CR2008 Parameters value list

We are using CR2008 and have trouble using parameters which is explained below :
1) When defining parameters in Crystal, which is interfaced with SAP ERP, we are unable to see the full list of values from the source when using static parameters .
On researching SDN, we found some registry changes we could make and have already done that but still we only see couple of values.
Also tried using dynamic value and still the same result. We are unable to see the complete list from where we can select .
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks .

Date Parameters and List of Values (error message date format cannot be nul

I'm new to BI Publisher. I began with a simple report that has 4 parameters. The parameters are center code, sales date, customer number, and job number. I am trying to create a list of values on my customer number based on the center code and sales date entered by the user. My query for my LOV is:
select customer_nbr
from ticket
where center_cd = :center
and trunc(trans_date) = :salesDate
salesDate is defined as a date parameter with a format of MM-dd-yy. It's default value is 04-10-07.
When I attempt to view my report after adding the LOV, I receive the error:
Date format can not be null.
What am I doing wrong? Also, I would like the salesDate to default to the current date. I have tried using sysdate as the default value. This isn't working. The salesDate defualts to null when it is set to sysdate.

"Date - allows the user to enter a date as a parameter. Note that the data type must also be "Date" and the format must be Java date format."

How can we use C# to read dynamic parameter's value list from .rpt?

I'm using Cystal Report 2008. We know starting from CR XI we can create dynamic parameters, the list of items of this kind of parameter are fetching from database. So in general the SQLs to get the list of values for dynamic parameters are stored in the .rpt.
In Crystal Report Designer, if I preview a report with dynamic parameters, it will first query the database and then show the input dialog with list of values from database for user to choose. My question is can we implement the same thing by our C# code? I'm planning to use C# code to read this dynamic parameter's value list from .rpt and render them on the web page. Then pass back the user selected values to the .rpt to run the report after user make the choice. I didn't find any APIs can do this. Is it possible?
Thanks in advance!!

Hi,
Can you explain a bit in detail, I have similar scenario. I am using the following code but not getting the Column name for dynamic parameter list.
foreach (ParameterFieldDefinition prm
                          in reportDocument.DataDefinition.ParameterFields)
                try
                    string vParameterFieldName;
                    *vParameterFieldName = prm.ParameterFieldName.ToString();*

How to pass a value to a filter prompt based on a value list?

I have a query that has a filter prompt that is based on a value list. I want to call this query from another query as a drill down.
So I build the URL to call the query and pass the value for the filter prompts as URL parameters. For the filter prompts that are simple text fields this works without problems, but how do I pass a value to the filter prompt that is based on the value list?
I tried passing
<parameterName>=<valueListId>:616:null
and that gives me "None" for the value list prompt as expected.
I then tried to pass the DisplayName (as I would do when setting a default value for the prompt).
Like this:
<parameterName>=<displayName>
but that does not work.
I also tried some variations/combinations like
<parameterName>=<valueListId>:616:<displayName>
but that does not work either.
So does anybody know how to pass a parameter to the value list prompt?

How to hide dynamic parameters values in the URL with Reports 6i

Hi,
I want to know a way of hiding the parameters values when asking for a report through the web.
Now I'm using the Reports 3.0.5.8 with a Cartridge defined in the Oracle Web Application Server 3.0.1.0.1. When you ask for a report with the parameters DESTYPE = cache and DESFORMAT = pdf, it is fully generated and in the Address or Location box of the browser, you can see http://webserver/cache/report.pdf (where cache is the virtual directory defined in the OWAS in which the .pdfs are cached). So, users cant see the Url used to generate the report.
Im trying to upgrade this configuration to Reports 6i with Cgi in a web server. I generate reports with no problems. The problem I have is I cant find how to hide the parameters values as before. I mean, when I ask for a report, once its generated I can see http://webserver/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe?server=ServerName&report=report.rdf&userid=user/pass@connection&destype=cache&desformat=pdf&P1=value1&P2=value2 in the Location box. It allows user to ask for another report changing the values of the parameters. I use these parameters to execute some query written in the Data Model. For example, imagine that the P1 represents the company id, the user (that is supposed to see only data of its company) can change this id, ask for a new report and see data of another company.
Ive already tried to use the key mapping option, but its not useful to me because the parameters values are dynamic and its impossible to define different entries in the cgicmd.dat for each possible value. The option of loading the parameter form before running a report is not useful to me either, because there exists specific screens for this purpose.
Is there any solution?
Thank you.
Marma Bonfiglio.

