I have installed trail versions of Crystal reports 2008 (Version 12.2.0.290-CR developer) and Installed SAP BO integration kit XI.3.0 on my PC
I could connect to SAP BW System through OLAP connection.But for connecting to SAP R/3 no option is there is the Database expert of of crystal reports-2008.Please let me know where I am I going wrong I don't have BOE XI.3.0 or EDGE3.1 on my system,but for Demo I need to show only connection to SAP R/3 not BW
any Idea where I can connect SAP R/3 to Crystal reports-2008 using Data base expert of CR-2008 without BOE ...??
Prasad

Hi BRK,
Thanks a lot for the quick reply.Under the Database Expert I can
two folders .
1.My Connections
2.Create new connections
Under this I can see More data-sources folder but in that there is no SAP table,Infoset or FM available.
I can see other folders like OLAP,ODBC,OLEDB,Outlook,Universes,Repository etc I am not sure where it is going wrong.

Hi,
Thanks for your response. Please see below answers to your question:
When you say that you are not able to connect from Word Live office to server - in this are you able to see Live Office tab in word document?
Yes, I can see the Live Office tab. When I try to connect to the server to insert a crystal report I get the message "constructor exception (error: WSE 99999) Unknown error "-1""
Did the installation process was done properly?
As far as I am aware, yes.
Which version of Live office you are using? because it will help to proceed further.
LIVE OFFICE XI 3.1 (version 12.1.0.882)
Where exactly you are not getting the Crystal Reports Options? Are you facing any error message?If Yes then what is the error message.
Please see above
Are you able to login to server successfully?
I can in Excel in Live office but not in Word. As per the first message, I cannot see an option in Crystal to publish a crystal report. Do you know how I can do this? As I understand I need to publish it to the server and then Live Office will be able to see it.
Regards
Asha.

Connect SAP R/3 and BW to Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am trying to connect crystal reports to SAP R/3 and BW
I have installed the SAP XI Integration for SAP solutions kit. I have zipped all the files to a folder on my local machine. What do I need to do now to make this work? If anyone can give me a step by step direction that is easy, please let me know! I have a folder called Transports from the zipped file which has some files in it, however if someone can please explain where I need to go in either crystal or SAP that would be extremely helpful, thanks!
Fahad

Hi,
it would actually help if you would share the error message here as well.
You need Crystal Reports 2008, INtegration Kit for SAP and BusinessObjects Enterprise.
correct - Transports are required as well and need to be installed.
You can find all the details in the Installation and Administration Guide for the SAP Integration Kit on help.sap.com

Unable to connect to "SAP Table, Cluster, or Function" in Crystal reports.

I cannot connect to "SAP Table, Cluster, or Function" in Crystal reports. The system gives such an error: Database Conection Error: Functional module "/CRYSTAL/GET_OSQL_OBJECT_LIST" not found.
Did anyone get this error? What can't be wrong with my system?

Hi Sergey,
you must import some transports in your SAP R/3 system before you can access its tables. Have a look at the documentation of the int.KIT for SAP.
The transports are normally to be found in the install directory of your server installation of the BOBJ int.KIT for SAP. In the documentation is easy to identify those which must be imported depending on the system's type and version.

Hi,
Does it means we are allowed to create stored Procedure inside the Company Database. We only use selecting and joining tables and somehow some complex sql procedures to meet our requirements.
Thanks, but my question is if there's nothing wrong with it why my SAP B1 Closes when previewing the Crystal Report. Im running on Windows 7 64-bit, i will not imagine that the capacity of memory of my Terminal Unit is not enough because my memory is 8GB. I run crystal report but it shows the record, but when running the Cystal Viewer inside SAP B1 it illegally terminated.
Thanks for clarifying the creation of Stored Procedure.

SAP System Log on issue using Crystal Reports:

Hi All,
I have installed Crystal reports, Business Explorer and Business Objects XI Integration. But when I tried to create a new report using SAP Table, Cluster or Functional, I couldn't able to select SAP System since it shows SAP System Log on selection was blank.
Note: I have undergone the following trials:
         1) All the trials are done after connecting to the Internal Vpn.
         2) Re-installed the Crystal reports, Business Explorer and Business Objects XI. But result was the same.
         3) Compared all the setting parameters with another System which works fine.
         4) Only difference seems to be that I am using Win Vista and other one is Win XP OS.
         5) Tried in the net for Win Vista specific patches or software to run the crystal report but couldn't helped.
Did any one come across similar experience or is there any idea why it could be? Thank you in advance.
Best Regards,
Sujith

Hi Don,
Thank you very much for your reply. I was wondering from where we could download XI R2 ( 11.5 ) SP 2. I have tried downloading Software Forces .rpt Inspector 3 Professional suite (for CR XI R2) . But this doesn't seems to be the right one. Also I have cheked in sdn Crysal Report 2008 download (https://websmp230.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm ). But no luck. Thanks again.

SAP B1 8.8 integration with Crystal report

Hi Experts,
Is there different Installer for SAP B1 8.8 version.
I installed crystal report for SAP B1, but I am getting following error
" External connection to database failed. SAP Crystal add on may not function properly. Please rerun the Account setup with Superuser login"
I am login as Super User & When i am trying to open Account Setup , i am getting following error -
" Item - Could not commit action because the item is currently in focus. [ 66000-23]
could you please suggest, possible solution
tks,

Hi Sb1,
There is no external addon and installer for Crystal report integration with SBO 8.8. Just install SBO8.8 and CR2008 is using for only designing the reports. SAP already incorporated all the related integration in SBO 8.8 version.
Thanks

SAP Integration Kits 3.0 with Crystal Report 2008

Hi,
I have installed Intergration Kits 3.0 and Crystal Report 2008.
I open the Crystal Report Designer from Start >Programs >Crystal Reports 2008 > Crystal Reports 2008.
As mentioned by Ingo, I have ticked the MDX driver setting via SAP menu option.
I clicked on u201CCreate New report from queryu201D
Selected the fields from the Query and placed in the report.
When I click on Preview button, I hits the following:
Database Connector Error: u2018Function module u201C/CRYSTAL/MDX_GET_STREAM_INFOu201D not found.u2019
Another problem that I encountered is when I can only enter UPPERCASE for my SAP BW User ID and Password in Crystal Report (when I try to logon into SAP BW in Crystal by clicking on the u201CCreate New report from queryu201D). So I need to change my password to Uppercase in BW.
Have you encountered this before? I guess it is related to installation problem? Should I uninstall and reinstall again?
Please advise, thank you.

Hi,
So I just need to send the neccessary files mentioned in transports_EN.txt to my basis guys with your instruction. Then I should be able to use the MDX driver in crystal reports already?
Correct!
the SAP BusinessObjects documentation (and Ingo) mentions that the transports have to be imported. HOW to do this is an SAP Basis administration related issue and is NOT described in the BusinessObjects documentation.
As far as I know the appropriate files (there is a dependency related to the version and the type (BW or R/3) of your SAP backend system) described in transports_EN.txt) have to be copied in the directory which is set to be the tranport queue for your SAP system and then the admin can use the STMS transaction to import them.
NOTE: In a BW system you have to import BOTH the SAP Basis transports AND the SAP BW related transports. That means you have to import in total 9 transports = 18 files

Connection to Enterpise RAS Server to run Crystal Reports from Externaltool

Hi,
I am new to SDK, we have this situation
We are using Enterprise BO XI 3.1 SP2, and we use a Java based tool by an external vendor
that has Crystal reports and the vendor suggested to we use Crystal report embedded Report
Application server to run those reports.
The reports run successfully when we use Crystal report embedded Report Application server
and we are having difficulties with establishing connection to the RAS Server that comes
with the BO 3.1 Installation.
My questions are:
1) Is there a difference between connecting to stand alone RAS server and the Enterprise
server as the vendor insisted on by saying that their code looks for the RAS service name, but with
the enterprise version under the services there is only one service name CMC
2) what are the steps we need to take to establish the connection with enterprise RAS server
3) currently we are using RAS server has version 12.2.7.598 , Vendor Certified is 12.1.0.882
for the standalone server. Does the version cause any issues
Our direction is to go with the Enterprise BO XI 3.1 SP2 RAS server. Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated
Thanks

First thing to check is to determine that the RAS server command-line has specified the -ipport <port number> and that the Java code is calling the RAS server on that port.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Not able to connect to older version of CMS from Crystal report 2008

When i try to open a report kept in platform/Enterprise (XI r2 CMC) from my crystal report it says that "Access denied. you cannot log on to an older version of the CMS."
I need to copy these reports to a differnt box. please advice.
Arka

Hi,
As you are in XIR2 Enterprise version so, you can use the Import wizard to import the report.
You can create BIAR file using the Import wizard and then in the destination system use the Import wizard to import the reports from the BIAR file.
You can get more information in the admin guide, from the below site:

Sample code Connection Dbase Oracle 10 g integrate with Crystal Report XI

help me there any having example [of] code integrate the Crystal Report XI by JSP (Jdev 10.1.3) using Database Oracle 10g ,
Step [of] what having to me [do/conduct] to making integration of Crystal Report XI by Jdev 10.1.3 with the Database Oracle 10g and What JAR File to setting my JSP for integrate crystal report XI using Oracle 10g.
I work with Jdev 10.1.3 and OC4J standalone with database oracle 10 g and Crystal Report XI
please help....

I would make verify the database within Crystal report and then re publish it again. It seems it doesn't get the connection to the db.
Have you refreshed the database within Crystal Reports?
As Graham said, does it open in Crystal Viewer?
another thing would be to add the DSN (System DSN) onto your client machine as well. Maybe it is not getting a right connection.
Try it and let us know.

Connecting Oracle 10.2.0.1 to Crystal Reports 11 in WinXP 64-bit

I'm trying migrating my apps to WinXP x64 (64-bit) due to large (4GB) RAM support.
When running in 32-bit, Oracle and Crystal played well together by ODBC.
When running in 64-bit, with 64-bit Oracle, and 32-bit Crystal, I am having problems with the Oracle ODBC driver. I can create a User DSN and a File DSN that connects on test, but then Crystal rejects it as no database object or driver found. I can create a System DSN that connects on test, but Crystal can't see it.
I assume this has something to do with there being a "Program Files" and "Program Files (32)" and an ODBC directory buried in each, but don't know how to solve this.
Interestingly, SQL-Server 2005 has the same issues with System DNS not seen by Crystal, but UserDSN and FileDSN do connect.
- Will

see my post... Install 10.2.0.1.0 WinXP-64 with 32-bit client on same box?

Error Connecting SAP Business One and Crystal Report

Hi All,
I installed Crystal Report 2008 on my system for creating a report in Crystals.
I clicked on "New Report" and it opened a window called "Database Exert." However, when I look in the Database Expert, I cannot see "SAP Business One" in it. How can I connect SAP Business One 8.8 with Crystal Report?
Regards,

Hi
On your computer, locate the Crystal folder according to the following directory path: C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\Crystal. Then double-click the file: SAP Business One Crystal Report Integration Package.exe. and follow the step of the setup status screen.
