How to make a Crystal Report look similar to a pivot table in excel?

Hello,
I was wondering if there was a way to create a pivot table to look similar to a pivot table in excel? I have a client name field that I would like to be expandable(similar to pivot table) to show notes about that client.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks!!!

There really isn't a god way to do this in CR. The problem is that CR doesn't offer any kind grid object other than the cross tab object. You can try playing around with the cross tab and read the online help files on it but I don't think you'll get it to do what you want.
HTH,
Jason

How to Call a Crystal Report from Form 6i?

Dear All,
Can anybody tell me how to call a crystal report, designed using Crystal Report 9, in form 6i? I tried one solution by using the host command but it was not working properly. The code I was tried is like:
     f_name varchar2(240);
     f_name :='C:\Program Files\Crystal Decisions\Crystal Reports 9\crw32.exe D:\Form16\Form16_Rep\bin\Debug\Form_16_character_emp.rpt';
               host(f_name);
This open the crystal report in design view. So how we call a report which run automatically like in .Net. How to pass the connection info of the database schema?
Thanks & Regards
Sunil

Hi
First see the built in run_product function.
You can create a parameter list, add the
"MAXIMIZE" paramter in it and then call your
report with run_product passing your parameter list in it.
hence the called report will be maximized.

How to get a Crystal report as an iview in Portal

Hi,
Please let me know how to get a crystal report to Portal.
Regards,
Pradeep

Hi,
I used URL iview option to get the crystal report in portal and am able to view it. Thank you all for your inputs.
But as of now SSO is not configured between BOE and BI system, so when i click on URL iview initially it asks me for credentials to BOE InfoView and after entering that it again asks for BI login as the data has to be picked from BI server.
We are going to configure SSO mean while i just want to know whether it is possible to pass the id and passw as parameters to this url iview, if so what are the parameter id's i need to maintain to pass id and passw.
Let me know on this.

How to publish a Crystal Report in Business One

Hi
Please can anyone tell me how I publish a Crystal report (which is now inbuilt in SAP B1) so it is available to all users? I have full administrator/manager user rights. I have so far created the report and saved it to my SAP server machine on it's C:drive.
Thank you very much for any help and info.
Matt

Hi, I worked out how to do it. I had to first enable the Crystal Add on from within SAP and then open the Crystal Reports Administration menu under Administration and then select "Manage Crystal Reports". From there you can browse to the report you have created and select the module for where you want it to appear under in SAP.

Can someone tell me how to make the letters that look like fabric?

It could be as simple as clipping an image of the fabric of your choice, to a text layer.
In this example the Hessian texture was downloaded from Google images, and placed over a Type layer. You then Alt (Opt) click the intersection of the Type and Hessian layer to clip them together. This just means that only the shape of the underlying layer will show in the clipped layer.

How to Replace Null Value as 0 in an OBIEE11g Pivot Table? it's working 10g

Hi,
How to Replace Null Value as 0 in an OBIEE11g Pivot Table? it's working in obiee10g version.
We have tried below methods
1) criteria tab and edit the ‘column properties’ associated with your fact measure. Choose the ‘Data Format’ tab, tick to override the default format and choose ‘Custom’.
It seems that the syntax for this custom format is positive-value-mask (semi colon) negative-value-mask (semi colon) null-mask. So this means we have a few options.
E.g. if you want zeros (0) instead of null then enter:
#,##0;-#,##0;0
2) in that formula columns we have put it below case condition also ,
Measure Column: Nom_amt --> edit formulas
CASE WHEN Nom_amt IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE Nom_amt END
3) we have uncheked IS NULL check box in the admin tool also
I tried above formats still it's not working for me..kindly help me on this..
thanks to do the needfull

How can we modify the maximum no. of columns in pivot table ?

hi all,
How can we modify the maximum no. of columns in pivot table ?
do i need to change the nqconfig.ini or instanceconfig file or else?
thnx..

A little search on the forum :
In the instanceconfig.xml add a <PivotView> element under <ServerInstance> if one does
not exist already.
Within the <PivotView> element add an entry that looks like:
<MaxCells>nnnnnn</MaxCells>
where nnnnnn is your desired limit for the maximum total number of cells allowed
in a pivot.
Warning: an excessively large number will cause more memory consumption and
slower browser performance.The details here :

Can anyone help me how I can make these numbers (font) look similar?

Hi guys
As you can see the 5 looks different (thicker?) than the 1 and 9 and I'm wondering how I can make this look similar.
I've been playing around with the eye drop tool and pencil for 2 hours but I can't see the logic in how to fix this issue.
Hopefully someone can explain me how I can solve this problem.
Thanks already!

As R_Kelly said, it might be best to just rewrite the numbers. I found that 15pt Tahoma was very similar:
Hope this helps!

How to get one crystal report to work with two different backends?

