Formating Invoice Date field to display in Japanese format 2012年2月22日

Hi ,
I need expert help in Crystal reports for formatting a field which contains date in Japanese format.
I need to develop a Japan report that has invoice date as 2012年2月22日 which means 22-Feb-2012.
Thanks,
Ravi

Thanks.. you saved my time.
I have found the solution for this issue
totext(year({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '年' & totext(month({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '月' & totext(day({shiphead.ShipDate}),0) & '日'
However your solution looks good. Short and sweet.
totext({shiphead.ShipDate}, 'yyyy年MM月dd日')
Thanks,
Ravi

Extract Year (only) from Date Field and Display in Text Field

I need to extract the year from a user entered date field and display the year in a text field. Can someone help me with the correct script to do this?

Hi,
that's quite easy to realize with FormCalc.
In you date fields exit event add the following code:
textField1 = Num2Date( Date2Num($.formattedValue, "MM/DD/YYYY"), "YYYY")
Note: This sample assumes that your date field formats the date with "MM/DD/YYYY". You may have to change the pattern to make it work at your end.

Solution Found
Don't install sp2it sucksclassic case of the cure being worse than the disease.
Downloading and installing the SP3 redisist fixed the issue.
This link is probably appropriate:
https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm
Software Product->select Crystal Reports
Version->select Crystal Reports 2008
important part
Software Type->Utility Click Search Download the redist install.
Not very intuitive, but you'll need to do this so you download the runtime and not the full version.
Hope that saves you the 5 hours it took me to figure this darn thing out...I hate unintuitive products--they aren't very professional.

SAP, where do I send the bill for supporting your own product?
I too have the same problem. Hopefully we can get a solution to this soon as the delayed release of the 2010 runtime has us in a difficult place.
The problem: I upgraded my project to Visual Studio 2010; therefore, I upgraded to the Crystal Reports for Studio 2010 beta.
Everything worked fine until I modified the app.config so that I could deploy the application into our test environment. We do not have Visual Studio installed in this environment, so we needed to have a Crystal Reports Runtime. According to the SAP website deployment guide, currently the only way to deploy a 2010 app is to use the 2008 runtime by modifying the app.config file to redirect the bindings.
__Now, none of my date fields appear on the reports.__
Just to test, in my development environment, I commented out the redirects in the app.config and the dates appeared. I uncommented the redirects so that the 2008 runtime would be used and then my dates disappeared from the report.
Here is the entry I put into the app.config:
<runtime>
    <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">

Invoice date field change- MIRO screen

HI all,
i want to check the field selection settings for invoice date (INVFO-bldat) on MIRO.
the user is getting default value as today's date. He wants a blank date
Please help

Do you mean " posting date " get default by today date? because in my system the posting date that getting default today date, not invoice date.
And event if the users get today date, he/she can still change it.so its not a big problem.
Blank or today's date--> user still need to fill in /write the posting date.

Blank or null date fields are displaying 1/1/1901

I have optional date fields that users may leave blank. When they do, the result is that my report is printing 1/1/1901 (which I am guessing is a default setting somewhere in the options???) Can anyone point me in the right direction so that if the field is null, the "text string" & doesn't print?
Here's the formula, maybe it's a fundamental problem with the way I've done the formula:
if totext({Command.SHIPDATE}) = ""
then ""
else "Needed by: " & {Command.SHIPDATE}
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is SHIPDATE a date type or text field? I an presuming a text field based on your example. If the date is defaulting to 1/1/1901, I am guessing that is a function of your database server rather than Crystal Reports. So I would alter your code to say:
if totext({Command.SHIPDATE}) = "1/1/1901"
then ""
else "Needed by: " & {Command.SHIPDATE}

Who notes you could also put the text and data object directly in the report and use a suppression formula instead of a report object formula...

Chinese Data Fields not displaying Chinese Characters

Hi There,
Wonder if someone can help. We are currently running reports in Crystal 8.5 but are in the process of upgrading our business systems to latest version and this includes converting all our Crystal 8.5 reports to Crystal Reports XI R2 SP4.
During the process we are experiencing some difficulties in displaying Chinese characters, which have previously worked fine in version 8.5. The system we are running Crystal from has Oracle client 11 installed and the OS system locale is set to Chinese PRC. Our application is displaying Chinese characters properly and if we have any text fields on the report, these are also displaying properly when changing Font to Arial Unicode MS. The only thing that doesn't display properly is the field data which after checking has the correct Chinese data stored in the database. For some reason Crystal 11.5 doesn't seem to be transferring the data correctly which points to some sort of encoding problem.
Is there something I am missing here or is there something else I need to install for this to work?
Any hep would be appreciated.

