Sub report question

Hi Guru:
I created two BW report from the query, say A and B.
In A, I include B as a sub report.
I could preview in in crystal report 2008.
However, after I include B, I could not use the Save function in SAP menu, it will return an error code 6 says there is error when try to open the report.
But I could use the Save button under the File menu and save it on the enterprise.
Any idea about this?
Thanks.
Eric

Hi,
are you trying to insert a subreport basd on an existing report or a new subreport with the wizard ?
it is correct the SAP toolbar is not there but you should be able to go to the list of data sources and find the entry called SAP BW MDX driver which gives you access to the queries

Sub-report formatting Question

Post Author: matthewh
CA Forum: General
New(ish) to Crystal, running XI and enjoying it.
I have a simple landscape report showing the last 7 days summary of jobs from a database that records our daily production, and it simply reports 12 fields across the page, and has 2 groups - date and job name (for drill-down detail). It also has 6 stats charts. I have a drill-down set up, but is there any way of NOT reporducing the row of original data across the top of the drill-down page so I can display it portrait as a detailed view? I will be adding a number of calculated fields and detailed charts as well, but it looks a bit naff at the moment. I've tried sub-reports, drills-down etc, but it's not right. Am I missing something?

I did wonder about that. Will just have to live with it.
Can I open a sub-report as a completely seperate report with totally different formatting as opposed to a drill-down section? It's just that having a single row of data 5mm from the top of the page is REALLY irritating and I want to put it into the main body of the sub-rpt.

Sub report linking question

Using Crystal Reports 8.5 -
I have report in which the main report shows the customers orders that are ready to ship. In this main report I have a subreport in which it shows customers that are on hold for shipping. How would I go about linking the two reports so that if a customer shows on the subreport then it should not show on the main report. Or I just need to highlight the customer on the main report somehow. Thanks for any feedback on this issue.

How to show all view tab (Main Report and all Sub Report) in Visual FoxPro 9

I use ActiveX from Crystal Report Developer XI for viewer in Visual FoxPro 9 and I already know how to show Main Report by using command:
oRptRun=createobject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
oRptView=thisform.oleRptViewer
oRptOpen=oRptRun.OpenReport('MyReport.rpt')
oRptView.ReportSource=oRptOpen
oRptView.ViewReport
Inside the MyReport.rpt there is two subreport name :
1. MySubReport1
2. MySubReport2
My Question is :
How to show all view tab (Main Report and all Sub Report) at the 1st time we call ViewReport?
I try to using command :
oRptRun=createobject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
oRptView=thisform.oleRptViewer
oRptOpen=oRptRun.OpenReport('MyReport.rpt')
oRptSub=oRptOpen.OpenSubreport("MySubReport1")
oRptSub=oRptOpen.OpenSubreport("MySubReport2")
oRptView.ReportSource=oRptOpen
oRptView.ViewReport
but only show Main Report (view tab name : Preview)?
Did I miss any command before I call oRptView.ViewReport?

Your right, there is only one tab to view the report.
To open the subreports you will need to click on them in the main report. I don't know of a way to open them programmatically like you are doing here

On Demand Sub-Report not working

Hello,
I am using crystal reports xi-r2 I am having trouble getting an on-demand sub-report to work. After much trouble I am able to get the sub-report to work in the designer but as soon as I publish the report and access it from the CRS. It stops working. I can not get the sub-report to come up. Or it opens another window like it is going to show the sub-report but I get the original report again.
My second question is how do I open a trouble ticket now that this has all moved to SAP?
Thanks for your help.
Jeff

As this isn't working in CRS you may want to re-post this to: BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration
www.service.sap.com would be a good place to go to get service

Open an on demand sub report in a new window

Hi There!
While reading the forum threads, there is an thread that have the same issue that i want to find out, but the thread is not yet answered. Could you guys help me. Thanks!
Thread by: Kylie Edwards
Hi I am wondering if it is possible to open an on demand sub report in a new window.
I have a report that has 6 level drill and I want to be able to close the information in the sub report to give the end user the ability to keep drilling.
I have tried inserting a text box with a hyper link back to the main report but hyper links do not seem to work the subreport. "
Thanks and Regards,
Joni

