Cross tab formatting issue

Post Author: forumguy
CA Forum: General
Hi Guys,
I am using crystal 10. The cross tab is in the group.
It was giving me a blank page in the middle of the report. So, unchecked the "Keep together" in the section expert in the group. And the Blank page was gone. But now with "Keep together option" unchecked, it gives error " Error formatting the cross tab" after one particular page.
Is there any other way to remove that blank page ?
Appreciate ur comments.
Thanks

in Properties --> Display --> Show all rows/columns, but it is not working when
i am using Cross Tab format for the same data.

Ram

Hi Sunil,
Happy to see your solution. My requirement is that if you have a data like
SBU,                   Cadre,                Value
Chemical Buss,     Manger,                  45
Crop Buss,            Workmen,               63
Agri Buss,              Executive,              70
Chemical Buss,     Executive,              84
Agri Buss,              Workmen,              -
Crop Buss,                 -,                        -
So now we need to get the rows or columns that are having blank values. Say like if Crop Buss is not having any values so it wont be displayed, but actually it has to be displayed.

Display Data in Cross Tab Format...Per Quarter

Hi Team,
I have following issue...which i am struggling to solve...
My current report format is
Material Technology - Q1(Qty) Q2(QTY) Q3(QTY) Q4(QTY) - Q1(Pirce) Q2(Pirce) Q3(Pirce) Q4(Pirce) - Q1(Rate) Q2(Rate) Q3(Rate) Q4(Rate)
I have generated cross tab report...in which i am getting following display...
Material Technology Q1(Qty) Q1(Price) Q1(Rate) and so on...
Is there any way i can get the required format...please assist..
Q1 to Q4 - Quarter 1 to 4...
regards
nic

Hi Nic,
The problem is you have 3 measure objects available: qty, price and rate.
If you put them in a vertical table then you will have 3 columns. As soon as you put in the quarter to create the crosstab BO will the for each quarter display the qty, price and rate.
To solve your problem is to not create a cross-tab, but a vertical table.
For each measure object you crreate 4 new variables (type measure) using the the formula:
E.g. for the quantity in the first quarter you create variable like: qty_q1
=<qty> Where (<quarter> = 1)
The same you do for the quantities for the other quarters.
And you do the same for the price and rate.
Ending up with 12 new variables which you can put in a vertical table in any order you like.

Unable to bold a cell verticle line in Cross-tab Format Grid Lines

Hi
I am unable to bold a random Cell vertical line inside the cross-tab. My cross-tab is having access database which pulls every data correctly,
To elaborate , here is the images to make it clear.
First one is the current output of cross-tab & 2nd one is the desired output :
To make it more clear ,
I am giving the screenshot of Format grid lines option, when I have selected Cell vertical lines , I can change Line options (Like style,width,color) from it. When I change it, it changes all three lines simultaneously. But, in that, I just want to bold only the last line of this grid.
The screenshot as follows (To denote the lines, I have put numbering under the vertical lines, where I want to bold only the third one) :
Please let me know, if any solution to this. I m using CRVS_13.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
try to do this way..
Right click on crosstab - > crosstab expert -> customize style -> select your particular column then goto Format Grid Lines -> select your particular one based view -> ok..
I hope this not yet possible because select 1 automatically 2,3 vertical lines are selected..
See how it works......Please update ASAP

Cross tab formatting in Infoview

I uploaded a Crystal 2008 report into Infoview product version 12.1.0. The report contains indented row labels in the cross tab. When I view the report in Infoview, the indents don't display nicely indented. Instead, they almost look centered, which defeats the purpose of this feature. Anyone know whether I'm doing something wrong or maybe it's a version/Infoview setting issue?
Thx.

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

Cross Tab Formatting a summarized field

Hi All,
I have a field that is summerized in my crosstab. However, I want to be able to take that number and format it in HH:MM:SS and am having difficulty accomplishing this. In my drill down reports I was able to do this with ease. Could someone help me out in this regard?
Thank you in advance,

You should be able to create a formula, something like this
and then add the formula to the cross tab
whileprintingrecords;
NumberVar Hours1;
NumberVar Minutes1;
NumberVar Seconds1;
NumberVar TimeBreak;
TimeBreak:= 0;
if Sum (, , "daily") = 0 then 0 else
TimeBreak:= Sum (, , "daily");
Hours1:=(Truncate(TimeBreak/3600));
Minutes1:=(Truncate(Remainder(TimeBreak,3600)/60));
Seconds1:=(Remainder(Remainder(TimeBreak,3600),60));
//Display the time formated.
ctime(hours1,Minutes1,seconds1)
This example, is grouped by RowDate by day, and converts the seconds (Auxtime2) to
HH:MM:SS

