Determine version used to create a report at runtime?

Is there a way to determine what version of Crystal was used to create a report during runtime? I've looked at the objects and cannot find a property that might be used. There is a File Forrmat Schema property in the Report Definition item in the Performance Information Menu option in the designer that might be useful, but can't find a way to get in in the object model. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Directly off of the ReportClientDocument class there is a MajorVersion and MinorVersion property that contains this information.

Report template 101 - Comment Bubbles (used during creating SQL Report)

Hi,
There is a Report template type - Comment Bubbles [ Theme - 24, 25, 26 ]
Has anyone ever tried using this template while creating SQL Report.
OR if anyone knows how to use this and what should be the syntax of SQL query for using this template.
Thanks,
Deepak

Hi Deepak.
I assume you're running APEX 4.2
There is a packaged application included with 4.2 which is called "Customer Tracker"
On page 50 you find a rewgion where these comment bubles are used ( unlock the application to view the source ).

Creation of Generic Data source using function module based on the program which was used to created ABAP report

Hi,
We have a requirement to create a BI report based on plant maintenance report. The plant maintenance report is based on a ABAP program with complex logic. My question is i want create a Generic Datasource using Function module and can I include the logic(Abap Program) that is used for plant maintenance report in the function module? Please share your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ravi

Hi,
Step1-Create a table structure which you need to create same as the fields you require in you data source.
Step 2-create a custom abap program and inside that call the Client abap program with the selections as required and save the result data in some table
Step 3-create infoset query.In the infoset query give your table structure name and program name which you developed.
Step4-create data source on top of that query

What Universe was used to create a report?

Is there any way to tell what Universe was used to create a specific report, Also is there anyway to tell what Universe connection a specific Universe is using?
Thanks

Hey Ted,
Thanks but I got an error when I tried to do this. Here is the query that I used. Any thoughts?
Select * from CI_APPOBJECTS WHere SI_KIND='Universe' And SI_CUID='<ASBJCyAKjL1FhG1pNAMsor4>'.
and here is the error
A potentially dangerous Request.Form value was detected from the client (sqlStmt="... SI_CUID='<ASBJCyAKjL1FhG1pNAM...").
Description: Request Validation has detected a potentially dangerous client input value, and processing of the request has been aborted. This value may indicate an attempt to compromise the security of your application, such as a cross-site scripting attack. You can disable request validation by setting validateRequest=false in the Page directive or in the configuration section. However, it is strongly recommended that your application explicitly check all inputs in this case.

Creating Dynamic Reports at Runtime Using JRC

I am trying to integrate Crystal Reports into our web application. Our application currently provides the ability to create custom reports on any field(database column) in the application, including custom fields created by the user. Each customer's database will be different. Is there a way in Crystal Reports to dynamically build a report based on a custom query? I would need the ability to do this programmatically, through JSP, by adding and removing fields from a Crystal Report. My plan is to push the results of a query to a report viewer, but I need the ability to add, remove, resize, format or hide fields at runtime. I would also need the ability to modify the field headers and Group Header fields. Is this possible? Any suggestion or code samples would be greatly appreciated. I've read that RAS gives you some greater functionality creating and modifying reports at runtime. Does the RAS SDK include the functionality that I've described above?Thanks,Alan 

Hi bobbassen
You can take a look at the new Preferences API that is shipped along with JDK 1.4. This should help you in saving report structures in one place and help you modify it through a GUI without re-compilation.
see : http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/guide/lang/preferences.html
Keep me posted on your progress.
Good Luck!

Any idea or example given? If yes, can you provide a query here?

