Conditional Suppress in BW report

Dear all expert,
I had the following situation. i had created 2 selection in the columns which is "last month visits", where the details of selection is KF - "number of activities" and Cal. year/Month - "Last Month". another selection is "Current Month visits", where the details of selection is KF - "Number of activities" and Cal. year / month - "Current Calendar Month".
But the report i just want to show the overall result "Last Month Visits" instead of the details while for the "Current Month visits" i will need to show the details and overall result.
How can i suppress the details of the "Last Month visits" columns but showing only the overall result?
Can i change the customize the word "overall result" to others title as i wanted?
Thank You.

Hi Alexfooyk,
Could you please elaborate on what are the dimensions for this report?
Because, as I see it if you have created 2 key figure selections in the columns on the key figure: 'No of activities'. One selection is restricted to 'Last Month' variable of 'Calendar Month' and another key figure is to 'Current Month' variable on 'Calendar Month'.
If I try to replicate this and create a query, I'll only see 2 key figures on my report - No of activities aggregated as per the Calendar Month.
Please elaborate the requirement so that I can try to provide some solution.
Regards,
Sri.

Condition suppression in crystal reports

I need help in conditional suppression of data in a crystal report I have created. It is hard to explain so I will show you with example data that has no reference to real data.
Here is an example of non suppressed data in two columns.
Column A     Column B
****               a1
****               a2
****               a3
####             a2
!!!!                 a1
%%%%        a5
I need to be able to conditionally suppress the above example to show all records in Column B where the value in column A is the same and one row of Column be has the entry of a1. The data should look like the following after the conditional suppression.
Column A     Column B
****               a1
****               a2
****               a3
!!!!                 a1
If you compare the two examples you should be able to follow what I am after. You can see that the following entries in column A, **** and !!!! also have the entry a1 in column B. For this reason I want them returned. I also want all other values returned where this is seen. You can see that the second example of data has three records in Column B where the entry in Column A is the same and it has a1 in column B at least once.
I hope you can understand this, it was very hard to explain. Let me know if I can offer any further information.

There is a way to do this, but it's going to be a bit tricky. Assuming that both columns come from the same table, which I'll call "MyTable", here's what you'll need to do:
1. Add a second copy of "MyTable" to the report. Crystal will warn you that the table is already in the report and ask if you want to "alias" it, at which point it will be added to the report as "MyTable_1".
2. Link FROM MyTable TO MyTable_1 on ColumnA (as well as any other required fields if necessary).
3. In the Select Expert, add the following to the selection criteria:
{MyTable.ColumnA} = "a1"
4. In the report, use the ColumnA and ColumnB fields from MyTable_1.

Conditional Suppression - No Data

I am working with Conditional Suppression via Studio (reporting).
I am trying to suppress a formula column/row where there is no data (the column is dividing the value by 12). I received #ERROR since the column formula cannot divide "no data by 12.
Any suggestions?

Hi
One of the options in the Advanced Suppression is to suppress if the data value is 'ERROR' so could you use this. Alternatively put the advanced suppression on the column that contains the 'No Data' value rather than on the one containing the formula.
Hope this helps

Hyperion Financial Report Conditional Suppression

Hi All,
In HFR ......I have a requirement.....
IN Rows there are 2 DIMS : Vendors:Level_0,1,2 & Market:Level_0...
The requirment is that the report should show the hierarchy of Vendors Dimension ONLY if we have data for Level_0 Vendors & Level_0 Market combination.....
So if the data doesnt exist for Level_0 Vendors & Level_0 Market combination ; the hierarchy of vendors: Level_1 & level_2 with Market:Level_0 should NOT be visible in the report.
I ve taken Vendors:Level_0,1,2 & Market:Level_0 ( I ve cherry picked a single Level_0 market member for a row) in a row and applied the COnditional suppression : *( Level vendors=0 AND Level market=0) AND Current Row Value =0.*
The condition works good when there in nodata for Vendors:Level_0,1,2 ,...........But when there is data for Vendors:Level_1,2 ...they are visible in report which is NOT desired.......how can i suppress these Vendors:Level_1,2 members
Thanks

If level 1, 2 have more than one child and has data, this is difficult to achieve.

