Hyperlinks in Crystal reports - SAP BW BI environment

Hi Gurus,
I am working on SAP BI BO integration environment on Cystal reports 2008 and WebI reports. Source for both of them are BEx queries.
1. I need to create a hyperlink on one crystal report column which opens another Crystal report. The target cystal has 2 prompts which are optional and a date range prompt which is mandatory. I am trying to create hyperlink using Hyperlink tab of Format editor. How to make the target report prompts as optional and how pass date range.
2. I need to create a hyperlink on one crystal report column which opens another WebI report. The rest of details are same as above.
How to acheive this requirement. If you have any thoughts, please share
Thanks
Praveen

Take a look at the openDocument documentation
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31SP3/en/xi31_sp3_opendocument_en.pdf
If a prompt is optional you have to add it to your URL only if you really want to pass a value. If no value is available then you can ommit it.
I ould recommend to create your on formula field that puts the URL together and not use the hyperlink wizard. This way you can build the link accordingly depending on the availability of parameter values.

Stratos

Hyperlink on Crystal Report: how to popup a window without menubar?

Hyperlink on Crystal Report: how to popup a window without menubar?
Hello Experts!
I'm using VS2003 with Crystal Reports for VS2003.
I need to show a popup window clicking a hyperlink text object on my crystal report.
On the CrystalReportViewer I have set up HyperlinkTarget=_blank, and it's working fine.
But when I click on the hyperlink and shows the popup window, how can I show the popup window without menubar, toolbar, directories, etc.
Something like:
window.open('../MyPage.html?id=id001" + Cad + "',null,'menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,resizable=yes,status=yes')

Adam is correct. The closest you can get is setting the CrystalReportViewers HyperlinkTarget to _blank. It was seen as a potential security vulnerability to allow you to run scripts from a Crystal Reports. In our Enterprise product you can use a reg key called EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects to control whether this can be turned on or off.
Unfortunately this was never ported over to our .NET CrystalReportViewer.
This is referenced in notes 1202803, 1219298, and 1219301.

Crystal Reports, SAP B1 - connect OINV, OPCH (A/R Invoice, A/P Invoice)

What I need to do is to connect the two SAP B1 v9.0 tables listed above (A/P Invoice OINV, and A/R Invoice OPCH) in a Crystal report WITHOUT SQL. How do you connect these tables? Purpose of report is for sales commissions. Existing customer report combines SAP B1 data from these tables but is done manually in Excel. Attempting to create report in Crystal for automation purposes. Will also include INV1 and PCH1 for detailed line item marketing document information. Thanks for any assistance.

Since the picture doesn't show what is actually linked to what, here is a written description of the links I used between tables (with 2 alternates in case I'm wrong):
OPRJ.PrjCode left join INV1.Project
INV1.BaseEntry left join RDR1.DocEntry
INV1.BaseLine left join RDR1.LineNumber
INV1.DocEntry left join OINV.DocEntry
INV1.ObjType left join OINV.ObjType
INV1.ItemCode inner join OITM.ItemCode
OINV.CardCode inner join OCRD.CardCode
OINV.SlpCode left join OSLP.SlpCode
OITM.ItmsGrpCod left join OITB.ItmsGrpCod
RDR1.DocEntry left join ORDR.DocEntry
RDR1.DocEntry left join DLN1.BaseEntry
RDR1.LineNum left join DLN1.LineNum (s/b BaseLine?)
RDR1.DocEntry left joing POR1.BaseEntry
RDR1.LineNum left join POR1.LineNum (s/b BaseLine?)
RDR1.ObjType left join ORDR.ObjType
POR1.DocEntry left join OPOR.DocEntry
POR1.ObjType left join OPOR.ObjType
POR1.DocEntry left join PCH1.BaseEntry
POR1.LineNum left join PCH1.BaseLine
PCH1.DocEntry left join OPCH.DocEntry
PCH1.ObjType left join OPCH.ObjType
DLN1.DocEntry left join ODLN.DocEntry
DLN1.ObjType left join ODLN.ObjType

Where do you create a Selection Criteria TOKEN? (Crystal Reports, SAP B1)

I have downloaded "How to Work with Crystal Reports in SAP Business One" and read where it mentions "tokens" (starting on page 19). I followed the directions and created a New Parameter in a Crystal Report with the name of
BPCode@Select distinct CardCode from OCRD where CardType = "C"
as directed on page 21 as an example of a token. OK, so now I have a parameter with a very long name that doesn't do anything when I run the report in standalone Crystal Reports connected to our SAP B1 application.
At what place in the "Create New Parameter" dialog box in Crystal Reports do you actually enter this information? Nothing in that dialog box seems appropriate for SQL expressions. Reading through SCN threads, I could not find anything that addressed this simple question. What am I missing?
NOTE: I do NOT have the CR Add-In available to me in SAP B1. I cannot get it to install. All of my work is done in standalone Crystal Reports and all reports are then imported from there. I am a CR developer with less than 1 month experience with SAP B1.
Thanks.

OK, so I imported an .rpt file as a "report" instead of as a layout and placed it in a known module location (though the options were extremely limited). I had no idea where to go to run the report, but under "Modules", "Reports", and the location I just imported to, I found and chose the report.
The next step was a dialog box with two blank prompts and a third blank prompt asking for a particular field value from a table in the report. The actual Crystal report has only two parameters (good ol' DocKey@ and ObjectID@). I have to actually look at a known document in B1 and enter the values for the parameters before I get an actual result.
Now, more questions...
If there is a token in this report process, where is it?
Why would I run a report this way when it's going to ask me the DocEntry and ObjectId numbers which are not known to me unless I do research (Actually, what you don't know is that all of the reports I've created are revisions to marketing documents, so I haven't created anything new or unique to B1 that would involve complex analysis).
I spend almost two hours a day scouring the SCN to figure this stuff out and am still lost. I haven't read anything anywhere that describes this process in an adequate fashion. If SAP makes BOTH B1 and Crystal Reports, why not make the connection between them seamless and user-friendly?
Gordon, if you're listening, you'd probably do well writing another book on this subject!!