Hi Eric
In standard SAP Business One this is difficult as the reports are 2 dimensional. To achieve this you will need to write multiple select statements into a temporary table and then select the final result from the temp table. Here is a sample for you to test:
USE [*DATABASE_NAME*]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[REPORT_NAME] Script Date: 04/24/2009 13:17:21 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE proc [dbo].[*REPORT_NAME*]
as
set nocount on
begin
DECLARE @Day_no varchar(2)
DECLARE @Month_no varchar(2)
DECLARE @Year_no varchar(4)
DECLARE @Start_Date Datetime
SET @Day_no = DAY(GetDate())
SET @Month_no = MONTH(GetDate())
SET @Year_no = YEAR(GetDate())
SET @Start_Date = @Year_No + '/' + @Month_no + '/' + @Day_no -- + '/' + @Year_No

Go to Microsoft SQL Studio manager and select your company database. Then expand the list and select Programmability > Stored Procedures. Right click on Stored Procedures and select New Stored Procedure. Copy the above code over the code in the edit window and change the database name as well as report name. Then select Execute to create the stored procedure. If you make changes, remember to change the word CREATE to ALTER (with other words CREATE for the first execute, and ALTER thereafter). Then in SAP Business One create a new query and leave everything blank. Click on execute and select the pencil to change to edit mode. Remove the words SELECT and type in EXEC REPORT_NAME (change the REPORT_NAME to the name you used in SQL). Then execute again and the results will be displayed in SAP Business One.
Let me know if you get stuck. Remember the above is an example and will need to be changed to use your tables and fields as required. The basic idea is to move across by one column with each select statement. So for example the first select statement does the CURRENT column, the second one the 30DAYS column, and so on.
Kind regards

Creating multipage report using XSL

Hi
Here is one requirement in our project, where we have multiple purchase order in XML file, each of the purchase order may contains n number of lines. We have to create the PO report using the XSL-FO method.
If any purchase order printed on n no. of pages then page from 1 to (n-1) should display only subtotal and n th(the last page for respective purchase order) page should display the total of all the line involved in the respective purchase order.
I want to ask :
how it can be done?
Is it possible using XSL-FO or XSLT?

Apache FOP may be used to create PDF reports from an XML file.

Need Package Name to create SAP report in SE38

Hello there,
I'm in the process of working through a Unicode conversion on an ECC 6.0 system, and one of the steps is to run report TERM_DELETE_INCORRECT_CHARSET. We are on a lower Support Pack level then when this report is delivered via OSS Note 1280494, so I need to manually create it in SE38.
I'm used to creating Z reports and assigning them to our customer packages (Create Object Directory Entry popup box), but not used to assign to an SAP package. When I pick one that I believe would be appropriate, I receive error "Cannot extend package ***".
I'm hoping that someone can tell me what the appropriate package would be to get this report in the system so that I can move forward with my conversion.
Thanks in advance for any assistance,
Leeanna

In our system, this is assigned to package STERM. If you cannot use that one, I guess a customer (Z) package would be OK.

Two ways to create reports:
1) You install the Crystal reports Designer (CRW32.exe).
With your Crystal Report Server, you should also have received a second CD that would have the CR designer.
2) You use the RAS SDK and create reports on the fly using the RAS report creation APIs - .NET or Java. Since you are in the .NET developer forum, I assume you might be interested in the .NET RAS SDK. Here is a list of resources i would recommend:

ESS Create Expense Report

Hi
We have ECC6 and EP7 we are using the create expense report iview in ESS.
We have an issue whereby if a user creates an expense report and after saving uses the 'what do you want to do next' link 'Go To Travel Home Page' and is taken to the Travel Homep page, then clicks on 'Create Expense Report' it loads the claim that has just been saved. It should load the new claim screen.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Many thanks
Julie

confirmation link should be used
for example you can check
Please check the attached document in the note 1254912.
Follow the instructions regarding the confirmations links for the
resource EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_EXPENSES05.
Deselect the checkbox ( Show Restart Link )
Add the Service Key EMPLOYEE_TRAVEL_EXPENSEREPORT05
IN ABAP WD iviews this is not possible.

Create Expense Report - "Master Travel Company" error

Hello everyone,
I´m using the "Create Expense Report" funciton, from inside SAP Portal - ESS, and I´m getting an error, AFTER creating the "expense receipts record" (for a taxi trip for instance) saying something like this in english: "The company can't be different from the master company".
I've tried a few things to fix this but still no luck.
Can somebody help?
Thanks!

