How to use the repository; uploading reports from DEV to PROD...

Hello...
I'm fairly new to CR-XIr2 (SP3) but have worked with Crystal Reports since v6.0.  I'm trying to figure out how to create a dynamic parameter list that someone can select an item from, which will get sent as an input parameter to the SQL Server 2005 stored proc that populates the report.  I'm also trying to figure out if there's an easy way to copy reports from a DEV environment into PROD.  We have BOE.
Basically, I would like to find out resources online or in books on how to use the BOE repository for dynamic and/or cascading parameters (i.e. pulling a list of text values & their associated IDs from a lookup table that won't be used in the report), images (i.e. corporate logo), etc..  What complicates things for us is that IT is now requiring us to use a DEV environmentit was really easy when we had unlimited access in PROD!  We also need to put together a process where reports & other repository objects that are copied from DEV to PROD access the correct db, etc.  (Crystal Report in DEV accesses DEV db/repository/etc.when copied to PROD it accesses PROD db/repository/etc.)
Anyway, I'm just looking for info on where to begin--whether it be a book, a BO/SAP knowledge base article, in-class training from a specific company, etc.  Thanks!

Hey Markian,
Can you let me know the process you have followed to migrate from Dev to Prod.
We can migrate all the reports and objects and database fields through migrate wizard where you can import all the objects, reports and database fields and users to production enterprise.
Just follow the above scenario and let us know if you are facing any error.
Try  publish the reports using import wizard and run it in the crystal designer.
Regards,
Naveen.

  • How to filter the data on Reports from collected from differnet Agents

    1) I have to write a Plug-in which would fetch the same type of data from 7 Agents. I need to generate the report for each Agent separately,This plug-in will be deployed in various different environment. So I will not know the host name as it will be deployed different environment. Can anyone suggest how to filter the data for each agent from the table. I see one solution of using Bind variable for the Target GUID in PL/SQL file. Can you please suggest if there is any other better way of doing this.????
    Also Can you please suggest what are the best ways to debug the OEM Plug-in?
    Thanks Anyway.....

    What I mean filtering data means displaying data for each Agent Seperatly. Assume I have collected Filesystem data from 5 Agents (5 different server). Now I want do display file system data for Agent1 (server 1). How would I fetch it from MGMT$Metric_Current. Currently I use a bind variable
    ??EMIP_BIND_TARGET_GUID?? to filter the data for a Agent from MGMT$Metric_Current view. I compare Target Name entered while deploying Plug-in with the Target_Name column of specified view.Is there any other way of fetching data from this table for a Agent?
    I hope I am prety clear now. My Problem is IO dont want to force user to enter exact Server name while deploying Plug-in.
    Thanks......

  • How to use the column names generated from Dynamic SQL

    Hi,
    I have a problem with Dynamic SQL.
    I have written an SQL which will dynamically generate the Select statement with from and where clause in it.
    But that select statement when executed will get me hundreds of rows and i want to insert each row separately into one more table.
    For that i have used a ref cursor to open and insert the table.
    In the select list the column names will also be as follows: COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3,....COLUMNn
    Please find below the sample code:
    TYPE ref_csr IS REF CURSOR;
    insert_csr ref_csr;
    v_select VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_table VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_where VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_ins_tab VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_insert VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_ins_query VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    OPEN insert_csr FOR CASE
    WHEN v_where IS NOT NULL
    THEN 'SELECT '
    || v_select
    || ' FROM '
    || v_table
    || v_where
    || ';'
    ELSE 'SELECT ' || v_select || ' FROM ' || v_table || ';'

    || v_insert
    || ') VALUES ('
    || How to fetch the column names here
    || ');';
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_ins_query;
    END LOOP;
    Please help me out with the above problem.

    I Built the statement as required but i need the column list because the first column value of each row should be inserted into one more table.
    So i was asking how to fetch the column list in a ref cursor so that value can be inserted in one more table.
    >
    Then add a RETURNING INTO clause to the query to have Oracle return the first column values into a collection.

  • How to use the Oracle FTS search from my own program ?

    Hi,
    Due to certain reasons, we cann't use the UI that comes up with the Oracle help. Now I am wondering, If anybody has attempted to build something like the following:
    Have thier own JSP from where they had this search input box
    Accept the data (input) that's punched there by the user
    Use the code engine to query the .idx file with the input
    then whatever comes back as a result of that search (as a list or whatever), loop thru and display them as hrefs in thier own UI.
    If somebody has done this, I would appreciate if they could share thier code.
    Thanks very much.
    -Ram

    Brian,
    Thanks very much for quick response.
    First to answer your questions ....
    Yes, you have got it right. We want it to use for a help system and this is about OHW.
    The reasons for not being able to use the UI as is because: We want the UI to have our look and feel.
    As such we wrote some code that would also take care of the the context sensitivity (of course using the topicID's etc). We have a Data initialization bean on the top of each page and that sets the topicId for that page from the Mapping file and so when the user presses the F1 key it shows up the right help page.
    Now the challenge is: Search
    What I want to do is:
    Provide a search field (<input type="Text" name="searchFieldName">) on my page and thus accept the input (let's say request.getParameter("searchFieldName")) and write some code by which I will pass that off to your engine .. and which will then look at the .idx file and return the results to me as a collection or something like that, so that then I can use that to render the search results in my page. (I guess you must be doing something similiar, right).
    So did that make sense ? I will appreciate if you can provide me some code examples or directions pertaining to this.
    I looked at your method's (orcale help jar file) and tried to proceed but lost my way.
    Thanks a lot
    -Ram

    Hi,
    Go to Administrator->Manage Presentation Catalg->Click on Group folder under which the dashboard and reports are present
    1)Create one folder and copy the reports which are present in the dashboard pages you want(reports will be under some specific folder,open and copy one after the other to the newly created folder).Do this if you want other set of same reports for new dashboard that you are creating
    2)Click on _portal and create a new folder(new dashboard)
    3)Click on dashboad that is to be copied
    4)copy the pages one after the other into new dashboard folder
    If you are not keeping new set of reports then no need to point reports in pages,if reports are placed under new folder then go to each page and pull those reports from newly created folder.

