Print Multiple Parameter Value in Crystal Report 2008

Hello and Hi
i want to select multiple warehouse in a pramater , i select and report working but parameter print only first parameter value on report.how can print all selected values on report

Hi
I am assuming you select warehouses WH1,WH2,WH3,.......
You have to create a formula in Crystal
It should look like this
Join({?YourParamaterName},",")
Place the formula on your report.
The last Part of the formula is the "notation break" between every parameter returned. In this case a > , <
Return would be WH1,WH2,WH3,.......
Join({?YourParamaterName},"#") would return WH1#WH2#WH3#.......
Hope you get the idea
If this solution helps, please rate me.

Passing formula values to Crystal Reports from c#

in an old vb 6 application we used to be able to call a function called PESetFomula in the Crystal Reports viewer and pass it the name of the parameter and the value.
How do we do that now using Crystal Reports for VS 2013. I don't mean to set the criteria just to pass over parameters and values.

Hi Bill,
Moving the thread to Crystal reports for Visual Studio Space.
Using the .net SDK you could use the ReportDocument class to pass the parameter values to the report.
See the sample applications here:

Passing Value from Crystal Report (special function) to Business View parameter

Friends,
Í have a scenario where i need to pass value from Crystal Report to a Business view's parameter.
Eg : CurrentCEUsername (func in crystal report)-- gives login user which i should pass to parameter in a Business view (used in the same report).
Will be able to explain more if required.
Thanks in Advance,
Bharath

I guess you got the picture wrong. User_id is not a report_level parameter .
In Data Foundation, below query is used..
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id={?User_id}
where in {?User_id} is the BV parameter...
The Filter was a solution. But it takes long time to Query all the data from DB and then filter at BV level.
How do i pass the CurrentCEUsername to {?User_id}
Value should ve CurrentCEusername always. so that query will be
select Acc_Number, Account_Group,User_id from Accounts where user_id=CurrentCEusername
It will restrict the data pulled from DB to BV .. right?

How to pass parameter values to a report befor schedule it?

I tried to use Business Objects web service to schedule a report. But I failed to pass in any parameter values. The report was able to run successfully. But check all history from Infoview, all parameter are with NULL value. Does anybody encounter the same problem and has good resolution for this? Many thanks.
Here's my code:
// Logon Crystal Report Server
LogonCrystalServer();
// Find Report
GetOptions oGetOptions = new GetOptions();
oGetOptions.IncludeSecurity = false;
ResponseHolder rh = _bipService.Get("cuid://<" + reportCuid + ">@SI_SCHEDULEINFO, SI_PROCESSINFO", oGetOptions);
InfoObjects oInfoObjects = rh.InfoObjects;
if (oInfoObjects == null || oInfoObjects.InfoObject == null) return;
// Set Scheduling Info
CrystalReport oReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.InfoObject[0];
oReport.Name = oInfoObjects.InfoObject[0].Name;
SchedulingInfo oSchedulingInfo = oReport.SchedulingInfo;
oSchedulingInfo.RightNow = true;
oSchedulingInfo.ScheduleType = (ScheduleTypeEnum.ONCE);
oReport.SchedulingInfo = oSchedulingInfo;
// Set Format Info.
ReportProcessingInfo procInfo = oReport.PluginProcessingInterface;
CrystalReportFormatOptions repFormat = new CrystalReportFormatOptions();
repFormat.Format = ReportFormatEnum.EXCEL;
repFormat.FormatSpecified = true;
repFormat.UseExportOptionsInReport = true;
repFormat.UseExportOptionsInReportSpecified = true;
procInfo.ReportFormatOptions = repFormat;
// Get Report Parameters and Set their values
// I don't know if the step has any problem. I copied from wssdk sample.
ReportParameter[] repParams = procInfo.ReportParameters;
for (int i = 0; i < repParams.Length; i++)
    CurrentValues oCurrentValues = new CurrentValues();
    BusinessObjects.DSWS.BIPlatform.Desktop.PromptValue[] oPromptValue = new BusinessObjects.DSWS.BIPlatform.Desktop.PromptValue[1];
    oPromptValue[0] = new BusinessObjects.DSWS.BIPlatform.Desktop.PromptValue();
    oPromptValue[0].Data = "Test";
    oCurrentValues.CurrentValue = oPromptValue;
    repParams<i>.CurrentValues = oCurrentValues;
procInfo.ReportParameters = repParams;
oReport.PluginProcessingInterface = procInfo;
// Schedule run the report
InfoObjects infoObjects = _bipService.Schedule(oInfoObjects);
//Get new instance id
string instanceCuid = infoObjects.InfoObject[0].NewJobID;

Can you clarify your scenario? Which is the case you're talking about?
1) You want to pass a parameter from OmniPortlet to a PL/SQL procedure.
2) You want to pass a parameter from a PL/SQL procedure to OmniPortlet.
In both cases the most obvious way of doing it is through request (URL) parameters.
Render a link in your portlet (either in OmniPortlet or using PL/SQL) that invokes a portal page, containing the other portlet.
Both OmniPortlet and PL/SQL allow you to wire and access page parameters.
Take a look at the Using Parameter and Events section of the Portal User's Guide and the Parameters and Events section of the Portal Developer's Guide.
Hope this helps,

Range Value in Crystal Report

Hello Experts,
I want to include a range value in crystal report. Currently the report is used for printing AR invoice with one invoice at time, wherein user inputs invoice number which he wants to print. I want to include invoice number range in the report, but that option is disabled in the parameter field. In present report Invoice number is taken as static value and then connected to db to get the data of that AR invoice number, advise how to
- Activate "Allow Range Value option"
- How to set up the multiple invoice printing
Setup details : SBO 2007B, CR 2008, SQL 2005

Printing parameter values in xml report, and displaying it in header of the

Hi All,
Can anybody give me an idea to print the parameter values in the xml report.
My requirement is like, I have 10 parameters in report builder, I have generated the xml file and created the .rtf template and finally registerted in oracle apps. But now, the requirement is to print the parameter values in the report output.I don't see any xml tags in the xml output.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I think all the XML attributes can contain lexicals. If you bring up the property palette against the report object you can just set the following:
XML Tag Attributes: myParameter="&<P_1>"
where P_1 is your user parameter.