Cross Tab Formatting Problem when exported to excel

can anyone help? How to restrict call_id to fit in single cell?
Thanks,
Jyothi

Yeah.. crystal has giving some issues while exporting reports without SPs, especialy previous versions.
So Better to install latest SP or patches for CR 10.0. I think SP 6 is the updated one for CR10.0.
For More info Go through this link,

Crystal Reports 10 Cross Tab Report Issue

I created a Cross Tab Report with multiple rows of data. It has two columns to return data for Year 2008 and Year 2009. When reading the database the report does not return data for rows that have a result of 0 in both columns even though Suppress Empty Rows is NOT checked in the Cross Tab Expert Customize Style Tab. Any suggestions as to how to get all of the rows to display including those with results of 0?

I'm guessing that your issue is that "results of 0" is really a lack of data, not that something is there and is summing to zero.
In that case, you need to base your report on an SQL Command. Take the SQL that the report is currently using, and UNION it with another select statement that returns all of the rows that you are looking for with zero values; something like this:
UNION
select category, 0 as PY_Value, 0 as CY_Value
from categories
This will cause the data to be there, which will cause the rows to display on the cross tab.

Cross-Tab Formating

Can you conditionally format a cell in a cross-tab based on the value in other cells? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can use similar condition.
IF GETCOLUMNGROUPINDEXOF(CURRENTCOLUMNINDEX)= 1 AND GRIDROWCOLUMNVALUE(u201CMONTHu201D)=u201DJANu201D AND GRIDVALUEAT(CURRENTROWINDEX, GETCOLUMNPATHINDEXOF(u201CJANu201D), CURRENTSUMMARYINDEX) > 5000 THEN
CRRED
ELSE
CRBLACK
This example will highlight amount in red color under January month column where the amount is greater than 5000.
Hope this helps.

Cross tab column issue

I have a cross tab report that has three column fields. I want to design the report such that when the outer most column (1st column) field get repeated again it should appear at a certain gap from the first one.
By default crystal report shows all the columns joined together with no space in between.
e.g lets say that column has three values A,B and C. I want to have the cross tab report to have gaps between these three matrices that get displayed. i.e. A with its sub columns and summary values then a slight gap followed by B with its sub columns and summary values and so on.
Please Help.

Is the show cell margins option checked or not.If unchecked please check it and see the results.
If this doesnot work you can right click on the summary field and in the Display String add formula
" "+CStr(CurrentFieldValue)+" "
Hope this helps

Tab formatting issues

I am using the "Basic" template for my book and I am having some issues with tabs.
Basically I have a list like this in iBooks Author.
Landscape mode. ( -> represents a tab)
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-3
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-3
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-4
Some Text ->     ->     ->     3
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-3
Portrait mode does this.
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-3
Some Text ->       ->       ->       2-3
Some Text ->       ->       ->       2-4
Some Text ->     ->     ->     3
Some Text ->     ->     ->     2-3
I played with the tabs and finally got it to look ok in iBooks Author, but my iPad nows does it.
Any thoughts would be appreciated on fixing this issue. I would like everything to look the same.
Cheers,
Rhek

I could really use some help. I have a book ready to go except for this issue.

Cross Tab Format Report

Hi,
I have data like this in xcelsius data sheet,
        A                B            C
1   State         Month       Sales
2   Austin       Jan           200
3 Austin        Feb           300
4 Austin        Mar           400
5 Texas        Jan            400
6 Texas        Feb           200
7 Texas        Mar           500
8 DC             JAn          100
9 DC             Feb           300
10 DC            Mar           150
I want to aggregate the sales values in the following format,
        H                 I             J               K
1     State           Jan        Feb           Mar
2     Austin         200        300          400
3     Texas         400        200          500
4     DC               100       300           150
I used SUMIFS function, unfortunately Xcelsius does not support this function.
Is there any work around to get the values in desired format using Excel functions.
Sorry in the preview the format is not shown properly, but iam looking for something like crosstab report format.
Regards
Sudhakar

