Jaspal,
the best way to get the Column names in Cross tab report
WebI does not provide automatic column headings once you go into Cross tab. The easiest way to achieve is to click once on the top most cell, then right-click and choose insert, insert a row above. Once the row is inserted, then in each column you can place a header by manual intervention.
Thanks,
John

To Merge Cross Tab Header in Web-I XI R2

Hello All,
I have one cross tab report and Its header is Name field.When we run the report, suppose we get 15 columns so 15 times the report header displays the "Name" in cross tab. I want to display the 'Name ' field only once in middle of cross tab header.
The Scenario :--
     Name     Name     Name     Name     Name     Name     Name     Name

Hide Cross Tab Header

Post Author: lbassil
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
All,
I want to know if it's possible to hide the header of a cross tab? The suppress option did supress the header, but leaves space equal to the height of the header. So I tried to set the height = 0, i could not do it because the minimum height is 70 (as I concluded). Any clue?
Anyone can help in this issue? Either tell me how to make the height of the cross tab header = 0, or how to stop repeating the column header of the cross tab on each new page?
Regards.

Hi!
if i've correctly understood your question:
click on your left into the section "document structure and filters) (incon paper with a pencil)
right click on your cross table block and select "format table"
on the option page that come up there is on the right a flag "show top header".
remove it a click ok!
i hope this help!

Visual studio cross tab report design problem

I have visual studio 2008 and its default crystal reports.
I have created a cross tab report that has a lot of columns and only 3 rows.
So the total number of pages that get printed are 34. (with 12 columns at the top of each page since the xtab is in report header).
My client wants me to utilize the space left at the bottom of the page by having 12 columns at the top and 12 columns at the bottom of the page.
I don't know how this can be achieved.
If the problem is not clear then let me know I'll try to explain more.
I am on a deadline here so please help me.

Hello,
I suggest you also search Forums, there are multiple posting on how to add multiple Xtabs.
This is a public area for all to use and not a case management system. If you are in a hurry I suggest you contact Support after purchasing a support incident and have a dedicated Engineer help you directly. You can get one from this link:

Cross Tab Header

Hi everyone!
I have a problem with a cross table. I don't know how many columns will be displayed and I need an header row that covers all the dynamic columns... how can I get a layout like this?
|----------------------------HEADER--------------------------|
| col 1 | col 2 | col 3 | col 4 | col 5 | col 6 | col 7 |
| val 1 | val 2 | val 3 | val 4 | val 5 | val 6 | val 7 |
Thanks so!
DrPlexi

You can merge columns :
define variable var = count of columns. you need count them report!
<xsl:variable name="var"><?C?></xsl:variable>
This tag write in the header cell:
<xsl:attribute xdofo:ctx="block" name="number-columns-spanned"><xsl:value-of select="$var" /></xsl:attribute>

Header displaying problem

Hello. I'm meeting a rather unpleasant problem on my PowerMac G5 with Mac OS X 10.4.6 at work.
Despite the fact I have not changed anything to my configuration nor installed anything new on this Mac, Mail just started today displaying some things differently, in a weird way. Here is a screen capture to let you see what it is like.
NB: I blurred some stuff for privacy reasons, please pay attention to how the header of the read mail is diplayed.
Can anyone help me to make it work back the way it used to?

Tabbed Panels display problem

I'm trying to add a spry tabbed panel to a website. When I preview it - there are bullets next to the tabs. How do I eliminate them?

I have run into a similar problem occasionally, and have also noticed that it only affects the view in Design View in the Document Window.
In my experience, your best bet is to edit your material in Code View (it doesn't jump around at all there!). Another strategy is to turn off some of your visual editing aids, in case they are the cause of your tabbed panels jumping.
As you will see in Code View, the tabs themselves live in one section of the code and the corresponding panels live in a section lower down. If you are careful, you should have no trouble at all editing directly in Code View.

