GetPeach Functions in Crystal Reports 10

Post Author: crows4hire
CA Forum: Formula
There are an array of custom functions for the Peachtree Accounting software available in the formula editor... however, I can find no guide to their usage online nor in the Peachtree knowledgebase. In fact, their tech support line will not even discuss Crystal! I am specifically interested in the functions that look like they gather information from the AuditTrail table. Using standard .DDFs, this table is inaccesible for reporting. Does anyone know how to utilize these goodies?

For both the field background and font color, you can supply a formula that returns the color to use, by pressing the X+2 button next to the setting in the Field Formatting dialog box.  When you do that, the comments that are displayed tell you the values to use for the various colors.

  • How to use oracle functions in Crystal Reports XI using Oracle Server

    Hi all,
    Is it possible  to use oracle functions in Crystal Reports XI using Oracle Server as Data Source.
    If i try to use a procedure,i am getting error with message "Invalid Arguement Provided".
    Functions are not visible objects like tables,views and stored procedures.
    The  jdbs driver i m using is oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.

    I think it is not possible to add functions in crystal directly for any database. You need to use those functions in a stored procedure and add that storedprocedure as a datasource.

  • How to implement the Oracle Group by function in Crystal reports?

    Hi all,
    In SQL, for example we have a group function like:
    select  district,state, country, continent, sum(no.of people) from world.
    Now, How to implement this group function in crystal reports? Please advise.
    Thanks in advance..
    Regards,
    sriram

    Hi Vinay,
    Thanks for the prompt reply.
    In one of our report, we are supposed to perform group by for 14 columns to get sum of 3 columns and there by displaying 17 columns in the report.
    When we tried in crystal reports to implement this oracle group by functionality:
    1. We created 14 groups from the Insert->Group option.
    2. By performing this, we got 14 group sections vertically(one inside the other).
    3. Then we created the sum(15th column),sum(16th column), sum(17th column)  by Insert->Summary option.
    4. We suppresed all the group sections except for the last group.
    5. Then, dragged all the groups to the last group section along with the summary fields.
    This is how, we tried to acheive the oracle group by function in Crystal reports.
    Please advise, whether our approach is right. If not, please suggest the appropriate approach with a bit detailed explanation.
    Thanks,
    Sriram.

  • Unable to connect to "SAP Table, Cluster, or Function" in Crystal reports.

    I cannot connect to "SAP Table, Cluster, or Function" in Crystal reports. The system gives such an error: Database Conection Error: Functional module "/CRYSTAL/GET_OSQL_OBJECT_LIST" not found.
    Did anyone get this error? What can't be wrong with my system?

    Hi Sergey,
    you must import some transports in your SAP R/3 system before you can access its tables. Have a look at the documentation of the int.KIT for SAP.
    The transports are normally to be found in the install directory of your server installation of the BOBJ int.KIT for SAP. In the documentation is easy to identify those which must be imported depending on the system's type and version.

  • Questions on the functionality of Crystal Reports 2011

    Dear all ,
    i recently got in contact with Cyrstal Reports and have to conduct an analysis about its functionalities and possibilites.
    I have some questions which could not be answered using internet research and would be very happy if some of you (who are certainly more experienced) could give me some short answers on them.
    1. I know that you need SAP NetWeaver in order to run Business Objects Analyits for MS Offic, but do i need the NetWeaver application also for Cyrstal Reports (CR) ? In my case I have an Oracle database and have not the possibility to change to a Netweaver data warehouse
    2. I have a PPT Master document (with predefined action titles, headings etc.). Is it possible to create my charts with CR and then automatically integrate them in my Powerpoint Master? I know that CR can create .png (and other) but I want that the user can change the diagram in powerpoint (e.g. changing colours)
    Is that possible ?
    3. When having a direct connection to Powerpoint, is there a way that i can identify updated graphics ? I´m thinking of some kind of red dot that symbolized users that this graphic has changed.
    4. Is there a way to integrate CR directly in PPT that users have the possibility to create reports in PPT or do I always have to use the CR interface?
    Would be very happy if you just could give me some brief answers on the questions cause I have not much experience in the field (as my questions already indicate Wink )
    Thanks and Greetings,
    Dan

    Good afternoon.  I have attempted to address your questions below.  Please review my answers and let me know if you need more details.

    Crystal Reports does not require SAP NetWeaver in order to function. In fact, Crystal Reports is a desktop tool used to create reports. You can then publish those reports to the SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform, embed them in custom applications, or view them directly via a desktop viewer (or in another format).
    2. I have a PPT Master document (with predefined action titles, headings etc.). Is it possible to create my charts with CR and then automatically integrate them in my Powerpoint Master? I know that CR can create .png (and other) but I want that the user can change the diagram in powerpoint (e.g. changing colours)
    Is that possible ?
    It is possible to integrate Crystal Reports content directly into Microsoft Office documents by using the SAP BusinessObjects LiveOffice tool.
    3. When having a direct connection to Powerpoint, is there a way that i can identify updated graphics ? I´m thinking of some kind of red dot that symbolized users that this graphic has changed.
    This is not possible "out of the box", but may be possible via some custom addon.
    4. Is there a way to integrate CR directly in PPT that users have the possibility to create reports in PPT or do I always have to use the CR interface?
    Please see the answer above for #2.

