Unable to Access BI InfoSet in Crystal Reports using SAP Info sets driver

Hi,
I am looking to develop a report on top of BI InfoSet in Crystal Reports. However using the the SAP InfoSets driver I am only able to visualize 'Classic InfoSet' and 'SAP Query'. It does not show the option to import the regular InfoSet as a datasource. I am unable to access the InfoSet built by the db join on InfoCubes that is available in SAP BW System.
Can anybody help.
Thanks,
Amogh

Hi all,
i know this discussion is abaout 2 years old, but i faced a similar problem. I try to get access to the regular InfoSets (SQ02) within a direct connection between SAP and Crystal Reports. Which components and tools did i need to get a connection?
look here: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3365060
Thanx for your help!
Best Regards

  • Database Connection error in Crystal Reports using SAP BW system

    Hi,
    While using Crystal Reports in trying to build a report on the SAP Query in SAP/BW System using the MDX driver, I am able to get the structure of the query fields into the report but on the other hand while trying to refresh the report for data I am getting the error message u201C Failed to connect to the databaseu201D . This database  connection error occurs despite the fact that the SAP server authentication details being entered on Refreshing the report is correct.
    What could be the possible reason? Any guess...
    Thanks,
    Amogh

    Hi,
    Yes, I am using the MDX driver. 
    Is there any pre-requisites of importing certain ABAP transports into SAP Server since I haven't done any? Please  recommend.
    Thanks,
    Amogh

  • Creating BO or Crystal reports using SAP - R3 - Possible?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to create Business objects or crystal report with just SAP R3 system (without using SAP BW)?
    Thanks in advance
    Regards,
    Subbu S

    Hi,
    In latest release in BOXI3 we have option BO and SAP integration kit.whilt installing you need to install this integration kit i.e. how we are installing Deski and designer.
    Once you have install this option we can directly use SAP R3 source and we can gentrate reports and we can use SAP R3 source table in to universe desing and we can design universe. Once universe desing done we can use this universe for report creation.

  • Calculating Average Days in Crystal Reports using a Visual FoxPro driver

    Post Author: sher
    CA Forum: Crystal Reports
    I use the following code in a crystal XI report to calculate average days between two dates using the sql server driver.  It worked fine.  I used the same code in a crystal XI program using a visual FoxPro driver.  It does not work.  Can someone help me with code needed to calculate average days using a visual foxpro driver?
    cast ( Avg( DateDiff( DD, CREDENTIALING.APPLICATION_RECEIVED, ENTITYASSIGNMENTS.STATUSASOF )) As int ) AS AvgDaysFromReceipt,
    cast ( Sum( DateDiff( DD,CREDENTIALING.APPLICATION_RECEIVED, ENTITYASSIGNMENTS.STATUSASOF)) As int )  AS TotDaysFromReceipt

    Not sure if this is any simpler but you could save this as a custom function, that way you will have to modify it once a year for the holidays.
    numbervar days;
    datevar date1 := minimum({?My Parameter});
    datevar date2 := maximum({?My Parameter});
    days := DateDiff ("d", date1, date2) -
    DateDiff ("ww", date1, date2, crSaturday) -
    DateDiff ("ww", date1, date2, crSunday);    // this will give you the number of business days
                                                        // (excluding Saturdays and Sundays) for a given date range.
    // then, for each holiday, you can enter lines like this
    if date(2008,01,01) in {?My Parameter} then days := days - 1;
    // The final tally of DAYS should give you the total business days in a date range.
    totext(days,0);
    where {?My Parameter} is the date range.

  • Display structure in crystal report using structure created in BEx.

    I created a structure in BEx query designer and trying to display the structure as a hierarchy in crystal report.
    Iam not able to accomplish it. the crystal report is displaying the structure with no nodes. please help

    Hi,
    in case you created a BEx query with 2 structure - one for keyfigures and one as characteristic structure - then the structure for the characteristics will result in Crystal REports using the BW MDX Driver as a single field and each element of the structure will result in a row of data.

    Hi everyone ,
    We are trying to test Integration of Crystal reports with SAP BW .
    CR developer version installed - 12.0.3.900

    I have 2 issues :
    1) When I try to open SAP Query from CR SAP menu bar , somehow a blank SAP screen opens first and stays as long as I have CR developer open. I would then have to click on CR from the status line to begin using the software.  The blank screen remains the way it is.
    2) I am unable to delete Crystal reports which are saved in SAP BW Browser . I can delete any other BEX workbook in the same folder .
    Am I missing any role authorizations to delete Crystal reports in BW Browser ?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Crystal reports with SAP BI Infocube

    All,
    I need to create a report from the BW Infocube . I have the SAP integration installed and working properly and I am able to create reports from Bex queries, but I am unable to see any Infocubes in the. Do I need to generate the Infocube as an export data source in order to use this as the data source for generating the report in Crystal reports? Any advise....

