Filtering Key Figures/Columns in a Cross Tab Component

Hello All,
I am creating a P&L Statement for Better/Worse comparisions, and I have to show only three columns at a time based on User Drop Down Selections.
Here is my Bex Query Out put looks like. The Rows part is "Structure" and Columns are "Cell Restrictions".
Now, the CrossTab component has to show only Two columns at a time, based on user selections. Here is my desired output. User will Select either ' Avg' Rate or 'End Rate'. Based on that selction, Actual's will show in the First Column and based on Selection from Second DROPDOWN for Budget/Forecast/PY, the Second Column has to be displayed.
Is there any DropDown Component or CrossTab Component Options are there to Filter the Columns based on User Selections ?
Appreciate your help. This is the Crucial Chart for the whole Dashboard.
Thanks,
Sonti.

Hi Tammy,
Thanks for your quick reply.
Can it be done dynamically without the User touching it ? My Cross Tab has to show values based on the Selctions. But, I couldn't find the code to restrict Cross Tab data.
I have to code for Dropdown box --> On Select, to check / Un check the KF's in the Filter Panel Component. And in Filter Panel Comoponent, --> On Select, DATASOURCE.setFilterExt("KF1", "KF2").
And assign the data source to Cross Tab.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Regards,
Sonti.

How to compare 2 columns in a cross tab

Hi,
I need some idea on how to compare 2 columns in a cross tab in Deski.
Original Table is like this:
Type..............ID...........Name
Type1............1............BO1
Type1............2............BO1
Type1............3............BO2
Type2............1............BO7
Type2............2............ --
Type2............3............BO5
I did Slice and dice to the original table and now it looks like a cross tab
......................1..............2............3
Type1.........BO1....... BO1.......BO2
Type2.........BO7........-- ...........BO5
Now I want to compare column 1&2, 1&3 and put these values in new columns after column 3 for Type1 & Type2
Does anyone has any idea on this?
Thanks,

1. Right click your table
2. Select Calculations -> Count
3. It will insert a new column. Edit this new column formula and substitute it with thos other formula:
=If ( <Name> Where (<ID>=1) = <Name> Where (<ID>=2) ) Then "Column 1 equal to column 2" Else "They're not Equal"
4.Put this title in that column's header:
Column 1 vs Column 2
5. Repeat steps for comparison between 1 and 3, just that this is the formula you have to use:
=If ( <Name> Where (<ID>=1) = <Name> Where (<ID>=3) ) Then "Column 2 equal to column 3" Else "They're not Equal"
Note: Apply necessary changes depending on what you need.

Can we apply sorting on Column values in Cross tab??

Can we apply sorting on Column values in Cross tab??
Following is the scenario with me.
I have 2 fields and one formula.
Fields are HostName and Username.
Formula is status which categorizes the Authorized and Unauthorized events.
And in the Summary Field, I am calculating the total number of events.
In cross tab, Fields are marking the Rows of the cross tab and Formula is making the Columns(Authorized and Unauthorized ) of the cross tab.
Since in cross tab data is grouped from left to right and sorted by default. I want to remove this default sorting and want to put sorting on the formula for Unauthorized events.
Is there any way to fulfill this requirement?

Hi,
You can assign a number to each Unauthorised field e.g
Rank   Unauthorised
1         A
2         BC
3         DF
5         TD
6         GF
Then add "Rank" to the crostab Columns before the Unauthorised field. Then you can control the sorting order on your crosstab.
Hope this helps

Setting Total Column width in Cross Tab report

I have set the width of the column and saved the report but when I am reopening the report the Total column width is expanded but rest of the data column width remains the same (which I saved). Any idea how to adjust the total column width?
TIA,

Sorting column name in cross tab

Hi Experts,
How to sort the column name in cross tab.Crystal is sorting alphabetically like
Apr 2013 Apr 2014 Aug 2013 Aug 2014 Dec 2013 Dec 2014 Feb 2013 Feb 2014 Jan 2013 Jan 2014............................so on

I am using crystal report 2013 version.
Kindly see the attached file

Hi Bharathiraja,
Instead of using a string field to display the month names, use a Date field as the column of the Crosstab.
You can then, highlight the column in the crosstab expert > Options > Options tab > check 'Customize group name field' > click the formula button beside 'formula' and use this code:
Totext({DATE field}, 'MMM yyyy')

How to create a title over the top of the left-most column in a cross-tab.

