Merge cells in CO-PA report by report painter tool!
Hi all,
I am using report painter to define reports in CO-PA.
But I wonder how to merge cells in the header row in CO-PA report?
For example:
Column 1: Revenue/ value
Column 2: Revenue / total quantity
Column 3: Cost of Good sold/ value
Column 4: COGS/ total quantity
Row 1: Total quantity
Row 2: Mogas
Row 3: Gas
Now, I want merge column 1 and 2 to Revenue, then split that merged column into 2 sub columns: value, value/total quantity.
I want merge column 3 and 4 to COGS, then split that merged column into 2 sub columns: value, value/total quantity.
How can I do that?
Thanks for any suggestion!

I am very sorry. I made a mistake.
Column 1: Revenue - value (usd)
Column 2: Revenue / total quantity (usd/liter)
Column 3: Cost of Good sold - value (usd)
Column 4: COGS/ total quantity (usd/liter)
Any idea will be highly appreciated.
Thanks for any help!

Can't merge cells in Report Designer
Hi!
I use Report Designer.
I have 3 rows and 5 columns in the Header/Footer.
I can't merge cells, for example cells from 2nd row, 2-4th columns.
I need this format:
AAA | BBB | DDD | EEE | FFF
ssss | ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff | gggg
aaaaa| nnnn | mmm | kkk
What can I do?Hi,
Actually you can merge the Cells in Header and Footer. Just that, I think you have older version of the Report Designer.
In 7.10 GUI Release there is now an option to Merge and Unmerge Cells in Header and Footer.
Please check the Report Designer Version from HELP about. It should be atleast 7.1 with Front End Patch level 5 and Above.
I have the same Issue. My Version of RD which is for Release 2004s it does not work but on another machine with GUI 7.1 it works so check that out.
Hope it helps. -
How to merge cells in report designer
Hello BW Experts,
How to merge cells in report designer.
Thanks in advance
BWerHi BWer,
I had to check for some details from Development.
You also need to have FEP 14 for the BI 7.x tools on SAP GUI 6.40, which was just released on Friday. You can find it at service.sap.com/swdc. In the format menu, you will now see a "Link Cells" option.
With the link cells option, you cannot merge across row patterns. That means that you will probably have to make some changes to your report before you can merge the cells, based on what you described.
I imagine that you started out with a report section something like the following (dashes added for formatting purposes):
G0 Header ...
G1 Header -
Controlling Area
Detail -
Func Area
And then moved controlling area to the right to the same column as functional area:
G0 Header ...
G1 Header -
Controlling Area
Detail -
Func Area
Resulting in an output that would look like:
CA1000
FA ABCA
FA ABCB
FA ABCC
CA2000
FA ABCA
FA ABCB
FA ABCC
As shown above, these cells cannot be merged because they cross row patterns. You would instead need to move the controlling area member down to the same row as functional area:
G0 Header ...
G1 Header
Detail -
Controlling Area Func Area
You can now merge these cells, resulting in an output that would look like the following:
CA1000 FA ABCA
CA1000 FA ABCB
CA1000 FA ABCC
CA2000 FA ABCA
CA2000 FA ABCB
CA2000 FA ABCC
To merge the cells, you would simply highligh both cells with your cursor and then select the option from the menu.

Merging Cells in Report Designer
Hi,
according to SAP Documentation http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/d7/6b9b41aa6ca309e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
it shall be possible to merge cells within Report Designer. However I have tried it on several ways but was never able to find this functionality.
Also I can not find many other of those cell properties described in the link above. Woeking with Frontend Patch 7, Revision 61
Any help is highly appreciated.
AndreasHi,
FYI. I am able to merge cells in the Report Designer by selecting multiple cells, and then selecting 'Merge Cells' from the context sensitive menu. I am using the latest SP for ABAP, JAVA, and front-end.
An alternative to merging cells is merging texts within one cell. This will often do.

