How can I overwrite existing reports with Publish Wizard?

Hi,
I uploaded a lot of reports to the Crystal Reports Server 2008 CMS using the Publish Wizard. Now, when I upload changed reports again, the Publish Wizard does not overwrite the existing reports. Instead it renames the new report as "<Name> (2)".
Is there an option ot overwrite the existing report based on the report name, ideally keeping the CID?
Thanks for information
Joern

Hi Jorn,
There is no option to overwrite the destination content, if you want to do that a better tool would be the Import Wizard.
Using the Import Wizard you could specify how you want the imported report being to be treated in instances where it exists also on the Destination system.
From the Import Wizard Guide:
"...you have two options to identify the object and determine if the object already exists on the destination environment:
1. Use the source object's unique identifier (CUID).
2. Use the source object's name and path.
You must decide how you would like the Import Wizard to handle scenarios where the objects already exist on the destination environment."
Please refer to the Import Wizard Guide for the various options available with this tool.

I hope this answer was very helpful to you.

  • How Can I change a report with base in another in the same dashboard?

    Hi,
    I need to publish two reports in a dashboard, the first report is a list of values and the second report is a chart. When I click in a value of the first report, the second report must change with the value selected from the first report.
    I first created the first report, and I changed the column properties in the data format, I selected treat text as: "Custom Text Format", the Custom Text Format is:
    @[html]"<f ont class=Nav oncl ick=\"Ja vaScr ipt:GoNav(event, '/path/reporte2','TABLE','FIELD','"@"');\">"@"< /fo nt>";;@
    The second Report has the next filter: FIELD is equal to / is in @{NQ_SESSION.@}
    With this the first and second reports works well, however, when I include the two reports in dashboard, the second report is updated in another window not in the same section.
    How Can I change the second report in the same page or section where this the first report?
    Thanks
    Edwin Guerrero

    I am not sure whether this would work but worth a try. Create a third report which would call the 2nd report using iframe and GO URL. Name the iframe of the narrative view. And use the java script to update the iframe using objWin = window.open(<ur go url>, “biee”,”height=480,width=240,scrollbars=yes,resizeable=yes”);. I had used a similar method to integrate biee with mapviewer.

  • How can I have Main report with a sub-report with in a sub-report??

    I have a main report that has about 5 subreports, almost like a dashboard.  I need to make one of those subreports contain another subreport.
    I don't have the option to add a sub-report with in my sub-report, so what I thought would work is remove my sub-report from my main report, then add my new sub-report, then add that report back to my main report.
    Everytime I add the sub-report that has a sub-report to my main report I lose the second sub.
    From what I've read on the internet is you can't have a sub-report contain another sub-report.  What some say is you can hyperlink that second sub report.
    When I setup my hyper link to open the second sub-report I'm prompted to re-enter my report parameters.
    Can some help me link a sub-report to a sub-report or show me how to pass a date range parameter in my hyper link so the reports just opens up?
    I'm using CR IX R2
    Thanks

    Nate,
    You are dealing with a product limitation.  Crystal cannot have nested subreports within a sub report. 
    You can generally use shared variables between sub reports to achieve your desired result

  • How can I get a report with total number of pages printed on my HP Officejet Pro 8610?

    Since knowing the number of pages I print is so critical to a choice of using the "HP Instant Ink Plan" or not, how can I find the total number of pages I have printed on my brand-new (installed 2 days ago) 8610?  And if I can, is it a "resettable" or rolling total?  Don't see anything in user guide and a search yields nothing usable on this blog.
    Printer is installed wirelessly on an older PC with Windows XP SP3.  I can also of course intstall it with network cable but so far it works OK on my home network without network cable.  If it matters which OS, I also have a Lenovo laptop running Vista on which I can install this printer. 
    Please do not respond that I can find the total by counting the number of pieces of paper I have.  Surely the internals of this fine machine must have the requested data so that HP can tell my usage if I select the monthly ink plan!
    This 8610 was a good buy (net $89.00 after trade-in of my six year old J36xx Deskjet) at Office Depot/Max which of course influenced my decision to buy it.  So far I am very happy with printing qualities and speed, have not tried the scanner yet and will probably never use the fax since I have no land line phone. 
    Thanks,
    Harry

    Hi,
    Section #2 of the Printer Ststus report will tell you. Please try:
    Printer status report
    Use the printer status report to view current printer information and ink cartridge status. Also use the printer status report to help you troubleshoot problems with the printer.
    The printer status report also contains a log of recent events.
    If you need to call HP, it is often useful to print the printer status report before calling.
    To print the Printer Status Report
    1. From the printer control panel display, touch and slide your finger across the screen and then touch Setup.
    2. Touch Print Reports and then touch Printer Status Report.
    Regards.

