Labels in Crystal Reports diagrams

Hello!
How can I change the labels of a Crystal Reports' diagram in my Java program?
Thanks in advance
Dmitri Pissarenko

I think all you need to do is right click the details section and select section expert. Within the Section Expert be sure you have the Details section highlighted (and not Details a, Details b, etc) and a layout tab will appear to the left. On the layout tab you can change the spacing and size of your mailing labels.

Custom data labels in Crystal Reports charts

Hi,
I have a problem with charts in Crystal Reports. The notation prescribe e.g. that positive values appears a plus (+21) and negative values a minus (-21).
The problem is, that I canu2019t assign custom values to the data labels (e.g. the value is 20 but I want to show +20 or 18 or something else).
Furthermore, its a problem that I can't scaling depending on a formula field. This is required that all charts in the report have the same scale and are dynamically depending on the values in the report.
I need a solution to both problems, or a workaround.
Thanks in advance
Kevin

Limited drop down list in selection criteria in Crystal Report

I have designed a Crystal Report to produce Item Labels using Crystal Reports for SAP Business One.
The design has a Dynamic parameter for the selection of Item Code, linked to the OITM table in the database
The customer database has 5000+ items.
When I run the report, either in the designer or in the viewer, I get 5 pages of item codes to select from, but they stop at 1000 items.
Is this a bug with Crystal, or is there some configuration I can change to correct this issue?

Getting an error trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 on a 64 bit Windows

reformatted my computer and now I'm trying to install Crystal Reports 2008 on 64 bit windows 7 box. When the "Registering modules" portion of the install comes up, I get a message that a dll has failed to register. I saw something about not having the Microsoft Visual c++ 2005 redistributable pack (x86) installed but that was not it either.
The cd label say Crystal Reports to Crystal Reports 2008 Upgrade, but it does not seem like I have to have the older version of Crystal insatlled.
Any ideas how to fix this ?

Hello together,
i've had the same problem. Tried to install CR SP 2 "cr2008win_sp2.exe" onto an existing CR 2008 SP1 installation, and got the above error. After extracting the cr2008win_sp2.exe to an folder using Winzip (or just start Installation, the source would be extracted to "c:\temp" ), navigate to the subfolder "\package" and execute the CrystalReports.msp (in my case: c:\temp\package\CrystalReports.msp). This start's the Installation of SP 2. If you get an version mismatch, use parameter SKIP_PATCH_VERSION_CHECK=1 by typing command in an dos prompt "c:\temp\package\CrystalReports.msp SKIP_PATCH_VERSION_CHECK=1" but remember, you need to have an SP1 installed (somebody said, SP's are incremental).
Reboot and apply then the CR 2008 SP2 FixPack 7 "cr2008fp27.exe". Use this Link to Download CR and Xcelsius Stuff:
[https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/bobj_download/main.htm]
I would suggest you not to use IE for downloading, use an alternative browser. I got only bad downloads (IE8 on Win7).
This is the way i did and this works pretty good.
Good Luck

Crystal Reports version 10.2 and IE8 issues

We are currently running Visual Studio 2005 and using the Crystal Reports that comes packaged with Studio. We are creating avery labels with crystal reports and we see our data perfectly fine in FF and IE7 - however in IE 8 for our Subreports we get [object] in place of the data we'd expect to see. What needs to be updated on our servers (which are running as windows 2008 servers (64bit))?
thank you.

Not sure what you are seeing as the "object" link in your post resolves to:
http://forums.sdn.sap.com/
As you are using CR 10.2, make sure you have applied SP1;
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006007872008E/crvs05sp1.exe
If that does not help, let me know a bit more about what is happening.

