Report Painter for GR55 report

Hi
I am changing the formula of one cell of one column in report painter type report. what is happening with my report there are FIVE columns of profit center AND one TOTAL column , every column has 10 rows, there are three rows of total revenue , gross profit and % value of , Gross profit / Total revenue. this % figure is correct for above mentioned five columns but for total column , it is adding horizontally all the five % figure and gives the %GP figure , which is incorrect, it should be TOTAL OF GROSS PROFIT / TOTAL OF REVENUE in TOTAL column itself. now formula for total column for total revenue or gross profit are correct as it is adding horizontally and giving the total, but for only one cell of the column that is GP % in TOTAL COLUMN needs to be changed, HOW it can be done ?
Thanks
Deepak

You can not change a particular cell only in report painter.

Report Painter for PP reports

Hi there ,
Can any one please help me in learning how we can prepare reports using report painter ... please share with me the any learning document & resource from where I Can learn the same ...
Secondly, do we use report painter for PP rather SCM reports ... I have seen in all the cases it is being used in FI reporting ...
Thanks
Kaushik

Dear,
Most of the PP reports are for internal purpose so we never use the report painter.
Report painter is available for FI module.
Report painter is generally used for reporting from totals tables. Your requirement looks more like a query from master data tables. For this you'd better use SAP query (SQ01) or Quick Viewer (SQVI).
Please refer the below is the links to Report Painter

Hi
i am sending you a sample of how to createa report in report painter follow it,
Main Steps in Creating a Report Using Report Painter
The illustration below shows the main steps in creating a report with Report Painter:
In this section, you learn how to create a Profit Center Accounting (PCA) report with Report Painter.
For these sample reports, you should focus on the tables that correspond to the SAP application areas with which you are working. The examples shown in this section have been created in Release 4.6C.
Sample Report for Gross Profit Margin
Bungee Corporation wants to use Report Painter to create a gross margin report. This Profit Center Accounting report uses data table GLPCT. The desired PCA report displays the gross margin for each profit center.
Below is an illustration of the completed gross margin report.
Prerequisites to Creating a Report with Report Painter
Before you can create a report with Report Painter, you need to:
     Determine the table
     Find the library
     Create sets
     Create variables
The following sections explain these prerequisites.
Determine the Table
Before you can start creating the report, you must decide on the table you need to use. In this example, we use table GLPCT in Profit Center Accounting.
Find the Library
Determine the library you want to use for the desired table.
If you need to create a library, on the SAP Easy Access screen, either:
     From the navigation menu, choose SAP menu → Information systems → Ad hoc reports → Report painter → Report Writer → Library → Create.
     In the Command field, enter transaction GR21 and choose .
In our example, we use existing library 8A2 for creating a report.
Create Sets
Create the required sets for your report. To create a set, on the SAP Easy Access screen, either:
     From the navigation menu, choose SAP menu → Information systems → Ad hoc reports → Report painter → Report Writer → Set → Create.
     In the Command field, enter transaction GS01 and choose .
Note that this procedure is not necessary for creating the report given in the example that follows.
Create Variables
Create any variables for the fields that must be entered before the report is executed. To create a variable, on the SAP Easy Access screen, either:
     From the navigation menu, choose SAP menu → Information systems → Ad hoc reports → Report painter → Report Writer → Variable → Create.
     In the Command field, enter transaction GS11 and choose .
Note that this procedure is not necessary for the sample report in the next section.

c.     Enter the values for each field. (For example, the standard ledger for PCA is 8A to 8E and the U.S. company code in IDES is 3000. This example is a year-to-date report, so all 12 periods are in the range. The standard Version in PCA is 0, the Record type for actual dollars is 0, and CO is 2000).
d.     To check the selections, choose Check.
e.     To create the definition for the general data selection for the report, choose Confirm.

Understanding the Report List
After executing a Report Painter report, several additional functions can be applied to the output to make your reports as meaningful as possible. You can:
     Sort on each column.
     Highlight rows that meet the threshold criteria, for example any amount greater than 6,000.
     Drill down from any line item. Drilling down you can access ABAP programs, transaction codes, SAP Queries, drilldown reports, or other Report Painter and Report Writer reports.
     Launch SAP Graphics.
     Send the report through SAP mail.
     Save as an extract to be brought up later.
     Expand and collapse rows.
     Change the layout settings.
     Display the report in Microsoft Excel with office integration.
hope this gives you an idea, and send me an email to [email protected] i will send you a doc on it,

Authorization-check in company code for GR55 reports

Hi to all!
Created User: ZTESTUSER
The scenario is this.
We created a report in GR55(Report Painter) and we want users (ex. ZTESTUSER) to access only company codes 7000 to 7999. How will I be able to do that?
I am thinking of creating a role or profile then assign it to the user, but I was not be able to locate an authorization object for GR55 reports.
The authorization object in GR51 is not doing what we want. It only control the create/change/display and execution transactions.
I tried using validation in GGB0 but I can't find a parameters where the GR55 reports will be checked so the users will be limited by company code.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks a lot.

I programmed a company code check for a report like this.
===========================================================
data: lv_text(4) type c.
if p_bukrs is not initial.
    select single * from T001
                  where bukrs = p_bukrs.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      message e321(FR) with p_bukrs.
    endif.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'F_SKA1_BUK'
    ID 'BUKRS' field T001-BUKRS
    ID 'ACTVT' field '03'.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      clear lv_text.
      lv_text = p_bukrs.
      message e800(FR) with p_bukrs.
    endif.
endif.
============================================================
but I was not able to do that in GR55 reports because the program is automatically generated by SAP named GPXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.

