No data in report after auto linking tables

Hi All,
I m new to Crystal Reports 2008 and I have a report that takes data from multiple database tables. The problem is that the report is not returning any data. On the Links tab in Database Expert, I checked that the tables are linked. I removed all links and added the links back one-by-one to see where I get the problem of not getting data in the report. I have pointed out the link, but I dont know how to fix the problem of not getting the data in the report because i need data from that table which means that I would need to select it and link it in the report.
Please help me with this.
Thank you.

You know your data and what you want to get out of it, typically it's the join type, Left Outer etc. or possibly using Unions and SELECT's in SELECTS. Lots of ways to accomplish the results but without knowing your data structure I can't be specific.
Possibly if you list the fields you want to use and the tables you get the info from it would help to suggest how. If Jason Long see's this post and you give the info he will likely suggest something also, he's a SQL GURU....
Need to know what type of DB also.
Another great source is looking at our sample reports:

Failed to read data from report file Reason: The table could not be found.

Connection used Views, ODBC System DSN is setup properly.
Approach for import from business view manager and import wizard. both methods failed to import the Business View and underlying reports.
I figure I may have imported the Business View wrong? From Business View Manager I exported from my dev server then imported to prod server.
Apparently I learned exporting my business view also includes the Data Connections that the Business Views are dependent upon.
So which ever folder you specify it copies it there. Originally the all Data Connections Resides on the root folder. To return it to the original location. I deleted what I had exported. Exported this time to the root folder, then only deleted the business views, foundation, elements. Then exported again to the folder where I intended then only deleted the Data Connection.
Makes any sense? So I then had to re point the business views and all the dependent objects to the data connection that resides in the root folder.
I tested the connection, it works fine. I properly updated my crystal reports to the business view in production. Did a sample extract it works as expected.
However when i try to publish, either from Crystal or Publish wizard i get the same error?
As a work around i am thinking, after updating the business view in the crystal reports, shall i re map the fields?? or reexport the business views again?
Any help will be surely appreciated.

No data in reports after upgrade to CRJ

After upgrading from Crystal Reports 10 JRC to Crystal for Eclipse CRJ, we have a few of reports that are returning no data.
Out of 50 reports only 3 do not return data the rest are fine.
We have a jsp page which passes a couple parameters to the crystal report.
The report appears in the browser, however no data is there.
We are passing a date parameter to the report, the report will use this parameter to call stored procedure
in MS SQL database.
I can see the date parameter is passed to the report sucessfully as it appears on the report.
I opened the report in Crystal Reports and tried the following:
1) went to Database >> Verify Database
2) went to Show SQL Query
3) went to Report >> Refresh Report Data ...i got data to appear in the report.

The two things I can think of if deleting the links between the tables fixes it are:
1. Since the report was written in CR 10 or earlier and migrated to the CRJ, maybe it doesn't like something in the internals of the report. There are two things you can try:
A. re-write the report from scratch using the CR for Eclipse Designer or CR 2008.
B. load the current report into the CR for Eclipse Designer and see if it works there.
The CR for Eclipse Designer is different than the CR 2008 Designer in that it uses the actual Java jars to render the report that the CRJ uses. CR 2008 Designer was written in C++ and uses a different rendering engine. This means that in the CR4E Designer, you should see the exact same behavior as your web app, so it'll be easier to tweak the report to get it working, if that's what's needed.
2. Use your database profiler to find out exactly what SQL is being sent. Compare the SQL between the old JRC and the current CRJ. If they're different, does the current SQL return the data you're looking for? If not, and the old one does, then that would appear to indicate that the current SQL engine has something wrong with it and you should open a case to get it addressed.
Good luck!

Trigger a Report after a Database table is loaded

Hello,
Does anyone know a good way to trigger a Webi report to run or not run based on if the data is loaded in to the dirving table? I need to stop a report from running if the data in the table loads late, but not sure the best way to make this work.
Thanks,
Tammy

If your database can write a file to a specific location, you could make it trigger the creation of an event on your Webi server. You can then use this as an event to wait for in your scheduling parameters under events.

Problem in displaying data onto Form after selecting from table.

Hi there,
I keep hitting this error when I tried to display the data after the selection from table. Using backing beans w data control to do it
Err: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.util.Collections$SingletonList cannot be cast to java.lang.Integer
Table used ArrayList to retrieve out the wanted data. E.g uses A object
To display: selected data to retrieve the selected row to display as a read-only form layout below the table. E.g. need to get A.getName() to match with B object B.getName() then uses the B object to retrieve out the data.
Anyone know how to do it?

