Downloading reports

Hi guys,
I have been browsing through this forum for quite a while to find if people also have problems with downloading reports, but I can't find any. The problem is that whenever I download one of my reports (in excel or excel 2000) my numbers are not seen as numbers or currency by excel and I cannot change them afterwards. This means I can't do any calculations on the data after exporting.
The only work-around is by importing as CSV but then I also have to regroup text to columns before I can edit the data.
Is there anyone with the same problems, and does anyone know how I can tackle this issue?
Thanks in advance!
Vincent

Well we also need to send our reports to different departments after we've downloaded them. Since they work with excel we need to deliver them in a certain format which isn't possible now. I've tried several different formats and I can 'replace all' currency signs and then use the data but this is not very user friendly at the end of the day.
But thanks for your reaction!

  • Downloading report from a Tabular form

    Hi,
    I enabled the CSV output as ON in a tabular form to download the report. But the downloaded report has an extra new line (break) after the header and there is an extra column
    at the beginning of each record ( may be due to the check box line selector). Please advice me how to download the report without extra line after the header and extra column at the beginning of each line.
    Thanks,
    Raj

    Export file looks ok for me for a tabular form with checkboxes for row selection.
    If want to exclude the checkbox column(or any othe report column) from the export file, go to the *"Report attributes" -> "Column Attributes" (of that column) -> "Include In Export"* field choose "No"

  • Misalignement in Excel sheet,while downloading reports with huge data

    Hi,
    While downloading reports in excel with huge volume of data ,we are getting misalignments in the excel sheet(some data comes in wrong rows). Can you please suggest what could be the reason and how to correct it.
    Regards,
    Roopak

    Hi,
    If you are using Office 2003, then you cannot download morethan 65000+. However if you use Office 2007, I think it gives you somewhere around 400000 records. (I didnt scroll below that!!!). Also the columns are morethan IV.
    However assuming that, even that version can have limitation, you can always download your data in a wordpad/notepad/textpad etc which are basically text editing tools. They dont have any such row or column restrictions.
    Once downloaded, you can randomly split them into some x number of files, based on the number of records and then open the same documents using xls sheet using tab value as delimiter. Now the alignment will be perfect in the excel sheet.

  • Reg. Download Report on IT0759

    Hi,
    We have a requirement wherein
    The Master Data maintained in IT0759 (Compensation Process) is to be paid to the employees as VCPI payment or IPI payment in the relevant quarters.
    The amount mentioned in this Infotype is entered and sanctioned bya team which later requires the details to be sent to Payroll Section for processing in the current payroll.
    Thus based on the selection made in the entry screen of the Report, we need a download report which could be as an input for Payroll Processing.
    An LDB screen to fetch the selection criteria.The selection screen should have six fields namely country grouping, pernr,personnel area,plan name,plan period and payroll area. All the fields available in the window Compensation Process and Bonus Payment Data should be downloaded onto the Report.   
    Any pointers as to how to proceed or any sample code in this regard will be helpful.
    Thanks in advance,

    When downloading reports from a web template, in either Excel or CSV, some values are getting converted to scientific notation in the downloaded file. I am wondering if there is a setting which prevents any data to be converted to scientific notation when downloading. The data appears to be fine when viewing the report in Web.

    Please, let us know how we can overcome this i.e. we don't want the links to get downloaded along with the columns.
    Thanks.

    Found the answer. You cant have format mask on the number or date column. I am assuming it is looking for a number and you are returning a string.

  • Printing and downloading report via BUTTONs

    Hi,
    I want to be able to allow my users to download a report in PDF format using a button... or... be able to print the report using another button... I know these are built in features in interactive report but want to do the same using a button...
    please advice how to do it...
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Interactive report uses the page request to download report, for example if your page request if CSV it will download report as CSV file, if its PDF it will download as PDF file.
    1. Click on create button, select a region and click next
    2. Accept default and click next
    3. Enter the name of the button, select button type and in the action select "Redirect to URL without submitting page " then click next
    4. Accept default and click next
    5. Select display position (usually I pick right of interactive report search bar) and click next
    6. Select target as Page in this application (default selected)
    7. Enter "&APP_PAGE_ID." in the page text box , in the Request use CSV for csv download, PDF for pdf download.
    8. Click on create buttonRun the page and you should able to download the IR report using button. Thanks.
