For #5, not Windows, ConfigMgr 2012 R2. Anything before ConfigMgr 2012 R2 is not supported for the 8.1 ADK.
For the permissions, what accounts are you setting this for. In general, if the share is on the same server, Everyone Full or Read on the Share and System Full or Read on the NTFS should work.
For the error message, it looks like you are trying to import an OS Image and not an OS Install Package. OS images use a WIM file and OS Install Packages use the entire set of source files from the media. For OS images, you must thus explicitly point it
to a specific WIM file.

CRM 7.0 - Enhancement of Data Sources for interactive Reporting

Hallo All,
I would like to know whether anybody has positive experience with the enhancement of CRM Data Sources for interactive Reporting. I read that the enhancement of Customer fields should be possible (Those Data Sources below the Hierarchy node /CRMBW/ROOT).
I have seen that the extract structure can be enhanced via RSA6 (as for other data sources).
Questions:
1. Which USEREXIT / BADI has to be used to fill the added fields?
2. Does it work?
Best regards

Hi!
Those DS are not meant to be enhanced manually but only by one of the following two ways:
1. Adding custom fields with the Application Enhancement Tool (AET) in the CRM UI.
2. Adding SAP fields with the Interactive Reporting Enhancement Workbench (IREW).
The AET is available since CRM 7.0. Please find more details in the SAP Help Portal:

Data source for SQR reporting

Is it possible to use the Brio Query or Report Results as a data source for an SQR report? Instead of accessing a database for an SQR, can I use the Results section instead?

N0 you need to create ur own generic datasource for line items - it is not delivered.
0FI_GL_4 reads BSEG and BKPF
where as the new Gl line items is based on table FAGLFLEXA

Universe as data source for Crystal Reports

Are there any issues in using a Universe as the data source for a crystal reports? We are using Business Objects Enterprise XI R2 and Crystal Reports XI R2.
Thanks in advance for your response,
Garet Wicker

Hi,
We can have a parameter from a Universe, following are the steps which will create the report which is based a Universe with a parameter.
-connect to the universe and you will a Query Panel.
-drag some objects in the Result Objects field. Ex. Country, Revenue.
-then drag an object in the Query Filter. Ex. Country.
-then a new window will appear as Filter Editor.
-Select the prompt option and also select the check box as u201CSelect only from listu201D.
-Click on Ok.
When you refresh the report then there will be a parameter prompting for the Country field. Also you will see a parameter created automatically in the parameter list.
However if you try to create a new parameter (without modifying anything from the query panel) by with the following workflow then there is no option to select the field for the parameter.
-Right click on Parameter fieldsu2014New parameter.
-When you click on the drop down list in the u201CValue Fieldu201D list there are no available fields/objects.
Hence we can create a parameter in CR which is connected to the Universe with the steps mentioned above.
I hope this helps you.
Regards,
Prashant.

2.5 GB CSV file as data source for Crystal report

Hi Experts,
I was asked to create a crystal report using crystal report as datasource(CSV file that is pretty huge (2.4Gb)). Could you help with me any doc that expalins the steps mainly with data connectivity.
Objective is to create Crystal Report using that csv file as data source, save the report as .rpt with the data and send the results to customer to be read with Crystal Reports Viewer or save the results to PDF.
Please help and suggest me steps as I am new to crystal reports and CSV as source.
BR, Nanda Kishore

Nanda,
The issue of having some records with comma and some with a semi colon will need to be resolved before you can do an import. Assuming that there are no semi colons in any of the text values of the report, you could do a "Find & Replace" to convert the semi colons to commas.
If find & replace isn't an option, you'll need to get the files separately.
I've never used the Import Export Wizzard myself. I've always used the BULK INSERT command
It would look something like this...
BULK INSERT SQLServerTableName
FROM 'c:\My_CSV_File.csv'
WITH (FIELDTERMINATOR = ',')
This of course implies that your table has the same columns, in the same order as the csv files and that each column is the correct data type to accept the incoming data.
If you continue to have issues getting your data into SQL Server Express, please post in one of these two forums
[Transact-SQL|http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/transactsql/threads]
[SQL Server Express|http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlexpress/threads]
The Transact-SQL forum has some VERY knowledgeable people (including MVPs and book authors) posing answers.
I've never posed to the SQL Server Express but I'm sure they can trouble shoot your issues with the Import Export Wizard.
If you post in one of them, please copy the post link back to this thread you I can continue to to help.

Switching Data Source for a report with stored procedure

Post Author: ysbn
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I've created a report and deployed it on a Crystal Server. The report is based on a certain stored procedure which also exists on other DB machines in my environment (Oracle machines). When I try to switch my report object to work with other machines (not the one originally used when the report was designed) the activation of the report fails. The error I see in the preview window is:
Error in File <my rpt file name>: Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 6550 ]
When I try the same thing with a report which is based on a view and not a stored procedure the switching of Data Source works perfectly.
Is there a problem switching between data sources from the server when the report is based on stored procedure? Are there any configurations I need to do in order to support this scenario?
Thanks!

Hi everyone~
i am now facing the same problem
i am using CR2008 and Visual Studio 2008 c# to write a window program
because we have 2 db environment (one is production , the other one is development) so i have set a prarameter to switch db connection in c# code.
the database is Oracle, and the the report will connect to Oracle procedure (which it is stored in package) this procedure will return reference cursor, so the report will loop up this cursor to generate report.
at first time, it work fine when i open the report in CR2008 designer and point to dev database (ie datasource point to oracle procedure) . but when i want to deploy this win application to client and point to prod database, it show (vendor error 6550)
i found that i cannot change the datasource during runtime in c# code...
am i miss something in code? here attached a part of this code...
private void setDBLogonForReport(ConnectionInfo info, ReportDocument doc)
            Tables myTables = doc.Database.Tables;
            foreach (Table myTable in myTables)
                TableLogOnInfo logOnInfo = myTable.LogOnInfo;
                logOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = info;
                logOnInfo.TableName = myTable.Name;
                myTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(logOnInfo);
                //myTable.Location = info.UserID + "." + "pkg_crystal_report." + myTable.Name;
                //someone suggest i have to set the 'Location' for change the datasource, but i am not sure how to construct a
                //string for point to oracle prcedure
i will check it freq ... hope any expert can give me some advice ~
thank you very much!!!

