Do I need a new Crystal Reports XI license key?

Hello. I am hoping someone here can help me, as I have not had any luck getting useful information over the phone.
I have uninstalled Crystal Reports XI from a computer. How can I use the same license key for a new installation on a different computer for a different end-user in the near future? Or is the license key only allowed to be used on the machine it was originally installed on? My organization does have a paid software agreement.
I found this link:
http://www.businessobjects.com/support/Getting_Business_Objects_Product_Keycodes.pdf
but my department supervisor is probably the only one who can access this (you need a certificate/authentication code), as he orders the software agreements. Am I on the right track, or are there more steps involved?
Thank you very much for any information you can provide.

How can I use the same license key for a new installation on a different computer for a different end-user in the near future?
- You should be able to simply enter the keycode when prompted on install of CR XI.

  • Crystal Report XI license key

    We have have been trying to obtain a license key for Crystal Reports XI, CR Professional Full, Product Version 11.0.0.1282
    This is not for a server license, but a single user license. Directions were sent, but it appears to be for a server license. No one will talk to us and when emails are sent, no one answers them. We have had the softward for a month, with no key. Is there a person who can help us with this?

    Hi Darrell,
    Please contact the CIC team in America at 1866 8907686 or write to them at support.bosapamerica@ sap.com(Please remove the space).You can also request for a  license key at support.bosapamerica@ sap.com(Please remove the space).
    Hope this helps.

  • Do I need to install crystal reports developer edition?

    Hi,
       I tried to open a CR 8.5 reports in vs 2005 and it opened up fine. But when I try to preview the report it comes up with the error
    Failed to load Database information
    Details:The Database DLL 'crdb_fielddef.dll' could not be found.
    We have used Active Data drivers and Field definitions using ttx files in 8.5. We used the 8.5 developer edition. Will I be able to use the crystal reports for .net with vs 2005 without installing the new version of crystal reports or Do I need to install the developer edition to overcome this? I used the 10.2 version with the VS2005.
    Thanks,
    SS

    VS 2005 does not ship with crdb_fielddef.dll, which is the lib used with ttx reports.  You won't be able to preview off of a ttx file, or create a new Crystal Report off of a ttx file, using CR.NET shipped with VS 2005.
    If you require those functionalities, CR XI Release 2 would be an possible option.
    Sincerely,

  • Help needed  while exporting crystal reports to HTML file format using java

    Help needed  while exporting crystal reports to HTML file format using java api(not using crystalviewer).i want to download the
    html file of the report
    thanks

    the ReportExportFormat class does not have HTML format, it has got to be XML. Export to HTML is available from CR Designer only.

  • Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

    Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c.  I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report.  I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
    Thanks,
    NBGHealth

    Hello,
    I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
    Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
    Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
    Thank you

  • Turn Off BOXIR2 InfoView New Crystal Reports Document

    How do you turn off the option of creating a new Crystal Reports document in InfoView?
    We are only using the Web Intelligence functionality at this time in InfoView and the 'Crystal Report' option in the 'New' menu is causing confusion and curiosity and we want to be able to turn it off.
    Any suggestions or documentation I can reference?
    Thanks,
    John Ward
    Cleveland Clinic

    Hi John,
    The below solution will not turn off the Crystal Report creation option from New tab in InfoView but it will not show the any option related to creation of Crystal Report. This will ensure that user can not create any crystal report from Infoview leading to step away the confusion and curiosity about it.
    You can specify the Crystal Reports Explorer features that are available to each user.
    Please try out the following.
    1) Log on to CMC as as Administrator.
    2) Go to BusinessObjects Eneterprise Applications; then click Crystal Report Explorer.
    By default, each user is granted full access to all the available features. You can set the availability of each feature for specific users, or for groups.
    3) So accordingly select Manage group or Manage Users Tab; and select the user or group whose options you want top modify.
        3.1) If you want to set a user's access rights to be the same as for each group to which the user belongs, select Use Group Rights
       3.2)If you want to set specific access rights for the user, ensure that you clear Use Group Rights check box, then select or clear features from the hierarchy of available options.
    If users belong to more than one group, they will receive the combined access rights for all the groups to which they belong.

  • Crystal Reports Server licensing

    My question concerns Crystal Reports Server licensing.
    There is a limit of 20/100 licenses per server and 1 server per deployment. What should I do to implement solution that requires more than that? What does "deployment" mean in terms of licensing?
    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post a question like that.
    Regards,
    Stanislav

    You would need to purchase Business Objects Enterprise if you need a scalable solution as far as I know.
    You will need to talk to a sales person for a more definitive answer.

  • Crystal Reports IX license

    Will the Crystal Reports Basic license that is supplied with SAP B1 work with Crystal Reports XI?

    Hi Bill,
    honestly i dont know !
    It is an OEM version so i would guess no.
    The best would be to download the CR Trial version and install it with your supplied key. Than you will see if it works.
    Regards

  • Need to install Crystal Reports on a new PC and off of old Legacy PC

    What does a Crystal Reports Cr2011 single install user do to move the licensed install onto another PC?

    Short answer...you can't.
    Contact me via my website (www.theindesignguy.com/contact.shtml) and I may be able to help you. For you and the lurkers who will undoubtedly try to contact me....While I may be able to help, I will expect to have my expenses covered. If you're looking for a freebie or a pirated copy you'll have to wait til someone else comes along.
    In short, I can supply backup media. no serial number, no support. Nothing different than you'd get had you made the backup yourself.

  • Database fields empty after creating a new (Crystal) Report in MSY

    Hello,
    I have some issues to use Crystal Reports in Mobile Sales Maintenance (MSY). The situation is as follows
    My example is based on this standard report, which is working
    Report Name: BPartnerActivities
    Reporting Tool: Crystal Reports
    Category: Standard reports
    Subcategory: Lists
    Report Type: Report
    Data Source: Business Content provider
    Business Content Provider: BPActivities
    My requirement is to build a new report, which is based on the standard "BPartnerActivities" Report. If I use the "copy" functionality, I get an working Copy of the standard report. However, I need to modify the Business Content Provider, but I do not want to make the modifications on the standard content provider "BPActivities".
    I am now forced to used the "copy" functionality to create a copy from "BPActivities" for my own Content Provider "My BPActivities copy", which I want to use in a new report.
    Issue:
    I cannot modify the defined Business Content Provider after using the "copy" functionality and hence forced to create a new report from scratch to be able to set a different Content Provider.
    I create my own report "MyBPartnerActivities" based on the standard report "BPartnerActivities" using the same settings and assign my new business content provider.
    If I use the "Design Report" or "Modify Report" button, the Crystal Report designer pops up. Now the problem, the Crystal Report designer does not offer me any data below "Database fields".
    In the standard report, the "Database fields" has a child element "BOACTIVITY-ttx" with several field options. My own created report from sratch does now have anything?!
    Why my report does not offer my any data or is there anything additional to do?
    Another Test
    I tried to create another report using the standard content provider "BPActivities", but I have still the same issue.
    In addition I recongized that the "browse data" fuctionality does not work on the fields in the standard report. The path to the database file does not exist. It starts with "C:\WINNT\...", but my system has "C:\WINDOWS\...". But the executed report is able to retriev the data?!
    Unfortunately was not able to find any proper documentation, but I would really appreciate any help.
    Regards,
    Andreas

    Update
    It looks like that the *.ttx file is not uploaded/create to/on the MSY system. The system shows the file in the Crystal Report Designer, but there is no file on the file system. The confusing thing is, that any standard report is still working and does not really complain about a missing ttx file. I think the content of the ttx file is somehow embeded to the report.
    Does someone know how the system should behave? Should a ttx file be automatically created & assigned to any new report or do I have to create the file by my own every time?
    Cheers,
    Andreas

  • Do I need to uninstall Crystal Reports Server 2008?

    Hello,
    We recently installed Crystal Reports Server 2008 and began migrating reports off the CR Enterprise 9 platform and things were going pretty well.
    One of our other locations began moving over their reports that are ran against an Oracle database and cannot get passed a connectivity issue. We found the following:
    Oracle connectivity issues
    If you are installing Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 on a 64-bit Windows
    platform, Oracle database connectivity issues may occur. If Crystal Reports
    Server 2008 V1 is installed to a location that contains brackets in the folder
    path, for example, C:\Program Files (x86)\, it will be unable to connect
    to an Oracle database. Certain Oracle database clients such as version
    10.2.0.2 or 10.1.0.2, may not function properly with any application that
    has brackets in its folder path. When installing Crystal Reports Server 2008
    V1, select an installation path that does not contain brackets, such as
    C:\Program Files x86\ or contact Oracle support for an updated database
    client.
    We of course have everything installed in the default (x86) folder. My question is, is there a way to move the installation, or do I need to uninstall/re-install? If I need to re-install, is there a way to back-up and reload all of my existing jobs?

    Hello,
    CR must have the Oracle client installed. Unless you use a Wired Driver, which has the client engine built in, CR requires a client to be installed. It never has worked without the client installed.
    Also, I've found that if you have more than one Oracle client installed it causes problems. Make sure the first one in the PATH statement points to the latest version of the client.
    And yes you are correct, ODBC is a layer on top of the native client so it will be slower obviously because it has to go through one more layer of dll's to get to the server.
    Thanks again

  • Need help in crystal reports...

    Hi developers,
    I've downloaded crystal report plugin for eclipse.
    Now I want to show report on JSP file with that control.
    I got how to show it with .rpt file (which contains all data within rpt).
    but I 've rpt file with structure only.... No data included...
    I want to pass data to that rpt file dynamically...
    How can I do that?
    Thanx in advanced...

    Within the Business Objects Portal, go to the Support link (top left), and then the Business Objects Downloads. 
    From the drop downs choose Crystal Reports, then XI R2, then Samples.  On the second page is CR XI R2 JRC Web Sample apps.  This gives you most of the standard samples used most often by people developing with the JRC.
    There is a sample that shows how to add a datasource at runtime to a report.

  • Cannot see data in infotype when creating new Crystal Report

    Dear Experts,
    I have installed SAP Crystal Report 2011 trial version. After many weeks of trying to install CR2011 and making it work, i finally able to connect to SAP R/3 (ECC5.0).
    The problem is after choosing the table (eg. PA0002) and selecting field "employee number", "name", "start date", "end date" and other fields and selecting preview, the report only show "employee number", "start date" and "end date".
    The rest of the fields in PA0002 is showing BLANKS. I check in backend R/3 and the data is there.
    I also tried choosing "Mandt", the field is also showing blank in report preview.
    My basis team has done the following:
    1. Performing ABAP imports
    2. Grant authorisation for crystal report connection
    But still the fields above is not showing.
    Any clue?
    Thank in advance,
    Zul

    HI Zul,
    Its clearly the problem with the version of crystal you are using
    you have mentioned that you are using crystal 2011 and the ECC is SAP R/3 5.0
    Because crystal 2011 is only compatible with latest ECC client like 6.0 and above ...
    Solution are :-
    1.) you can upgrade the connectivity driver with the ECC
    or
    2.) you can use 2008 crystal report tool to connect the table , so can find the missing feilds
    Please try this and let me know you are able to fix this
    Thank you
    R.Arun
