    Wierd Week

    Interesting, Charliy's formula yields an integter (week number) while Ken's yields a date, the first day of the week. Both are very useful. thanks, Howard Howard Hammerman, Crystal Training and Crystal Material On-site classes and one-on-one coaching Low-cost telephone/email support...

    Wierd Week

    I need to group payroll data by week. The problem is, my client's week starts on a Monday and ends on a Sunday. How do I tell the group expert to sort on that kind of week? I know that there is a place to enter a formula, I just can't figure it out. Thanks, Howard Hammerman, Crystal Training...

    Regular and overtime

    I need to create a payroll report that separates employees' hours into regular and overtime. The employees go out on service jobs (dispatches). Each dispatch will have a start and end time. I've already calculated the number of hours for each dispatch. For example, 3.50 hours. Regular time is...

    Reports on the Web

    I have a potential client that needs to post the results of a report on their web page on a daily basis. The report need not be interactive. If we could include drill-down capability, that would be great. What is the best way to do this? I know how to export to HTML, but I could use help...

    Conditional Suppression in a Cross Tab

    There is a problem with a manual cross tab. One of the summary measures is an average. Within the xtab expert the averages are accurate. However, in the manual xtab they are not. They are not because I am summing on an indicator formula: If {table1.size} = size1 then 1 else 0. For the sales I...

    Conditional Suppression in a Cross Tab

    Been there, done that, it doesn't work. The reason it doesn't work is that I am comparing a subtotal created by the cross tab expert to the parameter value. That subtotal does not exist. Remember it is in a cross tab. There are 14 values in my column field. I need to access the total at level...

    Conditional Suppression in a Cross Tab

    My client has create a cross tab with two row fields and one column subtotal. There are 14 categories in the column field. Each cell has two values: Units sold, average sale. It works perfectly. Now the client wants to suppress the values in each cell (but not the row totals) when the sum of...

    percentages struggle

    Are the A products in our group and the B products in another? Are A & B a sub-group of group 1 (that is, group 2)? If so, sum the sales at the group 2 level and create a formula that divided the value by the subtotal. I bet it is more complicated, right? Howard Hammerman, Crystal Training...

    Auto refresh

    I need to have a Crystal Report (Crystal 2008) refresh itself every 15 minutes. Is there a way to do this within Crystal. Is there a third party program to do it? Thanks, Howard Hammerman, Crystal Training and Crystal Material On-site classes and one-on-one coaching Low-cost telephone/email...

    blank lines

    I found the answer elsewhere in the forum. I needed to "suppress blank sub-reports" in the "format sub-report" attribute of the two sub-reports. Thanks to all. Howard Hammerman, Crystal Training and Crystal Material On-site classes and one-on-one coaching Low-cost telephone/email support...

    Compare two fields for full or partial match

    The soundex function looks at a string of text. It eliminates all the vowels (except for the first letter) and one of all the duplicated consonants. Then it assigns a number to each consonant or consonant group according to the sound. It returns the first letter and the first four numbers...

    blank lines

    I have developed a complex report for my client. It is grouped by employee number and then sorted by invoice number. In order to get the correct results, I need two sub-reports based on the invoice number. I created two additional detail sections. Detail a has only a "reset" formula in which I...

    I want "Ons" and "Offs" to be greater than 30 then highlight yellow

    I guess the important word in your last sentence is ONLY. Right now yellow happens if Percentdelta is in the range. Here is a better statement: if Sum ({apc_correlated.ons}, {apc_correlated.transit_date_time}, "daily") > 30 or Sum ({apc_correlated.offs}, {apc_correlated.transit_date_time}...

    Need to use minimum odometer reading from one month minus previous month in calculation

    First step would be to group on the truck field. Then you need to filter your data to get the reading on first day of the month. Can we assume that there is always a reading on the first day of the month? Use Day({table.field}) = 1 in your query. Next create a year and month field by using the...

    Formula Will Not Display in Header

    I bet you have sorted & grouped your data by {coverage.datein}. The first formula works because you are looking at the first date when processing the report header. When processing the first record {Coverage.DATEIN} = ({?Start Date}+1) will be false. You did not provide an "else" part of your...