Conditional Suppression error in Financial Reporting

Hello all,
I'm having trouble with the conditional suppression. I have a Financial Reporting report that shows the top 10 customers. The Customer Dimension are the rows. The First column contains the Sales. So, I have a 2nd column that uses the rank function. I then use conditional suppression to suppress the rows where the value in the rank column exceeds 10. I have the Organization Dimension as a Page dimension using a prompt. If I run the report with the default prompt value ( or just select 1 different member from the prompt) , the report works perfectly. However, if I select multiple members from the prompt and run the report, only the rows on the first page get suppressed. The rows on the subsequent pages (for the other selected Organization dimension members from the prompt) do not get suppressed. Does anyone have a workaround for this problem? Please let me know.
thanks,
Vince Kelly

In the formatting section, you can define the negative formatting that is how it should be displayed.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
aly

Financial reports - Conditional suppression.

Hi
Grid1 & grid2===Col's=Months
In HFReport there r 2 grids . In Grid1 Row 5 references Formulae Row Grid2.Row[10]===>> calculates division of 4 Rows of Grid2....
Grid2.Row[10] ...on this row im using Conditional suppression to suppress the cells if any of the values in 4 calculating Rows is missing......This works perfect..
But as this Grid2.Row[10] is referenced by Grid1.Row[5]..... the conditional suppression is not carried to Grid1.
Th values for the missing months is showing in Grid1.Row[5] which is wrong values as the division is based on 4 rows..
1. Can we use conditional suppression on Grid1.Row[5]..... based on grid2 Rows.
2.How can we carry the conditional suppression of Grid2.Row[10] to Grid1.Row[5]
Thanks

Data or suppression can be carried over from grid-1 to another grid-2 only when data in the grid-1 is not expanding into multiple rows/columns.
Some how you need to get the data in a single grid if that is the case.
Thanks and regards,

Problem using a conditional suppress in a cross-tab ?

is there a problem using a conditional suppress in a cross-tab on a row or summarized field in crystal XI?
I am using the following conditional suppress on a summarized field and its rows
         If {@SortCode}=4 then true;
Sortcode is a group sorting formula field
the summarized field is a formula field as well.
All of the summarized fields are suppressed although the cross- tab performs correctly on @Sortcode and the summarized field when not using the condition
it seems to me to be a reporting flow issue although i've included "whileprintingrecords" and "evaluateafter" with no success.
i have also moved the cross-tab from the report header to group header and applied a conditional suppress on the group header through section expert.
this supresses the group i dont want but includes grand totals for each group and also varys the number of columns
i can't filter on sortcode because one of the grand total calculations requires those records and a subreport or second cross-tab does not contain the same number of columns
the cross-tab is necessary as a client may have columns spanning one to many pages
thanks for your help

Hi I have a similar problem,
I have an clock in solution, where i have some dates with data such as, various entries for a date eg, 01/11/2010 1hr, 01/11/2010 3 hrs etc, 03/11/2010 2hrs , 05/11/2010 4.5hrs, 05/11/2010 4 hrs so i need total for each day and highlight only those days, where total is less than 4.5, including days which donu2019t have records eg 02/11/2010 & 04/11/2010, I summarise in totals using a cross tab, to get summarised output for each day as,
            Totals
01/11/2010    4
03/11/2010    2
05/11/2010    8.5
in order to get the dates which didnu2019t have records, i added a dataset from Excel spreadsheet where i just have a sequential dates for the year , and use record selection to select only those dates in range which i need to display, so the result i get
01/11/2010    4
02/11/2010    0
03/11/2010    2
04/11/2010    0
05/11/2010    8.5
so far so good, all using cross tab, now i want to suppress rows which have total > 4.5 so the result should be
01/11/2010    4
02/11/2010    0
03/11/2010    2
04/11/2010    0
How can i do that?

Conditional suppression using substitution variable in Hyperion financial r

Hi all,
Is there a way that I can suppress a column using substitution variable in hyperion financial reporting?
For eg, i want to suppress the column if the value of the substitution variable curr_mnth = jun.
Is there a way to do this? In conditional suprression dialog box, I dont find this option.
Please suggest.
Your response is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sirisha.

