Dynamicaly Change in crystal report

Hi,
How to insert a user modification fiela in crystal report.It means i need to enter some thing then after print the report .How is it possible?

I cannot understand what you are trying to achieve here.
How to insert a user modification fiela in crystal report
What do you mean by user modification field?
It means i need to enter some thing then after print the report
Are you trying to say that user need to choose an option from the field which needs to be shown in the report and then you can print the report?
If it is then you have to use Dynamic Parameters, you can create one from going into Field Explorer, right click on to the parameter and then choose "new" and then from the options choose "Dynamic" instead of static. Then choose the field which you would like the user to select an option from.
Place that parameter into your report and when you run the report it will ask use to choose an option from the dynamic parameter and when chosen and clicked OK it will show it in the report.
Hope this helps

Changing the Crystal Report dependency from 10.2 to 11.5 using config file

Hi,
We have an windows application in .net 2.0, which refers to Crystal Report 10.2 version. Now the dependency was being upgraded to 11.5. But we do not have the exact source code for the executable to change the dependency from 10.2 to 11.5.
I have installed the CR 11.5 to the testing machine and tried to open the appilcation. it failed saying CR 10.2 dlls were missing
Then I changed the .net config files to change the dependency assembly as follows
<runtime>
     <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
       <dependentAssembly>
         <assemblyIdentity name="CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" publicKeyToken="692fbea5521e1304" culture="neutral" />
         <bindingRedirect oldVersion="10.2.3600.0" newVersion="11.5.3700.0"/>
       </dependentAssembly>
       <dependentAssembly>
         <assemblyIdentity name="CrystalDecisions.ReportSource" publicKeyToken="692fbea5521e1304" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="10.2.3600.0" newVersion="11.5.3700.0"/>
       </dependentAssembly>
       <dependentAssembly>
         <assemblyIdentity name="CrystalDecisions.Shared" publicKeyToken="692fbea5521e1304" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="10.2.3600.0" newVersion="11.5.3700.0"/>
       </dependentAssembly>
       <dependentAssembly>
         <assemblyIdentity name="CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms" publicKeyToken="692fbea5521e1304" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="10.2.3600.0" newVersion="11.5.3700.0"/>
       </dependentAssembly>
      </assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
Now the application launched with out any issues. I thought the problem was sorted out.
But when I tried to generate the report, there comes the problem
During the report generation, I am getting the following error
Crystal Reports
An error has occurred while attempting to load the Crystal Reports runtime.
Either the Crystal Reports registry key permissions are insufficient or the Crystal Reports runtime is not installed correctly.
Please install the appropriate Crystal Reports redistributable (CRRedist*.msi) containing the correct version of the Crystal Reports runtime (x86, x64, or Itanium) required. Please go to http://www.businessobjects.com/support for more information.
OK
I do not want to install the 10.2 redistributable in teh machine also do not want to re-compile the sources changing the dependency
Is there any way to achieve this ?
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Edited by: Balaji Narasimhan on Aug 3, 2009 5:28 PM

No way that I know of. I believe once you change the dependency, you will have to recompile the project. Installing CR 10.2, may get this to work, but the app will most likely use the 10.2 references. Let's see if anyone else has any ideas.

How to change the Crystal Reports start page

The CR Start page has a panel on the bottom half which displays Highlights, Key Resources, and eLearning tabs. It is annoying. How do I turn it off?

