Dynamic Cascading Parameters - cannot select/enter parameter value

I am rather new working with Crystal Reports and am having problems with Dynamic Cascading Parameters.
I am using CR 2008 SP2, Version 12.2.0.290. Data is from SQL server.
I have a report to print labels for parts in an order. I want to be able to enter the ShipTo ID then the contract number. From there I would like a list of the parts on the contract and be able to select multiple parts to print labels for.
I right clicked on Parameter Fields and chose New. I named it ShipToContractPartNo, Type String, List of Values=Dynamic.
I added the values as follows:
ShipToID - Editable, Allow Multiple=False, Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
...ContractNo - Allow Multiple=False, Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
... ...CustPartNo - Allow Multiple=True Allow Discrete=True (cannot be changed), Allow Range=False
I added the Customer Part parameter to the label.
When I test the label the parameter Enter Values window looks good but the drop down for Enter ShipToID does not have any ShipTo ID's to choose from and I cannot enter a value, therefore I cannot continue. I also do not have a Cancel button and always have to end through Task Manager but that's probably a different, unrelated issue.
I have tried this with and without entering Select Expert records.
Could someone please tell me if I have missed a step or if there is a known issue? I searched this site, I looked in CR Help, I referred to the book I have and I googled but have not found this speciic issue.
Thanks in advance for your assistance. Let me know if additional information is necessary.

OK. I have rejoined/relinked all my tablesas follows (with abbreviated names for ease of reading). The actual SQL is at the end.
..Job_Hdr JOINED to Job_Shipto
.....Job_Shipto JOINED to Job_Line
........Job_Line JOINED to Job_Bin
............Job_Line JOINED to Inv_Mast
When I create a Dynamic Cascading Parameter prompt on just ContractNo (parent - from table Job_Hdr) and ShipTo (child - from table Job_ShipTo) then it gives me list of Contracts to select from and then a list of ShipTo's for that Contract to select from. I place them in the Report Header. I do not add them to the Select Expert. This works great.
Now I need to be able to select the parts necessary from the Contract/ShipTo. When I try to create a Dynamic Cascading Parameter with ContractNo and ShipTo (set up the same as above) and add in ContractPartNumber (from table Job_Bin) to the parameter then my ContractNo and ShipTo parameters no longer work. It gives me only 1 contract number to choose from, which isn't the one I want.
I have tried so many different things and I cannot get the parameters to work when I try to add PartNo into the parameters.
Any suggestions now?

How to disable "Enter Parameter Values" for optional paramters?

I'm having issues getting the Crystal Reports .NET Viewer to suppress the "Enter Parameter Values" dialog for optional parameters. I have templates created using Crystal Reports 2008 and am linking against the CR for VS 2010 runtime.
Within the report template the optional paramter has "Optional Prompt" set to "True". This particular parameter also allows multiple values and is used in record selection. Within the record selection it is using HasValue().
It seems the parameter is set up properly as I have other parameters that are set within the code that are not prompted for. If I pass in the optional parameter through the code the "Enter Paramater Values" dialog also does not appear and the report is generated correctly. All of the parameters are set using ParameterFields and they are set before the ReportSource is set.
Looking through the .NET API documentation it seems like the CrystalReportViewer should have an "EnableParameterPrompt" property that would do what I want however it doesn't seem to be a valid parameter as I get compile errors when I try to use it... Not sure if it matters or not but I am using managed C++ and our application is built using Visual Studio 2005. Could that maybe have something to do with it?
Thanks,
-Ben

OK, I'm going to answer my own question as with a little more digging I was able to find out that I needed to set some stuff on the report document to specify that there are no values. Still not sure why "EnableParameterPrompt" is not valid for me though as it seems like that would work as well. At any rate here is what I needed to do:
ReportDocument->ParameterFields[<Optional Parameter Name>]->CurrentValues->Clear();
ReportDocument->ParameterFields[<Optional Parameter Name>]->CurrentValues->IsNoValue = true;

How to suppress "enter parameter values" screen in crystal reports for Visu

Hi,
    I am passing parameters to the report through program. But still the "Enter Parameter Values" Dialog is shown every time I run the application. Code used to pass parameters is given below:
                rptCBBookRpt objRptCBBook = new rptCBBookRpt();
                objRptCBBook.SetParameterValue("@Branch", strBranch);
                objRptCBBook.SetParameterValue("@CoName", mdlFinIF.objCommon.CoName);
                objRptCBBook.SetParameterValue("@Heading", strHeading);
                objRptCBBook.SetParameterValue("@UserInfo", mdlFinIF.objCommon.ReportInfo());
How can I suppress the "Enter Parameter Values" dialog. Please help.