  • Can't Overwrite Existing Files with Same Name - Likely a Mail Error?

    Couldn't find this on the forum... Hope I can explain this properly.
    When I design something and send a proof I will send a PDF through mail. When the revises come in I used to be able to just overwrite the existing files on my desktop and re-send through mail. But now programs won't let me overwrite files with the same name anymore. Basically the program says "overwrite existing file?" but then say "file is in use. Can't overwrite."
    Back in Leopard this used to happen when I would have a mail draft open that used the data of the file I sent or was about to send. I would just have to save the mail message as a draft and the file was "no longer in use" so I could proceed as usual. But now it does this all the time regardless.
    Did this make sense? It's kind of hard to explain... But basically now when I want to send a revised file (and this can happen dozen of times in a day) I have to trash the existing file I want to overwrite. Or rename the file, which is confusing for me and my clients.
    Any thoughts?

    I have the same situation as you - sending out pdfs of designed pages and wanting to overwrite them continually. It used to happen on an older version of Mail, then it disappeared and now it's back with the latest version.
    It's more than annoying, it's downright driving me nuts. In the last hour I had to quit Mail seven times.
    Please send a fix for this Apple.

  • How can I create a report with a specified format in Answers

    Hello Everyone!
    I want to create a request in Answers gives me a report format like this:
    http://i25.tinypic.com/t6p0ee.jpg
    How can I achieve this?
    Please help!
    -D

    Thanks for quick replies. I think I was not able to give a lot of details.
    So, I am selecting a country, region, branch (branches can be multiple)
    The report is grouped by Branch (I get details of each individual projects within each of the branch, the total sales of individual projects and then total sales of the branch)
    The report then further gives me sum of sales of the branches that selected in my query.
    In the end I want the report to look similar to the pic I posted.
    Thanks!

  • How can i make a report with parameter?

    hi.
    i'd like make a report with parameter , for example when i run a report at first i fill dates ( from dd/mm/yy to dd/mm/yy) and after that run my query.
    i made a query ( select name,date from x where date between :a and :b) but when i run the report it return no row select.
    thanks

    Hi,
    This is because the query is expecting a value for :a and :b. You should run the customization form first. Enter the values
    for the :a and :b and save it. Next time when you run the report it will always pick up those values. You can also mention the
    values at design time in the customization form display options by specifying the default values.
    Thanks,

  • How can I overwrite a file with the same name in Content DB?

    Hi All,
    In Content DB if I upload a file with the same name as a previous one, the application shows the warning message:
    " ...You cannot upload "XXXXXX.doc" to "Test 1" because an item with the same name already exists ..."
    And the alternatives are "Create Version" or "Cancel" the operation. Is there any way to overwrite a previous file as we can do it in Oracle Files ?

    Hi All,
    Can anybody from the Content DB product development answer this question?

  • How can I create a Report with LabView Real-Time?

    With conventional LabView, I can create Reports in HTML, for example to document Errors.
    I need this feature in LabView Realtime. Is it possible?

    It is possible, but you got to put a name to the file with an extension of three letters. i.e. errors.htm
    Three letters on the extension is what the RT Operating system allows to use.
    Then you will need to do an ftp to your RT machine and get the file and maybe change the extensions.
    Not all the vis for Report generation can be used in the RT engine. The ones that use ACTIVE X will not work. i.e printting
    Another way to generate reports and the most recommended is to use the host machine to generate the reports.

  • How can I create a Report with the Report Generation Toolkit?

