CRM Interactive Reports - CRM and BI Reporting client same

Hello all,
I am setting up CRM Interactive reports in CRM 7.0 wherein the CRM client and the BI Reporting client are both the same. I know it is not recommended by SAP, but our requirement is very less.
I am following the steps as mentioned in the Best Practices C41. But, when I am trying to set up a source SAP system in RSA1(Section 4.14 of C41), i get an error saying that 'Source system XXXCLNTYYY already exists'. This is the same system which has already come under the BI node in RSA1.
Since we are using the same client for both the systems, how do I rectify this error?
Please help!
Regards
Debolina

Dear Srinivas,
One of the purposes of CRM Interactive reporting is quick-enablement of frequently used reports. Ofcourse these differ in all aspects with BI reports. These are faster and accurate when the data population is small.
It is not suggested to use dedicated BI server for Interactive reporting.
Anyways we can use both Interactive and BI reports simultaneously as per your client's requirement.
Hope it helps.
Thanks

Can 10g OAS run 10g Report server and 6i reports together?

Re-posted from the OAS thread: Can 10g OAS run 10g Report server and 6i reports together?
We have need to run 6i and 10g reports from the same physical server running OAS 10g.
Are there issues / conflicts?
There are hundreds of 6i reports called from many applications. Converting completely is a separate project on the books.
The need is to utilize 10g graphs on this urgent project. The graphing in 6i has not gotten along here with RAC and other distributed architecture. Additionally, I believe the 6i graph runtime would have to be installed on each client workstation... again, hundreds.
Thank you.

Hello,
You can install OAS 10g and Reports 6i on the same server as long as they are installed in different ORACLE_HOME ..
Take car to the value of the variable PATH ..

Running Reports 6i and 9i at the same time

I was wondering what the issues were with running Reports 6i and 9i at the same time. We are planning on up grading at a client, and I heard that there are some problems with doing this. I was thinking that installing them in different ORACLE_HOME's would help keep problems to a minimum. At home I have Reports 6i and 9i running, and I have not seen any problems.

We suggest you install 6i and 9i at different oracle home. There are no known issue about running 6i and 9i at the same time.
Thanks,

Views on CF Report Builder and Crystal Report

Dear all,
I would like to get your opinions on CF Report Builder and
Crystal Report.
As we all know, CF Report Builder is a new reporting tool.
But I find it very difficult to design a complex report maybe due
to limitation in its functionalities. Sometimes the tool shutdowns
by itself without any warning and reason. But the output is nicely
presented on a flash paper / pdf and it can be run on non-MS
platforms.
On the other hand, Crystal Report is a more matured product
but runs only on MS platform. It is very easy to use and very
powerful. I have been using it for almost 10 years. But the output
is not nicely presented on the web browser unless if we purchase
Crystal Report Enterprise to generate the report which is very
costly.
Can you all share your views? I need to make decision which
tool(s) to use. Really appreciate it.
Cheers,
Keiko

Hi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks

CRM Application Server Java and Portal components on same Java stack

Hi Team,
We are currently performing solution design and want some information on CRM install.
Want to know if there is any restriction for installing CRM Application Server Java and Portal components on same Java stack(With same SID). Also want to know if SAP WEB UIF 7.0 can work similar to that of Portal for CRM applications?
Any information around this would be appreciated.
Thanks

Do You have any servlets or filters defined using annotations? Maybe one of these servlets/filters catches the '/login' request first. I have very similar solution and it works fine. Also, how do You check that the servlet under '/login' url pattern isn't invoked?

Different display on client report builder and web reports

Hi all, I have build a report in report 6i version Report Builder 6.0.8.13.1.And I set the page to 8.5*11 ,and it runs well in the client ,but when I put it on the UNIX SERVER,and run it from web URL,It displayed different from the client report builder.The web report is "smaller" than the client report ,but the font size is as same as the client .
My HPUX is 11x,and display the Chinese report .
Any body know why ?give me some advice ,thank u very much.

