Hi,
What are the possibilities of implementing Crystal Reports without going for a full blown BOBJ project?
What are pre-requisites for clients who have
1. ) just ECC -
2) ECC and BI
Do thet need the BOE installation for utilizing basic Crystal capabilities?
Thanks,
Raj
If you do not have a BOE server installaiton then you cannot let your users access the reports over the network using only their internet browser. Every user has to have a CR Designer installation in order to be able to refresh the reports. Additionally without a BOE server the parameter picklists are not really dynamic when you access SAP BW over a BEx query.
A BOE server provides also additional functionalities like object-related security, scheduling, report bursting etc.

Please note that the CR viewer will not allow you to refresh the reports dynamically.
Anothe option is to install the CR Designer and the int.Kit on all end-users workstations and let the users open the report there. Still you need to acquire the required number of licenses and to be honest the CR Designer is not considered to be an end-user tool.

You do not need BOE to create crystal reports against SAP BW or ECC. You can create crystal reports directly on top of SAP BW queries or tables, views, FMs, Infosests in ECC.