Hi all,
Sorry for the late reply, and thank you guys for the helped. I manage to solve the problem myself
To Falk:
Ya you are right, for what i know, Inforview is not possible to open a subreport from a RPT file in a new windows as well.
To Wallie Cheng :
When i posted the question for help, i just want to know if i could display a crystal report on a new window.
My situation is that i have a page that is size 3in x 3in ( Just a small static graph ) and i wanna attached a A4 report. In order to have a nicer view at inforview ( 3in x 3in border box ), i will need to reduced the size of the crystal report. The size of the main report is now properly change, but it affects the view for the sub report ( As subreport is A4 size, the system display the A4 size document in a serveral 3in x 3in page. -_-"' ).
To Abhishek:
I wanna try out your solution, but i can't find the hyperlink tab in perference option ( in inforview ).
I manage to solved my problem (suitation that i have explain to Wallie Cheng ). That is to created a hyperlink to the report. Rather than a subreport link.
Thanks and Regards,
Joni

Simple Report Question

Post Author: scott123
CA Forum: General
I want to take the information in a simple excel table and recreate it 3 times, each time sorting/grouping on a different columnHere is the tableAnd here is the report that I'm trying to generate (first sorted by name, alphabetically, then grouped by rank, then grouped by size) I'm comfortable working with excel tables in Crystal, but I'm running into a problem repeating the information and then sorting each group separately. I also have no problem doing each group in a single report (without repeating any records), but I'd like to include all 3 groups in a single report. My apologies for how remedial this question is- I thought for sure that Crystal could do this easily but I've spent a couple of days on this and am running into a brick wall.

That's right Scott, and maybe make them "on demand"
sub reports so the user only has to see the data they
really want at the moment. Gives the report a nice clean look too.

Crystal Report Hyperlink to Sub-report or other report

Hi,
I would like to create a report on which the first part will show project summary page. The second part will have all project detail pages and third part with all project financial informations.
The report should work in such a way whenever user clicks on any project at first summary page this has to jump to corresponding detail page of projects.
I have the following question regarding design of this report.
1. Do I need to create a saparate report as a sub report and then merge with main report in a footer section? Or is it ok to create sub-report within main report through sub-report wizard option?
2. How can I establish hyperlink between the pages i.e. summary to detail pages?
3. back hyperlink to first pages.
I am expecting more information about hyperlink options within Crystal report.
Thanks
-Sunil Prasad

Hi Sunil
- For your first question: . Do I need to create a saparate report as a sub report and then merge with main report in a footer section? Or is it ok to create sub-report within main report through sub-report wizard option?
You can create a separate report and then insert it as a subreport in the main report or create it with sub report wizard.
Once you click on Insert -> Subreport, you can see there are two options, one is to point to an existing report and another is to create it through wizard.
- 2. How can I establish hyperlink between the pages i.e. summary to detail pages?
You can use the hyperlink between report objects. Also you can apply a customized formula for this.
Check the below SAP Notes:

Crystal report - sub report

Hi everyone
Can anybody help me with crystal report - sub report problem as i am new to crystal report.
I have created two reports"mainreport" and "subreport" using crysta report XI with the same query for both reports using stored procedure. I set the links for both reports at design time and its works fine there. then i added those two reports into my .net application and now i want to set the paramaters and also want to set the datasource programatically with same query but with two different functions which returns datatable. I am using .visual studio 2008 (.net 3.5) and sql 2005 as back end.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance
Regards,
Shruti Batra

Only CR 2008 (12.x) and CR 10.5 (bundles with .NET 2008) is supported with .NET 2008. And while running reports created in CR XI with CR 10.5 may work, you are taking your chances with parameterized reports as there have been a lot of changes in the parameter behavior between CR 10 and CR XI. Thus, my recommendation would be to upgrade to CR 2008, ensuring your version is 12.3.0.601.
Re. programming questions. Start with sample apps:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
See the [Crystal Reports For Visual Studio 2005 Walkthroughs|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/2081b4d9-6864-2b10-f49d-918baefc7a23&overridelayout=true]. It will apply to CR 2008 and VS 2008.

