User Function Library for Crystal Reports 10 doesn't work on Win2K3 SP2

Hi,
Recently, we have been facing problem with Crystal Reports 10 developer edition on Windows Server 2003 R2 Service Pack2.
The user function library concept doesnu2019t seem to be working on Windows Server 2003. We had installed CR10 Service Pack 6.
We have a UFL written in VB 6.0 and this UFL is used in a formula in one of our reports.
Whenever this report is invoked, the application crashes with a page fault. Dr Watson log files points to a crash occurring in Crystal Reports component.
To reproduce this problem:
1) Create a UFL in VB 6.0
2) Use the UFL in a formula in a report
3) Create a VB 6.0 application and use CR 10 Report Viewer control
4) Invoke the report from the application
5) The application crashes on Windows Server 2003 (SP2).
This is a high priority issue.
Is there any other alternative to User Function Library?
Any help on this will be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Database, user name, password for Crystal report

We're running BOE XI 3.1 and we use WebI reports. One of our departments uses Crystal reports, and they'd like to be able to run them in our BOE environment so that they can refresh reports over the Web. They uploaded a report to BOE (using Add -> Crystal Reports) but when they try to refresh it they aren't prompted for the database or a password, and the refresh fails.
How do you specify the database / data source / data connection (or whatever it's called) for a Crystal report? How do you specify the user name and password to use for authenticating to the database?
Thanks,
Laura

I am fairly new on this forum but we have been doing exactly what you are talking about with Crystal Reports published to BO XI 3.1 for a while. There are a few things we have found that have to be done to make this work right...
- Use the EXACT same ODBC/database connection setup on both the Crystal Report developer's machine and on the BO server
- On the developer's machine use integrated security for the database connection
- Then after you upload the report to BO, go into CMC and open the Crystal Report's properties. In there under "Default Settings" you will see an option for Database Configuration. The User and Password under the "Use original logon informstion from the report" should be empty. Put in a valid userid and password that has access to the database.
- Also, in the Database Configuration screen make sure the Server and Database boxes are filled-in - they will be greyed out and you can't change them (this is why you have to make sure the ODBC/database info is the same). If they are wrong, you will need to fix the ODBC/database connection in the original RPT file.
- Finally, you need to scroll to the bottom of the Database Configuration page and select the radio box "Use same database logon as when report is run" and then Save and Close
Now when users run the report it will use the user and password you entered to do it. The disadvantage is you are not using integrated security but then the users also never get prompted for a password. We tried very hard to get integrated security to work but could not manage it.
Hope this helps!

SSO for MSS Reporting doesn't work

Hello Experts!
I've a litte Problem: When a Portal-User (Manager) wants to call a Report from MSS Reporting, there comes a litte popup where he has to fill in his logon data for the HCM-System (target system).
I have already imported the certificates from Portal into the target system (Transaction strustsso2) as describes in this weblog (Connecting SAP systems to Enterprise portal with SSO.). The portal user and HCM-System user names are indentical, too.
do you have any suggestions?

Hi Matthias,
Let me know which version of MSS and HCM system are you using. I assume that your you are using saplogonticket in the system property.
Few questions:
- Is that appearing for all the screens or applications in MSS business package ?
- Are you using the standard SAP business package or have you customized it ?
- As mentioned in your message, you have imported the certificates but have you added them to ACL and set the value in 2 parameters login/create_sso2_ticket and login/accept_sso2_ticket and restarted the target system (HCM system) ?

Pagination and interactive sort for drilldown report doesn't work fine

Hi Anyone,
I have a drilldown report includes three groups. I add the last group for pagination. But the details in each page doesn't accord to I specified and the detail record number is different in different page.
Another issue is the interactive sort always sort in the first page scope. I set the data region or grouping to the table, and evaluate expression scrope to Detail scope.
Anyone has experience on that?
Thanks a lot

Can you explain your scenario giving screenshot to make us understand how your groups are?

Bapi Function call from Crystal reports 2008. import parameters syntax.

