How to create a side menu in Crystal Reports?

[Former Member]

So here's a tricky one, or maye it's not and I'm just missing the obvious.

I want to create a side menu for my report in SAP B1. Let's say I have a report that shows the activity of an employee and I want to be able to change between employees using the side menu. I believe it's got something to do with groups in SAP.

I've seen something similar someplace; the report has 4 groups and that's what's shown on the side menu; that's how I knew it was somehow possible; I'm attaching a print screen of the aforedmentioned report that I managed to get.

BTW, if it's not possible in SAP B1 I was wondering whether it might be possible in SAP BI BO.

Any comment on this would be highly appreciated

hi Carlos,

this is definitely possible in crystal reports. however, if you need it in b1, please follow Ludek's advice on reposting there.

for crystal though, as soon as you create a group, a "group tree" is created. this group tree is then available in the crystal reports viewer if you're viewing from sap bi / bo. you would design your report to have one group per page, and then the end user could navigate from group to group / page to page.

cheers,

This clears several of my doubts.

I will try my luck with the B1 functionality in their topic.

Thank you
