License for RAS SDK

Hi,
My client is using CRS XIR2. They do not have Crystal Report Explorer license.
They want to have adhoc capability using the CRS XI2. I know with CRE it is easy but is there any other way to provide adhoc capability maybe using SDK.
I got to know that by using RAS SDK you can create crystal report and provide adhoc.
My plan is to create some template reports and using SDK select the fields and prompts. Using the selected fields and prompts run these template reports.
Hence I wanted to know if there is a separate license that is required for using RAS SDK? Or the CRSXIR2 license itself provides the capability to create dynamic reports?
Appreciate your response.
Rahul

The license for Crystal Reports Server includes the usage of the RAS server - which allows you to do ad-hoc reporting.  If you want to use the RCAPI API's (Report Creation API), you will either need to use RAS, or you will need to use .NET with SP2 installed.  (SP2 enables RCAPI for regular non-enterprise .NET apps)
Unfortunately this capability is not yet available in the JRC (it is planned though).
So to summarize:
1. CR Server includes the license to use the RAS server and to do RCAPI
2. If you don't want to use the RAS server, you can use .NET with XI R2 SP2 installed.

    I consult the Diamond Technical Community and I found the issue related to printer name:

    However, I did check the printer name, it is accessible via Windows Explorer.
    Anyone knows how to resolve this?

    It doesn't appear to be listed as a dependency in the developer docs, but would you try putting the ReportPrinter.jar in your RAS app?

  • License for Crystal Report for Visual Studion 2005

    Hi All,
    I am developing reports for my application using crystal reports for VS 2005.  I read on microsoft site (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318102 ) that the free server software supports three active requests to the server.  It further says that developer will need to purchase additional licenses to increase scalability.  I think that our application would need the additional license.  However, i was unable to find a link on business objects site were i can buy the additional license for crystal report for VS 2005.  The link takes me to license for Crystal report 2008.  It would be great if you can answer my following questions:
    - what version of crystal reports do we need to purchase?
    - do we need license for each implementation or do we need license for the developers only.
    Thank you.
    Best regards,

    Great questions! Let's get at em, one at a time:
    How would you define a print job?
    - A print job will essentially be consumed any time the print engine (crpe32.dll) needs to  do work. So, processing one report = a print job. However, say you have one subreport, now the number of print jobs = 2. Now, say the subreport is in the details section and runs once per record. And you have 100 records. You will be running 1 + 100 print jobs. Paging to another page consumes a print job. Zooming consumes a print job, exporting and printing to a printer consumes a print job. So, depending on the report and the number of users, print jobs may be used up quite quickly. You can increase the print job limit by modifying the PrintJobLimit in the registry. For CR 2008, the reg entry is here:
    HKLMsoftware usiness objectssuite 12.0
    eport application serverinprocserver
    (the above is used irrespective of the SDK (CR, RAS, BOE))
    I am not using report viewer to render the report. I use 'ExportToDisk' method to save the report in word or pdf format. Does 'ExportToDisk' make one print job?
    - see above. Again, if the report has a subreport, this will consume at least two print jobs.
    How much time does a typical print job takes to complete?
    - no way to tell in general terms. There are too many variables that will affect this. From how complex the report to database connections to version of runtime
    What care shall I take to reduce the print job time?
    - Best you can do is ensure that you are destroying the report object once you are done with it (report.close, report.dispose)
    Will using Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise increase the number of concurrent print jobs? If yes then by what amount?
    - no it will not
    To utilize Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise, do I just need to use a specific SDK or is there some thing more to it?
    - You do need to use the RAS assemblies for RAS, BOE assemblies for BOE. More information is below.

  • How to create a subreport link programmaticly using java RAS sdk

    Hi,
    I want to create subreport link for couple of main report parameters programmaticly using RAS sdk.

  • How good is the java Ras Sdk in Business objects XI?

    I have programmed some  reports from scratch by using the java ras sdk.
    Somehow I have the feeling that new features of XI like dynamic image location, or
    running totals aren't so well supported as for example through the Crystal report Designer.
    Do others also think that  Business objects is being a bit negligent on this Api?
    Maybe they do not consider the Api as important anymore because most people will be using there web based out of the box jsp components?

    Normally you should run your CR reports in the INfoView. You can start a report either by double clicking on it or by selecting View in the context menu. Still in order to fetch data you have to press the Refresh button in the CR viewer window (in the InfoView).
    In the CMC I assume that you are using the Run now option in the context menu. Please note that this will just schedule your report immediatelly. hen the report is scheduled a new instance is created hich is available in the History of the report. In order to see a report in the CMC select again View in the context menu and you can again fetch data by pressing the Refresh button.

  • Is it OK to open a CR Report with JRC/Gemini which is modified by RAS SDK?

    Dear all
    Is it OK to open a CR Report with JRC/Gemini which is modified by RAS SDK? Especially after I use RAS SDK to change report database location.
    I test it OK, but my Customer need to confirm this.

    RAS SDK - meaning RAS server?
    There's intrinsic limitations for Crystal Reports Java (JRC for CR4E Version 2), such as database connectivity (only Java-based ones) when compared to RAS server.
    But CRJ does support Crystal Reports 2008 reports within those limitations.
    By the way, the new CR4E Version 2 Crystal Reports Java SDK is essentially the in-process RAS SDK - so you can make modifications using that.  Note that JRC SDK (version 11.8 and below) are deprecated with CR4E Version 2), then new way si the the Crystal Reports Java SDK.

