How to Save/Transport Crystal Reports 2013 reports in ECC (not BW)

Hi,
we are using Crystal Report 2013 and have reports which are based on ALV´s and SAP Tables directly.
I want to know if it´s possible to save the reports directly in the ECC system, with transport connection etc. and maybe the possibility to translate the reports later in another language.
I know the way when we have reports based on a BW system, there it is really easy and integrated.
But in this case we are on a normal ECC System, not a BW Enviroment.
At the moment we have the report rpt files locally.
Has someone already done this and or knows a tutorial what steps are to do? (connection, package, roles)
Kindly regards
Max

Hi Max,
Please have a look at this document from Tammy Powlas.

  • How to save landscape print layout for report designed in SQL Server 2005

    How to save page setup for a report wich was designed in SQL Server 2005 RS?  Each time report is previewed, I have to change portrate to landscape orientation and left and right marging from 0,5 to 0,25, to be able to see all fieldas on the report.
    Thanks!

    Hi, Marina;
    Which version of Crystal Reports are you using? Once you set a report to Landscape, and save the report, it should stay that way, unless you change to a different printer.

  • How to save the data of ABAP report into a notepad in desktop location???

    HI all,
    Can any one tell me how to transfer the data of ABAP report into a Notepad.
    Actually I have to schedule a ABAP report in background on daily basis and I want to transfer the

    declare a character type internal table.
    now move your data from it_data ( internal table with data ) into table itab.
    since you are running this report in background, you cannot save it to the desktop. Instead give any app server location
    data: itab(400) occurs 0 with header line.
    field-symbols: <fs1> type any.
    data: gv_file type rlgrap-filename default 'TEST.TXT'.
    data: gv_filepath type rlgrap-filename default <path>.
    LOOP AT it_data.
        DO 100 TIMES.
          ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE it_data TO <fs1>.
          IF sy-subrc = 0.
            CONCATENATE itab <fs1> INTO itab SEPARATED BY ' '.
          ELSE.
            EXIT.

  • How to "Save for web" just the layer effect but not the content area?

    I fill the area with white, then add outter glow to the layer. Now I want to "Save for web" the outter glow effect but not the white area. I want the white area to be transparent. If I delete the white area, the layer effect goes away, if I merge the layer with another to flatten (think then I can delete the white middle while keeping the layer effect stay),  the layer effect look totally different after flatten.

    Set the fill to 0% in the layers panel (not the opacity). Then save for web as a PNG24, with transparency checked.

  • Crystal reports 2013 , SAP MDX Driver not able to connect with BW BEX Query

    Hi All,
    We just installed Crystal 2013, and want to create crystal report on SAP BW CUBE/BEX Query through SAP MDX Driver.
    1.When start connecting through SAP MDX Query option from new connection , SAP Systems which are in SAPLOGON are not appearing in initial screen. where as from OLAP Connection we are able to connect to SAP BEX Query.
    2.Even from SAP Tool kit we are not able to connect to BEX query, we are getting ERROR MESSAGE.
    and we are using SAP BI BO PLATFORM 4.1 sp01 .
    Please suggest me , if I am missing any configuration settings.
    Regards,
    Joseph

    Hi Joseph,
    Before you start building the report, make sure the right transports have been loaded on the SAP System. The right Transport files are the ones found inside the installation zip you download from SAP's server. They're under the "Collaterals\Add-Ons\SAP\Transports" folder.
    For more info on Transports, authorizations etc, please have your BASIS admin go through this wiki:
    Crystal Reports 2008 and BW - Installation and Configuration - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
    To resolve your first issue, please follow the steps from this thread:
    Problems with SAPLogon.ini for SAP GUI and Crystal 2011
    P.S: Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.1 does a better job at handling BEx queries that the CR 2013 designer. It directly connects to BEx queries via the BICS connectivity driver and doesn't need the Transports to be there on the SAP System. You might want to give this flavour of CR a try too.

