Report Designer Heading

Hi,
I have created a Report in Report Designer and executing the same in the portal. My report has a Header, report section and Footer. In the Report section of the Report, the first row is the Heading of the columns like Material, customer, sold to party, Bill to party, etc.. When i execute the report in the portal, this heading row is displayed in the first page. When i move to the second page, i could only see the header, footer & the values but not the Heading row. I want the Heading row also to appear in all of the pages in Portal. I have checked all the options available in Report Designer but couldnt find anything relevant to this.
Any help on this? Thanks for all ur time.
Regards,
Murali

Murali,
ONLY the "Header Section" and "Footer Section" will be displayed on each page. If you want the column headings to display on every page you must put them in the Header Section of the report. Just add columns to the Header to match your report format then type in your columns headers in the "Header section."
NOTE: When you first add a header section to the report it adds it as one big row (really one big column). Just click the top of the default header row and add columns to match your formatting. Then resize them to fit the page.
If you need, you can also MERGE cells together (similar to Excel) to get the length required for your formatting.
Hope that helps

How to hide currency ($) display in Report Designer

Hi Reporting experts,
My query has amounts in keyfigure structure. When I use WAD or run directly from the query the display of $ sign is showing only on the top row, but when I use the same query in the report designer the $ is showing on every cell. How to avoid displaying the $ in RD.
Thanks for your help.

Ram,
Create a formula and use the function NODIM(<your KF>) and hide you KF column which shows the $ sign. This would suppress the $ sign.
Hope this helps...

How can I re-display the header of table on next pages (report designer)

In the report designer, I insert a data provider. The fist line is the field name.
When I browse the report, the field name line can't display on the second page, only on the first page.
How can I do to display it on next pages?
Thanks
Eva

Look at the code of the MouseListener to see what method it invokes and then just invoke the method directly.
Or you can create a MouseEvent and use the Component,dispatchEvent(...) method.

Creating a custom report with detailed header and then associated detail

I am very new to CRMOD, so this question may be basic, but I have not found any good material yet to help me out, so here goes.
We are trying to create a Quote report that will be sent to our customers. The report needs to have both a header and detail section basically as follows:
<Header>
Quote Form
Date:
Expiration Date:
Sales Person Name:
Customer Name and address
Terms
... some other text data ...
<Detail>
Standard fields that define the quote, these are easy.
What I cannot determine how to do is create the header section. In the report designer, it only allows for a Title, logo, and another text line. Can anyone suggest another method?

I do not have the narrative option.
Options available are:
Title
Table
Chart
Pivot Table
Gauge
Active Filters
legend
Advanced
--> Column Selector
--> View Selector
--> Funnel Chart
--> Ticker
According to the documentation, the narrative view should be available from the advanced menu. Am I on a different package by chance?

How to create a report using XML data source from Crystal Report Designer

Hi,
Iu2019m having Crystal Report Designer XI R2 SP4. Iu2019m trying to create a report using XML data source stored on disk. This is a customer order report and the xml is structured in such a way that it has an order details header part (master) and then it has several order lines (detail). One order line can have several order line characteristics (detail-detail). So what I need to know is now I can design this layout from the designer. If this was done using views I can do it with sub-reports but using xml data this seems to be different. Can you help me to design this layout? I have included the xml and xsd as well.
Thank you in advance.

Chanaka

Hi Sourashree,
Thank you for the response and ideas you have given me so far. I can get the fetch the data from the data source without any problem. That is I do the following,
1. New Report
2. From Create New Connection-> XML
3. Provide the u201CLocal XML Fileu201D and have u201CSpecify Schema Fileu201D checked -> Next
4. Provide the u201CLocal Schema Fileu201D -> Finish
Then I can see the following under XML
+ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
And from here if I add the following three I can get all the fields I need to the report
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE
 CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP_REQUEST/ CUSTOMER_ORDER_CONF_REP/ORDER_LINES/ORDER_LINE/ORDER_LINE_CHARACTERSTICS/CHARACTERSTIC_ITEM
Then I come to the Linking section. Here I canu2019t link anything. There is a common field called u201CInternal_IDu201D but I canu2019t link using it. So I get a message when I click Next. From here I add all the fields.
For this point onwards only I need help. How do I group, add fields and design the layout so I can get an report output as follows.
Date

Characteristic details belonging to Order line 5
How can I achieve this kind of a layout using the give xml and xsd? Should I use grouping if so how should I do the grouping?
I have included the full xml and xsd in the first mail I posted but I canu2019t see it now. I can include that again if you want.

