Visual studio cross tab report design problem

I have visual studio 2008 and its default crystal reports.
I have created a cross tab report that has a lot of columns and only 3 rows.
So the total number of pages that get printed are 34. (with 12 columns at the top of each page since the xtab is in report header).
My client wants me to utilize the space left at the bottom of the page by having 12 columns at the top and 12 columns at the bottom of the page.
I don't know how this can be achieved.
If the problem is not clear then let me know I'll try to explain more.
I am on a deadline here so please help me.

Hello,
I suggest you also search Forums, there are multiple posting on how to add multiple Xtabs.
This is a public area for all to use and not a case management system. If you are in a hurry I suggest you contact Support after purchasing a support incident and have a dedicated Engineer help you directly. You can get one from this link:

Discover group problem with cross tab report

Hi, I'm working on a cross tab report in discoverer 4i and I'm having a problem with two of the colums. I'm doing a count on one field but because they are called something different they are being shown as two seperate columns rather than 1.
I have one called 101 -AVG and another called 101-AVG. My condition pulls every result back that starts with 101 in the table. So because in the table the values are different it breaks the count into totals for 101 -AVG and 101-AVG.
Is there some way I can group these results together into one field?
thanks,
Ian

Drill down in cross tab report.

Is it possible to have drill down in a cross tab report. e.g. in first view the main groups are the rows and when clicked on the main group the same design but with sub groups as the rows get visible as a drill down.
If it is possible then which version of crystal report supports this and how can I achieve it.
I currently have crystal reports that comes with visual studio 2008.

thanks for the suggestion sjain ... but I've seen ppl here on the forums saying that it doesn't work in cross tab...So I'm not sure if that can be done but I'll try .

How to add an image or static text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report

Post Author: rtutus
CA Forum: General
Hi, I use Crustal 11.0.
I have a cross Tab. I display the items on the left column and the months horizontally, the items are grouped by category field. The values are the sum of quantities are displayed for each month. Like this:
                         Items         Jan       Feb       March .....................Total

The problem, I want to add a page header for each page of the report.
When Crystal reports first displays my cross-tab in the designer, CR displays the cross tab in the Report header section. I d like to add text or image for each page and not only at the begining of my Cross-Tab.
If I just add an image or text at the top of the report designer, which is my report header, I get the image or text only on the begining of the 1st page of my report but never in the other following pages.
If I try to work around the problem and move the cross Tab to a group section instead, and then put the Image in the group header, I get what I want, but the problem is that:
The columns header: Jan, February....December are displayed for each group of my report and not only in the beginning of the report. I get something like this:
                         Items         Jan       Feb       March .....................Total
Category 1

You see the months get duplicated. Any way, my real need is to add an image or text in the header of EACH page of a cross-Tab report.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Divya,
you could do for example in the wdDoInit() of the view
wdContext.currentContextElement().setPicture("picture.gif");
Now you assign this context variable to the Tab using the Tab_header's imageSource-Property. When you click on its value column, you see a button with three dots on it. If you click on this button, you will get all context nodes and attributes for this View. Usable variables are clearly marked, you now choose the one named Picture or what ever name you prefer to use. But it must correspond to the one set in the wdDoInit.
I think setting a picture (not necessarily for the tab-page) is done in one of the excellent tutorials. If you are a newcomer I strongly recommend doing some of the tutorials. I have learned tremendously from them.
Hope this helped

Dynamically color to each column in Cross-tab report

Hello All,
I am a newbie in Crystal report,from last few weeks, i am working on cross tab crystal report.i have a requirement to show color dynamically for each column.i am adding an attachment how i want it. i tried dynamic coloring using object field formula but it is showing red color to all data.i want red color data when in 2nd cross tab report data is beyond upper or lower limit in first cross tab table. it will be very helpful if somebody will give me any clue on this.... i read so many articles now it seem like impossible for me..:(
i am using visual studio 2010 and sap crystal report version 13.0.0.99 for visual studio 2010.

