How to incorporate ratio in Crystal Report?

Hi,
I am new in Crystal report and had no technical background.
I would like to know how to build ratio in crystal report? The draft layout as below:
                                              (RM)        %
Sales Revenue                        A           (A/A)*100
Cost of sales                           B            (B/A)*100
Where A and B are formula in crystal report.
Regards
Thomas

Hi Thomas,
Ratio is just a result by division. If you take one field over another as a denominator, you got your ratio.
Thanks,
Gordon

You should go on a Crystal reports forum for your version of Visual Studio and Crystal reports probably.
SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio

Empty report returned from WEBI and Crystal report when using external hier

No authority check is perfomed on the hierarchy when we start the report in WEBI/Crystal. Only check on the hierarchy is performed when the root authorization is assigned to the user

Can we edit webi and deski reports and save the changes?

Can we edit webi and deski reports and save the changed values for a particular column?
If yes what rights should be granted to particular user?
Will the report changes reflect at database end also?

Both Web Intelligence and Desktop Intelligence comes with designers, where you have a GUI to design reports.
Web Intelligence you'd design in InfoView using the DHTML Report Panel or the applet-based Java Reporting Panel.
Desktop Intelligence you'd use the Desktop Intelligence client.
ReportEngine Java SDK (REBean) is what you'd use to programmatically create/modify Web Intelligence Documents.
Desktop Intelligence Reporter COM SDK is what you'd use to programmatically create/modify Desktop Intelligence Documents.

Merits and Demerits of WEBI and Crystal reports!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Experts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I came up with many documents, but i cannot able to find the exact merits and demerits over WebI and Crystal Reports.
Experts can u people help me out in this regards,
Atleast the comparison between them.
Regards,
Suman Thangadurai

What angle are you coming at this from?
Are you talking about in terms of replacing Deski?
Or as a first reporting tool to learn?
If you're moving away from Deski, I'd personally go for Webi. Very small amount of learning required to move from one to the other. It's also much easier to pick up and start working with.

BusinessObject 4.0 API to get SQL statement from webi or crystal report

Hello,
Need your help.... could you confirm whether BusinessObjects 4.0 provides any SDK, API or Web Service to get physical SQL statement from the webi or crystal reports file?
If so, could you provide name of package, class and method?
If I am not wrong, there is an SDK in v3.0 that allows to extract the SQL. But I am reading a lot on these forums that lot of SDK classes and functions are deprecated / removed in v4.0.
Thanks for your help.
Omer

For Crystal Reports in BI 4.0 to retrieve the SQL query you can use Report Application Server SDK. Here is a code snippet that retrieves the SQL statement.
//oInfoObjectReport is of type IInfoObject corresponding to the crystal report.
ReportClientDocument reportClientDoc = reportAppFactory.openDocument(oInfoObjectReport, 0, Locale.ENGLISH);
        //for all crystal reports
        GroupPath grpPath = new GroupPath();
        //get CR SQL query string
        String reportSQL=reportClientDoc.getRowsetController().getSQLStatement(grpPath,null);
        System.out.println("report SQL String: "+reportSQL);
        //for report whose datasource is command object:
        Tables tables = reportClientDoc.getDatabaseController().getDatabase().getTables();
        for (int i = 0; i < tables.size(); i++)
         ITable table = tables.getTable(i);
         ICommandTable ic= (ICommandTable) table;
         //Command can be obtained from the report using getCommandObject() method
         //get CR SQL query string
         String SQLText=ic.getCommandText();
         System.out.println("SQLText_"+i+": "+SQLText);

Embedding WebI and Crystal reports on a web page

Hi,
I'm new to BO, so please bear with me. I've also posted this to the .NET-side, so sorry if you've seen this post before.
We have a project where we will need to embed WebI and Crystal reports on a web page, i.e. we want the people who access the web page to get the reports (mainly graphs) as embedded content on the web page without any controls and other clutter.
Is this possible and what's the correct way of doing this?
Thanks,
Carl

Hi,
Thanks for the help!
We still face the original problem, though. I.e. with openDocoument we get the report, controls, tab selections, scroll bars etc. What we actually would like is to get just the contents of a report.
Is there any way of doing it? We're not afraid of coding, we have good developers. Or do we need to schedule report creation to some format (e.g. PDF) and then load the PDF to the web page?
Basicaly it's more important to get this working for WebI reports as we can redo almost all reports from Crystal to WebI. Of course we are happy to find a resolution for both cases.

Not able to schedule Webi and Crystal reports in Infoview

Hi All,
We are using Business Objects XI 3.1.
I am not able to schedule reports in Infoview irrespective of the report type.
The Webi report throws the error "Bad Request(Invalid URL)" when I hit on the Format Destination section.
The Crystal report without prompt hangs when I hit schedule button and the report with prompt throws the error "An error has occurred:Invalid postback or callback argument."
Recently we installed the Fixpack 1.2 for XI 3.1.
Thanks in Advance

How do I deploy my Crystal Reports webapp???

Post Author: figue
CA Forum: .NET
Hi, i've developed a web application using Visual Studio .Net and using the Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005. I've read almost all the "how-tos" that are available on the net to solve my situation, but i couldn't manage to deploy my application.
I have no physical access to the web server, and i cannot execute a .exe or a .msi installer (i cannot use the "merge modules" solution).The only solution i think may help me is copying the Crystal Reports dll's to my BIN folder and using those dll's instead of using the GAC references.Here's what i've done:- I copied all the dll's that I found on Program Files/Common Files/Business Objects/2.7/Managed into my app's BIN folder.- I deleted all the references to the Crystal Reports' assemblies from my solution's property pages. FIRST PROBLEM: The references were deleted, but when I closed the solution, and opened it again, all the references returned.. After trying again and again, they finally dissapeared.- I tryied to add the references to the dll's that were into my app's BIN folder, but when I browse the file, select it, and accept the dialog box, nothing happens. No reference is added into the References window.- I tryied to add the GAC references again, to return to the previous state, but it's the same, i select the reference from the GAC and when i accept the dialog box, nothing happens.- I thought that maybe my pc has some troubles with the installed versions of crystal reports (i hace 8.5, XI and CR for VS 2005 installed), so i created a Virtual Machine, Installed VS 2005 and created a new web application with one .aspx and one .rpt and tryied to change the GAC's references for the BIN's DLLs. The same thing happend.
Can somebody please help me? I'm gettin' really tired of trying and trying things and not gettin' in solved.
Regards from Argentina

Unfortunately, xcopy deployments of Crystal Reports .NET assemblies won't work, since they rely on some dll's via COM-Interop.
Those components have to be registered on the server - via merge modules install - and regretably, you're restricted from doing so.

Edit Margins in Crystal Reports 2008

Hi
I am very new to Crystal Reports and don't really know anything about it. I have to amend an existing project and it requires me to change the page margins. The only way I know of to change the margins are by using Page Setup. This works great and fixed the issue, but it was only on my local machine. This also changes the layout of every other Crystal Report that I run on my machine.
I would like to know how to edit the margins of a page for a specific Crystal Report so that it will keep the changes to the margins for other users. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

Hi Cody,
CR relies heavily on the Printer configured on the machine it's being run on.
Are both the printers on your machine and on the Server the same?
If yes, then you can go to File > Page Setup > Choose the default printer > Edit the Margins.
Otherwise, just check the 'No Printer' option > Also Check 'Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Page Size' > Edit the Margins.
This should save the page configuration within the report and should be respected anywhere you run it.