Hi
If you had built the report definition on Windows and then moved this to Unix server, you may find different fonts in use. This is becuase your Unix setup does not have the same fonts install. At design time, You need to use fonts which are available on Unix also. The same fonts shaould also be installed for printer in Unix i.e. the AFM/PFM font files should be kept under $ORACLE_HOME/guicommonX/tkXX/admin/AFM or PFM directory. This would give you the same output and would lessen the porting affect.
Thanks

Difference Between Crystal Report Template and Sub Report

I am not able to get the Report Template Option/menu.
I am working with Visual Studio 2005 , Crystal Report Version 10.2
Do i need to have Crystal Report Server in order to work with Template.
Also i will like to know the diff. between Template and Sub Report?

Hello,
The Report Template Wizard is not part of Crystal in .NET. You need to upgrade to the full version of Crystal Reports.
Template is a base report to work from. Subreport is another report object that can be inserted into a section of the main report.
Thank you

Unable to save reports to enterprise from Crystal Reports 2013 and Crystal Reports for Enterprise

Dear Expert,
when we tried to save report to enterprise, error happened:
"Failed to find a Report Application Server."
We closed BO server firewall.
We could check report from PC by browser.
But when we save report from CR 2013, then error happened.
Then we install CR enterprise and save report is ok from same PC.
We launch latest patches too.
Anyone see this before? Please kindly help~
Environment:
SAP Crystal Reports 2013
SAP Business Intelligence 4.0
Regards,
April.

April, since you have CR4E, you also have BI and thus free phone support included. My suggestion would be to create a phone incident and work with an SAP engineer on the issue. Only saying because it looks like you're somewhat anxious to get this going(?).

Crystal Reports - Aggregation and Sub-report design for reconciliation

Hello,
I apologize for posting the question in this form (I am new to Crystal reports - so am trying to get my hands around the development)
I created two crystal reports
1. Report on top of BW
Fields:
A. Company Code
B. Vendor
C. Local Currency
D. Total Amount
2. Report on top of ECC
Fields:
A. Company Code
B. Vendor
C. Local Currency
D. Total Amount (This is a formula, as I used the total amount and debit/credit indicator to get the negative sign for amount)
Once I have created these two reports,
The first question is,
In the second report for the combination of the three characteristics mentioned above I have multiple rows, how can I aggregate them similar to BW where I have one row for a given combination.
The second question is,
I created a third report and I used the option you mentioned earlier "Insert --> Sub-report". When I used this option I selected the first report on top of BW and inserted it into Data Field and then used the same option to insert the second report on top of ECC and inserted it in Data field below the first report.
Once I had these reports inserted, I created formula fields in the third report for the following fields
1. Company Code
2. Vendor
3. Local Currency
4. Total Amount
From here on, I am not sure how can I link the fields from the above reports to the third report and also how can I do reconciliation between these two reports.
I really appreciate your help in this regards.
Thanks
Dharma.

Hi,
The first question is,
In the second report for the combination of the three characteristics mentioned above I have multiple rows, how can I aggregate them similar to BW where I have one row for a given combination.
>> You could create Groups in Crystal Reports and create totals in the report on top of ERP.
The second question is,
I created a third report and I used the option you mentioned earlier "Insert --> Sub-report". When I used this option I selected the first report on top of BW and inserted it into Data Field and then used the same option to insert the second report on top of ECC and inserted it in Data field below the first report.
Once I had these reports inserted, I created formula fields in the third report for the following fields
1. Company Code
2. Vendor
3. Local Currency
4. Total Amount
From here on, I am not sure how can I link the fields from the above reports to the third report and also how can I do reconciliation between these two reports.
>> Whats the source of the third report ? ERP or BW ?
You can use the Subreport Linking feature (right click on the report in the context menu) to setup the linking from the main report to the subreport

Report Optimization and Sub Reports

Post Author: olaszb
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hello,I am currently working with Crystal Reports XI Release 2 and have questions about optimization. We have a dataset (.NET) generated from Oracle and then passed to Crystal. For our largest report it is taking 15 seconds for the dataset to be generated, but over 3 minuets for Crystal to generate the report. We have 14 sub reports within this report. I'm pretty certain this is the bottle neck.Any sub report optimization suggestions? Would arrays be the way to go instead?

Post Author: olaszb
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
I went through the report and suppressed all sub reports and this cut the time down by 1/3 but still too slow. On our largest report we are getting 376 pages and with the sub reports suppressed there are 263 pages returned. Does anyone know if still goes through/caches the info of a sub report even if the report is suppressed?

Help Needed!!!! Running Forms 6i, Reports 6i and WebDB on the same NT box...

