I'm trying to convert sql case statement to crystal formula.
The select in sql had this in it:
...
,pf.Status_category AS Category
,CASE WHEN p.degree LIKE '%P%' AND
pf.department_name LIKE 'Occ%' THEN isnull(pf.department2, '') ELSE isnull(pf.department_name, '') END AS Department,
CASE WHEN p.degree LIKE '%P%' AND pf.department_name LIKE 'Occ%' THEN isnull(pf.Section2, '') ELSE isnull(pf.Section_name, '') END AS Section,
CASE WHEN p.degree LIKE '%P%' AND pf.department_name LIKE 'Occ%' THEN isnull(pf.department3, '') ELSE isnull(pf.department2, '') END AS [Department 2],
CASE WHEN p.degree LIKE '%P%' AND pf.department_name LIKE 'Occ%' THEN isnull(pf.Section3, '') ELSE isnull(pf.Section2, '') END AS [Section 2],
pdd.DepartmentName AS DP
,pdv.PrivilegeDetailText AS Privilages
...
FROM dbo.Person_PrivDtl_V AS pdv INNER JOIN
dbo.Person_Privs_Facs_V ON pdv.M_ID = dbo.Person_Privs_Facs_V.Person_Priv_M_ID INNER JOIN
dbo.PrivDefDepartments_PDF AS pdd ON pdd.PDDept_ID = pdv.PDDept_ID INNER JOIN
dbo.Person AS p ON pdv.Person_ID = p.Person_ID INNER JOIN
dbo.Person_Facilities AS pf ON pf.FacCode = dbo.Person_Privs_Facs_V.FacCode AND pdv.Person_ID = pf.Person_ID
When I convert this to crystal, I can't put this in the columns of the report design. So my idea is to use a formula for each column selected. I have this so far for the first formula, but it won't let me save it:
Formula name= Department:
select {Person_Facilities.Department_name}
case is like "Occ%" : {Person_Facilities.Department2}
The error seems to be the like. I looked up crystal like and it seems ok except for they use "is" for the accepted answer, but when I add "is" the error seems to be the "is" when I try to save it.
What is wrong with this formula so I can use like and the case?
Is there a better way to do this? I suppose I can use a view, but my boss doesn't want views cluttering the DB. Is using a formula the way to do this in crystal? The sql also handled null, which I'm not doing, but I'm not sure how to incorporate that at this point. I'm pretty new to crystal and my team doesn't like questions. We have Crystal Reports 2008 and SQL server 2008 R2.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for but try this;
select {Person_Facilities.Department_name}
case "Occ%" : {Person_Facilities.Department2}
default : 'Unknown';
The default is optional.
To use the LIKE operator, it is as follows;
If {Command_Main.Name} LIKE '*Manager*' then Do Something
To handle NULLS in CR, there is an option to do so in the formula editor. See below. Change it from Exception for Nulls to Default Values for Nulls.

I'm trying to use a sub-query in the "FROM" section but later get errors "Relation "Table name" does not exist".
I have tried to copy paste my sub-query which works, but creates really long and ugly code, as what I am sending is just a part of the whole thing which represents the same problem.
SELECT Reporter.rid , Reporter.fname , Reporter.lname
FROM Reporter , report , map , keyword , ( SELECT Reporter.rid
FROM Reporter , report , map ,
keyword
WHERE (Reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword =
keyword.kword AND
keyword.subject <>
'health')
) AS nonH
WHERE (Reporter.rid NOT IN(SELECT * FROM nonH) AND Reporter.rid = report.rid)
I would expect this code to work and present me all Reporters who are not linked to anything but 'health'
Error msg is:
ERROR: relation "nonh" does not exist LINE 7: WHERE (Reporter.rid NOT
IN(SELECT * FROM nonH) AND Reporter....
You can't use a derived table in a subquery like that. You either have to reapeat the query for it:
SELECT reporter.rid,
reporter.fname,
reporter.lname
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword,
(SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health') AS nonh
WHERE reporter.rid NOT IN (SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health')
AND reporter.rid = report.rid);
Or you can use a common table expression:
WITH
nonh
AS
(
SELECT reporter.rid
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword
WHERE reporter.rid = report.rid
AND report.iid = map.iid
AND map.kword = keyword.kword
AND keyword.subject <> 'health'
)
SELECT reporter.rid,
reporter.fname,
reporter.lname
FROM reporter,
report,
map,
keyword,
nonh
WHERE reporter.rid NOT IN (SELECT rid
FROM nonh)
AND reporter.rid = report.rid);
That may fix your immediate problem. But to be honest, you query is quite a mess with all that implicit joins of tables which's columns are never used and hard to follow, let alone guess what you might be after. I recommend you rewrite it using explicit INNER JOIN/CROSS JOIN/... syntax. And question yourself what the cross joins are actually good for and if they're really needed.
there is no table called "nonH". You are creating an "nonH" alias to a subquery in your SELECT clause, but that does not create a persistent object with that name.
