How to view Crystal report under iOS ?

Hello,
I'm new with Crystal reports.
In BI 4.1 SP2 Patch 3 LaunchPad I have in " Preferences / Crystal report / View format":
(x) Web (no downloading required)
Yet, when I try to view Crystal reports on iOS mobiles, I've a message saying I have to install "Flash Player 11" !?!
=> impossible with iOS !
Is it a bug ?
Do I actually need Flash plugin to view Crystal reports ???
If yes, "no downloading required" is not true...
What is the best way to view Crystal reports on iOS mobiles ?
In fact, I use Crystal reports provided with auditing Universe.
They don't seem to be available in WebI format like with previous versions of BO.
Regards,
Stéphane.

hello Stéphane,
the prompt / parameter dialogue is the piece that uses flash.
you can still view reports without the prompt dialogue but if you need parameterized reports then you have to build an html front end containing the controls to target the report. you can do that with webelements. please see this blog post here.
your other choice is to get / purchase the mobile add-on for crystal reports server or businessobjects enterprise.

How to view Crystal Report reports in Xcelsius?

Hi Friends,
I want a step by step How to view Crystal Report reports in Xcelsius? Thanks in advance!
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
this is unfortunately not possible in that direction.
What would work, is to use an Xcelsius model inside a Crystal Report. A guide to do that can be found here:

How to view crystal report 11 in ActiveXViewer Control

I want to user Crystal Report XI with .Net 2.0 and I want to use Crystal ActiveX Report Viewer (client side control) in my Web Application. and wants to print the report client side.
I am new to crystal report,
If any one know, please help me..
Regards

Hello Praveen,
Crystal Reports XI (v11.0) is not supported with VS2005 or VS2008. At a minimum you will need Crystal Reports XI Release 2 (v11.5). Additionally, the CR.NET SDK uses the Web form viewer control, which is a DHTML viewer. There is no supported method for using any of the Crystal Reports ActiveX viewers in a .NET web application directly.
For information on getting started with the Crystal Reports .NET SDK you can visit these links:
Online [Developer Help Library|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/developer/library] - scroll down to the bottom of the page for the CR XI R2 link.
[Developer Getting Started|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/developer/gettingstarted] information.
[.NET Developer Resources|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/dotnet].
[Code Samples|http://www.businessobjects.com/global/doc/dev_zone/NET_SApps_q405.zip] - this is a comprehensive collection of samples. Look for the CR.NET samples in the collection.

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing p

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing parameter to it.
how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.

how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.This would entirely depend on crystal reports and you might find informations on crystal reports related communities more likely...I for one have seen crystal reports the last time about 12 years ago. And even back then I simply acknowledged it's existence instead of working with it.
Maybe crystal reports can be invoked via a URL call which would make it simple as you'd need simply build an URL and show the report using web.show_document. But that's pure speculation. Also you might not be the first with this requirement, so the solution to your problem might be right under your nose and just a little google search away ;)
cheers

