Hi all,
i have this Crystal formula below. I'd like to convert it to SSRS,but i can't convert it just like that because SSRS needs another "else condition"
anybnody can help me out?
if {.RMDTYPAL}=7 or {.RMDTYPAL}=9 then 0else if {.DUEDATE} < {?Cut-off Date} then {.CURTRXAM}*{?IntRate}*({?Cut-off Date}-{.DUEDATE})/360
thanks,

Converting Crystal Report formula to SSRS
I've got a formula written in Crystal Reports that I'm trying to re-do in SSRS 2005. I've just been using Crystal Reports for so long, I've got a mental road-block today.
Here is the formula in Crystal Reports:
IF {V_VIEW.FIELD1} IN ["AAA", "BBB", "CCC", "DDD",
"EEE", "FFF"]
THEN ({V_VIEW.FIELD2}&"*")
ELSE ({V_VIEW.FIELD2})
(It concatonates an asterisk to the end of FIELD2 if FIELD1 contains on of the values in the list.)
In SSRS I'd like to cause an entire row to be bold if FIELD1 contains one of the values in the list.
So in SSRS I'm putting an expression into the FontWeight properties of the TableRow and trying for something (which doesn't work yet) like:
=iif (Fields!FIELD1.Value IN ("AAA", "BBB", "CCC", "DDD", "EEE", "FFF"), "BOLD", "NORMAL")
(SSRS doesn't like the "IN" in the above statement.)
Can anyone offer a suggestion on how to write this for SSRS?
Thanks!

Ok. I found a workable solution. Does anyone have a better suggestion than the following? The below works but it seems it could be done more simply... Any suggestions?
=iif (Fields!FIELD1.Value = "AAA","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "BBB","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "CCC","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "DDD","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "EEE","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "FFF","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "GGG","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "HHH","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "III","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "JJJ","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "KKK","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "LLL","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "MMM","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "NNN","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "OOO","Bold",
iif(Fields!FIELD1.Value = "PPP","Bold",
"Normal"))))))))))))))))
I came across a website that claimed "There are approximately 116 functions in Crystal Reports that do not have a direct equivalent in VB.NET or Reporting Services (SSRS)." Does anyone know what these functions are?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi. We've decided to convert our Crystal Reports to SSRS 2005. We know (thanks to this forum) there are companies that will convert the reports at a cost; however, we'd like to undertake this ourselves. Are there resources you can point us to that might be specific for Crystal Reports users coming over to SSRS, especially for newbies? Thank you.

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,
Patrick Conway
Hi James,
I need some help from you on solving a problem in Crystal to SSRS conversion.
I am trying to convert a Crystal Report to an SSRS Report.In the Crystal Report the Data is filtered using a Parameter which can accept Multiple Range Values.In order to achieve the same feature in SSRS I wrote a small Custom Code in VB.
This Function will accept the Field and the Parameter as Strings with multiple ranges separated by commas and will return a Boolean True if the field satisfies any one of the given ranges.Otherwise it will pass a Boolean false.
So only the Rows with True as return value are passed forward.
I used the above condition in the filter clause of the Datasets not in the where clause unlike Crystal.Now I face a new Problem. In the Crystal report there are 3 Groups and the Crystal Query has an Order by clause on these 3 Groups.
So In crystal after the where clause the Sorting is taking place.
Now I tried to do the same in SSRS and implemented the Order By clause in the SSRS Query.But the outputs are not matching.
One reason may be that ,In Crystal the Sorting of data in groups is done after filtering but in SSRS Sorting is done before the filtering.
Is there an alternative or any work around that you can suggest me to get the same as of Crystal.
Please help me.
Hello all ...
I want to know which would be the best for reporting in either of the above two. I am working on with SSRS but don't have any idea about crystal reports. So you all please suggest the best one would be for me espcially for web based reporting.

