wan't is an additional column using this logic, called 'DataSet'. For each Dataset there are multiple jobs that are unique to it, so there are multiple records being brought over from the table to view for one particular dataset. For example,
    for 'ExampleDataSet' there are three jobs, i wan't it so these jobs are combined and named as 'ExampleDataSet' under a calculated column called 'Dataset'. For the following fields i would like it so that LastRunDate and LastRunTime are the time in whichever
    job was last to be intitiated is the date and time set. For Step_Status, there are three possible results, 'Running', 'Failed' or 'Succeeded'. If any of the three jobs are 'Running', then 'Running'. If neither are running yet one has failed then 'Failed'.
    Only when all three have succeeded should it then be set to 'Succeeded'.
    I hope i have made that clear enough, please feel free to ask any questions if not. I am relatively new to SQL but i thought to at least try least try (I knew it wouldn't work) and it didn't work. But it may give you a better idea of
    what i wan't:
    CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vw_DataAvailabilityAnalysts] AS
    SELECT CASE
    WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') and step_status='Running' THEN 'Running'
    WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') and step_status='Failed' THEN 'Failed'
    WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3) and step_status='Succeeded' THEN 'Succeeded'
    END as StatusCheck,
    CASE WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') THEN 'ExampleDataSet'
    END as DATASET,
    LastRunDate,
    lastruntime,
    step_status,
    FROM [CDS_Common].[dbo].[DataAvailability]
    Many Thanks,
    Plain_Clueless
    Plain_Clueless

    Okay so here is what my table looks like (Simplified). There are four columns and the data within is extracted via a Stored Procedure.
    JobName
    LastRunDate
    LastRunTime
    Step_Status
    Job1
    11/06/2014
    09:30:00
    Succeeded
    Job1
    10/06/2014
    09:37:20
    Succeeded
    Job2
    11/06/2014
    04:05:00
    Succeeded
    Job1
    09/06/2014
    02:17:41
    Succeeded
    As you can see there are 3 jobs which are all 'Job1'. This jobs are obviously different within the table however this represents that they are jobs which all update the same DataSet within our local warehouse. Whereas Job2 updates a different dataset alltogether.
    I wan't to create a view which will alagmate the jobs that are of the same DataSet, which will disclude the column JobName but would create a whole new column that looks like this:
    DataSet
    LastRunDate
    LastRunTime
    Step_Status
    DataSet2
    11/06/2014
    04:05:00
    Succeeded
    DataSet1
    11/06/2014
    09:30:00
    Succeeded
    Bascically what this shows you is all the Job 1's combined so they are one record, Amaglamated. The last time any of these jobs were run is the LastRunDate & LastRunTime, which was the first record in the first table provided. Again for Step_Status,
    there are three possible results, 'Running', 'Failed' or 'Succeeded'. If any of the three jobs are 'Running', then 'Running' (Absolute). If none of the three jobs are running yet one has failed then 'Failed'. If one has failed yet another is also running then
    'Running'.Only when all three have succeeded should it then be set to 'Succeeded'. (This last bit isn't as important).
    Hope this clears it up a bit,

  • Print multiple copies in Crystal Report

    Hi All,
    I have created layouts with Crystal 2008 . I need to print first copy as original , second as duplicate and the third as triplicate . I know it is possible using PLD but i need it in CR. Is there any work-around for this problem ? I am using SAP Business One 8.8 PL 10 , Crystal Reports Basic 2008 and SQL Server 2008.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards
    ARUN

    Hi Arun
    Create a view which has a record for each copy and the docentry.  I tested using the view below but it could easily be extended to include the object type and be useful for all documents.
    CREATE VIEW [dbo].[Test_Copy]
    AS
    select 1 as 'CopyNo',
    'Original' AS 'CopyDesc',
    DocEntry AS 'InvDocentry'
    from oinv
    union
    select 2 as 'CopyNo',
    'Duplicate' AS 'CopyDesc',
    DocEntry AS 'InvDocentry'
    from oinv
    union
    select 3 as 'CopyNo',
    'Triplicate' AS 'CopyDesc',
    DocEntry AS 'InvDocentry'
    from oinv
    Add this view to your layout and inner join to docentry of the OINV table
    Add the copy number as the main group level, before the document etc.
    You will then need to fiddle around setting the current page header details into the group 1 header and sort the paging out but you will get 3 copies.
    Hope this helps

  • Multiple instances of Crystal Reports Viewer possible in WPF?

