Crystal Report connecting Multple ECC systems

Hi,
I am working on crystal where I compare the data between to two diffrent databases(ECC tables). I am using SAP Table, function mudule option to create connection.
I have built a main report against ECC system A and imported a sub report built on ECC system B. Now I see that connection in my main report is overwrting the connection in the sub report. If I change the connection in the subreport with set data source location it changes the connection of both sub report and main report. After I deploy this report to infoview, in cmc I see only one database connection.
Is this a bug or can we have only one connection to ECC system per one crystal report even if it has sub reports?
Thanks

Yes that happens automatically, I just checked the same logic with universes built against oracle data source, I could see two coonections in the CMC. Its like its there is this issue when I am connecting to sap tables directly

Adapting Crystal Reports to a New System

Hi guys
I'm implementing Best Practices for BI (based on BO Edge XI 3.1) ver. 1.31.
My backend system is ECC 6.0 EhP3.
Now I'm trying to import some reports from Crystal Reports to the ECC system, but it says the user I'm specifying in the "Set Datasource Location" dialog box has not got enough rights.
The user has roles CRYSTAL_DESIGNER and CRYSTAL_ENTITLEMENT, and in addition it has profiles SAP_ALL, SAP_NEW and X_REST.
Can you please tell me what I'm missing?
Thanks.
Best regards,

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 ?

Crystal Report Connectivity with Java

How to connect our program with crystal report?

I have never used crystal report. I have created a stand-alone application in java 6 with SQL server 2000 as backend. Its a simple application that maintains records of employees in an organization. I want to use crystal report for report generation. I have crystal report 9 on my system. I have searched a lot on google but could not find any relevant help. Can u provide help in this regard or send me links from where i could get any lead.
I am not using any IDE as such now. Is it actually needed?
Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.

CALL_FUNCTION_OPEN_ERROR in CRM while trying to connect to ECC system

Hi All,
We are having issues while connecting to ECC system from CRM at specific point of time.
It occurred only once yesterday . Since it is a production system, we need to investigate the cause of the issue.
Upon checking the logs, I can see dumps in ST22 stating CALL_FUNCTION_OPEN_ERROR while trying to connect to ECC.
This issue has been faced by multiple users at the same time.
Both CRM and ECC are in the same server . There are no errors in ECC system ,
The error description says
Error opening RFC connection
Error text........... "Group USER not found"
Description.......... "LgIGroupX"
The response time is fine for the system and during the time when the error occurred.
Both the systems are in kernel 720 patch level 416.
There are no errors in dev_rd and dev_ms as well.
The errors in trace file also give information that ECC system cannot be reached.
However our ECC system was available , up and running and there were no issues at that time with ECC.
I have attached the dump, kernel and patch level details , work process trace files and the response times.
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Sowmya.

Getting No rights error in Crystal Reports connection with SAP ECC 6

I am ABAP/BI developer and would like to work in Crystal Reports 2011. Currently, We have SAP ECC 6 and BI 7 set up. I have installed trial version of Crystal Reports 2011.
I am getting error while trying to create blank report in Crystal Reports:
Create New Connection -> SAP Tables.. -> entered SAP Development server user id and password -> following error message :
LOGON failed
Details : You do not have necessary rights to design reports against the SAP system. Please check with your system administrator.
My user id has all rights in development server. So, is any special rights require? OR do we have to install any patch for Crystal Reports at SAP level?
Please guide me.

Hi,
To be able to report off an SAP data source in Crystal Reports, request the SAP Administrator to set the appropriate authorizations for the user.
For a list of authorizations that are necessary for each type of SAP connection, consult the document:
BusinessObjects XI Integration for SAP Installation Guide
In the "Authorizations" chapter, there is a description of each authorizations needed for each type of connection and actions.
( The document is attached to this SAP Knowledge Base Article in the attachment section )
In addition to the authorizations specified in the SAP Integration Kit Installation Guide, the following authorizations are required:
For Authorization object: S_RFC with Field name: RFC_Name. According to the installation guide the values should be: SYST, /CRYSTAL/OPENSQL
Additionally you will need the value: SUSR as well.
For Authorization object: ZSEGREPORT with field name: ACTVT. According to the installation guide the value is: 02 (Change)
Additionally you will need the value: 01 (Create or generate) as well.
Thank you.

