Top N sorting in a Cross Tab object

I am looking for information on how to sort a cross tab object using a Top N filter.

Hi Lee,
In the cross tab report, just insert a chart, with in the data tab when you insert the data base available values then you can observe on change of record values and summary field values.
In the record sort values we can give the sorting with the order level or Top N level.
Let me know if you have any queries.
Thanks,
Naveen.

  • Receiving an 'Error formatting cross-tab object' error when paging through preview

    I have a report with two subreports in the group footer.  One of the subreports contains a cross-tab report.  When I preview the report as a whole, occasionally I get an error formatting cross-tab object and then no more pages of the report are displayed.  If instead I choose to export the report to pdf, Crystal Reports crashes.  Any ideas on what might be causing these problems?

    Actually, you can search for them by entering the KBA number in the search box in the top right  corner of this web page. KBA 1214209 comes up fine. KBA 1212875 does not, but it's not really applicable.
    While we are at the search box, see if a search term like 'crystal cross tab' (or something like that) bring up other KBAs.

  • "Can Grow" property on Cross-Tab object can not be unlock

    I am using Crystal Reports XI.  My report uses a Cross-Tab object via SQL server.  I am having problem making my data column (Field Row) to increase dynamically in height when my data size increases.  Since the "Can Grow" property in the Format Editor is locked, it would not let me set the "Can Grow" to true to enable this function.  How do I unlock the "Can Grow" function so I can set it to true?

    The only other option I can think of would be to build a virtual cross tab, but in many cases, especially when the number of 'column' values is dynamic, this is not possible.

  • Is it possible to copy a Cross-Tab object and Formulars to a new report.

    Afteroon all,
    I have created a Balance Sheet report using quite a few formulars and items. They are listed in a cross-tab object. Everything is working fine except something has happened to the report at some stage and it is causing problems when I deploy my web app (the rpt file will not delete when I undeploy my web app, it gets locked, untill I shutdown tomcat)
    So I want to try create a new rpt file and copy the cross-tab object and all its formulars across.
    So is there a way to copy formulars from one report to another and also is it possible to copy a cross-tab object across.
    Thanks
    Darren
    (PS Unless someone can tell me why my rpt file is being locked by tomcat)

    I am running windows and the rpt file "locks" and I have just noticed the \WEB-INF\lib\derby.jar file also locks. I dont use the derby.jar file at all. (as far as I am aware - I got an oracle connection).
    Maybe I am redeploying incorrectly or not clearing the report correctly.
    What I do is, I copy the WAR file to the webapps folder, Tomcat unpacks the app and I can run my reports no problem, fresh data is displayed if different parameters are used. I then close my browser window and make changes to my report design. I delete the WAR file in the webapps folder and export my project to a war file again - to the webapps, Tomcat then tries to clear the old project folder so that it can deploy the new WAR. it clears out everything except the rpt file and the derby.jar files. And then of course cannot redeploy the WAR file. So I have to stop tomcat and delete the project myself and start Tomcat again.
    Clearly this is not good as I dont want to have to stop and start my Tomcat server everytime I make changes.
    So how should I correctly undeploy a current version of my webapp and then deploy the new changes. Or am I not doing something when I am finished viewing the report.
    Sorry for going off Thread topic.
    I have tried using copies of the report but the same still happens.
    Thanks

    Im busy reading the "CR not releasing the memory " thread, hopefully the answer is in there somewhere

  • How to perform sorting in a Cross-Tab report?

    Hi,
    Please advice, how sorting can be done in Crosstab report.

    Hi Sriram
    Using the group option you can get the ascending or descending sort order however if your requirement is other than that, you can use a specified order as below:
    To create a specified order for the column or row headings in the crosstab complete the following steps:
    1. Right click the cross tab to select it and from the fly out menu select 'Format Cross-tab'.
    2. In the 'Format Cross-tab' dialog box, select the field that you would like to change the order of. In this example, it is{Customer.Country}.
    3. Click the 'Group Options' button from the right side of the 'Format Cross-tab' dialog box.
    4. Select 'Specified Order' from the drop down list box on the 'Common' tab. This takes you to the 'Specified Order' tab.
    5. From the drop down list box on this tab, select the field values in the order you would like them to appear on the cross-tab.
    You can specify the conditions as per your requirement there.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Cross Tab Top N Setting Programmatically

