Passing parameters to Crystal Reports 2008; C#

Hi,
we are developing a .NET C# application and would like to call a Crystal Reports document (version 2008) from there passing some parameters.
So we will build the Crystal reports with the necessary parameters - however, how can I pass them from our C# application? The Crystal reports will be stored locally.
Thanks!

PASSING PARAMETERS TO CRYSTAL REPORTS THRU FORMS!

Hi! all,
Is there someone who passed parameters to crystal reports from
forms 5.0?
The problem is when I call the report executable from the form,
its giving a login prompt again which is not desirable as @ this
stage the user has already logged in once. So is there a way to
pass this as a parameter to crystal or may be any better way???
Thanx for the solution,
Hima

"Date / Date Time" type parameters in crystal reports 2008

i am using parameters in crystal report to select records. one of the parameters is "From Date" of type Date Time.
i mapped this parameter to a field "DateIn" of type smalldatetime in my sql table.
Now, when i open the report it asks for "From Date" but b y default it sets the time to current time so i have to change it to 00:00:00 manually. i want it to show 00:00:00 by default. which means i don't want time here.
For this if i select the datatype of parameter "From Date" as Date only then i am not able to map it to the "DateIn" field of the sql table.
Please help me out of this.

Great !!!
this is working.
i found another way, i changed the datatype of parameter to Date and click ok and everything was good, it doesn't require any conversion to date time.
Thank You so much. All Points You.

How to Pass parameters to Crystal report 10 based on Oracle Stored Procedur

Hi,
I use the following code to pass the parameters:
Rep.Tables[0].ConnectBuffer := Connection_Str;
Rep.Tables[0].AliasName := 'REP';
Rep.Connect.Propagate := True;
Rep.ParamFields.ByName('Lang', '').CurrentValue := IIF(BiDiMode = bdRightToLeft, '2', '1');
Rep.ParamFields.ByName('SESSION_ID', '').CurrentValue := IntToStr(Session_id);
Rep.WindowState := wsMaximized;
Rep.Show;
The 1st parameter 'Lang' which created from crystal report pass well,
but the 2nd parameter 'SESSION_ID' which created from Oracle Stored Procedures give the following Error:
Error: 202 Parameter Name could not be found u2013 ParamFields.ByName
However in MS SQL Server the above code work fine with the 2 Parameters.
Any one has solution,

Hello,
Click on the businessobjects Tab above and then select Samples and dowload the sample app you for your SDK. There are a few samples for changing/setting Parameters.
The Parameter collection has all parameters.
Thank you

Passing Parameters to Crystal Report

Dear all,
I wonder if anybody has tried out the crystal report bundled with workshop
in SP2.
I got some problems when I try to pass a parameter from a jsp in workshop to
crystal report according to part 4 of tutorial in the Crystal Reports for
BEA Weblogic workshop Developer's guide.
This message show in the web browser:
com.crystaldecisions.report.web.viewer.CrystalReportViewer
Some parameters are missing values
However, the report viewer works fine in workshop if I am not passing
parameters.
If anyone has successfully setup a report which involves parameter passing
in workshop, I would appreciate you can share the tricks how to make it
work.
Thanks!

Hi Orion,
I have the same issue like the one you sent to bea helpdesk . Please, if you got any positive response on that issue. Need help. Thanks you for you time.

SAP Crystal Report (2008) through SQL Query parameters

Hi,
I Created a report in Crystal report (2008) based on Sql Query. I created parameters in SQL query prompt only (all single valued).
Based on this I need to show the data in detail section.
For Graph, I used another SQL query, and added one subreport to the Main report header section. Since this subreport is also using the SQL query prompts for taking parameters.
Since both the reports are using same set of parameters. I mapped Main report parameters to sub-report parameters.
So Now structure is like,
In a report there is one subreport.
Main report ....SQL query generates parameter prompt..same parameters is passed to subreport.
In subreport there are sql generated prompts. and we mapped that prompts to main report parameter prompts.
Now it is running fine from crystal report, but not from CMC. It is not showing the graph.
Made Two Experiment:
1. To check subreport is running or not , Mannualy put my name in sub report--working fine.(CMC)
2. To check the parameters are correctly mapped--printed the value in subreport--Showing all the parameters value from CMC
but it is not running the SQL query of that sub report.
Any suggestion ?? Or is there anyoption to check?? Or a CMC setting.
Please suggest and respond..
Thank you in advance.!!

