Post Author: deltaXI
CA Forum: General Feedback
Hi i am pretty new in CR. I have a report which is grouped in 5 levels. ie.when we view the report we get the higher level view then you have to drill down to each of the levels. the grouping and drill down is working perfectly.I need to insert charts in the drilled down pages. but wherever i insert the charts [i tried putting it in group headers and footers] it gets shown on the very first page of the report without drilling down. I want it to be shown only when drilled down Please helpThanks in advance

Hi Ricky.....
Chart waise Graphical Representation is given by SAP and it can be easily done in XCelcius.
All you need to do is you have to create your own report and put this report in XCelcius.
It is recently launched.....

Line Chart cannot drill down on legends and lines

I am doing a drill down Group report which will show the Sum of Last year's Sales By Country, State and city over a period of time(by date) for throughout the year 2007. Every group will have a line chart with Data title as Sum of Last year's Sales ($), Group Title as Date and legends displaying countries (or states or cities) as USA,UK,Australia. etc.. I have same sort of line chart for State and City as well. So, I got 3 levels of groups with a line-chart displayed in every group level.
Now, the problem is my drill down would not work on chart lines or legends as it would do for a 2-dimensional data chart like a bar-chart or pie-chart. In the Chart Expert->Data->Layout:Group ->in the On Change Of event selection I am able to specify either Sales.Country (or) Sales.country and Sales.Sales.State. Both options would not let me get the correct linechart with correct data and drill-down working as well.
The only work-around i got is to display the line chart with legends and showing the Country(or State or City) names in a field in the Group Footer. The drilling will work on those fields, but not on the legends or lines of the line chart. This make my report showing the Country names twice once on legend (with no drill-down) and once on group-footer(with drilling ability to groups below) which is untidy.
Have anyone tried to make a drill-down crystal report on a 3-dimensional data like this? The World Sales report in Crystal reports C:\Program...\BO\Samples\General Business\World Sales Report is the best example of how i would like to see my charts to drill down. However, they drill down across a 2-dimensional data. I am publishing this Crystal Reports in Business Objects Infoview.

Group Description in Drill down and grouping on field

I want to put a formula field for grouping, but I want to display some text(description) in group drill down.
My group field is numeric and I want to display text on right side of drill down report.

Hi Seema,
In order to display a different group name you may try the below steps:
- Right click on the group and click on change Group option and then click on Options taband then check the box which says 'Customize Group Name Field'.
- Now either 'choose from existing field' or 'use a formula as group name' to display the group description.
This would help you to display the appropriate description for that field.

Conditional Formatting for Charts in Drill down - Disappears

Hi All,
I have a "Vertical Bar Chart" that is plotted against Time on Y-axis and Unit on the X-axis; it has drill feature selected.
The chart also has conditional format specified and the color of the Vertical bar will change on a condition. Eg: The bar will show Red color if the Average Time taken is more than 60 minutes for an Appliance Unit. All this works fine.
Problem
As the chart has Drill feature enabled I can drill down on the chart say from Year - > Month -> Day. The issue is the conditional formatting disappears when you drill down the chart.
It looks strange as the main chart shows Red color for a Unit and when you drill down I don't see the conditional format applied any more.
Did anyone had similar problem, is there any work around here.
Appreciate your help.
Regards
B

Hi,
Create a dummy column and in fx write this,
Case when Table."Average Time" >60 then 0 else 1 end
Add this also in th part of chart axis,
Go to conditional formatting set the formatting on the dummy column when 0 set to Red color.
Now you will have the conditional formatting even if you drill down.
Thanks,
Vino

Wow. That post almost made my eyes bleed. You may want to add some white space for readability.
Anyways - as Falk said. You should move or re-post this in the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum. They specialize in this sort of thing. Us dev guys here make sure we can see the chart without errors and don't do much beyond that.

Drill down pie chart using SVG

Having read several posts in this forum regarding SVG, pie charts and drilling down, I get the impression that it is possible, using the "link" column in the chart query, to drill down to another page.
My requirement is similar in that given a pie chart, the user can click on one of the sections of the pie and see more detail in another pie chart. The difference is that the page should not change (ie: other graphics and content ought not change when the pie chart is clicked).
Has anyone worked out a solution for something like this?
Is it, for example, possible to, on clicking the pie chart, have a conditional display set for a previously hidden chart and hide the original chart?
Your replies are appreciated.

I just re-read this and realize you want it on the same page. Same logic applies. Create a hidden item, a second chart region taking in the parameter from the first, and set it to show only when the hidden item is not null.
Let me know what you think:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=20332:1
Code for the first chart is:
select 'f?p='||:APP_ID||':1:::::P1_DRILLDOWN:'||cu.customer_id,
       cu.cust_first_name || ' ' || cu.cust_last_name,
       count(ord.order_id)
from demo_orders ord,
       demo_customers cu
where cu.customer_id = ord.customer_id
group by 'f?p='||:APP_ID||':1:::::P1_DRILLDOWN:'||cu.customer_id,
cu.cust_first_name || ' ' || cu.cust_last_name2nd Chart:
select null,
       product_name,
       count(ite.product_id)
from demo_orders ord,
       demo_order_items ite,
       demo_product_info pro
where ord.order_id = ite.order_id and
       ite.product_id = pro.product_id and
       ord.customer_id = :P1_DRILLDOWN
group by product_nameModify as necessary.

