Populating a Crystal Report from a virtual table

Hi,
Iu2019m using Crystal Report XI R2. I have a Crystal Report which is created using a view in Oracle using the native oracle DB connection. Iu2019m intending to write an application which should populate this report with data using a virtual table in memory. Populating the virtual table could be done by me but what I need to know is how to populate the report using this virtual table. Note the virtual table name will be the same as the one that was used to design the report. Is such a thing possible in the Crystal Java SDK. I found the flowing link http://www.eggheadcafe.com/forumarchives/NETgeneral/Jul2005/post23273440.asp and it talks about a PUSH feature. Can this be used? If so can you tell me how, maybe a small sample code would help.
Thanks you in advance,
Regards,
Chanaka

I would suggest searching for how to use resultsets with crystal reports.

Populating a Crystal Report from XML data

Hi,
I want to populate a Crystal Report using a XML data structure. Below I have explained what Iu2019m trying to do in detail,
u2022 First I will create a Crystal Report using Crystal Report XI R2 designer by connecting to a Oracle database using a native Oracle connection (not ODBC or JDBC)
u2022 Then I want to write a Java application using CR XI R2 JRC SDK to open this report
u2022 Then to run and populate this report using a XML data structure (which I have separately in a disk location. XSD too is available in disk)
u2022 Then to export this report with data to either PDF or RPT file with saved data in to disk.
The questions I have are,
1. Is this possible to do in away?
2. If so, can you please provide me with a sample code for doing this? I tried some of the other threads in the forum but some had broken links.
3. Do the xml and the xsd needs to be in a special format?
4. Is there any other configuration setting I should do?
Hope you can help me. Thank you in advance.

Chanaka

Hi Chinmay,
Thank you for the prompt answer. I have gone through this before. It explains on how to create a report using a xml database from CR designer. What I want to do is to set the data source programmatically to a xml date source from the code. I didnu2019t find anything like that. Is it the same way as setting the database connection information?
Also another question I have is how does a report with two tables work? Say I have a master u2013 detail report (order and order lines). The master part is taken from one table (order_tab) and the detail part is taken from another (order_detail_tab). Do I need to have 2 xmls or is one structured xml sufficient? How will the same work if I have the detail section in a sub-report? Will it work with one or do I need to have two?

Report from PL/SQL Table

Thanks for answer to my first question. Now I have another problem.
Is there any way to print a report based on virtual table, which is created during some Pl/SQL procedure and can't be easily decribed by Select statement

SELECT FROM PL/SQL TABLE IN ORACLE REPORTS 6I
The requirement is to populate a table and then select from that table in a report. The typical solution is to
populate a database table, but for situations where that is undesirable there is a way to select from a PL/SQL
table.
For example - for each employee we want to populate a PL/SQL table and then select from that table.
I used the following records in the emp table:
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(123,'Bob','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(321,'Sue','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(234,'Mary','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(623,'Joe','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(621,'Jim','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(634,'Jane','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(723,'Fred','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(721,'Meg','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(734,'Jill','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
=============================================================================================
Step 1: Create a package spec in the report:
PACKAGE pkg_table IS
TYPE t_rec IS RECORD (
field1 NUMBER(6),
field2 VARCHAR2(30));
TYPE t_tab IS TABLE OF t_rec INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
gv_tab t_tab;
FUNCTION populate (
p_empno NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER;
END;
Step 2: Create the package body:
PACKAGE BODY pkg_table IS
FUNCTION populate (
p_empno NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
     gv_tab.DELETE;
     -- populate table as required - for demo purposes put in anything
     FOR lv_ind IN 1..MOD(p_empno,20) LOOP
          gv_tab(lv_ind).field1 := lv_ind;
          gv_tab(lv_ind).field2 := 'row '||TO_CHAR(lv_ind)||' for emp '||TO_CHAR(p_empno);
     END LOOP;
     RETURN gv_tab.COUNT;
END populate;
END;
Step 3: Create the master query:
SELECT empno,
ename
FROM emp
Step 4: Add a formula column CF_populate to the master query that does:
function CF_populateFormula return Number is
-- for each emp fetched this formula will repopulate the PL/SQL table
-- and return the number of records in the table
begin
return pkg_table.populate(:empno);
end;
Step 5: Create the detail query:
-- we need to join this to the master and then ensure that for each
-- empno there are as many records fetched as there will be
-- records in the PL/SQL table
SELECT e1.empno,rownum
FROM emp e1, emp e2, emp e3
WHERE rownum <= :CF_populate
Step 6: Add formula columns to the detail query for each of the fields in the
PL/SQL table we want to display:
CF_Field1:
function CF_field1Formula return Number is
begin
return pkg_table.gv_tab(:rownum).field1;
end;
CF_Field2:
function CF_field2Formula return Varchar2 is
begin
return pkg_table.gv_tab(:rownum).field2;
end;
Step 7: Create the repeating frame and layout items to display the formula columns.
=============================================================================================
The same technique can be used to populate a master query. In a report level formula column
CF_Populate populate the PL/SQL table as required. In the master query we just need the rownum:
SELECT rownum
FROM emp, emp, emp
WHERE rownum <= :CF_Populate
Add the formula columns to display Field1 and Field2.