Disabling the Enter Parameter Value dialog box

I'm developing Crystal Reports in a WPF application using CRVS2010
The issues I'm having are the following:
I am attempting to pass parameter values to a report. I have been able to set a several paramater values by using the following syntax:
ReportObject.SetParameterValue("ParameterName1", ParameterValue1);
ReportObject.SetParameterValue("ParameterName2", ParameterValue2);
ReportObject.SetParameterValue("ParameterName3", ParameterValue3);
ReportObject.SetParameterValue("ParameterName4", ParameterValue4);
Issue #1:
Each time I run the application sometimes the report will display with the report data and parameter values; Other times, just before the report displays, it will prompt me to "Enter Parameter Value".
How do I prevent this dialog box from displaying so that the programmed parameter values will display instead?
Issue #2:
When the Refresh button on the Viewer control menu is clicked a dialog box prompts ask if the new parameter values should be used or to use the old parameter values.
How do I prevent this dialog box from displaying and refresh the paramater values?
I know that there is a ReuseParameterWhenRefresh property that's part of the ViewCore class but I'm not sure how to use it to eleviate the issue I'm having on the refresh.
Any help that can be provided with this most urgent matter (on my part of course) would be most appreciated.

Multiple selection of parameter values (BIP 10.1.3.2)

Hi there,
I'm working with BI Publisher 10.1.3.2 and I'd like to use parameters allowing multiple selection. I've tried it with both data templates and SQL queries ... but I'm not getting it work ...
I've established a simple "Show me department name and id"-example according to my parameter selection (you can select multiple values e.g. Administration, Marketing, Sales ... and the "All"-option is activated as well), based on the HR/OE schema.
Here's just a quick note, where I tested the way the Publisher Engine copes with parameter selection in general
5.6.2
single selection => e.g. Administration
multiple selection => e.g. Administration,Marketing
All => *
10.1.3.2
single selection => e.g. Administration
multiple selection => e.g. 'Administration','Marketing'
All => null
So, in 10.1.3.2 there's been an improvement concerning single quotes - in the case of multiple selection only. I do not know why there are no single quotes for a single selection, but it seems like that's the way it is ...
Well, I've created a simple SQL query as follows:
CASE 1 *
select DEPARTMENT_ID as ID, DEPARTMENT_NAME as NAME
from DEPARTMENTS
where DEPARTMENT_NAME IN (:myParameter)
=> All does not work
=> Single Selection is working
=> Multiple Selection is working
sample output in the case of selecting "Marketing" (single selection):
<TESTINGIN>
<myParameter>Marketing</myParameter>
<LIST_DEPTS>
<DEPTS>
<_MYPARAMETER>Marketing</_MYPARAMETER>
<ID>20</ID>
<NAME>Marketing</NAME>
</DEPTS>
</LIST_DEPTS>
</TESTINGIN>
... and I've tried the same select statement using a data template instead, and then I got another result: both, All and Multiple Selection, do not work (I'm getting back an empty element)
sample (error) output in the case of selecting both "Marketing" and "Administration" (multiple selection):
<TESTINGIN>
<myParameter>'Administration','Marketing'</myParameter>
<LIST_DEPTS></LIST_DEPTS>
</TESTINGIN>
In order to cover the "All"-case ... I manipulated my select statement as follows and used it as SQL query:
CASE 2 *
select DEPARTMENT_ID as ID, DEPARTMENT_NAME as NAME
from DEPARTMENTS
where DEPARTMENT_NAME IN (nvl(:myParameter, DEPARTMENT_NAME))
=> All is working now
=> Singe selection is working
=> Multiple selection is not working any more (ORA-00909: Ungültige Anzahl von Argumenten / illegal amount of arguments)
... using the same select statement within a data template, Multiple Selection is still not working (empty element)
Last, I've tried another select statement, based on an entry of the xml publisher forum:
CASE 3 *
select DEPARTMENT_ID as ID, DEPARTMENT_NAME as NAME
from DEPARTMENTS
where DEPARTMENT_NAME IN (:myParameter) or :myParameter IS NULL
=> All is working
=> Singe selection is working
=> Multiple selection is not working (ORA-00920: Ungültiger relationaler Operator / illegal relational operator)
So, I couldn't find a way that all three possibilities are working ... and using data templates, multiple selection never worked. If I hardcoded the where clause in the data template,
e.g. where DEPARTMENT_NAME IN ('Administration','Marketing'), it worked fine (no matter, whether I place the sql statement within an CDATA section, or not).
Can anyone tell me, what I'm doing wrong here?
While testing my problem, I figured out that there's a difference of generated parameter output ... I just put the parameter in the select list, and depending on whether you use SQL query or data template, you'll get different results:
SQL statement
=> for each parameter value an own parameter
<_MYPARAMETER>Administration</_MYPARAMETER> in the case of single selection
<_MYPARAMETER8093>Administration</_MYPARAMETER8093>
<_MYPARAMETER8094>Marketing</_MYPARAMETER8094> in the case of multiple selection
data Template
=> list of parameter values
<_MYPARAMETER>Administration</_MYPARAMETER> in the case of single selection
<_MYPARAMETER>'Administration','Marketing'</_MYPARAMETER> in the case of multiple selection
Maybe that's the problem? I don't know, this difference how the Publisher Engine copes with parameters just attracted attention to me ...
Alright, I hope it was not too confusing. I would appreciate any help, since here @ the customer's site we need to use data templates inclduing multiple selection in order to establish a context for VPD.
The problems in summary:
- how to write a select statement to include all three possibilites of parameter selection (single selection, multiple selection, All option)
- multiple selection never worked using data templates
Can someone help me here?

