Hi,
You might need to create ODBC connection in BOBJ server to access EPIC.

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,

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

How to set Formulas in crystal reports 2008

Hi,
I am generating crystal reports in vb6 using CR 8.5 and vb6 and below is the code snippet for the same
CrystalReport1.Formulas(0) = "PrintTitle= '" & strMyTitle & "'"
CrystalReport1.Formulas(1) = "FromDate= '" & MskFromDate.Text & "'"
CrystalReport1.Formulas(2) = "ToDate= '" & MskToDate.Text & "'"
Please let me know how the same functionality can be achieved in VB.Net using Crsytal reports 2008
Any code snippet would be of great Help.
Thanks in Adnvance.
Ramnath

Something like this:
Imports CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine
Imports CrystalDecisions.Shared
Public Class Form1
Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form
Dim Report As New CrystalReport1()
Dim FormulaFields As FormulaFieldDefinitions
Dim FormulaField As FormulaFieldDefinition
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
FormulaFields = Report.DataDefinition.FormulaFields
FormulaField = FormulaFields.Item(0)
FormulaField.Text = "[formula text]"
CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = Report
End Sub

How to delete all the crystal reports from SAP B1 ?

Dear Experts,
I have one problem and I need to Delete all the Crystal PLD's and Crystal Reports from SAP B1.
I can delete a PLD or Report using delete option from Report and layout manager or layout designer.
But I need to select delete option for each PLD and It makes very time.I have some 200 Reports and I need to delete fully.
Is there any possible to multi delete option in SAP B1?
I have searched many but i will not receive proper solution. Any one can explain how to do This?
Thanks ,
Karthikeyan.P
MSBI Developer-Chennai

Dear Karthikeyan,
Manual deletion is actually the most safe way to delete them. If you try update B1 tables directly, you are against SAP support rule.
Thanks,
Gordon

How to create user editable Crystal Report with dynamic dataset

What I would like to achieve:
A program loads a report in runtime updates list of database fields (possibly includes sample data), open report in "Crystal Reports 2011" (or 2008) where user customizes report and saves it. Later on the program loads the report, fills actualized data and displays it in .net report viewer.
What I do:
CrReport = New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument
CrReport.Load(TemplateFilename)
Dim Results As DataTable
DataTable is filled from a database
CrReport.SetDataSource(mResults)
CrReport.SaveAs(NewReportPath, True)
The NewReportPath is opened in the default program.
What are the problems
The report is open in preview mode (not in design).
When the field is added to the report the designer asks for XML datasource on preview.

The short answer is that it is not possible. I broke the question to other two: How to save a report that it opens without preview? and How to create user editable Crystal Report with dynamic dataset, where it is possible to find details. Key answer is Re: How to create an editable previewable report?

BOBJ Auditing - Activity Universe and Crystal Reports

Here are the user requests. Are these possible with BOBJ Auditor? There are some sample reports in Infoview Public folders and Activity Universe connection is working.
1. User and Group access and type of access to all folders and Crystal reports.
2.Develop a report of the inventory of all scheduled reports indicating report name, location, frequency/schedule and distribution list (include FTP / file location if not e-mail).
A monthly report would probably be sufficient and would be used to facilitate management oversight of report distribution.
3.An inventory of all reports indicating report name, location, database connection, scheduled or not scheduled, when created, when last time run, by whom
4.Automated report for failed instances - Crystal report failures within folders. Most of the reports are run overnight
Environment: BOXI R2, Crystal Reports, Activity Universe

Hello,
I'll attempt to answer your question. I should point out that not everything you need is an audited event. You might be better served by the Query Builder for some of your requirements.
1. It is possible to create a list of all folders/ reports a user/group has access to. The type of access a user/group has is not audited.
2. This is possible (more or less). You might have to move the distribution list portion to a different tab/ report.
3. Again, I'm uncertain how much of this info is audited. Needless to say, a report that has never been run will have no audit information. Report name and location (i.e. within BOE) are audited. It doesn't look like the database connection is audited.
4. This is possible and relatively simple.
Best,
Srinivas

