There are two functions that come with SAP Business Objects Crystal
Reports that can help you display on your reports when the report format
was last modified. These functions are found under
Functions>Document Properties and are labeled ModificationDate and
ModificationTime.
For use, I created a new formula called ModificationDateTime and added the following syntax:
"This Report Format Last Modified on "+Cstr(ModificationDate)+" at "+Cstr(ModificationTime)
I put my formula field in light gray letters in the page footer, light enough for someone to just barely see it.
This way when you get complaints about one
users report does not look like another users version of the same
report you can peek at the ModificationDate/Time displayed on the bottom
and tell them they have an outdated report.
If you play around with some of the functions in the
Functions>Document Properties of the tree, you will find several
functions that could come in handy. I will show you some of those in
the next few days.
Have a great weekend!