Hi Rakesh,
I am using BI 7.0
The last option I have is 'Hide' for 'Calculate single values as' .
I have the below options for 'Calculate single values as'
1. Normalise according to Next group level Resul.
2. Normalize according to Overall Result
3. Rank number
4.Olympic Rank Number
5.Maximum
6. Minimum
7.Counter for all detailed values
8.Counter for all detailed values that are non zero
9.Moving average
10.Moving average That is Not zero ,null or Error
11. Hide.
So could you please tell me where i can find 'suppress result' option for the keyfigure .
Many thanks

Select-options - select multiple values from personal value list

Hi experts,
In my application, I am using select-options. I select the values required from the search help into the personal value list . I want to copy these values from the personal value list into my ranges table. Do I have to copy them one row at a time. Is there any way to select the values directly into the ranges table of the select-options field?
Regards,
Abdullah.

Boy, this is something we're struggling with too. So we'd like to hear others' ideas on this also.
thank you,

Value list for a new field

Hi to all of you SAP experts
I need to add a new field to an info-type (in the hr module).
The field needs to have a value list (check table).
I have two options, I can create a data element based on a standard domain and add the check table at the level of the actual structure OR I can create a new domain and hold the value table there.
My question is what should be the considerations for choosing one way or another?
Thank you.

If the values will change rarely, then it's simpler to just add it to the domain; but if new values are added or existing ones changed frequently, then you should consider the check table.

Cannot add new items to a value list in AW database

I have a database which I have been using for many years. One of the fields is a value list. I just went to add another item to the list, and no matter what I do, the Create button is grayed out. I have another value list in the same database that works fine.
There are currently 170 items in the value list that is causin the problem, but I didn't think that there was a limit to the number of items that can be is a value list. (At least there is nothing in the AW technical specifications to indicate thin. I duplicated the existing database, deleted about 20 items from the list, then saved the file, and reopened it, and still cannot add new items to that value list. Does anyone know what might be causing the problem?

Oops
I read too fast.
Here is a short script which may help.
Replace the pop-up item by a text one and edit the property myList in my script to fit your needs.
Select the field to fill and run the script.
Then choose an item in the displaid list. It will be pasted in the selected field.
This trick would give you to work with a "no limit" list of items.

Assuming that
the front document is a database one
and that a text field is selected,
run the script to select an item in a list
and paste it in the field.

UCCX 9.0 CUIC Value lists

Hello,
I have installed UCCX 9.0(2) and I am using CUIC for the reporting data. When I first configured the UCCX CSQs, I used some sample names. After the testing phase, I changed those names to the final names.
Everything is working as expected with the callcenter. The only problem I have is that in CUIC, if I check the Stock Value list "UCCX_CSQ Names" I see the names of the old CSQs as well as the new CSQs.
The old CSQs are no longer configured in the system, and I cannot modify the value list since it is a stock list. How can I remove those old names from CUIC?
Regards,
Javier

If you delete of modifiy any thing in UCCX then old value will mark as inactive but that will still present in infromix database.
if you want to completly remove it then you have to purge the old data . but in that case you will lose all your historical data also . you can request TAC they will delete old config from root . but normally this is working as design .

