3. Tips and Tricks

Web Intelligence Q&A

QUESTION:
When creating a document with multiple queries, I use the merged dimension option to synchronize the queries, which allows me to display the data in one table. Sometimes there is no compatible dimension between queries that can be synchronized, however I still want to display the item in the table. How can I accomplish this?

ANSWER:
To do this, you need to create a variable that references the dimension as a detail object. Click here to view full tech tip...

 

Crystal Reports Q&A

QUESTION:
I have created a chart that spans 12-months and the X-axis are my months. How do I change the format to something more pleasant?

ANSWER:
The format can be changed in several ways. Some are easier than others. Your options include:
1. Change the default Date Field format
2. Use a Time Scale
3. Base your chart off of a Group
4. Base your chart off of a cross-tab