I'm working in a bank so I had to adjust the column names and information in the query to fit the external web, so if there're any weird mistakes know it is somewhat fine.
I'm trying to use the CASE clause to display data from a different table, I know this is a workaround but due to certain circumstances I'm obligated to use it, plus it is becoming interesting to figure out if there's an actual solution.
The error I'm receiving for the following query is:
"ERROR [21000] [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2] SQL0811N The result of a scalar
fullselect, SELECT INTO statement, or VALUES INTO statement is more
than one row."
select bank_num, branch_num, account_num, client_id,
CASE
WHEN exists(
select *
from bank.services BS
where ACCS.client_id= BS.sifrur_lakoach
)
THEN (select username from bank.services BS where BS.client_id = ACCS.client_id)
ELSE 'NONE'
END username_new
from bank.accounts accs
where bank_num = 431 and branch_num = 170
EDIT:
AFAIK we're using DB2 v9.7:
DSN11015 - DB21085I Instance "DB2" uses "64" bits and DB2 code release "SQL09075" with
level identifier "08060107".
Informational tokens are "DB2 v9.7.500.702", "s111017", "IP23287", and Fix Pack "5".
Use listagg function to include all results.

I have the following select statement in ABAP:
SELECT munic~mandt VREFER BIS AB ZZELECDATE ZZCERTDATE CONSYEAR ZDIMO ZZONE_M ZZONE_T USAGE_M USAGE_T M2MC M2MT M2RET EXEMPTMCMT EXEMPRET CHARGEMCMT
INTO corresponding fields of table GT_INSTMUNIC_F
FROM ZCI00_INSTMUNIC AS MUNIC
INNER JOIN EVER AS EV on
MUNIC~POD = EV~VREFER(9).
"where EV~BSTATUS = '14' or EV~BSTATUS = '32'.
My problem with the above statement is that does not recognize the substring/offset operation on the 'ON' clause. If i remove the '(9) then
it recognizes the field, otherwise it gives error:
Field ev~refer is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified tables
nor defined by a "DATA" statement. I have also tried doing something similar in the 'Where' clause, receiving a similar error:
LOOP AT gt_instmunic.
clear wa_gt_instmunic_f.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-mandt = gt_instmunic-mandt.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-bis = gt_instmunic-bis.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-ab = gt_instmunic-ab.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-zzelecdate = gt_instmunic-zzelecdate.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-ZZCERTDATE = gt_instmunic-ZZCERTDATE.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-CONSYEAR = gt_instmunic-CONSYEAR.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-ZDIMO = gt_instmunic-ZDIMO.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-ZZONE_M = gt_instmunic-ZZONE_M.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-ZZONE_T = gt_instmunic-ZZONE_T.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-USAGE_M = gt_instmunic-USAGE_M.
wa_gt_instmunic_f-USAGE_T = gt_instmunic-USAGE_T.
temp_pod = gt_instmunic-pod.
SELECT vrefer
FROM ever
INTO wa_gt_instmunic_f-vrefer
WHERE ( vrefer(9) LIKE temp_pod ). " PROBLEM WITH SUBSTRING
"AND ( BSTATUS = '14' OR BSTATUS = '32' ).
ENDSELECT.
WRITE: / sy-dbcnt.
WRITE: / 'wa is: ', wa_gt_instmunic_f.
WRITE: / 'wa-ever is: ', wa_gt_instmunic_f-vrefer.
APPEND wa_gt_instmunic_f TO gt_instmunic_f.
WRITE: / wa_gt_instmunic_f-vrefer.
ENDLOOP.
itab_size = lines( gt_instmunic_f ).
WRITE: / 'Internal table populated with', itab_size, ' lines'.
The basic task i want to implement is to modify a specific field on one table,
pulling values from another. They have a common field ( pod = vrefer(9) ). Thanks in advance for your time.
If you are on a late enough NetWeaver version, it works on 7.51, you can use the OpenSQL function LEFT or SUBSTRING. Your query would look something like:
SELECT munic~mandt VREFER BIS AB ZZELECDATE ZZCERTDATE CONSYEAR ZDIMO ZZONE_M ZZONE_T USAGE_M USAGE_T M2MC M2MT M2RET EXEMPTMCMT EXEMPRET CHARGEMCMT
FROM ZCI00_INSTMUNIC AS MUNIC
INNER JOIN ever AS ev
ON MUNIC~POD EQ LEFT( EV~VREFER, 9 )
INTO corresponding fields of table GT_INSTMUNIC_F.
