Considering the developing on the market related to Business Object acquisition by SAP it is natural to expect better integration between SAP and
CR.? If you are Business One customer with active annual contract you do not
have to pay extra for CR licenses as you can download your free version licenses
to work with SB1.? Let?s talk about report design on introduction level:
1.?If I need views export then do I have to design report for that?? Probably not as most of the views and internal reports are exportable to Excel directly
from the user interface.? If there is something simple but it is not present in
the interface you can add internal query and it is also exportable to Excel
2.?Crystal Report Wizard or the first steps in design.? It is good idea to start your discovery with Wizard.? It is good tool if what you need to do is to
pull information from just one or maybe two linked tables.? We do not recommend
you to begin complex project in wizard especially where you are not really sure
how many tables do you need to join.? It is difficult to make tables links
changes down the road when the fields from these tables are already on the
design area
3.?SQL Stored Procedures and Views or professional report design.? Here we are talking about such reports as Customer Statement Nike VaporMax Flyknit Soldes , Bill of Lading, Sales Commission based on complex formula and Project Profitability to give you few examples.? The results set should be
tested prior to opening Crystal and beginning the design.? Stored Procedure is
the most powerful way to pull data from the tables as it has the ability to
create temporary tables Nike VaporMax Flyknit Meilleur Prix , build SQL cursors and do other procedural logic comparing to the SQL View where you are restricted to aggregate statements such as Select.?
When you are done with SQL data pulling portion and tested its results you are
sure that your design phase is abstract from data selection and you do not have
to redo design down the road.? If in the future you decide to change something
like commission formula then there is no need to change report itself as you can
alter the formula directly in SQL View or Stored Procedure
4.?Tables and Fields Names.? The simplest way is probably via user interface where you click on View menu and mark show required fields.? Now open the form
with the fields that you need to identify and place cursor over the field.?
Field and table name will be displayed in the information pad in the bottom left
corner of the application window.? Second option to review tables diagram is in
Software Development Kit
5.?Crystal Report import to B1.? Version 8.81 doesn?t require special add-on to call report generation.? It is now done directly in Administration ->
Setup -> General -> Report and Layout Manager where you can import report
and it will be integrated and available in the reporting section of Business One
6.?Dependency to the current version versus the future upgrade.? We would like to say that CR is pretty stable and version independent.? It is much better
to do report versus SDK programming in Visual Studio web project and show data
in .Net Grid.? Software Development Kit project at least should be recompiled
with the introduction of the new version
7.?CR versus Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services.? If you are publishing SAP BO data to the web in something like ecommerce store then SSRS is a good
alternative as it is web based by its architecture and is very friendly to C# or
VB Visual Studio programmer.? Please, note that the design recommendations are
similar here as well and it is recommended to start with SQL View or Stored
Procedure
8.?CR and international alphabets including the ones based on hieroglyphs such as Chinese Nike VaporMax Flyknit Homme , Japanese or Korean.? We should mention that Business One supports Unicode characters and is localized in the majority of the world
regions including China, Brazil Nike VaporMax Flyknit Femme , Europe and Russian Federation.? So it is not a problem to deploy Business One and Crystal combination in multinational business
environment
9.?Is Crystal a great tool for such financial statements as Profit and Loss or Balance Sheet?? Well, theoretically it is possible however General Ledger is
complex structure with such concepts as open and historical years.? This means
that the logic would be probably too complex to replicate it in custom SQL
query.? Feel free to use integrated financial statements directly in user
interface or use industry consolidated reporting tools in the case when you are
consolidating SAP B1 automated branch to your headquarter BS or P&L via
something like FRx or Microsoft Management Reporter
10.?Second Opinion.? We?ve seen numerous situations when design budget was eaten up but the results were not satisfying including such annoying things as
row duplications and incorrect summaries.? General recommendation to the way out
is to redeploy report on SQL Stored Procedure or View instead of trying to link
tables and program numerous formulas and sub-reports. Another observation is
that such issues are typically related to learning curve of the designer and
software developer.? We do provide second opinion and recovery services
11.?Business One Technical Consulting.? This is small business ERP application and possible consulting firm is CPA services with somebody who is
trained and certified in B1.? Functional consultant might be categories as
having general computer proficiency but this guy is unlikely a programmer.?
Technical consulting including Crystal Reports design with SQL Server coding and
SDK programming requires dedicati . Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale NHL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys Free Shipping
