Crystal Report Bursting based on a field in the report

Hi,
I have a crystal report with  Invoice Number as a field in it.  I need to burst the report with following as the output.
1. Destination: FTP server
2.  Format : PDF : One PDF for every invoice.
I was trying to use Publication through Infoview.  I would like to know how to achieve this.
I do not have any parameters in the report or any group of users/recipients.  Hence, I have not created any Profiles.
Thanks in advance.

Add your CR report as source document and then choose to have Dynamic recipients for your publication. Use there as source for the recipients' list the same report you want to burst. As Recipient identifier select the field that contains the invoice ID.
In the personalization panel go to the Filters area and select in the Report field drop down your invoice field from the report. In the Dynamic recipients mapping drop down select again the field containing the invoice ID.
Select the appropriate settings in the destination and format panels and let at least on BO user subscribe to the publication .
After that you can run the publication.

Stratos

  • Column Headings in the report and adding an extra field to the report

    Hi All.
    I had an issue like i need to put column headings for a report and I want to add an extra field to the report.
    The problem here is that the report was actually cloned from a Query.At the time of cloning,they forgot to add the column headings.
    Now we need to add the column headings for the same.How can we proceed for this and where we need to add our code?
    How to add an extra field  to the existing report?
    Any pointers will be very much helpful.
    Regards,
    SSR.

    Hi,
    you can get this done in 2 ways:
    1 - Change the query to add another column and the re-generate the report
    2 - If changing query is not possible, you can change the report it self for adding extra field. If you look at the code, it will be more like normal ABAP code. you can easily modify it (If you are ABAPer) for your additional requirements.
    thnx,
    ags.

  • Hiding selective fields in a report based on other field in the same report

    Hello!
    I am trying to create a report of the inventory items. 2 of the fields in the report would be the sale price of the item, and one of the properties (prop1) from the Item Master Property tab.
    Depending on whether Prop1 is Y/N, the price of the item should be displayed.
    If Prop1 = N, Price is displayed
    If Prop1 = Y, Price gets hidden
    Using queries, is it possible to create this kind of reports?
    I am using SAP 2005b PL 42.
    Thanks for any suggestions....
    Prajwal

    Hello Prajwal,
    It is definely possible !!
    If you have already created your query pls paste the same here so that I can help you otherwise. I will give you a general guidelines and you can take it from there..
    Using the CASE Statement inside your SELECT you can achieve this.
    SELECT T1.ItemCode AS 'Item No.', T1.ItemName AS 'Item Description',
    CASE WHEN  T1.QryGroup1 = 'N' THEN T0.Price ELSE 0 END 'List Price'
    FROM  [dbo].[ITM1] T0  INNER  JOIN [dbo].[OITM] T1  ON  T1.ItemCode = T0.ItemCode   WHERE T0.PriceList = 1

  • Sending reports to various recipients using a data field on the report

    Hi,
    I am currently running Crystal Reports Server 2008 with SP 3  applied.
    I was wondering if this was possible.
    I have a report that I would like to be sent to an email address field on the table that the report runs from. Fields are something like this:
    Amount Due, Invoice #, Client's email address, Date
    What I would like CRS to do is send out emails depending on what's on the table. Obviously I would need the server to send out the report to a particular client with only the records that should be for them.
    I, for some reason, thought there was an ability to add a field from the report on the email itself using brackets or some sort of variable but I'm not sure if this is true.
    If anyone can help, I would appreciate it greatly.
    Thanks!

    You can use Publications for that. As far as I know this should be supported natively in CRS 2008 with SP3.
    Take a look at the demo on building a data-driver publication here:
    http://www.sap.com/solutions/sap-crystal-solutions/information-infrastructure/sapcrystalserver/featuresfunctions/index.epx
    You have to have CALs (concurrent access licenses) though.

  • Binding an SQL "where" clause to a field in the report.

    Hello everybody,
    I have made a crystal report that works fine. Now, I need to add a specific query to the report and drag and drop the returned fields in the report.
    The problem is that I need to add a query that contains a "Where" clause that is binded to a field already existing in the report, for example :
    SELECT T0.Field1,
                  T0.Field2,
                  T0.Field3
    FROM Table1 T0
    WHERE T0.Field4=(a field from a report)
    Is it possible to do it ? if yes, how can I do it.
    Thank you in advance for your further responds,

    You can't do it in that specific way. It would have to be done server side or use a subreport and then link the subreport on the field from the main report.