  • Crystal Report based on Universe and RAS SDK missing functionality

    Hi,
    In Crystal Report Designer Application i can select Universe as a data source for the Crystal Report and on the query panel construct the actual query using Universe objects and conditions.
    Now, my question is how can i do the same PROGRAMMATICALLY. I.e. i want to make a new or take an existing crystal report, check if it's based on universe, then access the actual universe query structure and construct/modify the query by operating with the actual Universe objects and conditions.
    I tried to use RAS SDK for this, but i could only access Tables that dont even show on which universe they are based on. 
    Should i use some other SDK to do this?
    Thanks,
    Roman.

    Thanks for your response. Ok, if it's so complicated, then i'm not concerned about universe query creation. I have more specific questions now:
    1) You've said that CrystalReport stores Universe SI_CUID values that it connects to. Let's say i have 3 tables based on universes in the report. What is the best way to determing which universe correspond to which table using RAS SDK?
    I looked at ConnectionInfo for each table, it sais that it's based on universe, but it DOES NOT have universe CUID property.
    Using Enterprise SDK i can access SI_UNIVERSE_INFO of ProcessingInfo for report InfoObject and see the list of universes used, but they are not matched to the actual tables, so i cannot really find out which universe belongs to which table.
    2) If EXISTING CrystalReport is based on Universe, is it possible to retrieve the actual universe objects and conditions used in this report? I can see that field names correspond to object names, BUT i also need a parent class name, becuase object is NOT identified by it's name only withing the universe.

  • Interactive Sort using RAS SDK

  • How to create cross tab reports using RAS SDK api with Crystal Reports XI

    Hi Everybody,
    Iam generating reports in a web-based application with Crystal Reports XI using Report Application Server(RAS) SDK API. The columns in my report exceed that of an A4 sized page. So, when I export that report to pdf, only those columns that fit to a page are showing up. To solve, this problem, I thought of using cross tab. But, I donot know how to generate cross tab report using RAS SDK API. I have tried to get some code from the internet. But, I did not find any java code for that.Can some one give me some sample code.It is very urgent.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    The easiest way I use is to create the worksheet as regular table and then when i verify the data I get (non aggregate) I duplicate it as a cross tab.
    In the duplication wizard I just need to define the axis (using drag and drop).
    if you want to create a cross tab from the beginning you need to define that in the new workbook wizard (check the "cross tab" rather then "table"), chose your fields and define the place you want them.
    The data point (the center of the cross tab) is aggregated as to your machine definition and will happen automatically.
    for example: to find the amount of receipt by months:
    On the left put the "Buyer Name", on top put the "Months" and in the data point put the amount.
    What you'll get is something like:
    months: jan feb mar apr ......
    buyer_name
    jhon_smith 100 50 30 250 ......
    jhon_doe 80 45 90 453 ........

  • Developer licensing for CS and CC products

    Hello,
    I am trying to find information on obtaining developer licensing for older Adobe CS and current Adobe CC products.
    I am a software developer and my software interacts with all Mac Desktop applications via Apple's Accessibility API. In order to ensure proper communication between my app and Adobe Apps, I need to be able to run Adobe Apps for the purpose of testing. Ideally, I am hoping that Adobe has a developer program or is able to (on a case-by-case basis) provide licenses to a developer either a) at a discount or b) do some sort of license trade. If anyone know who to contact or what options are available, I would really appreciate some assistance. I have looked at the Adobe developer programs and SDK's, but that is not what I am looking for. I am not developing add-ons for Adobe products but rather I need to test that my software works properly with the dozens of Adobe applications. As an independent developer purchasing licenses for all Adobe products is not an option. Additionally, I need to be able to test older versions of Adobe Apps such as the CS5 and CS6, so I need access to that software as well.
    Ensuring compatibility of my Accessibility application with Adobe products has proven to be a nearly impossible task due to the inconsistent behavior of some Adobe applications. I put a lot of time and effort into making sure my software works with all applications and Adobe products seem to be the most troublesome. Most non-Adobe applications work perfectly with my application and it seems that every version of every Adobe app requires special coding within my app to accommodate Adobe apps. It would be great if Adobe could somehow accommodate my licensing needs.
    Specifically, I am looking for answers to the following questions:
    Does Adobe offer free/discounted developer licenses for the purpose of compatibility testing?
    Does any Adobe developer program allow access to the entire Adobe product line going back as far as CS5?
    Who do I contact at Adobe to discuss my needs and possible solutions?
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    In order to gain access to older versions you would have to have an existing license that entitle you to use them, but otherwise it's only Creative Cloud and a bit of CS6 from here on, with even CS6 phasing out. Since you are not developing actual Adobe software, this also severely limits your chances of being accepted into any Beta/ Developer program, but feel free to try:
    http://prerelease.adobe.com/
    Note that there is no global CC program and the applications are handled individually for every app. It's entirely up to the teams to let you in or kick you out.

  • Setting the height of detail section with RAS SDK

    Hi, all,
    is it possible to locate a section (CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.Section) in a reportk you and set its maximum height?
    When I find a detail section in question like so section = reportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportDefinition.DetailArea.Sections[counter];
    it just gives me the height of one row.
    Is there a way to set a maximum size of it?
    Thank you!

    Hi Jelena,
    see the below sample to add a new section to the report.
    http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-6025
    in the sample, see below code how the section properties are set.
    //Set the properties for the section
        boSection.Kind = CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.CrAreaSectionKindEnum.crAreaSectionKindDetail;
        boSection.Name = "Detail2";
        boSection.Height = 1000;
