Forcing a Group Header to Print

Post Author: despec
CA Forum: General
I'll tell you, CR really can be very difficult to play with.  I have two files--one a Milestone File, another an Assignment File...The one-to-many is from the Milestine file to the Assignment file.  I am grouping on a milestone key and printing that group header with associated assignments for that milestones.  That works just fine, BUT...when there are no assignments associated with that milestone, the group header does not print and I need it to.  Is there aany way of doing this?

  • Restrict Repeating frame header to print once per page

    is there any way I can restrict the repeating group header to print only once per page, inspite of the fact that the group has now changed ??

    Hi,
    There is an option in Frame properties -> Show objects in -> you can choose first page so that the objects will be displayed in the first page.
    What do you mean by 'group has now changed'?

  • Forcing a new page and using CAN GROW in a group header section??

    Two Questions:
    1) Is it possible to force a new page at any given position of the report?
    I have a summary report with drill downs.  My problem is that the vendor name and address (group 3 which is split into 3 subgroups GH3a GH3Bb GH3c) is sometimes at the end the page and the rest of the information (detaila and detail b with GFs) continue on the next page.
    Can I specify a specific time or position when to page so that if this happens I can make the vendor name print on the next page?
    I know of the keep group together option in the section expert but that keeps the detail together with the group heading - which is not the problem I am trying to resolve.
    2) Can the group header and group footer sections be set to CAN GROW?
    Thank you,
    JS

    If a field exists in a section and the field is set to can grow, the section will grow with the field.
    CR2008 allows you to page after X number of records in the details section. See section expert, paging tab (Details Section)
    If you are not using CR2008 you could calculate the number of records per group and new page after this based on the number of records.

  • How to print Group Header on page break in a subreport - CR XI

    Post Author: rickcf
    CA Forum: General
    I have a subreport that has 3 groups with only one group that has a heading.  When the report prints and a subreport group is split between two pages (on a page break) I would like the group heading to also print again at the top of the page- even with the word "continued..." also.  Right now only the main report page header prints.  How can I do this since there is no page header in a subreport?
    Thanks

    Is there any way to test during detail processing time to see if a page break is occuring?  If so I could print out a fake header on the detail line, suppressing it only if the page breaks.  That is the only thing I can come up with to solve the issue.
    I am surprised the is not an option to reprint the group header on a page break.  That seems like a needed option and that is the standard in Foxpro reporting - there is a checkbox option to cover this scenario.
    A coworker did find a workaround to add a psudo page header to a subreport so if I can add that and put my group info in there it will also work.  I have not looked at the code yet though.
    I have another issue I am working on so this one might take a while to get back to.

  • Not inserting Group Header

    Post Author: luvthehawks
    CA Forum: Publishing
    Crystal is not inserting the group header when I insert a new group. Itu2019s the same in a new or existing report.
    INSERT
    GROUP
    (Select field for new group)
    OK
    Crystal does insert a new group, but does not insert the group header field. If I insert the field into the blank group header, I canu2019t sort by the group.
    I have been using Crystal Reports for some time, with no problems with inserting group header. This problem is new since I got a new computer. (Coincidence?)

    "Why group header will not repeat on pages that are printing the just the group footer.
    Have you some tricks to forced the printing of group header on a new page ?"
    You can set the group header to NEW PAGE BEFORE, but if the group footer spans more than one page, the header will not repeat. It is just the way it is.
    Try setting the group header to new page before and put the info from group header in the page header-see how that works for you.