  • How to insert a new field in the Report Designer

    Hi all.
    I have a query and a report, but the query evolve.
    We have a new key figure (inside rows).
    In the report designer, I check the data provider.
    The new key figure is added in the catalog field.
    Now, I would like to insert the new field in the report.
    I add a new row in the report structure but it isnt what I want.
    In this case, I add a second row inside an another keys figures block.
    I want to create a new block for my new key figure
    Thanks for your help
    Céline

    Yes, key figures is in the field catalog.
    But When I do that " Insert a row ", Report designer create a " row 2 " below another key figures.
    And it isn't what I want. I want a new block .
    For exemple in the tab report structure (My new key figure is "Margin")
    I do that
    Group Level 1 : key figures
             Detail Area
                      Sales Amount
                                   row1
                                          cell1

                                          cell1
                                          cell2
                                   row2 ( the new row added)
                                          cell1
                                          cell2                     
    But I want that:

  • Adding the G/L description field in the report FAGLL03

    Dear all
    I would like to add the G/L description field in the report FAGLL03. Can you tell me how this can be done.
    Many thanks
    PG

    Hi Peter,
    You can do the changes as per Moeze suggestion.
    What we have did is that we have writeen a exit in substitution rule for the offsetting G/L code (assumptioning that you want the description for offsetting g/l code).
    We have added the offsetting g/l code in special feild and accordingly the system displays the corresponding description of the offsetting g/l code.
    Try it,it will work.
    If not do revert for the needful.

  • I want to add some fields in the report of FBL5N, Can anybody tell me how ?

    I want to add some fields in the report of FBL5N, Can anybody tell me how to do it?
    The fields are sales order, delivery, order quantity, net value and others.
    I can only find the shipment number in FI document.
    Thank you very much.

    Dear Jie,
    Billing document number can be displayed in customer line item display
    (FBL5N) and not in G/L line item display (FBL3N).
    The value of VBELN is saved in table BSEG. So, this means, you
    have to define the field BSEG-VBELN as a special field in table
    T021S. Then you can use it in FBL3N, because then the report looks
    directly in BSEG-VBELN.
    For further information,please read the SAP note 207436. You don't have to
    implement the coding corrections, if they are already in your system
    with the hotpackage. But it explains very detailed the system
    behaviour. The example in the note with field EBELN could be
    replicated on your field VBELN.
    About the MEINS field, please refer to 1-U_MEINS (bseg-meins field).
    The SAP note 215798 may also be helpful.

  • The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database

    I have SQL server installed to I can connect to RS using my domain/user account. However, when I try to go to http://<machine_name>/Reports/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx, I get error as
        * The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help
              o Login failed for user '<machine name>\ASPNET'
        * I also noticed that after I installed RS,I do not see reports folder under C:\Inetpub. This folder does not exist, I manually created reports virtual folder in IIS and liked it to  C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer

    During installation, I always specified user as domain\user.
    Thanks

    Hi NewToReporting,
    From you descriptions, I know you have tow questions: 1.Why the SQL Server Reporting Services does not create virtual directories in the wwwroot? 2. Why the error "A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing" happen? If I have misunderstood, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    One of the changes in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 is the removal of the Internet Information Services (IIS) dependency. So, we won't see report server virtual directories in the wwwroot folder.
    The second problem is caused by the user '<machine name>\ASPNET' does not have permission to login the SQL Server database "Reports".
    To solve the issue, please follow these steps:
    1.Open SQL Server Reporting Services Configuration Manager(Start - All Programs - Microsoft SQL Server 2008 - Configuration Tools)
    2.Go to "Database" tab.
    3.Click "Change Credential"
    4.In the coming dialog, fill the textboxes with this information(some textboxes are not modifiable )
    Server: <the server name of the report server catalog database>
    Authentication Type: Current User - Integrated Security (This will use the user we are login to connect to the database server.)
    UserName:(If selecting "Current User - Integrated Security", this textbox is not modifiable. )
    Password:(If selecting "Current User - Integrated Security", this textbox is not modifiable. )
    5. Click Next
    6.In the coming dialog, configure the following information:
    Authentication Type: Service Credential(This will use the user the reporting services running under to connect to the report server catalog database. The user is the one we configured in "Service Account" tab)
    UserName:(If selecting "Service Credential", this textbox is not modifiable. )
    Password:(If selecting "Service Credential", this textbox is not modifiable. )
    7.Click Next to confirm the information.
    8.Click Next to apply.
    This will auto add the user  '<machine name>\ASPNET'  to login group, set this user to be the owner of report server catalog database, and also give this user "RSExce" role.
    Now, we are able to connect to the report server.

