Scheduled Crystal Report with Enterprise Portal

Hi all,
I want to Schedule that Crystal Report which is retrieving data from EXCEL. For that I have followed the following Steps.
Login into CMCApp.
Select the required rpt file and clicked the Schedule.
It opens the Schedule Screen.
In that I have specified the Recurrence Parameter as Hourly. Every 5 min the data is updated and Scheduled For as administrator.
Initially the portal display the saved data in the crystal report. If I click the refresh button manually, then only it displays the updated Data.
The status of object is Success, while seeing the History of the Object. If I click the View Latest Instance in CMCApp, It shows the updated data(Refreshed Data).
Whether I am following the Correct Steps? Other than this What I have to do for scheduling?
How can I retrieve the data from View Latest Instance? Is it possible? or by default Portal displays the saved data ?
Help me in this regard
Thanks & regards,
Hemalatha J

Integration of BO reports with Enterprise portal

How can i integrate BO reports with Enterprise Portal.

I am stuck on configuring the area of the visor for the system that will connect to BO i already typed the domain url to leave it able to SSO but no for the visor. If anyone knows how to do this.

Hi Sreedhar,
Did you find any option Scheduling for the report with in crystal designer.
We need Crystal Enterprise or Server to schedule the reports at regular intervals.
We can schedule the report for our required destination, we can view the reports with default viewers with in the Enterprise.
There is no need of using any third party tools.

Scheduling Crystal report from Infoview portal doesn't show up data

"The crystal report is based on a SAP BI query. The parameters of the report are basically the parameters(SAP variables) of the SAP BI query. When we run the crystal report in the CR Report Designer tool, it runs fine showing all the data correctly. Then we published the crystal report to the Crystal Enterprise Server from the SAP BI system. Through the Infoview portal, the user clicks on the 'Schedule' link for the report and sets the parameters. When the 'Schedule' button is clicked, it runs successfully but no data is seen in the report except for the template. But under the same report, in Infoview portal, if the user selects "View" link, sets the parameters and then clicks the 'Execute' button, it runs successfully showing all correct data.
Dont understand why it works for 'View' link but doesn't work for 'Schedule' link. Is there any setting that needs to be made for this?"
Thanks in advance,
Sri

Once you tick the schedule button the History window opens and you should see your instance. Status is usually pending and after a refersh (scheduled for run now) you should get the status running/successfull or failed. What is your status here and what happend if you tick on the instance once you get the status successfull?

Integrating Crystal reports with Java Portal (test=pluto,Prod=Vignette

Hi,
Crystal reports is new to me...so please don't mind if i sound outright silly, and would love a shove in the correct direction.
This question might have been asked here (I tried searching for this.)
Problem: We have some old CR9 reports with us which we want to migrate to our Portal installation Vignette Portal.
I have seen some Portal integration kits but after having a look at them it seems it is ir-relevant to us...as it requires some server running...we don't have that.

Update:
After more investigation, it looks as if the BO Server "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer"
from time to time has an issue - not only when promoting, but also when viewing publications that contain Crystal Report documents or when executing them, the java class error or similar issue is thrown.
Did sb face similar behaviour and knows what is the root cause for "CrystalReports2013ReportApplicationServer" not working probably and throwing the java-class error? - it was running fine for several months, now, the class error showed up twice in one month.
We need to find out what is causing the issue (aleady checked tomcat and BO-logfiles...).
Best Regards
Florian

Scheduling Crystal Report with Subreport in BOE 12.0.0.683

I have scheduled a crystal report in BOE that contains a subreport. The report successfully completes, but the data for the subreport is blank. I know there are records for the subreport because they are there when I run the subreport manually in crystal. Is there a way to fix this?

hi,
You can set the Idle connection time out parameter to desired value (in minutes) for Processing server using CMC.

Schedule Crystal Reports on BOE with Parameters

Hi
I would like to schedule Crystal reports with parameters on BOE. How can I pass a parameter if the job is scheduled to run nightly?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello!
I am going to assume that you know how to schedule a report to run nightly and how to set the parameters/prompts, and what you are really asking is how to change what the parameter/prompt value will be every night?
If that is the case there is no default functionally that can do that. How ever you could create a Java application (or another supported programming language) application that will run as a Program Job Object. The PGO (Program Job Object) will be what is scheduled nightly. Inside the PGO you would schedule your report to "run now" with the parameters/prompts you want for that night.
I hope I have answered your question. Cheers!