Creating a crystal report from R/3

Hi,
I am new to R/3. I am trying to create a new crystal report from R/3. I already connect crystal report with R/3 using integration kit. My problem now is i not sure which field i should i take from a which table when i look in R/3.I been provided a link, http://www.sap-img.com/sap-sd/important-tables-for-sap-sd.htm where i can check all the table for SD, PM n etc. For example, i go to t.code VA03 and search for an order, i see there is so many field. How do i know which field is from which table n row. Let said i want to pull the below information to my crystal report, how do i know which table and row i should take ? (this is just an example)
PO Number, Po Date, Material, Order quantity, pricing date, net value and overall status
Thank you

Moved to Integration Kit forum.
The people in this forum will know more about the data structure than the CR Design forum which typically doesn't know much about the SAP Data sources Structure.

Crystal Report linked to a table with filter attached

I have a Crystal Report based on 2 tables and I want it to display every incident in the incident table and to pull the truckID of the
first truck on the scene from the truck table . So the finished product should look like this…
IncidentID IncidentNum ResponseTime First Arriving Truck Disctict
1x44452 1258ab55 5:32 B8 2
*The first arriving truck is the truck in the Truck Table with the same IncidentID and the earliest ArrivalTime. There will be multiple trucks for each incident but I want it to only show the one that arrived first (ArrivalTime). So one line per incidentID.
Incident Table
IncidentID
IncidentNum
ResponseTime
District
Truck Table (Will contain many trucks for one incident with the following info
Truckkey
IncidentID (Link to Incident Table)
ArrivalTime
TruckID
I figure I probably need to build a formula with the min function or perhaps an OnCommand – I’m just not sure.
The biggest issue is the overall report has 4 filter settings. They can select a date range, a location, an incident type and a range for the response time. So I do this with the Select Expert
I can get all of that to work except I cannot figure out how to get it to pull the First Arriving Truck without duplicating the incident
line. Also, if there is a Truck with an ArrivalTime of Null I want it to ignore that Truck Table record.
Can anyone help???

Hi Debbie,,
You may try this:
1) Go to the Group Expert > Create a Group on the 'Incident ID' field from the Incident Table
2) Insert a summary on the 'Arrival Time' field and place the field on the Group Footer
3) Move all the fields from the Details section to the Group Footer
4) Go to the Group Selection Formula (Report > Selection Formulas > Group) and use this code:
{Truck.ArrivalTime} = Minimum({Truck.ArrivalTime}, {Incident ID})
5) Suppress the Details Section

How to delete all the crystal reports from SAP B1 ?

Dear Experts,
I have one problem and I need to Delete all the Crystal PLD's and Crystal Reports from SAP B1.
I can delete a PLD or Report using delete option from Report and layout manager or layout designer.
But I need to select delete option for each PLD and It makes very time.I have some 200 Reports and I need to delete fully.
Is there any possible to multi delete option in SAP B1?
I have searched many but i will not receive proper solution. Any one can explain how to do This?
Thanks ,

MSBI Developer-Chennai

Dear Karthikeyan,
Manual deletion is actually the most safe way to delete them. If you try update B1 tables directly, you are against SAP support rule.
Thanks,

Can't view Crystal Reports from BW

Hi,
I'm installing SAP Integration Kit XI 3.1 SP3 with IIS. I am able to publish reports from BW to BOE but not able view them from BW. I followed the documentation to use report/report_view.aspx to define the viewer application in Content Administration Workbench. But it is giving me a "The page cannot be found" error when I try to view Crystal Reports from BW. I tried looking for the file report/report.aspx but cannot find it. I was able to locate the file in SAP_CrystalReport_View/report_view.aspx. I repointed the system to this path but it still giving me the same error.
Anybody here encountered this before?
Thanks,
Elijah

Hi Ingo,
- has the report being saved to BW and then published to BusinessObjects enterprise ?
    Yes, the report is being published from BW to BOE successfully.
- did you import the ABAP Transports to the BW system ?
    I imported all the transports that came with the Integration Kit. I'm not sure if the ABAP transport is one of them.
- has the viewing service in transaction SICF been configured ?
    Yes, the top entry in the handler list is /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER.
I did notice that the BW system is on a different subdomain than the web application server. For example,
   BW system        - bw01.us.mydomain.com
   BOE web server -   boweb.mydomain.com
Would that affect the single sign on?