One more idea:
Go to your below directory on your machine:
C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86\Start Page\en
Take a backup of start.html file (If the below, doesn't work you can put it back)
Open start.html and edit in notepad remove below code and save it , your annoying tab disappears
<div id="onlinecontent">
<iframe width="100%"
height="1200px" align="center" scrolling="auto" FRAMEBORDER="0" class="resources" id="onlineresourse"></iframe>
<script type="text/javascript">InitializeResourcesTag("onlineresourse")</script>
<script type="text/javascript">SetFrameSource("onlineresourse")</script>
</div>

Query changes not visible in Crystal Reports

Hello
I'm building a report on top a BI query. To solve some design problems I had to change my query in Query Designer. But I can't see those changes in Crystal Reports. The fields are the same as before, even when I click on 'Regenerate' in the context menue in Field Explorer.
Do I really have to build a complete new report to see these changes in Crystal Reports?
- Crystal Reports 2008, V1
- SAP Integration Kit 3.1
- Query designed Business Explorer 3.5 and 7.0 (effect appears with both versions)
- SAP GUI 710, Patch 11
Thank you for you help!
phil

After some more digging in this forum I found a solution to my problem in a totally different thread. It apparently needs two clicks:
1. Menue Report -> Verify Database
2. Menue Report -> Regenerate Data (freely translated from german CR)

Crystal Reports background processing for SAP Business One 8.8

Dear Partners,
I have an SDK program developed in SAP Business One SDK that works in 2007, it calls crystal reports externally and can be executed as a background task using the windows schedular or from the command prompt.
My problem is it does not work under SAP Business One SDK 2008 PL18 with SQL Server 2008, Visual Studio 2008.
I receive the following message after this line in my code,"oReport.PrintToPrinter(CopyNo, False, 0, 0)".
'CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.LogOnException: Logon failed.

My Question is what Crystal Reports libraries or other method should I be using ?
Crystal Reports 2008 for SAP Business One eg. 51038978.zip - downloaded from portal obviously dosn't contain the CrystalDecisions libraries.
Crystall Reports 2008 - cr2008_sp3_fullbuild, cr2008fp33.exe, cr2008fp33_mm, cr2008fp33_clickonce - also download from the portal, the cr2008_sp3_fullbuild does contain the crystal decisions libraries.
Finally other choices are crystal reports included with the visual studio 2008 and crystal reports full version direct from Business Objects.
I have tried different versions of crystal decision libraries- eg, 12.0110 or 12.02 but still no joy.
Also if I manage to get the report to fire what should the client be running eg, if they have the Crystal Reports 2008 for Business One do they also need to install the Crystal Reports Run time - cr2008fp33_clickonce.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi John
Since the SDK works in 2007 it will be using the OLD DB access method.
Change the Crystal report to use an OLE DB datasource rather than the SAP Business One data source.

Crystal reports 13.5 : Export to excel formatting

Hi. We are developing web application using VS 2010. We are using crystal reports 13. Initially we had VB6 application which used crystal reports 8.5. The format for excel report generated by crystal report 8.5 and crystal report 13.5 is different. We are using the export option in crystal report viewer for both reports. Is there any way in which we could make changes to crystal reports 13.5 to achieve similar excel formatting as crystal reports 8.5.

Hi Pooja,
Back in CR 8.5, it was the RDC COm SDK (CRAXDRT.dll) and with CR for VS 2010 it is .NET SDK which are two complete different SDKs and could not be compared.
However, the .NET SDK should export the report same as it is exported through CR designer.
Could you export the report in a newer designer possibly CR 2008 or CR 2011/2013 and compare the exported output with your .NET SDK export?
You could get the trial free download for CR desiner here.

Error during import of business object BOREPMA (crystal reports)

Dear Colleagues,
we have a problem with importing of crystal reports into productive system,
export works fine - I get .car files, but import finished with error : "Error occurred in data conversion".
We could not find any reason for this error..... may be someone had same issue in the past?
How can I check what happens in background during import?
Thank you very much for response

Hi Nick,
our problem is following: we changed *existing crystal report* on development workstation, and trying to import to q-workstation, as it was not possible, we made changes on q-workstation and trying to import to productive-workstation. We don't have crystal report designer on productive workstation and it is a reason why we can not create new report with same name as you suggested (on productive workstation).
In general, how should crystal reports be transferred between different systems (development, test,, productive) if you have crystal report designer only on development system? We think the export-import function can do this, but there is a data conversion error.... OSS message is created since 9 month, we don't get really solution from SAP...
Did you had the same problem or you have crystal report designer on productive workstation and can change coding there?
Thank you very much
Best rehgards

How to install SharePoint MOSS 2007 PIK for Crystal Report Server XI R2?