VS2008/VS2005 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer

Hi,
1.) I am using VS2008 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer. Are there any issues I need to consider when developing using both of the above? (or with VS2005)
2.) The confusion for me is in regards to the SDK. From what I understand from articles etc is that using CR 2008 dev we can use the .NET SDK or RAS SDK for development purposes?
3.) So downloaded the sample code for RAS .NET from [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/businessobjects-samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/80774579-b086-2b10-db91-ed58c4dda375] and tried "DatabaseLogon_CS" example, as the option. It automatically opened in VS2005 (no problem) however it would not run.
I would get an error :
Failed to connect to server "localhost".
Error returned from Windows Sockets API : 0.
and line causing this is >>> rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
Code below:
        string sampleReportPath = @"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\Samples\en\Reports\Demonstration\World Sales Report.rpt";
        object path = (object)sampleReportPath;
        // Create an instance of the ReportClientDocument.
        ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocumentClass();
        // Set the location of the RAS server.
        rcd.ReportAppServer = "localhost";
        // Use the Open() method of the ReportClientDocument to open the report.
        rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
I have been able to open the RPT file by itself. So it does 'see' the database.
Reason why it would not run?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

If you're using the sample code from our website, make sure you have uncommented the InprocRAS option in the ConfigureCrystalReports method (see below). From your error description it seems like you're using the unmanaged RAS option, which requires a RAS server.
private void ConfigureCrystalReports()
        /* The following methods implement the same sample functionality in three different RAS
         * scenarios. Uncomment the method you would like to use.
         * - inprocRAS() logs onto a databse using RAS and SQL authentication.
         * - managedRAS() logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from a managed RAS server.
         * - unmanagedRAS () logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from an unmanaged RAS server.
         * Undocument the call to the method which applies to your appropriate RAS settings.
        DatabaseLogon_inprocRAS();
        //DatabaseLogon_managedRAS();
        //DatabaseLogon_unmanagedRAS();

Views on CF Report Builder and Crystal Report

Dear all,
I would like to get your opinions on CF Report Builder and
Crystal Report.
As we all know, CF Report Builder is a new reporting tool.
But I find it very difficult to design a complex report maybe due
to limitation in its functionalities. Sometimes the tool shutdowns
by itself without any warning and reason. But the output is nicely
presented on a flash paper / pdf and it can be run on non-MS
platforms.
On the other hand, Crystal Report is a more matured product
but runs only on MS platform. It is very easy to use and very
powerful. I have been using it for almost 10 years. But the output
is not nicely presented on the web browser unless if we purchase
Crystal Report Enterprise to generate the report which is very
costly.
Can you all share your views? I need to make decision which
tool(s) to use. Really appreciate it.
Cheers,
Keiko

Hi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks
Sankalan

Hi Detleff,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio
Editor. Based on your Crystal Reports printing issue, I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue. Therefore,
I suggest you can ask your issue directly on SAP Crystal Reports:

for better solution and support.

Vb6 deployment and Crystal Report 8.5

Hi,
I tried to deploy a Visual Basic 6 on a client pc that use Crystal Report 8.5.
Because no merge files exist for this version of Crystal Report I tried to added all the necessary dll in the deploy package (using visual basic 6 tools deployment).
I read the file Runtime.hlp so I added every dll wriiten in this file.
When I run my setup I always have this error :
The program can't start because CRPE32.dll is missing from your computer.
It's strange because I added this dll to my deployment package.
So I don't no what to do anymore.
Need some help to solve this problem because I know it's easier with more recent version of Crystal Report because of the merge file but right now this software need CR 8.5.
Regards,
Hugo

Hi,
Ok here what I'm trying to do.
I have an application Visual Basic 6 that use crystal report 8.5 to export the report in pdf using the dll cradxt.dll by programming.
On the dev pc I have Visual Studio 6.0 and Crystal Report 8.5 installed.
I want to install this software on another PC so I created a deployment package, automatically the pakage added the "necessary" dlls.
But is not enough I need to added more on the client pc so it's hard even if I read the Runtime.hlp that come with Crystal Report 8.5 and I added all the dll it always seems to miss somes.
So I was wondering if a merge module or something exist like the other version of Crystal Reports to install the necessary dlls on a clients pc.
Otherwise what is the best way to do it ?
Regards.
