Using sub-report field in cross tab row #2

I have a sub-report that pulls a product line description that need to be added to row #2 of a cross tab object. I am unable to drag and dropped and it does not appear in the list under the cross tabs expert. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Edmund,
You cannot add fields from the Subreport to a Crosstab in the Main Report.
If you're trying to add data for multiple rows, you would need to bring those values as part of the Main report's query.

Formula for cross tab row

Post Author: bvandyck
CA Forum: Formula
The results of a row in a cross tab report need to be split out by percentages and added to the results of other rows. Each row is an individual, except one row is a combination of individuals. Certain individuals share in the results of the combination row. The combination row will be zero after being added to the individuals' rows. What is the formula for achieving this?

Hi,
U may create a new formula for that.
There is an option in cross tab expert for new formula.
U may create a formula of your choice and then insert in report.

Cross Tab Column Header and Embedded or Calculated Member

Hello All
I am needing some help with a Cross Tab in CR2008.
My Cross Tab look as follows:
Rows______________Columns
......................................Fiscal Year
Account Number...........Summarized Field (Value Field)
The report spans three Fiscal Years but not all accounts have three Fiscal Years worth of data so some Cross tabs start 2009, 2008, 2007, Some report 2008 and 2007, Some just 2007 (and other variations). To get my cross tab working correctly I need to create a formula that get the CurrentColumnIndex based upon the Fiscal Year. e.g. If columnd header = 2009 column index = 0.
Can anyone advise how I would go about this?
Thanks
Phillip

Phillip, go to your data source, and see if you can add a new connection,
one of those options should be (Command)
if you can add a Command, then you can put the SQL in the command section.
You will need to add the Command as a data source, and remove the old
data source once the command is added, you will be able to edit it if needed.

Minimise Cross Tab Row spacing

Hi,
I have created a Cross Tab table using Crystal Report 2008.
On the rows are list of warehouses eg: Warehouse A, Warehouse B etc.
I know I can minimise / change the font size and the Row label size by right click on the field, Size and Position eg: Warehouse A.
However, is there a way to adjustment the space between each row? Ie, the white space between the row box that show Warehouse A, Warehouse B etc.
What I am trying to achieve here is to fit 3 cross tab table into one page, while still keeping font size of the row at Arial 8.
Hope I have explained myself well and thank for your help in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for responding.
Is there a way to specify the width of the cell margin instead of totally remove it?

Customized Sort for Cross-Tab Row

I have a simple Cross-Tab on my report that needs to be sorted in a static Row order.
My cross tab has 1 Row (Name) and 1 column (Total Sales).
Currently the CrossTab sorts the Name Alphabetically (ASC). But I need to specify a specific order. I have added a numeric field to my table and I assign a numeric value to the last names so that I might be able to sort the Name Row based on my "CustomSortOrder" numeric field.
Currently it looks something like this:
A
B
C
D
E
I want it to be: (numeric value behind the scenes)
C (1)
D (2)
E (3)
A (4)
B (5)
ALL OTHERS (9999)
I cant seem to figure out where I need to set this. I have tried adding a group to the report. I have tried setting the Report Sort order. I am out of ideas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jimmy,
Here's what you need to do :
1) Go to the Crosstab Expert > Remove the existing 'name' field from the 'Row'
3) Add the numeric field as the 'Row'
4) Select the Row > Group Options > Options Tab > Customize Group Name Field > Use formula as a Group Name > Click the formula button beside and use this code:
If {numeric_field} = 9999 then "All Others"
else
{Name_Field}

Date Periods in Cross Tab rows

Firstly please note that I am still some what of a novice.
I am using Crystal X and appear to be experiencing some inconstancies in how the dates are being grouped when the Period extends over two Financial years (e.g. in Australia it is 07/08). When I add the Date value {@InspectedDate} and then format as per the following:
//DB - Financial Year: ({@InspectedDate})
If Month ({@InspectedDate}) >= 7 and Month ({@InspectedDate}) <= 12
Then Cstr(Year ({@InspectedDate}),0,"") + "/" + Cstr(Year ({@InspectedDate})+1,0,"")
Else If Month ({@InspectedDate}) >= 1 and Month ({@InspectedDate}) <= 6
Then Cstr(Year ({@InspectedDate})-1,0,"") + "/" + Cstr(Year ({@InspectedDate}),0,"")
Else "Error"
I end up with two groupings of 2007/2008 even though some of the dates are in the 2008/2009 period.
Then if I use a String value e.g. {@FinancialYear} I end up with the one period 2008/2009 and the second row (which was set up into quarters) displays the five quarters as part of 2008/2009.

Mr. Guillen,
I faced the same problem but not in date, it was in time ( such as 02:45). The result which is coming in your report is only due to the output is of string type, this type of problem I have solved through creating Views and displaying the field from views instead of table.
Well, you know your DB more and if it is possible then create a view to get the output in your report.

How do I suppress Cross Tab row subtotals?

Hi. I've created a specified order group, which forces my rows to subtotal at each line. Thus, Income now has specified account numbers that subtotal on each number, then on the group Income. How do suppress the account row subtotals? I'm using CR 2008.
Thanks!

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!!

Cross tab & Line Graph – Data Sorting issue

Hi,
Want to display data in specific order in cross tab row & in graph as shown below

In the same order data has been retrieved from the database but when it comes to Crystal report, its reordering the data in alphabetical order as shown below due to the order set in Group option
Example: 1
ABC
Average
Median
Example: 2
Average
Median
XYZ
Please note u201CAverageu201D & Medianu201D are constant but Account name will vary based on selection.
How this can be achieved? How Specific Order can be used in this case?

Hi
Under "chart expert" in "data" tab where you add the fields in chart you see "on change of" and "show" values..
After adding the required on "change of fields" if you would highlight that field "group option" tab will get enabled where you will find the "sort order" drop down. There is an option "In Original Order" which will sort the fields as fetched from Database
Same option is available in Cross-Tab

Cross-tab and hyperlinks

Is it possible to have each rows of a cross-tab be a hyperlink poiting to another report and how to accomplish that?
My cross-tab rows represent categories, and I have another report for sub-categories (with category name as parameter), I'd like to be able to click a category and view the detail for that category.
Thanks for your help!

you need to try using open doc URL
"http://<servername>/businessobjects/Enterprise11.5/InfoView/scripts/opendocument.aspx?sPath=Report+Samples&sDocName=Target.rpt"
to pass the category to your sub report parameter you need to use currentfieldvalue

Creating a header for rows/columns in cross-tab with syntax

Hi,
The issue is creating strings for rows or columns' headers. How can I create a formula field which contains more than one seperate string. Such as "aaa", "bbb" and "ccc" are headers and they should be in seperate columns. In short, they will behave like characteristics of one of my query's field but they are just headers of the columns.
..............aaa...bbb...ccc....
row1.......x.......x........x.....
row2.......y.......y........y.....
Also there is another issue about the formulation again. Is there any operator that does the same job as " \n" which is used in C languages to break the line?
before:
aaabbb
after:
aaa
bbb

Hi Carl;
Firstly, thanks for answering my question. To explain my problem there are two options ahead(for my first question); first one is writing down the actions step by step, the second one is posting an image file(jpeg etc) to visualize it. I think the first one will be enough. If not tell me
Step 1- Create a cross-tab and right click and select cross-tab expert.
Step 2- Click the button "New Formula" and write down any word(such as "Sales") between two -"- sign to make it string.Then save and close.
Step 3- Drag and drop the created formula to "columns" section and fill the other necessary sections with your database's(such as xtreme.mdb which is famous for crystal users) fields.Don't forget to add another column value to "columns" section, since our formula has no link to database.
Step 4- Then click OK to save the changes and lets preview the cross-tab.The result will have one top column and his child or children(that depends on your data). And this top column is behaving like a header not a field.
Now turn the second step but write down a formula for 2 columns or more.For exmple "Sales" and "Profit".So the result will have 2 top columns and their child/children.
My question is "what is the formula for 2 or more columns?"
Also I couldn't get the answer for my second question. What is the meaning of expressions "\c" and ChrW(13)?

How to Display two different objects in a single table header in Cross Tab?

i All,
I've a reqiurement for a Cross Tab Report like I need two different objects that should be displayed side-by-side, one object's values after another in a single header. In the picture below I've shown the objects separately in two rows, top header having BSNLNL,MTNLNL,RCOMNL and Header-2 having AIRTIL,RCOMIL. But requirements needs to be showing like this,
BSNLNL
MTNLNL
RCOMNL
AIRTIL
RCOMIL
Actually, the data for the header comes from a single object called Operator. I've show the Operators name ending with NL and after that names ending with IL. So, i've separated the data into two variables using the below formulae.
IL:
=[Billing Operator]
Where
Match([Billing Operator];"*IL")=1
NL:
=[Billing Operator]
Where
Match([Billing Operator];"*NL")=1
Also, the NL data should start first and after the NL data's last value ends, the IL data should begin.
One more thing is that I've to show '0' for null values. So i've used the below formulae on the column data. You can see below that except the "Outgoing ILD Mins in the month from Mobile Network" everything else showing fine. I don't understand why.
=If
Substr([Franchise];3;1)="M"
Then
   [Mobile Outgoing Charged Usage Minutes]
   Else
   0
I tried different approaches but couldn't find a solution. Could you please help me?
I'm using BO WebI 4.1 SP1
Regards,
Naren Vema.

Hi Naren,
No need to split Billing Operator object. Create a variable-
V_IL_NL= If Match([Billing Operator];"*IL")=1 Then "IL" ElseIf Match([Billing Operator];"*NL")=1 Then "NL"
1) Put V_IL_NL variable below Billing Operator object header.
2) Sort and create break on this variable.
3) Delete Footer column. it will automatically create when you apply break.
4) Hide V_IL_NL variable from this header.

Row Headers in Cross Tab Report -Crystal Report XI

I am trying to create a cross tab report. The report has 4 rows and the columns get generated based on the value of a database field.
I have 2 questions
Question 1 : I want the rows to have headers. I insert text objects in the report and when I run the report in crystal, the headers are displaying as required. But when I export to excel, the headers are displayed after the data. How can I create row headers and get them exported to excel as row headers.
Question 2: I am creating the column based on a database field. The field is of text data type. The sorting for this filed is 1. abc ,10. abc , 11.abc , 2.abc , 3.abc ; etc where abc is a text string. How can I sort the columns so that the columns appear as 1.abc, 2.abc, 3.abc etc.
I tried using the specified order sorting, but when I check the list of values that it creates to select the values, it is truncating the values. I can only see part of the values from the database.
Please Help!!!

I don't have Crystal in front of me so I will try to do this from memory. If you right click on a report object, there is option on one of the tabs (I think it is General) that says Display String with a corresponding X button. If you click on that, then you can enter a text expression that overrides the actual value of the report object.
In your case, if you want to add a static header text to the row data, you could try something like the following:
if Gender = "M"
then "Mr. " + CurrentFieldValue
else "Ms. " + CurrentFieldValue
where Gender is a field object in the report and CurrentFieldValue is the data object specified for rows in the cross-tab.
If you wanted to put header on the previous line, you could try something like this:
"Account ID" + chr(13) + CurrentFieldValue
where CurrentFieldValue is the account ID string.

Who expects this looks nothing like your actual report but hopefully it works as an example...
