18.2 Viewing reports
You can view Crystal reports using a number of report viewers available through the stand-alone Report
Application Server (RAS) or SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise and the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise
Software Development Kit (SDK). For information about the Crystal Report Viewers, see the
Report
Application Server Viewer Help
or the viewer online help in the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise SDK
documentation.
In general, the Crystal Report Viewers are page viewers that let you see complete pages of your Crystal
reports. However, one viewer—the Report Part Viewer—lets you see specific report objects without
viewing the entire page. Report objects displayed in such a way are referred to as Report Parts.
18.2.1 Report Parts and other Report objects
18.2.1.1 What are Report Parts?
Report objects displayed by themselves in a viewer—without the rest of the report page—are referred
to as Report Parts. More precisely, however, Report Parts are objects that use hyperlinks to point from
a home report object to a destination object.
Report Parts work with the DHTML viewer subset of the Crystal Report Viewers to expand the navigation
possibilities within and between reports. Report Part hyperlinks can link to other objects in the current
report or to objects in any other report. This linking lets you create a guided path through your reports
that shows only specific information at each stop along the path.
Viewing Report Parts instead of the whole page is a powerful feature that allows you to seamlessly
integrate reports into portal and wireless applications.
18.2.1.1.1 Report Part Viewer
The Report Part Viewer is a viewer that lets you display Report Parts without the rest of the report page.
You can integrate this viewer into web applications so that your users see only specific report objects
without having to see the rest of the report.
For the most part, you set up the Report Part hyperlinks in the Report Designer, but you take advantage
of their functionality in the report viewers.