Nandagopal, thanks for the answer!
The Cost Center is maintained in it001. It0027 is not in use. Should it be? If so, what sub-type?
I was able to see that the field COMPANY was excluded from it17, do you think this could be the problem? (I´m currently asking the HR people to put the COMPANY field back on it17 in order to check).
Thanks!

Set the Database connection in report at runtime in VB 6.0

Hi,
I have a report created in CR XI that connects to the oracle server. The report works fine if I have same Service name in the tnsnames.ora file which I had used while creating the report.
But I dont want that. I want that I pass a recordset directly to the report and it uses the connection that was used to create the recordset. but it doesnt do that and I get "Failed to open the connection" error
This is the way I have the code
dim lrpt as CRAXDRT.Report
AdoRecordset.open (ReportQueryString)
lrpt.Database.SetDataSource (AdoRecordSet)
Can someone tell how can I make this working??

Determining the version of captivate used to create a presentation

Is there somewhere in the contents of a web presentation that I can find the version of captivate that was used to create it?

Hello,
I think this needs to done from the developer side , means from the preson who is developing your content and he must know which version he is using .
If you are talking about the user end , they will never able to check the version of Captivate in which course is published until and unless the developer passes a variable in the project whcih shows the version while playing the output.
Thanks

Create a report archive using iBot recurrence/versioning

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a report archive. I have an iBot set up that creates a report. Unfortunately the report is written over each time the iBot is run. I'd like to have the iBot create a new report each time it is run. Is this possible? If not, can I create another iBot that somehow saves the previous one and then fires the main iBot to run the report again? Any ideas are appreciated.
Thanks!
Nick

Hi,
if you're delivering the reports to a directory you can use the following javascript
(advanced tab). Everytime the iBot is run, a new file will be used.
var FSO = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var fileName = GetConfigurationValue("Log Dir", "iBots") +
"\\" + JobID + "-" + InstanceID + "-" + UserID + "-" +
Parameter(0);
var fooFile = FSO.CopyFile(Parameter(0), fileName, true);

How to create a report using XML data source from Crystal Report Designer

Hi,
Iu2019m having Crystal Report Designer XI R2 SP4. Iu2019m trying to create a report using XML data source stored on disk. This is a customer order report and the xml is structured in such a way that it has an order details header part (master) and then it has several order lines (detail). One order line can have several order line characteristics (detail-detail). So what I need to know is now I can design this layout from the designer. If this was done using views I can do it with sub-reports but using xml data this seems to be different. Can you help me to design this layout? I have included the xml and xsd as well.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Sourashree,
Thank you for the response and ideas you have given me so far. I can get the fetch the data from the data source without any problem. That is I do the following,
1. New Report
2. From Create New Connection-> XML
3. Provide the u201CLocal XML Fileu201D and have u201CSpecify Schema Fileu201D checked -> Next
4. Provide the u201CLocal Schema Fileu201D -> Finish
Then I can see the following under XML
+ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
And from here if I add the following three I can get all the fields I need to the report
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
Then I come to the Linking section. Here I canu2019t link anything. There is a common field called u201CInternal_IDu201D but I canu2019t link using it. So I get a message when I click Next. From here I add all the fields.
For this point onwards only I need help. How do I group, add fields and design the layout so I can get an report output as follows.
Date
Order number Authorized code
Customer No
Name
Phone
Fax email
Shipping address 1 Billing Address 1
Shipping address 2 Billing Address 2
Shipping address 3 Billing Address 3
Shipping address 4 Billing Address 4

Order Line 4 detailsu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026
Characteristic details belonging to Order line 4
Order Line 5 detailsu2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026
Characteristic details belonging to Order line 5
How can I achieve this kind of a layout using the give xml and xsd? Should I use grouping if so how should I do the grouping?
I have included the full xml and xsd in the first mail I posted but I canu2019t see it now. I can include that again if you want.
Regards,
Chanaka

Determine version used to create a report at runtime?
