Scheduled report sent twice

Crystal 10.0
This has happened to two of my reports now and I can't see anything wrong. I've loaded the report in the normal way and confirmed its working, then added a schedule to send it automatically to a number of people (individual email addresses entered). The report runs at the designated time, but two copies of the report are sent.
Looking at the history tab the report has two success instances a second apart.
Has anybody encountered this before?

The same thing has happened with us. We are new to Business Objects and we were successful in scheduling reports to e-mail, but in InfoView the reports are sent twice. We thought it was "Keep an instance in the history" checkbox, but that didn't work either.

CRS 2008 Scheduled Report Runs Twice

All,
I have been using CRS 2008 for about 6 months now and have had scheduled reports running since the beginning. Last month I created new schedules for each report and deleted the old schedule. However, although the old schedule no longer shows in the History tab, it appears to still be running. As of right now, I have only one schedule per report, however, each report gets processed and saved out twice. This did not start happening until I created new schedules and deleted the old ones.
Is there something else I have to do (or can do) in order to completely remove the old schedules or fix the new ones if that happens to be the issue?
Thanks,
Tom

Fritz,
Each report (of which there are 9 at this point), is set up in the following manner:
1. Scheduled to run once a day (times staggered by 5 minutes for each starting at 12:15am)
2. 6 are delivered to a folder on the network, 3 are delivered via email
3. All have the same naming structure: InstanceTitle_DateTime.FileExt
4. Each are formated as PDF
Originally, the six that are delievered to a network folder were also delivered via email as well. This issue only started happening after I deleted those email deliveries. Also, the 3 that are still delivered via email and have never been modified after first being set up are now being run twice as well.
After looking in the network folder this morning, it appears that only four of the six were run twice last night, while all six were run twice for the two nights before that.
This is very frustrating since I have already deleted and started from scratch and still have this issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The status of scheduled report in java application ?

Post Author: Jay_Misys
CA Forum: JAVA
My java application is running on application server (websphare / java application server)
I schduled the report published on crystal report server
the java code is like:
BIPlatform bipService = new BIPlatform(new Connection(new URL(servicesURL + "/biplatform")), oSession.getConnectionState());
ResponseHolder rh=bipService.get("path://InfoObjects/"+sCrystal_Reports_Folder + reportName +
"@SI_SCHEDULEINFO,SI_PROCESSINFO" ,oGetOptions);
InfoObjects oInfoObjects = rh.getInfoObjects();
CrystalReport oCrystalReport = (CrystalReport)oInfoObjects.getInfoObject(0);
SchedulingInfo schedulingInfo = oCrystalReport.getSchedulingInfo();
schedulingInfo.setRightNow(Boolean.TRUE);
oCrystalReport.setPluginProcessingInterface(procInfo);
oInfoObjects.setInfoObject(0,oCrystalReport);
bipService.schedule(oInfoObjects);
Pls help me to get the status (running / sucessfully generated/ failed etc...) of scheduled report ?

out = new FileOutputStream(matcher.group(1)+".open" , true);
                      FileChannel ch = out.getChannel();
                                   FileLock lock = ch.lock(0L, Long.MAX_VALUE, false);
                               // Connect print stream to the output stream
                                   p = new PrintStream( out );
                        p.println ("\n" + parms.getProperty( value ) + "\n");
                              p.flush();
                        p.close();
                              lock.release();Ok, I tried implementing locks but I dont know why it is not working...An exception is thrown and nothing is wriiten to the file. I have employed a complete lock on the file so that no other JVM application can use it.
Actually this is a server that grabs data sent from an Iframe and writes it down to a temp file. I open a file input stream, lock it and then use a printwriter strream to write the realyed data to the file. Any inputs as to what is wrong with the code snippet above?????

Scheduling reports

Hi Experts,
I have a few questions on scheduling report runs. Background is that we need to set up some reports to be run daily and be ready when people come to work in the morning, for example daily pick list, etc.
- How do you set up this kind of daily reporting runs?
- Is this possible for "all" (most) reports in SAP?
- Can these reports be saved to a file on a harddrive/server or sent out as a file in an email?
Thank you!

Hi,
Currently, only XL Reporter supports scheduling reports. Crystal Report is planed to add this function in the near future. That is all I can tell.
Thanks,
Gordon

How to e-mail/not e-mail a scheduled report based on records returned

Hi Everyone,
Is there a way that there can be logic performed on a report that has been scheduled and ran before it gets sent via e-mail to the end users? We have scheduled reports that often end up with 0 records returned but users still get the e-mail with the report that contains 0 records. I would like to e-mail the reports only if the records returned is greater than 0.
We are on v3.1 so if there is a solution for 3.1 that would be great. If this capability exists in 4.0, that information would be very helpful as well.
Thank you for your time.
David Hellinger

Apply an event on your report.
First go to Cmc, create an event based for example on a file that should be created in certain route if the query won't return 0 rows.
Then apply this event in your report Schedule option Event.

