Hi All,
How can check the following formula which i used in crystal reports in PL/SQL.Because i want to test this is correct or not.
crystal formula:
IF {A_SECS.ISSUE_DATE} <= {?As At Date} THEN
(
IssuedVolume := {A_SECS.ISSUED_VOLUME};
)
ELSE
IssuedVolume := 0;
In PL/SQL ??
How??
A_SECS is view here
Please help..

I know nothing about Crystal Reports, but based on the fact that it it a reporting tool, I would guess it uses some sort of SQL, not PL/SQL (also because Crystal Reports works on various databases if I'm not mistaken, so it wouldn't use a proprietary part like PL/SQL).
If so, track/trace the report to find out where the time is spent (database or reporting side). If it's the database, please post the SQL statement (including tracefile), we might be able to help you. If it's the reporting side, I would suggest to find a Crystal Reports forum or something...

Dear All,
I have certain condition in my crystal report formula
like =,<,<=,>= and etc.
So how can i rearrange my condition depends the conditional operator priority in order to make it fast the calculation.
Example
IF {A_SECS.SEC_TYPE} = "REPO MRF" AND
{A_REPOS.SEC_REF} = {A_TRANSACTIONS.SEC_LENDING_UNDERLYING_SEC_REF} AND //This is beyond essential to get the underlying nominal!
{A_REPOS.MATURITY_DATE} >= {?As At Date} AND
{A_TRANSACTIONS.PAYMENT_DATE} <= {?As At Date} AND
{A_TRANSACTIONS.BUSINESS_TRANSACTION_CODE} = "Open Reverse" //AND
//{A_TRANSACTIONS.ELEMENTARY_TRANSACTION_CODE} = "RalocResOut" AND
// {A_SECSSMALL.MATURITY_DATE} > {?As At Date} AND
//{A_TRANSACTIONS.TRANSACTION_CANCELLATION_FLAG} = "Active"
THEN
RIRepoMRF := RIRepoMRF + {A_TRANSACTIONS.NOMINAL}/1000000;

Dear All,
Sorry i am posting so many queries becoz i am working in crystal report platform,
IF (UPPERCASE({A_TRANSACTIONS.ELEMENTARY_TRANSACTION_CODE}) = "BUY" AND
(UPPERCASE({A_TRANSACTIONS.TRANSACTION_ORIGIN}) = "E-APPS" OR
UPPERCASE({A_TRANS_INSTRUCTIONS.INSTRUCTION_COMMENT}) = "AUCTION"))
OR (UPPERCASE({A_TRANSACTIONS.ELEMENTARY_TRANSACTION_CODE}) = "OPENBALANCE" AND
UPPERCASE({A_TRANSACTIONS.BUSINESS_TRANSACTION_CODE}) = "OPENBALANCE")
if i use like this in crystal reports its taking too much time so i want to minimize the execution speed please anybody can rearrange this query to make it fast

Are you sure that it is IF-THEN-ELSE construct that produces a bottleneck in this report?
I know nothing about Crystal Reports, but, generally speaking and referring a simple case such as IF a = 'ABC' OR b = 'EFG'
THEN ... I don't see a way how to make it run faster. If there were functions involved in your IF-THEN-ELSE, you might consider breaking it into nested IFs, so that you wouldn't have to wait for all of them to become TRUE in order to continue computing. It would look like this:IF function_1 (some_parameter) = 'ABC' THEN
IF function_2 (another_parameter) = 'EFG' THEN
IF function_e (third_parameter) = 'HIJ' THEN
var_x := 0;
END IF;
END IF;
END IF; So, if function_1 is different from 'ABC', all other IFs wouldn't be executed at all and it *might* be faster, I guess.
But, seeing your IF, using the UPPERCASE function shouldn't make a noticeable difference.
Once again: I'm not used to use Crystal Reports and I have no idea whether using a table directly in IF is OK or should it be used differently (as I've said in my previous post).