Note that the INTO clause needs to move to the end of the command as well.
field(9) is a subset operation that is processed by the ABAP environment and can not be translated into a database-level SQL statement (at least not at the moment, but I'd be surprised if it ever will be). Your best bet is either to select the datasets separately and merge them manually (if both are approximately equally large) or pre-select one and use a FAE/IN clause.
They have a common field ( pod = vrefer(9) )
This is a wrong assumption, because they both are not fields, but a field an other thing.
If you really need to do that task through SQL, I'll suggest you to check native SQL sentences like SUBSTRING and check if you can manage to use them within an EXEC_SQL or (better) the CL_SQL* classes.
I'm assuming this is a simple question, but I don't know Crystal Reports very well. I made a SQL Query which uses the declared dates fields of #beginning_date and #ending_date and I want Crystal to prompt for those fields when run. I added the paramter field in crystal and named it the same thing, but I'm unsure how to get them to sync up. My code is below. Thank you in advance.
--/*
DECLARE #beginning_date char(20)
DECLARE #ending_date char(20)
--SELECT #ending_date = '07/31/2016' --23:59:59'
--SELECT #beginning_date = '07/01/2016' --00:00:01'
--*/
SELECT --Sum(CASE when Billing_Ledger.subtype in ('BI','ND') then
--Billing_Ledger.amount ELSE 0 END) as 'Charges'
Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id, billing_ledger.amount
FROM Billing_Ledger
JOIN Patient_Clin_Tran ON
Billing_Ledger.clinical_transaction_no = Patient_Clin_Tran.clinical_transaction_no
JOIN Coverage_Plan ON
Billing_Ledger.coverage_plan_id = Coverage_Plan.coverage_plan_id
and Billing_Ledger.hosp_status_code = Coverage_Plan.hosp_status_code
JOIN Payor ON
Coverage_Plan.payor_id = Payor.payor_id
WHERE ( Coverage_Plan.billing_type <> 'CAP' or Coverage_Plan.billing_type is null )
and Billing_Ledger.accounting_date >= #beginning_date
and Billing_Ledger.accounting_date < dateadd(day, 1, #ending_date)
and Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id = 'NP' and payor.name = 'Mainecare' and (Billing_Ledger.subtype in ('BI','ND'))
--GROUP BY Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id --, Payor.Name, billing_ledger.amount, payor.type
ORDER BY Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id
Firstly you should turn your query into a stored procedure thus:
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[mySPName]
#beginning_date date,
#ending_date date
AS
SELECT Patient_Clin_Tran.Clinic_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.service_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.program_id, Patient_Clin_Tran.protocol_id, billing_ledger.amount
etc.
Now when adding the database connection to your CR report file, after selecting your server and database you will see three options tables, views and stored procedures. Simply select the new procedure from the list. CR will now automtically add the parameters, and will prompt you for values. If you leave the values blank, then at runtime CR will automatically prompt the user for these values.
You will also note that I changed the type of the parameters to date; this is necessary so that CR knows to include a calendar selector in the parameter prompt.
I am new to crystal report. I need add a nest if statement in recrod selection formula
The original one like this
if {?Company}<>0 then {HQCO.HQCo}={?Company} else 1=1 and
if {?Job}<>'zzzzz' then {udJobEmp.Job}={?Job} else 1=1 and
if {?Employee}<>0 then {udJobEmp.Employee}={?Employee} else 1=1
but i need use nest if statement, i try to do something like this but it is not right.
if ({?Company}<>0 then if
({?Job}<>'zzzzz' then if
( {?Employee}<>0 then {udJobEmp.Employee}={?Employee} then {udJobEmp.Job}={?Job} then {HQCO.HQCo}={?Company} else 1=1)else 1=1)else1=1)
thanks
I try and avoid using if's in selection formula. Try something more like:
({?Company}=0 or {HQCO.HQCo}={?Company}) and
({?Job}='zzzzz' or {udJobEmp.Job}={?Job}) and
({?Employee}=0 or {udJobEmp.Employee}={?Employee})
I'm not sure if I got your logic correct, but this is how you would approach this whole thing:
if ({?Company}<>0) AND ({?Job}<>'zzzzz') AND ({?Employee}<>0) THEN
({udJobEmp.Employee}={?Employee}) AND ({HQCO.HQCo}={?Company}) ELSE
1 = 1
Hope this helps,
Chris