Scheduled report ( Do not send when no dada found )

Hi
good morning everybody
I have a scheduled report in my work that sends daily cash spends to our managers , it works fine, but also sends with an empty attachment the day that company does not spend ,
I want the scheduled report not to be sent when there is no data,
can i do this ?
thank you soo much

Hi Larry,
Generic paper 8 1/2" by 11" is standard but most printers have different physical printable paper area. Page margins come into play now. For example if you design a report using the generic printer driver and set your printable area margins to zero, now when you select a printer that has a 1/2" margin because it can't physically print to the whole paper size CR will have to adjust the margins and will likely start chopping off field info or in your case we may try to re-align the objects to fit.... It may be also that when you designed the reports the printer driver you were using may have problems which introduced problems in the report layout....
Even if you don't select a printer depending on the version of Crystal we still use either the default printer or Microsoft's Generic Printer driver to format the page. It's either that or the screen driver but that would be impossible to do alone...
In any event using the no printer option can cause more problems than it resolves.
The next issue is with printer drivers, we had multiple escalations to try to "resolve" printer driver problems and 90% of them are due to old legacy and non-unicode compliant drivers.
This is what I mean by producing a list of supported printers that you can test with.
Thanks again
Don

Scheduling Report through InfoView - Destination Email

My question pertains to InfoView in Crystal Report Server 2008. I am trying to set up a scheduled report to run once, and be emailed as a pdf to my own email address. I am using the administrator account and can successfully do this through the CMC, but when I try to schedule the report through InfoView, the destination always reverts back to the Inbox destination rather than the email destination. The job has a successful status, but the destination is always the Inbox.
I am fairly confident my job servers are set up with the proper SMTP information since I am successful when trying this through the CMC and I am setting everything the same through InfoView.
Any ideas?

Hello,
This is Crystal Report Server 2008 and I guess Business Objects Enterprise 3.0.
When scheduling a report through InfoView I do the following:
Recurrence - Now
Format - I choose PDF, although it doesn't really matter for the problem I am having.
Destination - I choose email from the dropdown, there is no checkbox to ignore the defaults. I have to input my own information. I populate the From, To, and Subject boxes. I also choose to have an attachment sent.
I click the Schedule button and I am taken to the History window. The job has a status of Running. I choose refresh and the job completes with a status of Success. However, when I click the status and the Instance Details are shown, the external destination line reads as Inbox and no email is delivered. The report is delivered to the InfoView user's inbox, but not in an email as I selected.
This process works when performed through the CMC, but not through InfoView.

Querying the output of a batch/scheduled report

We haven't move to Discoverer Viewer as of now. One of the questions I have to those who have already implemented it is, can you schedule a batch report in the viewer and then users are able to query the RESULT of it without querying back the database? We have concerns on performance during the day so scheduling reports to run at night would be convenient for us.
thanks for any comments........

In the concurrent program screen, select options . Under Notify the following person, eneter the email address where output needs to be sent.
Other option could be to create a send mail package and call that from after report trigger of report. The email address can be inputed as a parameter. For more information for this visit
http://sureshvaishya.blogspot.com/2008/02/email-through-plsql.html
The third option could be to call the report from a shell script program and after report is completed email the output using mailx functionality.

EWA reports generating Twice

Hi,
In my solution manager EWA reporting generating twice for all systems ( 3 times for few systems) and also scheduled twice (3 times for few system ) for next week.
Request you to help me on this issue.
Thanks for you valuable help and support
Thanks & Regards
Reddy

Hello,
There should be two periodic tasks scheduled in SDCCN on managed ABAP systems.
Service Preparation and Maintenance Package Task. That is all that should be scheduled.
If you see any "refresh session" or "Earlywatch Alert for Solution Manager" sessiosn scheduled as a periodic tasks, they should be removed from the todo tab, as you can get an EWA for each one.
Most often duplicate EWA reports are caused by misconfiguration ij SDCCN on DSWP where indeed more than one EWA is being created due to the setup.
I would best guess you have incorrect SDCCN tasks scheduled as periodic tasks, when they should be driven by the Maintenance Package task as designed.
Check the periodic tasks in SDCN....typically you only should have the Service Preparation and Maintenance Package.
No other tasks should be scheduled as periodic tasks. While thre are other SDCCN tasks that get run when you deliver a service or perform certain analysis, they are not periodic tasks. I
The other exceptions is when the EWA is being processed at SAP and not on Solution Manager, then there would be an EWA tasks sheduled as a periodic task with the RFC destination SDCC_OSS (SAP)

Scheduling Reports from Oracle package

Is it possible to schedule a report from withing a oracle package. I am using 10G

Same report occuring twice in Discoverer Viewer.

