E10 No Record Found Report Alert

I do something similar to Patrick.  I start all my BAQs with the company table so that at least one record is returned (the company record).  Then if no records are returned under the Company table, I display "No Records Found".  I kind of like Patrick's way better now that I think about it.

The other option is when you create the report use and outer join at the top join so you actually display a header record for the report and then no detail records.
The result would be a report with no records but it still prints out the report, I have done this with BAQ’s to Crystal and then programed a message in the body “No Records Found”.
It was an error trapping report so the user wanted proof that they ran the report each week.

I have that exact thing on my “go-live” to-do list.  Because it does not find any data in the create XML (or database) phase it never fires the report (Crystal or SSRS).  With my direct ODBC reports I can generate a blank one but the report style reports from within the system leave people guessing.  The closest we have come is the pop-up balloons.  There are pop-ups for errors but it would be nice if there was also one for no records found.

Is it possible to globally make it so when a report finds no records it actually says that, rather then having to go to system monitor? Thanks

Is it possible to globally make it so when a report finds no records it actually says that, rather then having to go to system monitor? Thanks

I have that exact thing on my “go-live” to-do list.  Because it does not find any data in the create XML (or database) phase it never fires the report (Crystal or SSRS).  With my direct ODBC reports I can generate a blank one but the report style reports from within the system leave people guessing.  The closest we have come is the pop-up balloons.  There are pop-ups for errors but it would be nice if there was also one for no records found.

The other option is when you create the report use and outer join at the top join so you actually display a header record for the report and then no detail records.

The result would be a report with no records but it still prints out the report, I have done this with BAQ’s to Crystal and then programed a message in the body “No Records Found”.

It was an error trapping report so the user wanted proof that they ran the report each week.
