Specified Grouping Order

Good Morning,
I am using Crystal Reports version 11.5. I am grouping by a character field. When there is a large list of values, and I want to group in a specified order, not all values are showing in the Named Group drop down. Is there a limit to how many groups can be set in specified order? I am only seeing a subset of my values.
Thanks!

Hi -
Unfortunately, the problem is that when I try to set the specified order, the value I am trying to choose is missing. It shows on the report if grouped ascending or descending, but when I try to use specified order, I do not have my complete list of values to choose from. Does that make sense?
For example, I am grouping by a drug category. My list should show
ACE INHIBITORS AND CA CHANNEL BLOCKERS
AGENTS FOR PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA
ANTIHYPERTENSIVE COMBOS
ANTIHYPERTENSIVES - CENTRAL
ARB/CCB
ARB/CCB PLUS DIURETICS
ARB'S
ARB'S AND DIURETICS
Instead, I am only able to choose from
ANTIHYPERTENSIVES - CENTRAL, ARB/CCB PLUS DIURETICS and ARB'S AND DIURETICS
in the drop down for Named groups. I cannot set the specified order when only a subset is showing without changing my SQL code to account for the problem.
Thanks

My contacts are organized in different groups. An iPhone trade show app (Vinexpo) displays exhibitors infos and allows to create new contacts. Is there any way to save a new contact in a specified group instead of the contacts root? Thks in advance

My contacts on my iPhone are organized in different groups. I have downloaded a trade show app which gives infos on the exhibitors of the show. It offers to create new contacts from these info. Is there any way to save these new contacts in a specified group instead of putting them into the contacts root, where they are mixed with all the old ones? By the way, can we create a new contacts group directly from the IPhone, without having to go through the sync process with the PC?
Thanks a lot in advance

Sorry, I forgot to bookmark the thread where the app was mentioned, but searching for "group" or "contacts" should bring a few results in the AppStore.

Specified Sort Order not working correctly in InfoView

Hello All,
We are running Crystal 2008 version 12.2.0.290 with Infoview 12.1.0 and are having a problem with specified sort orders working correctly. In Crystal we are using the 'Chart Expert' to set the specified order of the percent bar chart. It works just fine in Crystal 2008 and shows the stacked bar in the order we would expect. We then save the report to InfoView and run the report on a schedule and it comes back in a completely different order. Not the order we specified in designing the report. Any ideas on what is going on?
Thanks in advance.

We are experiencing a similar issue with the sort order in Infoview. We are using Crystal XI.5.8.26 and Infoview.
The specified sort order works correctly in Crystal but in Infoview it comes back with a different order. Are there any suggestions on resolving this disparity?
Thank you.

We randomly get the "specified Group is in use" error message when using the DIO Buffered Handshake In VI. How do we get rid of this?

We're using the DIO Buffered handshake in VI (PCI 6503 Board) to read TTL pulses from a wavemeter. Sometimes we are able to collect data, but sometimes we get this error message: "specified Group is in use". No matter how long we wait between taking data, we sometimes (yet not always) get this message. We have one group of 2 ports that we're reading. Is there a way we can get rid of this problem?

Hi,
Are you running any example program or your own?
1. This problem happens when you abnormally terminate the program, such as, by clicking on the abort button.
Say first time you run the programd and it runs fine and then abort the program. In that case, the DIO group is not cleared and hence the subsequent runs give the error that you said.
In such case I would suggest you to open the Device Reset.vi which is under Functions Pallete>>Data Acquisition>>Calibration and Configuration>>Device Reset.vi.
On the front panel of the Device Reset.vi, enter the device number of your card and run the Device Reset.vi. If you get an error on the front panel, then run again so the error goes away. Now run you DIO program and it should run fine.
The botto
mline is, dont abort the program. If it has no functionality incorporated to stop it depending on some condition, then incorporate it.
Please do let me know if my suggestion helped.