  • Repeat Group Header On Each Page with Underlay Following Sections

    How to overcome the following problem?
    1. I am using Crystal report 13.0.5.891
    2. I have designed the report with Group Header as [Underlay following section]
    3. I have checked the group to repeat on each page
    4. Number of lines in the group header may vary
    5. Number of lines in details may also vary
    My objective is to print the separator line placed in group footer, after the
    header lines or after the detail lines which one is taking the maximum lines.
    This is not happening, and I am getting the following output, which is not meeting my requirement
    Where the "LINE IN GROUP FOOTER" should appear after "Group 1 Header Line 6" in the second page
    as the report ends there, but in the output, the line is coming just after the end of detail record.
    like following
    As a result of this, the next record of the group is overlapping with the first record and creating a mesh
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PAGE 1 OF 2
    Column Heading 1                       Column Heading 2                      Column Heading 3
    Group 1 Header Line 1                 Detail Record 1 Line 1
    Group 1 Header Line 2                 Detail Record 1 Line 2
    Group 1 Header Line 3                 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Group 1 Header Line 4                 Detail Record 2 Line 1
    Group 1 Header Line 5                 Detail Record 2 Line 2
    Group 1 Header Line 6                 Detail Record 2 Line 3
                                                      Detail Record 2 Line 4
                                                      Detail Record 2 Line 5
    ======================LINE IN GROUP FOOTER========================
    PAGE BREAK
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ PAGE 2 OF 2
    Column Heading 1                       Column Heading 2                      Column Heading 3
    Group 1 Header Line 1                    Detail Record 3 Line 1
    Group 1 Header Line 2                    Detail Record 3 Line 2
    Group 1 Header Line 3                    Detail Record 3 Line 3
    Group 1 Header Line 4                    Detail Record 3 Line 4
    ======================LINE IN GROUP FOOTER========================
    Group 1 Header Line 5
    Group 1 Header Line 6
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for you response.
    I have updated the crystal report to 13.0.13.1597.
    Still I am getting the same issue. I am generating the report in PortableDocFormat and exporting the byte array to download from the web browser. The application is developed in ASP.NET 2012 .net version 4.5.
    I am also uploading 2 images of the final pdf that I am getting, for your opinion.
    The report appeared in the first image is ok, where the first group has 2 child records and the second group has 1 child, but whenever I am changing the mapping in the database, where the first group has 1 child and second group has 2 child, my report is not working. as it is clear from the second image
    Also after installing the new version of CR, my existing codes are not working, and giving the following exception in the line where ExportToStream is written.
    Unable to cast object of type 'FileStreamDeleteOnClose' to type 'System.IO.MemoryStream'.
    I have modified the existing code to overcome this exception.

  • How to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?

    Hi
    Is there any way to repreat only Group Header #2b in all pages?
    When I select repeat group header in all pages, it repeating Group Header #2a & Group Header #2b.
    how to repeat only Group Header #2b?
    Thank you

    You can conditionally suppress group headers.
    Set the headers to repeat on each page, and then to have group header 2a only printed once while group header2b repeats on all pages then contionally suppress group header 2a with
    inrepeatedgroupheader  // suppresses repeated headers
    Note you can also suppress a header the first time header is printed with
    not(inrepeatedgroupheader)  //suppresses the first time

  • Running Total in Group Header

    Post Author: bahamaER
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Hello, I have been reviewing threads for running totals and would like some assistance on creating a running total for a group with a condition that will display in the group header, the running total should also reset for each group. Is this possible?
    I know that there are some constraints such as the variable being reset to 0 in the header for each group as well as the group records have not been rendered when the header formulas are being assessed. I have been able to accomplish the task of running totals with conditions for groups using a running total field and also 3 separate formulas placed in the group header, detail and footer. The display is only correct in the group footer; my goal is to have the footer formula in the group header.  Any ideas?  I am currently using CR 8.5 but will be upgrading to CR 2008.
    Thankyou

    Hi,
    If you are trying to calculate Total and display it in Group Header for field value placed in Detail, then you will get incorrect/no value for total, as Crystal Reports prints/processes the report line by line and it will not be able to process the Total for field in Detail section in Group Header.
    Its is by Design.
    For a workaround:
    - Insert the same probematic report (Say A.rpt) as a Subreport in Group Header of this report(Say A.rpt).(Say in GroupHeader A1) and link the Main Report to the
    - Insert Section Below (Say GroupHeader A2)
    - Calculate Total in Section Group Header A2)
    This workaround will reduce the Performance of the report as Subreport will be proceed for each Group Value.

