Crystal Report Performance
What could be the possible problem if the report keeps on running without responding even before prompt comes up?
sreenu435
- Mar 10th, 2011
If it is before prompts then problem with paramenters passing or server problem, not db problem. After prompts report tries to connect to db so it could be problem in passing paramenters.

If all CR (with or without prompt) behave in same way then something is wrong with your CRPE.Otherwise, there is some problem with prompts.Try changing the viewer for CR and it may run fine.Cheers.

Rajnish_kaushal- Member Since Apr-2009 | Apr 13th, 2009
CMC and CCM , both have some common features and they are as you mentioned. But there are some unique things which you can do in one and not other.
CMC
You can set what need to be audit in individual servers.
You can enable auditing in CMC only.
You can set metrics of individual serves in CMC only and not in CCM.
You can see how many sessions are live only in CMC and not in CCM.
You can see how many requests were received , processed , failed only in CMC but not in CCM.
You can create server groups only in CMC but not in CCM.
CCM
You can only cluster and decluster servers using CCM.
You can only configured Auditing Database in CCM and not in CMC. You do configure individual servers in CMC but main work of configuring audit database is done in CCM.
Last but not least. CMC is web based server application. If your web server is down and you want to cring other servers up and running, you can only do in CCM.

Can we apply Rank and Sort at a time on a single report
nanis38
- Jun 15th, 2011
Ranking has priority than sorting .we apply ranking on dimension based on the measure like if you want to display top 100 sales revenue generated by a product or bottom 100 sales generated by a product.sorting is not based on measure or anything it will sort in ascending ,descending or custom order
sandeepkumarc
- Jun 13th, 2008
If we think logically what is the purpose of sorting, if its been ranked already, Ranking will sort the rows from higher to lowest order(Descending order). Does it make sense :)ThanksRex