    Hi,
    I have installed Labview Report Gerneration Tool for Microsoft Office Version 1.1 and now I want to use MS Office Report Express VI but it need the VI "Dflt Data Dir.vi". I don't have this on my computer, why? Where can I get this VI? Can somebody help me?
    thanks Labprog

    Hello Labprog
    This VI should be located in the file.llb in the folder
    ..\vi.lib\utility. Thus, it is not part of the report generation
    toolkit but of LabVIEW. I am not sure why you are missing that file on
    your PC, maybe you just did not find it because it is hidden in a LLB.
    Maybe this LLB is not part of your LabVIEW package (Base, FDS, PDS).
    Anyway, I'll attatch that little VI, hoping that this is the only one missing.

  • How can I update existing website with Iweb after hard disc crash?

    I created my website on iweb and published it (but not at mobile me). Unfortunately my hard disc crashed, before I saved my webpage. Now I bought a new web and want to update my published website. How do I open it in my new Iweb 9 to update it?
    Thanks for your help,
    orisu

    Your iWeb data is stored, not in your actual published html files, but in a file called Domain.sites which is stored in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. If you want to work on your site on another computer, copy this file to a thumb drive to move it around.

  • How can I manage existing files with folders?

    I turned on Creative Cloud syncing in Adobe Ideas, which I've been using for quite a while, and now I have a bunch of files in the root of the view that I want to organise into folders. I created a folder in the web interface but there's no way to drag'n'drop files into the folder. This is also impossible in the iPad app. Is this a forthcoming feature or is there already some way to do it?

  • Procedure to Overwrite Existing Reports in Salesforce

    I've been looking around and can't seem to find the proper procedure for overwriting existing reports in Salesforce. While we are on that topic, what is the procedure for uploading new reports? What needs to be checked, filled out, clicked?
    Whenever I try to overwrite a report, it says there was a database connection error. I have to delete the report and re-upload it.

    To add a bit more to what Steve wrote:
    While we are on that topic, what is the procedure for uploading new reports?
    It depends on the report and it's data source. If you are using an onpremise data source, you would need to have implemented the Open Data Connector on site and then you can set your reports to point to that web service. The other option there is for reports from Excel files that exist in crystalreports.com. There is another forum post on that topic. For Salesforce.com reports, I cover that below.
    What needs to be checked, filled out, clicked?
    For Salesforce.com, you typically don't need to check anything related to the data source. crystalreports.com will automatically know about the data source. When a user runs the report, it will automatically use their Salesforce.com security token to run the report.
    If you want, you are able to "hard-code" the user credentials for the report. To do that, you can check the "Other data source" radio button and then input your user name/password. The password is encrypted and masked. In this case, you want to very careful as to which users have access to that report. Some customers use this to give some access to Salesforce.com data in a report that users might not have access to within Salesforce.com itself.
    Do make sure that you do not upload a report with saved data unless you intend users to see that "snapshot" of data. Otherwise, the report does not refresh by default.
    Whenever I try to overwrite a report, it says there was a database connection error. I have to delete the report and re-upload it.
    I thought I remember seeing something before happening with a report that I was trying to overwrite. It was not consistent so I was not sure if it was just something wrong with my report. What I did to resolve it was to overwrite the report with some .rpt file that did not use a Salesforce.com data source. Then I overwrote it again with the intended Salesforce.com data source report. I believe that reset the connection properly.

    '''Did you backup whatever bookmarks you did have on the computer ? '''
    Remember any restoring of bookmarks overwrites whatever he current set is, and you may not want to loose them.
    Even if up until now you have not made any backups of Desktop bookmarks Firefox will have backed up some of them into sets of daily bookmark backups. Once you have backed up your current set you could look at what it has by restoring those bookmarks, you may find one of those sets is fairly complete.
    By the way if you look at the profile files and folders that you should now have on the desktop you should see it contains a bookmarks backup folder, the size of the files within should indicate whether they contain anything.
    You need to go into the bookmarks library and try the restore option. Backup each set that you look at if it has anything of use in it, before trying the next set. With look one of those will be a fairly complete set of bookmarks.
    * USE '''Show All Bookmarks -> Import and Backup -> Restore '''
    ** see [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer#w_restoring-from-backups]]_restoring-from-backups
    I do not use Firefox on mobiles, but before you try anything further you do need to backup the desktop bookmarks and learn what existing backups you have. Unless you master that you are in continual danger of overwriting and loosing bookmarks.
    Presumably you have already found this listing of help articles for mobiles
