Excel export are merging cells for data on multiple lines !

Hello,
I'm using Crystal Report XI R2, when we are doing an export to Excel with have an unexpected formatting.
For example the value of the name is on 2 lines:
=> So, on Excel the result is on 2 lines but merged. We want to have this result only on one cells.
Remark: if we delete the 2nd lines, because cells are merged we obtain the expected result.
Proposal A:
Are they any set-up available concerning the formatting of Excel ?
Proposal B:
Could we run some VBA when we click on Export button to make queries on the Excel ?

When they introduced Unicode support in Crystal 9 (I believe), they had to completely re-write the export routines. At that time, they made a decision to change the functionality of the excel export. Crystal is attempting to remain absolutely faithful to the graphical layout of the report as you see it in the viewer. So it creates merged cell sections, empty columns between columns, and empty rows to give you as close to exactly what you see in the viewer as possible. Unfortunately, the result is typically less than useful. Iu2019ve had several conversations with Business Objects (now SAP) with regards to this when they changed it between versions 8.5 and 10, and they have no intention of changing the functionality as it now exists.
There is a document which is now likely somewhere on the SAP portal that explains what you need to do to obtain the best results when exporting to excel.
The jist of it is this:
Line up all of the columns detail data with thier headers, and make sure that data fields are the same size as thier headers.
Line up all rows (headers and detail rows). (ie: select everything in the row, right click, align tops, and make the same height)
cram everything as close together as possible. zero space in the report translates to zero extra collumns and rows in the export.
the other option is to use the export to data only functionality, but that may not be what you're looking for either.

How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items

Dear Experts,
How to Restrict Single Delivery Date for PO with Multiple Line Items.
System needs to through Error Message if User Inputs Different Delivery Dates for PO with Multiple Line Items in ME21N Tcode.
Can we achive this by Some Enhancement in SAP or Not ???
If so how to do it.
Any Inputs is highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Selvakumar. M

Hi Selvakumar,
we can resrict the PO to have a single delivery date in all the line items by means of giving a error message or overwiting the delivery date keyed/determined in the line item.
You can use the BADI -> ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST. In which you need to implement the method PROCESS_SCHEDULE.
(for technical aid - This method will be called for each and every PO line item, From the imporing parameter im_schedule we can get all the details of current PO line, even we can change the data in the current PO line. )

Partial goods receipt for PO with multiple line items

Hello All,
While doing MIGO, for a PO with multiple line items, if one line item is having error, will we be able to go ahead with goods receipt? Or entire material document is blocked for doing MIGO?
We will be doing a development - in case if there is problem in goods receipt (checking of any parameter, and if it is missing - we will be posting error message)...is it possible to ahead with next line item and still post the material document?
If partial goods receipt if possible for PO with multiple line items, how do we do it?

RJS

Hi
While doing MIGO, for a PO with multiple line items, if one line item is having error, will we be able to go ahead with goods receipt? Or entire material document is blocked for doing MIGO?
No. You cannot post the MIGO, if even one of the PO line item is having problem or giving error.
We will be doing a development - in case if there is problem in goods receipt (checking of any parameter, and if it is missing - we will be posting error message)...is it possible to ahead with next line item and still post the material document?
If you skip a line irem and do GR with next line item, how will you match quantity & value with the vendor Invoice at LIV ?
If partial goods receipt if possible for PO with multiple line items, how do we do it?
Partial goods receipt is possible for PO line items. That means, if PO has 100 qty for line item 1 then you can do GR for 50 now and 50 later depending on the vendors delivery.
Hope this is what you mean by "Partial Goods Receipt".

When I create a PDF from Excel, there are blank cells in Excel document, when they convert to PDF the blank cells have data in them?

There are cells in the excel document that have formula's in them. The formulas are pulling data from other blank cells, so that is why they are blank in the formulated cells. So in Excel, they are just a dash. When I create the PDF, the document gets opened in Acrobat and the once blank cells have data in them. Not sure why there is data in those fields on the PDF if its blank on Excel.

Not really sure that I fixed the problem, but I did find a work around and wanted to post it if someone else runs across the same issue. Apparently the document creator used lots of custom rules and shading. If I pulled up the custom rules and shading palette and just unchecked both the custom ruling and shading boxes, it allowed me to create the print file correctly--the disappearing part numbers were on the new PDF. I didn't have to update the whole book which I didn't want to do because I feared it would mess up the rules and shading. Just unchecking the box before creating the PDF solved that issue for my purposes.

Extract/Scan for numbers from multiple lines of strings

Hi All,
I would like to extract numbers (the data) obtained from a serial acquisition which will be shown in multiple line of strings:
$#pressure 20
!@temperature 100
#voltage 1.2
I want to extract 20,100 and 1.2 so that I can do further data manipulation. Should I use match regular expression ? I could not get a proper regular expression to extract the numbers.
Thank you !
Solved!