How to do crystal reports in bi-7 i need clear steps

how to do crystal reports in bi-7 i need clear steps

Hi,
Please read the following documents.
I am sure that this is going to help you in creating crystal reports.
Regards,
Subha
Pls grant me points if it is found useful
Use
The Reporting Agent allows you to precalculate BEx queries (as useful queries) for Crystal reports in the background. This is a device used to improve system performance when executing Crystal reports.
Prerequisites
·        In the BEx Query Designer, you have defined a useful query for Crystal Reports and determined variables for the required characteristics.
·        You may want to apply a filter when precalculating this useful query using a control query (see Parameter Filtering in the section below). In this case, you need to have created an additional suitable query in the BEx Query Designer.
The associate variable must have the type Changeable with Query Navigation. Other variables can have any type.
Procedure
       1.      Choose the REPORTING_AGENT transaction code.
       2.      Select Precalculating Crystal Reports Queries and choose Execute.
       3.      Navigate to the required query in the left-hand Reporting Agent Settings tree.
       4.      You have the following options for creating a new setting:
-         Choose New Setting from the context menu.
-         Choose Create New Setting.
The New Reporting Agent Setting dialog box appears.
       5.      Enter a technical name and a description.
The following information is displayed on the General tab page:
-         The functional area of the setting is Precalculation of Crystal Reports Queries.
-         Information about the query for which you are creating a setting is shown under the Query group header (description, technical name, InfoProvider).
-         After the setting has been saved for the first time, the system displays details of the last person who changed the setting and the time this change was made, under the Last Changed On/By group header.
-         Under the Setting is Used in Packages group header, the system displays information about the packages in which the setting is used, and how they are scheduled. This information can only be displayed if you have defined the setting and assigned one or more scheduling packages to it.
       6.      Choose the Parameters tab page.
       7.      Determine whether precalculation of the Crystal Reports queries are to be parameterized using a filter and using variants.
For more information and recommendations for choosing parameters in a straightforward example, see Parameterizing Crystal Reports Queries Setting.
Filtering Parameters
No Filters
When you do not want to use a control query to precalculate variables, choose No Filter.
You can combine this option with parameterization using Variables (see below).
Explicitly Using Query Result
If you want to use a control query when filtering, choose Explicitly Using Query Result. You can now make entries in the Control Query and Variants fields.
Specify the technical name of the control query. Input help is available. After you save your entries, the system updates the information according to your selections.
You only need to specify a variant when the control query contains input-ready mandatory variables. This does not happen very often, however.
You can combine this option with parameterization using Variables (see below).
Parameter Variants
After making your setting for filtering a parameter, you can process variant for the individual characteristic values of the variables set in the useful query.
Note: The variable screen only offers such variables when they have not already been filled by the control query. (This can also include variables of type Changeable with Query Navigation, as long as they arent filled by the query).
You can choose from the following functions:
Create a Variant
A dialog box appears in which you can choose values for the SAP variables used in the useful query, in the Query Selection area. Input help is available for those InfoObjects for which SAP variables have been created.
Enter the required data.
Choose .
Change Variants
Delete Variants
If you have already created one or more variants, the system lists these in the lower part of the screen. Choose the variants you want to change or delete and choose the appropriate function.

How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes Scripts ?

 Hi all, How to use Crystal Reports XI release 2 Preview with Lotus Notes 7 Scripts ? Thank's 

Hi,
we are using Lotus Notes and Crystal Reports for preview and printing reports from our Lotus Notes Applications. We use the RDC object model. For previewing the reports we export them in an pdf-file and then start the PDF Reader to show the Preview. This works fine.
But with Crystal Reports > 11 the RDC Object Model is no longer supportet, so we look for another way to preview and print our reports.
I try to preview a report build with crystal report XI release 2 in my thick client (Lotus Notes) using java reporting component JRC, this report uses an native xml file as datasource. If the datasource is saved with the report everything works fine, but otherwise I have the following error:
JRCAgent1 detected an exception: javax.xml.namespace.QName: method getPrefix()Ljava/lang/String; not found
I also tried the .jars from Crystal4Eclipse. Doesn't work. When I use Eclipse to view the report everything works fine. The class QName exitsts in the jaxrpc.jar and in the xbean.jar, but only in the xbean.jar a Methode getPrefix exists.
This is what we tried:
Works fine with RDC. Doesn't work with JRC until now.
Did this help you ?
Perhaps you con help me with the JRC, because I'm a java newbee so any ideas could be helpful.

