Drill Down in crystal report

Dear Members,
I have designed a report in which there are 3 groups namely Customer Name,Invoice No and Items.
I need to display the report in a way that.
If i drill down say in customer Name it should list all the customer Name along with invoice No.
If i drill down further for a customer say solns1 it should list the invoices for that customer,
If i now drill down say invoice No then item details should be displayed .
I want all of these to display in a same page.Is this possible?
Any suggestions would be of great help.
Customer Name say Solns1,Solns2,Solns3
      + Solns1
         +InvoiceNo
            +Items
       + Solns2
            +InvoiceNo
                +Items
       + Solns3
Thanks And Regards,
Venkatesh.R

One of the 3rd-party Crystal Report viewers listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html provides that functionality (but it requires you add some formulas to the report to enable that behavior).
You can see a video demonstration at: [In-Place Drill Down|http://www.milletsoftware.com/Download/DLV_InPlace_DrillDown.wmv]

Drill Down in Crystal Reports

Gurus,
I am trying to add drill down to my Crystal Report, I know this can be achieved by using Hyperlink but the button for drill down is disabled. How can I enable this achieve the drill down function. Please find attach file for your convince.
Faisal Baloch

Hi Faisal........
Please check the below explanation.......
The Report Part Drilldown option
The Report Part Drilldown option lets you define a hyperlink so that the Report Part Viewer can emulate the drill-down functionality of Crystal Reports. The Report Part Viewer displays only destination objects; therefore, to make drill down work, you need to define a navigation path from a home object to one or more destination objects. When you have multiple destination objects, they must all reside in the same report section.
The Report Part Drilldown option does not affect the DHTML page viewers since the option emulates the default Crystal Reports behavior for drill down (which the page viewers already support). Page viewers, however, do not limit which objects are displayed—they always show all report objects.
Note: Use the Report Part Drilldown option only to navigate between objects in the same report.
Because the Report Part Viewer shows only destination objects, you must define Initial Report Part Settings (that is, a default home object) for a report before your Report Part Drilldown hyperlinks can work. A report's Initial Report Part Settings define the object that appears first in the Report Part Viewer. Think of this object as the place you'll begin your path of drill-down hyperlinks from.
To define Initial Report Part Settings
Open the report whose default home object you want to define.
Right-click the object you want to set as the default home object and select Copy from its shortcut menu.
On the File menu, click Report Options.
In the Initial Report Part Settings area of the Report Options dialog box, click Paste Link.
The program pastes the name and data context of the report object you selected as your home object into the appropriate fields.
Tip: For more information about data contexts, see Data context formats.
Include another object from the same section of the report by entering a semi-colon (;) and typing the name of the object.
Click OK.
To create a Report Part Drilldown hyperlink
Note: Before you begin this procedure, be sure to read Setting up navigation to acquaint yourself with the limitations of creating this type of hyperlink.
Open a report and select the intended destination object; then click the Format button on the Expert Tools toolbar.
Tip: You can also do this by selecting Format Field from the Format menu.
In the Format Editor, click the Hyperlink tab.
In the DHTML Viewer Only area, select Report Part Drilldown.
The "Hyperlink information" area changes to show the fields available for this type of hyperlink.
The Available Fields area shows only the sections and report objects you can select for drill down. In general, these objects include field objects, charts, maps, bitmaps, cross-tabs, and text objects contained in the next section down (that is, for example, objects in group two when the object you selected is in group one).
Note: The Available Fields area does not show suppressed report objects.
In the Available Fields area, select the section or report object(s) you want to use as your drill down destination.
Tip: Use the Report Explorer to quickly identify the default names assigned to each of your report objects. To open the Report Explorer, click its button on the Standard toolbar.
You can add all the objects in a section by selecting the section node. If you expand the section node, you can select one or more of the objects that it contains.
Use the arrow buttons to move the selected section or object(s) to the Fields to Display area.
For ease of identification, the program creates a section node in the Fields to Display area. This node contains the objects that you selected in the Available Fields area.
If you want to add another object to the Fields to Display area, select it in the Available Fields list and drag it into position.
Note:
The position an object has in the Fields to Display area determines how it appears in the Report Part Viewer; top to bottom in the Fields to Display area equates to left to right in the viewer. Use the arrows above the Fields to Display area to change the order of objects. (Note that a programmer can alter this default behavior through the PreserveLayout property of the Report Part Viewer.)
The Fields to Display area can contain only one section at a time. If you try to add a second section or an object from a second section, it replaces any existing section in the Fields to Display area.
Click OK.
You have established a hyperlink from your report's home object to a destination object or objects. In the Report Part Viewer, you will see the home object first, and when you click it for drill down, you will see the destination object(s).