Dear,
I have an issue with calling a function directly from Crystal reports (2008) in the R3 system.
(if this belongs in another thread , please add the link if moved !)
I try to get data through function "BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS".
Till now all possible input parameters have no data-result.
I already read other threads stating that 'for example' the Language key needs to be provided in a single character. 'E' in stead of 'EN'.
I also already created a Z-wrap-function that fills out all input parameters 'hardcoded'. This works.
clearly there are som syntax changes in passing the values to R3 when called from Crystal Reports.
Can someone state which syntax has to be followed for numeric fields, for datefields etc. (so when i make these dynamical, I know which syntax should be the outcome of the formula)
in my function that doesn't work I use these selections:
(this function is called in a standard report only calling this function)
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_ISO} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_INT} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05)
I already tried other languages or the 'EN' as input.
(I would like to know how the date is passed exaclty to R3.)
The function is of course RFC enabled.
when I call the my Z-function with predefined inputparameters in R3 it does give the wanted result.
FUNCTION ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.
""Local Interface:
*" TABLES
*"      OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION STRUCTURE BAPI_OBJECT_VALUES
*"      CLASS_OBJECTS STRUCTURE BAPI_CLASS_OBJECTS
data ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION type TABLE OF BAPI_OBJECT_VALUES.
data ZCLASS_OBJECTS type TABLE OF BAPI_CLASS_OBJECTS WITH HEADER LINE.
ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_KEY = '000000000000000085'.
ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_TYPE = 'MARA'.
Append ZCLASS_OBJECTS.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS'
EXPORTING
    CLASSTYPE                    = '001'

    OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION        = ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION
    CLASS_OBJECTS                = ZCLASS_OBJECTS
OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[] = ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[].
ENDFUNCTION.
please advise.
once again if this should be moved to another forum , add the link please!

Dear,
I just debugged my Z-function, after adding all input parameters as in the standard BAPI function.
All parameters seems to be passed correctly except from the table parameters from
CLASS_OBJECTS
So all I_parameters are passed :
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_INT} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_ISO} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05) and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CHARACTS_OF_CLASS_ONLY.BAPIFLAG} = ""
but the table parameters aren't coming through:
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
these are 'blanco' in the function.
also after the function is executed and all data is retrieved, when passing the data back to Crystal reports, once again, the table result isn't passed to Crystal Reports.
please advise

How do I install UFL for Crystal Report XI for use on BOE InfoView XI 3.1?

I have a Crystal XI Report that uses a UFL that was created by someone else. The library works just fine on my machine but I need to put this report out in BOE InfoView XI 3.1 for users. The library is Java Class.
I have tried to put the library onto the BOE server but the folder structure, etc. is different on the BOE server.
Could use some help on this.
Thanks in advance.

I have a license for Crystal XI on my desktop and that is all.
We have licensing for BOE Repository to store and execute Crystal Reports. When I run a published Crystal Report the view panel in InfoView displays Crystal Report 2008 logo.
Crystal Reports with UFL work on my machine because I can follow the documentation for Crystal Java UFL's (which is the same as the note you referenced), but that documentation is useless for BOE InfoView because Crystal Reports on the BOE InfoView server is entirely different.

SAP Integration Kit for Crystal Reports

Hello,
I read Ingo Hilgefort's blog on BusinessObjects and SAP Part 2.
/people/ingo.hilgefort/blog/2008/02/19/businessobjects-and-sap-part-2
Does the current trial version of crystal reports available from businessobjects.com have this integration kit embedded in it?
If not, where can i find it?
Regards,
Suraj

hi shenoy,
SAP Integration Kit
The SAP integration kit includes drivers to allow connectivity to both R3 and Business Warehouse (BW). In addition, it includes a BW toolbar for Crystal Reports, a specific version of InfoView with Role-based links, sample iViews for Enterprise Portal, and an SDK in Java, COM, or .NET.
Reporting off R3 Data
The kit includes two drivers to allow Crystal Reports to connect to the ABAP data dictionary via a remote function call or RFC.
The Open SQL driver allows the user to connect to SAP R3, displaying the field and the short text description of the tables and fields. The developer can then join the tables accordingly, using the database expert, and then select the relevant fields from which to report. This driver displays not only transparent tables, but includes views, pool tables, cluster tables, ABAP data clusters, and ABAP functions. This driver is geared toward a technical person with functional expertise in joining the tables and then creating the report.