Database Connection error in Crystal Reports using SAP BW system

Hi,
While using Crystal Reports in trying to build a report on the SAP Query in SAP/BW System using the MDX driver, I am able to get the structure of the query fields into the report but on the other hand while trying to refresh the report for data I am getting the error message u201C Failed to connect to the databaseu201D . This database connection error occurs despite the fact that the SAP server authentication details being entered on Refreshing the report is correct.
What could be the possible reason? Any guess...
Thanks,
Amogh

Hi,
Yes, I am using the MDX driver.
Is there any pre-requisites of importing certain ABAP transports into SAP Server since I haven't done any? Please recommend.
Thanks,

How to trigger crystal report from SAP ECC

Hi All,
I hope i m right forum to ask this question.
we want to do label printing from Crystal reports. data will be present in SAP ECC .
So I below issues
1 ) how to connect SAP ECC database with Crystal Reports.
2 ) how to trigger print output in Crystal reports from ECC , lets say I create a Delivery In ECC , the print output will be issued to Crystal report and I should get a print out Immediately ( for printing - printer will be connected to local system and SAP network printer ) .
I have worked with this type of scenario in smarforms , adobeforms. but not with Crystal Reports ...

Hi Yashpal,
First thing you need to do is install the Connector on both your work station where you run Crystal Reports as well as the SAP Server where the data is.
So I moved your post to the SAP Integration Kit forum.
Need to know what version of Crystal Reports you are using?
Search of browse here, lots of info on how to...

Crystal Reports 2011 and ECC logon error

We have installed Crystal 2011 and the ECC integration kit to enable reporting out of ECC using Crystal. I understand the connection string concept, but I am having a problem getting Crystal to logon to my msg server using a logon group other than PUBLIC.
I have tried passing different supported logon groups during the logon, but the resulting error message indicates it is still trying to logon to the msg server using PUBLIC logon group which does not exist in our system.

Actually it has turned out to be an App-V thing. Several desktop clients including SAPGUI are deployed using App-V. Basically Crystal does not read or pay attention to the "virtual" ENV variables that locate the saplogon.ini file in the App-V environment. We are developing a work around to install Crystal using App-V and linked to the virtual env variables. fingers crossed.
BTW, thanks for the input. But this was being tried on my machine using a VMware guest. The GUI has been installed and operational for many months and my username in this ECC system has SAP_ALL as it's a sandbox that we are shaking this out on.
This was my first experience dealing with App-V.. Apparently desktop support is going the same virtual route as the Servers and CI's have gone.

Crystal Report Connectivity to Function module

Hi,
I have a crystal report which is connected to a Function module in ECC(dev). After the function module moved to Quality I could repoint the crystal database to Quality. Later, some changes were made in the function module fields (eg: change in field length etc) by the field names were kept same. now when i try to repoint the database it says field not found and the report canvas becomes blank. but I can see the fields in the field explorer.
is there a way to correct the error?
Thanks, Arka

Hi Arka,
When you open the report then log into the DB and then click on Database, Verify Database. This should update the database info and changes in the report. CR keeps track of the DB it's connecting to so if you make s changes you must Verify the database to update the info in the RPT file also. Be sure to save the report.

Thanks!
Edited by: Erick Fernando Nicolas Fernandez on Aug 10, 2011 3:55 AM

There is a specific set of authorizations that you need to provide to your SAP user to be able to create CR reports against SAP data source. Check in the "SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise Integration for SAP Solutions Installation and Administration Guide" chapter 13 called "Authorization".
You can download this guide in the following URL: ht[http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000559912010E/xi31_sp3_bip_sap_inst_en.pdf|http://service.sap.com/sapidb/011000358700000559912010E/xi31_sp3_bip_sap_inst_en.pdf]