  • How to remove the header in Report from SQVI

    Folks,
    I created a report by joining 4 tables in SQVI, the output data is around 200 pages. I need to remove the header from the report so I can down load to a excel.
    Can some tell me how to switch of the header in SQVI ( Layout Mode). I did this before using Legend on/off but I quite didn't remember how I exactly did it.
    Thanks,
    Kumar

    Hi,
          It is not about the thing that, whether your source is XML or flat file. If you dont want some thing in your source file , dont consider it and dont map it with your target structure. think that, your not getting the header in your source.  What is the header here.
    <Emp_details>
    <Emp_Id> Employee No </Emp_Id>
    <Emp_Name> Employee Name </Emp_Name>
    </Emp_details>
    <Emp_details>
    <Emp_Id> 1234 </Emp_Id>
    <Emp_Name> xxxx </Emp_Name>
    </Emp_details>
    <Emp_details>
    <Emp_Id> 5678 </Emp_Id>
    <Emp_Name> yyy </Emp_Name>
    </Emp_details>
    you have two fields under node Emp_details. What do u want to avoid here?

  • How to use the grow/shrink effect from the gallery

    I'm not interested in the entire gallery, however, the
    grow/shrink effect is very nice.
    I tried looking for it in dreamweaver....
    and then I tried grabbing gallery.js and spryeffects.js
    I get errors.....Has anyone extracted this particular
    behavior? There are a number of places it can be useful.
    Thanks,

    Oh, I think I have found something ot there, sorry if I was a little impatient...
    "3d fog only works with 2 different 3d image types and does not work with a AE 3d scene."
    And one of that 3d images is "RPF" or something like that, a file that contains some 3D or depth info as far as I can imagine... So... really there is no effect like this to simulate fog quickly & easily into a simple 3D After Effects composition? Cause it'd be very usefull... of course I can imagine several ways to "fake" it, but a simple effect for each 3D layer it'd be great to avoid complications... Well, anyway any imput or advice it'll be very welcomed, CHEERS!

  • How do I use the Oracle Developer Reporting Control in Visual Basic 6.0?

    I was wondering how to use the Oracle Developer Reporting Control componant in Visual Basic 6.0 to generate reports in Oracle Reports? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Rohit,
    Would like to ask you some questions about the oracle report with Visual Basic.
    1. I have a report built in oracle report. Currently there is a Visual Basic program want to pass some parameter to this report. Can Visual Basic program pass the parameter to this oracel report?
    2. Based on yr answer, do i have to installed the oracle report? or just copy and register the Rwsxa60.ocx (i'm using oracle report 6i) in the PC? So can i use this activeX control.
    3. Is this activeX control similar to Crystal report object which can found in VB?
    4. Is there an example/guide on how the Visual Basic pass the parameter to oracel form?
    Your answer will be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • How to migrate document hierarchy from DEV to PROD?

    Need some suggestions as to migration of the document hierarchy. The migration wizard is great for migration objects such as portlets, but it's cumbersome to migrate the entire document hierarchy from DEV to PROD as we will have to select all the leaves in the hierarchy to retain the tree. Does any one have the similar experience and have some suggestions? Thanks!

  • Catalog Migration from Dev to Prod

    Hello,
    Certain users of our system are unable to login to OBIEE after we migrate to Prod. Getting the below error
    access denied for user to path /users/*USERNAME*/_portal/dashboard layout
    USERNAME is the userid used to login to obiee
    In our Prod, Users have access to Answers and hence they save their reports under My Folders.
    While we migrate the new set of dashboards and reports from Dev to prod, we overwrite the System, System.atr, Shared, Shared.atr files of Prod with the corresponding files from Dev. Thus retaining the Users and Users.atr files of Prod.
    Security: All are users/pwd are stored in the RPD
    Is there something wrong with the migration procedure or is it a bug?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    +2) Why did you migrate the "System, System.atr" ? Try without this one, but just the "shared" folders and files.+
    System, System.atr are migrated since this folder stores the Privileges and data formatting etc. These configurations need to be migrated to prod as well.
    However I tried what you suggested and USERNAME is able to login and see the dashboards. But the Privileges and data formatting changes in Dev didnt get into Prod
    There is a Security folder under System. Do you know what it is used for. Should I try to retain this folder in Prod?I don't really know.
    The object permissions (like report permissions) are supposed to be in ATR file (i think so...), but there are other permissions and security things everywhere.
    But i appears to be a clue to solve your problem.
    +3) Do you have a backup of the previous Prod webcatalog ? If so, try to copy the USERNAME/_portal content into the new one.+
    This might work, but I really need to identify what is the root cause for this since we have migrations bi-weekly and this issue might pop-up again for a different userOf course. I just suggested that to see if if the /username/_portal were really different, despite you didn't upgrade them.