  • How to Save Multiple Variants for a Report at a time?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a report in one server and I have copied the same into another server.
    And now I also have to copy the variants of that report.
    There are totally 192 variants for the report. So, is there any easier way to copy all those variants for the new report that I have created, rather than re-creating the variants one-by-one manually.
    Note:There is no connection to both the servers. So I cannot transport them.
    Thanks in advance.

    Basis can do a export and import transport, still if don't have connection between boxes.
    or

  • In JS, how to save a bookmark which can open in main, not sidebar?

    I did lots of search on the web. People have been struggling with this problem for many years.
    The scenario:
    My standard_weight.php takes height parameter either from $_GET or from $POST. The web page has a form to let users type in height.
    Control-D can save the location, but not the height.
    My page is too simple to ask users to create an account and save profile.
    So I want to provide a link users can click and bookmark the current page with height.
    <pre><nowiki><script language="JavaScript1.2" type="text/javascript">
    function CreateBookmarkLink() {
    title = "my ideal weight";
    height = function_to_get_current_height_value();
    url = "http://my.site.com/standard_weight.php?height=" + height ;
    if (window.sidebar) { // Mozilla Firefox Bookmark
    window.sidebar.addPanel(title, url,"");
    } else if( window.external ) { // IE Favorite
    window.external.AddFavorite( url, title);
    } else if(window.opera && window.print) { // Opera Hotlist
    alert("Sorry, your browser doesn't support this function." );
    return false ;
    if (window.external) {
    document.write('<a onClick ="javascript:CreateBookmarkLink();">Add to Favorites</a>');
    } else if (window.sidebar) {
    document.write('<a onClick ="javascript:CreateBookmarkLink();">Bookmark Page</a>');
    } else if (window.opera && window.print) {
    document.write('<a onClick ="javascript:CreateBookmarkLink();">Add Bookmark</a>');
    </script>
    </nowiki></pre>
    When the link is clicked , a dialog will pop up and the user can save the bookmark.
    The problem is that when the bookmark is opened, it is in sidebar. The bookmark property has the check for "Load this bookmark in the sidebar."
    Asking users to clear the check is not a friendly solution.
    Is there anyway to get around this problem?
    If you google this topic, you can find that people has been struggling with this for long time. I guess that they just end up with saying "sorry, your browser doesn't support this function." on Firefox.
    Best wishes to Firefox !

    I'm trying to connect SAP Crystal Report 2013 with SAP ECC but I'm getting below error. I've read some where that We need to install SAP integration kit but SAP BI 4.1 it comes default, also had to install the ABAP cystal report transport - How to do Install this on SAP side -

  • Crystal Reports 2013 java-error "java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.crystaldecisions..." when promoting

    Hi,
    when promoting "Crystal Report 2013" report (with data connectivity BW MDX Query) from BO DEV to BO PROD with BO Promotion Mgmt (LCM), we get the following error message in LCM jobs history:
    Resolution Status=Overwritten, Dependency Status=All the required dependencies are included.,
    Commit Status=Commit attempted and failed.,
    Promotion Status=Failure : Object promoted. Update failed.
    Error: java.lang.ClassCastException: class com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ByteArray:java.net.URLClassLoader@1d634758 incompatible
    with class com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.PropertyBag:java.net.URLClassLoader@1d634758
    The report itself is present on BO PROD, but the overwrite (BW DEV MDX Query-> BW PROD MDX Query) is not applied, so report connectivity still points to the BW Query on the development system :-( .
    Moreover, the overwrite itself is detected when the job is "test promoted" ("active overwrite").
    Before, we successfully were able to transport crystal reports 2013 with overwrite (the connection then pointed to BW PROD). No idea yet what suddenly changed that...
    Any ideas what causes the error and what can fix it (no posts found, no SAP note, google also no hits)?
    Best regards
    Florian Pitschi

