CR v11.0.0.2422, CR Server IX SP3
What is required for the user to operate programmable functions in a Crystal formatted report? Here is an example of what I want to do but not sure how to go about it. What do I need to research?
User views report through .net Infoview or java InfoviewEach row in report contains a check box, button or something to flag a record.If a flag is toggled, information from the row flagged is updated to a database. (ie...vbscript?)
Thanks

Can any one help me on this.
Thanks in advance.

can you try assign concatenated value to some xml element first, like
assign : <value>{fn:concat(a,b)}</value> to e.g. value
and then report key ./text() in variable $value

Go to Function in Report

Hello Friends,
Here i am having two BW reports, report 1 and report 2.
I am accessing report 2 with GO TO functionality in report 1.
In report 1, we have various fields such as characteristics, attributes, navigational attributes and Key figures.
<b>My question is:</b>
So on which field (Right click to use go to function) of the report 1 is suggested to use GO TO function. what is the reason please.
Hope i am clear.
Thanks in advance..
Tony

Hi Maithili,
Yes, you r right we can use any field to use GO TO function.
<b>But the main question is</b>
The performance (Report 2 opening time) depends up on the field on which GO TO function is used. It varies from field to field.
I have observed this in my reports.
so, which field is best suggestable to use GO TO function and why??
Thanks
Tony

PCA Functional Area Report Problem With Co-Product Settlements

I have built a profit center functional area report for use in a manufacturing client. The reason is because the factory cost centers flow to the product cost (via costing sheets) and the administrative cost centers are expensed monthly. However, SAP seems to have no other approach to handle the issue where common expense elements must be reported in these two separate sections. Anyway, here is my problem:
After creating the functional areas and matching them to each cost center appropriately and then applying a different functional area to orders, I see that settlement of co-products causes my report to zero out the functional area that should match the overhead cost centers. These obviously should not be impacted by settlement and I see that they are not impacted in the transactional data. However, the functional area report shows a different story. I believe it somehow has to do with the unusual way that co-product split up and settle versus other types of orders. I may need some sort of subtitution rule, but like I said, the raw transactional data looks correct and the report should bring in these values.
I used ledger 8A if that helps. I am sure I missed some small thing somewhere.
David

It looks to me like the New G/L may have taken care of some of my issue. The FI reconciliation G/L account (690000 usually) includes the secondary cost center postings as well as the secondary order postings. The cost center side of the secondary transaction reflects the functional area for cost centers (Factory Exp or Admin Exp in my case), whereas the order side of the secondary posting shows the functional area associated with order consumption (Net Consumption in our case).
This appears to mean that the standard report for Functional Areas from FI should work to break up the income statement for manufacturing purposes. This report is S_PLO_86000029. That report looks to me like it will replace my need for a PCA based Functional Area Report.

Partner function wise reports

hi sap gurus,
i would like to partner function wise reports.For ex i am creating Vendor with three type of partner function .
VN       Vendor                 Partner schema: purchasing organization level
Z1       Organizer              Partner schema at vendor sub-range level
Z3         owner                  Partner schema: plant level.
i would like to all transaction reports through partner function wise

Create a Query using tables
LFA1--> Main vendor
LFB1--> Company code vendor
LFM1 --> Purchase vendor details
WYT3--> Partner functions
You might use LFM1 & WYT3 for this purpose as link is between purchase vendor and Partner function you will get there.
Hope this helps.

Calling user defined stored FUNCTIONS in report

Post Author: fahimghauri
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hi,
I want to call database stored functions in report, but when I connect to database using DATABASE EXPERT it shows me tables,view and stored procedures not functions. How can I import/use functions defined in database into my report?
I am connected with DB2 v9.
Thanks in advance

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
other soluce:bring your function in a view and join this view on your request. (Work only for simple return) Sample:CREATE function fn_GetAge ( @i_Name char(10) ) returns SMALLINTBEGIN declare @o_Age smallint select @o_Age from Employ where Name = @i_Name return @o_Age ENDCREATE VIEW dbo.v_UserAgeasSELECT Table2.Username, ISNULL(dbo.fn_GetAge(Table2.Username),0) as Age FROM Table2 WITH (NOLOCK)GO

Please suggest solutiion for calling a plsql function in report

Hi,
I did a small project using forms and reports 6i. Now i prepared a repor that will calucalate the sum(expenditure)per report level. Now the problem is i want to print the sum which is in number form , in words. That is if the sum is 50000 then i want to print "fifty thousand". For this conversion from number to figure i wrote a small programme , which successfully compiled and created a function.
Now I want to create a field in the report and in which I want to call this plsql function and perform the number conversion of sum(expenditure)per report field. Please describe in detail how to make reference between these two fields i.e sum(expenditure)per report and field in which I want to run plsql code and thereby converting the sum into figures.
the programme i used to convert currency from number to words is please see link.http:/orafaq.com/scripts/cheqprint.txt
Thanks in advance
Prasanth a.s.

Hi,
If the amount does not exceed more than 5,373,484 then you can use the following method to print the number in words.
Test Db>Select to_char( to_date(5373484,'J'),'Jsp') from dual ;
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(5373484,'J'),'JSP')
Five Million Three Hundred Seventy-Three Thousand Four Hundred Eighty-Four
There's no need to write DB function unless you are sure that the value can exceed 5373484.
You can do the following :
1. Create a Summary column on the report column on which you want the data summed - Report level or at any level required
2. Create a Formula Column - Report Level or any other level - Wherever required [ Same level as in Step 1]
3. The trigger text of this formula column would use the column which is summation of the Expenditure field column (Summary Column) and this function should return Varchar2
Declare
lSumInWords Varchar2(1000) := Null;
Begin
Select TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(:CS_1,'J'),'JSP')
Into lSumInWords
From dual;
Return (lSumInWords);
End;
3. In Your report layout, use this formula column for printing.
Good Luck.

