Crystal Report against SAP R/3 Table-View (SE11) instead of SQ02-Infosets?

Hi all,
does anybody know if crystal can connect to an SAP R/3 Table-View which is created with the SE11 Transaction ?
I want to use this instead of the SQ02 InfoSets because the "join"-functionality in the SQ02-Infosets is only rudimentary and i need more detailed join-functionality.
I use Crystal 12 with SP3 and i also have the SAP-Integration-Kit installed.
Thanks a lot.
Sebastian

Hi,
For creating CR report with R3 tables, please select the "SAP Table,Cluster or Function" in the CREATE NEW CONNECTIONS list.
With this you should be able to select R3 table and create a report.
Thanks,
Noor.

Crystal reports over SAP r/3 tables

I am trying to write a Crystal report over SAP r/3 tables (BSIK and LFA1) with no success.
I have CRpts installed along with the "client side" SAP integration kit. When i try to create a new connection to my development ERP system i am asked to select an available system, but the dialogue box is empty. I can however connect to a SAP BW query successfully using the SAP toolbar that has been added when installing the integration kit.
Is there anywhere a set if instructions to successfully install and configure CRpts to report over SAP r/3 tables ?
Andrew Fox

Make sure to define an environment variable called SAPLOGON_INI_FILE in the system your CR designer is installed on. The variable should contain the path to your SAPlogon.ini file including the file name. eg if saplogon.ini is found under c:\Windows then the variable shoud be set to c:\Windows\saplogon.ini . Restart the CR designer and try again.
If the system list remains empty then locate to saplogon.ini file, open it using Notepad and choose the Save as option. All you have to do is to overwrite the existing file (ie. do not change the name) after changing the encoding to UTF-8 (drop-down list at the bottom of the Save as window)

Error when attempting to create new Crystal Report against SAP BW

We're getting an error when attemptiing to create a new report using the SAP toolbar in CR:
"Failed to retrieve SSO2 logon ticket. Please contact your BW administrator".
Any ideas? We're able to run existing reports fine. Just can't create new ones using the toolbar.

Hi,
but you do realize that it is a pre-requisite ?
your BW system needs to be configured for reading and generating SSO token

How to delete all the crystal reports from SAP B1 ?

Dear Experts,
I have one problem and I need to Delete all the Crystal PLD's and Crystal Reports from SAP B1.
I can delete a PLD or Report using delete option from Report and layout manager or layout designer.
But I need to select delete option for each PLD and It makes very time.I have some 200 Reports and I need to delete fully.
Is there any possible to multi delete option in SAP B1?
I have searched many but i will not receive proper solution. Any one can explain how to do This?
Thanks ,

Dear Karthikeyan,
Manual deletion is actually the most safe way to delete them. If you try update B1 tables directly, you are against SAP support rule.
Thanks,

Error while 'Crystal Report for Sap Business One' addon started

Hi,
I have try to install Crystal Report for Sap Business One (Addon Versione number 2.0.0.7).
The installatione finish succesfully, but when I started the addOn i retrieve this errore message: External Connection to the dataBase failed. Sap Crystal Addon may not function properly. Please re-run the account setup with superuser login.
I'm logged in Sap with manager (super user), so maybe I have forgot some step in the installation?
I have see the Demo in the Channel Partner Portal, I have note that I have to isntall the CR_Runtime_12_0, but I don't find it, I don't know where I can download this file. I have just installed SapCrystalSetup.exe and registered the Addon like a normal Sap B1 addon.
Where is the error??
Regards
Marco

You must configure in each cliente Pc the connection with the DATABASE.
You must Know the Database Super User (In SQL Server usually sa, and its password, the standard form SAP Business One is SAPB1Admin)
In Administration > Crystal Reports Administration > Account Setup
The CR_Runtime_12_0 is only necesary to view reports, but isn't necesary to start de addon.

Problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One

Hi Experts,
I am facing a problem while importing a Crystal Report in SAP Business One, it displaying an error "No matching records found 'Queries' (OUQR) (ODBC -2028) [Message 131-183]" , and there is no use of this table OUQR in the Query.
Kindly let me know the solution.
Regards
Rahul Singh

Hi Rhaul,
i don't exactly know why this is a problem, but if your not on latest (881 p10) then upgrade and try again.
Or as a workaround,
try saveing from CR to SAP with the CR add-on. That usualy works better then the import.

Data Extraction from SAP R/3 Table View in BW

Dear All,
I am trying to create a BW query from SAP R/3 Table View.
Till now i have created a table view
Extracted Data source in R/3 Useing Tcode : RSA3
In BW Side
1. I have replicated the data source in Source system
2. Created info object
and info object catalog
and assigned it
Now i am little confused over what to do next
wheather to create ODS object in info cube,
Please guide me with rest of steps to follow.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hi,
After replicating DS in BW, you have to maintain ODS or Cube for maintaining data in BW.
After loading data into Data Targets you can create Reports based on those Data Targets.
For better reporting performance you can create Cube rather ODS.
Info Source(After Creating info Objects, you have to create a Transfer Structure to map the Fields.)
Then create a Data Target ODS/Cube.
Update rules
Info Package
Hope it helps you .
Let us know if you still have any issues.

Importing Crystal report in SAP B1

Hi All,
I have imported crystal report in SAP B1.
In Parameter screen there are 3 parameters.(From Date, To Date and Location).
In that Location should have values from OLCT table.
How can i fill that location text with location name without FMS.

Hi,
i have a data as below (OPOR table)
DocKey        DocNum             Series                 and other details.........
1                       1                     Primary(i.e any numeric value)
2                       2                     Primary(i.e any numeric value)
so on..................
3                      1                      User Defined(i.e any numeric value)
4                      2                      User Defined(i.e any numeric value)

Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7

Hi,
I have been reading these posts and got bit confused.
What do I need to integrate Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7 without BOE. My company has SAP NW license and Crystal Reports Enterprise license and plan to use CR for formatted reporting. Do I still need integration kit into SAP BW in order to create crystal reports on BEx queries and save into BW and view through the SAP NW Portal?
Or am I fine without integration kit?
many thanks

Based on the below Ingo's blog in BI expert we would only need the following:
You must install Crystal Reports Designer on the client
You must install the client components for the BusinessObjects Integration Kit for SAP Solutions
You must install an SAP front end with the SAP NetWeaver BI 7.X Add-On and the SAP BW 3.5 Add-On components on the client when using the connectivity on top of SAP NetWeaver BI
Users need to have the necessary authorizations in the SAP system. For SAP NetWeaver BI, this means that users require the authorizations to view and execute BI queries. There are additional authorizations for SAP ERP access in authorizations class ZSSI that are specific to the connectivity that BusinessObjects provides.
You must release the BI queries that you want to use with Crystal Reports for external access. You can set this property in the BI Query Designer.
So, no mention of BOE.

Connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC

Hi. can you help me please.
I'm testing the connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC. I tried using the tables,
but by making the links between foreign keys does not bring data. The other way I tried was using an ABAP function module,
but using this way, Crystal will only works like a Presentation Layer because all the work was did it in ABAP;
besides that shows the limitation that I can not pass as input a table.
what is the best practice for reporting on SAP ECC using Crystal Report?
Thanks.

Hi,
Crystal Reports is able to leverage tables, ABAP functions, SAP query and InfoSets.
what is the issue when using the tables ?
