How to change a report in Manager's Desktop?

Hi all,
i want to change a report in the Manager's Desktop Compensation Management.
Report name: Cost Center
You can see it under this link: [www.starbulls-fotos.de/1.jpg]
When i now run the report i can see the report, but with no selection screen. I only get a finished report with fixed selection parameters
You can see it under this link: [www.starbulls-fotos.de/2.jpg]
How can i change this selection parameters?
In this example i want to change the "Cost Element Group" to an other value.
When i run this report outside of the Manager's Desktop with the transaction code "S_ALR_87013611" i get the selection screen needed and can change the parameters.
It would be great if anyone could help me!
TIA!

Hi Strobbel,
Execute your report via the transaction. Check the selection variants on that first selection screen. You will see the default one that came up for you and others that may have been created to default for Managers' Desktop. You can select the one that is appearing with the incorrect cost element group and change it to the correct one. Save the changed selection screen. We also have a transaction ZZBCVARIANT that can be used to change the selection screen variants.
Also, remember, the manager in Managers' Desktop may be limited due to authorizations to see data from only certain cost centers (his own).

How to change crystal report data field at runtime ?

Hello everyone,
I have a Crystal Report file ,which i am using to generate report for my windows form project .
In that report i have a filed called as Quantity which data type is set as decimal, the requirement is like that the number of value those comes after decimal point that should be set according to the value which is given by the user at the run time .
For eg: If user gives 1 at the run time then the report Qty field value set one value after decimal point. Like 12.1
if user gives 2 then Qty field the value is 12.22 like tat but user can give from zero to any number.. and if it is zero it should not show decimal
Note: The main idea hear is how to change the filed in Crystal Report decimal point value by using code(or we say writing code we need to set manually as user input it will change)
Can any body help me how to solve this issue .
S.K Nayak

I think you could probably make the field you see a formula field and take a parameter as the number of decimal places.
totext converts a number to a string.
totext({decimalField}, 2)
That's 2 decimal places.
You could probably substitute a {parameter} for that 2.
If not then you could substitute an entire formula.
To explore formulas:
foreach (FormulaFieldDefinition f in rpt.DataDefinition.FormulaFields)
MessageBox.Show(f.Name);
// f.Text = your new formula
Where rpt is an instantiated report.
Or add another string field which you display in the column and do the calculation with the original decimal.
Hope that helps.

How to install the Report Queue Manager alone without the Developer suite

is it possible to install the Report Queue Manager alone without the Developer suite...
i want to install it in the clients machine... please if you have any idea...
thanks for the help...

I use a product called No Machine. http://www.nomachine.com/download.php which is a client which allows you to connect via a graphical interface remotely. Lots of people also use VNC, if you do this you may need to install the VNC server option on the HPUX box, then connect via the VNC client. You should really talk to your unix administrator how they want to do it.
If you have access to the HP machine do you know if it is started in graphical mode? If so you should be fine. It will require this mode.
Also as the root user us will need to execute the command
xhost +this allows user to remote connect to the UNIX box in graphical mode.
When this starts up you can start a terminal session.
you will need to set the display for the user that will start the install.
DISPLAY=:0.0make sure that the command
echo $DISPLAYreturns
*:0.0*everything should go from there.
Failing this you can do the silent install, refer to the installation guide for the options there.
cheers

How to change myself to account manager from account member?

Hi,
I've been to the Verizion store where me and my dad activated our cellphones to change my role to account manager(since me and my dad's phones were activated by my uncle-in-law, which means my phone lines are his sub-account or something).
we went there since i'm moving to Louisiana and just wanted to change the billing address, so we talked to the employee at there and she simply put me as an account manager or something, but when i checked my verizon today, i'm still an account member.
Can anybody tell me what i have to be an account manager? or just wanna know how to change the billing address..
hope you guys can help me out.
thanks!

Hey Mrpark121,
Being an account manager is extremely convenient. It allows you to view the bill and make account changes without the account owner present. It also means you are doing something right, because the account owner has placed that trust in you to make those changes.
If you are listed on the account as an account manager you can call in and have the ability to discuss the account in complete detail and make changes. The only changes you cannot make are adding or removing an account manager as well as add, change or delete the billing system password.
You would have to be given that same access online. Right now you are an account member so the information you are allowed to see is limited. For steps on how to make you an account manage through My Verizon, visit http://vz.to/ZIaxkY.
Then when you're ready to change the billing address please visit, http://vz.to/WH2nm8.
Let us know if you need additional assistance.

How to change existing reports of sap with CR

Hello Professionals,
I need your help on the following matter:
We recently updated one of our costumers from 2007 to SAP B1 version 8.8
So, now we are able to use the Crystal Reports-Viewer for most of existing standard-reports of SAP, such as the report for open invoices and so on.
To the question:
Our costumer wishes to change the report - instead of information like the installement no. (the costumer doesn't work with payment installements at all) he wishes to have other information, like card code and tel no. within the report.
Now I tried to implement those informations. But I can't, because I don't know how to link the tables concernig primary keys and so on. And where can I find those "PLD-ITEMS"-tables??
Can you help me please and hand over some further "how-to-information"?
Thanks in advance,
best regards,
daniel

Hi Juli,
The procedure of how to link those table is pretty clear - so theoretically I know how I have to proceed within Crystal Reports in order to get some more - more or less useless - information into an existing report by linking some other tables perjoins into an query.
The Problem is - to connect the ocrd or other tables concerning the business partners to the report I need the possibility of a correct and smart link. I can't think of any for a connection to the ritm-table. Gordon mentioned that table in a comment before.
Hi Gordon,
meanwhile I got access to the help-information of the sdk. But how am I supposed to find the right information there? I've been into the section Customization Tools - Database Tables References.
To tell the truth - I got problems understanding those infos and even more important: within the section reports I can't find further information to the open docs-report - is it a 'standard report'?
Greetings and good start into the week tomorrow,
daniel

How to change Crystal Reports XI database name at run time from ASP code using ADO

Dear All,
I need advises regarding to my problem below
I have two database in same SQL 2005 SERVER for TEST01 and LIVE01 Environtment, and I've created more than 100 reports with Crystal Reports 11 and call it from ASP classic page.
The problem is how can I change a database from TEST01 to LIVE01 at the run time from ASP code as I already using TEST01 database on Crystal Reports and I do not want to set a new database location inside crystal for each reports
Thanks and wait for your reply soon.
Below is my code, which has no effect to crystal reports although I've change the database from TEST01 to LIVE01:
<%
Dim oADOConnection, oRptTable, oADORecordset, sql
Dim struser, strpwd, strdriver, dblocation, dbname, strConnect
struser = "sa"
strpwd = ""
strdriver = "{SQL SERVER}"
dblocation = "SQL200501"
dbname = "LIVE01"    ' Changed from TEST01 to LIVE01
strConnect = "User Id=" & strUser & ";"
strConnect = strConnect & "PWD=" & strPwd & ";"
strConnect = strConnect & "DRIVER=" & StrDriver & ";"
strConnect = strConnect & "SERVER=" & DBLocation & ";"
strConnect = strConnect & "DATABASE=" & dbName
sql="Select * from Employee"
Set session("oApp") = Server.CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application.11")
Set session("oRpt") = session("oApp").OpenReport("C:\REPORTS\RPT01.RPT", 1) 'USING TEST01 DATABASE
session("oRpt").MorePrintEngineErrorMessages = False
session("oRpt").EnableParameterPrompting = False
session("oRpt").DiscardSavedData
Set oADOConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
oADOConnection.Open (strConnect)
Set oADORecordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
Set oRptTable = session("oRpt").Database.Tables.Item(1)
oRptTable.SetDataSource oADORecordset, 3
session("oRpt").SQLQueryString = CStr(sql)
session("oRpt").ReadRecords
%>

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I have the same problem when moving reports from development to Test to Production environments. If the DBName is not the same the report ignores the name provided at runtime.