Crystal Reports and values list of BEx variables

Hello.
I read this - http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsandBWquery+elements
And there are writed in wiki:
"List of values for SAP variables are created automatically by Crystal Reports only when you use SAP Toolbar to create the report:
The list of values for a variable in Crystal Reports will be static, but the list will be always dymanic in InfoView as long as you use BW Publisher (save reports to BW, publish to BOE)and you logon to BOE using SAP Authentication."
I have two link to BEx queries from my CR report - and my variables have not values. I think that I don't use "SAP" menu when created the report.
But... what I can doing now? Is way transform "simple" report into "SAP" report?
May be is way create "SAP" report and after it copy all content of old report into new "SAP" report including all objects, formats, formulas, connections?
May be is way load values list from BEx query with "simple" reports?
And another question - I see that in list I get texts and codes but showing only texts in run-time. Can I tune CR for show codes too?

Non-english (cyrillic) characters in parameters values passed thru GO URL

Hi
Is it possible somehow to pass non-english (cyrillic) parameters and parameters values from one report to another using GO URL? Straightforward approach doesn't work since internal web-server (browser?) encoding of these cyrillic values on the stage of URL passing.

Hi Srini,
Thanks for all your help.
Now I am able to navigate to the requested report/Dashboard Page. The issue was there were some spaces in between the url and parameters.
But Now,I am stuck at passing the filters. Actually only the first filter among the 6 filters is getting passed. Even If swap the order of the filters, I first one in the order is only getting passed.
So I have hardcoded the filters with actual values instead of Column names and then I am able to pass all the filters.
Here is the updated URL:
'<a href=http://servername/analytics/
saw.dll?GO&path=/shared/xxx/aa%20bb/report%20one
&Action=Navigate&P0=6&P1=eq&P2="Fact%20-%20xxx".ID1&P3='||CAST("Dim - Abc"."One ID" AS CHAR)||'&P4=eq&P5="Fact%20-%20xxx".ID2='||CAST("Dim - Abc"."Two ID" AS CHAR)||'&P6=&P7=lt&P8="Fact%20-%20xxx".DATE&P9='||CAST(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY,1,"Time"."Day") AS CHAR)||'&P10=eq&P11="Fact%20-%20xxx"."Three%20ID"&P12='||CAST("Dim - Abc"."Three ID" AS CHAR)||'&P13=ge&P14="Fact%20-%20xxx".DATE1&P15='||CAST(TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY,1,"Time"."Day") AS CHAR)||'&P16=eq&P17="Time".Day&P18='||CAST("Time"."Day" AS CHAR)||'style="text-decoration:none;">'||"Dim - Abc.Name"||'<--/a>'
Just after removing the spaces, It started navigating.
Also tried out removing the Cast and || operators then I was getting the error " Id1 was expecting a numeric value but recieved ("Dim - Abc"."One ID").

Restrict value list (F4) at variable selection screen

Hi,
we have a variable of type "manual input" so that it appears at the selection screen before executing the query.
The value-list (F4) for this variable provides every value of masterdata of the infoobject. But here is the problem: I want only those values that are used in the infocube. Is there a way to restrict this list? Customer-Exit??
Thanks for all hints!
Regards,
Mathias

Hi,
I tested both of the hints - in my system both settings had no impact.
Can it be a release problem? My BW is a 3.0B SP 15.
I changed the settings in the InfoObj and put a new variable in the query-def for this characteristic. In the variable-selector before executing the query I can select a value (via F4) for the characterisitc which is not used in the cube. This is my problem. Only used values should be selectable.
These are the settings in the InfoObj:
Display                 Text
BEx description         Short description
Selection               Unique for Every Cell
Q Def. Filter Val Sel   Only Values in InfoProv
Q Exec Filter Val. Sel Only Posted Values for Navi
Can anyone help?
Thanks, Mathias

Personal Value List in automatic F4 Help

I have created an input field in my web dynpro view. For the underlying data element I have created a search help in the dictionary, and in the context, I have selected "search help = automatic". Now, i get a F4 help for the input field for free, which I like a lot.
In the F4-help window, there is a button called "Add to Personal Value List", but this button is disabled all the time.
What can I do to enable that button (and the respective functionality)?
