Where/How to get the Virtual KPIs in Crystal Reports?

hellooo!
We are developing SSM7 reports using Crystal.
And we have this example scenario:
1. Two NONKPI variables defined via Cube Builder:
    NONKPI381_ACT/TAR Net Sales         100000
    NONKPI382_ACT/TAR Expenses          80000
2. Virtual KPI
    KPI380_ACT/TAR (Net Income Contribution) = (NONKPI381_ACT/TAR - NONKPI382_ACT/TAR)
No issue in PAS and standard front-end reports as they show the KPI380 = 20000 (and other calculations) perfectly.
However, we need a specific report showing an Objective and it's associated KPIs (e.g. KPI380*) and Initiatives. Apparently, the main FACT table CPMS_EA_DATA does not contain values for KPI380. I browsed all the CPMS tables but to no avail, I have not seen any relationships to at least calculate KPI380. Could somebody please give me some advise?
Cheers and Thanks,
Ron Almonte

Hi there!
If you are trying to read data directly from CPMS tables, then you won't find any measure data there. That data is stored in the Application Server... The CPMS_EA_DATA values there are only used as a datasource for the application server, those values are not used directly for the scorecard calculations.
I would advise you to consider the upgrade to version 7.5. With this version you are able to use either Web Services or ODBO to connect SAP BusinessObjects Strategy Management to other SAP BusinessObjects tools.
This way you will be able to easily access, for example, the details on the 'Context', 'Perspective', 'Objective', 'KPI' and 'Initiative', and to the respective measures 'Trend Status value', 'Status Value', 'Actual', 'Target' and 'Score'. You are also able to access more detailed information on the PAS model for any measure, so that you can build your reports on Web or CrystalI, your Dashboards on Xcelsius, etc, etc...
I have used the ODBO provider (available starting with 7.5 SP2) to create a Universe, and then with QaaWS I was able to make that data available for Crystal, which made it very easy to built a report without any coding
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Ricardo Vieira

How to get the ard file of crystal reports

Hi all,
I have downloaded crystal reports from sap market place but i dont have .ard file for that how to transfer that reports into sap. How to get the ard file please help me out.
Thanks & Regards,
Murtuza Ahmed.

When you click on your SAPCrystalSetup.exe and select the path to your add-on folder it will install the files and your ard file will be situated in your add-on folder. Then you can start SAP up and install it from SAP.
So if your SAP install is in your local drive your ard file for crystal reports should be here C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\AddOns\SAP_CR

How to get the actual data in ALV report

I am doing some upgradation work in that i am using Submit & And return and also i am using some function modules like LIST FROM MEMORY , LIST TO TXT wnd WRITE LIST , it gives output in normal list format , But i need to print in ALV report .

Hi Saravana
I am sure you must be getting the values in tables of table parameters from every FM.
consolidate the values from tables of all FMs in one table and built ALV for that table only.
I hope this way you can show the actual data in ALV.

Where can we get the data for pre calculated reports

Hi,
i want to see the data for pre calculated reports (Reporting agent)
where can we get the data for pre calculated reports
Thanks & Regards,
Shaliny. M

Dear,
This feature of precalculating reports is to enhance the report performance. You will need to schedule this periodically, so that the report is fetched and cached. This allows faster retrieval of report data. Plz. understand that, this scheduling needs to run after every data load in the corresponding cube, so that, the latest data is cached, else the report data will be obsolete.
Thanks

How to view the History of a Crystal Reports iView in EP6?

How to view the History of a Crystal Reports iView in EP6?
Our Crystal reports are viewed via Crystal Enterprise and are both BW and non-BW Crystal reports.
I have looked at the three supplied iViews from Business Objects (alert, folder and thumbnail) but I have only been able to access the last instance or run on demand a CR.
Our users would prefer to see a listing of the past runs of the report and choose which report to view. What parameters need set in the EP6 iView to see the history of a report?

Hi Heather,
it is correct that there is no sample iView that shows the History of Crystal Reports that are stored in Crystal Enterprise but there a sample codes on our web site and there are sample codes as part of the SDK documentation that show how to call the history and you should be able to take the code and create your own Java or ASP iView based on that.

hope this helps

You can achieve this using Customer Exit or BADI. Check the folllowing link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ac/ef1f43daac9a448f0150a02e3a7aba/content.htm
If you are using BADI
You can create Virtual CHAR in BADI using transaction SE19
In this transaction you can create a new or display the existing BADI.
There you can see two tabs
The Attribute Tab we need to give the name of the Multiprovider on which the query with the virtual char is getting executed.
The Inerface Tab has three following sections. Need to write the ABAP code for all the three.
Define : Defind all the characteristics and virtual char that will be used for populating virtual char
Initialize : Initialize them
Compute : Here you will have to write the logic for populating the virtual char.
Once the logic is written then you can use this char in your query .
Hope this helps.