Hello Manish,
I have attached a sample report that does this. You will need to remove the .txt extension from the attached file to open it as an .rpt file.
Please right click on one of the value fields of the first cross tab in the report > Format Field > Common > Suppress if Duplicated conditional formula.
The nested formula is as follows;
numbervar array l;
numbervar array u;
numbervar x:=CurrentColumnIndex;
if GridRowColumnValue ('@limit') = 'lower limit' then
(redim preserve l[x];
l[x]:= tonumber(CurrentFieldValue))
else if GridRowColumnValue ('@limit') = 'upper limit' then
(redim preserve u[x];
u[x]:= tonumber(CurrentFieldValue));
false
So it assigns each lower and upper limit value for each client (in the sample it is country) to an array using the cross tabs column index to index the array and it ends in False as we don't actually want it to suppress if duplicated. This nested formula is just used to generate the arrays of upper and lower values.
In the second cross tab if you again right click on one of the value fields > Format Field > Font > Color you will see the following conditional formula;
numbervar array l;
numbervar array u;
numbervar x;
if not(tonumber(CurrentFieldValue) in l[CurrentColumnIndex] to u[CurrentColumnIndex]) then
crred
else
crblack
So this compaes the current field value to range generated by the 2 arrays and assigns a color based on whether or not it is in the range.

Graham

Cross tab reporting in Crystal 8.5

Post Author: KPetrey
CA Forum: General
I am trying to create a cross tab report for some data that will have varying number of columns.I am running into a problem where some situations are producing 25 or more columns. This results in the crossing over to a second page.My end-users are going to dislike this very much. I am trying to duplicate a report they had with their previous software system and it did not cross pages. All data stayed on one page. My questions are as follows:Is there a way to make the cross tab wrap so that data does not cross to second page?Is there a different way to do what I need other than cross tab?What I am trying to do is list a column for each store that will show the qty of a product that is ordered for it....the number of stores will vary depending on my end-users setup. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

Crosstab is designed to grow wide-wise if the number of columns increases. How can you avoid splitting pages if the number of columns will reach, for example, 50?
You should probably first make a decision, whether your report must be fixed-column or variable-column. If you stick to fix-column, you can design the report to accommodate theoretical maximum of columns, and imitate dynamic columns by using groups, formulas and hiding columns not in use at run time. Pain in the a** with 25+ columns but still doable. Drawback - if actual data will exceed the maximum number of columns, you are out of luck. Or you could stay with crosstab to keep support for variable number of columns, using small font and "Show Cell Margins" option to squeeze as many columns as is actually possible before falling over to the second page. I would prefer the latter if you ask me.

You need to put your title in the page header if you want it to appear on every page. The report header only displays once per report.

Unable to get cells for the columns which have no data in cross-tab report

Hi friends,
I am developing a cross-tab report.
Let's take an example to explain the problem.
Here is the XML file i am using
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- 
- <MODULE1>
- <LIST_G_SCHEMECODE>
- <G_SCHEMECODE>
<SCHEMECODE>171091</SCHEMECODE>
<AMOUNT>0</AMOUNT>
<ASSET_TYPE>Govt Guarantee</ASSET_TYPE>
<MARGIN>0</MARGIN>
<AMOUNT_SECURED>0</AMOUNT_SECURED>
<VALUE_OF_SECURITY>0</VALUE_OF_SECURITY>
</G_SCHEMECODE>
- <G_SCHEMECODE>
<SCHEMECODE>171091</SCHEMECODE>
<AMOUNT>0</AMOUNT>
<ASSET_TYPE>Loans To Govt</ASSET_TYPE>
<MARGIN>0</MARGIN>
<AMOUNT_SECURED>0</AMOUNT_SECURED>
<VALUE_OF_SECURITY>0</VALUE_OF_SECURITY>
</G_SCHEMECODE>
- <G_SCHEMECODE>
<SCHEMECODE>171093</SCHEMECODE>
<AMOUNT>0</AMOUNT>
<ASSET_TYPE>Govt Guarantee</ASSET_TYPE>
<MARGIN>120</MARGIN>
<AMOUNT_SECURED>0</AMOUNT_SECURED>
<VALUE_OF_SECURITY>0</VALUE_OF_SECURITY>
</G_SCHEMECODE>
- <G_SCHEMECODE>
<SCHEMECODE>171093</SCHEMECODE>
<AMOUNT>0</AMOUNT>
<ASSET_TYPE>Loans To Govt</ASSET_TYPE>
<MARGIN>0</MARGIN>
<AMOUNT_SECURED>0</AMOUNT_SECURED>
<VALUE_OF_SECURITY>0</VALUE_OF_SECURITY>
</G_SCHEMECODE>
- <G_SCHEMECODE>
<SCHEMECODE>*171095*</SCHEMECODE>
<AMOUNT>0</AMOUNT>
<ASSET_TYPE>Govt Guarantee</ASSET_TYPE>
<MARGIN>100</MARGIN>
<AMOUNT_SECURED>0</AMOUNT_SECURED>
<VALUE_OF_SECURITY>0</VALUE_OF_SECURITY>
</G_SCHEMECODE>
</LIST_G_SCHEMECODE>
</MODULE1>Now I want SCHEMECODE in rows and ASSET_TYPE in columns.
And the each ASSET_TYPE column is to be divided into 2 sub-columns (MARGIN,AMOUNT_SECURED).
I am able to achevie this.
The problem is that ,for the schemecode 171095, since there is no data for ASSET_TYPE "Loans To Govt",no cells are generated for this SCHEMECODE and ASSET TYPE.
But the requirement is to generate blank cells.
If needed i will send the template at xml files also.