Duplicate Object Name Error When Publishing Crystal Reports from BW to BOE

Hi,
We recently upgraded our systems (all client and server) to SP2.7 in order to solve a problem with saving Crystal Reports to BW. Now we are experiencing a new error when trying to publish a Crystal Report from BW to BOE (either all in one step from Crystal Reports application or directly from within BW).
Upon trying to publish a Crystal Report from BW to BOE, we get the following error:
"An error occurred while saving and / or publishing. The return code 1 was returned from the server. Logon to Crystal Enterprise failed. Unable to commit the changes to Enterprise. Reason: Failed to commit objects to server : Duplicate object name in the same folder."
We have repeated this issue numerous time with different reports, users and logon credentials and have verified that there are NOT any duplicate object names.
Additionally, in some cases, the report ultimately publishes to BOE, but with the above error interruption along the way.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Josh
Edited by: Josh Crawford on May 10, 2010 9:46 AM

Ingo,
Apologies for the delayed response. We've spent a few days poking around with this issue, and had even opened a customer message for it (13641).
In the end, it seems that the problem was somehow associated with the "Prepare this report for translation." flag in the "Save to BW Options" dialog box of Crystal Reports. If we try to Save & Publish with the Translation flag selected, we get the duplicate entry error. If we Save & Publish without the Translation flag selected, everything is fine.
There are still some details we need to look into, but for the time being it looks like we don't have an issue anymore(assuming we ever did) as we're not concerned with Translation capabilities.
If we come across the problem again, I'll post again.
Thanks,
Josh

How do I open a Crystal Report from Microsoft Access?

I'm looking for step-by-step instructions on how to launch a Crystal Report from a Microsoft Access application (for a dummy like me).
My Crystal Report uses a connection to the Access database as the data.
I have Microsoft Access 2002 with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.5.
I have Crystal Reports 2008 CR Developer 12.
I'll need to know where to find the Visual Basic code references, and/or ActiveX Controls, if applicable.
Thanks
Janeen

I concur with Don. Just a bit of help - a sample VBA app is here;
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100006013432008E/rdc_vba.exe
But as Don mentioned, you will have to downgrade to CR XI r2 (or lower) to implement the above solution.

Open a crystal report from WAD with passing the variables values

Hi,
I need to know is there any way to link SAP WAD to crystal reports (open a crystal report from WAD)and pass the values of the variables which are entered in the Web App. (e.g. Customer id,year) should be passed to the Crystal Report.
Maybe we need to pass parameter by WAD URL but this is just my assumption and have no idea how to do this with passing variable values.
right now I know the method of how Bex queries which are used as data source for crystal reports but in my current scenario we have the structure like this that bex queries link with WAD and then WAD is linked with crystal reports.
No doubt that Crystal report is target option in RRI but there the source is Bex Query only but in current scenario we are looking WAD (web template) as a source to crystal report or crystal report called in WAD.
Please suggest something on same.
Thanks
Take care

Hello Vishal.

Cannot refresh a stored procedure within a Crystal Report from Xcelsius

Please help...Xcelsius 2008 & Live Office problem...
What I am trying to do is to refresh a stored procedure that is within a Crystal report from within my Xcelsius dashboard in Preview mode. The data returned appears on the Xcelsius dashboard. It works fine in Design mode, just not in Preview or when published as a swf.
1. I set up a Crystal Report using a Stored Procedure as the data provider.
2. The Stored Procedure has a parameter built into it.
3. When the report is refreshed within Crystal, the prompt dialog box is displayed; I fill in the desired value, and run. Everything comes back fine.
4. Crystal Report is exported to the repository.
5. In Excel, I inserted the Crystal Report using Live Office. It shows up as a Live Office object just fine.
6. I bound an Excel cell to the prompt; when you change the value in the bound cell, the Live Office object refreshes and displays the correct results.
7. In Xcelsius, I imported the Excel spreadsheet.
8. I set up a Text component that is bound to the cell containing the parameter value. Also set up a Grid to display the results, and a Connection Refresh button to call the refresh. Added a Live Office Data Connection pointing to the Web Service URL for the report.
Note: When in Designer mode, if the value of the bound cell is changed, the results in the grid change accordingly.
9. When in Preview mode (or generated swf), if the Refresh button is pressed, a "User Identification" dialog box appears asking me to log on. The values it asks for are: System, User Name, Password, and Authentication. I enter the same credentials as are within the Live Office settings in Excel, (which are working correctly), but receive an error "soapenv:Server.generalException: Database logon failed.".
Note - all the id's are synced up - Business Objects, Database, etc.
I've tried all kinds of combinations, but nothing gets me past this error. If I use any other server than the one listed under System in Live Office, the error message is "soapenv:Server.generalException: Server XXXXX not found or server may be down".
I've noticed that in Excel directly, when I open the spreadsheet and refresh the Live Office object, I am prompted to log on to the database where the stored procedure is being executed. This dialog box does not appear once the Excel sheet has been imported into Xcelsius. One of the combinations I tried in the "User Identification" dialog box was the name of the database server, that didn't work either.
I also tried creating the Live Office object directly within the Excel spreadsheet in Xcelsius, but then I was unable to bind the prompt value. Could never get the Live Office/Properties menu to appear.
Ideas? Thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
Stephanie

This post looks like a duplicate of: Live Office: Database logon failed error

Problem opening Crystal Report from SAP GUI through VPN

Hi Everyone,
