Crystal Report multiple columns

I'm having trouble with Crystal Report's multiple columns in the detail section.
The details section, the multiple columns is checked then the printing direction is across - down. Since the form I am using is a pre-printed form, by estimation it can only allow at best 30 records in one page, that is 15 in the 1st half of the column and another 15 records on the next. For visual:
Invoice No    Invoice Date        invoice total                                               Invoice No    Invoice Date        invoice total
1                                                                                16
2                                                                                17
3                                                                                .
.                                                                                28
14                                                                                29
15                                                                                30
For some reason there is this giant space after the last set of rows before it prints out the page footer. This giant blank section disrupts the layout of the page footer section.
Here are some info on the details section as configuration is involved:
Format with Multiple Columns - checked
In Paging: New Page after 30 visible Records
In Layout: Width: 3.5 in       Height: 0.0 in
                 Horizontal: 0.0 in      Vertical: 0.0 in
Printing Direction: Across-Down
Anyone knows how to suppress it or have the page footer move upwards?
P.S To see actual pre-printed form, please download this [http://www.mediafire.com/i/?csu0q75mjynys2k]

Now why didn't I try that out. Actually, initial plan was 2 subreports.
So when I added the second subreport in the group footer section, it only prints the details on the last page, which should not be the case as I need to be printed on all pages.
I'll test it out. I'll post an update soon.
Thanks.

Crystal Report: Multiple Join in Table

Hi experts,
I have a problem adding a table in a report.
The layout I'm modifing is the Purchase Order (CR). The report contains the necessary tables linked via the Database Expert to OPOR master table.
I need to add the Vendor Item Code in the OSCN table. To reach he correct code I have TWO values: ItemCode and CardCode.
ItemCode is in the POR1 row, and CardCode is in OPOR table.
I tried to add the table and link CardCode between OPOR and OSCN, and the field ItemCode between POR1 and OSCN but crystal say me that, he cannot join a just joined table!
So, how can I add the table OSCN linked correctly in the existing report ti dislay the correct Vendor Item Code near the ItemCode from OITM?
Thanks for your answers.

hi Jonny,
paste this to your SQL query window to create this Stored Procedure
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
-- =============================================
-- Author: <Author,,Name>
-- Create date: <Create Date,,>
-- Description: <Description,,>
-- =============================================
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[YourSP_Name]
AS
BEGIN
 SET NOCOUNT ON;
 SELECT OPOR.DocNum, POR1.DocEntry, POR1.LineNum, POR1.ItemCode, OPOR.CardCode, OSCN.Substitute
 FROM OPOR INNER JOIN
 POR1 ON OPOR.DocEntry = POR1.DocEntry INNER JOIN
 OSCN ON OPOR.CardCode = OSCN.CardCode AND POR1.ItemCode = OSCN.ItemCode INNER JOIN
 OITM ON OSCN.ItemCode = OITM.ItemCode
 ORDER BY POR1.DocEntry
END
GO
then call this stored procedure in Crystal report

Crystal Report - multiple sales document types

In XLR, I can easily drag 'DocNum', 'DocDate', 'Sales Doc Type' fields and specify the filter to show sales doc type equal to A/R invoice and A/R credit memo. It neatly shows various types of sales documents and display them in rows.
In crystal, I have to drag the 'DocNum', 'DocDate' fields for A/R Invoice, A/R credit memo individually under different columns. Is there a way I can dispaly mixed sales document types in rows? Thanks.

Hi,
In XLR, you get the data from JDT1 table. You can do the same for CR.
Thanks,

Newspaper style report (multiple column sets across the page)

Hello,
I have an Answers report that displays the "top 20" and has only 2 narrow columns (name and total). So in the dashboard it looks like a long vertical strip:
aaa 999
aaa 999
aaa 999
aaa 999
It would look much nicer if it was a "newspaper style", where you have more than one column set across the page:
aaa 999 | aaa 999
aaa 999 | aaa 999
aaa 999 | aaa 999
Is this possible to be done using OBI EE? I searched for a "newspaper style" checkbox in the report properties (hoping that it would be that easy) but no luck... I couldnt find any posts in this forum either, maybe I am using the wrong terminology.
Thanks
Luis

Hi Luis,
yes, this is possible by using a pivot table. assuming you want 10 records per column, you need to do the following:
1) add a column to your report with this formula:
RCOUNT(Column) - 10 * FLOOR((RCOUNT(Column) - 1) / 10)
2) add another column to your report with this formula:
FLOOR((RCOUNT(Column) -1) / 10)
3) go to pivot table
4) add column 1) to Rows Section
5) add column 2) to columns section
6) add the other columns in measures box
7) add aggregation rule to "FIRST" for all columns in measures box
8) put measure label box in rows section under the box of column 2)
Regards,
Stijn

Crystal 9 - Multiple Column formatting

I am trying to format a report with 2 columns per page. A specific group needs to be kept together within the same column. So if the header is in column a the group footer also has to be in column a not column b. The Keep Together works per page but not between columns.
Any suggestions how to make this work?

To keep the group in one column will depend on the amount of data per group and the length of the page so I would recommend using a very long page, possibly even creating a custom page size in the default printer driver. If you are using CR2008 then you can control the page size within CR itself.
If you need the next grouping to start in the next column then you insert a section below the Group Footer and set the GFb to print at bottom of page.

Multiple Column by Group

I am designing 2 column crystal report. each column can hold 1 group for example group 1, followed by group 2. I would like the group 3 printed on the 2nd column-meaning, next to group 1. I can't find a way to tell CR to do so. Kindly advise.

SELECT cust_nbr, order_dt, COUNT(order_nbr)
FROM cust_order
GROUP BY cust_nbr, order_dt;
CUST_NBR ORDER_DT COUNT(ORDER_NBR)
         1 18-JUL-01                2
         1 19-JUL-01                2
         1 22-JUL-01                4
         4 16-JUL-01                2
         4 18-JUL-01                2
         5 12-JUL-01                2
         5 20-JUL-01                2
         5 21-JUL-01                2
         8 22-JUL-01                2
9 rows selected.This shows that the grouping is done on the combination of the two columns (cust_nbr, order_dt) in group by clause, and their order of appearence in group by clause does not matter. Hence you will get same output for both queries.
GROUP BY cust_nbr, order_dt;
or
GROUP BY order_dt,cust_nbr;

Problem in designing multiple columns crystal report

I have got a crystal report having around 25 columns(all are test boxes) in header section.Out of these 25, I can view only 10 columns in crystal reports design window. When I view the contents as 25% I can view all the columns. Now I want to add one new column almost at the end. How can I add it. As last section of report is not under white background (visible in design window) I'm not able to do any modifications to it.
Please help....

Multiple Column Report Question

Post Author: LCS213
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
I'm creating a student transcript report that has multiple columns, and is three groups deep. The first two groups need to be in a columnar layout. However, I'd like the third group to contain a subreport that spans the width of the entire page.
Are there any options within Crystal XI to do this? I know in the Section Expert, i can format the detail level with multiple columns, and on the Layout tab, I can select "Format Groups with multiple columns". But that seems like it either formats ALL groups or NO groups. Am I mistaken? Is there a workaround I'm missing?
Thanks in advance for any help on this issue!

Hi Dan,
According to your description, we are not clear about the “6 sections for each Additional task”. Do you mean six data records? If so, based on my understanding, there are three groups and eighteen records in your report. You want to make those records appear
on eighteen separated pages, right?
In Reporting Service, we can add a page break to groups within data regions to control the amount of information on each page. In your scenario, you should add page break to group “Sub task”, group “Additional Task” and details. As we tested in our environment,
add page break to these records, the report appears in eighteen pages. Please refer to steps below:
1.On Group Properties of Details1, choose “Between each instance of a group” option on Page Breaks page. Please refer to screenshot below:
Choose same option on Group Properties for group “Month” and “Name”.
2.Click drop-down button next to Column Groups, then choose Advanced Mode.
3.Click on Static under Row Groups, set RepeatOnNewPage as True in Tablix Member Properties.
4.Click Preview, the results before and after adding page break look like below:
If you still have any question, please post some detail information or screenshot about the report design you expect.
Best regards,
Qiuyun Yu

Column level access in Crystal Report Server

Hi,I have three fields in my Crystal Report. The crystal report will be exported to PDF by my customised web application. The application has a built in user security and access control model. However if user 1 logs in he should see all the 3 columns(database fields) on the exported PDF. If user 2 logs in he should see only first 2 columns as he has access to only those. We would also be using Crystal Report Server.I know this could be done in Crystal Report itself but is there any way to leverage column level access (and also row level) functionality using Crystal Report Server. The Crystal Report reports off an ODBC Datasource.It would be great if any one could help me in this regard. Cheers.  

If you were running the same version designer and server, you could open your reports straight from the repository, and save them straight back. Then you wouldnt have multiple versions of RPTs flying about.
I have just purchased a new licence for 2008 and an 2008 upgrade for a Xr2.
I don't think I completely understand, but we do have Crystal Reports 2008 and Crystal Reports Server 2008 available for purchase.

Multiple column report

Hi,I am designing a 3 column crystal report. Each column can hold 30 records. I would like the first 30 records printed straight down the 1st column and the 31 record printed on the 2nd column. I can't find a way to tell CR to do so. Thanks for any help.Joy Liaw

this is what I did when I needed multi culumns,
go to section expert on Detail section. on common tab,
at end of list is a chec for multiple columns, after that is checked a new tab is displayed,called layout, from there set up your columns.

Multiple Column Header in Report (BEx and Web Reporting)

Hi All,
 I've a requirement where my reports is having multiple column header.
 To be precise the column header is further divided into many sub-columns (upto 4 levels).
Structure cannot help in this case since we have more than 2 such columns and we are using web reporting as well.
Here is how it looks
 Header-A
Header-B1 | Header-B2 | Header-B3 | Header-Bn
Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2 |Hdr-D1 |Hdr-D2 |Hdr-E1 |Hdr-E2 |Hdr-Fn..
The above is a sample header structure.
This report will be a Web Based report and I need to know whether its possible to do it in BEx also.
We are not using Crystal Reports.
If there is any document related to this, please mail to
[email protected]
Thanks & Regards,
Chandran Ganesan

Hi Chandran,
I hope i am getting your problem right.
If your
Header-B1 | Header-B2 | Header-B3 | Header-Bn
Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2 |Hdr-D1 |Hdr-D2 |Hdr-E1 |Hdr-E2 |Hdr-Fn..
are a set of key figures, then there is an option.
For example:
You drag Header-B1,Hdr-C1 |Hdr-C2
into column section.Right click on Hdr-C1, Hdr-C2 and select down under. So your Hdr-C1, Hdr-C2 will be under
Header-B1.
Like wise drag Header-B2,Hdr-D1,Hdr-D2
Right click on Hdr-D1,Hdr-D2 and say Down under and these two will fit below Header-B2.
You can repeat the above steps for Header-B3... Header-Bn
The output will be same as the one you have specified above.
Hope it helps,
Regards,
Parth.