    Hi, I've dragged and dropped three Crystal Reports Viewer controls on my WPF application. The goal is to be able to select up to 3 reports from a listbox and click run to generate the reports simultaneously. When I select just one report, it works fine. However when I select multiple reports it throws errors (object not found, etc). It seems there is a problem with multiple threads. Is it possible to have multiple instances of the Crystal Report Viewer display reports simultaneously? I am using version 13.0.9.1312 from the link below along with VS2013 C# WPF.
    SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
    Thanks,
    Syed

    I was able to quickly cobble together a two viewer app that looks like this:
    The code is like this:
    Public Sub New()
            ' This call is required by the designer.
            InitializeComponent()
            ' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.
            Dim crReportDocument As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
            crReportDocument.Load("C:\tests\formulas.rpt")
            CrystalReportsViewer1.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument
            Dim crReportDocument2 As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
            crReportDocument2.Load("C:\tests\report1.rpt")
            CrystalReportsViewer2.ViewerCore.ReportSource = crReportDocument2
        End Sub
    For more details see the document WPF Project Using the Crystal Reports WPF Viewer in 8 Easy Steps
    Now a couple of things to keep in mind;
    1) The report engine is based on 3 Concurrent Processor License (CPL) model. Meaning you can process at most three reports at the same time. In my test, doing the above code for four reports worked, but the reports are very, very simple - and with saved data. What a "real" world reports will do, I am not sure. I do know that in a web app, the reports are queued up until one report is done and thus a CPL is freed up. You will also need to keep in mind any database connection limits, etc.
    2) There is also a Print Job limit. This by default is set to 75. In a nutshell, almost anything done with a report is a Print Job. E.g.; paging, zooming, drilling, searching, etc., etc. In addition subreports are considered to be Print Jobs. Thus a report with one subreport in a detail section that returns a thousand rows of data and therefore running 1000 subreports will error out.
    You can read more about Print Job limits here:

  • Load Multiple Images in Crystal Report using Paths

    Hi Guys,
    I am currently in need of developing a new requirement for our company's client. We have to load multiple images using just link in Crystal Report. Let's say that the images are stored in a folder (e.g., C:\Datafolder\Images\) and i have to fetch two images to show in crystal report (say, C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval1 and C:\Datafolder\Images\imageval2). These are actually dynamically created and therefore the number of images are not known and so i have to iterate through the list of image links.
    Is it possible using merely crystal report and how?. If not, can I do it using Crystal Report SDK?. Any help will be appreciated. Please take note that we're also using C# in developing our software applications.
    Thanks and best regards.

  • JRC - multiple tables in crystal report

    Post Author: Crystal Wong
    CA Forum: JAVA
    Hi, I am using the Java Reporting component of Crystal Report XI R2 SP2. I encounter error when pushing 2 Java resultset to a report as a datasource, like the code belows, ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = new ReportClientDocument();          reportClientDoc.open(REPORT_NAME, 0); String query1 = "SELECT COLUMN1, COLUMN2 FROM TABLE1" ;ResultSet resultSet1 = getResultSetFromQuery(query1, ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE); String tableAlias1 = reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().getDatabase().getTables().getTable(0).getAlias();reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(resultSet1, tableAlias1 , tableAlias1); String query1 = "SELECT COLUMN1, COLUMN2 FROM TABLE2" ;ResultSet resultSet2 = getResultSetFromQuery(query2, ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE);String tableAlias2 = reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().getDatabase().getTables().getTable(1).getAlias();reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(resultSet2, tableAlias2 , tableAlias2); I wanna to ask, Does JRC support multiple tables in a report with the approach suggested above? Thanks a lot!

  • Out of memory exception while reading the records in crystal report

    hi..
    im using sap crystal report version 13.0.2000.0.
    i've 27,000 records to be printed but when i run my application
    the exception error is displayed "Out Of Memory"..
    i've my appliation in VS2010 and OS is server 64bit
    and 4GB RAM..
    i dont know what to do ...