DECODE Function In Reports 3.0

Hi,
When I use the decode function in a query (Reports 3.0.5.8.0) I receive an error message "Bind Variable Does Not Exist" (ORA-1006). When I remove the decode function from the query, the query compiles fine. All table and column references are existing.
Also, the same query runs perfectly fine from SQL*Plus. The OS is Win 2000, SP2
Any idea if this is a bug? Is there any way out? Do get back as this is very urgent.
The database is Oracle 8i Ent, 8.1.7 on AIX 4.3
The query is as follows:
SELECT NAM_CMP , COD_CMP , COD_CMP_REG ,
DECODE(FLG_CMP_SHP,'Y','S/',' /') || DECODE(FLG_CMP_AGT,'Y','A/',' /') || DECODE(FLG_CMP_CNE,'Y','C',' ') TYPE ,
DES_ADD_STT , DES_ADD_PLC , DES_ADD_STA , DES_ADD_POS , COD_CTY , COD_cou_iso ,
DAT_LST_AST , DAT_LST_UPD,
cod_dcl_box_num, decode(cod_imp_chg_way,'C','CASH','CREDIT') cod_imp_chg_way,
decode(cod_imp_cre_way,'W','WEEKLY','F','FIFTEEN DAYS','M','MONTHLY', NULL) cod_imp_cre_way,
decode(flg_imp_prn_inv, 'N', null, flg_imp_prn_inv) flg_imp_prn_inv,
cod_bro_box_num, decode(cod_exp_chg_way,'C','CASH','CREDIT') cod_exp_chg_way,
decode(cod_exp_cre_way,'W','WEEKLY','F','FIFTEEN DAYS','M','MONTHLY', NULL) cod_exp_cre_way,
decode(flg_exp_prn_inv, 'N', null, flg_exp_prn_inv) flg_exp_prn_inv
FROM CMP
where dat_can is null

Try TO_CHAR(NULL) instead of NULL in all DECODE functions.
For example:
decode(cod_imp_cre_way,'W','WEEKLY','F','FIFTEEN DAYS','M','MONTHLY', TO_CHAR(NULL))
instead of:
decode(cod_imp_cre_way,'W','WEEKLY','F','FIFTEEN DAYS','M','MONTHLY', NULL).

Yes, that is good info. I am still not sure if you are using custom or default websites(?).
On your development computer, open IIS (Start | Run -> Inetmgr). Is your application installed under default websites or under a custom web site?
I suspect you are using custom web site and the aspnet_client folder and it's subfolders are not included under the custom website. E.g.; default web site will use files from c:inetpubwwrootaspnet_client. Ensure that the aspnet_client folder and it's subfolders are copied under the custom website. Also, have a look at [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50aa68c0-82dd-2b10-42bf-e5502b45cd3a] article. It explains the aspnet_client folder and it's subfolders in some detail.

Error while using user defined function in reports

Hi,
When I use the below user defined function in oracle reports I got the wrong number of arguments error
select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
If I remove -14 from the argument it works. But iIneed to subtract 14 days from the date.
Thanks for your help.

select test_function(id,a_number,v_date-14,b_number) from dual;
you have to give the command like this to_date(v_date,'dd-mon-yyyy')-14
because the v_Date you choose in the parameter form is not having the corrent date format
the format dd-mon-yyyy is the format in which v_date is passed by the user.

Function in Report Builder

I have written a function in one of my reports. I get the error message "Element ST_ADDR is undefined in ADDRESS." when I try to run the report. My funtion looks like:
<cfargument name="ss" required="yes"/>
<CFSET variables.BoxNo = ''>
<cfquery name="qmailbox" dbtype="ODBC" datasource='#session.ds#'>
SELECT address.st_addr, address.type
FROM address
WHERE address.type = 'Campus' and address.soc_sec = '#arguments.ss#'
</cfquery>
<cfif qmailbox.recordcount gt 0>
<cfset variables.BoxNo = address.st_addr>
</cfif>
<cfreturn variables.BoxNo>
It is possible that there might not be a address.type of 'Campus' for every record passed to this function, that hy I check recordcount. I am open to any suggestions you have.
Thanks

Function in report

Hi, i created a function in my report, in the ''program unit'' and called that function in the query in data model but getting an error <invalid identifier...>, do you have any idea why this error? any help would be appreciated...Thanks.

1. you can only use database function in sql coz sql operates only in database table or view.
solution
1. you can create database side function to use it in sql
or 2. select the column in u'r sql, which u want to use as function parameter. Then take a formula column in u'r sql at reports and use u'r function.
Like
function CF_1Formula return Number is
begin
return salcom(:empno); --where salcom is a report side function (program unit)
end;hope this will help you..
If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

Using PRE Function to report field changes

Hi Everyone,
As they reporting on audit trail is not available, I was wondering if there was a work around using the PRE function (or any other way) in analytics.
We're looking to track Revenue changes with respect to Opportunities (so, if Opp A's Revenue ever changed since the first time the $ amount was submitted) - we're especially interested in reporting on weekly changes. If the weekly isn't possible, tracking any change would be helpful.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Why not create a workflow using the PRE() function to record the changes in a Task, you could then report on that task.
cheers
Alex

Bapi's do not set sy-subrc. The only way to check if it was succesfull is to loop into the return table for error messages:
You have to use BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after calling BAPI_PO_CREATE1:
    READ TABLE errmsg TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS
                        WITH KEY type = c_e.
    IF NOT sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
      CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
        EXPORTING
          wait = c_x.
