Crystal report in coldfusion MX

I am just starting to use crystal report in Coldfusion MX, my
crystal report is pre-defined
<cfreport
report="directory/crstlrpt.rpt"
datasource = "ds_name"
username="user"
password="password">
but when browse it, nothing happening, i would be very
appreciated if any one out there can help me.

thank you for your reply, we have crystal report 8.0
and 8.5, for now, and not planning to go any higher.
so cfreport tag will work for 8.0 or 8.5?
the crystal report i created is using odbc data source, not
coldfusion.
is the following code right? or do i need to do something
else, thanks again for your reply
<cfreport
report="directory/crstlrpt.rpt"
datasource = "ds_name"
username="user"
password="password">

Integrating segate crystal report 7.0 with coldfusion Mx 7

hi,
i am using coldfusion mx 7 to view seagate crystal report
7.0 on internet explorer 6.0 thru IIS 6. but, Ie is not showing the
report thru cfm file. i can browse the report directly. i am
thinking that coldfusion mx 7 is not supporting seagate crystal
report 7.0
please suggest me any solution ASAP.
Thanks.

No, Oracle 11g never existed 10 years ago. It may work but CR 7 is so old now I can't say what issues there may or may not be.
ODBC may be your best option to connect but if any issues all I can suggest is to upgrade.
Good luck

Using a Web Service as a data provider for a Crystal Report

I'm trying to write a Crystal Reports XI report that uses a Web Service as the data provider. I have a Web Service written in ColdFusion that looks like this. <cfcomponent displayName="FindEmployee" > <cffunction name="FindEmployeeSort" access="remote" returnType="xml" output="false"> <cfdump var=form> <cfset myXML = "">  <cfquery name="EmployeeQuery" datasource="Production"> Select * from employee <cfif isdefined('form.lastname')> WHERE lastname LIKE '%#form.lastname#%' </cfif> Order by lastname asc </cfquery> <cfreturn EmployeeQuery> </cffunction> </cfcomponent> I can get the web service to work from a ColdFusion page (either locally or on a remote server).When I try to create the CR data source, I get the following error:Crystal Reports ! Logon Failed. Details: Cannot find correspondign table information in the XML fileThe steps I took were: * Choose XML from the "Avalable Data Sources" * Choose "Use Web Service Data Source" * Choose "Use HTTP(S) WSDL" with a url of <a href="http://host/directory/FindEmployee.cfc?wsdl">http://host/directory/FindEmployee.cfc?wsdl</a> * Leave the "HTTP(S) Web Service User ID:" and "HTTP(S) Web Service Password:" parameters blank * Accept the defaults for Services, Ports, and Methods. They are respectively FindEmployee, FindEmployee.cfc and FindEmployeeSort. * Then get the errorThe most likely candidate to me is the user id and password, but I have no idea what to use. I didn't have to set any login information up in the ColdFusion pages that I used to test the Web Service.Any ideas where to go from here?Thanks,Brian

Printing Crystal report from web

I am using crystal report 8.5 and Coldfusion MX 6.1
I open my report in a blank page. Everything show up
properly.
However, in my report, I have 12 pages. When I print it it
only show up as 1-2 pages. I notice that on screen, when I click
next ( to go to the next page of the report ), the url show up as
whatever my path is and the word "report" + the page -1 + htm
eg. If I am on page 2 of the report, my url would be
\\localhost\mywebfolder\report1.htm
Anyone have the same problem? Any solution?
* I am thinking of taking off the grouping in the report, see
if that make any different!