Report Designer : merging cells
Hi,
I have a report with a block of information and after that block -lower on the same page- the results. So in fact it looks like a 3.5 BEx query result in Excell with a navigation block at the top of the page and the results below that navigation block.
Unfortunately some colums in the resultgrid are smaller than the texts in the navigation block. Because of that, the content (texts) on the navigation block are cut off.
I would like to merge cells so that the texts of the navigation blocks are not longer cut off (like in Excell: when a cell contains a very long text and the neighbour-cells at the right are not filled, the text appears above the other cells).
Anybody an idea to merge cells in the Report designer?
Kind regards,
BartHello Bart
Merging of Cells is currently not possible with Report Designer. It is planned to be available with support stack 14.
Please have a look a the BI Functional Enhancements Schedule on the service marketplace (s-user required):
<a href="http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700004483762006E">service.sap.com/bi -> Functional Enhancements Schedule BI in NW2004s</a>

Excel export are merging cells for data on multiple lines !
Hello,
I'm using Crystal Report XI R2, when we are doing an export to Excel with have an unexpected formatting.
For example the value of the name is on 2 lines:
=> So, on Excel the result is on 2 lines but merged. We want to have this result only on one cells.
Remark: if we delete the 2nd lines, because cells are merged we obtain the expected result.
Proposal A:
Are they any set-up available concerning the formatting of Excel ?
Proposal B:
Could we run some VBA when we click on Export button to make queries on the Excel ?When they introduced Unicode support in Crystal 9 (I believe), they had to completely re-write the export routines. At that time, they made a decision to change the functionality of the excel export. Crystal is attempting to remain absolutely faithful to the graphical layout of the report as you see it in the viewer. So it creates merged cell sections, empty columns between columns, and empty rows to give you as close to exactly what you see in the viewer as possible. Unfortunately, the result is typically less than useful. Iu2019ve had several conversations with Business Objects (now SAP) with regards to this when they changed it between versions 8.5 and 10, and they have no intention of changing the functionality as it now exists.
There is a document which is now likely somewhere on the SAP portal that explains what you need to do to obtain the best results when exporting to excel.
The jist of it is this:
Line up all of the columns detail data with thier headers, and make sure that data fields are the same size as thier headers.
Line up all rows (headers and detail rows). (ie: select everything in the row, right click, align tops, and make the same height)
cram everything as close together as possible. zero space in the report translates to zero extra collumns and rows in the export.
the other option is to use the export to data only functionality, but that may not be what you're looking for either. -
Excel Merge Cells.vi throws an undefined error in Excel 2013?
Basically, I can't write text into an Excel spreadshoot using the Report Generation tools.
Using LabVIEW 2013 (SP1) I am writing to individual cells in an Excel (2013) template.
The error is coming from the Report Generation Toolkit>Excel Specific>Excel Easy Text.vi.>Excel Merge Cells.vi.
Inside of the "Excel Merge Cells.vi" is an "Invoke Node.Range". When the program hits this point, it throws out an undefined error.
My code has been running on multiple platforms in multiple programs with no problems using Office 2010.
NASA upgraded our Office Suit to 2013. I am now throwing an undefined error ( -2146827284).
I've got a service request in and have talked to an engineer. THey are looking at the problem. However, I thought I would throw it out here and see if anyone had seen this particular problem.
Bryan AlexanderProblem found, workaround implemented.
When you use the "New Report.vi", you have to wire in one of four choices for the state of the window. "Maximized", "Minimized", "Normal" and "No Change". If you use the "Excel Easy Text.vi" to insert data into an Excel 2013 Spreadsheet, it will generate an error if you opened the Excel file in "Minimized" mode. The other three states work fine. -
Hello gurus.
Please help me with merging cells.
I need to merge some cells in alv grid. To create grid i use reuse_alv FM. For example it is needed to merge all cells in several rows. What should i do ? I think that there should be some manipulations with fieldcatalog but i don't know the correct ones.