Hi
use the follwing code
int rowcount = wdContext.node<Name>().size();

Crystal Reports with Graphical Linking on Multiple Data source

Hello
I have a report which uses graphical linking on 6 tables/views which acts as the data source.
4 are on HANA and 2 on a legacy system.
Record selection filters are applied to filter data.
Report's performance is incredibly slow on running for higher date ranges even for less than a month bringing back < 10000 records.
Please suggest any tips to improve this.
already tried below :
Checked no printer option
Removed Page N of M control
Changed Order links to pick small tables first
Crystal Reports 2013 connecting via ODBC to HANA and legacy
-Jayakrishnan

Hi Jayakrishnan,
When you join tables from multiple datasources, CR processes the joins and any record selection criteria locally. This is what slows down the report.
The only way to speed up performance is to have all the data atleast come from the same database or even better, creating a view that has all the required tables and joins.

Crystal report XI error while Linking tables

We have just purchased Crystal Report XI license copy but as we going to create new report there is problem in linking tables
i.e while pressing LINK tab after selecting ODBC databse name application going shut down.Please suggest.Thanks in advance

I would make verify the database within Crystal report and then re publish it again. It seems it doesn't get the connection to the db.
Have you refreshed the database within Crystal Reports?
As Graham said, does it open in Crystal Viewer?
another thing would be to add the DSN (System DSN) onto your client machine as well. Maybe it is not getting a right connection.
Try it and let us know.
Kind Regards

Insert data into linked table

Problem when you try to insert data into linked table.
I made the view with all linked table columns (field1 is PK, field2, field3......) plus new primary key field "field1_PK" for tabular form wizard primary key field definition. After submit data on tabular form appears:
"Error in mru internal routine:ORA-2001:Error in MRU: row=1,ORA-00957: duplicate column name ORA-02063:preciding line from "SHEMA_NAME", insert into "field1","field1_PK","field3",........) values (:b1,:b2,:b3.........)
Error Unable to process update.
Is it bug too?

Hi,
Have you tried to do your updates using an INSTEAD OF TRIGGER on your view? An INSTEAD OF TRIGGER allows you to update a non-updateable view.
The following book contains an excellent introduction to this topic.
"Oracle PL/SQL for Dummies"
written by Rosenblum and Dorsey
published by Wiley Publishing Inc.
The following book is also excellant reference that deals with INSTEAD OF TRIGGERS.

Hope this helps.

Loans disappear from report after fields from second table are added

We are using Crystal XI. We have two tables from a sequel database we use for the reports, and we always have. Suddenly, we have been experiencing problems with loans being dropped from the reports and we have been trying to isolate the problem. To troubleshoot, I created a very simple report to provide the loan number and the borrower name from Table 1. I did not create any parameters so the report provided the information for all loans in the database. However, when I add a field to the report from Table 2, either all of the loans disappear or the number of loans on the report are drastically reduced.
As another test, I created a report to include just the loan number. The loan number field appears in both tables. I get different results if add the loan number to the report from Table 1 than I get if I add the loan number to the report from Table 2. When I create the report, the tables auto-link with no errors.
I have reviewed all the report options and general options in Crystal and can't find why this is occurring. I have had our IT staff troubleshoot and help me test using older versions of the tables, but we get the same results. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

From what you have described, could it be your table joins? You mention that once you add the second table, records get dropped.
Check your table join, even though it auto links, right click on the link and see if the join is INNER or LEFT OUTER.
If INNER then every loan number in Table 1 should exist in Table 2, LEFT OUTER = every loan number in table 1 will be fetched irrespective of whether it has a corresponding match in table 2 or not.
Check your joins and change them and see if that makes a difference.

How to create a table report with alphabetic link at the top

Hello,
I have a db table of users, and have created a report based on this table, however I want to have each aphabet letter at the top of the report so that users can click on the letter and see all records where the username field starts with that letter.
How can I achieve this?
Thanks,

Hello user11243298 (please tell us your name),
Your report query would look something like this (assuming page number is 1):
select some_column1, some_column2
from your_user_table
where username like :P1_INITIAL || '%'
For the letters at the top of the report, here's a couple options:
- If you want all letters to appear whether or not there are any rows, you can create a series of buttons or links, one for each letter, and specify the target URL to submit back to the report page, setting the item P1_INITIAL to each letter.
- If you want only letters that have rows, one way is to create a dynamic LOV based on a query like this:
select distinct upper(substr(username, 1, 1)) d, distinct upper(substr(username, 1, 1)) v
from your_user_table
order by upper(substr(username, 1, 1))
Then use that for a select list with submit, again targeting the report page and setting P1_INITIAL to the selected value.
Hope this helps (if it does, please reward it),
John

How to Bind a Combo Box so that it retrieves and display content corresponding to the Id in a link table and populates itself with the data in the main table?