    Ok. So this is a brand new report created in CRVS2010(?).
    I'd like you to go to the database menu and select "Set Data Source Location". Expand the "Poperties" node and tell me what you see next to "Database Type"
    Also, I've also got a bit of a confusion on my part. In the inital post you say:
    i've 27,000 records to be printed but when i run my application
    the exception error is displayed "Out Of Memory"..
    But a bit later on you say:
    if there are 8000 records it'll take around 2 minutes
    to display the records..
    but there are 27000 records it will take more
    amount of time and the browser hangsup..
    So, is the issue when printing, or viewing?

  • Get entire record from Crystal report viewer

    Hi,
    I'm using Crystal 2008 .Net components to view reports from within an application.
    I would like to write a custom drill down event so that users can link back from a record on the report they are previewing to somewhere else in the application. In order to do this I need access to the whole record's data for the object that they clicked on.
    It's not really much good if I just have the value, name and table of the field they clicked on, since it is probably not a unique value within that table, and therefore I couldn't drill back to the specific record they selected. Also, if it's not a database field in the first place then I have no way of going anywhere. But if I can get the whole record they are on then I'll already know which primary key field I want, and I could then get the appropriate value from the record.
    Is this possible?
    Richard

    You can get at specific objects using events,  but not a whole record.
    Can't think of any way of doign this at all...

  • Dynamic Parameter only showing 1000 records when Crystal report is run.

    I have created a crystal report using ODBC access to a table that has 3000 records.  I created a dynamic parameter to pull a list of all the Customer ID's in a customer table and the parameter will only show the 1st 1000 records.  In addition I cannot type in the customer ID that I would like.  Version of Crystal - Crystal 11.

    Oh, darn. So sorry. Looks like I hyperlinked the wrong URL (You'd think I got that down by now...). Anyhow here is the correct link:
    1218588 - How to increase the number of values in a dynamic parameter list in Crystal Reports?
    And in case the link does not work, or I goofed again, here is a copy of the resolution:
    Resolution
    CAUTION
    The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall the Microsoft Windows operating system. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk. For information on how to edit the registry key, view the 'Changing Keys and Values' online Help topic in the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe). It is strongly recommended that you make a backup copy of the registry files before you edit the registry.
    To increase the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list of values, set the registry key: MaxRowsetRecords, to a value greater than 1,000.
    Open the Microsoft Registry Editor, and navigate to the path corresponding to the version of Crystal Reports used:
    Crystal Reports XI:
    -  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV

       But the rest of the registry path is the same.
    Add the String value: MaxRowsetRecords
    Set the value of: MaxRowsetRecords to the maximum number of values to display in the List of Values.
    For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a dynamic cascading parameter.
    IMPRTANT NOTES:
    - The higher the number of values is, the longer it will take the see the dynamic parameter prompt screen. In brief, it impact the performance.
    - The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
    After making changes to the registry, close and reopen Crystal Reports, or restart the Crystal Reports services for the BusinessObjects platforms.

  • Updating the previously updated records in Crystal Reports

    Hi All,
         Well I am currently working on Crystal report 11. The issue that I am facing is in regard to the already updated row's record.
    In one of my reports I am fetching data from the database which is received by the Crystal Report's one by one as in the normal cases it is being done. For each record some manipulation is done and then it is printed for the user's viewing.
    The problem that I am facing can be better be explained while taking an example.
    Lets suppose, I have 100 rows of records in the database table which I have to show to the user after modifying any row of record if necessary. And in each row of record there are suppose 10 columns. Now in the data in the 10th column of the row is dependent on the any xth row of record which is a variable value which can be 5th row, 19th row or even 100th row.
          Now when I receive 1st row I manipulate it if required and print it, then I receive 2nd row and print in the same fashion, n so on. Now in the 15th row I receive some data by which I have to modify the 10th column of the 2nd row which I had previously modified and printed. This dependency could be for any row depending upon the kind of data the record brings.
         Is there any way to handle these kind of cases at the Crystal Report end side. If you need any further clarification in regard to this or any more information then please do let me know.