Hi All!
I am in need of some help.
I'm trying to set up the sample code for the Healthy Living WebSite.
I need to have WebDB 2.2x, Forms 6i and Reports 6i all running on the same box. Does anyone know how to set this up....?
Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt,
You didn't mention but do you also wish to install the database(8i) on the same machine ?
I am also trying to install all these products(+8i and designer 6i) on the same box but I am concerned more about the min. resources needed before I get started.(I put up a question about it on the 6i Forum, but nobody has answered yet !)
The correct install order should be Forms/Reports 6i then Forms/Reports 6i Server and then WebDb 2.2.
Forms /reports server needs a http listener and installs en configures the WebDb listener for the job.(you are prompted for this during tho have the install process).This is handy if you are intending to use WebDb anyway. When you install Webdb it detects the already installed WebDb listener and does not reinstall.
You do have the SYS password on the database you will use to stored the WDK and WebDb schema.
About installing the demo.....
I dont' think there are any special issues.I have never done it.
If you are intending to install an 8i database on the same box there are some important things to consider with respect to the install order and what products in which Oracle home must be installed.
1.Forms/Reports first in the default_oracle
home.
2.Then Oracle 8i in a 2nd oracle home call
it ora81 for example.
3.Then WebDb in the non oracle 8i home !!
This is just a quick summary.
If you run into any problems let me know
Good Luck.

What diff between BIP AttachEntity Report Generation and BIP Report Generation?

Hi all,
I want to know the two WF has what's difference.
I had seen they have same method and step.
Actually,I want to do a function, when click a button,will generate BIP reports.
Using the BIP Report Gneration can do this.
But I want pop a window to open or save the report after the WF finished work.
Could BIP AttachEntity Report Generation do that?
I had similitude it seem same as BIP Report Gneration.
Be appropriate to you if you can answer the question.
Thanks,
Wenqin

Ok, let me guess, you are seeing an error that says an invalid printer was selected, right? Well there is a bug in your code but it has nothing to do with the printer that you have selected. Specifically you have some of the margin values set to zero -- which is invalid. The margins have to have a value of at least 1. In case you're interested, I followed down the logic and inside the print report VI the code, for some unknown reason (NI is checking into it), remapps an error code that correctly identifies invalid margins to report one that reports an invalid printer name. Apparently this was first reported in 2008.
Verified this behavior of both LV2013 and 2014.

your looking Gl balances relating to cost center reports(Library -1VK Cost Centers) or profit center reports(Library- 8A2 EC-PCA)?
If your looking for the above go to GRR2, go the library(if it is cost center related 1VK, Profit center related 8A2) and double click on your Zreport and double click on the relevant account and check the gl accounts in characteristic values.
If it is relating to Financial Statement Key Figure go to FSI2, select the relevant report and check the same way

Multiple Column Header in Report (BEx and Web Reporting)

Hi All,
        I've a requirement where my reports is having multiple column header.
   To be precise the column header is further divided into many sub-columns (upto 4 levels).
Structure cannot help in this case since we have more than 2 such columns and we are using web reporting as well.
Here is how it looks
                         <b>Header-A</b>
Header-B1   |   Header-B2   |   Header-B3    | Header-Bn
Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2 |Hdr-D1 |Hdr-D2 |Hdr-E1 |Hdr-E2 |Hdr-Fn..
The above is a sample header structure.
This report will be a Web Based report and I need to know whether its possible to do it in BEx also.
We are not using Crystal Reports.
If there is any document related to this, please mail to
[email protected]
Thanks & Regards,
Chandran Ganesan

Hi Chandran,
I hope i am getting your problem right.
If your
Header-B1 | Header-B2 | Header-B3 | Header-Bn
Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2 |Hdr-D1 |Hdr-D2 |Hdr-E1 |Hdr-E2 |Hdr-Fn..
are a set of key figures, then there is an option.
For example:
You drag Header-B1,Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2
into column section.Right click on Hdr-C1, Hdr-C2 and select down under. So your Hdr-C1, Hdr-C2 will be under
Header-B1.
Like wise drag Header-B2,Hdr-D1,Hdr-D2
Right click on Hdr-D1,Hdr-D2 and say Down under and these two will fit below Header-B2.
You can repeat the above steps for Header-B3... Header-Bn
The output will be same as the one you have specified above.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Parth.