  • Automatic Report Bursting based on column names given by user as parameter.

    Hi,
    Could some help me achieve the following functionality. The requirement are:
    1. create a report that has parameters that are column names (display values e.g: department, location, employee job code)
    2. the end user will select one or more columns from the multi-select parameter
    3. we want that there should be a button on clicking that the user should get automatic file bursting. He should not be required to go to schedules tab and create a new job for that.
    4. the report should burst to a file location depending on the columns selected by the user, e.g. if user selected department and location then we should have files saved in the set file location as sales-india.pdf, sales-us.pdf, hr-india.pdf, hr-us.pdf and so on.
    I am new to BI Publisher.
    Could you help me in creating such a parameter, what should be report sql for capturing the data from parameter and then doing report bursting automatically based on two or more parameter values given by the user.
    There is no need to show the report to the user in BI Publisher as there are thousands of rows in a table. Three tables join to give the employee data.
    -Priyanka

    Thanks for a quick response but I am still not clear on
    1. how to do this using custom java code
    and
    2. actually user would login to interactive dashboard and there he will give these parameters using which we need to automatically burst a BI publisher report. Can this be done some how?

  • FBL5N, query regading the SO n PO field in the report

    HI experts,
    #1 In the Transaction FBL5N, the report I have selected the Sales order and Purchase order in the lay out.
    When the report is run for any customer these both fields are empty. Infact all the order are created with reference to PO n then SO then Invoicing.
    I have checked the transaction VTFA wherein the header for the invoice /SO combination as A-reference of PO. But that is not working out.
    #2 Another issue is can the transaction VF05 have a field with which the the invoice can be selected using the Purcase order of the invoice. Eg. similar to a field which we have in VA05 where we can enter the purchase order for search criterial.
    Please helpme out in these issues.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Andy,
    Sorry, can I pick your brain one final time?
    I've got the css hover working as your example... do you know if there's a way to have a break in the text?
    My function is looping through every row, essentially setting:
    aliases := aliases || next_name
    and finally returning the full string of aliases. So my hover box would be something like:
    name1 name2 name3 name4
    I'd like to have it:
    name1
    name2
    name3
    name4
    for readability.
    I guess I'd need to have my function work along the lines of:
    aliases := aliases || next_name || newline
    where newline is the code for a new line in the hover box... but I'm struggling to find out what the code is for a new line in this situation.
    Thanks

  • How to select a communication channel based on a field in the message?

    Hi All,
    In my scenario - Sending system will send one country field in the message ,I have one receiver system which has different folders for different countries.
    I have created separate communication channels for separate countries.
    Now at runtime based on the country field in sender message I need use the channel respective to that country.
    How should i achieve this?
    Please help.

    Hi,
    Say you have 3 countries - I would suggest:
    1) Create 3 services - each for one country
    2) Create 1 CC's under each of these services
    3) In your Receiver Determination ->Configured Receivers -> Condition field --- put in the condition (by choosing the field from the input that has the country code)
    4) Against each condition, choose the respective service for that country
    5) Complete the Interface Determination - (by calling the same mapping in all three Interface Determination)
    6) Complete the Receiver Agreement by choosing the appropriate CC created as in Step 2)
    1) and 2) are basically for ease of use. If you need to identify the Service or CC - this would be user-friendly.
    If you dont want to create 3 different services - you can still not do Step 1 and continue from Step 2.

    Hi Hari,
    Considering both Market Segment and Application fields are dropdown,
    1) define an event for the first dropdown in the get_p method ie., Market Segment field
    2) In the get_v method of the second dropdown get the value of hte 1st dropdown and filter your field accordingly
    Note: The reason for defining an event in (1) is just to do a server submit.. its actually act as a dummy event if you dont want to handle your logic here
    Hope this was helpful.