    To be honest, I'm not really following the logic you need to implement.  However, if you base your report on an SQL Command, you can do all of the logic there.  (It is functionally equivalent to a database Stored Procedure.)  You can use a temporary table if you don't have a permanent one to store the modified data.  At the end of the command, return the already-modified data from the temp table.
    One other possibility might be to read the data into arrays, perform the logic on the array data, then print.  You may run into array size issues (among other things), though...
    HTH,

  • Multiple instances of crystal report

    I have a report with 40 instances in infoview. Wherever we need to chage in the report level, I have to reschedule all the 40 instances, which is tedious. In BO, do they have anything, so that the instances sholud point the new report?
    Thanks,
    Sagarika.

    We have a report with 5 instances every day, i have never made a change to a instance if there are changes in the CR report.
    Just save the report without changing the ID, CUID, name or anything. It should be fine.
    Thanks. MAT.

    This is one of the most commonly asked question on this forum. Search for Pivot queries. It is possible in SQL only if we know the maximum number of values for any group (x,y group in this case has 3 values). If we do not know this, it has to be a PLSQL solution. Hope this helps.

  • Using crystal reports to generate invoices

    Post Author: samme
    CA Forum: General
    I'm writing a report for a client who wants to print multiple invoices using crystal reports.  The invoice needs to sort in date order, one date and information associated with that date on each page.  Each page has a subtotal since multiple items/services are linked ot one date.  The last page of the invoice needs to have the total and should at the bottom of the page with the last subtotal.  Not onlastrecord does not work because if the user prints multiple invoices, crystal doesn't see the "last record" until the last record of the last invoice.
    The client wants the normal invoice information on the first page of the invoice:  Company Logo, Customer Address, Company Info, Invoice #, Date, etc. as well as the column headers - quantity, unit of measure, price, etc.
    On all other pages of the invoice, the client wants, the company logo, the invoice # and the column headers.
    I have the report grouped by invoice number and then by a date formula.  I cannot seem to get where I need to be with this invoice and have been working on it for some time.  Can anyone give me some direction please..... 
    Thanks in advance!

    I do understand, I'm not a programmer either :-(
    the company who wrote report builder is Digital Metaphors, they have a
    very good
    training application and additional detailed information of how to
    write
    reports.
    The CIM schema is I agree Cr** (well not easy) and without the detail
    that
    Novell provide it doesn't work.
    I hope that a friend of mine is going to provide the compromise that
    you and I
    are looking for. Namely the ability to create the SQL queries that
    ART can
    make, with a simple report system. Keep an eye on caledonia.net for
    an
    announcement for ART4 (Derived from but unrelated to Salford
    Software's
    product) :-)

  • Crystal Report Dynamic connection issue ORA-04043 Database Vendor Code 4043

    HI All,
    Ii am getting dynamic connection issue with Crystal Report 2008 and Business View Manager, i have Oracle database,
    i have done following steps
    1 Creating Dynamic Connection (including two connection XDC & YDC)
    2. Creating Data Foundation (Common object available in both connection ie. stored procedure)
    3. Creating Business View (with selected number of elements in business element, like firsta name, lastname)
    I have verified database connectivity from Business view manager, both the connection are working fine bringing different number of rows from two different schemas (different schema but same objects in two schemas)
    4. Database connectivity to different database schemas
    5. Connectivity from Crystal Report (done the connectivity from the repository to business view )
    6. Report Connectivity with first schema shows records
    7 Report Connectivity with second schemas shows error
    as follows Failed to retrive data from the database & on clicking of detail i get following error
    Crystal Reports
    Database Connector Error: 'ORA-04043: object HR.EXCEPTION_REPORT_SUB1_PROC [Database Vendor Code: 4043 ]'
    Q first of all i need to know if dynamic connection using business view manager and crystal report technically possible or not, if yes then please let me know the solution, since we did verified with SQL database and ite work with two different database.
    Q if not possible then are there any options to resolve dynamic deployment of crystal report over multiple schemas with crystal report 2008
    Any help or suggestion will be appriciated, hope some one might have got similar issue
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,

    Please suggest!
