CA Forum: General
Hi,Does anyone know if there is a limit to the number of rows that can be displayed in a dynamic parameter? I have set up a parameter that needs to let the user choose from 2700 book titles A-Z. But it only show titles A-R. -Marc

It is limited to 1000 rows by default. Check this KBase article on how to increase the number.

Is it feasible to set the rows displayed per page dynamically?

Hi,
Is it feasible to set the rows displayed per page dynamically in the table view result as per the user wants eg : the user wishes to see only 25 records or all the records?
Also what is the maximum limit of rows that can be fetched as per the entry in instanceconfig.xml :
<ResultRowLimit>65000</ResultRowLimit>
Is there a limit for number of rows being displayed in table view?
thanks

TopN limit on pivot table row display, not selection

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a pivot table which only displays the top 20 rows of data I'm interested in. I know I can filter the data with the TopN function or one of the columns "is in top n" filter, but I'm displaying the data as a percentage, and I want these to accurately refelect the full data available not only the items displayed:
Example:
Text-Description 1, 160, 80%
Text-Description 2, 20, 10%
Text-Description 3, 10, 5%
Text-Description 4, 10, 5%
Say I want to only show the top 2 rows, and get:
Text-Description 1, 160, 80%
Text-Description 2, 20, 10%
Whereas what I actually get is:
Text-Description 1, 160, 88.8%
Text-Description 2, 20, 11.1%
The percentage figure is calculated from the data selected, not just to limit the rows displayed. My other way through this is to get the "text description" to also have a conditional field that returns "Others" that uses the TopN function, where I'd get:
Text-Description 1, 160, 80%
Text-Description 2, 20, 10%
Others, 20, 10%
Does anyone have any other ideas?
Thanks in advance

Create a dashboard prompt and set the formula as i and set it to edit box and give the presentation variable name.
use this presentation variable in topn function like
TOPN(column,@{variablename}{defaultvalue})

How to control number of rows displayed in a report by user?

Hi All!
I have provided a select list called 'Number of rows' in my report page.User can choose any number in the list, and accordingly he should be able to see so many number of rows in that report page.
For example: if user selects 50 from the list, he will be able to see 50 records at a time out of say 2000 records retrieved. I want to control number of rows displayed per page dynamically. And if he selects 25 in the select list, he should be able to see 25 records at a time out of 2000.
How to do it? Please give me ideas.
Thanking in advance.
Regards,
Deepika.

Hi Deepika,
If you have a Select List with Submit called, say "P1_ROWS", you just enter P1_ROWS into the Report Attribute's "Number of Rows (Item)" setting.

Limit dynamic parameter list to data added in last month

I have a crystal reports X1 report that uses a dynamic parameter for users to select. This parameter displays all database entries for the field. The field is called PLANNAME and lists out names that users have entered from the main application screens. I want to limit the display of these plan names to the most recent based on the CREATEDATE which is a field on the table that the Planname is stored.
Is there a way that Crystal reports can restrict / limit the list of vaules returned and available for report users to select. The list is steadily growing, and now requires the report users to scroll through hundreds of plannames (that is, all the plan names that have been created over the last two years).
Look forward to any suggestions.
Regards
dave

Just a follow-up on progress ...... which has been a bit slow.
Have got into the Business View Manager and found the vaious parameter levels PLANNAME DC, PLANNAME_BE, PLANNAME_BV, PLANNAME_DF, and added the following filter to the data_foundation: (note: first part is a View I have created, )
{CRYSTALVW_EFTPLANDETAIL.PLANNAME} in LastFullMonth.
I have not been able to add the SQL expression as it errors with reference to the INCORRECT SYNTAX NEAR THE KEYWORD "select"
SELECT DISTINCT PLANNAME, DATECREATED FROM CRYSTALVW_EFTPLANDETAIL WHERE DATECREATED >= '2009-01-01'
Note, this works okat in Enterprise manager Query Analyser, but not in the DF data_foundation.
and the suggestion you made:
SELECT DISTINCT PLANNAME FROM CRYSTALVW_EFTPLANDETAIL WHERE DATECREATED >= DATEADD('m',-1,GETDATE())
This produces the same error message - INCORRECT SYNTAX NEAR THE KEYWORD "select"
and I can not get this to work in Query Analyser - error message is
Server: Msg 1023, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Invalid parameter 1 specified for dateadd.
I shall continue to work thru this, but would appreciate any helpful hints.
many thanks
Dave

How to display dynamic parameter picklist based on other parameter?

