Crystal Report and InfoObject with Compound Key

Hi,
I have Characteristic with Compound Key in SAP BW 7.0. This Characteristic use to store the Purchase Order Item Line. The Compound Key is the Purchase Order Document.
So I will have the following fields created for this Characteristic:
Compound Key (Purchase Order Document) 5600001982, Purchase Order Item Line 10
I created a Query for this Characteristic and I have the following as result:
10 ...
20 ...
30 ...
All works fine.
Now I created the Crystal Report from this Query. When I display this Characteristic in Crystal Report, I have the following:
5600001982/10
5600001982/20
5600001982/30
Is this a bug or Crystal not support the Compound Key?
Please advise, thank you.

Crystal Reports and Xcelsius Installation

Hi I have a mac book pro and wanted to learn crystal reports and xcelsius in a hands on way. I have created a partition on the laptop and am wondering which OS to install - Windows(if so which one) or Linux. Immediate goal is have an environment where I can use CR and Xcelsius with a non sap data source. My end goal eventually is to have an environment where I can use Crystal report and xcelsius with SAP ECC6.
I am trying to learn CR, Xcelsius with SAP ECC and SAP BW. Your ideas and isights are welcome.
Thanks

Hi Otto,
Thanks for the link. Your link will be a good start for me in terms of finding out the major components required to accomplish this 'project'. I am definitely interesting in collaborating and discussing the findings and exploring the areas of opportunity, so lets stayi in touch.
I dont have access to any windows os right now. So I am thinking about installing linux on my mac book pro since its free and probably going to beef up the ram to 3 gb (per my understanding max supported on my 2007 model). Hopefully this will get me going in the right direction.
Any recommendations on Suse vs Red hat. looking for something that is free.
Thanks

Hello,
Did you get this resolved.
Were you able to display characteristics in Crystal without the compounding characteristic.
Thanks.

Crystal Reports and BW Query- Translation

Hello,
I'm trying to use Crystal reports with BW Query in the Hebrew Language.
When i open the Crystal Reports and connect to SAP I'm putting the Hebrew language key in the logon screen. When the crystal report starts i can see the reports info objects but without the Hebrew description. I can see that in the formula fields the Language key is selected but shouldnt i get the info objects description as well?
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
when I create a new report (using the SAP toolbar) I always get the descriptions for the info objects on the field explorer according to the language I set when I logon on into the SAP system my query resides in. I tried with both english and german language and it works fine. I assume you have installed the hebrew language pack for CR and that the hebrew descriptions are maintained in your SAP system. I also assume that you are talking about creating a report here and not opening an existing one though. In this case the language at creation time defines which descriptions are displayed.
If the above assumptions are valid, then you may face a hebrew language specific problem here. Opening a support case would probably make sense.

Crystal Reports in Java with BEA Weblogic (test drive)

Hello, 
 
The question is: What is wrong with Crystal Reports or BEA Weblogic, when they are working together? And how can it be repaired? 
 
I have a project working with reports. Tried to implement it for crystal reports and found an interesting problem. Crystal Reports didn't work with BEA Weblogic as well as with other servers. 1-2 years ago we just took Tomcat and worked with it. Right now we are interested in working with BEA. 
 
Everything works, but much slower than other servers. The best explanation is just a my tries in the end of the post. I hope some clever man helps me to option Weblogic or at least explains what is wrong. 
 
Test results are: 
 
- Apache Software Foundation - Tomcat 6.0: 
~3 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~1 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- OC4J - Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.3.3.0): 
~4 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~1 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- Jetty 7.0.0.pre5: 
~2 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~0 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
- BEA Weblogic 9.2: 
~30 sec for clientDoc.open(reportName, OpenReportOptions._openAsReadOnly); 
~8 sec for crystalReportPageViewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, application, null); 
 
simple_cr_webapp.war (30 MB) can be downloaded [here|http://rapidshare.com/files/221096566/simple_cr_webapp.war.html] or [here|http://math.ut.ee/~a30858/simple_cr_webapp.war]:

sample.rpt //"Consolidated Balance Sheet.rpt" from Eclipse plugin's web-app samples
 
P.S. It is also suites if someone gives a simple project with CR, that works well. I really need to get solution for this problem, so any advises are expected. 

I also tried for different java vendors on BEA Weblogic 9.2.

How to get one crystal report to work with two different backends?

We have a software that can work with either SQL2008 or Visual Fox Pro backend. We are trying to compile One Crystal report that will work with either of the two backends. How to you make sure that your Crystal Report is compiled so that it will work with both backends?
Right now my reports were originally created using the SQL2008 backend and are retaining the DBO reference in the statement, which then will not allow the Crystal report to work with the VFP backend.