Chanaka

To view reports in new page for each cutomer using Report Designer

HI all
I have a requirement to view the data (key figures) for each customer in a new page.
I have created the same using the Report Designer tool.
Now there is setting for this Group Header 'Customer' i have selected the option 'repeat group header on each page'
still the query when generated, gives fine results for certain cases but not for all.
like it will show the each customers in a fresh page for some pages , then in midst there would some 2-3 customers in the same page.
There is no relation between these customers , they are same as the other customers, no difference at all.then i am not able to figure out the reason why it is behaving so odd.
Thanks
Ramesh

Ramesh,
right now there really is no way to solve what you are looking for. There partial solutions, but you will not be able to force a page break in a dynamic report.
Here is what I have faced, and what I have come up with so far:
I have a series of reports that have the same column heading, but spread over 5 pages in a fixed structure. I need to be able to re-use the header and the general report design with 6 reports. Here is my solution:
1. Create an outline of the report. I did all the formatting by creating a report section for each page. You can force page breaks between the pages. Upgrade to patch 1502 (came out last week) and you will see some new functionality (such as fit to page, page numbers, etc).
2. Insert all you page breaks and do all the formatting.
3. Insert an infoprovider. Once in, you can just drag and drop the key figure cells into your formatted report.
4. Create additional modification for formatting as needed.
This fixes my problem (for now), but I had to do a lot of work to come up with this. Also, the latest patch (1501 and 1502) has created an issue for me - there is a null exception when I try to use a variable or a filter value in the report body - I can't save the report. I have an OSS message out, but our BASIS guys are going to be taking the lead on troubleshooting this.
The reason that you are seeing some customers on the new pages is probably because of "how the cookie falls" - they just fit that way.
I am trying to be positive and overcome the limitations that are in place right now. If my technical issue is solved, I would recommend upgrading to the new patch (1403 is the latest stable one in my opinion)
good luck
Pavel

Report design Grouping problem

I'm currently designing a report, something like an invoice. The invoice number is usually on the page header. But now i want to create a report to list down all the invoice numbers in the 'details' but when i drag the 'invoice number' data to 'details'
it only show 1 row of numbers, wheareas the data has few rows of it. How can i make it view all my numbers?

Hi Eugene,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is discuss the VS test issue, so
I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue.
As you said that the report design grouping problem, I suggest you could try to consult this issue directly to the VS Report Controls forum:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=vsreportcontrols , maybe you will get better support.

2. Insert all you page breaks and do all the formatting.
3. Insert an infoprovider. Once in, you can just drag and drop the key figure cells into your formatted report.
4. Create additional modification for formatting as needed.
This fixes my problem (for now), but I had to do a lot of work to come up with this. Also, the latest patch (1501 and 1502) has created an issue for me - there is a null exception when I try to use a variable or a filter value in the report body - I can't save the report. I have an OSS message out, but our BASIS guys are going to be taking the lead on troubleshooting this.
The reason that you are seeing some customers on the new pages is probably because of "how the cookie falls" - they just fit that way.
I am trying to be positive and overcome the limitations that are in place right now. If my technical issue is solved, I would recommend upgrading to the new patch (1403 is the latest stable one in my opinion)
good luck

XL Reporter: Report Designer - Sales Document Type as Column

Hi Everyone,
I have a question regarding report layout in XL Reporter - Report Designer. Here's the scenario:
I have created a Sales Volume Report wherein the report should be able to display the quantity per material per sales document type (Sales Order, Invoice, Credit Memo). The Sales Document type is expanded as Column so that the user can view the total per Sales Document. My problem is, can i re-arrange the order of display of the 3 sales document selected. The current (and I think the default order is alphabethical) which is A/R Credit Memo, A/R Invoice, Sales Order. Can I re - arrange it in my Report Designer so that Sales Order will be the 1st column, followed by the A/R Invoice then lastly the A/R Credit Memo?
Another question, can I change the Display Name of the 3 Sales Document Type? By default, the Sales Document Name is being retrieved by the system. For other fields which where not expanded as column, I can easily change the Display name of the field, but for the sales document, I don't have an idea. Hope anyone can help me.
Thanks in advance.

If you want the document types in a specific order, don't add as an expansion, but as individual summary comuns, then you can add them in the order you want.
You can use simple Excel formula to rename the columns - hide the row with the column names & add a new row with if statements based on the value in the cell e.g. if (cell = 'Invoice" , "Inv-AR",'')
