CR 2008 Advanced Chart in Report Header -Returning Repeated Data

Very new to CR. I've a situation i need some assistance with. I have an advanced chart located in a report header. the chart is sourcing data from a stored procedure call. the stored procedure returns timeseries data (timestamp, value) for a one month period, thirty values. There are many columns in the result set but i'm trending only two of tehm in the trend.
Problem is that, although the data set has only thirty values, when I view the trend visually the data is repeated many times over. So i'll see the data for the dates 1...30, then 1...30, many times over. If I zoom into the trend I can get to a point where there's a single month of data in the extents but this isn't the desired behaviour; i want to see only the 30 values plotted.
configuration is,
Advanced Chart -Line chart format-
"For each record"
(Date Time Field)
"Show Values"
(Series Data Field)
I've confirmed  using Field Explorer / browse data that there are only thirty values in the result set. What am I overlooking here?

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:

  • Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error

    When attempting to write to a new file (Eg: C:\TEST.txt), Report Script returns no data and "java.io.FileNotFoundException" error occurs.
    This error occurs only in Essbase 9.3.1.3 release, however it works fine in release 9.3.1.0.
    After running the report the script, it pops up the follwing message:
    "java.io.FileNotFoundException: ..\temp\eas17109.tmp (The system cannot find the file specified): C:\TEST.txt"
    When checked the TEST.txt, it was empty.

    Sorry folks, I just found out the reason. Its because there was no data in the combination what I was extracting.
    but is this the right error message for that? It should have atleast create a blank file right?

  • Upgraded to Crystal 2008 - one of my reports now has no data

    Upgraded to Crystal 2008, now at (12.3.0.601).
    However one of my reports (which was previously developed in Crystal X1) is now coming up blank.
    I've tested the data on the previous system and the report comes back correctly so there is not an issue with data.
    The report is built using XML Schema files and assigning the datasource from VS2008.
    When the application is built with Crystal X1, this works fine.
    I've refreshed the report using crystal 2008 but no good.
    Other reports which use SP's as the source are working fine!
    Any suggestions?

    Thanks for the quick response.
    What I mean by 'I refreshed the report in Crystal 2008' is that I opened the report in Crystal 2008 and verified it.
    I did not have to do this with the other reports.
    I cannot test this in the designer as the data gets assigned from the application.
    However, the old version of the report with the same data works fine.
    Note - there are no error message. The report displays with no data.
    There are no code change made so everything points to the report which is strange.
    Other reports work correctly but this one is different as it uses XML source.
    Thanks.

  • Report Query returning "No Data Found" with bind variables

    I put a simple query into Report Query:
    Select "bluefish". "name" as "name",
    "bluefish"."primary_flag" as "primary_flag",
    "bluefish"."status" as "status",
    "bluefish"."ID" as "ID" from "bluefish" "bluefish" where "bluefish"."ID" = :P3_XPRINTID
    When I test the query, data is returned; however, when I try to run the query using "Test Report" button, I get an error 01403 No Data Found. If I replace the bind variable with an explicit value, the report works.
    Anyone have any ideas as to what is causing this problem? I am using the Generic Report Layout, with various output types. I AM editting the query and defining the bind variable before I test the report (otherwise, the query wouldn't run).

    Sometimes if you create a form/report/whatever using the wizards, it will create an After Submit process called something like Reset Page - basically you want to make sure you don't have any After Submit processes that call a Clear Session state (it may say something like Clear Cache for Page).
    In your branch, there is also a box that says Clear Cache - you want to make sure that does not have page Number 8 in it or it will clear your session state.
    Put the page in Debug mode and read through it - check to make sure your value is getting saved and maybe you can see what is going wrong.

  • SSRS 2012: Report Header PrintOnFirstPage-problem after report migration from SSRS 2008

    Hi ,
    I developed my report using VS 2008 IDE and the report header property "PrintOnFirstPage" is set to False.
    The content of the header are some textboxes and lines that should show only on page number > 1.
    This works fine in VS 2008 IDE in preview mode as well as with reports rendered by SSRS 2008 report server.
    Recently I migrate&convert the same report to SSRS 2012 I noticed a different rendering behaviour of my report.
    So in VS 2010 preview mode, the page headers content (textboxe etc.)  is not visible on first page but the headers space did not colapse as it does in VS 2008 IDE preview mode.
    I checked all the report properties but unable to find a solution to my problem.
    I was able to reprduce the same behaviour by creating a new report using VS2010 IDE.
    Any ideas are greatly appreciated
    Thanks
    Bodo

