I have a problem with pie charts in Crystal 2011. I have created a reports that pulls in service tickets for our customers and displays them grouped by how many tickets came in per site. Each customer has hundreds of sites that we differentiate by concept.
I have used suppress to hide all instances of other customers in the detail section expert so we can provide reports to each individual customer. The only problem I face is that when trying to add a chart it also displays all suppressed data. Can anyone guide me in the right direction on only displaying the concept I choose? I tried using the same suppress formula in the section where the chart resides but it removes the entire chart.
Suppression of rows in details doesn't change what is used in the chart.
You have two options:
Option 1: Make a subreport for each chart and use the chart data to make your chart(s)
Option 2: Create a cross-tab where only the column and summarized field is populated. Then under Column, Group Options, change sort to Specified Order. Go to Specified Order tab, and pick your one customer. Under Others tab, choose Discard All Others. Right click on Cross-Tab and Insert Chart. Suppress the report header or footer that has your Cross Tab.

I am not an expert at SSRS but have played around with it to know my basic way around it but I am stuck on this one. This is for Project Server 2010. I am working on a task to create two reports, and combine them at the end. First report, reportA is for a single project, pulling all of it's information. reportB is for a "Portfolio" of the projects on the server.
I am being asked to create a report of them merged. I guess we will call this reportC. reportC will have reportB at the very top, listing all of the projects and other basic information. If reportB has 10 projects listed, 10 reportAs (having information for every single project listed) and all their information, will be aggregated to the bottom of the report.
I tried looking into subreports but do not think this is what I am looking for because it doesn't look as if subreports can be added dynamically, unless I'm wrong. Any ideas on how to easily complete this? I appreciate any help I can get.
EDIT: Here is an example. No it wont be aligned like that. They gave me their example in Excel. It does not necessarily mean that reportC has to be through Excel. Could this be possible running a script of some kind or similar?

I recently did something very similar myself.
What you could do, is in report A, place a table at the bottom where each row is a sub-report (report B). This would allow for all the passed data (name, report id, etc.) to generate visible sub-reports beneath the origin report.
Then, if you want each sub-report on its own page, you can go under group properties and add a page-break after each group.
I am using Crystal Reports 2011. I am totally new to crystal reports and reporting tools in general. I just added my data fields to the details section, but instead of showing all the rows in one page, a new page is created for each row. I did not use any grouping or change the section paging settings.
This only happens for a blank report, when using the report wizard it works fine, but I can't see the difference between what I did and what the report wizard did.
The problem seems to have been a mix up with the sections, I've understood how these work now and got it to work. Thanks for the help.
I had 2 details section, so for every row in details1 it also displayed the information of details2 (which I only wanted to appear once). So I moved the data of details2 into a report footer.
Right click on your report and then go to Section Expert check Is Keep togather is checked
or New Page after or before in not checked.
Make sure that "New Page After" and "New Page Before" are not ticked. Also, Adjust the section sizes to the minimum you need.
In general, it sounds like you have a row data, inserted into the page header/footer section instead of the details section and therefore presented in each page...
I'm using Crystal Reports 2008 and I'm not sure if what the end users want can even be accomplished. And, if it can be accomplished, I'm not sure how to do it.
I have created a report that brings back a list of patients and their doctors. The detail gives patient information. If a patient is complying with doctors' orders, then they are in compliance and if they are not, they're out of compliance. I'm being asked to provide a chart where at a quick glance, a doctor can see how many patients are in compliance and how many patients are out. Then, he wants to be able to click on the chart and be brought down to the detail and be able to see a list of those patients that are out of compliance.
I've managed to create the chart in the report header, but since I want this report to run for all doctors at once and not one at a time, I'm not sure how to make the chart for only one doctoring. I tried adding a group for the doctor, but that isn't working. It is still putting them all together. Next, I can't even find a way to add a hyperlink for them to be able to drill down. I'm sure I've set this up incorrectly, so perhaps I need to start all over.
Any ideas would be fantastic, as I'm truly at a loss on how to set this up.
If you just want to report one doctor at a time, add a selection formula on the doctor's name or ID.
If you want to report all doctors, with a separate graph for each doctor, then add a group for the doctor and move the chart into the group header.
To be able to list all the patients on drilldown, add the relevant fields to the detail section, then hide (don't suppress) the detail section. The user should be able to drill down to the detail section by double-clicking almost anywhere in the Group Header (except the graph, at least in CR10).
If you only want the patients that are out of compliance to be visible in drilldown, then conditionally suppress the detail section where the patients are in compliance.
I am trying to put multiple columns and rows in the details section of my crystal report. I essentially want it to have 3 rows of data per line on the report, and span as many pages as needed to fill that space up.
Right now I am only getting one item per page, and some weird artifact on the next page, resulting in 500 rows of data going across 1000 pages. Weird!
I am using 2 views to feed the report, one for header/footer and then the details. The views are linked by date. The database is refreshed daily and only contains the current days data.
I used to use Crystal ages ago but haven't looked at in 5 or 6 years. I know this may be a bit of noob question to some of the more advanced users, but I need help all the same.

Thanks so much!
To resolve the paging issue - open the section expert and look in each section for page break set before or after. (It sounds as though a page break may be set on the detail section.)
Do you have any Groups in your report? If so, do you have the 'Keep Group Together' option checked. You can check this in the Report > Group Expert > Options... button > Options tab. If you have that checked, try unchecking that and see if it helps. HTH.

I have multiple reports all of which require the same footer (company address, VAT no etc).
Is there a simple way to write this information once and apply it to all of my reports?
I thought I could do this with a simple subreport but this just seems to copy the subreport to the main report and any changes in the 'footer report' aren't reflected in the main report(s).
Thanks Ant
Have you tried the "Re-Import When Opening" option in your subreport properties yet? Once you select that, any changes you make to your "Common Footer Subreport" should be reflected when you open one of your main reports.
(It's grayed out in my pic since I chose a subreport that was native to the main report. It didn't have a .rpt of it's own)
You want it the other way around. Your main report has your common footer, and the unique details sections are subreports of that one.
I don't think it's quite what you're asking for, but you could create a template with that information in the footer, and then apply the template to each of your reports.