  • Using a SQL user-defined function in Crystal Reports XI

    Post Author: JoannKarp
    CA Forum: Formula
    Is it possible to use a user defined function in SQL and use this in multiple Crystal reports?
    JoannKarp

    SELECT COALESCE(ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,712),ufn_GetAddressByBusinessEntityIDandAddressTypeID(table1.BusinessEntityID,712)) AS Zipcode
      FROM table1
    Nope. This is two function calls. coalesce(a, b, c, ...) is just syntatic sugar for
       CASE WHEN a IS NOT NULL THEN a
            WHEN b IS NOT NULL THEN b
            WHEN c IS NOT NULL THEN c
       END
    But if you use isnull it's a different matter. (But isnull() permits two arguments.)

  • Using Sql Functions in Crystal Reports

    Can SQL table-valued functions be used in Crystal Reports?  The only options I see in the Database Expert are Tables, Views, and Stored Procedures.

    Hi Dan,
    Are you referring to user-defined SQL functions? If yes, then these are not accessible in Crystal Reports.
    You would need to create a stored procedure which calls the function and does the processing and use this procedure in CR.

  • How to pass parameters to ABAP function in Crystal report

    Hi All,
    I am creating a Crystal report on top of SAP ECC 6.0. I am trying to call ABAP functions. But I am not able to see an option to pass any parameters to the function.
    Can you please help with how to pass a parameter to a ABAP function?
    Thanks
    Chetan

    Hi there,
    we thought we found the problem. But the ABAP function is now RFC compatible and i still do not see the export parameters of the ABAP function in Crystal.
    Question: The ABAP function does not deliver columns as the result but a table instead. Could this be the problem? Regarding to this we will have to change the output functinality of the ABAP-function to teliver colums instead of a table.
    Thanks for your help,
    regards

  • How to call C++ function in Crystal report

    Hi,
    i am working on serious issue now, i need some help, Could you please tell me how can i call my C++ method in crystal report designer (may be formula editor), i can see only this support VB and Crystal basic.
    Regards,
    Prabhakar J.

    Hi Prabhakar,
    The name of the UFL dll must begin with U2L. Rename your and if it's compile properly CR should find it when loading all of it's dependencies.
    Check the developers help file and search for Custom User Function Library.
    I should also mention that UFL's only support MBCS string formats so if you define them they must be defined this way or CR will have problems passing them from/to your UFL. CR uses UNICODE format internally but the UFL bridge will thunk them to MBCS format on the way out and expect that format on the way in. There is a possibility of data loss in the conversion routines.
    Thank you

  • Can I have a SQL statement in a Custom Function in Crystal Reports 2008

    I'd like to create a custom Crystal Reports function which does a database lookup. Is this possible? In the pseudo code below "v_le_afe_xref" is a dataource in the report.  A syntax check fails on the select.
    Function legal_entity_co (old_co AS number) AS number
    SELECT v_le_afe_xref.NEW_BURKS FROM v_le_afe_xref WHERE old_co = v_le_afe_xref.OLD_BURKS
    END FUNCTION
    Thanks.

    Hi David,
    Not sure where you are trying to use the function but CR doesn't support Functions directly, this changes so try Service PAck 3 to see if it's been added. Try using a SQLExpression, and do not include a SELECT in the SQL or using a Command Object.
    You may be able to define it on the server and then call it from CR using a Command also.
    Thank you

  • Could i change the built in search functionality of crystal report?

    Hello,
    I want to change the search functionality available in crystal report. Now if i find some text or number it will highlight the first occurance of that text or number, i want it to change so that it will highlight all the occurances of that text or number in the whole report.      
    Could i do that? if yes, then how? please tell me how to achieve my required functionlity.  
    Thanks

    Maybe I am confused but I think I have a formula that does what you are in need of. I am conditionally formatting a description field by right clicking on the field and selecting format field. The I have the following formula set under "border tab"
    if "pcb" in ({F4101.IMDSC1})then crred
    else if "dialplate" in ({F4101.IMDSC1})
    then cryellow
    else crnocolor
    This highlights every line which contains my formula or search criteria.
    I hope this is what you was looking for.

  • Zoom functionality with Crystal reports server

    Hello,
    in crystal report there's a great functionality to zoom in a diagram. Is this functionality also available when I start the report within InfoView (Crystal Reports Server 2008) ?
    regards,
    Silvia

    in Crystal Reports Designer you can 'zoom in' a diagram, when you right click the mouse and choose this option, but I can't see this option, when I start the report within InfoView.
    There's a big difference between choosing this option and zooming the entire report !!

  • Passing parameters (range) to ABAP function from Crystal report

    Hello experts,
    Iu2019ve created an ABAP function which receives parameters from a Crystal report . It works very well with simple parameters.
    In my crystal report I can see the fields with the prefix u201CI_u201D in the field explorer, and I can use this fields  in my Function Modules perfectly.
    The problem is to pass parameters like range or multiples values.
    I would like to know how to put this parameters into the low and high values of the range and receive them in my Function Module in the ABAP layer.

  • Where is the Manage Object function in Crystal Reports 2013 for the CMC?

    I recently upgraded to Crystal Reports 2013 after upgrading our Crystal Reports server to SAP Business Objects Platform 4.1. Before the upgrade, I could publish reports from Crystal Reports XI to the CMC then right-click on the report title in the Repository Explorer (in Crystal Reports) and I had the option to select Manage Object where I could set the default settings for the CMC. I am not seeing this option in the new version of Crystal Reports. Is there something I need to do to see this option or has this option been removed from Crystal Reports 2013?

    Hi Kelley,
    You're right, the option doesn't exist in CR XI R2 and above.
    All the options now need to be set in CMC.