1) Crystal Reports provides extensive parameter support. The types of parameters supported are: single value, multi-value, and range value (e.g. Start date to End date), or a combination of all three.
2) SSRS parameters only support entry of a single value. It doesn't support multi-value parameters or range parameters. For example, the user can't be presented with a list of Employees and select more than one for reporting on. Doing so requires writing custom code and writing more complex SQL queries

I am in the middle of migrating all Crystal Reports over to SSRS and am having some troubles converting formulas used in Crystal Reports to functional expressions in SSRS. For example: My formula for one of the crystal reports is the following. Very simple logic but how would I build it as an expression to work in my SSRS report?
IF {CUST_ORDER_LINE.ORDER_QTY}-{CUST_ORDER_LINE.TOTAL_SHIPPED_QTY} < 0 THEN 0 ELSE {CUST_ORDER_LINE.ORDER_QTY}-{CUST_ORDER_LINE.TOTAL_SHIPPED_QTY}

i wonder what is the best approach to use !!!i have creditLimit column in Customer Table the default value will be 500 and this limit to allow users to send sms from my website ..... every month they will be allowed to send 500 sms referring to the credit limit column.... now !!if the user sent today some sms and after few days sent another 20 and after one week he sent 150 SMS as a total so that means he has only 350 SMS as credit to use this month!!!so what is the best approach to implement this solution ? shall i have another field in the table called 'CreditUsed' and that will be updated each time the user will send SMS and this value will be compared with the credit limit ORi use the formula for the column to calculate the credit left and do the maths !!!what is the best approach as you think ???thnaks for reading this question !!

I have asked this question before in a different section of the forum without much reply, and its probably because i was asking the wrong people.
I need to calculate a qouta for an election.
SqlCommand SqlCmd1 = new SqlCommand("SELECT count(vote)FROM PRTest", SqlCon1);
int quota = (count(Vote) + 1) / ((11) + 1);
My problem is this: how to i get the count(vote) value from the Sql Statement to the formula.
This does nothing:([rush24] + [rush6] + [addLocationsTotal] + 50)
This gives me my total correctly:([rush24] + [rush6] + 50)
All column are numeric(9) except the "total" column which is numeric(13).
Why is this happening?

I have a quick question. created a report with this formula below. It works when I put a date range from 1-1-2007 to 2-1-2007, but when I put in a date range of 03-01-2008 through 03-31-2008. i get an error message of arithmetic overflow error converting numeric to data type numberic.
So instead of haveing the formula below be (4,2) I put it as (5,2) and now it work. Why is that?
CAST(clm_sppo / clm_tchg * 100 AS decimal(4, 2)) AS PercentSavings

Hi,I have three tables in the following structure (simplified):Table 1: Containing the customers-------------------------------------------------create table Customers([cusID] int identity(1, 1) not null,[cusName] varchar(25) not null)Table 2: Containing the customer data fields---------------------------------------------------------------create table Data([datID] int identity(1, 1) not null,[datName] varchar(25) not null,[datFormula] varchar(1500))Table 3: Containing the customer data values-----------------------------------------------------------------create table Values([cusID] int not null,[datID] int not null,[valValue] sql_variant)In this structure the user can add as many data fields to a customer ashe wants (e.g. Country, City, Email, Phone, ...). I have added triggerswhich create a view similar to a pivot (I am working in SQL 2000) andadd triggers to the view so it is insertable, deletable and updateable.What I would like to do, is allow the user to create new fields wherethe values are based upon a calculation. This calculation would be donethrough a formula similar to what he would do e.g. in excel (thisformula is stored in the dimFormula field then).An example might help. Let's assume the user created a field 'Sales'(containing last year's sales) and 'Invoices' (containing the number ofinvoices that were created for him last year). Now, he wants to createa field 'AvgSales' with the formula '[Sales]/[Invoices]'.(Note that through adding these data fields, the above view was created(let's assume it is called vw_Customers and contains the columns [ID],[Name], [Sales], [Invoices], [AvgSales]).What I am looking for is a function which can parse this formula into at_sql query which runs the calculation. So, the formula'[Sales]/[Invoices]' would be translated into (let's assume there areno records with NULL or zero invoices):update vw_Customersset [AvgSales] = [Sales]/[Invoices]from vw_CustomersI am able to do the above with simple calculations (where you can evenuse sql functions e.g. year, len, ...). Now I would like to take thisone step forward into the possibility of using functions with morevariables.For example. Let's assume, the user wants to add a rating (field called'Rating') to his customers based upon the result of 'AvgSales. Heenters the formula 'if([AvgSales] > 2500, 'A', 'B')'.If anyone could help me on this, I would be very grateful. Thanks.M
