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.
/fax= <fax Number>/<domain name)
/fax = 610666666/<arightfax(at)xyz.com>
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.
Regards
Pushparaj.

I was wondering if you had heard or found anything on this Issue we are also trying to perform the same function and I am looking for some way to send several reports to the Right Fax printer or to the system.

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...

How to do Scheduling Crystal Reports?

Hi All,
I request any one of you, to let me know how to schedule Crystal Reports. I am unable to find any option in Crystal Report Designer.
Please list if any step by step procedure on scheduling crystal reports(lets say hourly, or weekly and save the crystal report with data).
And also any idea on how to maintain crystal reports instances?
Thanks in advance !

There are actually a dozen or so tools out there that can schedule Crystal Reports. The two mentioned here are SAP products. For a complete list of third-party scheduling products (ranging from free to several thousand dollars) you can go here:
http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html
There are even a few more at the high end that will be added to that page in the next month or so. I am currently working on a feature comparison for scheduling engines for my March newsletter.

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!

Error while scheduling Crystal Report within CMC with Destination as Email

Hi,
I have added a Crystal Report within the CMC. Before scheduling it, I have specified the Destination as Email and entered the necessary details. After scheduling it, the Report Instance gives a Failure with Error Message as -
destination DLL disabled.CrystalEnterprise.Smtp
How to rectify this?
Thanks,
Amogh

Hi,
go to the CMC and invoke the server list under Servers. Locate the entry for the Crystal Reports Job Server, select it and invoke the context menu using the right mouse button. Select Destination and add Email in the list of the possible delivery options. Configure the connection data for your SMTP server and restart the Crystal Report Job Server.

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?

Scheduling Crystal Reports to produce a PDF

When I schedule a Crystal Reports report in Business Objects XI R2 to produce the report as a PDF the reports fails with the following error.
Object failed to run due to an error while processing on the Job Server.
The report runs successfully when scheduled to produce report in Crystal Reports format.
We can successfully schedule Web Intelligence reports to be produced as PDF

Hello Dave,
I would test if you can export this report to PDF from the CR Designer.
Also, is this problem in BOE only with one report or with all ?
Try to create a new Jobserver within the CCM, stop and disable the current and see if the new works ?

Error Scheduling Crystal Report to save to Unmanaged Disk destination

When trying to schedule a Crystal Report to save to an "Unmanaged Disk" destination using the "Plain Text" format, and using the "Run Now" option, I receive the following error message "Error Message: Invalid export options. D:\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\Data\procSched\OUT-PHOENIX.reportjobserver\~tmp17105a42ccb5ae4.rpt" I have enabled "Unmanaged Disk" capabilities within the ReportJobServer thru the CMC, and I have stopped and started the service. I still receive the error message...Help!

Hi Karla,
do you have any service packs installed on your BOBJ server? Does your destination folder reside on a network drive?

How to hide Database Logon option when scheduling Crystal Report in BOE?

Hi All,
For security reason, we are try to hide the Database Logon option in Crystal Report Schedule page in InfoView.
There is option in CMC which we can configure the default Database logon option so that users do not have to enter the logon everytime they view or schedule the report. However, we are looking to hide this option completely.
Does anyone know if there is a security setting which can hide the option from specific users?
Thanks,
Bobby

Hi Bobby,
As Jorge informed that there is no method available within CMC to hide database logon option when scheduling or viewing a Crystal Report in the Info view. This is very much true.
But as you also mentioned that you don't want your users to enter the database logon credentials evertime they view or schedule a crystal report, there is one setting in CMC which we can do to avoid prompt for database logon credentials.
CMC - Home - Go to that specific crystal report - Click Process tab - Click the sub-tab 'Database' and at the bottom of the page there is an option "Use same database logon as when report is run". Check this option after providing the database credentials and click UPDATE.
Now whenever users try to view or schedule this specifc crystal report they won't be prompted for the database logon credentials.

Venkat

Scheduling Crystal report from BOE

Hi,
I have a Crystal report (based on ECC Function module) which doesn't retrieve data when I schedule it from BOE (infoview).
I have Integration kit installed, and the crystal report works fine when i execute it manually.
I think it is an issue with connectivity/authentication or something. I don't have a service user id created. (to run the Crystal report i use my ECC user id which has authorization to S_RFC etc)
Can you tell me the steps that i need to follow before i am able to run my ECC crystal report from BOE/infoview?
Thanks, Arka

Hi,
the user that is scheduling the report needs to have the same authorization like viewing the report. you can also see the list of detailed authorizations required in the documentation for the SAP Integration Kit in the chapter authorizations.
all product documentation is available on help.sap.com

Scheduling Crystal reports getting required parameters

Hello,
We're implementing Crystal Reports and want to integrate it in our own developed portal (it is in Java), for viewing the reports we will be using OpenDocument. But we're confronted with a problem, we want to give users the ability to schedule reports to inboxes.
And from within OpenDocument we're unable to directly schedule to inboxes. We think we need to develop our own layer for the scheduling. What we want is something similar to the functionality from infoview for scheduling, but slimmed down.
What exactly do we need (libraries,...) to develop this layer but keep the footprint of this layer as small as possible and avoid problems with future upgrades?
Thank you in advance for any hints or solutions.
Guy

Your starting point is to read the thread that is stickied at the top of this forum section that says [read before posting|Read Before Posting - Where to find Business Objects Java SDK Resources;
That thread points you to the documentation for the SDK's which includes which jar files are needed as well as points to sample applications that you can refer to.

Schedule Crystal Reports

There are a range of crystal reports written in version 11.5 . Some access SAP tables, others access Lotus Notes tables via ODBC drivers.
There is a requirement to schedule some reports to run monthly.
Is there a means of scheduling reports? Can the resulting listings be e-mailed to users?

Depends. You have at least two options (Ido may have others related to 3rd party software).
As you mentioned, BOE or BI is an option.
So is SAP Crystal Reports Server (CRS).
The above will depend on the loads you are expecting. Think of CRS as a light version of BOE. As far as sizing, etc.; you're best to talk to sales who can then recommend the best product for your needs. Sales ph: 866-681-3435