Crystal Reports 2011 cannot see Excel 2007 as an export type

I just installed/updated to cr2011. Installation went fine, and i did not get any problems. I am able to run all my previous reports, and if i makes chamges to a report and save, i do get asked "do you want to save it with the latest report format"
My version is 14.0.2.364RTM
When i click export, i do not see EXCEL 2007 or any other new types, i know are included for cr2011.
Is there anything else i need to download ? cr2011 runtimes ? or remove or configure ?
thanks

Abhilash, thank you.
I have another quick question, and if i need to open a new post i can.
I have CRD by ChristianStevenSoftware, which we use to automate and schedule/deliver our reports.
When i upgraded to cr2011, i was told by CristianSteven software, that i had to select the correct CRYSTAL RUNTIMES.
They have a gui to use for the user to "Chang Crystal Version". when i used it, i was presented with a dialog box, which
had Crystal Reports 2011(13.xx) as the latest. I slected this option as i assumed they though 13.xx was correct for 2011( i know 14.xx is what i have installed.
Anyway i did not get an error when upgrading to 13.xx, but when i started CRD, i got an error.
The CRD developer says :-
The install that is in the picture looks like the installation of the crystal reports 2011 applicaton,
not the runtimes. The runtimes should be a seperate installation, please let me know if you
see any installations under add/remove programs that is labeled:
--SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
That should be the name showing for the 2011 runtimes. If you cannot find it in the add/remove programs, you should be able to download the runtimes from the SAP.Com website.
I do not see SAP Crystal Reports runtime engine for .NET Framework 4
Can i download them from SAP site as he suggests ?
Thanks in advance, John

2 Spider diagrams, only one displayed in Crystal Reports Viewer 2008

Hi,
I have two Spider diagrams in the report. One shows values for this and another for previous year. The second diagram is placed on top of the first. The diagram below has white background and the diagram above has transparent background.
Everything works as it should in the Crystal Reports Developer. But Crystal Reports Viewer shows the "transparent" diagram only, that is on the top.
Has anyone experienced such before? Any suggestion? Thanks in advance.

Thanks. Yes, I can see them. In Crystal Reports Developer I see them in both ways. In the Viewer only side-by-side.

Crystal Report 2008 Area Chart Data Label Problem

Stacked Area Chart (Layer Cake) Issues:
We would like to use a Crystal Report (2008) Stacked Area Layer Cake chart to show the workload RPD's (Sum of Resources Per Day = Y value axis) and Data_Date of the study (M,Month of study date = X value axis, using fiscal year type cycle Oct - Sept).
Each Stacked Area represents the workload RPD's for a single project, or group of projects.
When showing labels or series information the chart becomes overloaded and not visible to read because there is over 400 data points.
Is there a way to break this dataset down so that values and/or labels are visible, using the crystal report options available? To suppress multiple layers and show a single label per layer?
We tried using the Color Highlight to group and display them by group and condition. The labels and series data points are still over crowded.
We also need to overlay the chart with the Average FC Totals from an additional Crosstab report. Is there a way to overlay this over the 1st layer of the report?

Hi Aasavari Bhave,
Thanks for your Quick Reply.
<<Also, when you see the report exported as PDF in the browser, are you seeing all records\labels on 1 page or are they separated across several pages just like in CR Designer>>
when i export the report all the records are seperated across several pages. i am using adobe print to print the report.
<<How are you printing the report, using Adpbe print or printoutputcontroller.printreport?>>
I am printing the report using in 2 different ways.
1. Using adobe print
I have designed the label report for 1.1 height and 3.5 width in crystal report designer. but when i generate the report with pdf browser as output the report height and width are 11.0 height and 8.50 width.
2. Using printoutputcontroller
I am printing the report directly from the application using printoutput controller . when i print using print output controller i am getting an exception "printer's imageable width is too small".
My application is developed in java. Please help me to display this report in my application as per the page size I mentioned and also how can i avoid the exception "printer's imageable width is too small".

Label Printing issues on Crystal Reports Server

I built a label that prints off beautifully on my local machine with Crystal XI installed. However, when I post the label to the reports server, and a user tries to print it off, it prints off two blank labels behind each good label. I have racked my brain on this for days. The printer settings are identical to my local machine. Any idea what might be causing this?

