Running Report Directly from SAP Menu

Hi ,
I have to know that , I have created a report and given it a transaction code . There is also a standard report which output almost the same result .
Now I want that standard report not to be shoen in the SAP menu on the left hand side and instead of it I want My reports transaction code to be visible so that the enduser is at an ease not to remember the Transaction code to run that report .
So how can I go for it ?
PLease advice .
Thanx & Regards

How to run reports directly from R/3 tables

We are about to implement BW but the client wants to run temporary reports directly off R/3 tables. How can this be accomplished? Do we just use business content or r there other ways?
Thanks

I created a join of 3 tables using SQVI in BI 7.0. Nobody else but me can see this query join. Is there a way to save this to somwhere public, so others can access this view? Maybe "Save As"??
If possible, please provide steps to do this.
Thank in advance!

Problem to run the Crystal report inside from SAP B1 based on SQL views.

Hello,
I have a problem to run my Crystal report inside from SAP B1 which is based on SQL views.And the SQL views are stored in a separate database in SQL server.The error which i am getting is saying the the tablename does not exist.What i need to do in order to sort this problem.
Great if somebody can help me to sort out this so that i can run my report based on SQL views stored on separate database other than SAP databases inside from SAP B1.

Try using a SQL synonym in your company database for the views outside the company database. I don't know if SBO will let you get away with it, but its worth a shot.
If your company database is MyCompany and you have a view called MyView in Views database, assuming the view belongs to schema dbo, and you want the synonym to belong to dbo schema in your company database, run this:
Use MyCompany
go
create synonym dbo.OutsiderView for
Views.dbo.MyView
go
select * from OutsiderView
The select statement should return the contents of MyView in the Views database while you are connected to your MyCompany database.
For more info, see the Books Online for MSSQL on topic synonym.
You will need to change your CR options to include displaying synonyms along with tables, views, etc. You may also need to grant select to B1 users.

Problem with starting Crystal Report document from SAP Gui

Dear all,
in Crystal Reports I created my first report (based on a BW query), which is executed successfully, when I run it directly from CR or from Infoview. The report is stored directly in BW and has been published successfulyl to BOE.
If I try to run it native from the SAP Gui, the following steps happen:
Internet Explorer is started with the following link:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/ce_url?(ce_protcl):(DS)(ce_server)/(ce_path_pr)/viewreport.csp(Q)bw_id=4I4B2HQG8KK2ICFPONVIG5D9Q&sap_sysid=(sysid)&sap_client=010&language=EN&sap-client=010
this link is transcoded to the following:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/=ce_protcl)%3a//MONHAMBO020.world.mon:8080%2fSAP%2fviewreport.csp(Q&sap_sysid=BWP&sap_client=010&language=EN&sap-client=010&sap-language=EN&cmsname=MONHAMBO020.world.mon
(I already entered /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER handler in the ce_url service)
and afterwards I get an error 404 -> corresponding service not available
which is obvious, as a service =ce_protcl is not existing at alkl.
If I then execute my CR document again from SAPGui (without closing the IE), the standard BOE login page for the infoview is displayed, but I get an error:
Account information not recognized: The credentials passed to secSAPR3 [] are invalid. Use the following format: sid~clnt/user
I can logon with my BW credentials, and afterwards I can see my CR document.
Any idea, what went wrong?
Thanks,
Andreas

Dear Ingo,
the basic installation of all BOE components was done by the SAP installation service and I checked several times your blog(s) and the corresponding parts on the BOE server and in BW. From my point of view we did all necessary configuration steps on BOE and BW (/CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN) which are necessary to setup the BOE software and the connections.
I checked again the HTTP handler and it still says: /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER
I stopped and restarted the service, but with no effect at all -> I do not think that I need a restart of the server, right?
My user is as well existing on the BOE server and I can logon to the BOE with my SAP credentials.
I guess as well that the key to the success is the HTTP handler. The first link I provided is the link that is shown in IE, before I logged on to the BW server and I think this is correct, as the transcodification is done after(!) I logged on to the BW server.
A part of the transcodification is as well working, as I can see the replacement of my ce_server, sysid, etc. But it seems to me that the first part of the string is crap:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/=ce_protcl)%3a
Any further ideas?
Thanks and best regards,
Andreas

Printing Reports directly from to a printer via 10g forms (Linux)

Hi all,
I need to be able to print Reports directly from a form to a printer (bypassing the form output) on Linux (RHEL 5). The trick here is this is Linux, not windows so, wasn't sure how to deal with printers in this case.
I have the option working where I can run a report and set the options to "Cache" and PDF and it displays my outputted report directly in a new browser window w.
I use the SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY, RUN_REPORT_OBJECT, and WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT properly for the PDF in a window.
a.) I want to send them directly to a printer, preferably to a user's default printer on their PC, bypassing the output screen. How can I accomplish this?
b.) I also would like the ability to generate a PDF (bypassing the output on a browser window) and put the form in a specified directory on a client's PC (which is what I used in 6i Client/Server). I believe I need to utilitize the WebUtil to allow this to happen. Otherwise, I'm thinking I just build a queue for the user on the Linux server and build a screen that shows all the reports they've generated for the past X amount of days and let them open them up and print from there.
Any help (particulary for Part A) would be very beneficial.
Chris

