  • Facing problem in "Add to Report" in Database expert in Crystal Reports

    Hi,
    I am using Crystal Reports XI R2 Service Pack 3 with Visual Studio 12.0 and Oracle Server as the Data source.
    I am trying to add an SP to the crystal report. When i select the SP and click the Add (>) button, it is not getting moved to the selected Tables list. This problem is seen only for a particular SP. If i select any other SP for the same report, it gets added. The SP is getting executed successfully in DB.
    Please let me know the probable cause for this issue.
    Regards,
    Swaminathan K

    For an Oracle stored procedure to work with Crystal it needs an "in out" parameter that is a RefCursor.  I believe that Crystal doesn't show stored procs that don't have that type of parameter.  You should also check security on the stored proc and make sure that the user id that your report uses has access to view and run the stored proc.

  • How to Print a report with 50 columns. Crystal Reports

    Dear Experts,
    I'm Using Crystal Reports 2008. I have a requirement that 50 columns should be placed in a  Single Report with single line . But Page size should be A4 ( While Printing).
    With Page Size A4 I'm able to place 5 columns.
    Is there any possibility to acheave this no matter if number of opages increases
    I Appreciate for the help in this regard.
    But I need to display all the 50 fields (columns) in a single report.
    I Achieved this by changing horizontal width to 70.
    I can Place all the fields in one line.
    But my concern is to print this report in A4 Paper I think its horizontal width will be 11.  from crystal reports itself
    I don't want to use cross tabs nor even use sql expression. Its just a simple display report for all the employees.
    is there any simple way out to Achieve this by paging... or any other method.
    Any help regarding this issue will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi:
       I'm not a expert in crystal report, but I would like help you,  i don't understand if must to show 50 diferrents fields in your report  or same field through 50 columns ?  for exemple:
    first case: You ned diferents fields
    F1                F2                 F3                 ... F50
    item1  F1      Item1 F2         Item1 F3       Item F50
    item2  F1      Ite21 F2         Item2 F3       Item F50
    In this case you must put the 50 fields in the report, just enough small to fit page
    second case: You nedd the same field in 50 columns
    Colum 1      Colum2      Column 50
    item 0          item 11      item 490
    item 1          item 12      item 491
    item 2          item 13      item492
    item 10       item 20      item 500
    inm this case i haven't idea how to make it (sorry)

  • Creating OLAP report with Crystal Reports and SQL Server Analysis Services 2005

    Post Author: orahc_mao
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    Hi!
    I am currently using the trial version of the Crystal Reports XI and I wanted to do an OLAP report. The problem is I cannot select a cube using "OLAP Connection Browser" (the popup window). I already selected Microsoft OLE DB Provider and entered the server name but still can't connect.
    I don't think the problem is with SQL Server Analysis Services (2005) since Microsoft Excel - Import Data can detect the server as well as the cube I have created.
    I also tried the "Database Expert" of Crystal Reports, created an OLE DB (ADO) connection with "OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services 8.0" driver, entered the server name, checked the integrated security and then I can readily select the database created at SQL Server Analysis Services. However, I still need the OLAP grid create the report but it goes back to my original problem... selecting a cube.
    I hope somebody would help me with this issue.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hello,
    I don't recognize those variables as CR ones so it's likely something the original developer is setting in code.
    You'll have to discuss with that person.
    If your have SDK issues then post your question to one of the .NET or Java SDK forums.
    Thank you

  • Problem Exporting Crystal Reports 8.5 to an rtf file

    I have an app written in VB 6, data stored in Access 2000 format and reports in Crystal Reports 8.5.  From print preview of CR 8.5, I chose to export the report to an rtf file. When opening the rtf file, the report has print over top of print as if when my headers are repeated the information that follows prints on top of the header.  It also appears that the page breaks are not the same which causes overflow to the next page. I suspect that it has something to do with choosing to repeat headers in my group sections in CR.  I need these headers to be repeated when previewing or printing the CR.
    We have tried exporting to Word 2003 and Word 2007 and it seems even worse. 
    Any ideas for a remedy?
    Thank you.

