Page headers in cross tab report

Hi,
I have created addon in SAP B1 2007A PL 46. This includes crystal reports that use .net crystal runtimes.
One of the reports is crosstab report.
It is required that each result page of report display a header. When I set it in page header section, it comes up only on the last page.
Text in Report header comes up on the first page.
This cross tab report spans multiple pages horizontally.
Can anybody help me in this.
Regards
Trupti Mahurkar

The page header in this multi page report would be acrossing all pages. You may edit it to across the whole range to duplicate the first page header manually. You may set up Preview Start Pages Start with - Fit Page under report option to set them up.
Thanks,
Gordon

How to add an image or static text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report

Hi, I use Crustal 11.0.
I have a cross Tab. I display the items on the left column and the months horizontally, the items are grouped by category field. The values are the sum of quantities are displayed for each month. Like this:
                         Items         Jan       Feb       March .....................Total

The problem, I want to add a page header for each page of the report.
When Crystal reports first displays my cross-tab in the designer, CR displays the cross tab in the Report header section. I d like to add text or image for each page and not only at the begining of my Cross-Tab.
If I just add an image or text at the top of the report designer, which is my report header, I get the image or text only on the begining of the 1st page of my report but never in the other following pages.
If I try to work around the problem and move the cross Tab to a group section instead, and then put the Image in the group header, I get what I want, but the problem is that:
The columns header: Jan, February....December are displayed for each group of my report and not only in the beginning of the report. I get something like this:
                         Items         Jan       Feb       March .....................Total

You see the months get duplicated. Any way, my real need is to add an image or text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Divya,
you could do for example in the wdDoInit() of the view
wdContext.currentContextElement().setPicture("picture.gif");
Now you assign this context variable to the Tab using the Tab_header's imageSource-Property. When you click on its value column, you see a button with three dots on it. If you click on this button, you will get all context nodes and attributes for this View. Usable variables are clearly marked, you now choose the one named Picture or what ever name you prefer to use. But it must correspond to the one set in the wdDoInit.
I think setting a picture (not necessarily for the tab-page) is done in one of the excellent tutorials. If you are a newcomer I strongly recommend doing some of the tutorials. I have learned tremendously from them.
Hope this helped

You need to put your title in the page header if you want it to appear on every page. The report header only displays once per report.

Row Headers in Cross Tab Report -Crystal Report XI

I am trying to create a cross tab report. The report has 4 rows and the columns get generated based on the value of a database field.
I have 2 questions
Question 1 : I want the rows to have headers. I insert text objects in the report and when I run the report in crystal, the headers are displaying as required. But when I export to excel, the headers are displayed after the data. How can I create row headers and get them exported to excel as row headers.
Question 2: I am creating the column based on a database field. The field is of text data type. The sorting for this filed is 1. abc ,10. abc , 11.abc , 2.abc , 3.abc ; etc where abc is a text string. How can I sort the columns so that the columns appear as 1.abc, 2.abc, 3.abc etc.
I tried using the specified order sorting, but when I check the list of values that it creates to select the values, it is truncating the values. I can only see part of the values from the database.
Please Help!!!

I don't have Crystal in front of me so I will try to do this from memory. If you right click on a report object, there is option on one of the tabs (I think it is General) that says Display String with a corresponding X button. If you click on that, then you can enter a text expression that overrides the actual value of the report object.
In your case, if you want to add a static header text to the row data, you could try something like the following:
if Gender = "M"
then "Mr. " + CurrentFieldValue
else "Ms. " + CurrentFieldValue
where Gender is a field object in the report and CurrentFieldValue is the data object specified for rows in the cross-tab.
If you wanted to put header on the previous line, you could try something like this:
"Account ID" + chr(13) + CurrentFieldValue
where CurrentFieldValue is the account ID string.

Who expects this looks nothing like your actual report but hopefully it works as an example...

Page Footer on Cross Tab Reports

How do I get the page footer to show up on all the pages of the Cross-Tab. I have a report where the columns spill over to the second page, but nothing from the footer prints on the second page. It is only printing on the first page.

I also have a similar problem on cross-tab reports when the rows result in additional pages.
If I place the page numbers in the page footer, it only appears on the last page of the report. If I place the page numbers anywhere else on the report, it doesn't show up at all, on any pages. Where can I place it so it will print all the pages, regardless of the number of pages that result because of the growing columns or rows?
Thanks.

How to insert page number on each page for Cross-Tab report?

Hi,
I have created a Cross-Tab in the section Report Header via Crystal Reports 11.
Now, I want to created more Cross-Tabs, and each page has one Cross-Tab.
So, I insert Report Headers to contain Cross-Tabs. But, the report only shows the page number at the last page.
How to insert page number on each page?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Well, the easiest solution is to place the Cross-tab in the Report Footer, Of course, ONLY if the report contains this single object which I'm assuming is not the case.
If you do not wish to place the cros-tab in the Report Footer, here's what you need to do:
1) Create a formula;
whilereadingrecords;
2) Create a group on this formula. If the report already contains groups, move this formula to the top of the grouping list. It won't affect the other groups or records in any way.
3) Move the Cross-tab from the Report Header to the Group Header1 and suppress Group Footer1
4) Add the Page Number field to the Page Footer
Let me know how this goes!

Need horizontal pages of my cross tab in a sub report

How can I avoid Crystal from cutting the horizontal pages of
my cross tab in a subreport.
I tried the suggestion in
Cross Tab Question
but the length of the columns is not fix.
So I tried a division with 170 to 200, but if there are
20 values in the first column and only 4 in the next 30 columns,
my cross tab expandes to much.
I have only enough space for 10 columns.
Thanks.