    <p>How can I set the value of N in the Sort Top N in the Group Sort Expert dialog programmatically for a cross tab object?  </p><p>Thanks,</p><p>-Carl</p>

    Do you mean Dynamic Selection for the value 'N'. If yes then create a numeric parameter (enter static values like 5,10,15 whatever you wanted). Goto Report - Group Sort Expert -> Select Top N and in the text box for 'N' Click on X formula editor and just place your Parameter.
    Simple, Hope this exactly what you were looking for... !/modules/tinymce/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-tongue-out.gif|title=Tongue out|height=18|alt=Tongue out|width=18|src=/modules/tinymce/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-tongue-out.gif!

  • Sorting in Cross Tab

    Hi,
    We are using the Cross Tab component in Crystal Report XI and the cross tab have the sorting option as ascending, descending and specific order.
    The Sorting order will come from the query as an parameter, in that case how do we achieve the sort order in Cross Tab or how to use the sort in specific order.
    Please provide the solution or any reference.
    Thanks in advance.

    Right click on crosstab and go to Crosstab Expert and in the columns click on "group options" button and in the options tab select "Use a formula as sort order" and write the condition like this
    if {?Parameter}="Ascending" then
    crAscendingOrder
    else
    crDescendingOrder
    Hope this helps!

  • Cross Tab display problem in viewer.

    Post Author: SamCCO
    CA Forum: .NET
    I am having a problem with the CrystalReportViewer in Visual Studio 2005.  I have a report which contains a cross tab object that has the upper column labels rotated 90 degrees so that the column widths remain small.  When I view the report in the web viewer in VS 2005, the column labels are all horizontal and unreadable because they run into each other across the top of the cross tab.  Why won't the labels render in a 90 degree fashion?
    When you print the document from the viewer it shows the labels at 90 degrees.  Is this a bug in the report viewer?

    Update
    Hi Guys the report is working fine with cross tab . Its giving the above error when ever I click the Drill to link which takes to the another detail report.
    thanks in advance

  • Cross tab column headers display on all pages

    I made a Crystal Report with a cross tab which displays all details. In the cross tab I have 6 columns with details about the data displayed in the last 2 columns. The headers of these columns are only displayed on the first page but not on other pages. How can I add column headers to all pages? Thank you.

    Column headings should be repeated automatically, row headings can be repeated by
    1.right-clicking on the row header
    2. select Row options
    3. .select Repeat Labels on Page break
    or, when I just reviewed it in the help section it says:
    "When you create a Cross-Tab that is wider or longer than the specified page size, the program automatically spans the printing across enough pages to accommodate the size of the Cross-Tab. In the Preview tab, a line will appear at each page break. For ease in reading, column headings will be repeated on subsequent pages. Row headings can also be repeated using the Keep Columns Together option.
    To repeat row labels
    Right-click the blank top-left area of the Cross-Tab and select Cross-Tab Expert from the shortcut menu.
    The Cross-Tab Expert appears.
    Click the Customize Style tab.
    Select the Repeat Row Labels check box, if desired.
    Crystal Reports lets you designate report objects that don't expand horizontally, such as text objects, field objects, OLE objects, charts, maps, lines, boxes, and so on, to be repeated on each additional horizontal page that a Cross-Tab creates. For more information, see Repeating report objects on horizontal pages."

  • Rows limit in Cross Tab

    I receive this message "The numbers of rows or columns exceeds its limit,65535" although it reads more 100,000 records but does not shows
    Can anybody help please.

    Basil

    Hi Basil
    Cross tabs have a limitation on the amount of rows and/or columns that can be displayed within the cross tab object. This limitation is 65,535. 
    To work around this limitation, use grouping within the cross tab to limit the amount of rows/columns displayed.

  • Using sub-report field in cross tab row #2

    I have a sub-report that pulls a product line description that need to be added to row #2 of a cross tab object. I am unable to drag and dropped and it does not appear in the list under the cross tabs expert.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Edmund,
    You cannot add fields from the Subreport to a Crosstab in the Main Report.
    If you're trying to add data for multiple rows, you would need to bring those values as part of the Main report's query.