Crosstab specified sort order

Post Author: Jan_Hauptmann
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi,I am quite new to Crystal Report (XI), especially crosstabs. Currently I am trying to create a crosstabwhere selected customer are shown on the top of the crosstab and all not selected to be counted as 'Other'. This is no problem as long as I have always the same customer I want to show(via Cross-Tab goup option - specified order). But what I would like is to enter the customer via the parameters and than apply it as specifiedsort order and all not mentioned customer from the parameters to be calculated as 'others'. Is there any chance to achieve something like this? Thanks in advanceJan

Error during the group order close

Hi,
I implemented the IS MILLS Solution. During the close period is necessary to close the group order to avoid more good issues or confirmation
Even the group order has the following status: Technically close and close. When I try to close the individual orders the system generate the following message: Is not possible to close the individual order because the group order is not technically close or with the status Deletion Flag. The error message is: MILL_OC-046.
Does any body knows why this error come out or if is necessary to change the status of the group order to Deletiong Flag to close the individual order?
Any help I really appreciate
Regrads,
Isaias

Hi PPIO,
I would like to understand why is necessary to change the status to deletion flag if this status is used when I wanted to deleted the order form the data base during the archiving process.
Is there the only option to close the individual order?
Thanks,

Specifying the order of column in Excel file

How to specify the order of the columns in excel when data is exported from a table to excel.For eg. I have 2 columns in a table i.e. Base Location and Employee Number.When I export this data to the excel file the columns are displayed according to the alphabetical order i.e. Base Location first and then Employee Number. Whereas I want Employee Number column to be displayed first and then the Base Location column.
Can anyone help me on this?

Hi Sowmya,
when you refer to my Excel Export tutorial on SDN: <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/0mQ">Exporting Table Data Using On-Demand Streams - SAP NetWeaver 7.0</a>:
use <b>LinkedHashMap</b> instead of <i>HashMap</i>:
private Map getProductColumnInfos() {
    Map columnInfosMap = new LinkedHashMap();
    columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.QUANTITY, "Quantity");
    columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.ARTICLE, "Article");
    columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.COLOR, "Color");
    columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.PRICE, "Price in EURO");
    columnInfosMap.put(
      IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.TOTAL__PER__ARTICLE,
      "Total Per Article In Euro");
    return columnInfosMap;
This keeps the order of key-displaytext-pairs passed by the client (table component) to the service (excel export component) stable.

Group Order Confirmation Distribution Quantity

Hi I am implementing the IS-MILLS.
During the group order confirmationn proces the systems distributed the quantity of the individual orders.
Sometime the operator make a mistake and is necessary to cancel the confirmation.
The first time the operator does the confirmation the Confirmed Quantity field in the distribution screen is fine. But after the confirmation is cancelled and the confirmation is execute againg this field has the quantity of the first confirmation (thas was cancelled already) plus the quantity of the new one.
Does any one know if is possible to corrected or modified this behaivor in such a way that after the cancelletion the field has cero quantity.
Example: Suppose the group order has two individual order
First time confirmation:
Yield quantity: 1000
Confirmed Quantity: Individual orde 1 = 500
Confirmed Quantity: Individual orde 2 = 500
Distribution Quantity(Yield to Confirm) Individual order 1 = 500
Distribution Quantity (Yield to Confirm) Individual order 2 = 500
Confirmation Cancellation first time: After this the order has 0 yield quantity confirmation.
Confirmation after cancellation:
Yield quantity: 1500 ( quantity corrected)
Confirmed Quantity: Individual orde 1 = 1250 = ( 500 first time + 750 second time)
Confirmed Quantity: Individual orde 2 = 1250
Distribution Quantity(Yield to Confirm) Individual order 1 = 750
Distribution Quantity (Yield to Confirm) Individual order 2 = 750
Any help will be very useful
Thank you
Isaias Morales

This error usually occurs when the quantity at line level does not match with the sum of the distribution of that line. This you can check while selecting that line and then pressing the distribution button on the form.
Thanks & Regards

ACS 4.x LDAP Group Order

Hello there.
A customer of mine is complaining about the LDAP groups order. When he needs to make group mappings to one of the many groups he have in his database, he face problems to find them, because they're not in alphabetical order. Is that a way to get it in this way?
There's a screenshot to illustrate what's going on.

