  • Difference between Crystal Reports Server 2008 and Business Objects XI R2

    Can anyone please help me know the difference between Crystal Reports Server 2008 and Business Objects XI R2? Both the support guides says that it supports Office 2007. I have a problem in exporting the reports to Excel 2007 .I have downloaded the trial version of Crystal Reports Server 2008 but still unable to view my  complete reports in Excel 2007 through infoview because few of my report's colums are truncated and it still exports in Excel 2003.I have LiveOfficeXIR2_SP4 and Office 2007 installed. Is it so that i have to switch over to Business Objects XI R2 or any other to solve my problem instead of using Crystal Reports Server 2008 or is it the problem with the version of my Live office.Pls help me regarding this..

    Babita,

  • Crystal Reports 2008 - saving to Business Objects Edge

    Post Author: GWilks
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    Hi,
    When trying to Open or Save a report in Crystal Reports 2008 to the Business Objects Edge server, the following message is received:
    Access denied. You cannot log on to an older version of the CMS.
    Does anyone know when or if these two versions will be updated to support each other?
    Thanks,
    Garry

    Hi Jeffrey,
    The problem when ever you see that error is due to the versions mismatch. The is due to a call into one the updated or older versions of the dll that doesn't exist where it is expected.
    They MUST be the same version number.
    Options are to bring BOE up to SP3 and FP 3.1 also or roll back CR to SP 2 and Fix Pack 2.7.
    Thank you

  • Comparison between Crystal Report Server XI R1, Crystal Report Server XI R1 , Business objects Enterpirse XI R1 and BOXI R2?

    Hello Everybody,
    I am new to Business Objects Enterprise. I need to know what is differnce between   Crystal Report Server XI R1and Crystal Report Server XI R1 ; Business objects Enterpirse XI R1 and BOXI R2?
    As a beginner, it will be very much helpful for me to learn in a better way and to go in the right track.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards,
    Annapoorani

    Annapoorani,
      I will start off with the basic difference beteen Crystal Report Server and Business Objects Enterprise.  We can continue on after this initial bit of information.
      Essentially, Crystal Report Server is a much like a subset of the full Enterprise Product line.  Whereas CRS is used for storing and scheduling Crystal Reports,  the Enterprise product extends this usability to also include Desktop Intelligence Reports as well as Web Intelligence reports.  There are also added features available with the full Enterprise Suite (depending on the licensing and installation) that also provide Performance Management, Dashboards and other enhancements.
    In the sence of XI vs XIR2,  XIR2 is more up to date with fixes and service packs.  You will find the original XI products to be closer to an end of lifecycle when it comes to support. 
    As well, the newest release not mentioned in your line of questioning is Business Objects XI3.0.  Currently this is a java based deployment, but there will be a .NET version forthcoming.  Many new features have been added and you can find more information directly at www.businessobjects.com pages.  There is a full section on the website that outlines the various products.

  • Migrating Crystal version 9.2 to Business Objects

    Is there a target version of BO where I can simply make use of my existing Crystal reports.

    Hey Alan,
    You can migrate your Cr 9.2 version reports to Crystal XI R2 version.
    But it is individual product /seperate installation as crystal  designer not included in Business Objects installation.
    You can run reports and upgrade to latest version CR 2008.
    Thanks,

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any documents or notes describ how to migrate CRS2008 from Tomcat to Webshere.

    Hi,
    Have a look at the Web Application Deployment guides which comes in two versions, one for Windows and one for Unix.
    You can find them at help.sap.com and they are named xi31_sp3_webappd_win_en.pdf and xi31_sp3_webappd_unix_en.pdf respectively.
    But to summarise it a bit, you will use wdeploy to manually deploy the WAR files to your existing web application server. It is not too complex, but if you are not familiar with running commands in prompt and with your web application server then I suggest that you get someone to assist you.
    Cheers,

  • Migrate from Crystal Report XI R2 to Business Objects XI R2

    Hello friends,
    As per end of licence life cycle for Crystal report, we need to migrate our 30 crystal reports to BO xi r2.
    First thing i need to ask is that ...is this possible to migrate from Crystal report XI R2 to BO xi R2 ?
    If yes than where i can find migration guide..i tried import wizard but its not showing crystal reports in list.
    please help..
    thanks.

    Ok. We used the same Administrator user.
    It seems first we need to move report to Report Samples than only it shows in list.
    If we keep *.rpt under user folders its not being imported.
    Import is possible this way only. Now we need to call the report from java.
    Which API should we use to print this crystal report migrated to BO?
    Regards.