Hiya,
It isn't clear how you are calling the report (cfreport,
location, etc.,).
With 8.5 professional and higher, there is report server; 8.5
enforces the five instance connection license that the 8.0 version
implied and the 7.0 version didn't have at all. This methodology
allows for using the Crystal web report engine which supports the
use of an ActiveX viewer or Java Viewer.
I have an annoyance where an application that has run for
more than five years using the ActiveX viewer used to run without
prompting for database credentials but now does.
Take a look here for some hints
http://www.vordesigns.com/Portal/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=154
I can send you the page cfm pages I use but it references a
table of report names, you will have to do a little of your own
debugging to get it to work in your enviroment.
There is also a topic post in March from me

Running a Crystal Report in CF5

Hello
I have been asked to write an app to query a Sybase server
and then run some reports, based on user input.
I though about writing the reports in Crystal (I have Crystal
Reports Professional 10) and then using Coldfusion (we use version
5 here :o( ) to create a front end.
Ideally the user will complete a form, click submit and then
the report is generated and displayed for them.
First off is this possible?
Second how would I go about generating the report? Is it just
a simple case of using <CFReport> ?
I'm fairly new to coldfusion so please forgive me if this is
a stupid question. I have tried google-ing but come up blank
Cheers

<CFREPORT> doesn't work with CR10, I believe.
I do this with CR8.5, Crystal Enterprise 8.0, and CF4.5.2.
Just pass the parameters in a querystring to the report. Look at
the page source of the report to determine the parameter names to
pass. It should look something like

Crystal Report 2013

Hi there ,
I was just wondering if anyone has ever come across the needs to run a Crystal Report 2013 report file (.rpt) file from ColdFusion?
I am currently using ColdFusion 9, but it seems that the cfreport tag does not work with Crystal Report 2013?
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ivan.

Hi Chetan,
If you have installed SAP GUI before the Crystal Reports then you need to reinstall SAP GUI or update SAPLOGON.INI file.

Sales quote layout rows doubled in crystal report layout

Dear All,
Sales quote layout rows doubled in crystal report layout.
In sales quote layout the rows are doubled. Even in the standard layout. If the quote contains only two rows. Then it is doubled as 4 rows in the crystal report layout.
It is happening in the particular database. Other database are working fine. I request you people to help me to overcome this issue.

Siva

Hi Nagarajan,
thanks for reply..
1) Yes, i.e i have taken into BomType: Template
2) i did not get any helpful output by using treetype by keeping 'S' and 'N', i kept in comment.
3) Actually MT0001-05 - these are material item- unit prices are fixed. see in attached image
 for parent item, unit prices are not fixed. I give the price for them in Sale Order.
 I want unit price for parent and child should be summed/cumulative for Sale Order print.
 (in my above post, first matrix exactly same as sale order line items plz check it)
Please help me, how i can achieve this by query(for PLd or Crystal report)
With Regards

SQL Connections remain open after Crystal Report closes

I am wirting an interface to use the crystal report viewer to print reports, connecting to a Progress Open Edge 10.1B database. From our application we declare the application, report, exportoptions and connectionproperties objects and pass these to the crystal reports viewer. Once the report is printed we release the objects and set their variables for null. However we are finding that the SQL connection to the database is remaining connected and we can only release the connection by manually going in a disconnecting.
I have read in forums that people use .dispose or .close to release the connection, however we do not have access to these methods as we do not use .NET. Are there any methods we can use to disconnect these sql connections?

Hi Dean,
Moved to the Legacy Application forums. Likely using the RDC as your report engine.
You should still be able to close and dispose of the report objects. They are not specific to .NET.
In VB it would look something like these lines::
    crReport.Close
    Set CrystalActiveXReportViewer1.ReportSource = Nothing
    Set crReport = Nothing
Once the report is closed it should disconnect from the DB. If you close the application does that disconnect?
Have you looked on 4GL's site for info on how to?
Thank you
Don

Dunning Letter as Crystal Report: What tables? (SAP B1 9.0)

Dear Experts,
I am being asked to revise the Dunning Letters for our clients. The existing PLDs for each Dunning Letter shows most data fields as system variables. The existing Crystal Report for Dunning Letter 1 is a conversion from the PLD and doesn't show table information for most of the report's main items. There are tables in the report but they are standard ones (OADM, OADP, OCRD, OHEM, OSLP). It also includes a "table" called "PLD__ITEMS" which has all the PLD system variables and no B1 table or field/column information.
As I'm just now starting to work with dunning letters, I see that I can't even run this report in Crystal. The PLD__Items datasource prompts me for a file path and class name. Any ideas what one enters here to run the report outside of B1 (from the Crystal report designer)?
The main focus of my question is: Has anyone created a Crystal Report to replicate the Dunning Letter and if so, what tables are involved and how are they connected? If I can create a Dunning Letter entirely in Crystal, I can replicate it across all clients and get the correct fields/columns of data the clients want. The inclusion of the PLD__Items apparently limits my ability to test the results. I would prefer to avoid the PLD limitations.
Thanks for any assistance.

