Sage Timberline and Crystal Reports.
I don't have much experience with Crystal Reports, and I'm trying to get Sage Timberline see a crystal report. It was working fine, but one of the users called Sage and Sage had them do an update. After the update Timberline will not see the report. Crystal report can open the design, so I don't think there is anything wrong with the crystal report.
Can anyone provide assistance trying to get Sage Timberline see that report again???? Thank you for any assistance..
I'm guessing Sage Timeberline is either looking in a different place for the report, or the upgrade blew away some configuration setting (or similar) that told it where the report was.
This is a question for Sage...

VS2008/VS2005 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer
Hi,
1.) I am using VS2008 and Crystal Reports 2008 Developer. Are there any issues I need to consider when developing using both of the above? (or with VS2005)
2.) The confusion for me is in regards to the SDK. From what I understand from articles etc is that using CR 2008 dev we can use the .NET SDK or RAS SDK for development purposes?
3.) So downloaded the sample code for RAS .NET from [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/businessobjects-samples?rid=/webcontent/uuid/80774579-b086-2b10-db91-ed58c4dda375] and tried "DatabaseLogon_CS" example, as the option. It automatically opened in VS2005 (no problem) however it would not run.
I would get an error :
Failed to connect to server "localhost".
Error returned from Windows Sockets API : 0.
and line causing this is >>> rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
Code below:
string sampleReportPath = @"C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\Samples\en\Reports\Demonstration\World Sales Report.rpt";
object path = (object)sampleReportPath;
// Create an instance of the ReportClientDocument.
ReportClientDocument rcd = new ReportClientDocumentClass();
// Set the location of the RAS server.
rcd.ReportAppServer = "localhost";
// Use the Open() method of the ReportClientDocument to open the report.
rcd.Open(ref path, 0);
I have been able to open the RPT file by itself. So it does 'see' the database.
Reason why it would not run?
Any help would be appreciated. ThanksIf you're using the sample code from our website, make sure you have uncommented the InprocRAS option in the ConfigureCrystalReports method (see below). From your error description it seems like you're using the unmanaged RAS option, which requires a RAS server.
private void ConfigureCrystalReports()
/* The following methods implement the same sample functionality in three different RAS
* scenarios. Uncomment the method you would like to use.
* - inprocRAS() logs onto a databse using RAS and SQL authentication.
* - managedRAS() logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from a managed RAS server.
* - unmanagedRAS () logs onto a database using RAS and SQL authentication from an unmanaged RAS server.
* Undocument the call to the method which applies to your appropriate RAS settings.

Views on CF Report Builder and Crystal Report
Dear all,
I would like to get your opinions on CF Report Builder and
Crystal Report.
As we all know, CF Report Builder is a new reporting tool.
But I find it very difficult to design a complex report maybe due
to limitation in its functionalities. Sometimes the tool shutdowns
by itself without any warning and reason. But the output is nicely
presented on a flash paper / pdf and it can be run on non-MS
platforms.
On the other hand, Crystal Report is a more matured product
but runs only on MS platform. It is very easy to use and very
powerful. I have been using it for almost 10 years. But the output
is not nicely presented on the web browser unless if we purchase
Crystal Report Enterprise to generate the report which is very
costly.
Can you all share your views? I need to make decision which
tool(s) to use. Really appreciate it.
Cheers,
KeikoHi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks

Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System, and Visual Studio
Editor. Based on your Crystal Reports printing issue, I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue. Therefore,
I suggest you can ask your issue directly on SAP Crystal Reports:
http://scn.sap.com/community/crystal-reports/content?filterID=content~objecttype~objecttype[thread]
for better solution and support.

Migration between SharePoint07 and Crystal Reports - please Help !
I downloaded trial ver. of CR XI R2 with SP3 ( version 11.5.9.1076)

We have Crystal Reports v10 with license but I want to try migrating SharePoint with Crystal reports
and if it will be OK we will purchase the new version.
My purpose is to install the integration kit (keep asking for SP3 in installation menu)
Do I need to Install Business Objects XI 3.1 in order to install the integration kit to SharePoint 07 ?
Where can I download it (trial) ? SAP site keep deny me.

Vb6 deployment and Crystal Report 8.5
Hi,
I tried to deploy a Visual Basic 6 on a client pc that use Crystal Report 8.5.
Because no merge files exist for this version of Crystal Report I tried to added all the necessary dll in the deploy package (using visual basic 6 tools deployment).
I read the file Runtime.hlp so I added every dll wriiten in this file.
When I run my setup I always have this error :
The program can't start because CRPE32.dll is missing from your computer.
It's strange because I added this dll to my deployment package.
So I don't no what to do anymore.
Need some help to solve this problem because I know it's easier with more recent version of Crystal Report because of the merge file but right now this software need CR 8.5.
Regards,
HugoHi,
Ok here what I'm trying to do.
I have an application Visual Basic 6 that use crystal report 8.5 to export the report in pdf using the dll cradxt.dll by programming.
On the dev pc I have Visual Studio 6.0 and Crystal Report 8.5 installed.
I want to install this software on another PC so I created a deployment package, automatically the pakage added the "necessary" dlls.
But is not enough I need to added more on the client pc so it's hard even if I read the Runtime.hlp that come with Crystal Report 8.5 and I added all the dll it always seems to miss somes.
So I was wondering if a merge module or something exist like the other version of Crystal Reports to install the necessary dlls on a clients pc.
Otherwise what is the best way to do it ?