Rahul

How to setup the drill down on union report

Hi,
I'm setting the union report.
I want to set the drill down to another report.
But I can't setup it.
Would you please tell me how to setup.
Thank you.

Hi Hemlatha
In Crystal Reports, to prevent the ability to drill down into a subreport when published on the Web, add a text object that is filled with blank spaces, created by pressing the 'Space Bar' and 'Enter' for line returns, to eclipse the subreport.
This workaround is applicable only to subreports that does not grow in size. For example, subreports that display only a chart or graph.
Steps to Add a Text Object over a Subreport
1. In the Crystal Reports Designer of the main report, insert a text object over the subreport.
2. Resize the text object to be the same size or a little larger than the subreport object on the main report.
3. Fill the text object with blank spaces created by pressing the 'Space Bar' and 'Enter'. This is necessary because resizing a text object without
the blank spaces will not maintain its size when it has been published on the Web.
====================
NOTE:
You can format the text object with a hyperlink to another report, another file or a URL.
====================
Now, when the Crystal report is previewed on the Web, the text object that fully eclipses the subreport will prevent the ability to drill down into it.

Girish

Drill-down lost in Report Builder

Ever since the CFMX7.02 upgrade, we have lost the ability to
drill-down on the Report Builder reports which previously had
drill-down capability. I am referring to summary lines which
contained a link to the detail. Has anyone experienced this and is
there a fix for it?

Do you choose PDF instead of flash paper as the output
format? By some reason, the drill-down function does not work in
flash paper format.
Good luck,
Daniel

Basically want I need is a tree level hierarchy......Could any one plz help me what all changes I need to make in order to get a detailed report.
Thanks

Hi,
Try to create a Class e.g Time in universe and objects to that class as year, quarter,month as
Year Object -> data type -> D/N
select To_date('sysdate','YYYY) as year from dual
Month object-> data type -> D/N
select to_date)'sysdate','MM') as month from dual;
Quarter -> data type -> D/N
case when @select(Time/Month) in (1,2,3) then q1
         when @select(Time/Month) in (4,5,6) then q2
          when @select(Time/Month) in (7,8,9) then q4
           when @select(Time/Month) in (10,11,12) then q4
endcase
Then create a hierarch in tools -> hiearchy ->custom hierarchy and add the above class there then in any report (Deski/WebI)
you will get the above hierarchy and use it according to your requirement.
Cheers,
Suresh Aluri.

Error Message appears when drilling down from a report.

Hi,
I am using CR XI R2.
I have an rpt file that displays a chart from a sub report.
I tested it on the CR designer and report viewer - works ok.
When I display this report in my .Net application, I get an error message when drilling down from this chart : "The Report Application Server failed"
When looking at the log files I see this error message:
4 19 13:11:14.770 5336 5564 (\servers\ras\dtsagent\reporthandler.cpp:11622): CReportHandler::buildReportViewerError: CSResultException thrown. ErrorSrc:"CRPE" FileName:"\servers\ras\dtsagent\reporthandler.cpp" LineNum:11618 ErrorCode:997 ErrorMsg:"" DetailedErrorMsg:""
This is a Viewer error - but when drilling down from the Report Viewer I don't get this exception.
Does anyone know what this mean?