Drill-down using chart swapping or overlaying

I am working on a pie chart which supports drill-downs. The
idea is that when a user clicks on a chart sector a column chart is
shown on top of the pie chart showing further distribution of
values in the selected sector.
My question is what is the right way to implement this kind
of pie chart supporting drill-downs?
Should I define both charts in MXML and then dynamically make
one invisible and the other one visible? How do I swap the charts?
Any sample code will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Adding Checksum To Drill Down Chart

I have created a chart that drills down to a report when the user clicks on a bar in the chart.
I have now changed my pages so a checksum is required.
When I click on a bar in the chart, I get a checksum error.
How do I add a checksum to the link in the chart ?
Gus

I thought I would provide some more information.
The original code for my chart was
SELECT 'f?p='|| :APP_ID ||':29:'|| :APP_SESSION ||'::::P29_GARRISON:'||GARRISON LINK,
GARRISON, SUM(ACTUAL_STR+DEP_ADULT+DEP_CHILD) POPULATION
FROM PS_ALL_DATA
WHERE G_CODE <> 3
GROUP BY GARRISON
ORDER BY GARRISONThis worked until I added checksum required for pages.
I created a Before Header and a hidden item to hold the url
DECLARE
    l_url varchar2(2000);
BEGIN
    l_url := APEX_UTIL.PREPARE_URL(
        p_url => 'f?p=&APP_ID.:29:&APP_SESSION.::::P29_GARRISON:',
        p_checksum_type => 'SESSION');
:P1_CHART_LINK := l_url;
END;Then I changed to code of my chart to
SELECT ':P1_CHART_LINK:'||GARRISON LINK,
GARRISON, SUM(ACTUAL_STR+DEP_ADULT+DEP_CHILD) POPULATION
FROM PS_ALL_DATA
WHERE G_CODE <> 3
GROUP BY GARRISON
ORDER BY GARRISONNow when I click on my chart I get Page Not Found
Any ideas appreciated

Drill-Down from several Charts to Same Target

Hi,
we have built a dashboard with 3 (soon to be 6) column charts and one line chart below. The colum charts represent 6 KPIs aggregated for a year for different warehouses. Each warehouse is a specific series (because we want them to have a individual colors). When the user clicks on a warehouse in one of the column charts, we want the line chart above to show the
For this purpose, we have all column charts store drill-down values to the same two cells:
- One cell stores the series name (warehouse selected)
- One cell stores the name of the clicked line chart (we use a single cell with the chart name as source for the first series of each chart. After the first series is selected as the default drill-down, this source and destination seems to be used for every series selected, which might be a bug)
Our problem is, all queries for the charts are loaded at startup. The default drill-downs for all charts are done, and we have a random chart in the drill-down destination. If the user clicks the same chart again, we do not notice this as the value of our target cell does not change. We have tried several solutions for this, but nothing is really satisfactory.
Does any of you have an idea, or a similar dashboard maybe, where the drill-down of several charts (preferably with several series per chart) is stored into a single target chart?
Thanks & Regards,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,
You cannot have drill downs from different charts to the same target.
As per your scenario you have 3 column charts with warehouses displaying their respective 3 KPI's values. I believe you would have created a series each for available warehouses. If you have selected drill down on load for all the column charts with one single target then at load all the three column charts will try to place the destination of their selected series(based on warehouse selected) to the same target.
And also as you mentioned when the user tries to select the same chart again the target doesn't change, the reason is the same as all the charts are trying to put the destination of the series in the same cell.
Instead of doing it this way, what you could do is to name the series of all column charts the same and have the series name put into one cell. Then based on this series name you can lookup the data for that warehouse and display it in the line chart.
Here again the user has to select the same warehouse in all the three column charts else it wont work.
Hope this was useful =]
Thanks & Regards

Show detail of ALL groups in drill-down

I have a Drill-Down report with 3 groups. When drilling down on one of the 3rd level groups for details, is it possible to show the detail of ALL the 3rd level groups?
For instance, when drilling down on Group 2, I get:
Group 1
     Group 2
          Group 3
          Group 3
Now when drilling down on one of the Group 3's above, I would like to get the details of both Group 3's (not just the group 3 I selected):
Group 1
     Group 2
          Group 3
               Details
               Details
               Etc.
          Group 3
               Details
               Etc.
Thanks,
Jsr

Hi
If you apply individual group, it's not possible.
However if you apply only one group and apply hierarchical group sort then you can achieve it.
Please refer to Crystal Reports help and search for hierarchical group for more information.
Hope this helps!!

How to reset the value of drill down - Chart

Hi gurus. I have a problem related with drilldown.
is there any way I can reset the drill down value?,of course, except for using reset button
(in this case "reset" means "make the cell blank of certain value")
I tried using "push button" and the cell is reset.
However, even though the cell is reset, the cell is set to the drill down value in one second.
ex. Drill down destination : a --> "" --> a
(a is drill down value)
Is there a way to reset the drilldown value?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your help , Sonja
I used push button but it can not refresh(reset) drill down cell
because the destination cell of the chart remains drill down value
I tried like below way
a : drill down value
Goal : make drill down cell turn to blank after i used drill down once.
1ST.
when i click the chart and use drii down, a is entered into drill down cell
2ND
by using "push button", i tried to reset drill down cell
but unfortunately it does not work.
Although drill down cell changes instantly to blank after just one second, it changes to a, drill down value
drill down cell changes like this
1 -> 2 -> 3
a -> blank -> a
i have to eliminate (2->3) phase or find another way to refresh drill down cell.

Kwon

*Can I pass default Selection dynamically for Drill Down Charts*

Hi
I am having Charts with Drill Down tab and I am currently having to select a value for the Default Selection Combo Box while saving the chart.
I want to be able to update this default selection depending upn data coming from the XML / Webservice. Is there a way to update the Default Selection dynamically ?
Please let me know if anyone has come across this.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
Drill Down > Default Selection > Series/Item may not be filled dynamically. They must be selected manually.
Good Luck.
