Crystal parameter functionality

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Need the below functionality :

From the parameter screen in Crystal i want to hide  Fiscal Year, From Fiscal Period, To FiscalPeriod

After the user enters the value in Fiscyr_prd(20140=6-20147).

I want the yr and periods taken out from Fiscyr_prd
and fill in the hidden fields.

Regards,

Venkat.

Hi Venkat,

CR's prompt screen is hardly customizable. It doesn't allow you to dynamically display or hide certain prompts. It also does not automatically fill in prompt values based on a value in another prompt.

If you're running the report from your own application, you would have to create a parameter screen that will do what you want and then set the parameter values in code which will effectively "turn off" the Crystal parameter screen in order to get the functionality that you're looking for.  If you're running from BO/CRS or an application that you haven't written, there is no way to do this.