  • Crystal reports being scheduled on Business Objects XI 3.1 failing

    I am in the middle of a migration from Crystal Enterprise 10 to Business Objects XI 3.1.  I am getting report failures for scheduled events.  The error is "Object could not be scheduled within the specified time interval".  Does anyone have any idea what this is?  Some of the reports run fine for this instance and then others get this message.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    This error message appears when there are a large number of reports scheduled to run at the same time, but there is a short end time for the instance. As a result, BusinessObjects Enterprise may not be able to run all the report before the end time passes.
    To resolve this error message, increase the end time on the scheduled instance. To increase the end time, use the following steps:
    1. In the Infoview, browse to the desired report and click 'History'.
    2. Find the desired scheduled instance and click 'Reschedule'.
    3. Under the 'When' section, increase the end time for the scheduled instance.
    Upon completing these steps, the error message no longer appears.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Look and feel discrepency after migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3

    Hi,
    We are migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3. If the report is designed in Crystal client by inserting a subreport it does not come well in web viewer(Infoview). If I do not use subreports then the view is same (both in web viewer & windows client preview).
    Could you please let me know, what could be the problem and how to resolve this?
    Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Mohan

    Hello,
    What happen if you use the web java viewer instead of web viewer? (you can change it in the preferences options)
    Otherwise, when you say "it does not come well", what do you mean?
    Thanks

  • Trouble migrating Crystal Reports Custom Functions from BOXI R2 to BOXI 3.1

    I can't seem to migrate the custom functions from the custom function repository in my R2 environment to the 3.1 with FP 1.3 environment.
    When I migrate Crystal Reports using the Import Wizard, they all come over and they retain their custom functions, however, they don't bring over or create a new custom function repository. 
    When I do run the import wizard I have selected the repository radio button, but it does not have any affect .
    How can I migrate all of these custom functions without having to manually open up reports and placing them back into the repository on the new server?
    Thanks,
    Randy

    Hi,
    so if they are published to Rel.2 this looks different.
    Just to clarify it a bit more...these Files are no Datasources for Reports and Universes and your Users dont consume them via InfoView?!
    Whats the purpose for these Files? If they have none, you can de- select them in the UMT and dont migrate them (or better said move them cause you wont actually migrate .csv files). But if nobody touches them, you can move them with the UMT during daily business...how long it will take i cant estimate it. But 65GB for .CSV files is a huge amount.
    But you are correct, to move them from Rel.2 to BI4 you have to use the UMT.
    If you have the ressources and time i would recommend the following (Thats what i usually do with my customers):
    1. Setup a Machine (could be a VM) with the same OS and BOE Version (included SPs and FPs) as your production Rel.2
    2. Schedule a half day or day Downtime to copy the content 1:1 from the production Rel.2 to the VM Rel.2 with the IW or CMS DB Copy. Or do this after Business Hours.
    - With this Size of your FileStore i would recommend the CMS DB copy way.
    - Now you have a 1:1 Testing Environment of your Production Environment
    3. Use the UMT to migrate from your VM Rel.2 to your BI4 installation
    - Here you can see how long it takes
    - You can check if the UMT is capable for this 65GB transfer
    - Can sort out other possible issues
    - Do some other Testing
    After you did that you have a perfect estimation on how long the Migration will take and what for issues you are facing. With this information you can decide if you need a downtime or can do it after Business Hours f.e.
    Regards
    -Seb.

  • View discrepency while migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3

    Hi,
    We are migrating Crystal Reports from XIR2 to XIR3. If the report is designed in Crystal client by inserting a subreport it does not come well in web viewer. If I do not use subreports then the view is same (both in web viewer & windows client preview).

    It's urgent. Your valuable time and solution is much appreciated.

    I moved your thread to the " .NET - SAP Crystal Reports" forum, assuming this is in a .NET app(?)
    Unfortunately, the description:
    " does not come well in web viewer"
    is somewhat "loose". Perhaps inserting a link to a screenshot(s) that demo the issue will be a good idea?
    Also, if my assumption is correct:
    1) What version of .NET?
    2) What is the exact version of CR? (In CR designer go to Help | About)
    3) What browser?
    4) Does this work on you dev system?

    hi,,

    How  is it possible ....?
    could you help me  in details?
    Plz  help me???????????

    STEP 1: Like any other add-on project, refer SBO UI and DI COM to your project. Initialize SBO APPLICATION object and SBO COMPANY object and listen to events. (This is standard add-on project steps)
    STEP 2: Add a Dataset to the project. This is used as a data source to your Crystal Reports. (For more information on this search for Push Technique Crystal Reports)
    STEP 3: Add a Windows Form to your Project.
    STEP 4: Add a Crystal Report Control to it.
    STEP 5: Design report based on dataset added above.
    STEP 6: Launch this Form with required parameters and selection criteria when any even happens.
    Remember there is lot stuff available on net if you search with PUSH TECHNIQUE CRYSTAL REPORT. SAP SDN has lot answers for adding Crystal Reports integration to SAP Business One Add-On.

    I am afraid you have come to the wrong place.  MS does not support Crystal reports except for
    "Microsoft supports setup and installation for the Crystal Reports products shipped with the Professional and Enterprise Editions of Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows versions 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 and 6.0."
    For other support you need to contact
    For other Crystal Reports support, please do not contact Microsoft. Please contact Crystal Decisions (formerly Seagate Software), which now owns and supports Crystal Report Writer.