    Hi BodoHH,
    I have tested on my local enviorment and can't reproduce the issue, the issue can be caused by many factors, it can be caused by the properties setting and can also caused by the visual studio, Detais information below for your reference:
    As you mentioned that you have check all the report properties, please also check the tablix,Page Header,report body properties to see if the size are the same with that in the SSRS2008.
    Please open this rdl report in the report builder to see if the print layout is correct, if it works fine, the issue can be caused by the visual studio.
    Please also try to upload the rdl report to report manager to check the layout.
    Please also provide the snaphot of the layout in VS2010 to let us better analysis about the issue.
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • Custom Report return no data

    Hi,
    i have a custom report, when i choose to log in the application with Arabic language and run the report it return no data, while it return data when i log with English language  ,
    i have English as basic lang and Arabic as installed lang and i am using R 12 .
    any help, many thanks.

    In Report Attributes tab, under Messages, you will see a section named "When No Data Found Message". In it, I added this javascript code. When no data was found, the javascript worked, and popped up a message box. You can replace the alert code below with a call to your javascript function.
    <script language="javascript">
    alert("no data found");
    </script>
    There is another way. In the Region Definition tab, there is a section called "Region Footer". In it, add this javascript:
    <script language="javascript">
    var i = #TOTAL_ROWS#;
    alert(i);
    </script>
    When variable i is zero, then you know that no data was returned.
    Hope this helps.

  • Charts in Report Designer - choosing columns and rows for categories

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a pie chart in report designer from a data provider which has 4 rows and 4 columns. As a default the chart created is using the 1st row for data and the four columns as categories.I want the pie chart  to use the first column for categories and 2nd column for data. How do I change the default chart behaviour?
    Best regards,
    Jai

    Hi Jai,
    take a look at:
    "Class 1 Chart Types" in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c9/08533b97037963e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    Link is regarding WAD web item but editing is the same in Report Designer.
    Here you will get information with example query for editing pie charts and what is possible or not.
    like:
    Structure of the Data Provider for a Pie Chart
    In a pie chart, the underlying table has only one row. The values in the columns form the pie segments.
    If the table contains more than one row, the additional rows are ignored when the table is converted into a chart. However, you can define which row is to be used (see below).
    Additional the link describes how to build the query for your requirement.

  • Report does not load data initially

    I have a standard report, with radio buttons and select dropdown to specify some query conditions. I have more than one pages with similar structure.
    A strange thing happening is:
    One of page does not initialy load data. It seems the query was not being executed when the page start up.
    I have checked the default values of those radio buttons and select drop downs, there are all set when the page is loading up. I have page computation to set them up. The report always return "No Data" when first time login. But as soon as the page is submitted ( without make any change) , the report is perfectly shown up.
    Anybody has any idea? Thanks.

    Hi,
    When you login, check from session state (developer toolbar) that items do have value.
    I do not know your Apex version so I post link to latest version document
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17556_01/doc/user.40/e15517/concept.htm#sthref104
    You probably need do before/after header computation for items you use in report query where clause

  • Chart report Condition fields and Data fields

    Hi all,
    i have tried chart report by adding two condion fields and one data field, the report is more meaning full in this scenario. the first condition field is taken as x-axis, the 2nd condition fields is taken as legend.
    while adding more condition fields and data fields, i feel its not showing meaningfull data.
    can anyone explain how the condition fields and data fileds are manipulated by crystal report.
    i am using CR XI R2 Server.
    Thanks
    Padmanaban V

    i am using Crystal Report XI R2 RAS Embedded in my server.
    as we can add any number condition fields programatically using the method
    ConditionField.Add(FieldObj), i would like to know how these fields are manipulated internally by the RAS server.
    that means, what is the significance of condition fieldobject 1, condition fieldobject 2,condition fieldobject 3 etc...
    if i add more than two condition fields , RAS Chart Report always returns 0 as legend value for all legends.
    Thanks in advance

