Connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC

[Former Member]

Hi. can you help me please.

I'm testing the connection between Crystal Report and SAP ECC. I tried using the tables,

but by making the links between foreign keys does not bring data. The other way I tried was using an ABAP function module,

but using this way, Crystal will only works like a Presentation Layer because all the work was did it in ABAP;

besides that shows the limitation that I can not pass as input a table.

what is the best practice for reporting on SAP ECC using Crystal Report?

Thanks.

Hi,

Crystal Reports is able to leverage tables, ABAP functions, SAP query and InfoSets.

what is the issue when using the tables ?

The problem is that the report contains nested queries on the same table, so that when you perform the data and filters do not get it, because it makes the doubles Cartesian products.