Displaying Alternate row as colored in Cross tab

Hi,
I have a report where I need to display alternate rows as colored.
There is some data in detail section followed by a cross tab in the report header section.
While I am able to display alternate rows as colored in Detail secction for displaying alternate colored rows in Cross tab data I need some help.
Data in cross tab is like this
              history geography
Tammy   90          60
Sid         80          50
Julia       70        40
In cross tab for displaying alternate colored rows ie for alternate student names I am using two formulas
- for displaying row values I am using this one
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar d;
d := iif(d=100,255,100);
color(255,255,d);
For displaying alternate colored inner cells ie marks I am using this formula
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar c;
c := iif(c =255,100,255);
color(255,255,c)
I got these formulas after doing Googling
My cross tab is present in report footer and in the generated report it comes separeated in two pages.
In the first page data for Tammy and Sid is displayed while Julia is displayed on next page.
Now the Tammy is coming as yellow colored and as expected Sid is coming as white colored. However Julia which is on next page is coming as white , but logically it should have come as yellow. On the other hand my column data ie marks column is coming fine. Data for tammy and sid is coming as alternately colored and data is Julia on the next page is coming as yellow(as data for Sid is in white)
I am not able to understand why this is happening and what is the correct way to do alternate row coloring in cross tabs

Where is your variable c being reset.
If in page header or group header and you have repaet group header on new page then c will be reset on each page.
If In groupheader try adding this to reset formula
if not inrepeatedgroupheader then

Cross tab column headers display on all pages

I made a Crystal Report with a cross tab which displays all details. In the cross tab I have 6 columns with details about the data displayed in the last 2 columns. The headers of these columns are only displayed on the first page but not on other pages. How can I add column headers to all pages? Thank you.

Column headings should be repeated automatically, row headings can be repeated by
1.right-clicking on the row header
2. select Row options
3. .select Repeat Labels on Page break
or, when I just reviewed it in the help section it says:
"When you create a Cross-Tab that is wider or longer than the specified page size, the program automatically spans the printing across enough pages to accommodate the size of the Cross-Tab. In the Preview tab, a line will appear at each page break. For ease in reading, column headings will be repeated on subsequent pages. Row headings can also be repeated using the Keep Columns Together option.
To repeat row labels
Right-click the blank top-left area of the Cross-Tab and select Cross-Tab Expert from the shortcut menu.
The Cross-Tab Expert appears.
Click the Customize Style tab.
Select the Repeat Row Labels check box, if desired.
Crystal Reports lets you designate report objects that don't expand horizontally, such as text objects, field objects, OLE objects, charts, maps, lines, boxes, and so on, to be repeated on each additional horizontal page that a Cross-Tab creates. For more information, see Repeating report objects on horizontal pages."

Need a multi-level control break report displaying a cross-tab for each ...

I need a multi-level control break report that displays a cross-tab report for each
detail and subtotal. The individual cross-tabs are no problem. There are two issues:
1) How to get many cross-tabs (thousands) to appear in one report.
2) How to provide cross-tabs in-line on the multi-level subtotal lines.
Here is a concrete example.
Suppose the data base contains this table:
road (
id_number number, -- this is an artificial PK
city varchar2,
county varchar2,
state varchar2,
length number,
owner varchar2, -- roads may be owned by cities, counties, states, and others
surface_type varchar2 -- the surface type may be gravel, asphalt, concrete, and others
The table is populated with several million records that include every
length of road in a US city.
It is OK to suppose that all the attributes in all the records are not null.
Without the PK, there would be millions of duplicates,
which should all contribute to the summed lengths.
The report I need is like a control break report with a detail line for each
city together with subtotals for each county and state and
a grand total for the US at the end.
However, each detail and total line needs to be a cross-tab report
summing the length over the city, county, state or US
(whichever is called for at that location)
for each combination of owner and surface_type.
so the report would have the following structure:
a city cross-tab for the first city in county 1/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 1/state 1
a cross-tab for count 1
a city cross tab for the first city in county 2/state 1
a city cross tab for the last city in county 2/state 1
a cross tab for state 1
a cross-tab for the US
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
This problem comes up because my client's legacy system,
which is being replaced,
already has such a report (in COBOL).
Thanks!!!
Steve
PS, I know one ugly way to do it. Namely, make a variable for each
possible combination of owner and surface. Then code an ordinary control
break report. However, I am looking for something better.