    Tanu,
       If you want to see your BEX Queries on Crystal reports then there is setting you have do in your Bex Queries. On the Bex query design choose your query properties and on your far right hand side you will see the properties tabs with General, variable Sequence etc. you will also see Tab " Advanced"  choose that tab and select the check box "Allow External Access to this Query". you will be able to see your query on Crystal report .
    Hope it helps,
    Cheers,

  • Creating a crystal report using excel

    I have an excel spreadsheet that I would like to access to create a crystal reports.  But it seems that I have to first save it as an access or other database file.  But this information changes frequently so I it would be more efficient to access the excel file directly.  I tried using the crystal wizard addin in excel, but then when I run the report I get the error message "Server has not yet been opened".  Any other ideas on how to create report of excel data directly?

    Hello Guys ,
    I have something similar problem ,but not exactly.
    our requirement is We are scheduling one crystal report to generate excel and sent to FTP location.This Excel file (in FTP) should be the input of new Crystal Report using ODBC (RDO) connection.
    I am able to create the ODBC connection,but that ODBC connection is not showing me the selected excel sheet in the Crystal Report ODBC Connection.I tried with Remote as well as local drive Excel also.
    I tried on different machine (thought ,it could be Driver specific),but all machines does have same issue.
    Is there any settings or driver upgrades require for CR XI R2 /2008 in order to use ODBC (RDO) for EXCEL FILES.I didnt find any comments /resolution in Google too.
    My steps -
    1) Create a sample Excel file - only few records
    2) Created a System ODBC connection pointing this excel file say "TEST1"
    3) Opened A Blank Crystal Report
    4) Create a New connection
    5) Select ODBC RDO
    6) Create new connection and selected the newly created SYSTEM DSN "TEST1"
    7) check the selected excel is displayed in ODBC RDO connection??
    If it is a Crystal Report issue or ODBC Driver issue ,please let me know if anyone have came across similar issues.
    thanks in advance.

  • Crystal reports using xml at run time??

    Post Author: avnkkishore
    CA Forum: General
    Hi,
    I have very simple requirement.
    I would like to create a crystal
    report using XML. This
    XML file will be decided at run time
    (not at design time).
    Hence i have added a crystal report viewer control to my windows form and did
    not choose any data source (i left it blank currently). Now i am trying to load
    XML file with the following simple code.
                PropertyBag
    crLogOnDetails = new PropertyBag();
    crLogOnDetails["Local XML File"] = @"C:\Hosts.xml";
    crLogOnDetails["Local Schema File"] = @"C:\Hosts.xsd";
    ConnectionInfo conn = new ConnectionInfo();
    conn.Attributes = crLogOnDetails;
                // create
    "Host" table
    CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table tbl;
                tbl = new
    CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table();
                tbl.Name =
    "Host";
    tbl.ConnectionInfo = conn;
    rcDoc.DatabaseController.AddTable(tbl, null);
    I am getting exception exactly at the above line (i.e. when adding table to
    Database Controller) saying "COMException was unhandled" with error code
    0x80004005 Unspecified error.
    Can any one please help me regarding how to resolve this.
    Thanks in advance,

    I am using VB6 as the front end and Microsoft Access to hold the data and Crystal Reports 8.5. I have a staff name parameter that I want the user to select which staff name to print the report.  If there is
    a new staff the name is not in the list of parameters.  How do I add to the parameter list at run time from the staff table?
    Hi,
    I am afraid that these forums don't support VB6, you could refer to this thread:

  • Calling a Crystal Report using the ReportViewerBean

    Hello...I am writing a java application to display a Seagate Crystal report using the ReportViewerBean.

  • Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7

    Hi,
    I have been reading these posts and got bit confused.
    What do I need to integrate Crystal Reports and SAP BW 7 without BOE. My company has SAP NW license and Crystal Reports Enterprise license and plan to use CR for formatted reporting. Do I still need integration kit into SAP BW in order to create crystal reports on BEx queries and save into BW and view through the SAP NW Portal?
    Or am I fine without integration kit?
    many thanks

    Based on the below Ingo's blog in BI expert we would only need the following:
    You must install Crystal Reports Designer on the client
    You must install the client components for the BusinessObjects Integration Kit for SAP Solutions
    You must install an SAP front end with the SAP NetWeaver BI 7.X Add-On and the SAP BW 3.5 Add-On components on the client when using the connectivity on top of SAP NetWeaver BI
    Users need to have the necessary authorizations in the SAP system. For SAP NetWeaver BI, this means that users require the authorizations to view and execute BI queries. There are additional authorizations for SAP ERP access in authorizations class ZSSI that are specific to the connectivity that BusinessObjects provides.
    You must release the BI queries that you want to use with Crystal Reports for external access. You can set this property in the BI Query Designer.
    So, no mention of BOE.