Hi there! Yes your method works, but it would be better if we can keep all the data into an array separated to pressure, temperature and voltage since we are continuously acquiring data.
Can we put it into array ?
Pressure Temperature Voltage
20 100 1.2
21 101 1.2
Whose method? You don't say who you are referring to (and if you don't quote at least part of a message, we don't know unless you tell us).

BDC for VA01 with multiple line items

Hi,
My client is 4.6c version, I have created a BDC program for transaction VA01 which will have multiple line items. I'm able to enter 12 items in the first instance, then 12 items next time. But I'm not doing any P+..System is automatically taking me to first item after reaching item 12 every time.
But I have a doubt in production system also I will have only 12 items every time to enter..If not my program may not work..
I'm calling BDC using following statment..
CALL TRANSACTION 'VA01' USING BDCDATA
                    MODE 'N'
                    UPDATE 'S'
                    MESSAGES INTO lt_message.
Please suggest me the solution.
Regards
Jaker.

I had a similar problem with goods movements in a CO11N BDC I wrote. Here's how it was fixed:
DATA: lcl_opt     TYPE ctu_params.
lcl_opt-defsize = 'X'.
CALL TRANSACTION 'CO11N' USING i_bdctbl OPTIONS FROM lcl_opt
                             MESSAGES INTO messco11n.
The option "defsize" makes sure that the screen always contains the same number of lines as it goes through the BDC. That way, you can write in the paging logic without having to worry about the number of lines that appear on a user's screen as it may vary depending on how their screen resolution is set up.

Excel export sum of cells problem in ssrs report

Hii all
i have ssrs report when i export it to excel and try to take sum of block of cells , it just shows me row count
not sum of values which i have selected to sum..
please have a look on this ..
the data in cell is a text ..
help please ..
Dilip Patil..

Hi Dilip,
In Reporting Services, sum function returns the sum of all the non-null numeric values specified by the expression, evaluated in the given scope. If the values are text type values, we couldn’t sum the values. While we can count the values. For more details,
please see:
Sum Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
After export the report to Excel format, we can also aggregate the values in Excel file. Based on my test, we can select a block of cells, then click the Quick Analysis icon to calculate the values. When the values are non-null numeric values, there are
many calculation functions, including sum function. While the values are text type values, there is only count function under TOTALS option. So this is by design. There is no way to sum text type values, it doesn’t make sense.
If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
Thanks,

Whne I copy text from firefox into excel, linenumbers are prefixed to my data. how do I stop this

This is a problem which occurs on both the PC and MAC platforms. When I select text on a webpage in Firefox and then copy that text and try to paste it into Excel, line numbers appear at the start of each line of text. This wouldn't be a problem if the numbers were in a separate column but they are embedded in the same cell as the text which I've copied. This does not happen in other browsers.

I can confirm it is using the single ID that is causing this issue.
You will need to use multiple ID's however, these can share the same payment ID.
Hope this helps!

Merging cells for each row possible?

Hi,
I'm trying to merge two columns together (First name and Surname) so that the values are together i.e.
A1 with A2
B1 with B2 etc.
Is there a way to do it all in one go so I don't need to go through each row manually? There are around 4000 entries, so I hope so!
Thanks for any help,
osu

osu,
You can do this by writing an expression in a third column. So, A & B will be joined in, for instance, C.
This can be done either with the concatenation operator, "&", or with the CONCATENATE function.
Writing =A&B will do it literally as you have requested. Most people would want a space between the two. You can do that with: =A&" "&B.
After writing that in C1, click back on C1 and Edit > Copy. Then click on the "C" label above C1 to select the entire column. Now Edit > Paste to fill the rest of column with your expression.
Be prepared to wait awhile for it to calculate because 3000 rows is a large file for Numbers. A "spinning ball of hard work" may be present for some time before you see the results.
Let us know how that goes for you.

Possible to hit enter on table cell & retrieve data without selecting line?

Hi All,
We're using ECC6. I I have a situation where the user wants to be able to hit a cell in a table which will then fire a report and pass the contents of that cell to the report.
So far I have been only able to get this working when the row is highlighted, I can easily pick up the values from the lead selection. But the user does not want to have to highlight a row every time to run the report. The user just wants to hit return a cell and for the report to be updated with the value in that cell.
So, I'm just wondering if it is possible to hit enter in any table cell and retrive the data without highlighting the row?
Many thanks in advance,
Liz.

Hi,
You want complete row data or perticular cell data??
Basic q's, without selecting a row how can we get data? without selecting means you get complete data on table,
In that case which data you have to pass to report?
Or if you dont want to select data means, create one more field of type button. so in thins button action get that row data
and call report from here itself.
Cheers,
Kris.

Are you looking for BIG Rhythmic Synth lines?