The report uses two parameters 1. Order placed date and 2. Sales Agent name. First parameter (Order placed date) is a static date range that allows users to enter a date range to run the report. The second parameter is a dynamic parameter that displays Sales Agent names as a picklist. Users can select one or more agent names. This pick list is generated using a SQL command.
We would like to display the names of Sales agents (in the parameter pick list) who were active (i.e. who took orders) between the date range selected in the first parameter.
Currently the picklist, lists names of ALL sales agents (about 100) irrespective of the date selected in first parameter. So, users are forced to go through the entire list of agents instead of agents that were active during that period.
We are using CR 2008 on Edge 3.1.
Any elegant way to achieve this? Your help is appreciated.
Regards,
Mohit.

I realized that the question got posted in Bus Objects General forum and have reposted it in Crystal Reports Design forum (as originally intended). Sorry for the confusion.

Dynamic Parameter Record Limit

I am using Crystal 2008 with universes as a data source with BOE XI 3.0 (Edge) Infoview and need to create parameter fields that return greater than 1,000 records. I have seen suggestions about modifying the local workstation registry, and also found a reference to an earlier version of BOE (SAP Note 1199759) about modifying the LOV batch size for custom sorting. The latter refers to a Web Intelligence setting, so I'm not sure if it affects parameters in Crystal Reports.
Which is the correct method to resolve this issue my versions of Crystal and BOE?

Hi
we need to make changes for CR so that it fetches more than 1000 records.
Please refer to 1218588 - How to increase the number of values in a dynamic parameter list and make the necessary registry changes.
Hope this helps!!

Limiting rows displayed from user-selection on dashboard prompt

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to limit the number of rows displayed after a user has made a selection using a dashboard prompt. Here is my scenario:
User selects 24 periods of data using an 'In Between' dashboard prompt (i.e. Jan05-Dec06). 24 rows are returned by the query but I only want to show the last 12 rows (Jan06-Dec06).
Motivation is that I'm using the MSUM function to display a 12-month moving sum total and I don't want to display the first 12 rows as they do not contain a complete moving sum total.
I've looked at using a variable to store the user selection at the dashboard prompt, but the 'In Between' dashboard prompt does not allow one to store a result in a variable.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks!

Hi Som,
Thanks again for your feedback. I've thought about using dynamic repository variables, but found them not to be the answer. Although the moving sum would always be a 12 month total, the user needs to be able to vary the range of periods using the dashboard prompt. Today he might only want to look back 12 months, tomorrow he may need a 5 year overview. Using dynamic repository variables would mean I'd have to create variables for the entire history i.e. CM until CM - 240 (20 years * 12 months). If a user then would like to report on a specific period, he would need to pick the correct dynamic variables, which would not be user friendly/acceptable.
I think I may need to resolve this problem in my datamart by calculating & storing a 12 month total (the only 'fixed' requirement of the report) in my fact table. This would also remove the need for the user to select 12 months more that he would see in his report (a drawback of my original scenario above).
Thanks again for your input!

Dutch

CR2011 Dynamic Parameter does not show list at all

I am upgrading some Crystal Reports from CR 8.5 to 2011. Some would be better served by using a dynamic parameter to allow the user to select the data for the parameter from the database information. I have created a dynamic parameter on the Customer ID and set the description to be the customer name. I have set it to handle multiple values.
When I preview the report in the Crystal designer, I get a text box to type in but not a drop down. To be clear, I am not talking about the LOV 1000 limit here. There are only 50 customers in the sample file I am working with. I tried turning the static parameter into a dynamic one, I deleted the original parameter and created a new one.
In case it matters, the parameter is only used as part of the selection formula and if I enter a proper customer id, it will retrieve the data. This report has about 7 tables (no stored procedures or views) and a subreport of two tables that is linked to the main report on the customer id. The parameter is only used on the main report for record selection. The SQL statement in the main report and subreport did need to be reset when I first opened the report in CR2011 but I did that on both. I have verified the database and the option to verify on first refresh is checked. The original parameter did have an imported list of about 3000 customer names. I tried exporting the CR template to a new file and while the file size changed, the behaviour did not.
When I create a brand new report on two of the tables, including the same customer table, and create the parameter the same way, it shows me the list properly in a dropdown at the prompt stage.
I am not sure where to go here or what else to try. If anyone has any suggestions, I appreciate the help. TIA, rasinc

Thank for the reply Dell,
I see the logic in adding the extra table and keeping it unlinked and I do know the crazy data that can come up if I use it linked to other tables or use the fields in other parts of the programming.
However, I've now tried it several times, creating the parameter on just the name alone, with the ID alone, etc. and I still only get a text box to type into.
I have made sure the original selection criteria
{customer.Id} = {?Customer}
if from the original table, not the new one, which I assume you expected me to do.
So I decided to run the same report through CR XIR2. When I update the Set Datasource Location, I am now getting the message
"Invalid Argument provided.
Details: The alias requested 'company', contains a combination of characters which is not considered to be valid"
Company is a table containing information about the main company, not the customers. The same message pops up for another table as well.
Then I get a message that says:
"Prompting failed with the following error message: 'List of Values failure: fail to get values. [Cause of error: The table company does not exist in the document.]'
Error source: prompt.dll Error code: 0x8004380D"
This appears to be a database access issue but I know the firewalls are not a problem because I can create a new report and get the LOV properly with the same database and same desktop computer. I can take that report created in CR2011 and use it in CRXI also and get the proper LOV. Is it possible I am dealing with template corruption because there were so many items imported into the static list before?

