Unable to view reports on FleetWave

The Crystal Report viewer should automatically download the first time that you try to view a report. In some versions of Internet Explorer this does not happen, and the viewer needs to be installed. The Crystal Report Viewer can be downloaded here.

Installation instructions:

When downloading choose to 'Run from current location'
When prompted, unzip to a temporary folder (e.g. c:\windows\temp\npviewer)
Once the files have been extracted, the installation program will run to register the files as necessary.

Useful expressions for screen designing

GCV("COST1")+GCV("COST2")

Gets the value of two fields and adds them together. This can be used if you have lots of money/price boxes and want to total them up at the end.

(Note this will show as blue Text)

SCV("TOTAL",GCV("COST1")+GCV("COST2"))

This will actually set another field to be the value of other money fields added together. This makes it easier for reporting purposes when you want to show the total amount.

GCV("LASTDONE")+GCV("INTERVAL")

If you want to record the interval for a special requirement. E.g You want to record the interval when a particular part is replaced.

The following will show at what mileage the part will need changing:

LASTDONE
is a field that holds the mileage reading when the Process was last performed E.g. 60,000 miles
INTERVAL
is a field that holds the interval mileage E.g. 10,000 miles.

The calculation will get the value of 70,000 and display this on the screen. You could then build this into a report to highlight when this is near the current odometer.

Also on screen you could go even further to make the mileage reading display in different colours as the current mileage reading gets closer to the change mileage.

Conditional Expressions

If you want to display something on the vehicle screen to remind you the vehicle is getting old and near replacement you can have an expression to display a group of words.

IF(GCV("REG_DATE")<(Today()-730),"Vehicle at Least 2 Years Old"," ")

If the Registration Date is 2 or more years (730 days) from today then it will show vehicle is at least 2 years old on screen. If it isn't then nothing will show.

Cross Populate Fields

Here is an example of how you could populate a field with something based on what is entered on another field.

For example if you set the make of a vehicle to SCANIA, you could make it so it sets the vehicle type to be HGV automatically.

IF(GCV("MAKE")="SCANIA",SCV("NEW","HGV")," ")