Hi Rajeev,
This is Crystal reports development community, you said the report is working fine in Crystal. it is problem in CMC. So the issue is at BI Server.
So i think you need to create the thread in the below community.

Bapi Function call from Crystal reports 2008. import parameters syntax.

Dear,
I have an issue with calling a function directly from Crystal reports (2008) in the R3 system.
(if this belongs in another thread , please add the link if moved !)
I try to get data through function "BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS".
Till now all possible input parameters have no data-result.
I already read other threads stating that 'for example' the Language key needs to be provided in a single character. 'E' in stead of 'EN'.
I also already created a Z-wrap-function that fills out all input parameters 'hardcoded'. This works.
clearly there are som syntax changes in passing the values to R3 when called from Crystal Reports.
Can someone state which syntax has to be followed for numeric fields, for datefields etc. (so when i make these dynamical, I know which syntax should be the outcome of the formula)
in my function that doesn't work I use these selections:
(this function is called in a standard report only calling this function)
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_ISO} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_INT} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05)
I already tried other languages or the 'EN' as input.
(I would like to know how the date is passed exaclty to R3.)
The function is of course RFC enabled.
when I call the my Z-function with predefined inputparameters in R3 it does give the wanted result.
FUNCTION ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.
""Local Interface:
*" TABLES
*"      OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION STRUCTURE BAPI_OBJECT_VALUES

ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_KEY = '000000000000000085'.
ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_TYPE = 'MARA'.
Append ZCLASS_OBJECTS.

    CLASS_OBJECTS                = ZCLASS_OBJECTS
OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[] = ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[].
ENDFUNCTION.
please advise.
once again if this should be moved to another forum , add the link please!

Dear,
I just debugged my Z-function, after adding all input parameters as in the standard BAPI function.
All parameters seems to be passed correctly except from the table parameters from
CLASS_OBJECTS
So all I_parameters are passed :
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_INT} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_ISO} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05) and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CHARACTS_OF_CLASS_ONLY.BAPIFLAG} = ""
but the table parameters aren't coming through:
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
these are 'blanco' in the function.
also after the function is executed and all data is retrieved, when passing the data back to Crystal reports, once again, the table result isn't passed to Crystal Reports.
please advise

Crystal Reports 2008 - passing a parameter in the Command Object

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008. I have 4 Command Objects where I have the following queries.
select emrace, count(empl_id) cntFCiv from emmain where emtype='CIV' and emsex ='F' and emdateterm is null group by emrace
select emrace, count(empl_id) cntFSw from emmain where emtype='SWOR' and emsex ='F' and emdateterm is null group by emrace
select emrace, count(empl_id) cntMCiv from emmain where emtype='CIV' and emsex = 'M' and emdateterm is null group by emrace
select emrace,count(empl_id) cntMSw from emmain where emtype='SWOR' and emsex = 'M' and emdateterm is null group by emrace
I want to pass a parameter to all these command objects. I want the user to select a parameter from a list of values. So, I created a parameter object, Bureau. (I get the values for the parameter with this command object: select code_agcy, descriptn from systab1 where code_key = 'UNIT'). I want the user to be able to get the counts for each bureau.
How do I pass the parameter that the user picked to those command objects. I tried doing this:
select emrace, count(empl_id) cntFCiv from emmain where emtype='CIV' and emsex ='F' and emdateterm is null
and emunit = '{?Bureau}' group by emrace
But it did not work. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Catch BO Session info in Crystal Report 2008 to pass to Xcelsius 2008

Hi All.
I have an Xcelsius 2008 model with data provided by a Live Office connection.
I've tried to embed this model, as swf file, in a report Crystal 2008.
I've published this report within BOE Enterprise, but trying to visualize it, the Live Office connection prompts for BO authentication.
Is there any way in Crystal Report 2008 to catch current BO session info to pass it to the Live Office connection?
I would really appreciate any suggestion.
Thanks a million.
PS: I'm sorry if this is not the right forum. This thread is available also in Crystal Reports Design section.