Too strange and my require a phone support case;
http://store.businessobjects.com/store/bobjamer/DisplayProductByTypePage&parentCategoryID=&categoryID=11522300
Three ideas:
1) Install CR designer on one of the boxes where this does not work and try to run the report there
2) Add a line to your code and save out the report just after your database logon once ( .saveAs). try to run this report in the CR designer.
3) Use the [modules|https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006252802008E/modules.zip] utility to compare the runtime - both CR and db client between computers that work and those that do not.

Issue to drill down from a report

Hi,
Our requirement is we need to show three different graphs in a single report representing different data, from that we need to drill down to a new different report ;
Two approaches we tried with crystal report are;
1. We put three graphs and the table in the single report and tried to implement drill down for each graph. We could group data on the basis of first pie chart data and could drill down. But while we tried to group data for second bar chart grouping is happening only as a sub group of first group. Ie, we cannot group data independently for different charts.
2. In the second approach we created different 3 sub reports and added in to a main report. But Crystal report is not supporting sub report to a sub report. Ie, we cannot go to drill down report.
It would be a great help, if you could suggest some solution.
Thanks,
Jomy

Hi,
As per my understanding, you have one report say Parent1 (SA1) and one Report say Child1 (SA2), now you want to pass some values from parent1 to child1.
1> Create 1 interim report from parent1.
2> In your Child report in filter part use result based on another analysis.
Please let me know if it resolves yourissues.
Thanks

How to drill down from summary report to detail report using RRI?

Dear all:
A problem about RRI. Please help me!
1.I create a BEx query 'Q1' to show summary data.
2.I create a BEx query 'Q2' to show detail data.
3.In Q1, all the products are shown each row.
       The 1st coulmn is 'Balance in the begin', it shows how many customer claim cases are opened before this week.
       The 2nd coulmn is 'New', it shows how many customer claim cases are initalized in this week.
       The 3rd coulmn is 'Close', it shows how many customer claim cases are closed in this week.
       The 4th coulmn is 'Balance', it shows how many customer claim cases are still opened now. And this column is calculated by this fomula as follow:
         'Balance in the begin' + 'New' - 'Close'
   4.In Q2, it lists each customer claim case. Include ClaimNo, Sold-To Party, ProductNo...
   5. I set Q1 as sender, Q2 as receiver.
   6. If I focus on the value of 'New' or 'Close' and then go to 'Q2', the correspond detail calim information in 'Q2'. But it is fail if I focus on the value 'Balance'.
   Why?
Thanks,
Jolin

I don't know if you can use the hyperlink to call a subreport but the following has worked for me in Crystal 10:
1. In your main report create a group on the field you want to pass to the subreport.
2. In the Group Footer, use the "Insert Section below" menu command so that you have a Group Footer 1a and a Group Footer 1b.
3. Put your table fields in the Group Footer 1b section (this would be similar to your Details data).
4. Put the sub report in the Group Footer 1a section. Set up the links to the subreport from a table field in your main report.
5. Right-click on the sub-report, select "Format Sub-report". Click on the "x-2" button to the right of the Suppress option and enter "DrillDownGroupLevel = 0" in the "Formula Workshop-Formula Format Editor-Suppress" window and save it.
When you double-click on your data field (i.e. the field in Group footer 1b) it should drill-down and run your subreport.

Thanks in advance
-Ganesh

Hi Jamie,
Went over the blog, was informative..........but i guess my scenario is different
Its a query driven Crystal report, in which i will have to drill down/up by org structure
i have placed a hyperlink on top of a specific column,which will call the same report again and again on clicking the column value.........this will go till the last level..........
back button in browser will not be enabled.........
So i have added a text to the left top of the report
the text will have a different hyperlink, which will call the same report for parent-Key instead of Current-key
not sure whether this is a right way, but this is what i could able to think in a short notice.....
Please suggest
Thanks,
Ganesh Jegannathan
