Turn Off BOXIR2 InfoView New Crystal Reports Document
How do you turn off the option of creating a new Crystal Reports document in InfoView?
We are only using the Web Intelligence functionality at this time in InfoView and the 'Crystal Report' option in the 'New' menu is causing confusion and curiosity and we want to be able to turn it off.
Any suggestions or documentation I can reference?
Thanks,

Hi John,
The below solution will not turn off the Crystal Report creation option from New tab in InfoView but it will not show the any option related to creation of Crystal Report. This will ensure that user can not create any crystal report from Infoview leading to step away the confusion and curiosity about it.
You can specify the Crystal Reports Explorer features that are available to each user.
Please try out the following.
1) Log on to CMC as as Administrator.
2) Go to BusinessObjects Eneterprise Applications; then click Crystal Report Explorer.
By default, each user is granted full access to all the available features. You can set the availability of each feature for specific users, or for groups.
3) So accordingly select Manage group or Manage Users Tab; and select the user or group whose options you want top modify.
3.1) If you want to set a user's access rights to be the same as for each group to which the user belongs, select Use Group Rights
3.2)If you want to set specific access rights for the user, ensure that you clear Use Group Rights check box, then select or clear features from the hierarchy of available options.
If users belong to more than one group, they will receive the combined access rights for all the groups to which they belong.
Reards,

How to add a field object to group header section in crystal report document?
Hi All, I have got two questions mentioned below, please share your inputs. 1)I want to know whether it is possible to add a field object to header section in crystal report document programmatically? I am using crystal runtime for visual studio. I know that using RAS we can do it, but I want to do it using managed library of crystal runtime. Please suggest. 2) I am doing a POC where I am using RAS (unmanaged library) to manipulated crystal report document. Please see code below: var dbTable = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.DatabaseController.Database.Tables[0]; var dbField = dbTable.DataFields.FindField(item.ColumnName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CrFieldDisplayNameTypeEnum.crFieldDisplayNameName, CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.CeLocale.ceLocaleEnglishUS); CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject fieldObject = new CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.ReportDefModel.FieldObject(); fieldObject.DataSourceName = dbField.Name; fieldObject.FieldValueType = dbField.Type; var groupHeaderArea = _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportDefinition.GroupHeaderArea[0].Sections[i]; _reportDocument.ReportClientDocument.ReportDefController.ReportObjectController.Add(fieldObject, groupHeaderArea); In above code last line throwing exception : "The report field type is not valid." at CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.Controllers.ReportObjectControllerClass.Add(ISCRReportObject ReportObject, Section Section, Int32 nIndex) Thanks, Jai
Hi Jaikumar
As per the SCN Rules of engagement, one question per thread please.
Re. your 1st question. Adding a field to a report is considered to be a report creation APIs (RCAPI). Only the RAS SDK has RCAPIs, so you can not use plain jane crystal APIs. For how to with RAS, see the examples here: NET RAS SDK Samples - Business Intelligence (BusinessObjects) - SCN Wiki
Also, consult the Developer Help Files:
Report Application Server .NET SDK Developer Guide
Report Application Server .NET API Guide
Re. your second question, please create a new discussion.

How to make Crystal Report Document from MS Word document?
Hi
Is it any way to use MS Word document as template for Crystal Report document.
I can Insert document as OLE Object, but I want to disassemble it to Text Objects.
Thanks.You can insert 1 page at a time as background (Insert in page header and elect to Underlay following section).
There is also 1 3rd-party tool that can use formulas from a Crystal report to fill a template MS Word document and save/email to a new MS Word document.
If you explain the actual end-product required by the user, it may be easier to suggest a solution. -
Problem with starting Crystal Report document from SAP Gui
Dear all,
in Crystal Reports I created my first report (based on a BW query), which is executed successfully, when I run it directly from CR or from Infoview. The report is stored directly in BW and has been published successfulyl to BOE.
If I try to run it native from the SAP Gui, the following steps happen:
Internet Explorer is started with the following link:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/ce_url?(ce_protcl):(DS)(ce_server)/(ce_path_pr)/viewreport.csp(Q)bw_id=4I4B2HQG8KK2ICFPONVIG5D9Q&sap_sysid=(sysid)&sap_client=010&language=EN&sap-client=010
this link is transcoded to the following:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/=ce_protcl)%3a//MONHAMBO020.world.mon:8080%2fSAP%2fviewreport.csp(Q&sap_sysid=BWP&sap_client=010&language=EN&sap-client=010&sap-language=EN&cmsname=MONHAMBO020.world.mon
(I already entered /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER handler in the ce_url service)
and afterwards I get an error 404 -> corresponding service not available
which is obvious, as a service =ce_protcl is not existing at alkl.
If I then execute my CR document again from SAPGui (without closing the IE), the standard BOE login page for the infoview is displayed, but I get an error:
Account information not recognized: The credentials passed to secSAPR3 [] are invalid. Use the following format: sid~clnt/user
I can logon with my BW credentials, and afterwards I can see my CR document.
Any idea, what went wrong?
Thanks,
AndreasDear Ingo,
the basic installation of all BOE components was done by the SAP installation service and I checked several times your blog(s) and the corresponding parts on the BOE server and in BW. From my point of view we did all necessary configuration steps on BOE and BW (/CRYSTAL/RPTADMIN) which are necessary to setup the BOE software and the connections.
I checked again the HTTP handler and it still says: /CRYSTAL/CL_BW_HTTP_HANDLER
I stopped and restarted the service, but with no effect at all -> I do not think that I need a restart of the server, right?
My user is as well existing on the BOE server and I can logon to the BOE with my SAP credentials.
I guess as well that the key to the success is the HTTP handler. The first link I provided is the link that is shown in IE, before I logged on to the BW server and I think this is correct, as the transcodification is done after(!) I logged on to the BW server.
A part of the transcodification is as well working, as I can see the replacement of my ce_server, sysid, etc. But it seems to me that the first part of the string is crap:
http://dtcmbbwp01.ctc.ch.rcc:1080/sap/bw/=ce_protcl)%3a
Any further ideas?
Thanks and best regards,

How do I turn off the "locked" setting on my documents
A new feature of OS 10.7 that I never experienced on older versions of OS is that my documents will automatically "lock" themselves if I go for a period of time without using them.
Now, it's not a difficult thing to overcome. A dialogue box lets me "unlock" the documents with one click.
But even one click is annoying. I don't want any of my documents to lock at all, under any circumstances.
How can I instruct my Mac to turn off this feature? I can't find any related setting in the system preferences.
It doesn't even seem to be working as its supposed to. Some of my documents autmatically revert to the "locked" setting just days after I use them.Check the Time Machine prefPane. IIRC, there's an option to select locking files, which has nothing to do with TM.

Database fields empty after creating a new (Crystal) Report in MSY
Hello,
I have some issues to use Crystal Reports in Mobile Sales Maintenance (MSY). The situation is as follows
My example is based on this standard report, which is working
Report Name: BPartnerActivities
Reporting Tool: Crystal Reports
Category: Standard reports
Subcategory: Lists
Report Type: Report
Data Source: Business Content provider
Business Content Provider: BPActivities
My requirement is to build a new report, which is based on the standard "BPartnerActivities" Report. If I use the "copy" functionality, I get an working Copy of the standard report. However, I need to modify the Business Content Provider, but I do not want to make the modifications on the standard content provider "BPActivities".
I am now forced to used the "copy" functionality to create a copy from "BPActivities" for my own Content Provider "My BPActivities copy", which I want to use in a new report.
Issue:
I cannot modify the defined Business Content Provider after using the "copy" functionality and hence forced to create a new report from scratch to be able to set a different Content Provider.
I create my own report "MyBPartnerActivities" based on the standard report "BPartnerActivities" using the same settings and assign my new business content provider.
If I use the "Design Report" or "Modify Report" button, the Crystal Report designer pops up. Now the problem, the Crystal Report designer does not offer me any data below "Database fields".
In the standard report, the "Database fields" has a child element "BOACTIVITY-ttx" with several field options. My own created report from sratch does now have anything?!
Why my report does not offer my any data or is there anything additional to do?
Another Test
I tried to create another report using the standard content provider "BPActivities", but I have still the same issue.
In addition I recongized that the "browse data" fuctionality does not work on the fields in the standard report. The path to the database file does not exist. It starts with "C:\WINNT\...", but my system has "C:\WINDOWS\...". But the executed report is able to retriev the data?!
Unfortunately was not able to find any proper documentation, but I would really appreciate any help.
Regards,
AndreasUpdate
It looks like that the *.ttx file is not uploaded/create to/on the MSY system. The system shows the file in the Crystal Report Designer, but there is no file on the file system. The confusing thing is, that any standard report is still working and does not really complain about a missing ttx file. I think the content of the ttx file is somehow embeded to the report.
Does someone know how the system should behave? Should a ttx file be automatically created & assigned to any new report or do I have to create the file by my own every time?
Cheers,