Hi Jenna_Fire,
According to your description, you have a matrix contains total for each group on each level. Now your requirement is, when you click on any number (data field or total), it will go to the detail report which returns all the detail information of the people
within the group scope. For example, if you click on the total of Active users in United States, it will return the detail information of Active users in New York and Texas. Right?
In this scenario, we should set the parameter (@Country, @State, @City) allow multiple values in both main and detail report. And in Default Value (@Country, @State, @City), query out all distinct values. In the textbox which contains
those total values, when set use these parameters to run the report, we only need to pass the parameters of parent groups. For example, if we click on the total of Active users in New York, we only need to pass Country, State, Status to detail report, and
in the detail report, the City parameter will use all distinct values (Default Values) because we don't pass the City parameter. We have tested this case with sample data in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create parameter Country, State, City and Status in both main report and detail report. Set both Available Value and Default Value get values from query (Create a dataset for each parameter, use "select distinct [column] from [table]" as query). Set allow
multiple values for parameter Country, State and City in both reports.
2. In corresponding textbox, pass appropriate parameters in go to report Action.
4. Filter data in detail report (in where clause or using filters).
5. Save and preview. It looks like below:

If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Cross-Tab - conditional suppression and formatting

I have a cross-tab report of "widgets" sold. There are $10 widgets, $20 widgets, and $50 widgets. All widgets will always cost some round dollar amount, never anything like $10.99. My report shows weekly, month-to-date, and year-to-date sales for each widget denomination by both count and total amount by state. For example:
                               $10                          $20                              $50
     count     amount       count       amount         count       amount
New York
       Week        5             $50           4                 $80             1               $50
        MTD
        YTD
Delaware         1              $10
etc.
I also have totals by row, along with mark-up amounts (11% of gross sales amounts) and net sales (gross - mark-up). These last 3 columns are included in my dataset, not calculated in the cross-tab.
My problem is that I can't figure out how to do 2 things:
1. the count columns for mark-up and net will always be blank, so I want to suppress the "count" column header
2. I want to display the dollar amounts for those 2 columns with 2 decimal places, but the other amounts with no decimals.
Can this be done, and if so, how?
Thanks!
Phil

Hi Phil,
I also found the following information under Cross-tab Help for suppressing rows or columns. I hope this is what you're looking for. Sylvie
To suppress empty rows and columns
Right-click the blank top-left area of the Cross-Tab and select Cross-Tab Expert from the shortcut menu.
The Cross-Tab Expert appears.
Click the Customize Style tab.
Select either the Suppress Empty Rows or Suppress Empty Columns check box.
Click OK.
Now, when you print the report, empty rows and/or columns will not appear.
To suppress row and column grand totals
Right-click the blank top-left area of the Cross-Tab and select Cross-Tab Expert from the shortcut menu.
The Cross-Tab Expert appears.
Click the Customize Style tab.
Select either the Suppress Row Grand Totals or Suppress Column Grand Totals check boxes.
Click OK.
To suppress subtotals and their labels
If you have more than two groups in your Cross-Tab you can suppress the subtotal and label for one of them.
Right-click the blank top-left area of the Cross-Tab and select Cross-Tab Expert from the shortcut menu.
The Cross-Tab Expert appears.

Bug – CR 2011 cross tab number decimal formula not executing

I have a formula to format the number of decimal points in both the column and row header values in a cross tab subreport. The formula does not appear to execute. If I display the data in a simple table format and use the same decimal formula the format is correct.
cross tab header, decimals not displayed correctly
Data when displayed in a simple table using the same formula, decimals are displayed correctly

Hi Paul,
Here's another way:
Remove the formula you've used under 'Decimal' for the cells in the crosstab.
Right-click one of the cells > Format Field > Common tab > Click the formula button beside 'Display String' and use this code:
numbervar x := CurrentFieldValue;
numbervar ipart;
numbervar decpart;
ipart := int(x) ;
decpart := x - ipart;
if ipart > 0 then
totext(ipart,0)
else if decpart > 0 then
Replace(totext(decpart),"0","")