Report Painter for all module

Hi,
Is report painter can be use by MM,PP,SD module ?
in ECC6, we can use report painter for module FI, how about module MM,SD and PP ?
if it can use for those module too, how is the step?

Hello Callia Raissa,
Yes report writer can be used in logistics also. One of the way which I am aware of is described below.
Flexible analyses allow you to can tailor the way in which key figures are combined and aggregated. This means that it is possible to both provide administrators with detailed information and management with aggregated information.
Flexible analyses enable easy access to the Report Writer, a user-friendly tool with which you can create reports for various analyses. The Report Writer is integrated in other SAP applications, such as Extended General Ledger and Cost Center Accounting.
Evaluation structures form the interface to the Report Writer. Evaluation structures consist of characteristics and key figures and are easy to construct.An evaluation structure with the same name exists for each information structure in the standard system.Even the self-defined information structures created in Customizing can be evaluated via the flexible analyses.
Evaluations:You can create an evaluation on the basis of the evaluation structure.
To define an evaluation, all you need to do is select the characteristics and key figures you require (pick-up technique).One of the especially useful features here is that you have the option of tailoring the layout of your report to suit your particular requirements. You can also define extra key figures for the reports, which are derived from existing key figures by means of calculation formulas. You can thereby multiply the key figures or divide one key figure by another.
============================================================
In addition to the above you can also edit a report in logistics module with the help of a report writer. below mentioned is the process for it.
It is now possible to edit your report data using the Report Writer. You can also change the layout of the report. The most important functions of the layout design are summarized below.
Summation levels:In the report screen, you can use the menu sequence View ->Summation level to specify the number of summation used to calculate total values. All totals that do not lie within the specified interval will be hidden. A summation level corresponds to a hierarchical level (for example, material level). Summation level 1 is the lowest hierarchical level. Summation level 2 is the next level up, and so on. The individual values are on the summation level 0.
The summation levels can be specified both universally (for the entire report) or locally (for specific blocks of rows). In this case, the local settings overwrite global values.
Report views:If a report is displayed on the screen, the Report Writer will then set page breaks so that exactly one page fits into the current window. This view will be defined as the standard view. As the Report Writer always processes exactly one page, you can only use the page keys and page icons to page up and down; the scroll bars cannot be used.
The page view can be determined via Settings-> Page view. The page breaks in the page view correspond to those defined in the report layout.
Hide and show rows:The function Edit->Hide rows exclude certain preselected areas of your report from the display. You can undo this command with Edit ® Show rows.
Expanding and collapsing report rows:View-> Hierarchy->Collapse allows you to hide the report rows of the sub-trees that are located underneath. View->Hierarchy ->Expand allows you to undo this command level by level.
If you want to display all the report rows that were hidden by collapsing the hierarchy or restricting the summation levels, select, View->Hierarchy-> Expand all.
View->Collapse all allows you to reduced every row block to the highest summation level.
Texts and Annotations:You can create an annotation for your report.
Select: Extras->Annotation.
You branch into the text editor of the Report Writer.
Via the menu sequence Settings->Texts, you can create and format a title page, the last page, as well as headers and footers using word processing functions.
For example, you can store variables in the header for the author of the report, the date of the selection or the name of the person who last changed the report.
Layout parameters:Using the menu sequence Settings->Layout you can specify the page format, display form, rows and columns of the report according to your needs and you can determine the settings for the graphics function. You can make these layout settings with Report->Save settings.
Hope I had been able to help you to some extent. please assign points as reward.

Report Painter for PS

Hi Exports.
    I'm trying to make a report for PS with Report painter.
    The report layout requests :
    Row : activity types. set to exploded.
    Column : activity types' quantity, activity types' cost
    The purpose of this report is to see how many activities are spend by a project.
    I copy a new library from 6P3
    and set the OBJNR as selection date.
   The report runs normally but the result is not correct.
    The activity types's item lines can't be displayed,but a sum line.
    I do set the row setting to exploded....
   Is it really possible to see a project cost per activity type by report painter?
   or i made some mistake...

Report Painter versus ABAP Report

Hi everyone:
Can someone tell me what are pros and cons of developing OR Running reports in Report Painter?
Secondly can someone tell me when should one develop reports in ABAP and when should one develop reports in Report Painter?
Thanks in advance
R

Almost the entire SAP R3 System is written in ABAP u2013 including the Report Painter.
The Report Painter is a tool for the end user to create evaluation reports without having to involve the IT Department. He therefore has the information he requires within the limitations of the Report Painter very quickly. No programming involved.
An ABAP Report has to be written by a programmer/developer. It takes much longer, has to be tested, and, when everything is okay, be transported into the production system. This is time consuming and expensive. The report may have to modified at a later date u2013 again by a programmer/developer, which in turn also costs more time and money. A report created using the Report Painter can be modified or created immediately by the end user, i.e. low costs, immediate results.
I hope this clarifies the matter.

Functional report specifications for AUC reporting

Hi All,
Does anyone have a sample document about functional report specifications for
AUC reporting?

Hi,
Looking at the requirement it seems like you have 2 level of authorization check i.e. Check first user is authorized for cost center. And if yes then look for teh combination of Func area related to that cost center, for that user.
I think keeping the second check for func. area within loop of cost center (for each cost center) should work.
Thank-You.

Hi kalpesh ,
According to your description, you want to display a report which hasn’t been deployed to report server in ASP.NET MVC app, right?
If so, you can add a ReportViewer control in ASP.NET MVC and utilize ADO.NET to provide the data to display the report. For more information, please refer to this article:
ASP.NET MVC - Handling SSRS reports with ReportViewer – Part I.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