One parameter for multiple Crystal reports in Publication

Does anyone know if it is possible to enter one identical parameter for multiple Crystal reports in publication when scheduling? BOE 3.1 SP3 Windows, Java.
To elaborate I am creating publication with multiple reports, each report has one parameter and this parameter is identical in every report in publication. So instead of entering this parameter many times I would like to enter once.
If yes point me in the right direction to get the how to or post the steps.

Daniel,
Thank you so much for your answer. It was very helpful. In the end, it didn't work but it helped me figure out what was happening. I use a different form for the reports and I had it coded in the form which report to use. I created a second form for the second crystal and then I used an if statement to choose the form and it worked like a charm.
Thanks so much again!

Problems with parameter button in Crystal Report Server 2008

Dear all,
I have problems with parameter button in Crystal Report Server 2008.
when I created some parameters and groups in Crystal Report 2008, they showed both parameters in 'Parameter button' and group in 'Group button' on the left, so I can choose or type without clicking 'Refresh button' But when I added it to Crystal Report Server 2008 and I click parameter button , it doesn't show any parameter. Only click refresh button to choose them. On the other hand, for 'Group Tree' is ok. When go to Default Setting-> Parameter, all parameters are in 'Unused parameter' First time I think I had problems with my installation, but when I reinstalled it again, it was like before.
Could any one help me with this?
I appreciate looking forward to your reply
Ketya

Any way to find parameter value for a report?

CS2008 SP3 - version 12.3.0.601
Is there any way parameter value of a report can be found? The following code doesn't return parameter value but returns name.
Fields existingReportParameters = null;
                        IDataDefinition dataDefinition = reportDocument.getDataDefinition();
                        existingReportParameters = dataDefinition.getParameterFields();
                        if (existingReportParameters != null) {
                              for (int i = 0; i < existingReportParameters.size(); i++) {
                                    IField field = existingReportParameters.getField(i);
                                    if (field instanceof ParameterField) {
                                          ParameterField pa = (ParameterField)field;
                                          String paramName = pa.getName();
                                          //Values values = pa.getValues();
                                          //Object value = values.get(0);
                                          //System.out.println("*** repName Parameter - " + paramName + ":" + values);
                                          System.out.println("*** repName Parameter - " + paramName);
Need to find a solution soon. Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Try searching, I have post code snippets on how to get values. I don't know for sure though if that code will work in CR 2008.

Passing parameter values to another report using URL actions (reportserver)

Hi guys,
I have two reports that I link with eachother. For report A - B everything works perfect. When I try to do the same for report B - A it works, but the parameter value is not filled in.
=Iif(
Parameters!PAR_LinksEnabled.Value,
Globals!ReportServerUrl & "?" & Replace(Globals!ReportServerUrl, "_vti_bin/ReportServer", "")
& "Reporting/POS Reporting/Reports/POS Report.rdl&POS_ID=" & Parameters!CONNECTION_ID.Value & "&POS_LANG=" & Parameters!POS_LANG.Value & "&PAR_Date=%5BDate invoice%5D.%5BBonus Calendar - Week%5D.%5BBonus
week of year%5D.%26%5B" & Left(Parameters!YEAR_WEEK.Label, 4) + "%5D%26%5B" & CInt(Right(Parameters!YEAR_WEEK.Label, 2)) & "%5D",
Nothing
Even tho I specify the parameter he has to pass through, the report opens with parameter period : <select a value>. Anyone has an idea why such behaviour happens?
Thanks!

Hi Yvanlathem,
Per my understanding that you want to use the expression above to conditional add the hyperlink to pass the value to the parameter of anpother rreport via the URL in the SharePoint integrated mode report server, right?
I have check the expression you have provided and the issue can be caused by the wrong way you have write the expression to pass the parameter, please check detais information below to make sure you have pass parameter in the URL correctly:
Please modify the expression to below structure :
=Iif( Parameters!PAR_LinksEnabled.Value="Enabled", "URL",Nothing)
I saw you have use expression like "&POS_ID=" & Parameters!CONNECTION_ID.Value & "" which is incorrect, we need to set a report parameter within a URL, use the following syntax:
parameter=value(not Value=Parameter)
If you are using the following syntax like "Parameter1=Parameter2", both parameters and from different report, if you have add the "Go to URL" action from report2 to Report1, please make sure Parameter1 is from the Report1
and Parameter2 is from Report2, change the order will not work
More detail information:
Pass a Report Parameter Within a URL
So, In your scenario, please make sure the value is from one report's field (POS_ID) and the the parameter(CONNECTION_ID) is from another report (e.g:"&CONNECTION_ID=" &Fields!POS_ID.Value &"")