  • SSRS Text box expression in Report Header

    Hi Experts,
    I'm trying below expression under Text box (Report Header)
    = IIf( IsNothing(Parameters!vCp_ID.Value) OR Parameters!vCp_ID.Value = "", "All", Join(Parameters!vCp_ID.Value,", ") )
    It gives me error message as:- 
    Warning 1 [rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the textrun ‘Header_Cp_ID_Value.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: Overload resolution failed because no Public '=' can be called with these arguments: 'Public Shared Operator =(a As String, b As String) As Boolean': Argument matching parameter 'a' cannot convert from 'Object()' to 'String'. C:\Users\abc1\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Report Project1\Report Project1\ClaimsLevel.rdl 0 0
    Any help what I'm doing wrong? Because of this is it printing "#Error" while previewing the Report.
    If I remove IIF condition and place only:- 
    Join(Parameters!vCp_ID.Value,", ")
    than everything is working fine.
    Thanks in advance

    KG, MCTS

    Hi,
    Since this parameter allows selection of multi values, the values of the parameter is returned as an array which cannot be used in comparing with = operator, as you have in the expression
    Parameters!vCp_ID.Value = "".
    You may pass the first value of the parameter (element with 0 index) instead like
    Parameters!vCp_ID.Value(0) = "". Note the .Value(0). As such, you expression may be written as
    = IIf( IsNothing(Parameters!vCp_ID.Value) OR Parameters!vCp_ID.Value(0) = "", "All", Join(Parameters!vCp_ID.Value,", ") )
    Hope this helps. Please feel free to discuss if you have any other questions.

  • SSRS - Is there a multi thread safe way of displaying information from a DataSet in a Report Header?

     In order to dynamically display data in the Report Header based in the current record of the Dataset, we started using Shared Variables, we initially used ReportItems!SomeTextbox.Value, but we noticed that when SomeTextbox was not rendered in the body
    (usually because a comment section grow to occupy most of the page if not more than one page), then the ReportItem printed a blank/null value.
    So, a method was defined in the Code section of the report that would set the value to the shared variable:
    public shared Params as String
    public shared Function SetValues(Param as String ) as String
    Params = Param
    Return Params 
    End Function
    Which would be called in the detail section of the tablix, then in the header a textbox would hold the following expression:
    =Code.Params
    This worked beautifully since, it now didn't mattered that the body section didn't had the SetValues call, the variable persited and the Header displayed the correct value. Our problem now is that when the report is being called in different threads with
    different data, the variable being shared/static gets modified by all the reports being run at the same time. 
    So far I've tried several things:
    - The variables need to be shared, otherwise the value set in the Body can't be seen by the header.
    - Using Hashtables behaves exactly like the ReportItem option.
    - Using a C# DLL with non static variables to take care of this, didn't work because apparently when the DLL is being called by the Body generates a different instance of the DLL than when it's called from the header.
    So is there a way to deal with this issue in a multi thread safe way?
    Thanks in advance!
     

    Hi Angel,
    Per my understanding that you want to dynamic display the group data in the report header, you have set page break based on the group, so when click to the next page, the report hearder will change according to the value in the group, when you are using
    the shared variables you got the multiple thread safe problem, right?
    I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, according to the multiple safe problem the better way is to use the harshtable behaves in the custom code,  you have mentioned that you have tryied touse the harshtable but finally got
    the same result as using the ReportItem!TextBox.Value, the problem can be cuased by the logic of the code that not works fine.
    Please reference to the custom code below which works fine and can get all the expect value display on every page:
    Shared ht As System.Collections.Hashtable = New System.Collections.Hashtable
    Public Function SetGroupHeader( ByVal group As Object _
    ,ByRef groupName As String _
    ,ByRef userID As String) As String
    Dim key As String = groupName & userID
    If Not group Is Nothing Then
    Dim g As String = CType(group, String)
    If Not (ht.ContainsKey(key)) Then
    ' must be the first pass so set the current group to group
    ht.Add(key, g)
    Else
    If Not (ht(key).Equals(g)) Then
    ht(key) = g
    End If
    End If
    End If
    Return ht(key)
    End Function
    Using this exprssion in the textbox of the reportheader:
    =Code.SetGroupHeader(ReportItems!Language.Value,"GroupName", User!UserID)