Hi Sirisha
In my earlier reply I think I may have mislead you as I thought that you could set the member name equal to that in a row/column and I've managed to get into a HFR studio session this morning and realised that the conditional suppression only allows you to suppress where member name = 'XXX' (specific text) so that doesn;t meet your requirement.
Different people will have different ways of achieving what you want and everyones requirements are different. If it helps my preferred way of conditionally suppressing periodic data (for Planning/Essbase) is to add a dynamic calc account member called 'TP-Index' into the database, set up a formula so that each period returns a numeric value from 1 to 12 to match the fiscal/calendar year as required.
Then in reporting bring the account and period dimensions into rows/columns so that you are able to retrieve data for the TP-Index account and the period as defined in your substitution variable. You can then choose how the suppression works based on a numeric value, commonly you may want to suppress if greater than, e.g. you have a multi-period report where your actual data is to June so you want to suppress everything from July onwards.
I'm sure that a similar thing could be achieved in HFM as well if that is your underlying system instead of Essbase.
Does that help?

XI Page Header conditional suppression not exporting to editable RTF

I have a report that I don't want the page header to print on the first page (using the report header instead). It works great exporting to everything except editable RTF.
If i have a suppression condition on the page header, it doesn't print on any of the pages on the rtf. If I have no suppression, it prints on each page (including the first). Is this 'by design'? Is there a work around? Is it slated for a future enhancement? Bug Fix? I can't find any information on this situation. I'm assuming it's similar to the 'Page # of #' problem.
The customer insists on an editable RTF... as they want to edit it before sending it out to their customers!
If anyone has any ideas, knowledge, workarounds... I'd love to hear about it! Thanks!
Belinda

Here is a workaround that I just tried and it works:
1. Create a "FakeGroup" formula:
WhileReadingRecords;
2. Insert Croup by "FakeGroup" formula
3. Move it to the top grouping level
4. Go to Options in Group Expert and click Repeat Group Header On Each Page
5. Go to Section Expert and conditionally suppress Group Header 1 (onfirstrecord)
6. Move all content of your Page Header to Group Header1
7. Suppress Page Header

FR Conditional Suppression on Formula Column

If I have 2 columns of data and 1 formula column taking the difference.
Row 1 is Base of Custom1, with conditional suppression on formula column if difference is <$5m
Row 3 is Total custom1
Row 2 is Other (ie [3] - [1].sum)
Row 1 suppresses fine, but row 2 returns zero as [1].sum is apparantly prcessed before the conditional suppression.
I've tried this before with suppression on Data columns and it worked fine. Is there a solution to this?

For best practice you should put any calculated rows as the last row, in your example I suggest you move the row 2 (the calculation row [3] - [1].sum) below row 3.
FR seems to calculate each row in turn, moving down the report - therefore it can miss calculations which reference other values or calculations down the sheet.

On demand subreport conditionally different formats of reports to be displayed

Hi I have a requirement where i will be displaying the main report. When i click on one field whose values are "USA" or "UK". If i click on USA then i shld get a different report with different format for eg: usa1.rpt and if i click on UK values then i shld get UK1.rpt report. so total there are three reports. I am working on with. Please help me in doing such critical report.

ideally you would make one subreport which has sections for UK, US etc..(probably reportheaderA and reportHeaderB - add in as necessary) and those sections would be conditionally suppressed based on the value in the main report (link a subreport parameter to the field value).
Another option:
step 1.Â add another details section. DetailsA if for UK, details B is for USA.Â AddÂ your fields into both sections.Â Add the relevant subreport to each section.
step2. conditionally suppress the UK section if the country = "USA" and vice versa.
Good lcuk... luck, even.

Aborting a report or suppress the whole report

Is there any way I can abort a report, or suppress the whole report, depending on some condition detected during processing? Preferably with a message, but that's not essential.
Several of my reports can only be run for the user launching the report, but I also want to allow 'proxies' to run the report - ie users who can run the report for one or more other users - and superusers who can run it for anyone. The reports are called from VB/NET but I have no control over the calling software except for parameters and the record selection text.
I have a simple 'proxy' table which defines both the proxies and the superusers. I can check this in a subreport but that fires after the main query, so I'm stymied. If I could abort or suppress the report at that stage, I could prevent unauthorised users accessing the report.
I could conditionally suppress all the sections, but this means putting a condition on each section, which would be a pain (these are complex reports, sometimes very complex, with subreports).
I could probably also use a SQL query but I'd rather avoid that complexity too.
I'm using CR10.
Any ideas?