I also encountered this problem and I have no idea how to create a cross tab manually. Could you please give me some idea on how to create one. The cross tab in my report has a variable number of columns(e.g. the report could produce two crosstabs, the first cross tab has 16 columns and the second one has 4 columns.)

Sort in Cross-Tab report

I have a cross-tab report that lists dates as headers and employees as rows. The data at every cell shows the qty (it is like timesheet report). The totals are shown for every row and column. The report layout looks something like this:
----------- <date> <date> <date> .... <Total>
<name> <qty> <qty> <qty> <qty>
<name> <qty> <qty> <qty> <qty>
<name> <qty> <qty> <qty> <qty>
<Total> <qty> <qty> <qty> <qty>
The report definition looks like this (I numbered the columns to make it easier to write about them):
01: <?horizontal-break-table:1?>
02: <?for-each-group@column:EMPLOYEE_TIME;./TRANSACTION_DATE?><?sort:TRANSACTION_DATE;'ascending';data-type='date'?>
03: <?TRANSACTION_DATE?>
04: <?end for-each-group?>
05: <?for-each-group:EMPLOYEE_TIME;./EMPLOYEE_NAME?><?sort:EMPLOYEE_NAME?><?variable@incontext:G1;current-group()?>
06: <?EMPLOYEE_NAME?>
07: <?for-each-group@cell://EMPLOYEE_TIME;./TRANSACTION_DATE?>
08: <?sum ($G1[(./TRANSACTION_DATE=current()/TRANSACTION_DATE)]/TRANSACTION_QTY)?>
09: <?end for-each-group?>
10: <?sum ($G1/TRANSACTION_QTY)?>
11: <?end for-each-group?>
12: <?variable@incontext:T;.//EMPLOYEE_TIME?>
13: <?for-each-group@cell://EMPLOYEE_TIME;./TRANSACTION_DATE?>
14: <?sum (current-group()/TRANSACTION_QTY)?>
15: <?end for-each-group?>
16: <?sum ($T/TRANSACTION_QTY)?>
The XML data is not sorted in any way and the report sorts it by employee and date. As you see at the line 02 I applied the sort by the transaction date. The sort works as expected, however the actual QTY are not showing at correct cells. If I remove sort it works fine but the dates are in random order. I suspect it is because I sort transaction date at header level and the QTY is not aware about it. I tried to apply the sort at line 07 but it does not help.
Does anyone has any idea how to get this report to display data correctly?

Cross tab reporting in Crystal 8.5

Post Author: KPetrey
CA Forum: General
I am trying to create a cross tab report for some data that will have varying number of columns.I am running into a problem where some situations are producing 25 or more columns. This results in the crossing over to a second page.My end-users are going to dislike this very much. I am trying to duplicate a report they had with their previous software system and it did not cross pages. All data stayed on one page. My questions are as follows:Is there a way to make the cross tab wrap so that data does not cross to second page?Is there a different way to do what I need other than cross tab?What I am trying to do is list a column for each store that will show the qty of a product that is ordered for it....the number of stores will vary depending on my end-users setup. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

Crosstab is designed to grow wide-wise if the number of columns increases. How can you avoid splitting pages if the number of columns will reach, for example, 50?
You should probably first make a decision, whether your report must be fixed-column or variable-column. If you stick to fix-column, you can design the report to accommodate theoretical maximum of columns, and imitate dynamic columns by using groups, formulas and hiding columns not in use at run time. Pain in the a** with 25+ columns but still doable. Drawback - if actual data will exceed the maximum number of columns, you are out of luck. Or you could stay with crosstab to keep support for variable number of columns, using small font and "Show Cell Margins" option to squeeze as many columns as is actually possible before falling over to the second page. I would prefer the latter if you ask me.

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 ........
and so on.....

Drill down on cross tab report

I would like to know whether it is possible to drill down through groups in a cross tab report.

go to your online help in crystal reports and in the index section, look up "report part navigation".
read through the sections on report parts and go through each section (using the right arrow at the bottom left of the help page) until you hit the section that is titled "context Report Part option scenarios".

Cross-tab report: need to SUM field and present as HH:MM:SS format

I am creating a cross-tab report and several of the selected data fields I need to summarize are time-based fields, which are stored as seconds in the database. When I create a standard report, the formula to convert the seconds to HH:MM:SS and SUM works just fine, but when I try to bring that formula field into the cross-tab report, it does a COUNT on it rather than a SUM.
How can I get it to SUM that data and present it in an HH:MM:SS format in the cross-tab report?
Here is the formula I'm using in the Standard Report to convert from seconds to HH:MM:SS and SUM the data.
totext(abs((Sum ({wagent.acwtime})) / 3600),"00") & ":" &
totext(abs(remainder((Sum ({wagent.acwtime})),3600) / 60),"00") & ":" &
totext(abs(remainder(remainder((Sum ({wagent.acwtime})),3600),60)),"00");

In the cross tab, do the sum on {wagent.acwtime}. In the cross tab on the page, right click on the field for the sum, select Format, press the X-2 next to Display String, and enter your three line formula, replacing {wagent.acwtime} with CurrentFieldValue.
HTH,
Carl

Visual studio cross tab report design problem

I have visual studio 2008 and its default crystal reports.
I have created a cross tab report that has a lot of columns and only 3 rows.
So the total number of pages that get printed are 34. (with 12 columns at the top of each page since the xtab is in report header).
My client wants me to utilize the space left at the bottom of the page by having 12 columns at the top and 12 columns at the bottom of the page.
I don't know how this can be achieved.
If the problem is not clear then let me know I'll try to explain more.
I am on a deadline here so please help me.

Hello,
I suggest you also search Forums, there are multiple posting on how to add multiple Xtabs.
This is a public area for all to use and not a case management system. If you are in a hurry I suggest you contact Support after purchasing a support incident and have a dedicated Engineer help you directly. You can get one from this link:
