Parameter list of values doesn't open in PLUS

Hi,
For some reason, if I run a report directly from PLUS the list of values from all the parameters in one specific report does not open, but it does open both in DESKTOP and through the application (which is PLUS).
The original report had one folder and had no problem. I saved the report in DESKTOP under a new name and added another sheet based on the same folders. Since the users use PLUS, I checked the new report in PLUS and I noticed that the list of values don't open. On the other hand, they do open if I run the report through the application rather than going directly into PLUS with the URL.
It would not really be an issue since the users will not have a problem, but I need to save this report under a new name with different titles etc. and I am wondering if there is some problem which I will now be dupliating.
Thanks.
Leah

Hi Tamir,
The responsibility is the same, but the LOV is in a different BA. Would that cause the problem?
But then again, why is the original report not a problem?

What is the maximum number of records in a dynamic parameter list of values?

In Crystal Reports Developer, I am attempting to add a dynamic parameter from a view. The view has 6773 total records. The field used for the parameter has 1819 distinct values, none of which are null.
I have the parameter set to allow multiple values, and I have added
field is equal to parameter
in the select expert.
However, when I refresh the report and tell it to prompt for new parameters, the list of values does not contain all the values, so about half of the records are dropped.
Is there a way I can guarantee that all 1819 (or an unlimited number) records show up in the List of Values?

How to populate list of values on screen load

Hi all,
I have a list of values based on another field (ANOTHER_FIELD).
e.g.
select value d, value r
from table_name
where id = :ANOTHER_FIELD;
ANOTHER_FIELD has default value.
But when the screen is opened the list of values doesn't get the default value and the list of values is empty.
Just when submmiting the form, the list of values is populated.
Please tell me how can I populate the list of values on screen load.
Thanks!

Hi,
So, you have created a computation for ANOTHER_FIELD but the related list still does not get any values? And, the default value for ANOTHER_FIELD is a valid value that can be used to populate the related list?
Have you set anything for the "Display Null" settings for the related list? Or, is the default value a value will always be in the list?

List of values not properly working in the selection screen.

Dear Mates,
In BEx query all the selection parameters are working and showing all the list of values. Created the same report in crystal from BEx query, for one particular selection it is not showing the list of values or drop down. Just showing "DISCRETE VALUES"
Please throw some light on this.
Good day,

Hi Arun,
I think you have more than one dynamic parameter created in your report. There is a limitation on dynamic parameter list of values. You will have to edit the registery to get all values in dynamic parameters list.
Find below is a knowledgebase article ;
Symptom
For performance reasons, in Crystal Reports XI Release 1 and Release 2 the maximum number of values that are returned for a list of values is set to 1000. If you have a cascading List of Values (for example Country > Region > City), the lowest level (in this case City) will only display a maximum of 1000 values. This means that the higher-level prompts may display far fewer values than you expect. The list of values provides the data for the dynamic parameter list.
How can you modify the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list?
Resolution
To increase the maximum number of values available in a dynamic parameter list, you must add a registry key.
CAUTION
The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall the Microsoft Windows operating system. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk. For information on how to edit the registry key, view the 'Changing Keys and Values' online Help topic in the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
It is strongly recommended that you make a backup copy of the registry files (System.dat and User.dat on Win9x computers) before you edit the registry.
Crystal Reports XI Release 1
Create a registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV.
NOTE
Alternatively, you can create the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV and that key will override the settings of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV key.
Add a string value "MaxRowsetRecords" and set the value to the maximum number of values that you desire for your report. For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a cascading parameter. NOTE: The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
NOTE
The higher the number of values is, the longer it will take the Enter Values dialog box to populate with values.
After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.
Crystal Reports XI Release 2
Create a registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV.
NOTE
Alternatively, you can create the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV and that key will override the settings of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Business Objects\Suite 11.5\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV key.
Add a string value "MaxRowsetRecords" and set the value to the maximum number of values that you desire for your report. For example, a value of 2000 will return up to 2000 values in the lowest level of a cascading parameter.
NOTE
The value 0 (Unlimited) will not work with BusinessObjects Enterprise XI or Crystal Reports Server XI, you must specify another value.
After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.

Report Viewer Dynamic Parameter List not showing a complete list of values

Hi, I have installed the crystal report runtime 13.0.1.220 for framework 4.0 in a 64-bit windows 7 professional server.
I have an aplication that opens crystal reports using the crystal report viewer control for visual studio 2010, also version 13.0.1.220.
ISSUE: The report opens fine, but it does not shows all the available values in the dynamic parameter list.
I have tried setting the MaxRowsetRecords registry key to diferent values but it does not work.
I do not have any crystal report stand alone version installed in my server.
Please help me?

Hi Ludek,
yes i followed the instructions of the KBase you are mentioning, but it isn't working for me.
I modified the following keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework4.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework4.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV
1) I had to create the LOV key under the DatabaseOptions in both keys.
2) Inside the LOV keys I created the new string value MaxRowsetRecords and set the value to different values. (Ex: 5000, 10000 and 1000000)
3) I restarted my server. Still not working.
4) Then after that i modified the following registry keys: (leaving the first 2 keys modified)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework4.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions\LOV
and
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework4.0\Crystal Reports Designer Component\DatabaseOptions\LOV
5) Also had to create the LOV key under the DatabaseOptions in both keys.
6) Inside the LOV keys I created the new string value MaxRowsetRecords and set the value to different values. (Ex: 5000, 10000 and 1000000)
7) Restarted my server. still not working
8) Then after that i modified the following registry key: (leaving the first 4 keys modified)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework4.0\Crystal Reports Designer Component\ReportView
Inside this key I created the DWORD PromptingLOVBatchSize and gave it a decimal value of 1000000
9) Restarted the server. Still not working. For crying out LOUD!!

Parameter default value doesn't work in Discoverer Desktop 4i

Hello,
I have a parameter called 'Organization' in discoverer report.
I want to set its default value to one organization from the list of values. I edited the parameter
and selected that value from the list in the Default value field. But,when I run
the report, it shows the recently used value for that parameter,
instead of showing the default value.
I have the same problem with all parametrs in workbooks in Discoverer.
I am using Discoverer Desktop 4i (4.1.41.05.00).
Is there anything i can do to make Discoverer show me the default value for the parameter every time i run the workbook?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Rod!
Unfortunately it seams that seting that p[reference doesn't work for my version of Discoverer.
That option is introduced with version 4.1.43 and we are using version 4.1.41.05.
I suppose i can't solve that problem on another way in this version of Discoverer Desktop..?
Best regards!

Parameter List displaying all the values on Parameter form

Dear All...If I uncheck the "Restrict List to predetermined values" option, then report parameter form displays all the values on web parameter form instead of displaying those values in the List Item. Is it the Default behaviour of Oracle Reports 10g or Can I control it anyway because if I've 1000 entries in a list, then displaying all those values openly on the form is an ugly thing and it increases the size of parameter form very much.

How to get the list of values for a dynamic parameter using Web Services SDK?

I am struggling to get the list of values for a dynamic parameter of a report.I am using Java Web Services SDK ... I tried to use PromptInfo.getLOV().getValues() method but it does not work.First of all ... is this possible (to get the list of values for a dynamic param) using Web Services?Second of all, if this is possible, how should I do it ... it seems it works fine when running the report from CMC. It asks for DB logon info and after that it provides a list of values.Thx 

Your assumption is correct. We are trying to get the LOVs from the Crystal Report. I was not aware that this is not supported by Web Services SDK.We used Web Services SDK to integrated the Crystal Reports in our web application. We implemented some basic actions for reports: schedule, view instances, run ad-hoc reports.We encountered this problem when trying to run/schedule reports with dynamic parameters (a list of values from DB). We were unable to get the LOVs.Please let me know if you can think of an alternative to look at.Thanks a lot,Catalin

No data in Report parameter inspite of Scheduling of List of Values

Hi,
In the Business View Manager, I have created a Business View and LOV(List of Values) based on that view.
The LOV consists of a cascaded prompt group that is used in certain Crystal Reports as under:
> Loan Name
>> Loan Subtype
>>> Channel Name
All the three fields are coming from separate tables. Except table pertaining to Loan Subtype, all other tables and their fields have data. I am of the opinion that if I 'Schedule LOV' it should not prevent populating data into whatever fields from respective tables that contain data.
I performed 'Schedule LOV' to get data up to Channel Name, and this did not help in bringing data in Loan Name within the parameter screen of Crystal Reports.
Thereafter I performed 'Schedule LOV' to get data up to Loan Name, and even this did not help in bringing data in Loan Name within the parameter screen of Crystal Reports.
Is it mandatory to have data in all fields used in LOV, for the data to appear in the highest level of parameter in cascaded prompt group. Your views are welcome.
Regards,
Neonevin

Hi,
I have created a new LOV upon the same Business View using the same fields in the format of highest level to lowest level as given below:
> Loan Name
>> Loan Subtype
>>> Channel Name
Then I perform the 'Schedule LOV' again but it does not help as the Report parameters still do not show any values for selection of values in prompt.
I am getting the following error:
Item SI_METADATA_ALL_DESCENDANTS was not found in the collection. (CrystalEnterprise115.FW_Properties.1)
Is this an indication of some inconsistency. What exactly it could be ? How do I derive values in Report prompt through particular LOV ?

Hello,

If you run the report from a Web browser and the list of values is unrestricted, the HTML Parameter Form will display a text field instead of a combo box, and a list of static values that you can copy and paste into the text field.

How to send a list item value to URL to open data related to item value

Hi,
Iam using Apex4.0 and iam facing some problem. Iam unable to send selected list item value to the url specified in the HTMl region.
Here i want to open the data related to list item value in other page.
List item - :Familyp
i want to pass this selected value to the url and when ever user selected the list item and clicks on the url, then it should display the item value related data in new page.
I tried with &FamilyP in url but it's not working. Any one help me plz.
Regards
Vamsi.Tata

Is it a normal Select list or Multi Select list?
If you have select list that allows you to select multiple options then you cannot pass it through URL. Multi-select /Shuttle keep colon separated list in the item, and this confuses Apex because the Apex URL uses colons for a different purpose. No escaping or URL encoding will help.
If it is normal select list that allows selection of only one option then you can pass through the url. Unless of course the data has a colon in it.
For multi-select, and when the value contains colon, the only way is to save the value in session state, same page item or any other place like Application Item, and then reference it at the other end. Never pass through the URL.

CR 2008, all values in parameter list not showing up

The parameter is not optional, the parameter value exists in the view on SQL server, but at report run-time, only get 5 pages of possible values to select from and user needs to go back farther to get the required report.
I can get the report to run in full CR version by passing the value into the select expert, but users only get prompt window from the runtime version of CR.
How can I get ALL the values of the field in the view to show up in parameter list?
Thanks for any pointers.

CR 2008, missing parameter values in parameter list

somehow this thread got posted in the .NET SDK section, so re-posting here...
When my users run the report, the list of values in the paramter list does not include all the possible values that exist in the view on SQL server.
How can I get ALL the values of the field in the view to show up in parameter list? What is controlling how many/few values show up? I have not limited in any way what should be returned from the view (not a cascading set of parameters), and the view is not set up to limit what values are available either.
Thanks for any pointers.
Robert

From a mis-post on the .NET forum, a solution was suggested that works....

ITunes doesn't open, lost song list

My iTunes doesn't open for some reason, so I downloaded a new iTunes which works, but doesn't have anything showing on it. My music is on an external HD. How do I get the songs to appear on the iTunes again?
many thanks for anyone that knows!

gta129,
Do you have iTunesHelper set to start up when you login? To check if it's in the list of login items:
1. Open System Preferences.
2. Click the Accounts pane.
3. Select your user.
4. Click the Login Items tab.
5. See if iTunes Helper is listed here.
Hope this helps,
Jennifer B.