What is your Oracle database's language set? Is it set to UTF-8 or non UTF-8 (such as American_America.WE8ISO8859P1" )?
There is a similar issue tracked under ID ADAPT00528561 (Crystal cannot display non-UTF-8 Chinese characters from an Oracle database ) and has been fixed and you should set the following registry key to make it effective:
Set the following registry key "UseOSLocaleForConversion" to "Yes" under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\Database\Oracle

Date Field Display

How I can make the value of a Date field to display in Uppercases?
Thanks

The picture clause is what controls the format of the date that is being shown. I do not see an option to get the month or days capitalized. You would have to not use a date field but a TextField then you could capitalize the month or date using the functions for uppercase in javascript or formcalc.

Time/Date Field Not Returned in PDF

I have created a very simple form in LiveCycle Designer 8.0. The form enables the user to input data into columns labeled "name," "change type," and "change date." I used the date/time object for the "change date" row fields.
When my testers (using Acrobat 7.0) email the saved form back to me, all of the fields are populated with the information they entered, except the "change date" column fields. I asked if they used the flyout calendar or typed in the date manually, and all used the calendar.
Is this a compatibility issue, or is there something I need to do to bind the chose value to the field when the form is saved?

The issue with the time portion of date field not displaying in Data tab of a Table window has been posted before - see date format while browsing data
I still get the problem in v1215 connecting to either 9i or 10g databases. Note that this problem does not happen in the SQL Worksheet results area, so simply querying the table data with a select doesn't test this.
As for Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V changing the date format to MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS when copying data out of the SQL Worksheet Results - I also still get this in v1215.

Hyperlinks in table component? Data processing before display?

Hi all!
I have following problem to solve - I have some database tables I need to show on a page. Creating a DataProvider and using it works really fine even with parameters in my query.
But I have some columns with data that needs processing after fetching from data base (e.g. one colum has a value 20060925 with should be shown as date). Who can I do this - implementing my own data provider is the only thing I can think of.
Second, I need one column in my table to be a hyperlink, changing column type will do, but sometimes I would like a simple text (when there are no details to link to). Any ideas for this one?
Thanks in advance,
Jan

You can use the date time converter to display date. or then you can also use the sql function to format the date field before displaying...
for example, If you are using an Oracle database, use the SQL Timestamp converter instead.

Is anyone else having problems with Apertures Date fields?

After experiencing a sysems failure I began restoring my images from backups. I have had no end of problems with Image dates. I have come to the determination that Aperture is NOT using either the "Create Date" or "DateTimeOriginal" as the image "Date" or "Date Created" data if other fields have other dates.
Here is a clip from my image metadata using exiftool:
File Modification Date/Time     : 2012:09:23 19:53:15-04:00
File Access Date/Time           : 2013:01:16 11:34:38-05:00
File Inode Change Date/Time     : 2013:01:16 11:31:32-05:00
Create Date                          : 2006:02:20 11:51:12.10
Date/Time Original              : 2006:02:20 16:51:12.10
Modify Date                          : 2006:02:20 11:51:12.10
And here is what Aperture utilized on import
Date:                               9/23/12 7:53:15 PM EDT
Date Created                         9/23/2012 7:53:15 PM
So Aperture utlized the File Modification Date/Time as the Create Date despite that the fact that the Create Date field is present and is properly formatted in the original image.
According to the Aperture mapping table, this shouldn't be happening.
Now, before someone recommends that I use Aperture's Date Adjust utility - I'm talking about slightly over 30,000 images. Editing images one at a time, or in blocks when you don't know what field Aperture is using as the Create Date would require individual inspection of each image followed by manual adjustment of each image. That approach isn't acceptable.

Hmm ok, let me restate the issue then, I thought I was clear. I could have pointed out in my original post however, that only the EXIF and IPTC date fields were displayed from the metadata dump.
The data set presented in my first post is the EXIF dataset from the file which clearly shows the image was captured by digital camera at
Create Date                          : 2006:02:20 11:51:12.10
Date/Time Original              : 2006:02:20 16:51:12.10
(The delta of 5 hours is the result of Zulu versus local time offset)
But, when I ingested it into Aperture, the import routine utilized the IPTC field
File Modification Date/Time     : 2012:09:23 19:53:15-04:00
which is updated by the OS whenever you move the file around outside of Aperture. (a number of image data fields are updated by the OS - filename for example is another.). This resulted in the image date fields being stamped in Aperture as:
Date:                               9/23/12 7:53:15 PM EDT
Date Created                         9/23/2012 7:53:15 PM
Which obviously came form the File Modification Date/Time field and not (either) the Create Date or Date/Time Original fields.

Javascript for multiple date fields

Hi all-
I have to write javascript for 15 different date fields in a form.
The requirement here is that we convert all date fields on Page 100 from date pickers (editable date fields) to display-only date fields with two controls for the users to set the date.
If the field is empty (no date registered yet), there will be a green checkmark(X). When the user clicks this checkmark, the current date is entered into the field.
If the field is not empty (there is a date already in the system), there will be a red X. When the user click this red X, the date from the date field is removed.
The javascript I am using here is
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
     function init(){
          var datePickerVal = $v2('P100_TODAYS_DATE');
          if(datePickerVal){
               $x_Show('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateG');
          }else{
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Show('ToggleDateG');
     function toggleDateFunc(pValue){
          var sysDate = $v2('P100_DATE');
          if(pValue == 'R'){
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Show('ToggleDateG');
               $x_Value('P100_TODAYS_DATE','');
          }else if(pValue == 'G'){
               $x_Show('ToggleDateR');
               $x_Hide('ToggleDateG');
               $x_Value('P100_TODAYS_DATE',sysDate);
     window.onload = init;
</script>
This javascript is working for one date field( 'P100_TODAYS_DATE') but i have 15 different date fields in this page(100) all should have same funtionality. Please help me out how to write a logic to use this function for all the date fields.
Thanks,(apex 3.2)

Hi,
You can do the needful by re-using the code if you can give the item names as P8_DATE1, P8_DATE_hh1, P8_DATE2, P8_DATEhh2 etc..So your item name just differs by a sequence.
Now you write function which will return desired date value taking above items as input. Pass item names to this function, get session state using APEX_UTIL.GET_SESSION_STATE('item_name') API.
Now modify you code as
FOR i IN 1..30
LOOP
v_date_array[i] = f_get_date('P8_DATE'||i, 'P8_DATEhh'||i);
END LOOP;
....Now you have all date valus in array. Just write one update as follows
UPDATE TABLE1
SET date1 = my_date_array[1], date2 = my_date_array[2]..
WHERE ....Hope it helps :)
Cheers,
Hari

Backdated PO receipt and Invoice date in closed periods_Dropshipment

The Business requirement is
The OU gets the Bill of Lading/Air Way Bill document offline after some time let's say within 10 days of actual Bill of Lading/Airway Bill Date. We are executing Dropshipment process. The PO receipt to be done on back date, which is the actual Bill of Lading/Air Way Bill date. The AR Invoice to be raised on the same backdated actual Bill of Lading/Air Way Bill date.
Example:
Actual Bill of Lading/Air Way Bill date: 25 Apr 2012
The documents are received on date: 05 May 2012
Dropship PO Receipt Date: 25 Apr 2012 (We will execute backdated receipt in system, on 05 May 2012 the receipt date will be entered as 25 Apr 2012)
AR Invoice Date (after Auto-import program): 25 Apr 2012
We are able to get the desired result in the open period. Just wondering, how to go about the issue when periods are closed for the last month (April).
Heard that, the profile option INV:Transaction Date Validation doesn't work in case of PO receipts. Kindly advise.
With Best Regards,
Nirabh Nayan

Hi,
Once a Inv a/c period is closed, the period close process permanantly closes the period and system will not let performing any further transactions in that closed period. period can not be reopened as well.
If you know that there are pending transactions to be made in the last month of a/c year, As an exception you can keep the last period open till all the transactions are entered into the system. Normally this is the general process followed across. Accounting period is not closed sharply on the final day of the acct period.
If you are worried about std cost update and want to have updated costs for the transactions done in new a/c year, You can enter the cut off date in the inv org parameters as the last date of previous accounting period so that the transactions of the first month of new accounting period ( in your case May ) does not get costed. Once you close the previous period, you can update the cost thru std cost update and then release the cut off date for the new period transactions to get costed at updated cost.

Report displays date field on server as timestamp, despite format

I formatted a date field in my report as 01/03/2009.
This looks ok when testing in Crystal Reports.
On the server the date displays as 01/03/2009 12:00:00 AM.
I really want to get rid of the time, as it doesn't fit in the report.
I noticed that in an older report the field of the same date is typed as timestamp. In this case the server display correctly.
The problem is, I cannot figure out how/why the date is typed differently in the 2 reports, e.g. date vs timestamp.
Help!?

Ah, that explains it. Some JDBC drivers handle date field types differently.
Be sure you are using the latest JDBC jars from Oracle and make sure you have the correct Java path in the PATH statement.
Other than that it is likely a limitation of the driver itself.
Try using the native Oracle driver in the database wizard and see if you get the same results.
And as suggested go into the Report Options and see if any of the those switches help. Also right click on the field and select Format and see if those option also help you.
Thank you

Change Display Format of Date Field

Hi,
How can I change the display format of a date?
When the field is displayed as a DateField the data format is good, but can I change the format? The problem with a DateField is also that the field can be updated and that shouldn't be possible.
When the field is displayed as a DisplayField the format looks worse. It looks like it's doing a toString from a Data variable.
Could someone tell me what is the best way to Display a Date from the database? The users shouldn't be allowed to change the value.
Thanx

Use something like this:
<messageDateField name="Birthdate" promptAndAccessKey="Birthdate" data:text="Birthdate" anchor="Birthdate" persistent="true" dataObject="uNextMonthsBirthdaysSet" data:value="Birthdate" data:readOnly="isViewing">
<onSubmitValidater>
<date dateStyle="shortish"/>
</onSubmitValidater>
</messageDateField>