    Update:
    After more investigation, it looks as if the BO Server "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer"
    from time to time has an issue - not only when promoting, but also when viewing publications that contain Crystal Report documents or when executing them, the java class error or similar issue is thrown.
    Did sb face similar behaviour and knows what is the root cause for "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer" not working probably and throwing the java-class error? - it was running fine for several months, now, the class error showed up twice in one month.
    We need to find out what is causing the issue (aleady checked tomcat and BO-logfiles...).
    Best Regards

  • Crystal Reports 2013 OLAP connection server types

    I wrote a Crystal Reports 2013 report using the OLAP Cube Report Wizard.  In the wizard, it prompted for OLAP data and Select Cube was chosen.  In the OLAP connection browser window, Add was chosen.  In Server type, Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 10.0 was chosen.  The report was then finished and worked fine.  However, on a different PC, that Server type is not found if trying to re-create.  Can anyone tell me what client tools must be installed on a PC for the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis Services 10.0 to show in the Server type of an OLAP connection.  We tried installing just the OLE DB provider and now it shows under OLE DB connections but not under the OLAP Connections.
    As an added question, does anyone know what must be installed on the Business Objects 4.0 server in order to publish the same report using an OLAP connection to Bus Objects?  We have tried creating an OLAP Connection that works fine but the report does not seem to be using that type connection.  I'm guessing it needs the client tool that will answer the first question.

    Hi Nate
    I'm a little unsure of where this is not working - WIN 7? MS 2003 Server?
    What's the font problem you saw?
    What database are you connecting to?
    Is the ProvideX" ODBC driver supported on WIN 7 / WIN 2003?
    Can you connect to the database via ODBC using any other software? I's like you to try SQLConn, see what that tells you.

  • Crystal Report 2013

    Hi there ,
    I was just wondering if anyone has ever come across the needs to run a Crystal Report 2013 report file (.rpt) file from ColdFusion?
    I am currently using ColdFusion 9, but it seems that the cfreport tag does not work with Crystal Report 2013?
    If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi Chetan,
    If you have installed SAP GUI before the Crystal Reports then you need to reinstall SAP GUI or update SAPLOGON.INI file.

  • How to save a png with a straight or fat alpha?

    Long story short, work in broadcast and a new piece of gear prefers png files.  I know how to save png's with a transparency, that's not the problem.  What I don't know how to do or if it's possible is to save them with a straight or fat alpha.  Right now we feather or extend the edges out past the alpha of say a logo and save it as a tif, psd or .tga.  That way once it's keyed over video or whatever, the edges look good, no black bad edging.... this makes sense, probably not explaining it very well.   But switching to png files I have no idea how to make a straight or fat alpha since it sees transparency.  I mean if I feathered out the edges, a png will see that correct, since there's no alpha??
    I hope this makes sense ?

    Chris, this is probably the answer I seek "PNG always saves with straight color - that's how the PNG spec defines it." 
    I admit my explanation was a bit weak and I understand PNG only supports transparency, which is not an alpha,  and the apps aren't treating them wrong....I just couldn't formulate an intelligent question and explain it, my bad.
    After thinking about it I don't think using a PNG will work. RIght now for broadcast gear/applications if we don't fill the transparent and semi-transparent areas of an image with the colored part of the image, we usually end up getting a dirty key/matte or a lot of fringing.  So when using a .tif or .tga that reads an actuall alpha, we can fix the issue by doing what I described.  In fact we use a quick little plugin from flaming Pear called "Solidifty" to speed up the process http://www.flamingpear.com/download.html .  With that said, I know we can't do the same steps with a png because it only sees transparency, but I guess I was wondering if there was a work-around or a trick to fix that issue.  I could be wong, but doesn't a png save with white ?
    But again, as I thought about it, I think i'm asking for something it's not meant to do, but I thought I'd ask anyway.
    Thanks Chris, does this make more sense or more confusing?  The bottom-line is I don't think it will work.