Unable to open OLAP cube in Infoview for Crystal Report
Hello,
I am currently confused with a crystal report designed via OLAP grid on a BW query and working fine on Crystal designer module on my PC but sending an error when I tried it on INFOVIEW "unable to open OLAP CUBE".
I checked all parameters and database connexions on BO Entreprise CMC : it is OK.
I am on BO XI 3.1 SP 3 entreprise and BW 3.5 or BW 7.0 (both are in concern).
When I tried a simple report on a BW query just drop fields of the query into the report and sending it on Infoview, it is OK.
Just OLAP grid is KO. I do not understand, it is MDX language too ? Somebody can help or faced the same trouble ?
Thanks in advance.
Valérie.Hi
I am facing the same issue when I try to open Crystal report Olap Grid via .net Crystal Report Viewer.
Getting the error message like not able to open OLAP Cube.
Please need urgent solution

I can't turn off Apple's "News" Rule
Can anyone help me turn off Apple's Rule for setting the background color to blue for News from Apple. According to Help, deselecting the checkbox in Mail > Prefs > Rules should turn it off but it doesn't.
Unrelated but it would be helpful to me to know: in Entourage, I am used to having an option for deleting a message from the server, but keeping the message locally. Does Mail have this option anywhere?
ThanksI used the greyscal slider and changed the two Apple News messages to white. The question is, what happens when new Apple News messages come in since the Rule is still in effect. I'm not handy with Rules but couldn't I create a Rule to turn any Apple News message to this color white? Seems ridiculous but in lieu of the fact that I can't turn it off...
By now I've blown my cover as a grumpy curmudgeon so I won't hold back. Another reason I still use Entourage as my default email reader is I can't get Mail to not automatically retrieve my message as soon as I open it. I have it set Prefs>General>Check For New Mail: Manually. Yet every time I open Mail, it hurries up like an overanxious dog an gets all new mail. This screws me up because I already know I have junk mail and now have to delete it a second time. It's like Mail just does not respond to the commands I give it. (I know, I know, whining and grumbling) But seriously, how to turn off automatic News, and automatic checking for new mail?
Thanks

Turn off foreign trade in SD billing documents
Is there a way to turn off foreign trade for the SD billing documents.
Hello,
I believe there is a way to turn off foreign trade based on item category.
SPRO --> Sales and Distribution --> Basic Functions --> foreign trade. I believe in this you have some setting to deactiate foreign trade based on item category.