Hi,
I am facing a problem in Discoverer Viewer wherein I have the same report which is occuring twice.
The last modified date for both of them is different but other than that the Name, Description and Owner for both are exactly same.
Can anyone please advice me what could be the reason for the same report occuring twice in Viewer.
Regards,
Shruti

Hi Shruti
First of all let's assume you have a public EUL so let's discuss what happens when you have one of these.
If you open your Admin tool and go to Tools | Privileges, look for the PUBLIC user (not role) and look at the privileges. Out of the box that user is a full user of Plus and Desktop with all privileges except Schedule. Because of this ALL users will inherit the public privileges and will become able to save workbooks to the database.
When I am setting up a new environment for a company the first thing I do is reduce the rights on the PUBLIC user so that it becomes a viewer user only. I edit the privileges and grant only the following:
Collect Query Statistics, Item Drill and Drill Out
Next, I create one or more new VIEWER roles called something like SALES_VIEWER, GL_VIEWER and so on. By default these roles will inherit the PUBLIC privileges. I leave this untouched and grant these roles to all of my viewers and report writers, using Tools | Security to control access to the business areas. I do not grant any further privileges to the VIEWER roles.
Next, I create one of more REPORT WRITER roles called something like SALES_WRITER, GL_WRITER and so on. By default these will also inherit the PUBLIC privileges. I now use Tools | Privileges to increase the privileges for these roles so that they have everything except Schedule Workbooks (you cannot assign this to a ROLE because these are stored in the user's schema and a role does not have a schema). Finally, I grant these roles to the users who will become my report writers.
Because I use the VIEWER roles to control access to the business areas and the WRITER roles to control who can edit reports I get total control.
The last step is to remove the ability to Save and Save As from the Viewer tool. You do this in application server control.
Hope this overview of managing a Discoverer environment helps
Best wishes
Michael

Ssrs scheduled report

Hello,
Users are using a report daily which has two parameters:
@Date and @clientName
The users run this report for different month-ends manually...
This report is now scheduled to run on the 10th of every month at 2:00 am. with th efollowing parameters:
The @Date is set for the last day of the previous month.
The @ClientName is always the same. i.e. @client1
The way I have scheduled it is, say today is 21st July 2014, I placed the date 30 june 2014 into the @Date parameter.
Question:
Instead of me typing the date for the @Date parameter, i.e. 31 june 2014, how can the report do this so that it knows what @Date parameter to use when it automatically runs.
If I do not manually change the @Date parameter, then for the following month it still uses 31 june 2014 but I have to manually change the scheduled report and enter 31 july 2014 for the next run and so forth.
Remember that I do not want to change the format of the report because the users run this report too and they use different dates.
Any suggestions please?

Hi arkiboys,
According to your description, you want the report can auto type the last day of the previous month as the @Date value, rather than manually type the date. To fix this issue, we can type the last day of the previous month with expression as the default value
for the @Date. Then it automatically runs with the default date based on the date, without manually modification. For more details, please see:
Edit the report with Report Builder.
Right-click the @Date parameter to open the Report Parameter Properties dialog box.
Click Default Values in the left pane.
Specify a value with the expression below:
=dateadd("d",-day(today),today)
Users can change the date for the @Date parameter to others based on their region when he view the report.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

Error while scheduling report for SAP users

Hi All,
We have SAP authentication enabled in our BO environment. (BO XI 3.1 sp2 FP 2.6 on windows 2003 server).
There are some webi reports based on BW Bex queries that we are trying to run on behalf of certain SAP end users. This we are doing using "schedule for" option.
Now what is happening here is if the end user has logged in once in BO system ,it runs fine. But in case user has not logged in to BO (using infoview etc.) ,it throws error saying "incomplete logon data" . Also if user changes or reset his password in BW and if he doesn't login to infoview after that ,system throws another error "Name or password incorrect (repeat logon)".
Based on these observation, we are suspecting if BO system uses stored SAP users credentials while scheduling report for them based on their last login.
Would like to mention here that we have checked option "automatically import users".
Please advice if this behavior is normal or we are missing some setting.
Thanks in advance,
Chandra

Hi All,
Any pointers or suggestions for this issue ??
Is there a setting/option avialable in CMC which could resolve these errors.
Or, user has to login once to infoview in all circumstances to avoid these errors.
Thanks,
Chandra