My configuration is :
Moss 2007 without any Crystal Report or BO component. on one box with Windows 2003 server
Cyrstal Report Server XI R2 on another box
I have downloaded the kit installation: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/503988db-58c5-2b10-f79d-cb96700417f9 [original link is broken]
I used this one as they said:
BusinessObjects XI Release 2 SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit
Download BusinessObjects XI Release 2 SharePoint 2007 Portal Integration Kit - ZIP 5MB
I do not have BO Enterprise.
Thanks,

Answered my own question. Managed to upgrade to 5.0 following this process, but follow these instructions with care...
1. Stop all CMS services in Config Manager.
2. Go to Add/Remove programs and click "change" for Crystal Reports Server XI. Click on "Modify" then change the entry for MySQL4.1.13a to "Entire Feature will be unavailable" (from Enterprise -> Server Components -> Servers - > Central Management Server). This will remove the existing mySQL version and any data/license key information/customisation, so be wary.
3. Install the desired version of mySQL.
4. Use the MySql command line to create a new database - "create DATABASE BOE115;"
5. In the Central Config Manager, select the CMS and display its properties. Select the Dependencies tab and remove the old version of mySQL and add the new version. Click on the Config tab, then Select Datasource. Select mySQL driver, then complete the details for the newly created database. Once complete it will still produce an error, at which point you need to select the options to Re-create the Current Datasource.
6. Once the datasource is sucessfully recreated, restart the Crystal service in the Config Manager.
7. Open the Config tool, and add your license key. Then Re-Enable all the servers within the Servers page.
8. Any other customisation or preferences would need to be re-applied.
This worked for me, but obviously take care as your existing mySQL database will be completely removed during the process.

TruncateClippedFieldStrings for Crystal Reports Server 2008?

When we were running Crystal Reports XI, we had to add the registry key "TruncateClippedFieldStrings" on our server, because text fields on Crystal Reports were overlapping rather than truncating. Now that we are on Crystal Reports Server 2008, we are having the same problem. Does anyone know if this same fix applies to Crystal Reports Server 2008, and if so, do I also have to change the Crystal Reports Page Server (which I don't see in 2008) and Crystal Reports Report Application Server?
Thanks,
jeff

Hi,
Yes, it is there. Just need to click on the right link. Try this
Support Portal -> Software Downloads -> BusinessObjects Downloads -> Support Packages and Patches-> C -> Crystal Reoprts Server 2008 V1.....
Yes, this is very tedious but I just checked and can confirmed SP3 is there.

Empty Crystal Report

Hi Experts,
I tried to change old crystal Reports template (AR invoice) after I imported in into 8.8 like this.
1. Rename parameter to DocKey@
2. Change Selection Record fomulas as {OINV.DocNum} = {?DocKey@}
3. Change Datasource to SAPB1 (In ODBC system DSN)
But when I click Preview in AR Invoice, it shows empty Invoice. No data in it.
Can you please advise me how to do? Thanks.
Regards,
Christina
Edited by: Christina Du on Dec 14, 2010 4:32 AM

Yes. I know how to do.
I used the wrong selection formulas. When I use OINV.DocEntry = {?DocKey@}
It is working......
Great!
Thanks Gordon!

Upgrading a Report from Crystal Reports 10 to Crystal Reports 11

Post Author: Chakradhar
CA Forum: Upgrade to XI 3.0
HI All,
Please provide a solution for this..
Is there any way to change the version of a report without redesigning the report?
If we upgrade the report without redisign, dont we lose the special features of the new version.
Actually i want to the change from Crystal Reports 10 to Crystal Reports 11.

Hi Chakradhar,
You can open an older version of the report in a new version of designer and just saving it again will automatically convert the version to the new version. To utilized new features you must modify the report and add the new features.
Cheers,
Muhammad