You can write your data sets as a command using hand coded SQL. As long as "dbo" is the only schema used in your SQL Server database, you don't need to specify it in the SQL. SQL Server will automatically assume the dbo.
The 2nd thing... The SQL needs to be 100% compatible with both SQL Server 2008 AND VFP. This will limit the list available functions to those that are common to both platforms AND work exactly the same in both platforms.
The other part is to make sure you are using an ODBC type connection instead of OLD/DB. That way all of the connection properties are set on the local machine and the report is simply looking for the System DSN name.
HTH,
Jason

Select multiple items from a list box as values for a parameter of crystal report and Oracle procedure

- I have a Product list box (asp.net) used as multiple selected values for a parameter.
- The Product ID is defined in the Oracle procedure as NUMBER data type.
- In my crystal report, I have a parameter field allow multiple values as p_product_id type as Number. This is the code in my Record Selection Formula for the report:
({?p_product_id}[1] = -1 OR {Procedure_name.product_id} in {p_product_id})
- In C#, this is my code
List<decimal?> productUnit = new List<decimal?>();
int counter = 0;
decimal prod;
for (int i = 0; i < lstProducts.Items.Count; i++)
 if (lstProducts.Items[i].Selected)
 if (decimal.TryParse(lstProduct.Items[i].Value, out prod))
 productUnit.Add((decimal?)prod);
 counter++;
 if (counter == 0)
 productUnit.Add(-1);
ReportingDAO rDataFactory = new ReportingDAO();
retVal = rDataFactory.GetProductReport(productUnit);
public CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument GetProductReport(List<decimal?> productUnit)
 CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument retVal = new rptProductDownload();
 ReportLogon rptLog = new ReportLogon();
 rptLog.Logon(retVal, "RPT_PRODUCT_DOWNLOAD");
 retVal.SetParameterValue("p_product_id", productUnit);
I keep having the "Value does not fall within the expected range" when I debug. My question is, is the data type I used for procedure/Crystal report/ and C# correct ? I always have problem with the data type. Any help would be
appreciated
Thank you

Crystal reports and Bex

Hi all,
First of all I want to let you know that I am new to SAP. So please excuse me if I am not perfect with my question.
I have a user who wants to replace all the crystal reports they have with the Bex reports. I got the table names and the hardcopies of the crystal reports. By seeing the table names I found that the data is of HR. Now I dont know where and how to start.
I thought that I need to create infocubes and load data into the cube and then get the reports. For that to do I dont know what exactly I need to know. How to work with HR related data.
Hope I am clear. I asked the user whatever I am comfortable with. Please let me know if anything else is required.
Thanks,
Rahul

Crystal Reports and MII 11.5

Are there any documents out there on the pros and cons of integrating Crystal Reports with MII? Can it be done. If so, how can my company do this?

Hi,
The Software Crystal Report is a software for creating reports very good and the MII is a software for creating reports and integrate your manufacturing and more ...
Is possible integrate the two system, but I'm not view very advantages, because if you have installed MII in your company is much simpler to create the reports within the SAP MII.
That depends on your business if uses the reports to Crystal Reports and want to keep this software integrates the software, if your company wants more intelligence use SAP MII I think much better.
I not view documents in SDN about Crystal Reports and SAP MII.
See also on Xcelsius other tool very good.
Hope this helps...

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.

Crystal Reports and SQL Server 2000

Hi all,
I read the document "Troubleshooting Database Connectivity for Crystal Reports" and tried all SQL Server jdbc drivers (1.2, 2.0,2.0.1, 3) and I could not find a working driver with crystal reports at all.
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d05b3bb7-0f28-2c10-4ea3-84dbdc4e414e?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
I'm also not sure if there is a working one?
Are there anybody who suggest me a jdbc driver for SQL server which also supports Crystal Reports?
The connection is ok, but the problem is I don't see tables and other staff under the connection...According to the document above, this means the driver does not support crystal reports...
Product versions which involve this issue as follows:
SQL Server 2000
JRE 5.0
Crystal Reports 11.8 (Comes with IBM RAD 7.5 IDE)
Platform : IBM Portal 6.1.0.2 ( IBM Websphere App. Server 6.1)
Any help would deeply be appreciated.
I'm totaly exhausted. I hope someone help me...
Best regards,
E.

I gave up this issue since I learnt that Crystal Java Reporting Component does not support portlet. I also tried with SQL 2008 and I also updated my IDE for updating Crystal plug-in in it. It was finally working at portal but the pager buttons and other staff in the viewer were not working since it still does not support portlet.
Thanks a lot.
E.