How to use Crystal Report in Oraacle Jdeveloper

Hi all,
I am new in crystal report . i want information how to use Crystal Report in Oraacle Jdeveloper10g like how to call .rpt file in oracle Jdeveloper or how to compile .rpt file in crystal report
plz can any one help me regarding that matter
-Amol

Hello Amol,
The Crystal Report for Eclipse - Java-based Crystal Reports development - is integrated into the Eclipse IDE and IBM RAD.
However, it's not integrated with JDeveloper.
You can still access the Crystal Java Reporting Component to create Java applications to view Crystal Reports, but you'd not be able to create RPT files unless you use Eclipse or RAD.
More info for CR4E here:

How to Burst Crystal reports to user Inboxes in BI 4.0

We have been bursting crystal reports using dynamic recipients (using crystal report as recipient file) to external email ids.
How do we burst the outputs to their BO Inboxes? We found documentation around Webi report bursting to enterprise recipients, but it involves creating profiles and using universe objects.
We do not deal with Webi or Universes currently.
Appreciate your help!
Thanks,
Neeraj

Thanks Chinmaya,
Since we only use Crystal reports, can the profile targets be skipped? Profile Targets only has the Universe selection option.
Also, are there any pointers on how to use Crystal Reports expression under Profile Values?
Appreciate your help.

How to create crystal reports using MSDE 2000?

Post Author: S_Muhilan
CA Forum: Deployment
Hi,
I am using Crystal report 8.5. My Database sqlserver 2000. I generated reports and are working fine.
Now I want to use MSDE 2000 instead of Sqlserver 2000 due to license factor.
My application is developed in VB 6. The all the parts of the application is working fine except the report.
All reports produced Database DLL error.
So I opened the report and try to verify the database. But it gives pdssql.dll not found. Database error.
After this error, I tried to create a new report and found that there is no option for MSDE 2000 database selection under more database.
I usually select Sql server 2000 database under More Database option of location wizard.
How to create crystal reports using MSDE 2000?
Is it due to crystal report 8.5 verison problem? I also have crystal report 11 licensed copy.
Please give me the good solution as early as possible
RegardsS. Muhilan

To use the inproc RAS SDK with CR.NET, you'd have to purchase either (1) Crystal Reports XI Release 2 Developer edition, and apply Service Pack 2 or above, or (2) Crystal Reports 2008 (not Crystal Reports Basic that comes with Visual Studio 2008).

Can't view Crystal Reports from BW

Hi,
I'm installing SAP Integration Kit XI 3.1 SP3 with IIS. I am able to publish reports from BW to BOE but not able view them from BW. I followed the documentation to use report/report_view.aspx to define the viewer application in Content Administration Workbench. But it is giving me a "The page cannot be found" error when I try to view Crystal Reports from BW. I tried looking for the file report/report.aspx but cannot find it. I was able to locate the file in SAP_CrystalReport_View/report_view.aspx. I repointed the system to this path but it still giving me the same error.
Anybody here encountered this before?
Thanks,
Elijah

Hi Ingo,
- has the report being saved to BW and then published to BusinessObjects enterprise ?
    Yes, the report is being published from BW to BOE successfully.
- did you import the ABAP Transports to the BW system ?
    I imported all the transports that came with the Integration Kit. I'm not sure if the ABAP transport is one of them.
- has the viewing service in transaction SICF been configured ?
    Yes, the top entry in the handler list is /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER.
I did notice that the BW system is on a different subdomain than the web application server. For example,
   BW system        - bw01.us.mydomain.com
   BOE web server -   boweb.mydomain.com
Would that affect the single sign on?

How to register custom report under Custom Development Application

Hi 2 all
How to register custom report under the Custom Development application in R12 vision DB, and also confirm location/folder of Custom Development application in R12.
Thanks
Zulqarnain

Hi,
You may or may not need to "register" the workflow - it depends on the changes that you made and which Item Type you modified. Some applications are essentially hard-coded to use a specific item type and process, some hard-coded to use an item type but you can configure the process to use, and some allow you to specify which item type and which process to use.
Without knowing exactly what you have done, though, there is no specific advice that anyone can give you here on what you need to do, apart from to ensure that you have saved the new definition to the database.