    I had the same problem and this is what I did, works great. You have the total control.
    function BeforeReport return boolean is
    fp text_io.file_type;
    begin
    -- creating a file name
    :CP_filename := 'C:\Gap'||to_char(sysdate,'MMDDYYHHMISS')||'.csv';
    -- Opening the file in write mode
    fp := text_io.fopen(:CP_filename,'w');
    -- writing the column headings into the file
    text_io.put_line(fp,'"Platform","Sys#","GapType",');
    text_io.fclose(fp);
    return (TRUE);
    end;
    and then where ever it is suitable, depending on the requirement, write into file by opening it in the append mode.
    function R_G_systemplatformFormatTrigge return boolean is
    fp text_io.file_type;
    begin
    --     srw.message(99,:dname);
    fp := text_io.fopen(:CP_filename,'a');
    text_io.put(fp,'"' || :systemplatform || '",');
    text_io.put(fp,'"' || to_char(:sysno) || '",');
    text_io.put_line(fp,'"' || :CF_gaptype || '",');
    text_io.fclose(fp);
    return (TRUE);
    end;
    This works great. Hope this helps.

  • SSRS 2008 - hide chart lines based on parameter selected

    How to control visibility of chart lines based on Params selected by user?
    By default, my report display last 3 years worth of data (including current) with Month on the x axis and Counts on the y axis. I have two Boolean parameters:
    TwoYrs? T/F
    ThreeYrs? T/F
    if False is selected for TwoYr and ThreeYr parameters then I want to hide chart lines corresponding to last year and the year before.
    What I've tried: Created 3 Series groups with filters. eg. YearSeries1 to return only current year data and applying an expression to display it if params TwoYrs and ThreeYrs = False. and so on for YearSeries2 to return current + last
    years data if param TwoYrs is True and ThreeYrs = False.  But I don't see where to add expression to control the display of the individual series groups.  I am open to any way of doing this, but this seemed most logical.

    Hi Ok-Hee,
    In your Source Query just need to filter the series data based on the Parameters.
    I have written sample query below:-
    select * from
    select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2013 year,100 amount
    union
    select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2014 year ,200 amount
    union
    select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2015 year , 300 amount
    union
    select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2013 year, 300 amount
    union
    select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2014 year, 350 amount
    union
    select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2015 year,200 amount
    union
    select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2013 year, 380 amount
    union
    select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2014 year, 100 amount
    union
    select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2015 year, 500 amount
    )t
    where year in (
    select distinct FilterYear from
    select case when @TwoYrs=1 then year(getdate())-1 else year(getdate()) end FilterYear
    union
    select case when @TwoYrs=1 and @ThreeYrs =1 then year(getdate())-2 else year(getdate()) end FilterYear
    union
    select year(getdate()) FilterYear
    ) t
    I have created one post in my blog , you can check the result.

  • Dundas Chart for Reporting Services in SSRS 2012

    We are in the process of upgrading our servers to 2012 and though I find many things about converting or upgrading dundas controls to 2008, I can't find anything about upgrading/converting to SSRS 2012.  After converting the development machines to
    SQL Server/SSRS 2012 the reports now simply show "The custom Report Item Type DundasChartControl is not installed".  The only Dundas Chart installation I can find is for SSRS 2008.  Does a 2012 version not exist?  Am I supposed to
    convert these into Microsoft charts?
    Thanks in advance,
    Robb Melancon

    Hi Robb,
    It seems that you are using Dundas Chart Control for SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services not the Dundas Chart Control 2005 that Microsoft has purchased.
    Microsoft purchased the license to use Dundas Chart Control 2005 in Reporting Services 2008 and above. Therefore the supported upgrade is from Reporting Services 2005 Dundas Charts to SSRS 2008 (R2) and SSRS 2012 Charts.
    If you are using a particular component released by Dundas for SSRS 2008 R2, you won’t be able to upgrade Reporting Services 2008 R2 Reports with Dundas Charts to Reporting Services 2012 Charts.
    To confirm this, please check the details of this assembly “DundasRSChart.dll” located under the /Report Server/bin directory.
    If the Product Name is “Dundas Chart for Reporting Services 2008 R2”, it indicates that this is a new version of Dundas Chart for SSRS 2008 R2 (i.e. a third party control). If the Product Name is “Microsoft SQL Server”, it indicates that this is the version
    that Microsoft has purchased.
    In this condition, you have to migrate the DundasRSChart.dll to the SSRS 2012 instance and reference it as the custom assembly in the reports. Please make sure to rename the DLL file so that it won’t replace the native DundasRSChart.dll installed by SQL
    Server 2012.
    For more information about referencing custom assembly in a report, please see:
    Using Custom Assemblies with Reports
