I'm trying to create a Crystal Report that reads data from an access table. I have a particular field in the access table called REPT_YYMM. This is basically a run data field, so each month when a program is run it populates the current year/month in the field before exporting to access, so there is a way to do month to month comparisons. For the report I'm working on I just want to display the data along with the current REPT_YYMM field when the data is refreshed on a monthly basis. Is there a way to do this in a formula. I'm not familiar enough with date type functions to know where to start.
Any guidance or suggestions are appreciated!
Your question isn't very clear but if i understood correct you just need to filter the data where field REPT_YYMM = YYMM.
Goto selection formulas, record and enter:
{table.REPT_YYMM} = cStr(currentdate,'yyMM');

I need help with creating a trial balance report for a specific tenure, from beginning of fiscal year to a selected period. I need this in Crystal Reports.
I am unable to formulate how can I get debit and credit amounts totalling from beginning of the fiscal year till the end of selected period (not YTD).
For example, I want to get a trial balance report till period 6 (June), I am able to get the balance at the end of period 6, but unable to formulate total credits and total debits for selected number of periods/months. Instead, it is either debit/credit amounts for June or it's for total debit/credits till date.
Can anyone help me please?
Create a formula that returns, for each record, it's dollar amount if it's within the target date range, otherwise, zero.
Sum that formula to get the total for that time period.
I'm a user of the DelmiaWorks/IQMS ERP solution as well. IQMS uses a stored procedure to populate a database table named "C_TRIAL_BALANCE_AS_OF". When you publish a report into IQMS, there is a field named "Execute Before Print" on the Edit Report Definition window that opens when edit a report. To run this stored procedure in conjunction with another report, you will want to choose "POP_C_TRIAL_BALANCE_AS_OF" in the drop-down box control for this field. This will ensure the procedure is run prior to the report so you have the account balances you need as of a specified date. When the report is executed, IQMS will present the user with a Date Picker for the As Of Date. Almost all of the data you need to do a Trial Balance report can be found on this calculated table. The only joins needed should be "V_GLYEAR_PERIODS", "V_GLACCT", and "EPLANT".
There is a built-in report that may do what you want already though. If you begin the Trial Balance module and then click "Reports" > "Print" to bring up the list of all reports, then look for one named "Trial Balance As Of". Even if this report is lacking some information you need, it will likely be much easier to edit this existing report than it would be to create one from scratch.
If you don't have this built-in report, you may be able to get a copy of the RPT file from their support department. As long as you have the Trial Balance module, you should have this report. Its a standard report that is included in every version of IQMS I've worked with. However, my experience is limited to the 15.3 and 2020 versions.
I'm already struggling for days to use dates from excel in a proper way in anylogic..
I've created a database in where the date is formulated as integers in different columns since otherwise excel is messing up the dates (for example year=2021 , month=12 day=5 hour=6 minute=44 second=0 stands for 2021/12/5 6:44:00)
Now I know this can be converted to a date by the function toDate(year, month, day, hour, minutes seconds). But how can I use this integers to create agent with specific parameters from the database in a source and add to a custom population?
The most simple way is to add a column where the function toDate(......) is added in the database but I do not know how to do this (see picture if it is unclear). Or are there other solutions?
One way: use Dynamic Events.
Create one and in the action code, write mySource.inject(1)
In Main, on startup, load all dbase rows and create a DE for each row, below assuming it is only with an hour-column:
(Use the database query wizard to adjust your query).
In your source object, set it to "call of inject() function"
This will work, but it is quite cumbersome, as you can see. Much easier if you get your Excel right and just import the date column clean and well so you can use the Source option "arrival table in database" directly. I know you need regular arrivals, so maybe code that up in Excel to give you these on specific dates...
Tableau will generally show every single date within table output of the date ranges filtered for. Is there a way to only show the first and last date in the table for the date of ranges selected?
I created an image of the desired output in excel. Link below:

Thank you in advance!
The feature that will address your goal is called a Level of Detail (LOD) calculation. They have many uses and take various forms. I suggest reading about the in the online help.
But, to answer your question, the LOD calc to find the first (i.e. minimum) value in a date field called, say, Transaction Date, is;
{ MIN([Transaction Date]) }
The formula for the latest value is left as an exercise for the reader 😊
Please suggest me to get this requirement.
I have a report where I need show data wise sites.Suppose if I click on particular date it should show respected sites.
The date field is coming from different query and sites info is coming from diff query.
Now I need to pass this date field as a parameter to 2nd query.But due to some limitation(nested sub reports) I am not using sub report approach.
I am using drill down concept.
So I have taken both queries in one report only and I written a sub query in 2nd query to get 1st queries date .
Now I am displaying the date parameter in 2nd query as a column.
Now I have date columns in both the queries.
Now what is my doubt is whether I need to link both the queries date fields in links tab(As I need to show sites coming from 2nd query by clicking date field coming from 1st query)
Please suggest .
I am relatively new to using Crystal Reports. I am pulling the correct information from my database however I need to only pull the information from the beginning of the month to the current date, i.e. 09/01/2013 - 09/23/2013. Could anyone give me a snipit of code on how that would look.
Much appreciated.
The best way is you need to filter the data before it is populated on reports i.e. filtering the query itself. The other option is to create new parameter for the selected field and passing the value on runtime.

In below figure you can add the records selection on the required field and add the condition similarly