hi,
i think you have to use lexical parameters and a package, like this:
<dataTemplate name="departments" dataSourceRef="hr@demo" defaultPackage="bip_departments">
<parameters>
<parameter name="p_location_id" include_in_output="false" datatype="float"/>
</parameters>
<dataTrigger name="beforeReport" source="bip_departments.beforeReportTrigger"/>
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q1">
<![CDATA[ select d.department_id, d.department_name, d.location_id
                  from departments d
                 &p_where_clause
            order by location_id, department_id]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="LOC" source="Q1">
<element name="location_id" value="location_id"/>
<group name="DEPT" source="Q1">
<element name="department_id" value="department_id"/>
<element name="department_name" value="department_name"/>
</group>
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
with package:
create or replace package bip_departments
as
p_location_id long;
p_where_clause long;
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean;
end bip_departments;
create or replace package body bip_departments
as
function beforereporttrigger
return boolean
is
l_return boolean := true;
begin
if (p_location_id is not null)
then
p_where_clause := 'where (d.location_id in (' || replace (p_location_id, '''') || '))';
else
p_where_clause := 'where 1=1';
end if;
return (l_return);
end beforereporttrigger;
end bip_departments;

Crystal Report Prompt For Enter Parameter Values

Hi,
I did a report with 2 subreports embeded in VS2005 using VB and it worked fine but when I ported the whole application to VS2008 the above problem occurs. Here are some codes:
    Private Sub btnPreview_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPreview.Click
        Dim viewer As New frmReportPreview
        Dim rpt As New ReportDocument
        Try
            rpt.Load("C:\Report\crptMain.rpt")
            rpt.SetParameterValue("Code", Me.cbxCode.Text)
            rpt.SetParameterValue("Code", Me.cbxCode.Text, "crptSubReport1.rpt")
            rpt.SetParameterValue("Code", Me.cbxCode.Text, "crptSubReport2.rpt")
            viewer.report = rpt
            viewer.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized
            viewer.ShowDialog()
        Catch crptEx As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.EngineException
            MessageBox.Show(crptEx.Message, "Crystal Report Errors...")
        Catch ex As Exception
            MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Crystal Report Errors...")
        End Try
    End Sub
Private Sub frmReportPreview_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
        Dim rpt As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        Try
            Me.CrystalReportViewer.ReportSource = m_report
            Me.CrystalReportViewer.RefreshReport()
        Catch ex As Exception
            MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error...")
        End Try
    End Sub

Subreport Parameters are contained within the Main Report's ParameterFieldDefinitions collection. Passing Subreport Parameter values directly to the Subreport will result in the values not being applied and the user being prompted at runtime to provide new values.