    Kiran

    I think you messed up the feature.xml
    What steps did you take?
    The only thing that you had to do where the following two steps
    -  edit the schema.xml of the customlist.
    Basiccly remove two times this line of code and save it
    <GetVar Name="GroupByField" HTMLEncode="TRUE" /><HTML><![CDATA[</a> :&nbsp;]]></HTML>
    - uninstall and install the feature 
    stsadm -o uninstallfeature -name CustomList -force
    stsadm -o installfeature -name CustomList
    I did the first step for you and zipped the feature you can get it here replace the one you have with this one and install and uninstall the feature
    good luck

  • How to display the last value of a field in a group in the group header

    I need to display the last quiz score from a group of quiz scores as part of the header of a group of units (the quiz score values are in the detail record).  I can not use the group footer, which would be the natural place to find the last value.  It must be in the group header because there will be a subsequent group within the unit group.  In other words, the grouping is as follows:
    Unit Group Header (Display last quiz score in unit)
    SubUnit Group Header (Display other detail summaries)
    Detail Record (including quiz score)
    SubUnit Group Footer
    Unit Group Footer
    While there is a minimum/maximum summary function, there is not a first/last function.
    Fuskie
    Who is constantly amazed at the ability of users to request report features that are not easily implented through Crystal Reports...

    Hi Fuskie,
    One suggestion to display the last quiz score in the Group Header, other than what had already been suggested, will be to use a linked subreport in the Group Header. It is not an efficient way to display the information, but it could do the trick.
    Another suggestion will be to insert a subreport in the report header, then store the last quiz score in an array for each group, then share it with the main report and display the  values in the appropriate group. In this way it will only connect twice to the data source, one for the main report and once for the subreport, instead of multiple connection for each group.
    Finally, the most efficient way will be to have this value calculated on the database side using a command object or a stored procedure.

  • Data Concatenation - Looking to have result in the Group header

    Dear all,
    Few months ago, I try to concatenate cells under a Group,
    I succeed using the formula gave by Raghavendra 
    Initialize:
    whileprintingrecords;
    stringvar i:="";
    Place the above formula in group header and suppress group header section.
    evaluate:
    whileprintingrecords;
    stringvar i;
    i:=i", "name field;
    Place the above formula in detail section and suppress the details section.
    display:
    whileprintingrecords;
    stringvar i;
    country field" - "i;
    Place the above formula in group footer and right click go to format field and check the option "can grow" in common tab.
    My today issues is that I'm still looking for concatenation but I need it in the Header of the Group, not in the footer
    As far as I understood
      - Crystal Report is reading line by Line, so I can't retrieve the value in the Header before the value are calculate.
      - Moreover I've issue on initialize the value
    I thougth an GlobalVar Array can work, but I can't find the way to do it
    My request is, I've have this DataSet
    Paris | Louvre
    Paris | Eiffel
    Sydney | Opéra
    I'm looking Group on City to have in the Header, the value concatened
    Paris | Louvre, Eiffel
    Sydney | Opéra
    Thanks in advance

  • Supress Group Header in Report when Subreport is blank

    well the title says it all.
    I want to supress the main report group header when the subreport (is in details) is blank.
    I'm stuck on this:
    I'v created a shared variable in both report and subreport and it gives me the number I want but not where I wanted to appear. If I put the variable on the group footer it shows me the correct value but if I put it in the group header it shows me the previous group footer result.
    This is what I got:
    Group Header
    Client 1
    Shared Variable=0
    Details
    Contract 01
    Contract 02
    Group Footer
    Shared Variable=2
    Group Header
    Client 2
    Shared Variable=2
    Details
    Group Footer
    Shared Variable=0
    This is what I want:
    Group Header
    Client 1
    Shared Variable=2
    Details
    Contract 01
    Contract 02
    Group Footer
    Shared Variable=2
    Group Header
    Client 2
    Shared Variable=0
    Details
    Group Footer
    Shared Variable=0
    Can I do that?
    Edited by: Pedro Pinto on Jul 29, 2008 2:47 PM

    I'm going to try my best. This is what I get:
    Main Report
    Group Header
    Client 01   --    0->shared variable
    Details
    Subreport 1
    Group Footer
    2->Shared Variable
    In subreport for client 01:
    Detailsa
    Contract 01
    Contract 02
    Detailsb
    Total of contracts = 2->Shared Variable
    Main Report
    Group Header (supress this section)
    Client 02   --    2->shared variable
    Details
    Subreport 1
    Group Footer
    0->Shared Variable
    In subreport for client 02:
    Detailsa
    Detailsb
    Total of contracts = 0->Shared Variable
    For Client 03 it doesn't show anything but if Client 04 if it has contracts it only shows the contracts but not the name of the client.
    I've already did supress when is blank but in the details.
