Crystal Report for Enterprise Bex Text Variables

Hi
We are on Crystal Reports for Enterprise XI 4.0, Version 14.02.2.
We have a text variable for cost center in our column heading that displays "Cost Center XXXX Budget" where XXXX is populated by the text variable.
When this column element displays in the Crystal report it displays as "Not assigned".
When I use the exact same query in Webby the cost center displays exactly as expected.
Has anyone exeprienced a similar problem?
Thanks
Ian

Hi,
BEx Text Variables are fully supported by the BI 4.0 client tools, so this 'should' work
I'd recommend that you contact Support and log an OSS incident. We recently corrected a few issues with text variables in webi, so -at a guess- a fix needs to be ported to CR4E

Crystal Report for Enterprise not displaying Long Text from BEx

Hello,
I am creating a report using SAP Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.0 (Version 14.0.2) and the source of data is BEx query via OLAP connection created using IDT. I am using SAP BusinessObjects BI platform 4.0.
The Characteristic (which is hierarchy) in the Rows section of the BEx Query is set to display long text and as such, it displays long text when the query is executed in the BEx Analyzer. However, when it comes to Crystal Report, the short text is displayed in the report. Can I display long text in the Crystal Report? How?
Thanks,
KP

Venkat,
Thanks for your response. Please note, however, the transaction RAD1 does not exist. Let me provide more details about the current settings of the InfoObject.
The Characteristic is 'Item' (0CS_ITEM) and upon going to RSA1 > Modeling > InfoObjects > Item (0CS_ITEM) > Right Click > Display > Business Explorer (tab) > Text Type is set to 'Long Text' and BEx description is set to 'Long description' already.
When I run/execute the query with this Item characteristic, the results in BEx Analyzer is showing appropriate long text, however, Crystal Report for Enterprise shows short text only

Long Text in Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.0

Hello,
I am creating a report using SAP Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.0 (Version 14.0.2) and the source of data is BEx query via OLAP connection created using IDT. I am using SAP BusinessObjects BI platform 4.0.
The Characteristic (which is hierarchy) in the Rows section of the BEx Query is set to display long text and as such, it displays long text when the query is executed in the BEx Analyzer. However, when it comes to Crystal Report, the short text is displayed in the report.
The Characteristic is 'Item' (0CS_ITEM) and upon going to SAP BW > RSA1 > Modeling > InfoObjects > Item (0CS_ITEM) > Right Click > Display > Business Explorer (tab) > Text Type is set to 'Long Text' and BEx description is set to 'Long description' already.
Can I display long text in the Crystal Report? How?
Thanks,

Hi Jothi,
Short Text and Long Text are associated objects of a Characteristic from a BEx query.
The 'Short Text' will not turn to 'Long Text' by setting the 'Can Grow' option.
In Fact, both are completely different objects.

Key instead of Text in Results Object in Crystal Reports For Enterprise

Hi All
I recently developed a report in Crystal Reports for Enterprise and at some point afterwards the text description of the hierarchy used in the report was changed. The Key remained the same, however this caused the report to crash. The solution was to click Edit Query Option in the Results Objects and simply come out without changing anything. This refreshed the results object pane and the report ran as normal. I work in an environment where the text of hierarchies is liable to change frequently and without notice and it will be unfeasible for me to constantly refresh the results object every time a change to a hierarchy is made. Therefore is there a way to define in CRE to use the Hierarchy key instead of the text as this is less likely to altered?
Many Thanks in advance
Neil

Excuse me I have my terminologies mixed up, what I mean is the name of the characteristic used in the report. An example would be a characteristic called with the text of "Material" and a key of "0MATERIAL", if I were to change the text description to "MAT" and the key where to remain the same. This would cause crystal report to error because it expecting the Characteristic name to be "Material". Is there a setting or something in CRE to have it default to the key only so if the text of a characteristic or even a key figure for that matter where changed there would be no impact to the Crystal report.
I hope this makes more sense this time round
Thanks
Neil

Publishing Crystal Reports for Enterprise error

When I try to publish a Crystal Reports for Enterprise report, using Publication options, in order to send it by email to three of my users, it shows the following error:
2014-07-03 10:20:32,390 ERROR [PublishingService:HandlerPool-1] BusinessObjects_PublicationAdminErrorLog_Instance_16070 - [Publication ID # 16070] - Scheduling document job "Users - with Logon Events" (ID: 16,077) failed: Exception in formula '{@Record_Selection}' at 'and (
({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Larry") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Curly") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Moe")
The remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula. (CRS 300003) (FBE60502)
[3 recipients processed.]
It is weird because the report is one of those that are by default used for Auditing and it runs perfectly when I run it manually or by Schedule. The problem is when I include it in a Publication, so it can be filtered automatically based on the list of users.
I tried with another of those reports that come with Auditing, and it has the same problem. Is it a bug? Are you able to replicate this error in your environment? I'm using Crystal Reports 2013 sp3.

