Report Painter - Key Figures in Lead Column

Hello -
I am trying to create a report painter report.
I would like the key figures in the lead column, but right now, I can only choose characteristics.
Anywho know how to be able to select a key figure in the lead column?
Thanks

Hello,
You have to activate key figure in the library you are using. Use transaction GR22. To activate key figure, juct mark the checkbox.
Hope this would help.
regards,
Jhero

Re: Report Painter Diff. formula in same column.

Hi,
I have some queries for report painter.
I have 2 columns, A & B. I've created column C and the first 5 row I would like to have a set of formula such as A10 and for the same column, the row 6 to 10 from column B, I want to have formulate B5-10.
My question is, whether it's posible to have 2 formula defined in the same column because value for each row may need to apply the formula differently.
Thx & Rgds

You can do this, although you need to split the columns into "Sections". You also need to remove the column headers so they are not repeated between each section.
They almost act similar to a page break, without actually breaking the column over pages.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47X200/helpdata/EN/c7/50673ad016ec32e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47X200/helpdata/EN/5b/d22d8a43c611d182b30000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
You can then have different calculated key figures within the same column.
To amend sections, go to Formatting > Section Overview/Section Layout.

Report painter-want to hide period columns dynamically if the period is not closed

Hi All,
I have made report with 12 columns like JAN, FEB till DEC in report painter (GRR1)
Requirement is that if say, currently only period no.4(APR) is closed and we are in period no.5( MAY) or system date is in MAY, then the report should not show the data for the current period no.5(MAY), eventhough data is there. Or else it should show data for JAN to APR (closed periods)
For this I defined 12 different period formula variables in GS11, based on system paramters like
S008 Year (from Local System Date)
S002 Month (from Local System Date)
S003 Day of Month (from Local System Date)
S012 Current Period in Current Year (per CO Fiscal Yea
But the issue is that eventhough the variable is defined as formula variables, still the default values are given by system and default value only getting passed to the report and thus data is displayed for the unclosed period.
But SAP help says that formula variables are without default values unlike the value type variable.
Any help in this will be highly appreciated.

Hi All,
I have cracked it and got the solution with redefining the formula variables.

Report Painter - Add PS master data columns

Dear Experts,

I will wish now create columns containing master datas of the PS objects :
For definition of the project, WBS Elements and networks

These elements are currently only available individually via GOTO menu -> display master data but we wish know if it is possible to put it on colums (for export by excel, HTLM, ...)
Thanks for your assistance.

Hi Sreekanth,
Thanks for your answer.
I know that we can found these informations via CN41N or CN43N and export it to Excel, but I try to put these informations in colums in my Report Painter. Can you say me if it is possible ?

How to bring all columns in a single/first page in report painter

Hi Experts,
There are 9 columns in a report painter which includes 1 lead column.
7 columns comes in a first page including lead column and rest 2 columns goes to second page. This report is copied from another report where all columns comes in a first page only. if the original report comes in one page then why not the new report.
Please suggest how to bring all columns in a single/first page in the new report.
Please revert if I'm confused anywhere.
Thanks in advance
Arabinda

Hi Rajneesh,
Thanx for the quick reply. When I change the column width to 10 it comes in one page. But the requirement is to keep the column width to at least 12 or 14 and moreever the original report from where this report is copied having the same no of columns and the column width for original report is 14 and it comes in one page only.
Do I need to do something more to achieve this. My question is how the original reports data comes in one page where as the current report having issue with same number of columns.
Pls suggest.
Thanx,
Arabinda

Dynamic Lead Columns

We have a requirement where users need to enter 3 Key figure values for 3 periods against 0MATERIAL. The layout should show as follows:
MaterailKeyFigureMonth1Month2Month3
SKU1----KF125--20----20
SKU1----KF25 USD-5 USD---6 USD
SKU1----KF32---2-----2
SKU2----KF150--15----5
Planning level contains, 0MATERIAL, 0FISCPER3 and the three Key figures. In the manual planning layout, I have selected "Key Figures in Lead Column" with 0MATERIAL in the lead column and 0FISCPER3 in the data column. In the additional settings, I have chosen "From Transaction Data" and "Lead Columns Dynamic for" 0MATERIAL - Text Replacement "Key". In the next step, I have entered the three key figures and checked the "Dynamic" checkbox. In the data columns I have selected the required 0FISCPER3. Executing this layout is resulting in a dump with the "MESSAGE_TYPE_X" C "SAPLUPP_PLAN" or "LUPP_PLANU05" "UPP_PLAN_COMPLETE_LAYOUT" and "layout_Corrupt". What am I doing wrong here?
I need the layout to show as represented above. How do I achieve the desired result? I will assign points for the helpful posts.

Partially resolved. It looks like I need to restrict 0MATERIAL in the planning level if I use "Dynamic" option!! I have used the ROOT node of the hierarchy on 0MATERIAL in the planning level and I am able to open the template. BUT THE MAIN PROBLEM IS STILL UNRESOLVED. I want the layout to show
HeadingMonth1Month2--Month3
SKU1KF125--20----20
SKU1KF25 USD-5 USD---6 USD
SKU1KF32---2-----2
SKU2KF150--15----5
SKU2KF21 USD-3 USD---2 USD
But it show up as follows:
HeadingMonth1Month2--Month3
SKU1KF125--20----20
SKU2KF150--15----5
SKU1KF25 USD-5 USD---6 USD
SKU2KF21 USD-3 USD---2 USD
I need to have the rows ordered by SKU and not by Key figures. Hope my explanation is clear. I will assign points to the helpful posts.
PS - I can move Months into "Lead Columns" and "Key Figures" into Data Columns so that the Key Figures are there all by themselves, but that is not an option either.

Two Key figures in Report Painter column?

Dear Experts,
We have some company codes with group currency setup and others without this. I have created a report painter report with table GLT0. I want ability to produce a consolidated report for all the company codes.
However, when I define the report column, I can only select one basic key figure in the column viz. HSL - Local currency or KSL - Group currency for example. In my report I have selected HSL since majority of the company codes report on local currency.
Is there a way that the program can be told to change the basic key figure during report execution to KSL - Grp Curr for select company codes only?
Or is there a way to have two basic key figures in a report painter column? I know I sound foolish on this question. But still I ask this.
Any thoughts, pls share with me. Thanks.
Vishal Thakur

You are right Sue. But unfortunately way back in the 90's when our company implemented SAP, those company codes did not activate the 2nd LC as USD. Thus, these companies only have figures updated in the 1st LC which is USD.
Subsequently, we acquired new companies overseas and then for these co's we switched on the 2nd LC as USD with the 1st LC as the country specific currency.

Key figures in rows and columns at same time

Dear experts,
I'm making a report in HR in Bex query Designer 7.0.
I have most of my key figures in the row, but for my structure in my row, i need a key figure in the column. As you already might know, you cannot do this just by drag and drop. But i was wondering if there's a way to do this anyway? and if so, how?
thanks in advance,
Jessica

I have in the row
a structure:
exits - end of contract
exits - voluntary
exits - unvoluntary
key figures
And in the column i need the key figure: number of actions
-> this tells me how many of the sort exit their are in the specified period.
And the other keyfigures need to be in the row.
So i don't know how to solve this
Edited by: Jessica on Mar 19, 2008 12:07 PM

Is it possible to format a column to represent more than one key figure?

Is it possible to have a column called "Forecast" and then position both revenue and cost key figures in the column in BEx?
For example:
type      forecast   actual
revenue 90,000    95,000
costs     80,000    85,000

hi,
if you use structure you cannot have key figures in the column

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.