Can you please help me with this. Its strange that I do not have similar issue with other reports which prompt for parameter , However in this case the issue lies with show dialog box button in the parameter panel menu which throws an exception if the user clicks the show advanced dialog box button)

Thank you . I used the MSI listed. Sorry to bother, but couple of questions ., firstly I cleaned up my system to make sure that I do not have any crystal reports assembly in GAC.
Then I installed the msi per link suggested above and it did install crystal report 2008 sp3. After installing , I noticed that the gac contained 2 versions of assembly for CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine (Version - 12.0.1100.0 and File version 12.3.1101.684) and the other
CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine (Version 12.0.2000.0 and File version 12.3.2001.684).
I am little confused, why does it install 2 different version of assemblies.
Also my application needs reference to the crystal reports assembly and since after installing the MSI, it was registered with GAC, I had to copy the content of GAC to a different folder (temp folder )and referenced the dll from temp folder.
When I copied the contents of GAC, I could copy the Version 12.0.1100 only but not the other one. I want to use the version 12.0.2000.0 and see what happens, but how ?
FYI - I tested with version 12.0.1100.o and file version 12.3.1101.684, the issue still exists.
I hope you can help me
Thanks.

Dynamically defined GeoRaster theme using WMS parameter values

Hi everyone,
In addition to dynamically defining a GeoRaster theme using SQL (which is documented by Oracle), is it possible to somehow access the WMS values of parameters in the WMS query which is accessing the theme? For example, can I grab the BBOX values from the WMS REQUEST and use that in my dynamic SQL statement?
My goal for doing this is to select the most appropriate pyramid level of the raster imagery given the map scale of the WMS request.
My other question is when using a GeoRaster theme containing a SQL statement, will the MapViewer WMS engine still automatically select imagery from all and any relevant georaster image that has a portion within the BBOX of the query?
Cheers,
MH

A Georaster object can have pyramid levels, and in MapViewer you can define a pyramid level for a theme. If you define this parameter, then for any zoom level that you render, MapViewer will read the pixels for this pyramid level. Depending on the zoom level, you may be loading unecessary data due to the screen resolution. If you do not define the pyramid level, MapViewer will calculate the actual screen resolution given the query and device windows, and will load the pixels for the pyramid level that is closest to the actual screen resolution, resulting on a better performance.

How to select entered parameter for report?

I developed a report in SSRS 2008R2 with several parameters. But now when the use selects the Supervisor from this query, it automatically changes to a different supervisor!
Select Distinct
Null As [supervisor_id],
'-All-' As [supervisor_name],
0 as sort
UNION ALL
select distinct
supervisor_id,
staff_name as [supervisor_name],
1 as sort
from staff_view v WITH (NOLOCK)
where staff_id not in ('07BBA230-CA6E-402E-AEAF-FF1CB48AA41A','6394C3A3-5402-4578-BBF1-31FFCDD4EB90')
Order By sort, [supervisor_name]
In my report I have a SupervisorID parameter which uses supervisor_id as the value and supervisor_name as the label. (This is the Text datatype).
I also tried running this as a text query instead of store proc, but this exhibited the same behavior. I also broke down this view into the source tables with the same behavior:
select distinct
supervisor_id,
[supervisor_name] = evolv_cs.dbo.FormatName(people_rv.last_name,people_rv.first_name,people_rv.middle_name) +
Case When IsNull(staff_rv.end_date, '12/31/2100') < GetDate() Then
' (Ended: ' + Convert(Varchar(10), staff_rv.end_date,101) + ')'
Else '' End,
1 as sort
FROM
staff_rv with (nolock)
INNER JOIN people_rv with (nolock) ON staff_rv.people_id = people_rv.people_id
INNER JOIN agency_rv with (nolock) ON staff_rv.agency_id = agency_rv.agency_id
where supervisor_id is not null and
staff_id not in ('07BBA230-CA6E-402E-AEAF-FF1CB48AA41A','6394C3A3-5402-4578-BBF1-31FFCDD4EB90')
Order By sort, [supervisor_name]
I'm not sure what else to try?
Also, the code for FormatName is:
ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[FormatName](@last [nvarchar](4000), @first [nvarchar](4000), @middle [nvarchar](4000))RETURNS [nvarchar](100) WITH EXECUTE AS CALLERAS EXTERNAL NAME [EvolvSQLCLR].[UserDefinedFunctions].[FormatName]

Enter parameter values screen

Hi, I have used Crystal for several years and now trying the Visual Studio's 2010 version I have this problem: using a WIndows Forms App with the Crystal viewer when I generate a report that contains at least one parameter and run the app a screen with the parameter is asking me for the value but I have already set it in code, this is the code in VB. As you can see I have used several methods to pass parameters but I always got the parameters screen... please I need to know how to hide this screen !!
        Dim rptReporte As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
        rptReporte.Load("test.rpt")
        Dim myParameterFieldDefinitions As ParameterFieldDefinitions = rptReporte.DataDefinition.ParameterFields
        Dim myParameterFieldDefinition As ParameterFieldDefinition = myParameterFieldDefinitions("Empresa")
        Dim pvCol1 As New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValues
        Dim pdvEmpresa As New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue
        pdvEmpresa.Value = "Integrama"
        pvCol1.Add(pdvEmpresa)
        ' I have always use this with previous versions and worked fine
        'rptReporte.DataDefinition.ParameterFields("Empresa").ApplyCurrentValues(pvCol1)
        ' I have tried with this and does not work
        'rptReporte.SetParameterValue("Empresa", "Integrama")
        ' I have tried with this and does not work
        myParameterFieldDefinition.ApplyDefaultValues(pvCol1)
        myParameterFieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(pvCol1)
        rptReporte.ReportOptions.EnableSaveDataWithReport = False
        crwViewer.ReportSource = rptReporte

PE03 - Cannot directly enter return values

Hi all,
I have a simple feature, the first decision is based on field PERSK (employee sub group) with offset 0 length 1.
I wish to enter directly custom return values such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
But it is forcing me to pick return values from an F4 style pop up.
The problem with using the F4 pop up is currently only Employee sub groups 1* and 2* are configured.
Hence I cannot enter 3, 4 and 5, because 3, 4 5* employee sub groups are not yet configured in the system.
I've checked other existnig features (e.g. QUOMO) and they do allow my to directly key in custom return values in a pop up box, regardless of whether they exist in the system or not.
Any idea why I can do this is one feature and not another feature?
I need to key in directly my own values.
Thanks
Kevin

Problem solved (not really solved but i found the reason why its happening this way).
Each feature is making use of a different structure
It is called "Structure name for decision fields"
(PE03 -> Attributes -> Struct)
QUOMO uses structure PME87 which had no check table against its PERSK field (SE11)
My custom feature was using another structure which had a check table against its PERSK field (SE11)
After debugging PE03 I realize that if there is a check table, it will enforce a F4 style drop down when creating return values from a decision in the feature.
Thanks all.

Change UI configuration dynamically when ever user selects a new value in a drop down field in WebUI

I enhanced the standard activity component (i.e BT126S_APPT ). In this component, in BT126S_APPT/ApptSQ view there is a field 'PROCESS_TYPE' which is a dropdown. I have created a server event for this dropdown. So that whenever user selects a value in that dropdown, a event is called and after that DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION is called. In DO_CONFIG_DETERMINATION, I am checking the value of 'PROCESS_TYPE' and based on that i am setting different config keys, by calling SET_CONFIG_KEYS( ). But the configuration is not changing in WebUI. When I press F2 in WebUI its showing the config keys( searched for ) as I set, but the found config keys are same as before. I have created the configuration with the new configuration keys. Please help, I am new to crm.

Hello Shakthi,
The easier option would be to convert the DropDownByKey to DropDownByIndex. If you still want to proceed with DropDownByKey then you need to initialise the ALV data again. do the following
1. after changing the attribute-value_set, call the ALV interface controller method SET_DATA and pass the instance of the context node.
2. reintiliase all the ALV settings like edit mode, converting the column editor to DropDownByKey etc....
This will ensure the new attribute value set is reflected in the ALV component.

SSRS Matrix report to show or hide year column based on parameter value "Date" selected.

Hey experts!
I have a requirement an ssrs matrix report should display columns (year/s) based on parameter value (date/s).
My Dataset fileds are: Product, Year_name, Month_name, Date
Currently my report output looks like this-
Param Date: 2013-08-01 00:00:0.000
Product +Calender2011 +Calender2012 -Calender 2013........ +Calender2014
Total
Total Jan13 Feb 13 Mar13.. Dec13 Total Total
Abc 100
220
10 20 30....... 20 250 400
Xyz 110
200 50 80 40....... 30 450 600
My requirement: if I'm selecting Date parameter value as '2013-xx-xx' I should only able to see Year column 'Calender2013' and rest of the years should hide. Similarly If I'm selecting Date parameter value as '2014-xx-xx' I should only able to
see Year column 'Calender2014' .
Appreciate your kindly help.

Hi Afan,
According to your description, you want to only show the selected year on your report, right?
In this case, you need to get the year from the date parameter using the expression below
=Year(Parameters!Date.Value)
And then use the expression below to get the year from Year_Name field.
=Right(Fields!Year_Name.Value,4)
Then add a filter to the dataset to filter the data like below
Expression:=Year(Parameters!Date.Value)
Operator:=
Value:=Right(Fields!Year_Name.Value,4)