Hi,
The LDAP Group set will populate the groups as defined in the AD.
I don't think it does take the pain to arrange them in an alphabetical order.

Anisha
P.S.: please mark this thread resolved if you think your query is answered.

No, it is an implicit type conversion. Your code says answer > 0, since the answer column is a varchar2 column, Oracle implicitly converts the answer column to a number to compare against the number on the right side of the comparison. Note that if something like 'A' ever becomes a valid answer, then this query will fail with ORA-01722: invalid number.

Obviously "A"."ANSWER" is not a number colmun, problably varchar, so use something like

Of course you can use inequality predicates on a varcahr column. Is the string A greater than the string B?
Based on the explain plan, your statistics might be a little off, not hugely so. The esitmates are at least in the right order of magnitude based on what you have posted so far.

Task Group Order IN DAC

Hi Experts,
I have two task groups, those are assigned to one subject area. Where can i mention the order of taskgroup execution.
Thank you.

As far as I know, we can specify order of tasks and no option to specify order for taskgroups. Might be based on the target tables present the DAC itself handles which taskgroup should execute first and so on. DAC identifies this while we build the execution plan. Someone correct me if i'm wrong.

How can we specify the order of the predicates execution?

I am going to write the following query
select answer, answer_id from surveys s join answers a on s.survey_id = a.survey_seq_id
where question_uid = 206400374 and insertdate = to_date('31/12/2012') and answer > 0;However, when I look at the execution plan, I see that the last predicate (to_number(answer) > 0) has been executed the first. Henceforth, it checks many rows first. Normally, 75 rows belong to 31/12/2012 as you see from the following. Can I specify the execution order?
select count(*) from surveys s join answers a on s.survey_id = a.survey_seq_id
where question_uid = 206400374 and insertdate = to_date('31/12/2012');
COUNT(*)
75If so, how? Because, the type of answer is varchar2 and some of answers contain text characters such as 'Yes' or 'No'. Therefore, before 31/12/2012 some answers contain 'Yes' or 'No'. However in 31/12/2012 all answers are numeric.
Plan hash value: 3217836037
| Id | Operation          | Name    | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time     |

              'syyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'))
   3 - filter("A"."QUESTION_UID"=206400374 AND

select to_number(answer) from surveys s join answers a on s.survey_id = a.survey_seq_id
where question_uid = 206400374 and insertdate = to_date('31/12/2012');

How to group order & AR for the customers under one customer hierarchy

There are serveral customers under one customer hierarchy, we could easily get the group value in COPA (KE30) via
the "customer hierarchy" parameter in the navigation channel. Could we also get the group value towards the incoming sales
order and Account Receivable? Thanks for the suggestion...

How do I change tab group order?

I have 3 tab groups. From tab group 1, when I press ---Ctrl + `---, it goes to tab group 2. From tab group 1, when I press ---Ctrl + Shft + `--- it goes to tab group 3. How do I change the order so that when I press ---Ctrl + `--- from tab group 1 it goes to tab group 3 and when I press ---Ctrl + Shft + `--- from tab group 1 it goes to tab group 2? Basically, I would like to change the order of tab groups that the keyboard shortcut goes through.
Thank you.

Heard about Tab Groups? They organize your tabs, eliminating clutter. Try it http://mzl.la/d21MyY

HTML Import : Is there a way to specify the ordering at time of multi page import?

It appears the ordering may be alphabetical.
Is there a way, maybe by placing a metadata file somewhere, to specify the import order to avoid having to set the order from Folio Producer?
Thanks,
John

I believe you want to use the sidecar.xml feature to accomplish this.
And there's a great online tool for generating the file, too:
