Drill down tab won't print in CR10 viewer

We are developing in CR 10 and our ERP system uses the CR 10 viewer to display reports to our users.
I have several reports that display a summary on the main page with the option to drill down for more details. The data is grouped, and the detail section is hidden unless the user drills down.
When our users try to print the data on the drill down tab in the viewer, the Preview tab prints instead. I have verified that the drill down tab is active at the time of printing, and still no luck. The weird part is that I can open the report up in the designer software, and it prints correctly. As a workaround, we are having the users export the data to Excel and print from there, but we have some executives who are not quite computer literate and do not like going through all these steps to print something out. So my questions are:
1) Is my report improperly designed to allow this functionality?
2) I have the option to upgrade to CR XI. Would that fix the problem?
3) Are there other design choices I should consider that would provide similar functionalty?

I don't have the answer to your problem but I can tell you what happens from our application.
If I drill down on a report using the crystal viewer, whilst viewing the drilldown report I have 3 possible print options.
1) File > Print ( this prints the main report )
2) A print icon we have added to our application (also prints the main report).
3) A print icon on the viewer itself ( this prints the drilldown report)
So my only question/suggestion is can you also see a print icon on the viewer header itself. If not you may need to make some alteration in the code to display this if it is a property you can change.
This isn't something I get involved in, but someone else reading this may know.
Good luck

Modify title of drill down tabs

Hi All,
Just a quick questions regarding the titles embedded in the drill down tabs. Is it possible to modify the titles? As an example, if I drill down to a level that is grouped by month, I would like the drill down tab to display "Month".
Thank you in advance.

There is a solution. You have to use a customized group name field
Go to Reports->Group Expert.
Select the Options button for the group.
Click on the Options tab
Select the checkbox Customize Group Name Field
Select the radio button Use A Formula As Group Name
Click on the fomula button
Enter whatever you want the tab name to be, as a string. You can customize the tab to say, for instance, Order No. - 5630 by entering "Order No - " + CStr() in the formula editor

Drill Down Report issues in VS 2010, CR viewer 12

We are using VS 2010, Crystal Reports 12 with Crystal Viewer 12 control called from a C# programmed page frame. Several Drill Down reports are developed with CR 12 service pack 1 and then deployed onto the server.
These Drill Down reports work great within the viewer. But Two critical issues have been discovered,
1.     With the drop down report, the next /last page buttons work on the main page, but it doesnu2019t work on any of the drill drop sections.
2.     The print / export functions work on the main page. Using the print / export functions from the Drilled down pages reverts back to the main page, not the drill down page that is being viewed.
Has anyone else seen these issues and know of a fix. Wondering if it might be something in the viewer settings within the .net or the version of viewer ?
I have viewed the CR .Net API Reference but probably due to lack of .net knowledge, seems overwhelming to me.
Thanks

Hello,
Hope you can use this code to export report in pdf with the drill down options/nodes.
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument rd = new CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument();
   /// Calling a sample report named Employee Sales.rpt with parameter
   rd.Load(Application.StartupPath + \\..\\..\\Employee Sales.rpt);
   rd.SetParameterValue("Login Name","Robert King");
   ISCDReportClientDocument rcd = rd.ReportClientDocument;
   ISCRPDFExportFormatOptions exportFormat = new PDFExportFormatOptionsClass();
   exportFormat.CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree = true;
   //Create an array of bytes of the report.
   PrintOutputController rasPrintOutputController;
   rasPrintOutputController = rcd.PrintOutputController;
   // Define the export format as PDF, and apply the PDF export options
   CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ExportOptions expOpts = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.ExportOptionsClass();
   expOpts.ExportFormatType = CrReportExportFormatEnum.crReportExportFormatPDF;
   expOpts.FormatOptions = exportFormat;
   // Use the PrintOutputController class to export the report based on the defined export options.
   ByteArray tempByteArray = rcd.PrintOutputController.ExportEx(expOpts);
   Byte[] byteStreamOutput = tempByteArray.ByteArray;
   // Create a new file(MyExportedReport) with the specified path, name, and file extension.
   FileStream fs = new FileStream("C:\\Windows\\Temp\\MyExportedReport.pdf", FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite);
   // Stream the bytes from the exported report to the newly created file and close the file stream.
   int maxSize = byteStreamOutput.Length;
   fs.Write(byteStreamOutput, 0, maxSize);
   fs.Close();
   MessageBox.Show("Export is done in C:\\Windows\\Temp location");
Thanks.

Drill down to a report with a select view

I have a report with a select view on a column... In this column I have coded a navigation to another report that has some details and also has a select view on the same column.
a) The only way to make this work is in the construction, using the view edit screen, the select view, select the option, save it... and then in the criteria, code the navigation.
This had to be done to every option.
b) Since the target report has also a select, whenever you navigate from the original report, the detail report is displayed "as it were", in respect to the select column... The target report is filtered by this column (I am using "is prompted") It would be nice if besides the filtering the select could show the select that comes from the original report... It is not working like this... The user has to select again (column selector) to see it like the original one...
Sorry, it is a bit confusing...but I´d appreciate any help.

I dont think about drill down, but try with navigation using common columns. in this way we can have both side navigations summary-> detail and detail->summary.

*Can I pass default Selection dynamically for Drill Down Charts*

Hi
I am having Charts with Drill Down tab and I am currently having to select a value for the Default Selection Combo Box while saving the chart.
I want to be able to update this default selection depending upn data coming from the XML / Webservice. Is there a way to update the Default Selection dynamically ?
Please let me know if anyone has come across this.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Drill Down > Default Selection > Series/Item may not be filled dynamically. They must be selected manually.
Good Luck.