This is one of those things that seems simple until you try it.
I'm almost there. I moved the cross-tab from the report header to the report footer so I can have a page title. I tried using an overlay but it didn't work for any page past the first.
I can't seem to figure out how to put a title over the left-most column though.
Thanks in advance,
J

I have used a text box, after you type in the text, select the box, and move it to the front.
then select the crosstab and move it to the back.

Restricted Key Figure Column heading text missing

Hello,
I created a restricted Key Figure in a BEX report and dragged this RKF into the columns tab. when i execute the report , the column header text for the restricted key figure is missing. The values are fine, but the header column text for that KF is missing. any help?
Thanks
justin

Hi Justine...
I think u r doing something wrong..........Either u can create Global Restricted Key(Infoprovider level) or Local restricted ket figure(Query level)..........If u create Global........then in the left pane............Right click on the Keyfigure >> New restricted Key figure...........to create in the Query level..........In the context menu>> choose Edit........... or select the heading of the Rows or Columns directory
and use the right mouse button to choose New Structure..........In both the cases....there is a Description Field........u hav to write the description there............U can change the technical name also.........then save it........
May be it is a temporary bug............just come out the query..and again reopen it......

Date Formatting in Charts and Dynamic column resizing in Cross tabs

Hi All,
I am new to Design Studio, so am in desperate need of your help on the following:
Is there a way we can change the date format in x axis in charts?
For ex: Am getting dates as mm/yyyyy from BW but requirement is to show in yy-Mon
Requirement is to display data in cross tab just below the charts. How can I make the column widths in the cross tab the same as x-axis divisions in the chart? Also, this will be dynamic as depending on filter selection x axis scaling in charts will vary.
In cross tab, can I hide the column header?
Would really appreciate any kind of help from you.
Thanks & Regards
Swasti

HI Swasti,
To answer your first question, in Design Studio it's what you see is what you get! so it shows the Data Labels as it is in the BEx output, if you have to modify this you have to change it in the Background.
There might be CSS workarounds, but I am not sure if that will satisfy your requirements.
You can fix the Column width, but it would be constant, aligning that to your X-axis would require a lot of Effort.
You cannot hide the Column header directly, but one workaround would be to use a white BG text component to overlay on the Crosstab.

Display two different column types in cross tab

I am using Cross Tab template in crystal XI and I have to show two different column types one is of type int and other is of type string. Below is the format of the report
                              AmountGiven             Amount Spent            Attended
Mike                       5000                              3000                         Yes
Steve                     200                                 200                           No
Is there a way I can do this showing "yes" or "no" in the third column???
Thanks...

Hi
If you are trying to show "yes" or "no" for a column value in a cross tab, then yes we can try using a formula for it.
I would suggest you 2 ways that you can try at your end:
1.
a) Create a formula in the cross tab expert and write your condition.
for eg: if Sum({Orders.Order amount}) > 5000 then "yes" else "no"
b) Then select that formula in the summarized fields in cross tab expert and change the summary to MODE.
c) You can see the "yes" and "no" Within the same box.
2.
a) Add a field to the colums in the cross tab expert.
b) A column gets inserted in the cross tab.
c) Right click the field and select format field.
d) Go to Common tab and write a formula for the display string.
e) Write the condition in that formula.
f) You can see a new column with the expected values.
Hope this helps you..
Please revert incase of any queries.

Unwanted extra column in a cross-tab at run-time

Hi all,
        I have a question about using a cross-tab on a report. I have a web page with the report and for the cross-tab column data I have selected some data from an array I supply to the report. At run-time, when I call SetDataSource(data) for the report and look at the data there is only 2 items in the array for the column data. When the report is displayed the 2 column names and values from the data appear correctly on the cross-tab but I also have a third column. The third column has no name and has a value of 0.0.
The actual data I am associating with the column is the time member of the CategoryTime[]. Any ideas on what could be causing this?
public class ResourceActivity
        public string resourceName;
        public CategoryTime[] categoryTime;
public class CategoryTime
        public string categoryName;
        public float time;
Thanks in advance for any help
JohnN

John,
It sounds like there might be a null record returned and the crosstab is generating a column for it. You could try suppressing blank columns in the crosstab expert or filter out nulls in the record selection

Row and column heading in cross tab report

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to leave column headings and row headings in a crosstab report blank?
Pooja

Hi,
You could either suppress the Column Headings by unchecking
Tools-->Options-->Column Heading or Making the background color and the font color of the cell to be same ( gray ), thereby making it invisible, though it is actually there.