I am developing a desktop application in Wpf using MVVM and Entity Frameworks. I have the following tables:
1. Party (PartyId, Name)
2. Case (CaseId, CaseNo)
3. Petitioner (CaseId, PartyId) ............. Link Table
I am completely new to .Net and to begin with I download Microsoft's sample application and
following the pattern I have been successful in creating several tabs. The problem started only when I wanted to implement many-to-many relationship. The sample application has not covered the scenario where there can be a any-to-many relationship. However
with the help of MSDN forum I came to know about a link table and managed to solve entity framework issues pertaining to many-to-many relationship. Here is the screenshot of my application to show you what I have achieved so far.
And now the problem I want the forum to address is how to bind a combo box so that it retrieves Party.Name for the corresponding PartyId in the Link Table and also I want to populate it with Party.Name so that
users can choose one from the dropdown list to add or edit the petitioner.

Hello Barry,
Thanks a lot for responding to my query. As I am completely new to .Net and following the pattern of Microsoft's Employee Tracker sample it seems difficult to clearly understand the concept and implement it in a scenario which is different than what is in
the sample available at the link you supplied.
To get the idea of the thing here is my code behind of a view vBoxPetitioner:
<UserControl x:Class="CCIS.View.Case.vBoxPetitioner"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:v="clr-namespace:CCIS.View.Case"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:CCIS.ViewModel.Case"
mc:Ignorable="d"
d:DesignWidth="300"
d:DesignHeight="200">
<UserControl.Resources>
<DataTemplate DataType="{x:Type vm:vmPetitioner}">
<v:vPetitioner Margin="0,2,0,0" />
</DataTemplate>
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid>
<HeaderedContentControl>
<HeaderedContentControl.Header>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Right">
<TextBlock Margin="2">
<Hyperlink Command="{Binding Path=AddPetitionerCommand}">Add Petitioner</Hyperlink>
| <Hyperlink Command="{Binding Path=DeletePetitionerCommand}">Delete</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
</StackPanel>
</HeaderedContentControl.Header>
<ListBox BorderThickness="0" SelectedItem="{Binding Path=CurrentPetitioner, Mode=TwoWay}" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=tblParties}" />
</HeaderedContentControl>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
This part is working fine as it loads another view that is vPetioner perfectly in the manner I want it to be.
Here is the code of vmPetitioner, a ViewModel:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System.Collections.ObjectModel
Imports System
Imports CCIS.Model.Party
Namespace CCIS.ViewModel.Case
''' <summary>
''' ViewModel of an individual Email
''' </summary>
Public Class vmPetitioner
Inherits vmParty
''' <summary>
''' The Email object backing this ViewModel
''' </summary>
Private petitioner As tblParty
''' <summary>
''' Initializes a new instance of the EmailViewModel class.
''' </summary>
''' <param name="detail">The underlying Email this ViewModel is to be based on</param>
Public Sub New(ByVal detail As tblParty)
If detail Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("detail")
End If
Me.petitioner = detail
End Sub
''' <summary>
''' Gets the underlying Email this ViewModel is based on
''' </summary>
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property Model() As tblParty
Get
Return Me.petitioner
End Get
End Property
''' <summary>
''' Gets or sets the actual email address
''' </summary>
Public Property fldPartyId() As String
Get
Return Me.petitioner.fldPartyId
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
Me.petitioner.fldPartyId = value
Me.OnPropertyChanged("fldPartyId")
End Set
End Property
End Class
End Namespace
And below is the ViewMode vmParty which vmPetitioner Inherits:
Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic
Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports CCIS.Model.Case
Imports CCIS.Model.Party
Imports CCIS.ViewModel.Helpers
Namespace CCIS.ViewModel.Case
''' <summary>
''' Common functionality for ViewModels of an individual ContactDetail
''' </summary>
Public MustInherit Class vmParty
Inherits ViewModelBase
''' <summary>
''' Gets the underlying ContactDetail this ViewModel is based on
''' </summary>
Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property Model() As tblParty
'''' <summary>
'''' Gets the underlying ContactDetail this ViewModel is based on
'''' </summary>
'Public MustOverride ReadOnly Property Model() As tblAdvocate
''' <summary>
''' Gets or sets the name of this department
''' </summary>
Public Property fldName() As String
Get
Return Me.Model.fldName
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
Me.Model.fldName = value
Me.OnPropertyChanged("fldName")
End Set
End Property
''' <summary>
''' Constructs a view model to represent the supplied ContactDetail
''' </summary>
''' <param name="detail">The detail to build a ViewModel for</param>
''' <returns>The constructed ViewModel, null if one can't be built</returns>
Public Shared Function BuildViewModel(ByVal detail As tblParty) As vmParty
If detail Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("detail")
End If
Dim e As tblParty = TryCast(detail, tblParty)
If e IsNot Nothing Then
Return New vmPetitioner(e)
End If
Return Nothing
End Function
End Class
End Namespace
And final the code behind of the view vPetitioner:
<UserControl x:Class="CCIS.View.Case.vPetitioner"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
xmlns:vm="clr-namespace:CCIS.ViewModel.Case"
mc:Ignorable="d"
Width="300">
<UserControl.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary Source=".\CompactFormStyles.xaml" />
</UserControl.Resources>
<Grid>
<Border Style="{StaticResource DetailBorder}">
<Grid>
<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" />
<ColumnDefinition Width="*" />
</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
<TextBlock Grid.Column="0" Text="Petitioner:" />
<ComboBox Grid.Column="1" Width="240" SelectedValuePath="." SelectedItem="{Binding Path=tblParty}" ItemsSource="{Binding Path=PetitionerLookup}" DisplayMemberPath="fldName" />
</Grid>
</Border>
</Grid>
</UserControl>
The problem, presumably, seems to be is that the binding path "PetitionerLookup" of the ItemSource of the Combo box in the view vPetitioner exists in a different ViewModel vmCase which serves as an ObservableCollection for MainViewModel. Therefore,
what I need to Know is how to route the binding path if it exists in a different ViewModel?
Sir, I look forward to your early reply bringing a workable solution to the problem I face.
Warm Regards,
Arun

