In your ReportType form for Report Type "Crystal" do you see the following in 
the Run Command field?


Crystal10URL=|CRTLOC|/arreports/|RPTLOC|?init=|CRTVWR|&User0=|USR|;ARServer=|ARSERVER|;ARServerPort=|ARSERVERPORT|;ARAuthentication=|ARAUTHENTICATION|;ARReportLocale=|LOC|;ARVUIType=1&Password0=|PWD|&SF=|RPTQUERY|

(Note:  Replace the "|" character with the dollar sign character).

This should setup your connection to Crystal 10 URL to automatically log in as 
the right user and authenticate you correctly.

When you setup the Open Window active link to open a window type "Report" and 
if you specified the servername and formname you are running the report from 
then in the qualilfication line you should be able to select a field from the 
target form (I guess in this instance 'Instance ID') and enter the "=" sign and 
then select the field Instance ID from the Current Form listing.

Basically if you set this in the qualification then you wont need to prompt the 
user for this in Crystal:

'Instance ID' = |Instance ID|

Let me know if this helps.

I don't think so. I am being prompted by Crystal and have to log on with an 
account that was created for me in Crystal. As for the parameter field no I 
don't want to be prompted. How do I get the report to run and display info from 
the currently selected record?

Brian

the login prompt is from the ODBC source, you need to configure that properly, 
generally you should be able to save the user name and password for the ODBC 
connection, and Crystal will not prompt you.

Regarding the second bit, a parameter field is  supposed to  prompt you, that 
is the whole idea of having a parameter field. If you don't want to be prompted 
for the parameter field, remove it from the header.

hope this helps

In my current setup I don't have a Crystal server, so I'm not sure if this 
would work for you... but I'd try editing the ODBC driver on the Crystal server 
(should be a system and not a user ODBC) and modify it to contain, server, 
valid id/password.  Despite that it may still prompt, but its worth a try I 
think.

Ok I got this fixed. BMC gave me some new info to post into the Run field in 
the Report Type form. Now that I can at least get the report to run I am having 
a problem getting the results I need (sorry I do not know Crystal at all). When 
the AL runs it is prompting for an ID and password on the crystal server. Is 
there any way to prevent this? How can I pass along those credentials?

The other problem is getting the report to display the correct info. I have a 
unique Instance ID field in my form. The report actually contains two reports, 
header info and details (one to many tables). I added the Instance ID field as 
a Parameter field in Crystal and I am also being prompted for it. The report 
runs OK if I type in the user id, password and instance id but I need to 
automate this.

Can someone please steer me in the right direction.

Thanks

Do you have the report plugin listed in ar.conf/cfg for the corpnyremedy server?

Plugin: reportplugin.dll/.so

You should also be able to bump up plugin logging and see if the server is 
loading it.
