Crystal Reports for Eclipse Designer Guide

What specific data should appear in the body of the report?

The body should contain all the data needed to fulfill the statement of purpose you wrote for the report. It should also contain all of the data needed by the various users that you have identified.
This step requires you to look at the available database table(s). Crystal Reports allows you to combine data from different databases when you create reports, so you have a great deal of flexibility in your work.
  • Much of the data in a typical report is taken directly from data fields. Which data fields will be used, and where are they located?
  • Other data will be calculated based on data fields. Which data fields will be used in the calculations?
  • Still other data will be placed directly into the report using text objects (headings, notes, labels, and so on).