Stacked Column Chart drill down

I have a stacked column chart. Data is dynamic. Sometimes one column will have 0 as value.
I need to do a drill down on the ones which has value. In order to do a drill down everytime, I don't want my drill down to be tied to a specific serie...
How can I do that?
Thanks,
Wen

Hi Wen:
Let me do a quick demo to you so you can learn how drill down for stacked column chart works
1. Create a new stacked column chart.
2. Choose data binding "By Range" and "Data In Columns" binds to range "A1~C2", which has range data as following:
a, 1, 2
b, 3, 4
3. After finishing step 2, there will be two series created (Series 1, and Series 2)
4. Open drill down tab and check "Enable Drill Down".
5. Choose "Insert Type" as "Row".
6. Click "Series 1".
7. Bind "Source Data" to range "D1~E2" which contains value as following:
11,12
13,14
(these are the drill down value you want to insert)
8. Bind "Destination" to "D3~D4" (empty cells)
9. Create another component "Grid" under "Other" folder.
10. Bind grid data to "D3~D4" to present the drill down data.
11. Preview the xlf file, can click values in series 1, you will see the drill down result. (Grid will be refreshed with new drill down data)
Hope the demo above can help you in your practice, also you can refer to help documents for more information. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Thanks!

BPC drill down problem - computer specific

I recently developed several drill down reports in BPC v 7.0ms that I tested extensively and work great. However, I have one user that when they open the report and attempt to double click on the heirarchy item to drill down further into the detail, it only reveals the forumula on that line (evdes) and doesn't propmt the drill down expansions. I've also noticed that several templates that she opens don't automatically refresh like they should and they work properly for everyone else. I tried logging into her computer with my user ID and still get the same results so I know it isn't a security issue in BPC. She is using Excel 2007 and Windows XP. Does anyone know of a setting in her system that would be preventing these expansions from happening the way they should? I'm assuming its a setting somewhere either in her operating system or excel - just not familiar enough with those to know what to change or where to look. I have checked her Macros settings and they are set to low and the box to allow VB is checked. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Lynette

FGI0 "New GL" Receivables by Profit center- Drill down/Call-Up report

Dear all,
I am using S_AC0_52000887 to view receivables by profit center as we have activated New GL. FBL5N is not possible to see since we have multiple profit centers per customer and FAGLL03 which is a New GL report has no selection by customer on selection screen.
However, S_AC0_52000887 has limited information- I want to see the line items in the report. I use FGI0 and copy a new report using 0SAPRECIEV01 and want to drill down by line items to the FAGLL03 view. So i go to Extras menu > Report Assignment and assign to FAGL_ACCOUNT_ITEMS_GL program. However, the report parameters are not being passed in.
Can anyone assist how to pass the parameters in the main report, to the call-up report?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Huimin

If you are trying to view such a report through transaction code FBL1N, then I would suggest you follow the solution described in this thread below:
Re: Add field Net Due Date at the selection field in FBL1N t.code
Also to view profit center wise, use the dynamic selections in FBL1N to select profit center.

Charts won't appear in CR Viewer?

Hello,
Currently trying to use the DHTML viewer to view a report with a chart, a line graph specifically. The report is showing up blank, although text from the report will show up correctly. The behavior is actually similar to loading up a blank chart, white in FireFox / IE8, grey in IE6.
The report was made in Crystal Reports 2008, I'm using the new service pack for Crystal Reports For Eclipse, and it's being served from Tomcat 6. Looking through the logs, I haven't found any errors, although I'm only checking the logs in (Tomcat Dir)\logs. The JSP was generated using the wizard in Eclipse, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with how the viewer is being invoked.
The report uses the results from a command datasource to fill the line graph, and there are parameters in the command. These are not showing up in the DHTML viewer either. It's almost like a blank report was entered.
Are there some libraries I need to include to get the chart to appear? I'm new to all of this so please let me know any extra information I can provide, or if my terminology is off and I need to explain something.
Thank you,
John
Edited by: John_AM on May 18, 2009 2:44 PM - Added additional details

You need to choose the right viewer for specific requirement. e.g,
Following are the types of the viewers with features.
View a basic report from a web page. -
> DHTML report page viewer
View a report from a web page and search for a text string. -
> DHTML report page viewer
View a report from a web page and drill down for further detail.----
> DHTML report page viewer*
View a chart from a web page and drill down for further detail.----
> report parts viewer
Prompt users for authentication information or parameters and pass the information to the report viewer. -
> DHTML report page viewer or report parts viewer
Pass a selection formula or report source to the viewer.----
> DHTML report page viewer or report parts viewer
View a part of a report (such as a field) on a mobile device and drill-down for further detail.----
> report parts viewer
View a chart in Microsoft Office XP and refresh the chart via a smart tag.----
> report parts viewer*
So all these features can be enabled or disabled through the SDK.
When you use report parts viewer with crystal reports Java, the report must have report parts and navigation information defined, Crystal Reports Java does not support defininf report parts programmatically.

Tej

Printing Supressed (Drill Down OK) Data

Post Author: JHemauer
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
I have a report posted on CR.com that has a bar graph with suppressed sections (drill down ok). The posted report is pretty to look at, and handy to drill down into the detail, but how can I set it up so that when my users want to print the report, the printed version shows all detail?
I'm a little new, and self taught so any help would be apprecdiated . . .
Jim Hemauer

You cannot get the drilldown data in same page. When you drilldown it will be opened in a separate tab, this is by design.
