Crystal Report dynamic parameter values do not show up in prompt when report is opened within SAP B1 - crystal-reports

Crystal Report dynamic parameter values do not show up in prompt when report is opened within SAP B1. However, it is working fine when the report is opened in Crystal Report Designer. Please help thanks!

You need to run the report and initiate the parameter from inside Crystal Reports when on B1.
The list you see from outside only shows if you're using a parameter query like #SELECT, etc ...

One explanation is that you originally inserted the subreport into the main report from an existing rpt file.
Right-click the subreport object and select 'Format Subreport'
Go to the 'Subreport' tab and make sure the option to 'Re-import When Opening' is turned off.
Otherwise, the original external .rpt would override your changes to the subreport.

Cannot find parameter field Pm-Command.Name in subreport 12. SAP B1

I created report which has sub report in Crystal Reports 2011 in two different databases, I set Link between main report and its subreport, My report works fine in crystal report design but if I import it in SAP B1 9.2 PL10 I get error message while previewing
Cannot find parameter field Pm-Command.Name in subreport 12.
I tried to do research but there is no answer I got. The parameter which has error is the parameter links subreport and main report.
I tried to change subreport links but error is still same
Below is formula of subreport parameter which causes that error.
{Command.Name} = {?Pm-Command.Name}
Please anyone can help me to solve this issue

Trying to remove exisitng parameters in Crystal Report 10 report by creating new subreport to provide the parameter data

Hello: I am trying to run crystal report 10 report from command line (and I'm new to crystal). The report has two date parameters ?from and ?to. I can query a different database to get the ?from and ?to parameters. So what I'm trying to do is get rid of the external parameters by generating the dates from within the report to replace/populate ?from and ?to.
Can I somehow add a sub-report to query Oracle to get the ?to and ?from dates? This new sub-report would need to run first since the other four reports (3 subs and 1 main report hitting SQL server) all use these date parameters?
Thanks for any help.
To the extent I know, Whether you use sub report of main report if a user needs to enter his own parameters to query the database then you need to create external parameters
Edit------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since you are trying to get the date input from different database... your approach is correct to create a sub report for this.
Make sure to place the sub report first in order from where you are taking the values.
Either use a shared variable or through parameter linking get the date values to main report and pass the values to remaining sub reports through linking option in sub report links.

Open Crystal Report with a parameter

Normally, I use Microsoft report and I can call parameter.
But for Crystal Report 2008 I want to call the report with a parameter to see the data from my bd on the report.
My report is bound to a data set.

Crystal Reports: How do I allow "set to null" when prompting for values to pass to subreports?

I have created a report which links into subreports. I created parameter fields to feed into the parameters of the subreports using subreport links.
If I do not add a subreport link and therefore the subreport is prompting for the value directly it will allow the set to null option. However, if the enter value prompt is being generated from the parameter field I inserted then the set to null option is not displayed.
I have 12 subreports so I can't prompt for the same values 12 times.
I am using Crystal Reports XI designer and not .net
set up formulas with nothing in them (null values) to pass to the subreports
In XI, I've only seen the 'Set to Null' option when the report uses a stored procedure as its data source. Is this the case for your subreport?
Usually, subreports are linked to fields in the main report so that the user isn't prompted repeatedly (once for each time the section that contains the subreport is rendered). If they are linked, the only prompting that will be encountered it that of main report.
Crystal Reports XI parameter fields (created in the UI, not the result of a SP) do not have a 'Set to Null' option. As a result, each parameter will need to have some value.
You may want to have a look at my Crystal Reports: Optional-Multi-Select Parameters posting on how you can add some optional values to your parameters.
