  • Mistake in the creation of report painter

    Good,
    I have created a report and on having executed it it(he,she) gives me the following mistake:
    The line of formula 068 does not possess operandos of lines N º message: GR370
    Diagnosis The lines of formula link between(among) yes the lines of report for columns. The operandos of line are indicated in the formula by means of 'xxx' (xxx = n º of the block of line). Nevertheless, the line of formula 068 does not contain no(any) operating of line.
    We have tried to look for this line counting(telling) one for one and also for the denomination of the report and it(he,she) seems be nice, but we do not know to which this mistake owes.
    Neither we know that it(he,she) wants to say operating of line, someone might help us?.

    Hi,
    You can copy your Report Writer or Report Painter reports from Profit Center Accounting to new General Ledger Accounting. This is possible for standard reports as well as your own reports. A corresponding tool supports you in this.
    Prerequisites
    In classic Profit Center Accounting, you have standard reports or your own reports that you want to copy.
    To be able to use the Report Writer reports or the Report Painter reports in new General Ledger Accounting, you need to have assigned the scenario Profit Center Update to at least one ledger in Customizing for Financial Accounting (New).

    Hello Chinasammy,
    Report Painter allows you to create reports using data from SAP application components, which you can adapt to meet your individual requirements.
    Many of your reporting requirements can already be met by using the standard reports provided by various SAP application components. If these SAP standard reports do not meet your reporting needs, Report Painter enables you to define your specific reports quickly and easily.
    When executing a Report Painter report, it is displayed by the system in Report Writer format. You thus have access to the same functions as for Report Writer reports defined in the same way, and can combine Report Painter and Report Writer reports together in a report group.
    Report Painter uses a graphical report structure, which forms the basis for your report definition and displays the rows and columns as they appear in the final report output.
    To facilitate report definition, you can use many of the standard reporting objects provided by SAP (such as libraries, row/column models, and standard layouts) in your own specific reports. When you define a Report Painter report you can use groups (sets). You can also enter characteristic values directly.
    Advantages of Report Painter include:
    Flexible and simple report definition
    Report definition without using sets
    Direct layout control: The rows and columns are displayed in the report definition as they appear in the final report output, making test runs unnecessary.
    =============================================
    Below mentioned is the process for creating reports using Report Painter as a tool.
    Selecting and maintaining a library for your report: As the transfer structure to Report Painter you use a report table, which is defaulted by SAP and can not be maintained. This table contains characteristics, key figures and predefined columns. In a library, you collect the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns from the report table, which you need for your Report Painter reports.
    When you define a Report Painter report, you assign it to a library. Reports assigned to one library can only use the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for that library.
    When you create or maintain a library, the Position field determines the sequence in which the characteristics, key figures or (predefined) key figures appear in the Report Painter selection lists when you define a report. This allows you to position the objects that you use regularly in your reports at the beginning of the selection lists. If you do not make an entry in the Position field, you will not be able to use this object in Report Painter reports.
    You can use either the standard SAP libraries for your reports or define your own.
    (ii) Selecting or maintaining a standard layout for your report: Standard layouts determine report layout features and the format of your report data.If the SAP standard layouts do not meet your reporting requirements, you can create a new  standard layout or change an existing one.
    (iii) Defining row and column models: A model is a one-dimensional, predefined reporting structure that you can insert in either the rows or columns of your report.If you often use the same or similar row or column definitions in your reports, it is recommended that you create row or column models.
    You must define the row and/or column models that you want to include in your report definition before you define the report.
    You can also use the standard column models supplied by SAP.
    (iv) Defining the report: Defining a Report Painter report involves the following steps.
    (a) Define the report columns: You define the report columns using the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for the library that the report uses. Alternatively, you can use a column model for column definition. Column models are predefined column structures which you insert into your entire column definition, instead of defining each individual column.
    (b) Define the report rows: You define the report rows using the characteristics selected for the library selected for the report.
    Alternatively, you can use a row model for your row definition. Row models serve the same purpose as column models, but are used to define a report row.
    Edit and format the report rows and columns in line with your requirements. (For example, you can hide rows or columns, define the column width or define colors for your report rows).
    (iii)Define general data selection criteria for the selection of your report data: Selection criteria are the characteristics used to select data for the entire report. You cannot enter characteristics as data selection criteria if they are already being used in the report rows or columns.
    (iv) Assigning the report to a report group: Once you have defined a report, you must assign it to a report group. A report group can contain one or more reports from the same library. However, reports that share the same data will select data more quickly and improve processing time.
    Hopw this helps you. Please let me know if you need anything more and assign points.

  • Table used in report painter

    Hi,
    How to check what table is really used in a certain report painter.
    For my case, I want to a report 1KSL-001 under 1VK library, and I can see this 1VK library is using table "CCSS", but CCSS acctually is not a table, its just a structure.
    So, how to use what tables are used while running report 1KSL-001?
    Thanks.
    Cheers,
    Bernard Gunawan

    Yes, but how do you know and where to check that this report is a collection of fields of those tables?
    Could you please tell me what transaction code to check, and guide to what table behind a report painter?

  • No Program generated after creation of new report via Report Painter

    Hello,
    I have created a new report after copying an existing report from report painter GRR1. The new report has also been assigned to a new Report Group relevant to the same library.
    There is no Syntax error. The only change has been to the Title of the report.
    However when I am trying to execute the report nothing happens. ABAP found that no program has been generated by SAP for this mew rpeort. We confirmed this by searching with my user ID in table TRDIR.
    However there is no trace of it.
    We have tried to execute the report from GRR3 & GR53 (report group). The report & report group is having the same attributes as the old one.
    Unless the report is in executable stage we are not able to go to the Selection screen & finally from the Technical Information to the program name.
    Please could you let me know what can be the possible cause for this & how can we resolve the same.
    Thanks & Regards
    Shreenath

    @JoeSchmoe115:  Thanks for your suggestion.  Using a web service or WCF service would still mean dealing with potential timeouts for very large reports (granted you can adjust those timeouts).    
    I think an approach using a console app could work, but rather than having the web app spawn it, an alternative would be to do the following:  (1) have the web app insert report generation requests (including all necessary report parameters) into
    a database table, and (2) have a console app, periodically invoked by Windows Task Scheduler, which reads that database table and then uses the SSRS API as you describe to generate the report, save the byte stream to a file, and finally send
    the e-mail notification to the user.  
    mkedwards
    What you've described will work but saving report generation requests in separate table may not be necessary. I don't have much experience with web services but can they just spawn C# console app with needed parameters and exit without waiting for console
    app to complete?
    The positive side of using database to store report generation requests is that you would have complete log of all requests. Your console app can then update database with completion status.

  • Creation of report using more than 1 table

    Hi,
    We need to create a report pulling profit center data from GLPCT as well as cost center data from COSS & COSP. Is it possible to do this using report painter?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Sangeeta

    Hi,
    That's possible only if you define a special table, which will be extracted from these three. Report tables are defined via GRCT transaction. You will require the help of your BASIS team to do so.

  • How to use Value Variable in Report Painter Column defined as Formula

    Hi Gurus,
    In report painter, how can I add one field (exchange rate) in selection screen, so that user can provide the exchange rate to be used, then execute the report, the exchange rate will used to multiple local currency amount.
    The reason for this is we want use provided exchange rate to convert the amount from once currency to the other currency.
    Alternatively I am studying the functionality of "Value Variable" and found that I can perform the task from this. I have created the value variable but when I am using the variable in Report Painter columns as "&ZVALVAR", system is giving me error. I read the help and it states that use the variable with "&" and do it as it is mentioned.
    Can anybody suggest what I need to do to make it workable.
    Thanks

  • Use of Constants in Report Painter

    Dear All,
    I am designing a report in Report Painter. For this, I need to introduce a line with constant value in every column. I need this value to be subsequently used in formulae.
    Is this possible. What is the use of a 'Constant'. I created a Constant, but am not able to bring it in the report.
    Please help. Full points would be awarded..
    Thanks

    Hi Kash,
    Thanks for your reply..
    Can you elaborate bit further. You mean to say I should create a Constant with some value.
    Thereafter how should I bring that in the form. But, How do I enter the Constant in the Formula... There is no key for entering any text in the formula.. there are only ID (the values which we bring in the form and which can be selected for the formula) and numbers which can be entered.
    So how do I enter the name of the Constant?
    I tried just keying in the name of the Constant, and I could check the formula also, However, while saving the form, I am getting an error,
    Element WCaplimit Bis letztem ATag bis &$BISD is not defined correctly -> check definition
    Message no. KH206

    I am designing the P&L report and I want to split my R&D expenses split down by Internal Orders. Since, I have not seen Internal order field in summary table of new GL..ie., FAGFLEXT  table.
    I want to know how this can be achieved in the same report in report painter.
    I am talking this issue from Report Painter point of view where each report is based on library , which is defined per summary table.(ie., Library can refer to only one table....finding it odd to believe there is no join in reporting tool).....
    Thanks and let me know if you want to know more on the issue I am facing.

  • Report Painter - Use of Constants / Local Formula Variable

    Hi,
    I am using constant and/or local formula variable in report painter in FSI.
    I could use both the values for calculating percentages, ie. it can be used for multiplication or division. However, when I try to use it for addition or subtraction, I am getting the error message no. KH206.
    In all cases, I am using different values in the formula, i.e. a absolute figure and a GL based figure.
    I am not able to understand, why it even allows me for calculating percentage.
    Can anyone help me in using a absolute figure for input and thereafter use it in addition / subtraction.
    I would prefer an immediate solution to this as I am in the final stages of this report.
    Full points guaranteed.....
