Problem with custom report in SL2011

I have a custom report that uses the same view and preprocess as the 08620 reports (view = vr_08620, preprocess = pb_08620). The report runs perfectly in SL7.0. However, SL2011 it generates a message detailed in the screenshot:

This appears to be related to a change in the preprocess whereby the view's name is prefixxed to the cRI_ID field, returning a value that is unrecognizable to the report.

I am by no means a report/Crystal expert, so would greatly appreciate any help that could be offered.

I've resolved this issue. While Don's answer wasn't 100% there, it did trigger something in my head. I modified the SP with a CASE statement to allow for the new reportnames for the custom reports. Problem solved!

Re: Problem with custom report in SL2011

Dear Stuart

Why did you find it necessary to change the name of the view to "vr_08620AVGSUM" in the report? Did you modify the view? From the custom report name "AvgSUM" it sounds like you are performing some mathematical calculations to average information in the report? Are you doing those calculations in the revised view? Generally I try to use the same view as SL where there is a preprocess in place. Is it possible to do the averaging in the report using total fields or formulas instead?

What does the formula field @ParentDocType look like? I do not see that in the standard 08620 report?

Does the report work without the record selection?

Thanks

Don