No, we haven't found a solution that we would like to have.
We are putting in place a workaround to update the Xcelsius SWF file outside of Crystal. We will have the Crystal Report using the BOBJ scheduler to export to Excel on a file share the cross tab table used in Xcelsius and then have Xcelsius updated using the BOBJ scheduler. Instead of having the Xcelsuis embedded in Crystal, the SWF file will be posted to the same SharePoint site that we will be posting the PDF file from Crystal. Not ideal, but it should work.

Crystal Reports 2008 - dynamic parameters not returing all data

I am having the same issue with Crystal Reports 2008. Only returning 135 customers in a dynamic paramaters when the list should be 3288.
When I re-create the parameter by using a command instead of relying on Crystal to return the data from the db table Crystal returns only 5"pages" of customers to select from.
I have tried to run the report with this reduced selection & it then crashes.
Any ideas??

This article may help you to increase the number of values in the parameter
KBase Article ID:c2017238
Article refers to: Crystal Reports XI BusinessObjects Enterprise XI
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
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.
2.     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.
3.      After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.
Crystal Reports XI Release 2
1.     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.
2.     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.
3.     After making changes to the registry, restart the affected service or application as required.

2008 method will get database logon failed even set database location and verify database again
then i use 8.5 method and try again for 2008 report. it said field name is unknown for one of formula

Crystal Report 2008 / JavaScript hyperlink formula/ Issue

Hi,
We've developed the Crystal Report using the Crystal Reports 2008 software & integrated it in asp.net web page and also deployed in IIS web server. We have a requirement like opening the sub report in a new window. We have integrated the sub report also in a asp.net web page & passing the parameters in URL & acheived it..
For the above, we have used JavaScript code like "javascript:window.open('SubReport.aspx','...','..' ...)" in the hyperlink formula field of main report. It works fine while running using VS 2005 in the development box.
But in production serer (Windows 2003 server), the JS URL in the formula field is not working properly. Instead , it is rendered as a drill down JS url. Like javascript:bobj.event.publish('drilldown',........)
Can you please help us to resolve this issue?
(OR) Do we have any other approach to open the web page in new window from CR (same like a popup window)
Thanks
Jeyakumar

I understand that the point of this is to allow the URL link to open the Subreport.aspx page in a new window. This can be problematic due to cross-site scripting restrictions. A few years ago we found that it was possible for report writers to add JavaScript to reports. This isn't a problem if the report writers are honest and nice. However, it is possible for JavaScript to be malicious so that ability to include JavaScript was turned off when the app uses our webform viewers. There may be a way to turn it off in the registry though. This is documented for CR XI r2 [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes.do].
I am not sure if this reg key works for the .NET viewer, though the note specifies DHTML and .NET InfoView, so CR should work also. As you are using CR 2008, I suspect the key would be:
HKLMSoftwareBusiness ObjectsSuite 12.0Crystal Reports
You will most likely have to add the Export folder, then add the HTML folder, then add the EncodeHTMLForSingleLineFieldObjects and set it to "no".
Please note that this is a hack / workaround found for CR XI r2. The functionality you are looking to exploit was removed for a reason. As such if the above does not work for CR 2008, it will not be considered to be a "bug" and we will not be able to send this to R&D for a resolution.

