Dynamically display drill-down column in report

We have two drill-down hierarchies 1. Calendar Year and 2. Fiscal Year.
In a report, we have year column along with some other measures. The year column must show the values based on user's choice - If the user is interested in fiscal then the year must show fiscal year else the year must show the calendar year values.
We thought of the following approach
1. Use a prompt - which displays Calendar/Fiscal.
2. Store the user selected prompt value (Calendar/Fiscal) in a variable
3. In the report, for the year column, use CASE logic on the variable to decide whether Calendar year or the Fiscal year must be shown.
This works well but the drawback is - the year isn't drillable anymore.
Any other alternatives to solve this ?
Thanks in advance

Are you showing the report on a dashboard or just in Answers? Do you want in-place drilling or can you jump to a new report?
One option is to enable navigation on the year column data and set it to jump a new report - you will need to pass the cell values as arguments in the URL - but if you want to just use plain old drill down (within the same report) I think you will have to use two reports, one for fiscal and one for calendar. Here we can get a little creative and use guided analytics to choose which of the two reports to show on the dashboard based on the selection made.

How to reset drill-down column-chart based on map-chart?

Hi guys,
I'm facing pritty common issue while designing one of my dashboards. Let me describe a little bit more:
1. I have some data extracted from BW using Query as WebService into my Xcelsius spreadsheet.
2. I have map-chart - regions for some country.
3. I have a drill-down column-chart, which displays data for a selected region.
At the beginning column-chart displays results for entire country (which, in fact, is not exactly drill-down). The issue I'm fasing is, that in case I select any region and the data is drilled-down into my column-chart, I have no option to show data for the entire county in the column-chart anymore (the only one way is to restart the report).
Are there any possible way to do this, or am I doing a design error while displaying data, which is not drilled-down, into a chart which is intended to display drill-down data only?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Ivaylo Mutafchiev,
I understand your problem now. So your column chart data which is coming from the QAAWS query should be having a prompt which is bound to some cell in excel. and your map might be passing the values for prompt isn't it? in your case the map might be passing a region.
All you need to do is put the prompt in the web service for region as a optional prompt. Now pull in a check box or a Push button(name it as reset or something.). while binding the data to the check box or push button (source data) bind it to a blank cell. when user clicks on it , it passes a blank vlaue to the region(this is ur input for region) which will inturn makes the prompt optional for the region web service. which should pull all the data for all the region.
The whole idea lies in somehow passing a blank cell to your web service whose region prompt is optional.
Thanks,
Karthik

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.

if the drill the Year option I can able to see all Quarter level measures and if I drill down further I can get into Month level measures and Week level and so on .
But my question is When I drill the Year to Quarter...I want it to display both Year and Quarter and If I drill down further
I want all the measures related to Year ,Quarter, Month and so on
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.

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.

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

Dynamic Drill Down Column wise in Webi Report

Hi All,
I need to have dynamic drill down functionality in my webi report.
For example
I have Columns;
Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Plant, No. of PO line (4 columns).
Drill down on Plant level.
When i click on plant a new column should be added in webi report.
Now my report should look like this;
Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Plant, Buyer, No. of PO line (5 columns)...(New column Buyer is added)
How to do this.
Please help me guys.
Thanks in advances!!!
Regards,
Gaurav Nayar

Hi,
What you want is possible as long as the table formatting you have helps.
What you can do is add a column to the table. Then use the following formulas
Formula in Column Name Cell:
=If(Drillfilters([Plant])="") Then "" Else Nameof([Buyer])
Formula in Column Values Cell:
=If(Drillfilters([Plant])="") Then "" Else ([Buyer])
Now, what I meant by "as long as your table formatting you have helps" is that, you need to change the border colors of the extra column to match with the report blank area, means the borders should be white in colour and the column width should be autofit and they wont be visible as they are white, once you drill on plants, the values come up.
So if your table has no border, that will be perfect.
Hope this helps.

Problem displaying drill down STANDARD ALV for a particular record after pressing back button

I have a simple interactive ALV grid report. NOT 'OO'. It display correctly on initial execution. AT the moment, 6 records. I want it to work such that if i click record '1', a drill-down version of that ALV with only that one record clicked is displayed. This currently occurs correctly. The problem arises when i click the back button and want to click on a new record, say in the 2nd row..this new 2nd row record is not displayed. The first one is displayed again. I tried clearing and fiddling around but then the last record is displayed. I have used the 'ID' field as a 'hotspot' getting picked up by sy-tabindex. Maybe it could be that i shouldn't loop and use a work area e.g in my select statement. i'm not so sure i've looked around, and tried a few things. I can't get it right yet. My code is below:

Hi Ten Mariga,
                 I wonder why the second select Query is needed at all instead you can use
---> Not Needed
FORM DATA_RETRIEVAL1.
SELECT * FROM zcontact INTO TABLE it_zcontact WHERE id EQ wa_zcontact-id.
ENDFORM.
----> Instead you can do
   READ TABLE it_zcontact INTO wa_zcontact INDEX p_seltab-tabindex.
Append wa_zcontact to Second_table.
And you can use the Second_table to display the second ALV. The second Select Query will affect the performance too.

Looking For Method Of Displaying Drill-Down Subreport Data On Same Page

Not sure what the technical term for this is, but I need to find a way to display dynamic drill-down sub-report data within a report. Here is an example of what I am trying to accomplish:
+ DATA SUMMARY 1
+ DATA SUMMARY 1
- DATA SUMMARY 1
        data detail 11
        data detail 12
- DATA SUMMARY 2
        data detail 2
        data detail 2
The idea is you click on the + (plus sign) and the subreport detail unfolds below the summary row. To close the sub-report data, you click on the - (minus sign). Right now, the report pops up the sub-report data in a separate tab, which is not what the client wants.

Who doesn't know if this is a function of report design or of viewer manipulation of report data...

I think this is called In Place Drill Down.

Drill down hide/show report on same page

Hi,
Is it possible to create a drill down report where instead of linking to new pages, the details can be displayed using hide/show buttons on the relevant columns? For example, if you have the following fields:
Region
Country
Division
Account
Order
Product ID
Product Price
Would it be possible to ,by default, have the report only show distinct regions. By clicking an expand button on a particular region, it's countries are displayed. By clicking an expand button on a country, its divisions are displayed,etc., eventually being able to drill down to order details.
This seems similar to a tree to me, although I have not used trees before. However, from the way I understand the structure of hierarchy in trees, the way this data is structured it would not be possible through a tree.
Any ideas? If not I can just settle on a standard drill down report with links to new pages, but if the above is possible it would work much better for my users.
Thanks

FJW,
Yes, it's possible. We typically refer people to this demo from Carl to get an idea of how it can be accomplished:
