- The parameters appear to be skipped when refreshed in infoview despite the options set to FALSE according to kbase 1784776 Crystal Reports BW prompting behavior changes after installing FixPack or Service Pack)
- However this was not an issue in XI3.1 SP3 FP3.x patch level
- On the parameter page, the actual parameters or prompts are missing while users see 3 buttons : Execute, Expand All and Collapse All. (as below)
- This is not the case with default samples and non-SAP based reports, which seem to work as designed