This driver displays not only transparent tables, but includes views, pool tables, cluster tables, ABAP data clusters, and ABAP functions. This driver is geared toward a technical person with functional expertise in joining the tables and then creating the report.
Note
In Crystal Reports, you cannot check the SQL generated using the Show SQL Query option from the Database menu. You can check what Open SQL was generated by using SAP transactions.
The InfoSet driver allows the user to connect to an existing InfoSet, as defined by SAP transaction SQ02. Alternatively, you can use an existing ABAP query, as defined by SAP transaction SQ01. The benefit of this driver is that the user does not need to know where the data is stored or how to join the tables. Another advantage is that any prompts defined in the InfoSet become parameters in Crystal Reports.
Note
To test the InfoSet query, run the InfoSet using your SAP GUI and ensure that it is pulling the required data first before testing it in Crystal Reports.
Reporting off BW Data
When reporting off of BW data, the Business Objects' Integration Kit consists of three drivers that are used to pull data.
The BW Query driver enables the user to connect to a BW query. To enable selection of a query with this driver, Crystal Reports has its own toolbar, as shown in Figure 15.3, and the user needs to select the New Report icon from this toolbar. The user then selects the required BW query, and thus displays a listing of fields available in the query. The user can then create the report using any of those fields. Variables defined in the query automatically become Crystal Reports parameters. After the user has finished building the report, the user saves the report using the BW toolbar. This saves the report to BW, and if the user selects the option to do so, automatically publishes the report to Enterprise.
Figure 15.3. Crystal Reports after the SAP integration kit is loaded. Note the SAP menu and BW toolbar.
[View full size image]
Two new drivers have been added to the XI R2 version of the SAP Integration Kit.
The MDX query driver supports using Crystal Reports to report off either a SAP BW query or a BW Cube.
Furthermore, it adds additional functionality by providing support for
A structure in both the row and column of the BW query
Hierarchy node and hierarchy node variables
Free characteristics in a BW query
The Operational Data Store or ODS driver exposes the ODS tables, so that they look much like the tables of any relational database. However, because of the structure of the objects, it considers them to be like a database stored procedure.
Connecting to the ODS objects is not performed with the SAP toolbar described here, but rather by selecting the driver from the Data Explorer as shown in Chapter 1, "Creating and Designing Basic Reports." After the user has finished building the report, the report can be saved back to BW and published to Business Objects Enterprise by selecting the Automatically Publish to Enterprise check box, as shown in Figure 15.4.
Figure 15.4. The additional options after saving a Crystal Report to SAP BW.
Note
This publishing method requires some setup. Please refer to the Installation documentation for further details.
Note
Both the ODS and MDX drivers require SAP transports to be loaded on the SAP BW system. Please refer to the Installation CD in the Transports folder for further details.
Using OLAP or Web Intelligence to Report off BW Data
Included in the SAP Integration Kit are specific drivers to allow OLAP Intelligence and Web Intelligence to report off of SAP BW.
To connect to a BW cube or query using OLAP Intelligence, open the connection browser and select Add. Select SAP Business Information Warehouse and then proceed to fill in the relevant data, as shown in Figure 15.5.
Figure 15.5. The information required to connect to a BW cube or query from OLAP Intelligence.
[View full size image]
After you are connected, select the query or cube and process to build the report, as described in Chapter 19, "Creating OLAP Intelligence Reports."
Web Intelligence is new to XI R2 and requires that a universe be built on a BW Cube or Query. However, to aid in this process, Designer builds the universe for you. To do this, select SAP from the list of connects and fill out the required information, as displayed in Figure 15.6.
Figure 15.6. The information required to connect to a BW cube or query from Web Intelligence.
[View full size image]
Finish the remainder of the wizard and when you click OK, Designer generates the Universe for you. It may be necessary to move some of the objects around to suit your needs, but when you are finished, export to Business Objects Enterprise.
Note
Only the BW query driver does not require the query be released for external access. The Web Intelligence, OLAP Intelligence, and MDX drivers require the user to release the BW query. To release a query, select the query properties in the BW Query Designer and select the Extended Tab and then check Allow External Access to This Query.
Viewing the Reports
Your SAP reports can be viewed either via the SAP integration kit's InfoView or via SAP Enterprise Portal 6. The integration kit provides a number of sample iViews that can be imported by a portal administrator. These include
Folder iView The folders a user has access to are displayed, and from here a user can run her reports.
Alert iView Shows all the alerts that have been triggered by Crystal Reports. The user can then click on the report to view the report. The creation of alerts is defined in Chapter 11, "Using Record Selections and Alerts for Interactive Reporting."
Thumbnail iView This iView displays the Crystal Report as a thumbnail of the report. The user can then click on the thumbnail to run the report.
Note
These are sample iViews. The organization can create its own iViews via the provided SDK.
BusinessObjects InfoView for SAP is a unique version of InfoView designed for integration with SAP BW systems. This integration includes features such as the ability to log on to InfoView using your SAP username and password. Related to authentication is the ability to access your roles and the Crystal Reports saved to these roles. The roles are defined in Enterprise as folders. The user can also schedule reports in the different languages loaded into SAP BW. This creates an instance for each language.