Multiple page report question

My client would like to run a report by project. A project can have multiple sub-tasks and each sub-task can have additional tasks. Each additional task has 6 sections on the report which all need to be separated by page breaks. The report
need to separated by the additional tasks so in the example below I would have 18 pages of reports, grouped by Sub task and Additional task. How do I group this report to make it work correctly? Would sub-reports work better - still having trouble
with the grouping issue as well on those.
Project
         Sub task 1
                      Additional Task1
                      Additional Task 2
         Sub Task 2
                      Additional Task 1

Hi Dan,
According to your description, we are not clear about the “6 sections for each Additional task”. Do you mean six data records? If so, based on my understanding, there are three groups and eighteen records in your report. You want to make those records appear
on eighteen separated pages, right?
In Reporting Service, we can add a page break to groups within data regions to control the amount of information on each page. In your scenario, you should add page break to group “Sub task”, group “Additional Task” and details. As we tested in our environment,
add page break to these records, the report appears in eighteen pages. Please refer to steps below:
1.On Group Properties of Details1, choose “Between each instance of a group” option on Page Breaks page. Please refer to screenshot below:
Choose same option on Group Properties for group “Month” and “Name”.
2.Click drop-down button next to Column Groups, then choose Advanced Mode.
3.Click on Static under Row Groups, set RepeatOnNewPage as True in Tablix Member Properties.
4.Click Preview, the results before and after adding page break look like below:
If you still have any question, please post some detail information or screenshot about the report design you expect.
Best regards,

How to activate a different sub-report for each row in the data set as main report page breaks on each row of data in the main dataset

I am going to try asking this same question a different way as I have yet to find a working solution to my problem. I have a main report and then 8 sub reports. My main report has one data set and returns one row of data per account number. One
of the fields in the main data set is called AccountProf. My main report displays one page per Account number and then calls a different sub report based on that account's AccountProf value. The sub reports take in the account number as a parameter
and get multiple rows of data to display that accounts usage formatted differntly for each AccountProf (hence the 8 different sub report.
So far I can figure out how to do everything but setting the visibility property of each sub-reports when I have multiple accounts. If I use the following expression for the visibility property on each sub report, it makes all the applicable sub report
for all the accounts requested visible at once:
=IIF(Fields!AccountProf.Value= "USE_PLUS_DMD",False,True)
*The value in bold USE_PLUS_DMD is different for each sub report.
Here is a look at what the main report look like:
Here is the main reports data set:

Hi JasonDWilson77,
According to your description, there is a main report and 8 sub reports in the report, you want to set visibility of sub reports, if no value is passed to the parameter of sub report, the sub report will not be displayed. If that is the case, please refer
to the following steps:
1. Create a new parameter named NewAccountNumber, set its data type the same as @AccountNumber, select Allow multiple values, set Visibility to be hidden, then set all available values to default values.
2. Right-click the first sub report and open Subreport Properties dialog box, click Parameters in left pane, set name to AccountNumber, then click (fx) button, type the expression like below:
=Parameters! NewAccountNumber(0)
3. Click Visibility in left pane, select Show or hide based on an expression, then click (fx) button and type the expression like below:
=IIF(InStr(Join(Parameters! AccountNumber.Value), Parameters!NewAccountNumber.Value(0))>0 , false,true)
4. Modify parameter of other sub reports like step2.
5. Set visibility of other sub reports like step3.

Interactive report with detail sub-report on the same page

Hi all,
I'm fairly new to APEX, sorry if my question is too obvious. I'm using Apex 4.0.2 on top of Oracle 11.2.
I have an interactive report listing the content of a table. Since there are many columns in that table I would the report to show only a few identifying columns and the complete record currently selected being displayed using another report in a separate region on the same page.
The "Link Column" on the interactive report does almost that except that it jumps on another page; I would like to simply have a sub-report updated with the selected data instead of a new page displayed. Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks for your help,
Chris

Chris,
this sounds like what I normally do in my referential data.
I use the wizard to create "form with report"
I make sure that both regions (the form and the report) will be set on the same page number
then I check/change the order of the regions (report first, form second)
then I set the form to display in column 2
regards,
Richard
P.S. the report only shows enough columns to recognize the records. the form shows all records
