How to change the table's for an existing report

Hello,
How can I change the table names for reports created with a different table name? for e.g If I created a report which included a table called "2009_10_example", How can I change that table to a different table "2010_10_example1".
I am using Crystal reports 2008, and the reports were created using Report Creating Wizard.
Thanks,
Abhishek

In the Database Menu, there is an option Set Datasource Location.  This allows you to pick a table from the current tables used, and select a table to replace it with.  Press the Update button, and Crystal will swap one for the other.  If the field names and data types are all the same, it will automatically change all references throughout the report to the new table's fields.
May I suggest that your tables are set up improperly if you have to change report code to run it for different months?  The data should all be in one table with dates, and parameters to select the date range to report on.  (That was said in the spirit of helping...)
HTH,
Carl

  • How to change the Data Foundation for an existing Business Element

    My Issue:
    I have quite a few reports that use the same Business View. The Business View has an under lying Data Foundation that uses a Dynamic Data Connection (DDC). I no longer want to use this DDC because production users are complaining they do not want to have to select a data source each time (multiple times when the report includes sub reports) they run/refresh their reports.
    The Holy Grail:
    I would like to change the Data Foundation that my Business Element layer is built upon and use another data foundation with identical tables, linking, and fields. The new data foundation would be using a production connection. This solves my immediate issue and has a great side benefit of providing a convenient way to promote reports from development to stage/test, to production and would not require production users  to have to select which environment they want their report to run against.
    I am logged in to BVM as administrator:
    When I look at the Business Element layer Property Browser,  I see a Data Foundation Property but is is disabled (such that it can not be changed).
    Is there a way to change the Data Foundation that is used by an existing Business Element layer ?
    I'd appreciate any help that someone can offer on this topic. Even if it is not possible and someone can shed some light on why this would not work or would not be a good idea, I'd be interested in learning

    Technically No the system will not allow you to change as it is involved with many depreciation areas and change is not permitted for control reason.
    You only need to retire the asset, reverse the postings, assign correctly and repost the values.

  • How to change the utilised join for a particular report

    Hi,
    I have a discoverer report which is very similar to a previously developed report. I copied the report and now I want to change the join that is utilised by the new one (Two different joins exist between the two folders being used). How can I do this?
    In the report items tab under selected items in edit work sheet I can see the different joins and the one it is currently being used is ticked, i can right mouse click on the joins but the options to add/remove from worksheet are disabled (Greyed out)
    Can anyone tell me how to do this?
    Thanks in advance
    Keith

    Short answer - I'd recreate the new report.
    Long answer - I'm not sure if 10g handles this differently, but I've seen many a Disco 4 report that somehow has a 'memory' that you just can't get rid of.
    For example, if you chose some items from one folder and some others from another folder due to a join, then you deleted all those 2nd folder items, and chose from a third - and you absolutely, positively (thx. fedex) know that there's nothing referring to the original 2nd. folder (ie: no conditions, calculations, functions, etc.), you may very well still see the original 2nd. folder being referred to in the SQL. Sounds strange but it does occur.
    So, again, if 4.x, then for sure I'd start from scratch for the new report. If 10.x, I'd probably still start from scratch as even if fixed, I've just seen it screw up my day too many times in the past to try to copy something that probably only takes 15 minutes of recreation work.

  • Urgent-change the end date for a existing wage type.

    Hi,
    Can u pls let us know how to change the end date for a existing wage type.
    The current end date is 30.8.2008  and we would like to change to 31.12.9999.
    Rgds,

    Use This report RPCLGV00
    The Wage Type Distribution report enables you to display wage types for several payroll periods. It does not take into consideration differences resulting from retroactive payroll. The report shows the current values (number and amount) for each wage type. The report evaluates the payroll records that are marked with update indicator ‘A’ when the report is run. Subsequent reporting runs may not give the same result if - in the intervening period - retroactive payroll has taken place for the evaluation period. The wage type distribution uses the data from the results table RT for the relevant payroll result. The employee’s organizational assignment is also evaluated from the payroll result. This data is taken from the Work Center Basic Pay table (WPBP).
    The wage type distribution offers you the following options for evaluation:
    Individual reporting for a specific personnel number or name.
    Totals evaluation without specifying a personnel number or name.
    You cannot use wage type distribution to run a report for several countries. You can only select payroll areas from one country for reporting.
    Scope of Function
    You use the following parameters to determine how the appearance of the wage type statement:
    Wage type for evaluation
    Enter all wage types that are to be evaluated. If you do not make an entry here, the system selects all wage types. Note that you can only select wage types that occur in the RT table.
    Evaluation start date
    Evaluation start date and evaluation end date define the evaluation period. Enter the year and payroll period for the start of the evaluation.
    Evaluation end date
    This parameter delimits the evaluation period. If you do not make an entry here, only the period from the period from the parameter Evaluation start date is evaluated.

  • How to change the Display Pattern for Decimal Fields dynamically

    hi all,
    Can any one help me how to change the display pattern for decimal fields dynamically???
    Currently I am using z,zzz,zzz,zz9.999 Display pattern for Quantity Field. If the value is blank it is displaying as 0.000 on the Screen. But I don't want this to be printed.
    Please help me how to solve this ASAP.
    Thanks,
    Prabhu

    Hi,
    Alternatively you can handle it in the context.
    In the context area, click on the quantity. In the bottom, click on the conditions tab, and put a condition
    <quan field> NE initial.
    So the field will not be printed if there is no value.

  • How to change the package name for a msg class

    Can anybody tell me how to change the package name for a message class.
    and how will it effect in the rerport?
    thanks in advance
    kp

    >>and how will it effect in the report?
    You wouldn't see any direct effect on the Report.. But if you transport the report to QA & leave the Message class in Dev, it might result in syntax issues & you will not be able to execute the report. Just ensure that both of them get transported to QA & you will be fine.