Hi, Do you mean to say,
You have an HTML page in which you have a text field and an add button. If you enter anything in that text field and click on Add button the text field contents should be displayed in the same HTML page and you should be able to go on entering new values into the text field and you should be able to retain and display all the previously entered values..
and finally the list of added items are not stored in the database..
If this is the case
i. Your html form should be submitted to the same page.
ii. You need to have a Vector which holds the entered values.
iii. Bind the vector object to the request object and collect the same vector object from the request and display its contents...
I think this would help...

The number of rows displayed in a JTable

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how I choose the number of rows displayed in a JTable? My table displays 25 rows, and thats a bit too many.
Thanks.

You dont need to do much.. I think you just have to initialze the table with ..
JTablt t = new JTable(rows,cols);
and make sure to make the 'rows' parameter to whatever u want. :-)
Cheers

Changing the default number of rows displayed in a interactive report

Hi,
I have a sql query based interactive report but i cant change the default number of pages i.e 15.
is there any way to change the number of rows displayed.
Thank you,
rakesh

Hi,
That was very useful document that you shared, yes that is correct we can so it this way but there is another way doing it where in if you go to the report attribute section and in that there is Layout and Pagination and under
that you can fix the number of rows, and over there we can also accept values from page item such as if the page item value changes the number of rows displayed in the report changes dynamically.
In my report i get only pagination but not a option for layout.
Any help will be appreciated.
And also where i can get the links to the similar document that you have shared ?
TY

Number of rows displayed per page in an interactive report

Hi,
I'd like to know if it's possible to change the values of the select list called 'Rows' in an interactive report (which is displayed in the search bar).
Indeed, I want to display 16 rows per page and I can only choose among the values 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 100, 200...
Thank you for your reply.
Emilie.

Hi Tobias,
Thank you for your help.
I had already tried this but it's not what I want. What your are saying only limits the values in the select list (for example, if I set to 16, I can't choose values higher than 16 in the select list 'Rows' of the search bar).
I want to limit the number of rows displayed in the interactive report to 16 per page.
Any other idea?
Emilie.
Hi Emilie,
Go: Home>Application Builder>Application 301>Page 51>Interactive Report Attributes>Search Bar>Maximum Rows Per Page
Set to = 16

Dynamic Parameter Prompting for Database Connection Password

Post Author: rsharp
CA Forum: Publishing
Hi
I've been finding recently that reports using dynamic parameters and published into Crystal Server prompt for the database connection password when the dynamic parameter is accessed. Thing is, this only started happening recently for new and already existing reports with dynamic parameters and I don't know why. In Crystal Reports the dynamic parameter can be accessed without a database connection prompt being displayed but not after publishing. (Maybe there's a problem with the Publishing Wizard?) Static parameters work just fine just as they always have, but I'm a bit mystified by the fact that dynamic parameters used to work (without prompting) but now they don't. Any advice or opinion would be much appreciated.

from the CMC you have to set the default connection or wat connection should this report use,
go to this report in CMC, click process tab, and check the connection

Can't delete dynamic parameter after deleting command

I have a report that I inherited. It used commands instead of stored procedures to retrieve the data. I needed the data in a stored procedure, so I went through and systematically switched everything over to the stored procedure fields. When I thought I had it all moved over to the new fields, I deleted the commands. I then went to publish the report using the Publishing Wizard. It told me that I had unused parameters. When I went back to check the report, I found 2 unused parameters. I tried to delete or edit them and I can't do either function (I click the delete or edit option and nothing happens). I tried adding the command back in, but I still couldn't delete them. The parameters are definitely not being used anywhere in the report because: 1) I have checked everywhere and 2) they do not display the usual check mark when a field is being used.
This is an extremely complex report, and it is database intensive on a production server (I've brought the system and its users to its knees by attempting to run the report. It is designed to run at 5am and it still takes an hour). So, I'd really rather not recreate the report.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I saw someone else had this issue in April, 2007 (Can't delete a dynamic parameter from report), but it never got resolved (I imagine the user recreated the report).
Thanks.
Lisa

Lisa,
Just taking a guess here (being that I've never seen this happen before)...
1st thing I'd try... Go back to an unaltered version of the report. and see if you can delete the parameter prior to any other modifications.
2nd thing... Add the parameter to the report design and refresh. This should cause the parameters to prompt for values. Hopefully this will, in turn, allow you to modify the parameters.