Hi Abhilash,
I am able to open and edit other reports on the server without problem. I believe that they are the same version and pack. Here are my versions:
CR for Enterprise Version 14.1.3.1257, Build 2013 Support Pack 3.
SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 3, Version 14.1.3.1257
When CRE displays an error like this, is there further information in a log or recorded anywhere else? How does one go about finding details?

Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.1: Error while saving report to BI platform "There was an unexpected error saving your report to the server. Please try again or contact your administrator if the problem persists."

Hi All,
I am able to create a report in Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.1 on top of an OLAP connection (data source BEx query). However, when I am trying to save this report to BI platform, I am running into the following error:
The error was not resolved even after applying the following SAP KBA notes:
1676033
1709390
1922003
1727813
Below is the excerpt in the error log (on the path mentioned in SAP NOTE: 1709390),
However, could not make much sense out of it, as to how can the issue be resolved. If anyone has useful insights on this issue, please share the same with me.
Regards,
Alston

Hi Alston
Since you have CR for Enterprise then you also have BI and thus most likely you also have an S user ID. You can use the S user ID to create a phone incident at it is part of your Enterprise Support Package. Just saying as this may be the most efficient way of proceeding at this time(?). But please don't take as me trying to push you off of SCN .

Format Column Header in Crosstab Query in Crystal Reports for Enterprise

Hi
I am using Crystal reports for Enterprise and I would like to format the Column header of a crosstab query one block of colour say light blue. However I cannot select the header in isolation to the rest of the cross tab. All I can select is either column text boxes, which doesnu2019t look good formatted as a different colour to the background of the crosstab. Or I can only select either entire column or the entire row, which kind of defeats the object of formatting just the column header itself. Is there a way to isolate the column headers so I can format just the header, as the report is looking extremely bland all in white?
Many Thanks in advance
Regards
Neil

Alright, here's what you need to do:
1) RIght-click one of the Column Headers and select 'Format Result Object Element' > Appearance > click on the formula button (fx) beside 'Fill' and use this code:
if currentrowindex < 0 then crBlue
You wanted light blue right? So, the rgb value for light blue or sky blue would be 135-206-250. So, you can change the color by modifying the formula like this:
if currentrowindex < 0 then color(135,206,250)
If this is not the exact blue you're after, just google!
Hope this helps!

Crystal Reports for Enterprise - SQL Command - Array Fetch Size

We're attempting to migrate a report created in Crystal Reports 2013 Support Pack 3 Version 14.1.3.1257 to...
Crystal Reports for Enterprise Version 14.1.3.1300 Build: 2013 Support Pack 3 Patch 1
The originating report is successfully connecting and returning data from MySQL through the MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver (3.51.30.00), using a SQL Command
When opening up this report in CR for E and running the report against the same database and the same version of database driver, we get the following Crystal Reports error:
Crystal Reports
A problem was encountered
The following error has occurred while trying to retrieve the data:
Error on Fetch : Largevarchar and Largevarbinary data cannot retrieved as variable-length data if the array fetch size is not set to 1.
Please check with your System Administrator that the data source is correctly configured.
How would we check and where would we adjust the array fetch size within Crystal Report for Enterprise?
Thank you

Hi Vitaly,
I had not yet tried creating a new report based on the query, within CR for E, but I did now upon your request\suggestion. Yes, it fails as well with a brand new report..same new error as above: "Non Supported Datatype"
I've pasted the SQL we are using below. I just tried running this exact query natively through MyPHPAdmin, and also creating a brand new report with Crystal Reports 2013 against the same ODBC driver that I am trying to use within CR for E. In both cases the query was accepted and ran successfully.
Driver info:
MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver - Version 3.51.30.00
I have also tried 2 newer versions of the driver:
MySQL ODBC 5.3 ANSI - Version 5.03.02.00
MySQL ODBC 5.3 Unicode - Version 5.03.02.00
...where I also configure each within the Information Design Tool so that the "Array Fetch Size"= 1
I receive the same "Non Supported Datatype" error for these drivers as well. The MySQL server version is: 5.1.73-0ubuntu0.10.04.1-log