As I indicated in my original post, I'm trying to find some relatively simple way to suppress most or all of the main report as a result of running a subreport.
I can't put the main report in a subreport because the main report already has subreports, in some cases 20 or more.
I could suppress the main report sections on the basis of a shared variable, but this is a messy solution in my mind.
I could bomb the report by forcing an error in the subreport (eg div by zero), but the result would be confusing for users. If I could define the error message this would be OK, but apparently that's not possible either.
It appears you may have answered the question, ie that there's not easy way to do this.

Conditional Link on Interactive Report

I'm trying to make the link column conditional on an interactive report. That is, I only want the pencil icon on the rows which have a field that is greater than 30. So, assume my query says:
select DEPT_ID, USER_LEVEL
from my_table;
I only want the link icon to appear on rows that have USER_LEVEL > 30. I tried (unsuccessfully) to get this to work by adding a condition of "Expression1 = Expression2", and I used the #USER_LEVEL# substitution string. (Note: I know this would be exactly what I want because I want the condition to be on all values > 30, but I couldn't even get this to work when I put #USER_LEVEL# in Expression1 and "30" in Expression2 and looked at the records that had a USER_LEVEL value of exactly 30).
In the end, I had to create a much more complex query like this...
select
case
when USER_LEVEL >= 30 then
'<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:21:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::P2_DEPT_ID:' || DEPT_ID || "><img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#menu/pencil16x16.gif" alt="Edit" /></a>'
else ' '
end as edit_icon,
DEPT_ID, USER_LEVEL
from my_table;
This doesn't seem right to me. Can someone confirm that I'm doing this the right way?

Hi -
It really bugs me this forum has such a problem with code examples, so for a while at least I posted quick example on Google:
[Conditional Column|http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dd2tkvv6_212dbzw2ftq]
Not to complicate too much, but if you wanted to not have empty column except one row, you could of course apply this trick to the column that actually holds the user name in your table... in other words, the user could click right on their own name to go to edit screen, but every other user name but theirs would not be a hyperlink. But that is as they say an exercise for the reader :)
Good luck.

Removing extra space in page footer after conditional suppression

Hi,
I have two page footers. One of them is conditionally suppressed, the other is always present. When the conditionally suppressed page footer is present, the other footer appears above it. But when the conditionally suppressed page footer is being suppressed, the other footer should occupy the bottom of the page. Instead, it appears that, despite the suppression of the page footer, there is still space reserved at the bottom of the page for it. Any ideas on how to resolve this?
Thank you.
Edited by: plynch on Dec 29, 2011 9:50 PM

Hi,
So, you have a 'PageFooter a' and 'PageFooter b'. The conditional suppression logic has been applied on Footer b. When Footer b is suppressed, you wish to 'push' the Footer a section down to where Footer b would appear?
Well, when Footer a is suppressed, Footer b takes its place, however it is not the same when the last Page Footer section is suppressed as there is nothing that can take its place and Footer a is already showing up where it should be!

Printing Procurement Terms and Conditions in custom BIP report

We are developing a custom BIP report for printing Purchase Agreements. We created new Data model and a new report template that matches the customer's requirements. However, we are not able to print the Terms and conditions in this custom report.
The custom report is placed in the Shared Folders/Custom/Procurement/Purchasing folder and we included the following code at the beginning of the custom report template -
<?import: xdoxsl:///Procurement/Purchasing/prc_po_terms_and_conditions_sub.xsb?loc=${_XDOLOCALE}?>
And at the end, where we want to print the Terms and Conditions, the following code -
<xsl:apply-templates select=".//TermsAndConditions"/>
But the Terms and conditions are not printed. Can someone please help out and point to me where the mistake is?
Thanks
Lakshmi

I am not an expert on BIP and will ask a colleague to comment. Took a look at the documentation and noticed some small differences, not sure if these have any impact, but you could try them while waiting to triage the issue:
The documentation does not have space in the import statement i.e. "import:xdoxsl" while your example has a space "import: xdoxsl"
To render the content the documentation states to use "<?call-template:template_name?>"
