I haven't used CR XI but can you edit the SQL it produces to delete the DISTINCT?<br />

If not have you tried copying it and using a COMMAND as the data source? &nbsp;<br />

You cannot edit the sql directly when the datasource is a Universe. &nbsp;Unfortunately the source being a universe is one of my requirements (for data security reasons) so writting a command to tackle this is also not an option.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking I'm just SOL on this one.<br />

I'm working on some financial reports using CR XI going against a BO Universe (BOE XI). &nbsp;I'm having some serious issues because the query formed by Crystal is always formed using the DISTINCT command -- this is removing several &quot;commonly occuring&quot; GL entries from my report (all transactions of 100 dollars are represented by only one record).<br />
<br />
Is there anyway to force the universe to return duplicate records? &nbsp;I have complete control of both the Universe and and the report file.<br />
<br />
Please let me know if there's anything I can do.<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

Experts,

I'm working on some financial reports using CR XI going against a BO Universe (BOE XI).  I'm having some serious issues because the query formed by Crystal is always formed using the DISTINCT command -- this is removing several "commonly occuring" GL entries from my report (all transactions of 100 dollars are represented by only one record).

Is there anyway to force the universe to return duplicate records?  I have complete control of both the Universe and and the report file.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do.

Thanks!

Returning Duplicate Rows from a BO Universe

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