We have a software that can work with either SQL2008 or Visual Fox Pro backend. We are trying to compile One Crystal report that will work with either of the two backends. How to you make sure that your Crystal Report is compiled so that it will work with both backends?
Right now my reports were originally created using the SQL2008 backend and are retaining the DBO reference in the statement, which then will not allow the Crystal report to work with the VFP backend.

You can write your data sets as a command using hand coded SQL. As long as "dbo" is the only schema used in your SQL Server database, you don't need to specify it in the SQL. SQL Server will automatically assume the dbo.
The 2nd thing... The SQL needs to be 100% compatible with both SQL Server 2008 AND VFP. This will limit the list available functions to those that are common to both platforms AND work exactly the same in both platforms.
The other part is to make sure you are using an ODBC type connection instead of OLD/DB. That way all of the connection properties are set on the local machine and the report is simply looking for the System DSN name.

How to Retrieve a Crystal Report's Unmanaged Destination Filename

Hi all,
I have looked very closely at Robert Twigg's response to the post "[Destination Path and name of a scheduled Report|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9588160#9588160]" dated 9/1/10 and while it does retrieve the unmanaged destination path, the filename retrieved is the managed filename. How does one go about retrieving an instance's unmanaged filename?
When I look at a Crystal Report instance details, it definitely knows what the unmanaged filename that was populated, here is a sample instance detail:
External Destination: File copy the instance with the filename: "ALOG_Deferred_Clearing_RPT_2011-12-13-11-43-09.pdf" to the folder: "/apps/efs_bobj/IMPL/XX" .
As you can clearly see, the filename consists of report name, date, and time that was specified as "%SI_NAME%_%SI_STARTTIME%.%EXT%" in the destination filename.
Here's the snippet to retrieve the managed filename:
IInfoObject report = (IInfoObject) reports.get(0);
// Get the file name from the instance.
IFiles files = (IFiles) report.getFiles();
IFile file = (IFile) files.get(0);
Any insight on how to retrieve an instance's unmanaged filename would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Hart Penn

Thank you for your response. I am querying for the report instances using the query below:
IInfoObjects iRptObjects = infoStore.query("SELECT * FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS " +
                                           "Where SI_KIND='Pdf' AND " +
                                           "SI_INSTANCE>0 ");
Collection<IInfoObject> iRptObjs = iRptObjects;
for (IInfoObject iRptObj : iRptObjs) {
    ISchedulingInfo iSchedInfo = iRptObj.getSchedulingInfo();
    IEvents triggerEvents = iSchedInfo.getDependants();
    if (triggerEvents.size() > 0) {
        for (int j=0; j < triggerEvents.size(); j++) {
            IInfoObjects events = (IInfoObjects)infoStore.query("SELECT * FROM CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS " +
                                                                "Where SI_KIND='Event' AND " +
                                                                "SI_ID=" + (Integer) triggerEvents.get(j));
            if (events.size() > 0) {
                IEvent curEvent = (IEvent)events.get(0);
    IDestinationPlugin destPlugin =
        (IDestinationPlugin) infoStore.query("Select Top 1* from CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS " +
                                             "Where SI_NAME = 'CrystalEnterprise.DiskUnmanaged'").get(0);
    IDestinations dests = iSchedInfo.getDestinations();
    Collection<IDestination> destObjs = dests;
    if (dests.size() > 0) {
        // we have a dest set up
        for (IDestination destObj : destObjs) {
            if (destObj.getName().compareTo("CrystalEnterprise.DiskUnmanaged") == 0) {
                // Copy the destination properties to the destination plugin.
                destObj.copyToPlugin(destPlugin);
                // Get the scheduling options for the unmanaged disk.
                IDiskUnmanagedOptions diskUnmanagedOptions =
                    (IDiskUnmanagedOptions) destPlugin.getScheduleOptions();
                // Get the destination files
                List destFiles = diskUnmanagedOptions.getDestinationFiles();
                String pathName = (String)destFiles.get(0);
    IFiles iFiles = (IFiles) iRptObj.getFiles();
    IFile myFile = (IFile) iFiles.get(0);
    logger.debug("Object: " + iRptObj.getTitle() +
                 ", ID: " + iRptObj.getID() +
                 ", Kind: " + iRptObj.getKind() +
                 ", Trigger Event: " + curEvent.getEventName());
    logger.debug("Dest: " + pathName);
    logger.debug("Filename: " + myFile.getName());
while this is not efficient, it does retrieve the instances. However, the file name returned is not what was specified in the destination filename. Here is some info returned and displayed:
Object: ALOG_Deferred_Clearing_RPT, ID: 128776, Kind: Pdf, Trigger Event: EVT_121311_114308
Dest: /apps/efs_bobj/IMPL/XX/%SI_NAME%_%SI_STARTTIME%.%EXT%
FileName: ~ce46086dd492ac788.pdf
As you can see, the filename is clearly the managed filename.
