Hello
I have a few questions related to options that i can use when i connect to a database like sql server or oracle and i cannot use these options when i connect the report from a universe.
1) When building a Crystal report that connects to the database through a universe i cant change the option Optional Prompt from False to True this option is disabled. This does not happen when the report is constructed by connecting directly to the database, this functionality is useful when you have multiple parameters in one report.
2) For cases of reports with multiple parameters (where you can choose more of a list available), under the scenario of the bd direct connection is possible to configure the Crystal Available Values list shows dimensions that have at least some value in Fact Table, through the choice of parameter settings, where you can indicate where you take the value and description separately.Under the scenario universe connection these options are disabled because they are based on the query of the universe, there is an alternative perhaps from the universe to achieve this behavior in Crystal?
Thanks