Scheduling Crystal Report to fax

Hello,
We have a requirement to schedule the Crystal Report to fax through Crystal Report Server 2008.
We use rightfax server with email gateway configured to SMPT server to send fax as email . In order to send fax as email right fax server uses addressing scheme like below for email address.

In Crystal Report Server, I scheduled crystal report with destination as email and for " To field :" entered email address following above addressing scheme. But crystal report server does not recognize above addressing scheme as email address and job fails. Please advice if there is any way to resolve this or achieve my requirement through Crystal Report server.
Thank you.

Hi Sri,
When we are able to see the report and unable to schedule the report with in the Info view, then check with the user rights.
Just try to login with admin account and try to schedule the report.
Also check the report in CMC and see the preview of the report.
If the user doesn't have enough rights to schedule the report, then it doesn't allow it.
Also check with in the Folder rights with in the report is saved.

Naveen.

Publishing Crystal Reports for Enterprise error

When I try to publish a Crystal Reports for Enterprise report, using Publication options, in order to send it by email to three of my users, it shows the following error:
2014-07-03 10:20:32,390 ERROR [PublishingService:HandlerPool-1] BusinessObjects_PublicationAdminErrorLog_Instance_16070 - [Publication ID # 16070] - Scheduling document job "Users - with Logon Events" (ID: 16,077) failed: Exception in formula '{@Record_Selection}' at 'and (
({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Larry") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Curly") or ({Auditing.Events\User Name} = "Moe")
The remaining text does not appear to be part of the formula. (CRS 300003) (FBE60502)
[3 recipients processed.]
It is weird because the report is one of those that are by default used for Auditing and it runs perfectly when I run it manually or by Schedule. The problem is when I include it in a Publication, so it can be filtered automatically based on the list of users.
I tried with another of those reports that come with Auditing, and it has the same problem. Is it a bug? Are you able to replicate this error in your environment? I'm using Crystal Reports 2013 sp3.

Hi Abhilash,
I am able to open and edit other reports on the server without problem. I believe that they are the same version and pack. Here are my versions:
CR for Enterprise Version 14.1.3.1257, Build 2013 Support Pack 3.
SAP BusinessObjects BI Platform 4.1 Support Pack 3, Version 14.1.3.1257
When CRE displays an error like this, is there further information in a log or recorded anywhere else? How does one go about finding details?

Can not view/schedule Crystal Reports in new BOE XI 3.0 Installation

Hello,
I'm having an issue on a brand new installation of BusinessObjects XI 3.0 on AIX 5.2 (using WebSphere 6.0). Installation went smoothly and migration went fine. Can log in, pull up CMC, InfoView (all other apps). But scheduled Crystal Reports (as well as viewing Crystal Report thru InfoView) are failing with the following errors (which to me seem interrelated):
*(1) Error in File ~cec0c55d91e0e015.rpt: The request could not be submitted for background processing*
*(2) Error in Report XXX: Failed to load database information*
*(3) An error occurred while creating a subprocess in the processing server. [RCIRAS0604]*
These three errors indicate to me that the report engines are having issues opening the files, pulling the data and generating the reports. We've checked to make sure that the account that BOE is running under has all the permissions it needs - and it has.
I just turned on tracing (-trace) on the report job processing servers and I'm watching the logs as I retrace my steps...
Any ideas? Would appreciate any feedback...
Thanks,
Will

Turns out this is a pretty nasty issue on Unix environments. Being that the BOE application is developed on Windows then ported to Unix environments, the services (daemons) still end up depending on an emulated registry (MainWin) sort of like in a Windows environment.
For some reason (we're still trying to figure this out), the BOE registry entries got corrupted and then started preventing the processing servers (which in the case of CR ultimately depend on CRPE - Crystal Reports Print Engine) from opening up and processing CR files.
We engaged BusinessObjects/SAP support and have been able to resolve this issue on our test AIX system. The resolution included deleting all the mainwin (mw) tmp directories and files in the root temp directory and also in the
/bobje/enterprise120/aix_rs6000/crpe>
directory. Then we stopped all BOE services and reran the MW script to regenerate registry entries. This repair was a pretty intricate multi-step process. The SAP Technical Rep who worked on this case is writing a knowledge base article (an SAP note). Once I get details, I'll update this post.
The good news about this issue is that the upcoming SP1 of XI 3.0 removes the dependency on the mw registries...