    Hi
    If you are exporting the report using the custom application and there you are facing this issue, then please post the thread in Expert Forums » Crystal Reports and Xcelsius » .NET Development - Crystal Reports for quicker response.
    Else please try the below :
    1.Uncheck the option for repeat group header.
    2.Check Keep together for all the sections from the section expert.
    Export the report once again and see if that works.
    Regards

  • Connecting Crystal report with MySql

    Post Author: brajbhushan
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    hi all
            i m trying to connect crystal reports XI Release 2 to MySql 5.0 using ODBC.Problem is that after connecting it successfully it shows only few fields of our table in database when i see it in Database Expert of Crystal Reports. The second problem is that the fields don't have any data with them. Can anyone guide me is there any problem with Crystal Reports while connecting to MySql. Is there any Compatibilty Problem of DataType in Crystal Reports while using MySql.
    Thanks

    Moved to .NET SDK forums
    First issue is CR 10 has not been tested nor is it supported in VS 2010.
    To use CR in VS 2010 download [CR for VS 2010|Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 Production Release Now Available;
    Likely what your problem is is you are not setting or replacing the database connection info but without more info I can't suggest how to fix it. It could also be that you have set your framework to 4.0, CR 10 is FW 1.1 or possibly 2.0 only.
    Or you may even be trying to use the craxddrt.dll which is again no longer supported not are you licensed to use it or distribute it.
    Also you'll likely run into version problems with IIS. I believe CR 10 only supported IIS 5 but check the platforms PDF for more info.
    Good luck.

  • Crystal Report 2011 does not display when keyfigures are zero

    I am using Crystal report 2011 with BEX Queries as Data Source. I am not able to see some of the characteristics values when keyfigures are zero or null. In BEX query there is a costCenter Characterstic, few costcenter characteristics values are zero for some months but BEX Query is designed to show as spaces even if the keyfigures are zero for those costcenters. When I am using the same Bex Query with Crystal report 2011 all the costcenters with keyfigures as zero are not showing up on the report. Can anybody suggest how I can show the characterstics values even if all the keyfigures are zero. (I have not selected any kind of suppression in section expert in crystal report), (In Bex Query CostCenter- Properties-Advanced----Access Type for Result values are set to Master Data)

    Hi,
    Have you made sure the correct Transport files have been loaded on the SAP system? Since you're using CR 2011, you need to make sure the Transports that come with this version of CR are present on the SAP system.
    Could you see if the workaround mentioned in SAP Note: 1391673 works for you?
    Here's a snippet of the SAP Note:
    SAP Development team of BW BEX MDX Interface suggest the following implementation:
    Since Crystal Reports is not correctly interpreting the character used to represent NULL values (by default the value: X) please use the Customizing transaction: RSCUSTV4 to change the sent value.
    Please note, this is a Global setting, and will also modify the behaviour in BEx application.
    WORKAROUND: Create a formula field based on the selection that always returns a number - converting null to 0.
    Create a formula in BEx for the KF.
    Edit the Selection
    Edit the formula to behave like:
    COUNT ('KF') * 'KF' + 0
    ('RKF' + 0) * 1
    Not generally acceptable since it requires duplicating fields.
    Also, business may not accept 0,00 for a NULL result.
    Hope this helps!

  • Crystal Report VS2005 - Table fields missing in Database Expert

    Hi,
    I am having a problem with the Crystal Report comes with Visual Studio 2005. I am trying to develop a customized report for SAP Business One. When I try to add two tables using the Database Expert, there are certain fields missing in the LINK page. This is a big problem for me because I need to link that field with another table. Oddly, it doesn't seems that there are anything wrongs with the missing fields. If I click OK and check at the Field Explorer, the missing fields are there!!!
    In other words, it is missing only at the Database Expert --> Link Tab. Anyone having the same problem? Is this a known issue or any patch that I can apply to resolve this issue?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c

    Need help Connecting Crystal Reports 8.5 with GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c.  I need assistance on connecting these together so I can run a report.  I am not an IT person so if someone could dumb it down it would be great.
    Thanks,
    NBGHealth

    Hello,
    I assume GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c is some sort of database or data source? If you have an ODBC driver then create or use a System DSN to the database. Then you can create a report using that DSN.
    Otherwise I suggest you contact the makers of GBS Agency Expert 6.7.6c and ask them how to connect to the database.
    Let them know CR is ANSII 92 ODBC 3 compliant.
    Thank you
