We are running Crystal Server 2011 (Version: 14.0.9.1474) on a server. We have a report designed in Crystal Reports Designer XI Release 2 that was uploaded to Crystal Server 2011.
In Designer XI, when the report is ran is first asks for a start/end date and uses that to go query the database. It then prompts for a third value and uses that as a Record Selection filter. The report selection filter has logic to allow to allow for the third value to be null/not set via
{Command.ARST_ORI} = iif(length({?Arresting ORI})>0,{?Arresting ORI},{Command.ARST_ORI})
When this report is ran or scheduled via Crystal Server 2011, it sees that third parameter as being mandatory and so expects data to be populated for it. Is there any way to tell Crystal Server 2011 to allow the parameter to be optional, given the report is designed/maintained in Crystal Server 2011 currently. I'm open to options, including whether using the client software of Crystal Reports 2011 to design/maintain the reports on a separate machine will work.