1)
if your app server is on a Linux server, for direct printing to work, the printer must be setup and accessible under Linux server using system-config-printer command, for PDF printout you probably want a postscript option checked
if you print to screen (PDF) and then use print option then your windows client machine must have access to the printer
2)
you must pass this printer name as part of the report parameters.
set_report_object_property(oRptObj, report_destype, Printer);
and
hidden_action := hidden_action ||'&report='|| cRptSrcFile; -- source of report program to call
hidden_action := hidden_action ||'&destype='|| cDesType;
hope this helps

Error when printing a PDF direct from SAP archive

Hi together,
I try to print a PDF direct from SAP archive and I got the error ""C:\Program files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\reader\AcroRd.exe" /p /h" not found. In the internet I found several topics which describe this way to print a PDF without open the Acrobat Reader.
The customizing for document management (Local application) seems o.k. If I remove in the registry the parameters /h /p for print, Acrobat Reader will open and show the document if I use the print button in SAP.
Have anybody an idea what the reason is?
Thank you.

Thomas

I usually use the OS connection option. So as you suggest, connect without the ISP connection software. Doing so does not by-pass the sudo command being active in Activity Monitor however.
On reading my post I see my failure to link the concerns of the laptop purchase with the sudo and modem. My thought here is of an intersection of known vulnerability with this widely used modem/software (via permanent sudo process activated) and that vulnerability then being known and utilised by another party(s).
I am pursuing the issue in part with consideration to a broader possible issue of vulnerability.
Thanks again for your thoughts and suggestions. Valued.

From SAP Menu Hit List

Hi all,
This is my first post, so bear with me. I'm creating roles in ECC 6.0. I've been given a list of tcodes that need to be added to these roles. The way I've been told to do this is to click on 'From SAP Menu' and then find every single instance of where this tcode is located in the menu. I then click on them one by one, hit find next, and keep going until they're all there. Then it takes me back to the main Menu screen. I then hit 'Collapse Menu' to clean up the Role menu.
My question is, what is the quicker way of doing this? When I click on 'From SAP Menu' and then type in a tcode to search for, there's a button that says 'Hit List." That brings up a separate box that gives you a list of how many times that transaction is found in the SAP Menu. Is there a way to import that list into the search screen so that all instances of that tcode are marked to be inserted into the Menu list?
I hope all that makes sense.
Thank you,
Kerri

Hi Kerri,
If you are given with the list of tcodes to be added, then go to Menu.
Click on the "Transaction", Enter the transactions given to you and once you are done with this, click on "Assign Transactions".
Hope it helps.
Please award points if it is useful.
Thanks & Regards,
Santosh

Run reports direct to printer

Hello all:
In developer 6i i created a form with two buttons , one to run reports on the screen (P_RunReport('report_name','SCREEN'); )the other is to run reports directly to the printer (P_RunReport('report_name','printer');),
Now when i convert this form in developer 10g both buttons run reports on the screen,So how can i direct reports to printer within the same form?.
Thanks alot.

I believe you'll be using Set_report_object somewhere in your code.
Shall you check exactly which value is going into that?
If you are sure that the value is going in is "SCREEN' or 'PRINTER', could you debug into the reports trace file?
That might help you.
Warm Regards,
Raja.

Runnning report from Sap menu screen

hi
my client is running loan management module. in some transaction when he presses a button on the sap menu ( something called cash flow) , SAP generates a table with all calculated values and stuff ( like a report ) . they want a different output format . how can i write a custom report that takes all the values from the transaction and gets executed when he presses the same button on the menu but with the format they want.
( they do not want to make this a standalone report)

What sort of "report" does this transaction produce? Is it a list display(WRITE statements) or an ALV grid. If it is a list display, it would be possible to write a custom program, which SUBMITs the standard report, export the resulting list to memory, import that list into memory, and pick it apart and reformat to the way you want. This is all possible, but it should be a report program and produce a list display.

Run SBO report directly from SDK

Hi, is there a way to run an SBO report (for example Service Contracts) directly from SDK? The report should be given the necessary parameters too.
I know that i can call Service Contracts form, simulate a query to find the appropriate record and then simulate a click on print preview button. This way it will undoubtedly work.
But I would prefer opening the print preview directly, without the need of opening another form, that slows down the whole process. Is there a way to do this?

Tamas,
There is currently not an object via the SDK to directly run a report. You would have to use the work around that you mentioned.