Table cells - Problem with merged cells
Hi
I was experiencing very weird behavior with my tables until I realized that it was caused by merged cells
My script gives a dialog which allows the user to choose from which column to start and from which row.
As the script iterates through the cells in the selection I was getting weird results
Through using .select() function I was able to see that depending on the column, some times row 5 could be which seems to be row 3!
The reason was because of merged cells in that row
I.e., when some cells are merged together, only the first column of those merged cells is recognized - the others are not
so it comes out that when merging cells from column 3 to 5, column 3 has a cell in that row, columns 4 and 5 do not, and column 6 does!
Is there a way to get around this behavior?
Thanks
DaveyI don't understand the point of your post.
If you're trying to report a problem or "bug" with Pages, that is not the purpose of this user-to-user forum. You should leave feedback for the Pages team on this page.
I've not had a problem opening Word files with tables in Pages. If you're saying Word can't handle tables with merged cells, then don't use merged cells in files you are going to export as Word. Word & Pages must handle merged table cells differently, as I know both can do that. As far as RTF, Pages can open & export as RTF. Again, if you are going to export as RTF, don't use tables. Neither of these is a fault of Pages, just limitations of the formats/programs. -
Dear experts,
I have a cross tab report with the following colums (two lines in the header):
Country | 2008 | 2010 | 2010 | 2010 |
Jan
Feb
Mar
Is it possible to have the cells with year "2010" merged having:
Country | 2008 | 2010 |
Jan
Feb
Mar
The months in year 2010 are dynamic, wich means the report will only show the months selected in the prompt variable.
Thank you!
My kind regards,
InêHey Inês,
Need clarity:
Per my understanding:
Add Row above on that header part and add object and apply Break and do merging cells.
So that you can see only one year, 2010 for all Months.
Below this add Month object.
Hope you got it.
Gracias...!! -
Include a Glossary Page in a Webi report for report documentation
Hi experts,
My client would like to include a Glossary Page at the start/end of each Webi report. This page should include documentation/explanation of each dimension detail, measure, formula, etc shown on the report.
I cannot find any designated location in the Webi report for documentation purpose. Assuming I have created this documentation in a word/html document, what is the easiest way of including this info in the Webi report?
So far I can think of 2 options:
1) Include a new report with one or more blank cells, and paste the text from the word/html document into the blank cell.
Pros: Can be printed out together with the report contents (print both reports together).
Cons: Considerable effort with creating this page
2) Include a blank cell in the original/separate report, and insert a hyperlink for this word/html document into the blank cell.
Pros: Less effort involved
Cons: Cannot be printed out together with the report contents
Besides these 2 options, are there better ways of creating the Glossary page?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
LindaWe do something similiar in that users cannot create a new document. Users can only copy and edit the existing template for new reports. The template has standard headers, footers and confidentiality statements that are required on all reports.
Here are some of the standard formulas we include in the header/documentation report tab:
="Report Title: "+DocumentName()
="Run User: "+CurrentUser()
="Run Date: "+LastExecutionDate()
=If (DocumentPartiallyRefreshed();"Your document contains partial data only")
=DocumentName()
=DataProviderSQL([Query 1])
These formulas automatically fill in some of the basic data using option 1 from your list. -

In XL Reporter the report template ER-1 is not working,
In XL Reporter the report template ER-1.ixr given by SAP is not working,
Error message displayed: "Error in Expansion" how to correct this problem
please give me the solution or mail me ER 1.ixr if you got working file, thank you
Regards
krish
mail id:[email protected]Dear Radhakrishnan,
This error has already been reported to SAP Support earlier also. It happens with SalesTaxRegister.ixr also and here is the solution for it :
Whenever the Xlreport "SalesTaxRegister.ixr" is executed from
XLReporter the error "Error in expansion" appears.
This error occurs because the report references two fields which do not
exist in the metadata.
Note: SalesTaxRegister.ixr is provided by SAP for Indian localisation.
To correct this problem, follow these steps:
1. Open the report definition in Excel.
2. Click menu 'Format > Column > Unhide' to unhide all columns. This
will make columns A to AC visible.
3. Delete the content in cells O15 and O25 (PO4_NonDdctPrc).
4. Hide columns A to AC again and save the report.
5. Try to run the report again.
The above solution will work for SalesTaxRegister.ixr report.
For the customized report which the partner must have
created, there would be some similar references that do not exist
in the metadata. Once these references are deleted the report will work
again.
For further information please have a look at the note : 1072702.