How to get the SR NO in a report

Hi all,
I am new to report and was wondering how I get the
SrNO in a report like below example.
SrNO Name Dept
1 ABC Sales
2 xyz Admin
Should i use CF or CP etc ???
Regards
Sunny

If it is a tabular report, then use rownum in your
query and display it in the report
e.g.
SELECT ROWNUM, EMP.EMPNO, EMP.DEPTNO
FROM EMP
If group report, then use a summary column (count) in
the detail group and reset on master group.
Hope this helps.Thanks a Million.!!!

How to get the Empty page in Webi report

Hi,
I have to insert the charts in the report but i don't have the space to insert the charts in same page so i need one more page how to get the blank page in report
thanks,

turn your report from Page Layout to Draft Mode. Than you will be able to insert chart in it.
You can view Web Intelligence reports in different modes depending on how you want to work with data and how you want the data to appear.
1. In Web Intelligence Interactive, select the report tab of the report you want to view.
2. Click the arrow next to the View button on the main toolbar above the report.
3. Select the viewing mode.
4. In the Java Report Panel or Web Intelligence Rich Client, use Switch Page/Quick Display on the Reporting toolbar to alternate between Page mode and Quick Display mode.

How to disconnect the database connection using crystal report

Post Author: cp_pramodu
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi All,
We have developed an application using .Net and Crystal Reports 10 for generating Adhoc reports from Business system (db sybase 12). We are using the below mentioned script for opening rpt files.
Try
       ReportDocument1.Load(sReportName)
       For Each table In ReportDocument1.Database.Tables
              ' Get the TableLogOnInfo object.
              logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo
              ' Set the server or ODBC data source name, database name,
              ' user ID, and password.
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = sReportServerName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = DBName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = UserName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = Password
              ' Apply the connection information to the table.
             table.ApplyLogOnInfo(logonInfo)
Next
'Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
Me.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = ReportDocument1
'Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
Catch ex As Exception
'Response.Write(ex.Message)
Finally
Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
'ReportDocument1.Close()
'ReportDocument1.Dispose()
End Try
Each time user opens the report a new connection is established to the database, can we disconnect the connection established from crystal reports, while closing crystal report. At the same time i want to setup an Idle time for these connections. In database level, i will not be able to set idle time in database level, as it affect our electronic channels.
Waiting for a reply.
Thanks & Regards,
Pramodu. C. P

Hi,
If you are reworking the application can you not build in the functionality to re-establish a connection if there is a failure? That is, a submission from the application server to the database server detects a failure, etc. and then re-establishes the connection. If you need a more frequent check than during a user-initiated roundtrip, you may be best served by using the "dummy query" technique on some time interval.
From my understanding using HA Event Notification would require a RAC database (plus a multi-threaded application and services correctly configured on the RAC-side).
In the documentation I see this:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14250/oci09adv.htm#sthref1495
"Applications must connect to a RAC instance to enable HA event notification."
In any case, this has the potential to be a bit complicated...

Mark

How to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am new in Crystal Reports and I wonder if it is possible to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports with post-processing that would be applied to the Excel exported file.
By example, is it possible to freeze the window panes, so rows and columns are frozen in place on the screen?
Is there any possibility to obtain the file exported to excel to work with.
Or maybe there is some ways to parametrize the Excel export from Crystal Reports?
Any suggestions are welcomed.

If you are using Crystal Reports 2008 you can use the Report Application SDK that is now available.
It has a object called PrintOutputController that has an export method that allows you to get access to the exported file before you send it to the user.
Check the Developer library and the samples for details.

How to get the customized value of a Report portlet in a page

Hi ,
I have a report portlet and it has a bind variable which users can customize when added to a page. There is a link to a Form page in the report , to which I need to pass the value of bind variable customized by the user. I used :
portal30.wwv_name_value.get_string( l_arg_names, l_arg_values, '<bind variable>');
function, it works ok when we run the report alone .But when we add the report as a portlet in page , it does not return any value. How do I get the customized field value in a page.
null

SAN.
I haven't tested but u can try with the below code...
OATableBean tableBean = ...;
OATableFooterBean tableFooterBean = tableBean.getFooter();
if (tableFooterBean != null)
OATotalRowBean totalRowBean = tableFooterBean.getTotal();
totalRowBean.getValue("Re-Total");