For those of you into Trance/Techno. Here is an excellent tip that a lot of you will know but for those that don't.....
1) Choose a Nice PAD sound from the EXS24 library on Audio Instrument Track 1. For this example choose Analog Pads>Matrix12Strings.
2) Set up a loop for 4 bars.
3) Put in a distinct Rhythmic Apple loop on Audio Track 1, filling the 4 bar loop (For this I suggest a 'Cowbell Groove 01' from the Garage Band Loop Library for easy results).
4) MUTE the chosen Loop in either the Environment OR the Audio Mixer - Do not MUTE the Arrange.
5) Insert a 'Noise Gate' into the EXS24 Track.
6) Set Attack to 2 ms, Hold to 100ms, Release to 80 ms, Then Slide the Threshold up to 20dB. Lookahead 0ms, Hysteresis -3dB. High Cut 20000Hz. Low Cut 20Hz. Select SideChain>Track 1 at the top of the Noise Gate menu.
7) Insert a Stereo Delay or Send it to a bus. Use the 'Double Pan Delay' preset for the sake of this demo.
Now Play your EXS24 Pad Track and chill out at 90 bpm or get the bangin' choons at 130bpm. Loads of Fun - Now you know why Oakenfold/Sasha/Transeau sounded so good in the 90's......
Cheers

good to see people discovering good ol tricks of the trade for themselves..
here's another one, good for dance music of many genres:
use a compressor with sidechain. key the sidechain to the kick drum, or to some other significant, strong rhythmic element like a loop or percussion part. put this compressor on a pad sound and play with threshold levels, attack and release till you get a nice pumping effect on the sound that works rhythmically.
also, don't just limit yourself to using this on simple pad sounds.. make an effects bus with a nice chain of flangey/phasey/long delay stuff on it, and send a whole bunch of tracks to it, as you would normally.. then, try a limiter or compressor on it, sidechained as described above. now you start getting that expensive, "how do they make it all sound so rich and full, yet punchy and rhythmic" sound.. very good especially in rich, fat, washy deep and progressive house styles, but also works a treat on more electronic styles like trance and the very plastic electro house stuff coming out these days too.
basically, the key (pardon the pun) is to find clever uses of sidechained effects, because it makes the elements of your mix interact organically and responsively, and just plain sound expensive and classy.

Using an MS Excel like template for data entry into an Oracle table

Does anybody know of a way, or development tool, that has the look and feel of MS Excel but can be used for data entry and be saved to an Oracle table and be embedded into a JSP page? I am currently using iSupport and have a need to allow users to enter data into an MS Excel like template, once the user saves the service request I need for the values to be saved in the attribute fields of the service request. I need the ability to map the cells of the template to the fields in the Oracle table. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Writing merged cells vertically

Hello,
In Excel I can merge cells of the same column and write a text in those merged cells and put the text vertically.
I try to do the same with Numbers '08 but was not possible.
I know that I can insert a text box but this do not resolve my need, because I need a 4000+-row SS with 200 dates that need to be written vertically _ to save space — maintaining the path.
Is this feature in Numbers '09 or — if you are an Apple insider — in Numbers '11?
Extra: why is Numbers so much slow than AppleWorks SS?
Thanks,
Jorge Lucas (the guy from Rio Grande do Sul)

Yvan,
My interest in the iPad depends on 2 or 3 things:
1) if I am able to build a better and bigger db that the one I already have functioning — for over 10 years — in the db module of AW (the one that you knew some years ago and that is better now, with its 255 fields (it is limited at 255) running fine;
2) if I can get the pdf or e-book version of my text book ( I have the free paper version and I tried — unsuccessfully — to buy the digital copy (the book alone weighs 1 Kg);
3) I need to see which Math apps I can have that substitute the ones I have on the MacBook;
4) I was counting on the full versions of Pages, Numbers and Keynote — you put cold water on my plans.
Apart from the classroom usage that would be something — just imagine, been able to hold it with one hand and write in the board with the other! — it would be nice to use it as an e-book reader and/or internet reader.
But, if the iPad does not do the things I need, I am also considering a MacBook Air 13.3” (1.32 Kg), hoping that I can use AppleWorks in Lion or going to FileMakerPro.
But even this option is hard to implement it because here we have to pay more than double the American price; and our salaries are very much less than the American.
By the way, you said:
I don't understand why FileMaker which is able to create FileMaker Go for the iPad is unable to do the same for the Mac. Bento is far from being an alternative to the AppleWorks DB module.
The last hope I had about the inclusion of a DB module in the iWork suite, was gone after FileMaker made the list organizer Bento: it was very clear that they would not include the Filemaker Pro in the suite because it alone costs more than the all suite; so *+I thought that Apple would ask FileMaker to produce a flat version (not relational) — that could be named “FileMaker” (without the “Pro”)+*.
They could charge for it the same as each of the existing 3 applications.
Bento is very much less than this and because your thoughts on it, I never even tried it.
So, I better wait the release of the new iPad, the iWork ’11, put some money together and find a way to make my teaching easier.
+Thank you for the bad news about iWork for iPad.+
Now, I am closer to the Air.