BOBJ 4.0 Upgrade: Impact on Int Kit customizations for crystal reports?

BW Version 7.01
BOBJ version XI 3.1
We would like to upgrade to BOBJ 4.0, could anyone provide input on these questions?
1 - Can we keep BW 7.01, or do we need to look into upgrading to 7.3? We'd prefer to not touch bw now. If we move to bobj 4.0, does BW need to be touched?
2 - We have modified these function modules in BW (i believe they are part of the integration kit in SAP BW) to meet end user requirements for crystal reports; will crystal reports in BOBJ 4.0 still work with these? I believe one of the improvements is that these aren't used anymore for performance reasons???
BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_VARIABLE
BAPI_MDDATASET_CREATE_OBJECT
BAPI_MDDATASET_GET_AXIS_DATA
BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_MEMBERS
BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_MEMBERS
3 - 99% of our reports are crystal, are there any other hurdles or reasons why we should be cautious moving to 4.0? We are looking to roll out explorer, webi, and xcelsius and would rather go ahead and catch up to 4.0...
Thanks,
Matt

Hi,
1. i'd recommend having a seperate BW for BI4 purposes. If anything, it makes management of integration TRANSPORTs much easier, given that you can only have 1 version active..
(yes, although there's no SAP IK Kit, transports are still imported into backend)
2. OLAP BAPI access is still there in BI4.0, namely for the CR 2011 tool with BW MDX Driver , and for Webi documents using the legacy Universe Design Tool OLAP.unv file.
the new OLAP data access driver for SAP in BI4.0 is the BW's BI Consumer Service (BICS API). The function modules for this are generally called: BICS_PROV_GET*
3. No hurdle at all. You can migrate your content as-is without fear of change. that's principally why the CR 2011 client is there for the 4.0 RTC - for adoption and onboarding. That legacy CR client technology is wholy unchanged, apart from .xlsx support and a 'read only' save mode.
the Crystal for Enterprise product is still playing catch up. It hasn't got all (any) of the direct drivers you would expect from crystal, but it can consume the new .unx common semantic layer and the BICS jco driver (neither of which the CR2011 product can)
... as of 4.1 (Q1 2012) the fit-gap in features is answered. i.e. they've all been fwd ported.
i hope this helps

H

Looking for the best web-based replacement tool for Crystal report

Hello everyone,
A few days ago, I installed JDeveloper and went through the tutorials posted on oracle.com and have not known all the feature yet.
In our office we provide end-users with crystal reports against our oracle database, and this fulfills their needs fairly enough but, recently, we received a request from some of remote users to use those crystal reports. So I just wanted to know whether ADF can replace a crystal report if I try to migrate them? A crystal report has rich functions. For example, I use DistinctCount(Param1, Param2) to display the number of distinct param 1s in each param 2.
Any kind of suggestion would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

License for Crystal Report for Visual Studion 2005

Hi All,
I am developing reports for my application using crystal reports for VS 2005. I read on microsoft site (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318102 ) that the free server software supports three active requests to the server. It further says that developer will need to purchase additional licenses to increase scalability. I think that our application would need the additional license. However, i was unable to find a link on business objects site were i can buy the additional license for crystal report for VS 2005. The link takes me to license for Crystal report 2008. It would be great if you can answer my following questions:
- what version of crystal reports do we need to purchase?
- do we need license for each implementation or do we need license for the developers only.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Abdul