Data guard synchronization after link down b/w primary and physical standby

Hi All,
I have configured data guard on oracle 11gr2 db. Normally switchover between my primary and physical standby happens smoothly and the Apply lag would be zero. Recently We had to test a scenario when the network link between Primary and Physical standby is completely down and Physical standby is isolated completely for more than half an hour.
When we brought up the link every thing worked smoothly but apply lag started increasing from 0 to around 3 hrs. And then it started reducing to 0. Currently Apply lag and transport lag shows 0.
But is this normal behaviour of oracle data guard that when the link between primary and physical standby is completely down, It requires 3-4 hrs for resynchronization ??? Even when during isolation, there were very few transactions happend on primary database ??
Are there any documents available for this scenario??
Thanks

Hi, after the link is up, if there were some transactions and produced archive logs it's normal to take some time for resync. To check if 3-4 hours is normal or not, you can repeat the scenario and this time check
- how many archivelogs does primary produce in this period.
- after the link is up, does archivelog transfer immediately starts from primary to standby? Is primary able to send these archivelogs parallel?
- Is there anything wrong with the apply process?
check primary & standby alert log files, and run this query on standby to check the transport and apply processes:
SELECT PROCESS, STATUS, THREAD#, SEQUENCE#, BLOCK#, BLOCKS FROM V$MANAGED_STANDBY;

Why data change in linked table in Access - link from Oracle DB

Can someone please help me to solve this situation? I try to find out why data is changed from Oracle to Access. I must come back to this thread because lot of data in my Oracle database is defined as NUMBER(22), and I am using Access heavily.
Here is the problem:
In Access, I created ODBC connection (System DSN) to Oracle 9.2 database by using Oracle driver (NOT Microsoft ODBC for Oracle). Then I linked tables from Access with the Oracle table. What happens is that the number in Access linked table is displayed as a scientific number. Is there a way that I can preserve whatever I have in Oracle database?
For example:
Comp_ID in Oralce is defined as NUMBER(22) = 40000000000324003; In Access it looks like this 4.0000000000324E+16.
What I have in my system:
1- Oracle 9.2 client
2- Oracle driver
3- Access 2003
4- Jet - SP 8
