SAP as a Datasource for Crystal Reports
The available SAP data sources for Crystal Reports are: SAP R/3 Tables and cluster (Open SQL). ABAP functions. Classic InfoSets. SAP queries and InfoSet queries.
SAP BW Tables and cluster (Open SQL). ABAP Functions. Direct ODS access (without the need for an SAP BW query). BW queries and BW cubes.
SAP BW Metadata in Crystal Reports

When connecting to a SAP BI query with Crystal Reports the underlying metadata from the SAP BI query is leveraged and matched to Crystal Reports elements. The table below shows how SAP BI metadata is used in Crystal Reports.
BW Query element Characteristic Hierarchy Keyfigure
Crystal Reports designer element Separate fields for key and description per characteristic. Fields representing a parent-child relationship. Measure element in a grouping called Keyfigure. Each Keyfigure can have up to three elements: numeric value, unit, and formatted value. Measure element in the folder Keyfigure. (Information about the details of the calculated keyfigure is not available in Crystal Reports.) Measure element in the folder Keyfigure (Information about the details of the restricted keyfigure is not available in Crystal Reports.) Filters will be applied to the underlying query but are not visible in the Crystal Reports designer. Separate fields for key and description per navigational attribute. Each display attribute becomes one field in the field explorer. The display attributes are grouped together with the actual characteristic. Parameters.
Calculated Keyfigure
Restricted Keyfigure
Filter Navigational attribute Display attribute
SAP variables
Dimension and Characteristics The image shows an SAP BI query in the BEx Query Designer.
The rows of this query include several characteristics and the columns several keyfigures. On the left side, the actual cube structure is shown with the cube dimensions (not to be confused with characteristics).
Building a Crystal Report on top of such an SAP BW query will result in the following elements:
Each characteristic in the query will result in an element in the field explorer with a key and a description item (Example: City Key and City Name). In addition each characteristic will also generate a Node ID and a Parent Node ID which can be used for hierarchical reporting. Each characteristic will also generate a Member Unique Name field which represents the technical key value.
Display attributes and Navigational Attributes Display attributes are InfoObjects which are logically assigned or subordinated to a characteristic. For example: The characteristic customer has two attributes: Phone number Fax number
The following screen shows an SAP BI query in the BEx Query Designer.
The row structure includes a characteristic Customer with four display attributes (Geographical Height, Postal Code, Sector Code, and Area Code).
In addition the BW query contains three navigational attributes in the rows: Regional Code, Postal Code, and Area Code. A navigational attribute can easily be identified by the double underscore (__) in the technical name of the navigational attribute.
Building a Crystal Report object on top of such an SAP BW query will result in the following elements:
Each characteristic in the query will result in an element in the field explorer with a key and a description field. Each navigational attribute in the query will result in an element in the field explorer with a key and a description item (for example, Regional Code and Area Code). Each display attribute will create an element in the field explorer underneath the corresponding characteristic (for example, Customer number with several display attributes). Crystal Reports will include all available display attributes for the characteristic and not only the display attributes that are included in the SAP BW query.
Keyfigures, Units, and Currencies Each keyfigure used in an SAP BW query can have up to three elements: Numeric value of the keyfigure. Unit or currency information. Formatted value, representing the user-specific formatting.
The image shows the result of two keyfigures in Crystal Reports:
Each keyfigure is represented with a field in a group called Key Figures. In the case the keyfigure is configured in SAP BW with a unit, an additional field will be added representing the unit information. The Formatted Value represents the numeric value formatted as a string value following the userspecific formatting settings.
Hierarchies Hierarchies can be activated for characteristics in the BEx Query Designer and offer the user the capability to navigate along a hierarchical structure.
The image shows the field explorer in Crystal Reports based on an SAP BW query with a hierarchy.
A hierarchy results in a parent-child relationship.
Crystal Reports with simple SAP BW queries

Creating Crystal Reports Using the SAP Toolbar The SAP specific toolbar and the SAP specific menu items offer the user the typical SAP open and save dialogs that are also used in the Business Explorer and allow the user to store the Crystal Report object directly into SAP BW roles. The following table shows all available menu options of the SAP toolbar:

The SAP toolbar will appear on the left of the Start Page display.
2. 3.
In the SAP menu, select Settings. The Settings dialog appears. Select Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures and select OK.
4.
Now you want to change the Initial Setup and show only the description of the characteristic and the key figures of the BEx query.
5.
Select the menu File > Options > Database and set the option Show Description
Now the Field Explorer will show SAP metadata instead of the technical name for the fields.
6.
In the SAP toolbar, select Create new report from a query. The SAP System dialog appears.
7. 8.
Select the system and click Next. Select Roles. Expand the folder and select the query.
Insert a Field 9. Expand the Database Fields node in the Field Explorer dialog.
10. Drag Product Group into the Details section of the Design tab. An object frame appears with the Arrow cursor as you drag the field onto the report: The object frame represents the object you have just selected for placement. The size of the object frame approximates the size of the data in the field selected. Move the object frame as far to the left as you can in the Details section. If you move the field too far to the left, the Arrow cursor turns into a Stop cursor, indicating that you cannot drag the field that far. Keep in mind that you cannot place any objects outside the page margin.
The Design tab should look similar to this:
Insert Additional Fields
11. Drag Product (SAP Demo) into the Details section of the Design tab to the right of Product Group.
Note: To select multiple fields, use the Ctrl-click combination to select a non-continuous range of fields. Use the
Shift-click combination to select several fields from the list that are contiguous. The fields appear in the Details section of the report in the same order as in the Field Explorer dialog box.
12. Expand the Key Figures entry. Drag the Net Sales Value field to the right of Product (SAP Demo).
In the Field Explorer dialog box, the system indicates which items have been selected by placing a check mark ( ) on the fields used.
The Design tab should look similar to this:
Preview the Report
13. Click Print Preview on the Standard toolbar (or View Print tab. The Enter Values dialog appears.
Preview in the menu) to activate the Preview
Note: The first time you preview a report, you must select Print Preview to activate the Preview tab. The Preview
tab appears to the right of the Design tab. You can then switch between designing and previewing the report by clicking the corresponding tab.
14. Use the Shift-click combination to select the Bag & Outdoor, Accessories, and Office product groups in the Available Values list. Select the > button to transfer these values to the Selected Values list and select OK.
The system populates the Preview tab based on your selections. The screen should look similar to this:
Resize Fields 15. You can see that the Net Sales field is too small. Return to the Design tab to resize the field. 16. Click the Net Sales field in the Details section to select it. Press the Ctrl key and click the field heading to select both objects.
17. Move the cursor over the resizing handle on the right edge of the fields until the cursor turns into a Resizing cursor. Resize the fields to the right until they are approximately 1.5 inches in length.
Change Field Headings
18. You need to edit the (SAP Demo) information out of the headings. Select the Preview tab. Right-click on the Product Group field and select Edit Text (you can also use double-click) from the shortcut menu. Remove the extra test so that the heading contains only the Product Group text. Repeat for the Product heading.
Note: You can perform the same function in the Design tab.
Add Summary Information
The next step is to add summary information to your report. Adding summary information allows you to specify the author, title, and subject of the report, as well as any keywords or comments related to the report. When you add summary information, users can find information related to the report quickly.
19. On the File menu, click Summary Info. The Document Properties dialog box appears with the Summary tab active. 20. Enter information about your report in the text boxes provided. Be sure to complete the Author and Title fields.
Add a title
As you can see, the report looks incomplete without a title. Although you can add a title using a text object, you can also tell the program to take the title information directly from the Title text box in the Document Properties dialog box.
21. Select the Design tab. Expand Special Fields in the Field Explorer. 22. Drag and drop Report Title to the upper left corner of the Page Header section of the report. 23. Drag and drop File Author to the lower left corner of the Page Footer section of the report.

25. You now need to format the title. To center the title, first expand the Title field to the same width as the data in your report. To do this, select the object by clicking it. Position the cursor on the right edge of the object until the cursor turns into a Resizing cursor. Drag the right edge of the field box until it is even with the right edge of the data in the Net Sales field object. 26. You have created a large field that extends from the left edge to the right edge of the report. With the report title object still selected, click Align Center on the Formatting toolbar. 27. Right-click the object and choose Format Field from the shortcut menu. 28. When the Format Editor appears, click the Font tab. Set the report title to a larger, bolder version of the active font by selecting Bold from the Style list and 16 (or a point size suitable to the font you are using) from the Size list. 29. Change the color of the text by selecting a new color from the Color palette. Notice that the Sample box shows an example of how the text will look. Click OK when finished. 30. Drag the bottom edge of the field box down to resize the report title object vertically and accommodate the increased size of the title.
You should get the following result:

41. Click OK to save the report to SAP BI.
Creating your First Report with Hierarchies from SAP BI

For this report I am using a SAP BI Query based on the cube 0D_DX_C01 (Demo Scenario DalSegno Company) with the following characteristics: o Customer with an activated hierarchy
and the following keyfigures o o Billed Quantity Net Sales
1.
Select Start
All Programs
Crystal Reports 2008
Crystal Reports 2008 to start Crystal Reports.
The SAP toolbar will appear on the left of the Start Page display.
2. 3.
In the SAP menu, select Settings. The Settings dialog appears. Select Use MDX driver with support for Multiple structures and select OK.
4.
Now you want to change the Initial Setup and show only the description of the characteristic and the key figures of the BEx query.
5.
Select the menu File > Options > Database and set the option Show Description
Now the Field Explorer will show SAP metadata instead of the technical name for the fields.
6.
In the SAP toolbar, select Create new report from a query. The SAP System dialog appears.
7.
Select the system and click Next. Enter your logon information and select OK. The Select Query dialog appears.
8.
Select Roles. Expand the folder and select the query.
The activated hierarchy from the underlying SAP BW query will result in a parent-child relationship being represented in Crystal Reports. 9. Select the menu Insert > Group.
10. Select the Node ID field from the hierarchy.
11. Navigate to the Options tab.
12. Select the Customize Group Name Field option. 13. Select the description value for the hierarchy to the Medium Name from the characteristic Customer
14. Click OK. 15. Select the menu Report > Hierarchical Grouping options. 16. Select the Sort Data Hierarchically option.
17. Select the Parent Node ID field of the Customer Hierarchy.
18. Define the Group Indent. 19. Click OK. 20. Hide the detail section of your report. 21. Select the menu View > Print Preview. 22. Enter a date for the keydate variable (use the date of today)
23. Navigate to the Design tab. 24. Add a keyfigure to the details section of the report. 25. Right-click the added keyfigure. 26. Select the menu Insert > Summary.
27. Select Sum as the calculation option. 28. Select Group #1 for the summary location.
The option Summarize across hierarchy allows creating a group summary by adding values from the lower level of a hierarchy up to a higher aggregated level. An example would be to summarize salary figures from the lowest level of an organization hierarchy up to the top level of the hierarchy. In the case of an SAP
BW query as a data source the option Summarize across hierarchy is not necessary because the underlying SAP BW query returns the aggregated values for all hierarchy nodes to Crystal Reports. 29. Move the summary to the Group Header #1. 30. Hide the Group Footer #1 in the report design. 31. Preview the report.
Formulas for Hierarchical Reporting Crystal Reports designer offers some additional formulas and functions that allow the user to create a better report design and provide conditional formatting even in the context of a hierarchy.
Formula Hierarchy Level The first formula for hierarchical reporting is the formula HierarchyLevel(). The formula HierarchyLevel() allows retrieving the level of the hierarchical grouping. The formula needs a GroupLevel as input.
The following is an example for the formula syntax assuming Country Node ID is the grouping field in the report:
HierarchyLevel ( GroupingLevel ( {Country Node ID}) )
Count Hierarchical Children The second formula is CountHierarchicalChildren() which allows counting the number of children of a hierarchy level. The formula needs a GroupLevel as input.
The following is an example for the formula syntax assuming Country Node ID is the grouping field in the report: CountHierarchicalChildren ( GroupingLevel ({Country Node ID}) ) The count of children refers to the number of children in the hierarchy level.
Conditional Formatting with Hierarchy Level With the formulas the report can be conditionally formatted so that the group headings follow an indentation and the keyfigures stay aligned.
To change the formatting of the group headings 1. 2. 3. Start Crystal Reports Designer (Start > Programs > Crystal Reports 2008 > Crystal Reports 2008). Open the report from the previous activity. Navigate to the Design tab.
4.
Select the menu Report > Hierarchical Grouping Options.
5. 6. 7. 8.
Set the option Group Indent to 0. Click OK. Right-click the Group #1 Name field. Select the menu Size and Position.
9.
Click the icon for conditional formatting for the X-axis value.
10.
Enter the following formula: (HierarchyLevel (GroupingLevel ({Hierarchy Node ID} ) ) ) *150
In our example the formula would look like the following:
HierarchyLevel (GroupingLevel ({0D_DX_C01_BUSINESSOBJECTS_QRY_HIERARCHY.[0D_CUSTOMER TEMPORAL JOIN HIERARCHY]-NodeId})) * 150