Hi Sudhakar,
One way to do this is to create a new column say column D which contains a concatenation of columns A and B e.g.
     A     B     C     D
1     State     Month     Sales     Combined
2     Austin     Jan     200     AustinJan
3     Austin     Feb     300     AustinFeb
4     Austin     Mar     400     AustinMar
5     Texas     Jan     400     TexasJan
6     Texas     Feb     200     TexasFeb
7     Texas     Mar     500     TexasMar
8     DC     JAn     100     DCJAn
9     DC     Feb     300     DCFeb
10     DC     Mar     150     DCMar
The use this formula in cell I2 which can then be copied down and accross as required =SUMIF($D$2:$D$10,$H2&I$1,$C$2:$C$10)
That is where the setup is as you described above i.e.
     H     I     J     K
1     State     Jan     Feb     Mar
2     Austin     200     300     400
3     Texas     400     200     500
4     DC     100     300     150

Cross Tab issue , Need a Help

HI Expery
In BO Webi report need to show dynamic columns in Report after transposing rows to columns.
Data in Table is like below:
Col1     Col2     Col3
101     Abc     801
101     Abc     802
101     Abc     803
101     Abc     804
101     Abc     805
102     RNM     2009
102     RNM     2010
102     RNM     2011
103     RYZ     3465
In Report It should be as
Col1     Col2     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3
101     Abc     801     802     803     804     805
102     RNM     2009     2010     2011
103     RYZ     3465
We have tried implementing the same using cross tab , but issue is in Cross col3 grows with all values present for all records. Here, if we use cross tab we are getting result as below:
Col1     Col2     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3     Col3
101     Abc     801     802     803     804     805     2009     2010     2011     3465
102     RNM     801     802     803     804     805     2009     2010     2011     3465
103     RYZ     801     802     803     804     805     2009     2010     2011     3465

Hi Ahmed
You can use the below logic.
col1 & col2 u can keep it as columns in a cross tab. Now keep col3 as row but here you need to do one thing . Click on the formula button for col3 field and then write the following syntax in it.
= col3 IN ([Col1];[col2])
By using this calculation context it will fetch only the data which is related to the first two columns. so the extra data which u were mentioning about will got to the next row.

Suppressing levels in cross tab.

Hello All,
I have a project requirenment for one of the client and currently using CR 2008 for creating dynamic reports based on a finance database for profitabilty Analysis. I have been using lot of Web-Elements functionality in my crystal application and its going good to an extent, the only issue i have been experiencing is the dynamic change of the cross tab data based on prompts.
Its a 4 level application where in users are prompted to select a specific level outta the 4 levels, they can select either few or all. Now, the issue is, in my cross tab i have mentioned all the 4 levels in my row field and the data is displayed according to the users selection through prompts, it works fine. But however if user does not select level 3 or 4 or any one of them then the specific cross tab row is displayed empty. I have tried selecting the option suppress empty rows under customize tab but that doesnt seem to work.
I want only those levels to be displayed which are selected by users and suppress the rest, the empty rows in cross tab looks kinda odd to see. I am unable to figure out the formula string for the same.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

Hi
Cross tab is nothing but a tabular representation of data.
It displays zero values only when there is no data for the combination of corresponding row and column.
We can not suppress this however we can display some string like "No data for this" or something else as per requirement.
For this, do the below:
- Right click on the summary value field on the cross tab -> Format Field.
- Under Common Tab, click on X-2 for Display string. This would open the formula editor.
- Put the below formula there:
if IsNull(summary database field) then "No data for here"
else "" & currentfieldvalue;
You can change the display string as per requirement.
Hope this helps!!

I need to develop a cross tab format in RTF using template builder. Can we get this in matrix report using the standard wizard given in template builder or else it should be done manual. If it can be done through wizard can u please explain the process.
And one more think what is the latest version of template builder available. In few cases its given as pivot table and in few its given as cross tab. I confused by that.
This seems to be basic doubt, but please guide me.
Regards

i,
I am developing cross tab report with group in BI Publisher(i.e matrix with group above report in report builder).
My req.is

d1 d2 d3 d1 d2 d3 d1 d2 d3 --(level2 column)
Row1 10 15 18 24 38 40 36 35 78 --data
Row2 -- -- -- --- --- -- - -- -- --
regions(level1 columns) and d1,d2,d3(level2 columns) are data depenent on XML data.
d1,d2 d3 may change in number based on data.Also we have page break on country.
We could able to achieve in report builder but in Bi Publisher we are unable to achieve the same.
Wizard in BI Publisher gives only one level of measure(region) only.
Currently we are using BI Publisher template builder version 10.1.3.2.1
Need help in this regard ASAP.
Thanks in advance.