Thank you Nagarajan. I have a dunning letter created in Crystal Reports for our client. It is fairly limited in scope, it just has the customer name and address, invoice numbers and dates, amounts due and the text they wanted in it.
I can import it into B1 9.0 and set it as the default for Dunning Letter #1 and it runs, but unlike other formats where there is a DocEntry and/or ObjectID and a ?DocKey@ or ?ObjectId@ parameter, how do I limit the report to just one customer? Typical document layouts run for the document that's on the screen. In the dunning process, the report runs once for every customer when the Dunning Letter Method is set to "One Letter per BP". I have to limit the report to one customer at a time. Right now, each dunning letter based on the Crystal report is identical and it contains all the data for every customer.
So, does anyone have any ideas for what selection criteria needs to be included in the Crystal report to have it select just one customer from the dunning wizard tables? Thanks.
Michael
Edit: I created a ?WizardID@ parameter and a ?CardCode@ parameter to limit the report to a single dunning wizard event and a single customer. While it works fine in Crystal itself, it doesn't work in B1 at all. I had thought that by limiting the report in this way, it would only create dunning letters for a single customer.

Code working fine at Windows XP, But it is not woking in Windows 7 environment.
Please can anyone share your valuable thoughts or ideas reg. this.
Thanks in Advance

It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

Print crystal report without using the print button on toolbar

Hi,
I am working on Crystal report XI. I need to print the report w/o using the toolbar. So I have inserted a print icon in the report. On clicking that icon it should call a jsp page which will print the report. I am not able to call any print methods provided by JRC to do this.
Can someone help me with this problem.
Is there some other way to implement it ?
Thanks

Print the report where? On what printer? The server's printer?
Java code runs on the server. You can't affect the client's computer from JSP.
You can write javascript code which can call window.print() but that is working through the browser to display the print dialog box (as if the user selected file:print)

Performance issue - Open a Crystal Report from SAP BW

Hi,
I have an general question on the performance of Crystal Reports: We are using Crystal Reports 2008 SP 2 in context with SAP BW 7.0. We don't have a BO XI. We use the BW as a central storage for our reports. Now we have the problem that the opening of some reports takes a long time. For expample one report needs ~13 secound an another > 5 minutes.
Where can be the problem? What happens in SAP BW when a report is called? And what can we do to make it faster?
Thanks for your informations!

Hi Ingo,
the value of MaxPickListSize is "c8".
Yesterday I have spent a lot of time to find the bottleneck. I have traced the SQL statements, which are performed from Crystal Reports / Integration Kit when I open a report. It might be the values for the parameters. That's our situation:
Crystal Reports
|
Query (restriced on Cube 1)
|
MultiProvider
- Cube 1
- Cube 2
- Cube 3
- DSO 1
The slow report is based on the BW Query and in the filter restricted to the Cube 1. If I open the report, all values for the parameters are read from all the InfoProviders under the MultiProvider (Cube 1, Cube 2 Cube 3 and DSO 1). The very big DSO 1, which is not used, increases the duration extremly. This may not be the desired behavior?! Is this a bug? I would expected that only the values are loaded from Cube 1.

Huge delay in Printing Crystal Report Layout

Good Day Experts,
I am experiencing big delays when printing a document that makes use of a Crystal Report Layout Design.
For example,
The Sales Quote is set to automatically print when added by the user.
When clicking 'Add', SAP freezes up and only about 30 seconds later does the printer finally print the document.
During that time, the user cannot use SAP at all.
The layout does have a lot of fields and a few formulas here and there.
Logically, I am thinking that that is the reason for the delay, as SAP needs to calculate and populate those fields.
Is there any other way that I could speed up this process? Or if you know what might be causing this speed issue?
Your assistance will be appreciated,
Thanks
Regards
Dario