Data Source for Oracle reports

Hi,
Can Oracle Reports support anyother data source. I am using
Reports Server to invoke reports. The requirement is client
passing the dat that have to come in the report. (The size of
data can be high).So is there any method other than sending the
data as parametes(which in this case is not feasible).
The client is a browser.
Regards
Ravi

hello,
oracle reports 6i supports SQL, PLSQL and Express as datasource.
for passing large amounts of data, a temporary table in the
database would be most reasonable.

Crystal Reports Server 2011 and BW 7 as a data source for uploaded reports.

Hello,
I am hoping someone can provide me with a clear answer for this.
Lets assume..
1. We are running crystal reports server 2011 and BW 7
2. We want to publish a report in the BI Launch pad so users can view it
3. Can we create a crystal report in the report designer with the data source as BW 7 then upload it to the reports server and have it run on-demand and Run over night?
Can anyone shed some light in this area?
kind regards
david

Hi,
Crystal Reports Server is not supporting the SAP Integration Kit. You will need BusinessObjects Edge or BusinessObjects Enterprise

Best Data source for Crystal Reports

Hi Experts,
We have decided to use Crystal Reports 2008, for our project & advised to use BO Universe(based on Dimensional model) as data source against using the Dimensional tables directly(in Oracle).
Since the Universes are based on Dimensional model, typically I have to link two or three Universes for each report. I am concerned about the query performance time involved for the Universe approach vs. using the Dimensional tables directly.
I understand Universe as Meta-Data layer that hides all the database complexity from the end-user, and is a favorable option for Adhoc reports created by end users.
But for developers who are going to create 400 odd reports, I don't see any advantage that Universe brings, compared to linking the tables at Crystal Designer.
And we do not want to write customized Stored Procedures for every report, so our options are Universe/ Oracle tables.
Appreciate any help from you on helping my process.
Thanks.

IMHO, the Universe is fantastic for sophisticated end users (who have a general knowledge of logic or a logical mind) to build ad hoc reports. (Less sophisticated users should not be given the ability to design reports.) It should not be used for production reports that will run frequently, as performance can deteriorate quickly. (This is particularly true if you design the universe with the intent to build multiple reports off of one logical view. You tend to do a lot of extra work to gather data that is not needed for the task at hand. Our universe was designed this way - before I got here... I tend not to use it on new reports...)
There is no question in my mind that direct SQL will be the most performant way to develop the reports. In fact, I'd even suggest using SQL Commands as the basis for the reports so the database does all of the heavy lifting of table linking, record selection, sorting, and summarizing. That's what databases are built to do! (I know Crystal is supposed to push what it can to the database, but its definition of what the database can do is very generalized, so a lot ends up on the Crystal server.) This is particularly true if the Crystal server is not the same box as the database server; you don't want to pump huge volumes of data over the network! The downside to this is that some logic tends to get duplicated. This can be minimized by creating additional data (fields, tables, or aggregate tables) in the database, which are populated by one program (where the logic resides) and used by all of the reports. (For example, "definitions" based on data values should be table driven.)

Using Web Service a Data Source for my Report

Hi All,
I'm trying to use a Web service as a PDS for my Oracle9ias reports.
I have a few questions on this.
1) Can the webservice Return a Complex data type e.g java.util.Vector? If Yes, How does the report extract data frm the Vecor?
2) If the first option isn't feasible, Can I go for a array of objects as return values provided those objects are serializable?Again how would the report extract data from array of objects?
3) OR is it advisable to go for Document style web service that returns me an XML document?
Regards,
Ritesh

When overriding the data source for a report in RAS-Error Using CRAS2008sp3

ErrorCode:515 ErrorMsg:"This field name is not known.
Details: errorKind
ANy ideas.

Need a LOT more info. Version, service pack, dev language, windows or web app?
From the error mesage it indicates something has changed from the original data batabase table/filed info from what you are setting it too.
Try verifying the report manually to see if all your log on info and database are still the same.
Thank you

Data source for Deposit Advice (XML) and Live CheckWrite (XML) reports

Hello All,
We need to customize the Deposit Advice (XML) and Live Check Write(XML) reports to accomodate a few business requirements. We already have customizations for these reports in non-XML versions. For Ex: USPAYPST.rdf for Deposit Advice report. As these non-XML RDF reports are going to be unsupported by Oracle soon, we need to customize the XML versions of these report available in R12.1.3.
As these reports are kicked off by the PYUGEN spawned program, therefore I need information on the data source for these reports as soon as possible.
Looking forward to your prompt help.
Thanks,
Rahul

Now, I have anew problem here. I modified the USPAYPST.rdf report for Deposit Advice and then changed concurrent program output to XML from Text.
I attached a RTF template to the concurrent program to have the output in XML.
When I run Deposit Invoice Report from the SRS window, it finishes off normally and log file says the number of records processed but no output file is generated.
I also tried looking into the XML generated through View XMl and there too no output file is generated.
I am confused if the Deposit Advice program can only generate Text output. As PYUGEN is the executable for this report, I have no idea if XML file can even be generated.
All pointers to this issue are welcome.
Thanks,
Rahul
