Crystal Report parameters presentation in InfoView

I have a report, based on a SQL store procedure with parameters. It passes parameters thru Business Views to report and presents them in info view, producing following for each parameter:
1. description (on the left)
2. sql internal parameter name, starting with @
3. value entry box
4. checkbox for Null
I need to get riid of items 2 and 4
Is that possible?
Notes: if someone would try to cantact me, my normal working hours from 7am till 3:30 pm us eastern time
Thanks

Hi Inna,
If you have created dynamic parameters then those parameters will be saved into Business Views.
Then try to run the LOV'S in the business view manager.
You can run the parameters using dynamic cascading prompts based on the first parameter you can get the third parameter values.
We can get rid of the parameter values for 2nd and 4th parameter.
Create the report in crystal designer and then you just publish the report to enterprise.
Thanks,
Naveen.

Crystal report server2008 (XI R2): InfoView Request timeout error

HI
Crystal report server2008 (XI R2): InfoView Request timeout error
            Some reports which are taking more than 10 to 15 minutess while running through InfoView gives error as follows:
An error has occured: Request timed out.
This error appears within the crystal report server and when user tries to access through browser client desktop also. Sometimes it prompts the error as follows when users try to access through browsers from there desk i.e through proxy connection.
   The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
   The proxy serer could not handle the request POST/report/CrystalReports/Viewrpt.aspx.
    Reason: Error reading from remote server
The timeout setting of all web.config files under infoviewapp, infoviewappactions, platform services, crystal reports folders have been checked and the default timeout 20 minutes is changed to 30 minutes and IIS is restarted, but still users are getting request timeout error within 10 to 15 minutes while running a crystal report. Even admin user.

How to read Crystal Reports Parameters

I am using vs 2010 ,Crystal Reports, VB.Net , ASP.Net 4.0 and Telerik control RADCOMBOBOX.
I what to be able to read a reports parameter values and populate the RADCOMBOBOX with the values of the
Crystal Report Parameters.
How do I read; get access to those report parameters. The parameters for the report may be one to mutiple parameters.
Thanks in advance... I'm under the gun

Hi,
The parameter fields on the report can be accessed using the In Proc RAS .NET SDK.
Take a look at the Crystal Reprots for Visual Studio 2010 [RAS .NET SDK Developer Guide |http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sapCRVS2010/en/xi4_rassdk_net_dg_en.zip] and the [API Reference Guide|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/sapCRVS2010/en/xi4_rassdk_net_api_en.zip]
Sample applications are available [here|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/b02c1cac-ad86-2b10-88ae-cb36551bab06].
Hope it helps,

Crystal report parameters not available when running from within SAP B1

Hi
I have found this problem a few times already and I think it is now about time I find a solution for it.
On my latest Crystal report, I have 2 parameters.
The 1e is a dynamic parameter, allowing the user to select multiple groups.
The 2nd is also a dynamic parameter, allowing the user to select only a single item.
These parameters works fine in Crystal and do what they are supposed to do.
After publishing the report in SAP Busines One (SBO) and viewing it from within SBO, the 2 parameter prompts are still there but without the dynamic list to select any data from.
On a previous report where a parameter has been defined as "Any value can be entered for the parameter" once again worked fine in crystal but from within SBO the parameter allowed no value to be entered.
Have anyone got a solution for this.
Regards
Burger

Sorry guys
You have lost me. I have searched the form and I have worked through the whole pdf you suggested.
I have no idea what I am supposed to do or see or use "ItemGroup@ SELECT ItmsGrpCod, ItmsGrpNam FROM OITB ORDER BY ItmsGrpCod"
As a test I created a test report with the following parameters to test how it would present itself in B1
1.     A static parameter with no list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = True u2013 B1 result. A box that I could enter anything. Defeating the object as I wanted a list of valid options
2.     A static parameter with no list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. A box that I could enter anything. Defeating the object as I wanted a list of valid options
3.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = True u2013 B1 result. A box that I could select multiple values from a list. I could not add my own value. Defeating the object as the list is static
4.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. A drop down box where I could select one of the values. Defeating the object as the list is static
5.     A static parameter with a list. Allow custom Values = False, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. Same as in point 4
6.     A Dynamic parameter. Allow custom Values = True, Allow Multiple Values = False u2013 B1 result. Same as in point 1 & 2. No Dynamic list returned and can not add own option
As mentioned. All the parameters work in Crystal as one expect it to. What I am after is what should I change in B1 so that the report works the same as in Crystal.
Where in B1 should it be changes and to what should it be changed.
If the changes should be done in crystal to cater for B1 then what should be changes where to what
I am not that familiar with B1.
In my test report I use B1 table OITM.
My parameter is Item (Crystal syntax {?Item}) and I use it in a filter to say {OITM.ItemCode} = {?Item}

Open Crystal Report full screen at InfoView and hide navigation panel

Dear all,
In InfoView, how to globally set so that Crystal Report document will be opened as full screen and also hiding the navigation panel.
I know InfoView > Preference can open in full screen, but this must be done for each user. How to set it globally for all users?
And also to hide the navigation panel on the left hand side (parameters, group tree) that applies for all user (global)?
Thank you very much.
Kind regards,
aswin

Dear Martijn van Foeken,
Wow that's so advanced.
1. Do you have any information like what table and field in CMS database that we need to change in order to modify the BOE user preferences in InfoView?
2. For hiding the Navigation Panel in CR viewer, i was thinking if the setting might need to be done on the CR viewer. I tried changing the config file below:
D:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\CrystalReports\crystalreportviewers\Web.config
In that config file there's a parameter below which i set to "true" but it doesn't work.

