Working with Remote Data To ensure that you see updates to data, click File and clear the "Save Data with Report" option. As you interact with the report, for example, drilling down to hidden details, Crystal Reports executes SQL queries to retrieve the data needed to display the report. To reload data you have already retrieved, refresh or rerun the report. You can offload processing onto the driver by hiding details elements and enabling server-side grouping. To do this, you need to select a column to group by in the report creation wizard. Click File -> Report Options and select the "Perform Grouping On Server" option. Click Report -> Section Expert and select the Details section of your report. Select the "Hide (Drill-Down OK)" option. When you preview your report with the hidden details, Crystal Reports executes a GROUP BY query. When you double-click a column in the chart to drill down to details, Crystal Reports executes a SELECT WHERE query that decreases load times by retrieving only the data needed. At this point, you have created a SAP Crystal report built on top of live QuickBooks data using SAP Crystal Reports and CData ODBC driver.