Dear Experts,
We want to know the difference between Crystal Report Version with VS 2010 and Crystal Report Profesional Version.
And from where we should buy it provide the link.
Thanking you,
Miral ShahIf you are looking for difference in features, see this.

You could design your report with any one of CR 2008/2011/2013 and still could use in the app with 13 version references.

Difference between Crsytal Report 2011 and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4
difference between Crystal Report 2011 and Crystal Report for Enterprise 4.0?
I think Crystl Reprt 2011 has more function, is it right?Hi,
I recently attended a SAP Virtual trianing on SAP Business Objects BI 4.0.
Here are few extracts from that which probably shows some light to you:
SAP Crystal Reports 2011
1. UI and associated processing servers remain the same as CR 2008
2. Incremental update to CR 2008 with a few new features*
3. Continue to provide current CR 2008 functionality as-is for existing customers
SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0
1. Major update & redesign of the Crystal Reports Designer and associated processing servers
2. Focus on streamlined report design, reporting against BI 4.0 Universe, & reporting against SAP BW data
3. Provide the foundation for all future releases of Crystal Reports
Differences between these two releases:
Data Source & Usage Type General Recommendation
1. SAP BusinessObjects BI 4.0 SAP Crystal Reports Relational Universe (UNX) for Enterprise
OLAP Universe (UNX)
2. SAP NetWeaver BW 7 BEx Query (BICS) SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise
3. SAP NetWeaver BW 3.5 BEx Query SAP Crystal Reports 2011
4. SAP Profitability Cost Management SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise through Analysis View
SAP Strategy Management
SAP Budget, Planning and Consolidation
SAP Extended Analytics
5. Platform Driven Alerting SAP Crystal Reports for Enterprise

Crystal reports and crystal report viewer
Hi.
I have up to recently used crystal report version 11.5 and reports have been made available for users in the organisation via Crystal report viewer.2010 ver 11.2.1.3.
The reports have been saved without data, and the different parameters have been available for the users for them to select approriate dataset,.
I have now upgraded Crystal reports to version 2013 ver 14.1 and crystal report viewer to same version.
The problem now is that the parameters are no longer available for the users, and it is also a requirement to save the reports incl a dataset to even open the report in the new report viewer.
What have I missed? Anyone that can help me ?
brgds TorunnHi Torunn
An alternative may be to create a web app using either the Crystal Reports .NET or Java SDK. Depending on what development software you already have, this may be cheaper than CR Server or "BO server". E.g.; both the .NET SDK and the Java SDK are free:
SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
SAP BusinessObjects - SAP Crystal Reports, Version For Eclipse Download
The above would be predicated on the assumption that your org has some developer experience (or is willing to acquire it) and that you have the development software (e.g.; VS 2010, or 2012, or 2013 for the CR SDK for .NET).

My hospital uses both Epic and Cerner Reporting. As a business objects admin I was asked to integrate Epic with Crystal Reports. I'm Using BOE XI 3.1 and Crystal Reports 2008, I want a planning to integrate my Crystal reports server with Epic reporting. Any ideas how can I start the integration and step by step procedure to follow while integration.
Edited by: nrkc@99 on Jan 27, 2012 9:02 PMHi,
You might need to create ODBC connection in BOBJ server to access EPIC.

Help requested on WEBI and Crystal Reports
Hi All,
1. Our Sys Admin has installed Business Objects XI Enterprise Server on the Corporate Development Server. The objective is to develop few WEBI objects and Crystal Reports and deploy on the Development Server for further testing. What developer tools I need on my local system to develop WEBI Objects and Crystal Reports?
2. For crystal reports is there a need to develop universe, or is it possible to fetch from the database directly if the DB meets all the data needs?
Thanks in advance
SunnyHi gudurusk,
For CR creation the you need Crystal Reports. Thats a Report developing Tool which needs to be installed local on your Desktop PC
WebI is a Java based Reporting Tool. So you create your Reports in a Web Browser. You LogIn to InfoView and click New -> Web Intelligence Document and start.
Crystal can do both. It can report of a Universe and can by directly connected to your DB.

BOBJ Auditing - Activity Universe and Crystal Reports
Here are the user requests. Are these possible with BOBJ Auditor? There are some sample reports in Infoview Public folders and Activity Universe connection is working.
1. User and Group access and type of access to all folders and Crystal reports.
2.Develop a report of the inventory of all scheduled reports indicating report name, location, frequency/schedule and distribution list (include FTP / file location if not e-mail).
A monthly report would probably be sufficient and would be used to facilitate management oversight of report distribution.
3.An inventory of all reports indicating report name, location, database connection, scheduled or not scheduled, when created, when last time run, by whom
4.Automated report for failed instances - Crystal report failures within folders. Most of the reports are run overnight
Environment: BOXI R2, Crystal Reports, Activity UniverseHello,
I'll attempt to answer your question. I should point out that not everything you need is an audited event. You might be better served by the Query Builder for some of your requirements.
1. It is possible to create a list of all folders/ reports a user/group has access to. The type of access a user/group has is not audited.
2. This is possible (more or less). You might have to move the distribution list portion to a different tab/ report.
3. Again, I'm uncertain how much of this info is audited. Needless to say, a report that has never been run will have no audit information. Report name and location (i.e. within BOE) are audited. It doesn't look like the database connection is audited.
4. This is possible and relatively simple.
Best,
Srinivas