DB2 support for Crystal Reports for Enterprise And Unx errors

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a report in CrystalReports for Enterprise 4 sourcing data from Oracle 11 and IBM DB2 V9 databases. My first approach is to create relational connections for both the databases in the BO Repository (using Universe designer) and use them directley in the CR for Enterprise. Here I was able to create the two connections but unable to use the DB2 connnection in the report. I get the below error:
"The Database DB2V9 is not supported".
Is DB2 is a supported database for Crystal reports for Enterprise ??
My second approach is to create a multisource universe using IDT. Here when I try to create the Datafoundation layer, I get to see the tables from the DB2 databasae but When I expand the Oracle connection, I get this error: "conversion from UTF8 to charset failed: encoding not loaded".
Im unable to create a multisource universe at all no matter what connections I use.
Here is some additional info:
SAP BI4.1 SP1
Windows 2008 R2 servers
Oracle 11g
IBM DB2 V9.7
Any suggestions please!
Thanks,
Ravinder

Hi,
First of all I would strongly advice you to only use IDT for your universe development. The old Universe Designer is a legacy tool and should not be used unless you are using products that doesn't support IDT universes.
The issue you are facing for your Oracle connection is likely caused by a missing path variable.
Add "C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win64_x64" to the PATH environment variables on the SAP Business Objects Enterprise server.
Restart the SIA
NOTE: Modify the path in case the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise is installed in different folder.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Josh

Member Selector In Crystal Reports For Enterprise

Hi All
I am working with hierarchies within Crystal reports for Enterprise. I am using a standard Bex query with the report, so the crystal report is not using an OLAP cube direct. I am wanting to select all the dependants of a particular member within the hierarchical structure. However I can only achieve this by individually selecting all the children of the members at each dependant node of the hierarchy. Which is not ideal as this is effectively hard coding the hierarchy and the hierarchy will change in time and which means the report will have to be manually amended each time there is a change. Therefore is it possible to select a member of a hierarchy and all its dependants so it will dynamically update the report with the changes. I have read that this can be done in the metadata tab of the member selector, however this tab is not available to me as I am working indirectly off the cube, via a Bex query.
Any help with his will be hugely appreciated
Thanks
Neil

Hi,
in crystal Reports for Enterprise you can put the hierarchy into the Result Objects. Then open the member selector.
Now do a right -click on the node and you can see there is the options for children and descendants
that should help

Hi Alston
Since you have CR for Enterprise then you also have BI and thus most likely you also have an S user ID. You can use the S user ID to create a phone incident at it is part of your Enterprise Support Package. Just saying as this may be the most efficient way of proceeding at this time(?). But please don't take as me trying to push you off of SCN .

CRYSTAL REPORT FOR ENTERPRISE ON ECC

Hi Everyone,
I have been trying to connect Crystal Report for Enterprise over ECC via universe as we don't have option
to connect CR4E directly to ECC.
So, I have made a universe in IDT and published it in repository.
Now, when I am using that universe in WebI Report and DashBoard then it is working fine but the same is throwing
the error while I am trying to connect with CR4E 'Failed to execute query: 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale'.
The same error 'Fail to create an instance of Job : com/businessobjects/i18n/locale/BoLocale' was also coming when we try to save the IDT with Secure Connections is set to Server Middleware(Window -> Preferences->Information Design Tool ->Secured Connections ->Server Middleware).

How to Create a Linked Subreport in Crystal Report for Enterprise

Hi All
I am developing a monthly report grouped by cost centre, I want to create a second table for each cost centre showing year to date, underneath the monthly data for that cost centre. My thoughts on how to achieve this is to create a linked subreport in the group footer of the cost centre grouping. However every time I try to set this up the report crashes. Am I doing something wrong, can this be done in crystal reports for enterprise? Can anyone give me a pointer on how to set up a linked subreport so that it passes the particular cost centre the report is grouped upon into the subreport so it only shows data relevant to that cost centre?
Any help will be appreciated as I am going in circles at the moment.
Thanks
Neil

Hi Neil,
You are doing right. You can create linked subreport in crystal report for enterprise. Please refer below link to see the elearning tutorial in which a simiar scenario is explained step by step. Here its an unlinked subreport. Enable subreport filter to make it linked and try. It should work.