Can I turn off XHCI on new Mac PRO?
I am interested to get a new Mac Pro. I am a bit disappointed that there are only four USB3 Ports. I know that there are expansion appliances and devices that will provide a few more. here is my issue, which will determine if I am a buyer:
I will need to turn off XHCI, reverting to USB2, and hopefully on a port-by-port basis. Now before anyone jumps up and tries to tell me that XHCI will support USB2, I can tell you for provable certainty that XHCI is not truly backwards compatible with USB2. USB2 is an emulation under XHCI. There are some devices that will not run under such an emulation. One of them is the Microtelecom Perseus SDR Radio. I am a collector and SWL enthusiast of 35+ year duration. SDR (Software Defined Radio) is the newest, and very exciting development in Radio. Few are made with MAC OS compatibility, so I run them in Virtual Machines, under Parallels. This works handsomely on my Mac Pro 1.1. But my Mac Pro is long in the tooth. I would like to replace it with a new Mac Pro. But only if I can turn off XHCI. Also please do not wax on about how the manufacturers of such devices should upgrade to USB3. That is not an option for radios that were made 10 years ago.
There must be a way to do this. Apple must certainly want to market the Mac Pro to the Scientific Community, many of whom have devices which are USB2, and finicky about their connections.
I would prefer to turn off XHCI on a port-by-port basis, or to find an extension/expansion device that is not a simple passthrough of USB.
I asked this question at the Apple Store here in San Francisco today, and no one had an answer, or knew what I was talking about. My question was escalated twice to supposedly more knowable persons, none of whom had any idea what XHCI is.
Anyone here know?No response here in 3 days, so no one knows.
I did manage after a few tries to get an Apple Tech on the phone through the Sales Dep't. He said that there is no way in the Mac OS to disable XHCI settings, and while he recognized that PCs offer control through BIOS, that Apple offers no access to BIOS. He said further that one might discover a way through the Terminal app, but that Apple would not support that if done by a user. So I am NOT going to spend $3500+ on a new computer to have to hack it, and put Support and Warranty in jeopardy. No new Mac Pro for me, no sale for Apple. I may look for a refurb or eBay used Mac Pro 3,1-4,1-5,1, where I can drop in a PCIe USB3 card, and have both for my use, as I wish; nine hardware USB ports sounds good to me. -
InfoView Default Crystal Report Viewer to Java
Anyone know how to do set the Infoview Crystal Report Viewer to Java as default in R3.1 ? We can do it from R2 CMC but not anymore since upgrade.
Our client computer doesn't allow ActiveX download.
Thanks In advance,
TommyHi,
Did you tried by setting in InfoView itself.
After logged in to InfoView, select the Preferences option and choose Crystal report as a reporting type.
Here you can set the default viewer type when CR report is opened.

InfoView and Crystal Reports 11.5
I often create reports against an Access mdb and then transfer them to InfoView by changing the data source. Can I go the other way? I have reports that I created against InfoView views that I want to point to an Access datasource. When I try to Update the view I get an error that says Converting from Business View to non-Business View is not supported
Hi,
Please find below the details of the article I mentioned in my previous post
Symptom
In Crystal Reports XI and later, a datasource connection can be created from database to a Business View. A connection can also be created from a universe to a Business View or a database.
However, if the report is based on a Business View, the datasource can only be set to another Business View.
Cause
The issue has been identified and tracked under ID ADAPT00728401.
NOTE
When a Track ID has been assigned to an issue, this indicates it has been reported to Business Objects for possible inclusion in future hot fixes or file updates. Refer to the list of Track IDs that accompanies a hot fix or file update to verify that a particular issue has been corrected.
Resolution
This behavior is by design. At the time of this article"s publication, there is not an available workaround. -
How to remove logo, refresh, export buttons on InfoView for Crystal Report
Hi Experts.
I uploaded a CR on the infoview.
When I open it on infoview, I'd like to remove SAP logo, export and refresh buttons on the top control panel of Crystal Report Viewer.
I know we can setup Security on this Crystal Report. However, we have thousands reports, I can't setup one by one.
Is there a easy method to achieve this requirement like update default.css or delete logo file.Still need this question answered and then I'll be in Crystal Reports utopia!
So, here's my report from the field so far:
Edited toolbar.js files (every single one I could find) -- nothing changed
Edited web.config files (every one that had appSettings that should have had an effect) -- nothing changed.
So... what's the point of all of these web.config files with code like this:
<!-- "true" or "false" value determining whether a refresh button will be shown. -->
<add key="viewrpt.refresh" value="false"/>
...when changing that value to false has no effect on anything?!?! It appears that everything has been encapsulated into: CrystalDecisions.Web.UrlReporting.ViewRptPage with an httpHander so you basically have no control over anything any more! Am I right about this? Is there any way to override the defaults and remove the buttons you don't want from the viewer?! Help!
Thanks, I'll update if I find a hack or something around this.