<add key="viewrpt.groupTreeHide" value="true"/>
Any idea?
Thank you very much Martijn and Merry Christmas.
Kind regards,
aswin

BEx hierarchies not displayed in Crystal report parameters

Hi All,
I am trying to using a Bex query that has a cost center hierarchy with a variable that allows users to select specific nodes or even cost centers. In BEx reports, this query works fine and gives the users the view of the cost centres in a hierarchial manner. However, in Crystal reports, the query provides a drop down menu displaying a simple list of all the cost centres (not in a hierarchial manner). This confuses the user as to which element is a node and which is a cost centre
Kindly suggest how can we achieve the cost centre hierarchy to appear in the parameters in Crystal.
Thanks

SQL server Database - Command based Crystal reports parameters issue

Hi,
We are migrating Oracle to SQL server database and trying to point our crystal reports to new database.
In command based reports, the parameters are defined in the where clause like this
(' All' in {?Country} or loc.country in {?Country} )
On modifying the report script to ANSI standard, loc.country in {?Country} gets recognized by Crystal but 'All' in {?Country} does not work.
I am pretty sure that it should be defined in a different way,but not able to figure out.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Nithya

IPhone App Crystal Reports Parameters

Hi,
Is there a way to publish Crystal Reports with parameters on the iPhone App. I can only publish reports with no parameters. If I try to publish one with parameters, it fails to display.
thanks,

My consultant(Vision-33) told me SAP B1 doesn't support on this version. maybe next version.
Thanks

Crystal reports login prompt from Infoview

We recently installed a BOE XI 3.1 system. When I navigate to a crystal report in INFOVIEW and click it I am prompted for a login. By defautl we want to use WinAD for authentication but for this login the default is Enterprise. I change the authentication to WinAD, provide my user name and password and click Log On and the crystal report is displayed. Is there a *.xml or config file that controls this?

If you configure the login info via CMC you can select AD if the report was designed via AD (aka trusted connection)
If you want to have the users credentials submitted to the DB at viewtime then you must choose SSO in the CMC and configure SSO to the DB. [steps are located here in this doc|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/3097fb98-c63e-2b10-e7b8-fb7253566373] only kerberos will allow you to delegate user credentials to the DB.

Crystal reports not running in infoview

Hi ,
Created a report using excel as datasource via odbc DSN. Report runs fine in Crystal but gives an error in Infoview ." database logon information is either incomplete or incorrect"
Have tried every possible way to make it workou but in vain.
Pls suggest any solutions.

Hi Stratos, In your previous reply below
"You have to create the DSN to your excel file also on your BOBJ server as you did on your local workstation. When CR runs in the InfoView it will try to locate the DSN on the BOBJ server. In order to do this correctly please use odbcad32.exe.
Importing the Excel file in the BO repository does not really help. You have to consider to copy the Excel file on your BOBJ server or copy it in a shared drive (which is accessible from both your local workstation and the BOBJ server).
Regards,
Stratos"
I am assuming these are two different methods: In 1st one i will need to make connection to ODBC and in second one it will be Access/Excel (in crystal)
Am I right?

Crystal Reports XI R2 Server: InfoView - Save Preferences Issues

Hello All;
I beleive this issue is related to how I set the security for the users/groups/folders.
Once I have the user defined and attached to a group then to a folder, I cannot save it preferences in InfoView. Any suggestions how the security is suppose to set up from the user to the folder level.
I sign on as administrator in CMC under Business Object Enterprise Application/Infoview, I have granted rights to change user preferences. but left Everyone will inherit rights from the parental group box unchecked.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David Lee
Application Administrator

Once I have the user defined and attached to a group then to a folder, I cannot save it preferences in InfoView. Any suggestions how the security is suppose to set up from the user to the folder level.
Which preferences do you mean? The preferences every user can change (if allowed) in Infoview? i,e, what you see on the top-right corner in Infoview?

InfoView not defaulting print settings from Crystal Reports XI

I have a form/report created from Crystal Reports XI published to InfoView that has the print settings set for the manual tray when printed. When running the report in InfoView, it does not default to the manual tray when printing. I am publishing directly from Crystal Reports. I have the Process/Print Setup 'Set layout to: Report file default' and the Schedule/Format 'Use options saved with report' checkbox checked. I am not finding any other settings to tell InfoView to use the report page layout/printer settings. Anyone know of any other options I should check? Thanks!
Edited by: Kelley Freelove on Oct 22, 2009 3:09 PM

That would be the correct forum as this one is for SDK issues only.
If you are not getting helped on the other BO forum you may want to consider creating a case if you have a valid support contract.