I think the following information might help you
Symptom
A label report was viewed over the web using the Web Component Server, and printed on a label maker printer DYMO 330. The labels were being resized to 8 1/2 x 11 instead of printing the size of the label. Even after selecting the correct size, the labels print one per page, followed by 3 blank labels.
When printing was done through a distributed report or the report designer, the labels printed to the correct size and only printed one label with no blank labels.
What is causing the label report to print incorrectly when printed from the web viewer?
Resolution
Steps to Resolve
1. Open the report in the Crystal Reports 8 designer on the web server.
2. Click on 'File' then click 'Printer Setup'. If a printer is already selected then set it to 'No Printer', click 'OK', then save the report.
3. Click on 'File' then click 'Printer Setup' again. Select the default printer and clear the 'Default Properties' checkbox.
4. Click 'OK' and save the report.
5. Click on Start > Settings > Control Panel > Services and double click 'Seagate Page Server' service. Set this service to run under an 'Administrator' account.
6. Stop and restart the service, and close down all browsers.
The label reports now will print successfully over the web.
Background
Incorrect printing from a web viewer can have several causes, including:
· The report is designed with a designated printer, but the encapsulated page format (EPF) files are being created in 'No Printer' mode.
· The server does not have access to the printer.
· A valid printer is not saved with the report on the server.
· The printer driver is not installed on the server.

Crystal Reports - Page Break/Create Address Labels

Problem description:
I am creating a letter writer function for a Windows application. The how-to documentation I have is not providing the necessary step(s) for showing one record per page. From what I have gathered there is a page break function, however, I have not been able to implement it. I have set up a Crystal report in a .Net 2008 (Visual Basic) application with a Section 5 (Page Footer) and need to break and start a new page at this point. One page per letter (record) for multiple letter distributions.
I also need specific instructions on how to create an address label maker for this application. So far I was able to include a Crystal Reports form set up specifically for address labels but not to make it work.
Since the application will be distributed this is not a machine specific issue.

Localization of CrossTab row and column label Crystal Report RPT file

Dear all,
Does anyone know how to support multiple locale texts (English and French) in CrossTab Row and Column Header labels and grand total labels? Is there a way to parameterize text objects CrossTab in one single Crystal Report RPT file to use some sort of locale resource file containing text string for different languages based on the users of RPT at runtime? The idea is to use one single RPT file to generate report for different locale text for CrossTab Row and Column abels and grand total labels instead of creating RPT files per locale?

Hi,
Does the database have a column that identifies the language? If it does, then you could create two separate cross-tabs and place them in different sections and conditionally suppress the section depending on the language from the database.
That's the only thing that can be done in my opinion.

Crystal Reports 2008 Pie Chart Data Labels

Hi,
I've been trying to figure out why I cannot get the option to put pie chart data labels in the center of each slice. There's an option to place them there, but everytime I select it, the graph reverts to putting the data labels on the outside with leader lines. I was able to do it once, for one pie chart, but have not been able to get it to work for any others. I've even tried creating a pie with only two slices in case there's a slice size limit below which the data is placed outside. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason why it worked once and now won't work again.
Thanks,
-Jim
Edited by: jwmckay on Apr 23, 2010 7:19 PM

Hi Jim,
The issue could be faced because of the 'Auto-arrange' layout option enabled from Chart Expert within the report.
This option allows Crystal Reports to reset the chart layout to its original size and position
To uncheck the 'Auto-arrange option':
- First Go to Chart Expert-
- Click on the Options Tab
- Uncheck Auto - Arrange
- Click OK
I hope this helps,

Waterfall Diagram with Crystal Reports

Dear Xperts ; )
at the moment we face a problem with creating waterfall diagrams in Crystal Reports based on BEx Queries.
They work very nice with positive values, but not with the negative ones.
Does anyone have experience creating waterfall diagrams?
And btw is it possible to create them also showing negative values?
We found some tools for xcelsius, but not for crystal reports. But we have no xcelsius here at this customer.
I would be very thankful for any hints and tipps.
Thanks in advance.

Benjamin Maier

Hi Benjamin,
Water fall charts are not yet supported with crystal reports.
Please have a look to BusinessObjects note # 1264351 - Waterfall chart in Crystal Reports XI (R2 and 3.0)
For your reference i have paste the content of note:
Symptom
Are Waterfall charts supported in Crystal Reports XI R2 and 3.0?
Reproducing the Issue
Applies to any Crystal Reports version in XI R2 and Crystal Reports 2008
Create or open a Crystal Report in the designer
Insert a chart and try to find the chart type 'Waterfall'
This type cannot be found
Closest type is Stacked bar chart
Cause
Waterfall chart type is not yet supported by Crystal reports.
Resolution
Enhancement Request has been logged: ADAPT01087191
I have checked the status of Adapt its not resolved.