Hi Vangelis,
Here's a simple VB class that has functions for setting the login details for the report and passing parameters.
Option Strict Off
Option Explicit On
Public Class CrystalFunctions

    End Enum
    Public Shared Sub SetCrystalLogin(ByVal sUser As String, ByVal sPassword As String, ByVal sServer As String, ByVal sCompanyDB As String, _

        Dim oDB As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Database = oRpt.Database
        Dim oTables As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Tables = oDB.Tables

        oSections = oRpt.ReportDefinition.Sections
        For Each oSection In oSections
            oRptObjs = oSection.ReportObjects
            For Each oRptObj In oRptObjs
                If oRptObj.Kind = CrystalDecisions.Shared.ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject Then

                    ' Open the subreport
                    oSubRpt = oSubRptObj.OpenSubreport(oSubRptObj.SubreportName)
                    oDB = oSubRpt.Database
                    oTables = oDB.Tables
                    For Each oTable As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table In oTables
                        oLogonInfo = oTable.LogOnInfo
                        oLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo = oConnectInfo
                        oTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(oLogonInfo)
                    Next
                End If
            Next
        Next
    End Sub
    Public Shared Sub SetCrystalParams(ByVal sFieldName As String, ByVal iDataType As ParamType, ByVal sVal As String, ByRef oRpt As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument)
        Dim oFieldDefs As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ParameterFieldDefinitions
        Dim oFieldDef As CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ParameterFieldDefinition
        Dim oParamVals As CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterValues
        Dim oDiscreteVal As CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue
        oFieldDefs = oRpt.DataDefinition.ParameterFields
        oFieldDef = oFieldDefs(sFieldName)
        oParamVals = oFieldDef.CurrentValues
        oParamVals.Clear()
        oDiscreteVal = New CrystalDecisions.Shared.ParameterDiscreteValue()
        Select Case iDataType
            Case ParamType.Int
                oDiscreteVal.Value = System.Convert.ToInt32(sVal)
            Case ParamType.Text
                oDiscreteVal.Value = sVal
        End Select
        oParamVals.Add(oDiscreteVal)
        oFieldDef.ApplyCurrentValues(oParamVals)
    End Sub
End Class
And here's how you would use them:
' Create an instance of the Crystal report
_rptCrystal = New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument()
_rptCrystal.Load(_oSBO.AddonPath + "\Reports\MyReport.rpt")
' Call SetCrystalLogin to see the logon information for all report tables
CrystalFunctions.SetCrystalLogin(sUser, sPassword, _oSBO.SboCompany.Server, _oSBO.SboCompany.CompanyDB, _rptCrystal)
' Set my report parameter value
CrystalFunctions.SetCrystalParams("MyParam", CrystalFunctions.ParamType.Int, 999, _rptCrystal)
' Print the report straight to the printer
_rptCrystal.PrintToPrinter(1, False, 0, 0)
The other way to approach this solution would be to base your Crystal report on a .NET dataset rather than a database connection. However, as you've already written your report, the code above is going to be simpler to implement.
Kind Regards,
Owen

Hi,
I need some information from your side.
Which reports are you using?( Crystal Report, Webi or Deski) with exact version of it.
If the reports are running properly from the designer and you are having issue with application or in coding then you can post this question to BO Java SDK Application (Java Development) forum for better assistance.

URGENT : how to change the report to use two date sets

Hi,
I have a summary report with the name of the sales agents and their total sales for the period from so and so. Now I need to run the same report to be able to see their total sales but from two set of dates, for eg. the same report for 2006 and 2007, side by side to compare the sales done by these agents.. to get an idea if their performance is improving, etc. How do I do this??
The report already has two parameters date1 and date2, so in this I can give the date as from 01-JAN-2006 to 31-MAR-2006. But in the same report, I also need the total sales from 01-JAN-2007 to 31-MAR-2007, so that it can be compared.
Please advise. Its urgent. Its for the chairman.
Thx.
