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

  • Universe Designer not pulling Long Text from BEx Query / Info Object

    In the BEx query on which my universe is built, all the characteristics display with Long Text. In each of the info objects (RSD1), the long text option is selected in the BEx properties. However, when the Universe builds, it pulls the short text for the names of the classes, dimensions, and details that get created. I don't want to have to manually change every line to the long text, so I would love to hear if there's some setting in the designer that is causing this to happen.
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    Thank you!

    Another interesting data point to add to this:
    The long description is transfered for Key Figures, but not for Characteristics.

    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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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?

  • 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!

  • Can you use Crystal Reports for Enterprise to connect to BOE4 over the web?

    Hello,
    When I use Crystal Reports for Enterprise in BI Launchpad when I am connected on the LAN network it works.
    If I connect via the internet, it doesn't.
    I wanted to know if Crystal Reports for Enterprise only works if you are connected to Business Enterprise 4.0 on a LAN network and if it's not designed to work remotely, aka via the internet connection, like you can with Webi?
    regards
    Janetta

    Hello,
    We installed BOE4 on the server, it runs perfectly, no issues.
    Install Crystal Reports for Enterprise on a laptop. It's the latest one as I checked to see if there's any later versions or patches.
    I am able to log into the BOE Enterprise system as administrator.
    Namely I have setup the Server connections per the following:
    Server Name:   <IP address>
    The check box for SSL is unchecked.
    Server Port Number:   nnnn
    Server Context:  /dswsbobje
    System display name:   <my server> External Connection
    User Name : Administrator
    It connects successfully.
    I then go and create a report against a Universe that I can see listed on my BOE 4 server.
    It then comes up with this error message:
    "Unable to Logon: There is a problem logging on to SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise.
    Please check your logon credentials and make sure your nework is properly configured before trying again.
    If problems persist please contact your Administrator."
    Architecture: 
    BOE 4 sits on Windows 2008 Server SP2
    Laptops tried it on are Windows Vista and Windows 2003 Std.
    Thanks for looking into this for me.

  • 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

    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'.

    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 Reports for Enterprise - cannot change operator in query filters

    Hi,
    I am trying to apply multiple filters in a query for a Crystal Report (for Enterprise), but I can only use the default AND operator, whereas I need the OR operator. Supposedly you can change the operator by double clicking it, but it just didn't work with me.
    Ýour help is highly appreciated,
    Victoria

    Hello Victoria,
    You can try out Toolbar->Data->Formula->Record Filter. Here you can just type in your filter and the operators are available on the left hand side. (If they are not, then check on the top left. You might see a button to switch to "Advanced" formula workshop). On the ledt hand side drill down the operator->Boolean->AND(x and y).
    Hope this helps.

  • Crystal Reports for Enterprise and universe connections

    Hi, I have noticed an issue with Crystal Reports for Enterprise that may give many administrators a headache.
    If a BOBJ user has access to a sensitive universe (eg HR or Finance data) to run pre-built WebI reports from  (but not create new ones or edit the universe) then they must have been give data-access to that universe's connection object. Security on the universe and folder could prevent them from accessing information from the universe they shouldn't see or editing the reports and creating new ones.
    However if the same user is given access to Crystal Reports for Enterprise in order to access other data sources, then the fact that they have data-access to the above universe connection object now creates a security problem.
    Crystal for Enterprise allows a user to open a universe connection object as a data-source. If the user opened the connection for the above 'sensitive' universe they could see all the data in the database - avoiding any universe level restrictions in the process.
    What is the suggested way around this? There doesn't appear to be granular enough security to prevent users with data access on a connection object also using that object to create new reports in Crystal for Enterprise.
    The only way around it I can see is to deny the user access to the sensitive universe output altogether, but this changes the whole business process for the team involved.
    thanks
    Keith

    I have a couple of thoughts:
    1.  Create a special reporting user in the database that only has access to a set of views that don't include the sensitive information.  Then create a universe based on those views which uses a connecting that logs in as that special user.  Give the folks who don't have access to the sensitive data access to this connection and universe instead of the universe and connection that include the sensitive data.
    2.  Since you have BO, you should have a support contract.  I would report this as a bug.  However, SAP may tell you that it is "working as designed", in which case you could go to IdeaPlace (https://ideas.sap.com/) and add this as a requested enhancement.

    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

  • 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