Help with Cross-tab

Hello everyone...
Here is some quick background info on my project:
1) I am attempting to write a Crystal Report (version 10) to automatically capture crime statistics for a previous time period based on a current time period entered into the Crystal Report parameter. The current date range to automatically be captured is the previous seven weeks. For example, if a user enters the date range of June 15, 2008 - August 2, 2008, the Crystal Report will automatically gather data for the two date ranges of April 27, 2008 - June 14, 2008 (the previous date range) and June 15, 2008 - August 2, 2008 (the current date range). The purpose of this is to automatically gather crime statistics for two equal date ranges to compare crime rates.
2) I have been able to successfully construct a formula to gather the previous date range.
3) I have constructed a cross-tab but I am having difficulties formatting the cross-tab to display data as I desire.
With the background of my project now described I will move into the main problem I am experiencing. I am able to display the data for all the necessary weeks in the cross-tab; using the same date range above I am able to show data for the fourteen weeks of April 27, 2008 - August 2, 2008. However, I wish to have a single cross-tab display the grand totals for just the previous date range while having weekly totals and a grand total for the current date range.
Using the same date ranges above as an example, the date range of April 27, 2008 - June 14, 2008 will show just the grand totals for all seven weeks of that period. Conversely, I would like to have the date range of June 15, 2008 - August 2, 2008 show weekly totals as well as grand totals for all seven weeks of that period.
I would like to keep all this data in a single cross-tab due to having to put the data in another crime analysis report.
Any help you can provide is most appreciated...let me know if I can provide further info. Just so you know I am a bit of a beginner when it comes to Crystal Reports.

Hello, you might try this:
1) Create a formula field in your details section with this:
Whileprintingrecords;
If (table.date >= "start date of your pre-date range" and
table.date <= "end date of your pre-date range") then 'Pre-Date'
else
if (table.date >= "your 1st week start" and table.date <= "your 1st week end") then 'Week 1'
else (if table.date >= "your 2nd week start" and table.date <= "your 2nd week end") then 'Week 2'
else .... for the 7 weeks you want a separate column.
2) create the cross-tab and put the formula field as the column.
3) I believe if you right-click on the total field to the far right and "Format Field" you can use the "Display String" option to delete the sum of the previous week's from the CurrentFieldValue and use the TOTEXT() function to display it. This will only display the sum of your current 7 weeks.
You may want to go change the "Group Options" for the column to Sort in "Specified Order" and create named groups for each of your column headings. I can explain how you would do this if you need it.

Can't limit cross tab records

I am using cross tabs in my report to list students and their scores. I would like to list three students per page. Ex. if there are nine students then I should have a three page report containing three students per page.
What I am currently getting with the cross tabs is as many students on a page that can fit and the rest will run off of the page. Is there a way I can limit the number of records a cross tab will display on a page??

Aminah,
You will need to break the students into groups of 3 and then place the crosstab in the Group Header (or Footer).
To break the students into groupings of 3 you will need 2 formulas,
1) The first formula is in the report header and initializes the counter;
BeforeReadingRecords;
numbervar y:=1;
2) The second formula increments for every third student;
WhileReadingRecords;
stringvar array b;
numbervar y;
numbervar z;
numbervar a;
numbervar c:= c + 1;
If not ( {student field} in b) then
if y = 3 then redim b[3] else redim preserve b[3];
b[y]:={student field};
if c=1 then a:= 0 else a:= a + 1;
y:= y + 1;
if remainder(a,3) = 0 then z:= z + 1;);
if y = 3 then y:= 1;
z;
3) Group on the second formula and place the crosstab in the group header

Cross Tab Report

Hi,
I'm creating a report in Crystal 2008 for SAP Business One. This report is a sales report and i want to pull the data from three tables namely Invoice Rows, Credit Memo Rows and Down Payment Invoice Rows. Other selections in the report include the Posting Periods table, Items Group Table and the Items Master Data table.
I'm considering a cross tab report displaying the Items Group on the Row level and the Posting Periods on the columns with Sum of row totals for item groups per items on invoice,credit memo or down payment.
I need help regarding the kind of joining is needed to ensure that i get a correct and good report showing total sales made for item groups per period. Thus, total sales = Invoice+Downpayment - Credit Memo
Thanks.
John

You can also user OJDT as the base and left join it to the Invoice, Credit note and Downpayment tables by linking DocEntry and the object tpye.
With this option, you need to use IF statement to read information based on object type.
Using command as suggested is simpler. However, my preference is to use command alone.
Linking Command with Tables seems to have slower performance.