Great questions! Let's get at em, one at a time:
How would you define a print job?
- A print job will essentially be consumed any time the print engine (crpe32.dll) needs to do work. So, processing one report = a print job. However, say you have one subreport, now the number of print jobs = 2. Now, say the subreport is in the details section and runs once per record. And you have 100 records. You will be running 1 + 100 print jobs. Paging to another page consumes a print job. Zooming consumes a print job, exporting and printing to a printer consumes a print job. So, depending on the report and the number of users, print jobs may be used up quite quickly. You can increase the print job limit by modifying the PrintJobLimit in the registry. For CR 2008, the reg entry is here:
HKLMsoftware usiness objectssuite 12.0
eport application serverinprocserver
(the above is used irrespective of the SDK (CR, RAS, BOE))
I am not using report viewer to render the report. I use 'ExportToDisk' method to save the report in word or pdf format. Does 'ExportToDisk' make one print job?
- see above. Again, if the report has a subreport, this will consume at least two print jobs.
How much time does a typical print job takes to complete?
- no way to tell in general terms. There are too many variables that will affect this. From how complex the report to database connections to version of runtime
What care shall I take to reduce the print job time?
- Best you can do is ensure that you are destroying the report object once you are done with it (report.close, report.dispose)
Will using Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise increase the number of concurrent print jobs? If yes then by what amount?
- no it will not
To utilize Report Application Server (RAS) or Business Objects Enterprise, do I just need to use a specific SDK or is there some thing more to it?
- You do need to use the RAS assemblies for RAS, BOE assemblies for BOE. More information is below.
Sample RAS apps:
https://boc.sdn.sap.com/samples/84/1194
An article on RAS:

Not able to Access R/3 Tables, Function Modules through Crystal Reports

Hi Gurus,
I am working on Crystal Reports 2008 - V12.2.0, When I am trying to connect SAP R/3 system through the Data connectivity SAP Table,Cluster or FM,
I could see only the very few tables , and cannot see all Tables and not any Info sets or Function Modules,
But, I can access BW system, problem facing only with SAP R/3 system,
Suggest me on this,
Thanks
Siva

Hey here..,,
There is a limitation to show all Tables, Function Modules in Crystal reports for R/3. To see them,
In Options:
You will see Table_Name Like%: Text box, go there and give the starting or ending characters of FM's.
Eg: Z% or %Z
Then Click on Ok.
Now try to connect to R/3 again or Refresh the Connection, it will list out as you opted.
Hope it should help you.
Thank You!!

JRC Deployment Guide for Crystal Reports 2008

I just downloaded a trial version of Crystal Reports 2008 & was testing out the integration of this component into our Java web based application.
I found the "Crystal Reports XI Release 2 - Java Reporting Component Deployment Guide" PDF file, but I was wondering if there was a more recent version of this guide for Crystal Reports 2008. Maybe I'm a bit confused regarding the versions but this guide currently references JARs in a folder under ...\3.5\java\lib. However, when I looked in the same section of Crystal 2008, I noticed it was \4.0\java\lib & the JARs are different.
Is there a new JRC Depolyment Guide for Crystal Reports 2008?...If not, is there any documentation I can use to map between the 3.5 libraries and the 4.0 libraries?
Thanks

Hi,
There is no separate JRC has been launched for the CR 2008.
But SAP has launched the Crystal Reports 4 Eclipse 2.0 in which CR 2008 has been integraqted with backword compatibility.

Dynamic url link for Crystal Reports Enterprise?

Hi all,
We recently upgraded to SBOP 4.0 SP2 and are looking at migrating our existing Crystal Reports from Crystal Reports 2011 to Crystal Reports for Enterprise 4.0.
Up to this point we have been utilizing the BW Publisher and role menus in BW.
Our long term goal is to migrate users from the BW GUI to the BI LaunchPad but this will be a gradual process.
Until we make the final switch to the LaunchPad we need to maintain the links in the role menus. I found the Document Link option for Crystal Reports so I have a URL to point to the report that we can put in the role menu, but the system value is not dynamic. Is there a way to make this dynamic like we can do with web template URLs?
For example, when using a web template URL we can use the <bsp_server> parameter in the URL to determine the SAP system. Is there an equivalent that can be used in the Document Link for the Crystal Report to determine the respective SBOP system?
Thanks.