try this, there must be simpler one i guess...
1. take a form field, and make its type as number. Paste the below one <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'v1',2)?>
2. now take a table with as below,
A l B |
C l D1 l D2 l E1 l E2 l
observe that i. A, C are in one column
ii. cell B is on top of D1, D2
iii. we have no cell on top of E1 and E2 cells
iv. 'l' represents the wall of the cell :)
A: <?horizontal-break-table:1?> SCHEMECODE
B: <?for-each-group@column:G_SCHEMECODE;ASSET_TYPE?> <?ASSET_TYPE?> <?end for-each?>
C: <?for-each-group:G_SCHEMECODE;SCHEMECODE?> <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'v1',2)?> <?SCHEMECODE?>
D1: <?for-each-group@cell:current-group();ASSET_TYPE?> <?MARGIN?> <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'v1',xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'v1')-1)?>
D2: <?AMOUNT_SECURED?> <?end for-each?> <?end for-each?>
E1: <?for-each@column:xdoxslt:foreach_number($_XDOCTX,1,xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'v1'),1)?>
E2: <?END FOR-EACH?>
3. If you are confused gimme your email id, i will pass the template. But you should add credits to me.. :)

How to create cross tab reports using RAS SDK api with Crystal Reports XI

Hi Everybody,
Iam generating reports in a web-based application with Crystal Reports XI using Report Application Server(RAS) SDK API. The columns in my report exceed that of an A4 sized page. So, when I export that report to pdf, only those columns that fit to a page are showing up. To solve, this problem, I thought of using cross tab. But, I donot know how to generate cross tab report using RAS SDK API. I have tried to get some code from the internet. But, I did not find any java code for that.Can some one give me some sample code.It is very urgent.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
The easiest way I use is to create the worksheet as regular table and then when i verify the data I get (non aggregate) I duplicate it as a cross tab.
In the duplication wizard I just need to define the axis (using drag and drop).
if you want to create a cross tab from the beginning you need to define that in the new workbook wizard (check the "cross tab" rather then "table"), chose your fields and define the place you want them.
The data point (the center of the cross tab) is aggregated as to your machine definition and will happen automatically.
for example: to find the amount of receipt by months:
On the left put the "Buyer Name", on top put the "Months" and in the data point put the amount.
What you'll get is something like:
months: jan feb mar apr ......
buyer_name
jhon_smith 100 50 30 250 ......
jhon_doe 80 45 90 453 ........
and so on.....

Totals in a cross tab report

I'm working with Crystal Reports XI. We have an existing report that was created using the Cross-tab report type.
There are 3 summary fields in the report:
- direct cost
- indirect cost
- Total ( direct cost + indirect cost)
Everything worked fine until now because both the direct cost and the indirect cost were being rounded to 2 decimal places. However, I have a new requirement to round the indirect cost total to a whole dollar ( no decimal places) before adding it to the direct cost total. This creates a problem for the third summary field because I'm only able to do:
- create a formula field of (direct cost + indirect cost rounded to a whole dollar)
- use that amount in the summary field
The problem is that then the indirect cost is being rounded for EACH record separately. But what I need to to calculate the Total indirect cost first and only after I have that total rounded to a whole dollar, add it to the direct cost total.
So basically, I would like for the third row to simply show the sum of the first row and the second row.
I can't take the current total ( direct cost + indirect cost) and then round this total because the rounding for the total direct cost needs to be done in a different way than the rounding for the indirect cost total.
Is that possible with the cross-tab report type? Is it possible to have 2 running totals in a cross tab report and then have a custom field in the report that rounds each using the appropriate rounding algorithm and then adds the two up.
thanks

Thank you for your suggestions. I kind of suspected that I wouldn't be able to use the current cross tab report to achieve this but since I've never worked with a cross tab report before I wanted to make sure this is the case before investing the time to do it some other way.
I will try using the manual cross tab report as you suggested.
Thanks again.