Issue with Crystal Report & SAP B1 8.8

Hello,
I imported my crystal report in SAP.
When I want to edit the report throught SAP, it opens the report on crystal report session.
The problem is when I want to save the file. It wants to save in a temporal file.
How I can solve it ? where SAP save the .RPT flie ?
Thanks

Hi,
You can save your edit CR (Crystal Report) in .rpt file.
Once you have imported CR
Admin > Setup > General > report n layout....
Select Your CR
Click on Edit button
now new window is open that is CR in editable form
Go in File Menu of CR > Save As > "Give your location"
Which will save as .rpt format....
Thanks

Hide the "Go To Hyperlink" feature Crystal reports XI

HI All,

Created hyperlined reports
On the preview window when i Right click on the hyperlink i can see the option "Go To Hyperlink"
Is it possible to hide the "Go To Hyperlink" feature?

Hi Arun,
If you don't want the user to be able to go to a hyper link then convert it to a string. Then the option won't appear... No option to turn it off.

Hyperlinks within Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am using Crystal Reports to create a statement. We would like to include hyperlinks in our report. We have already created hyperlinks within the report. The hyperlinks are only operational when I click within the subreport. I want to process my report to a PDF and have the hyperlinks work. Any Suggestions? I am currently working in Crystal 8.5 (we have 10 but our database is not matching up).

As an alternative, at least one of the 3rd-party Crystal Reports Manager tools listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html can use visible or hidden (white font) formulas anywhere within a Crystal report (including inside subreports) to create file, web, or email links at that same location within the pdf export of the report. Optionally, an image (such as a .png button image can be added to provide a GUI for the link.

Crystal Report 从 SAP ECC6.0 中取数据

我已经安装了BO 和 Integration kits for SAP.
现在想用Crystal report 从 ECC6.0的表中取数出报表,但数据库连接失败.
我现在还要做什么设定和配置呢?
谢谢

或者是把librfc.dll拷贝到操作系统文件目录，如u201C％windir％\system32u201D下即可。
设计CR-IK报表时候需要借助SAP-GUI，但是纯浏览CR－SAP报表时候，只是需要Librfc.dll来实现通讯。
上述前提是已经在设计CR报表时候，将全部登录信息写死在报表文件中。

Hyperlinks in Crystal Reports

Hi, Gurus,
I am new to Crystal Rports and trying to create Hyperlinks from Summary to Detail report.
I am in confusion which report is Source and Tearget (Summary or Detail) that I should copy the object and paste into Report part for Another Report Object.
And not sure whether object refers to Column Heading or Group heading or details. I am using evaluation version 2008
Can anyone please help me on this.
Thanks in advance
Sree Raj

Hi Sree,
As I understand you want to link your summary report to details report through hyperlink.
In this scenario you have to create hyperlink from the source to destination i.e from summary to detail report.
If your summary is placed in Group Footer section then Objects will be Group Footer and so on.
Please let us know if you need any further clarification.
Regards,
Ankeet

Crystal report parameter issue in SAP B1 8.8

Hi Experts,
We are facing following issue in Crystal report SAP B1 8.8 version
Can not open crystal report without mentioning optional parameters.
User is forced to mention all parameters
User should allow to open crystal report by mentioning mandetory parameters
if We set for the parameter value of field [Optional Prompt] to 'True' and then preview in SAP Business One, then although the dialogue is displayed, click 'OK' without populating the parameter value, the report is run
but in our case we are passing parameters through Stored Procedure and this option is block in report to do so.
means that option available to make optional true / false is block and we are not able to do anything.
Pls. provide solution

Crystal Reports Templates usage - SAP BW MDX query data

Hi Ingo,
How are you?
I am experiencing issues with crystal reports when trying to use crystal reports templates with SAP BW data.
I have successfully created Crystal Report using SAP BW data with NodeID, ParentNodeID hierarchy, Crystal Hierarchical Grouping.
Also developed Xcelsius Dashboard using Live Office --> Crystal Report (SAP BW data) with refresh data on open.
Now trying to create a template for new crystal reports to be designedu2026
The following are observed by me:
1. When I create a crystal report using Report Wizard and select templates from the list shown, the following error displayed for SAP BW data:
2. When I try to apply template using Template Expert and selecting the report which is created using SAP BW data (and formatted), the following error displayed:
u201CCould not apply template to the documentu201D
I would like to know, whether there are known issues with Crystal Reports Templates using SAP BW data? If so, could you suggest any solutions/work around to this issue?
Thanks & Regards,
S.Salai Manimudiyan

I tried the following three methods:
1. Applied all the 12 Crystal Templates
2. Applied my own reports as Template
3. Also applied Crystal Report developed using Templates Fileds.
None of the above is working.
Created a report with BW query data and try to apply all the above templates but the same issue.
If I create a report using eFashion universe and apply all the above works without any problem.
I do agree with you that templates should not depend on the data source, as it is mainly for the common/standard report page layout (to reuse)...
Could you pl. check at your end and let me know the results.
Thanks & Regards,
S.Salai Manimudiyan
