We are in the process of updating our CE Enterprise ver 10 Server to BOBJ 4.1 SP2 (using BOE Xi 3.1 as the intermediate as one cannot migrate directly) and encountered a puzzling issue in the test environment when using BOBJ 4.1 SP2 (or even BOE Xi 3.1).
Here's our issue:
A former staff many moons ago must have set up a custom SDK for the Crystal Enterprise ver 10 where there is a "hidden" parameter that would automatically pass the value of the User security groups (ie. If you belong to Security Group A), then "A" will pass to the "vUsername" parameter automatically when an individual runs a Crystal Report. The report would, based on this, only show Group A's data. User belonging to Group B would then only see Group B's data, and Group C would only see C's data in the report, etc. This is working fine in Crystal Enterprise ver 10, but on the newly set up BOBJ 4.1 SP2 CMS server (test environment), we could not get the value to pass automatically. Other reports not dependent on the 'hidden' parameter is working fine.
I'm assuming we need to add this using a Publication or use Processing Extension somehow to mimic the current process seen in CE ver 10.. Would anyone be able to assist or direct me on how to get this set up as we've been puzzling over this for awhile now and we need to get this resolved asap.
Thank you in advance!