Fields in Stored Procedure does not appear in Crystal reports 2008.

hi,
I am now using crystal reports 2008 evaluation copy for 30 days. I am trying to create a stored procedure with parameter, here is my sample Stored Procedure code;
DELIMITER $$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `puerto`.`SP_FindEmployees`$$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` PROCEDURE `SP_FindEmployees`(SIDNo VARCHAR(10))
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM employees WHERE IDNo=SIDNo;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
when i try to call the procedure in sqlyog here is my sample code;
CALL sp_findemployees('0000000001')
it is successfull, but when i try to connect it with crystal reports 2008 I got no fields in my stored procedure andi got this error message ;
"Database Connector: 'HY00:[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver][mysqld-5.1.33-community]incorect number of arguments for procedure puerto.sp_findemployees; expected 1, got 0 [Database vendor code: 1318]"
CR2008 was not asking a parameter values.
But when I try using stored procedure that i've made in MSSQL, CR2008 asking parameters and succefully created the reports needed.
My Objective is to make a stored procedure in MySQL by using select statement and filter it with parameter(s) that I will pass and CR2008 will use this stored procedure.
i also try the view with this code below and it was successfull in CR2008.
DELIMITER $$
DROP VIEW IF EXISTS `puerto`.`ep_employees`$$
CREATE ALGORITHM=UNDEFINED DEFINER=`root`@`localhost` SQL SECURITY DEFINER VIEW `ep_employees` AS (SELECT `employees`.`IDNo` AS `IDNo`,`employees`.`FullName` AS `FullName` FROM `employees`)$$
DELIMITER ;

hi,

Integrate Crystal Reports 2008 in Lotus Notes 8.x

We allready use Crystal Reports 2008 with Lotus Notes 8.x trough NotesSQL 8.5. This works fine.
Now we want integrate Crystal Reports 2008 directly in Lotus Notes 8.x. so that the user can start reports directly from his Lotus Notes Application. Of course, data has to be retrieved in realtime (not with data stored in the report) and he should be able to pass parameters from a lotus notes form.
All informations we found are quit old (Crystal Reports 8.5 and Lotus Notes R5). Does anyone has an idea how to start and where to find new documentations? Is there maybe even a sample application availabl?
Any help is welcome!

Hello Alain, I have the same troubles. I have some databases with Crystal Reports 9. But no solution for Crystal Report 2008.

Visual Studio 2008 using Crystal Reports 2008

I'm trying to pass parameters to a Crystal Reports 2008 rpt file but keep getting a runtime message saying "Missing Parameter Values".
Has anyone experienced this problem?
Does anyone have a snippet of code where values are being passed from C#.Net to a crystal 2008 report.
Thanks in advance....

Hi Steven,
You can select version and download code samples from [here|https://boc.sdn.sap.com/codesamples]
Here is code for parameters :
        string Reportpath = Server.MapPath("CrystalReport.rpt");
        ParameterFields boParameterFeilds = new ParameterFields();
        ParameterField boParameterFeild = new ParameterField();
        ParameterValues boParametervalues = new ParameterValues() ;
        ParameterDiscreteValue boParameterDiscreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
        ParameterRangeValue boParameterRangeValue = new ParameterRangeValue();
         CrystalReportViewer CR;
         CR = new CrystalReportViewer();
         CR.ReportSource = CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource;
         boParameterFeilds = CrystalReportViewer1.ParameterFieldInfo;
         boParameterFeild = boParameterFeilds["Country"];
         boParametervalues = boParameterFeild.CurrentValues;
         boParameterDiscreteValue = new ParameterDiscreteValue();
         boParameterDiscreteValue.Value = "Canada";
         boParametervalues.Add(boParameterDiscreteValue);
        boParameterDiscreteValue.Value = "USA";
        boParametervalues.Add(boParameterDiscreteValue);
        boParameterFeild = boParameterFeilds["sales"];
        boParametervalues = boParameterFeild.CurrentValues;
        boParameterRangeValue.EndValue = "10000";
        boParameterRangeValue.StartValue = "25000";
        boParametervalues.Add(boParameterRangeValue);
        CrystalReportViewer1.ParameterFieldInfo = boParameterFeilds;
Hope this helps !!
