Report Painter - Use SKF to calc act/plan unit costs in CCtr report

Hi Report Painter Gurus,
I am an end user working with our Report Painter consultant and I have asked for a Cost Centre report with columns for Actual Costs, Actual Unit costs, Plan costs, Plan Unit costs for Month and Cumulative. I have seen this report in my previous business so I know it can be done but consultant says it's impossible.
The report I previously used had the SKF values at the bottom of the cost centre report and then the unit costs columns (both actual and plan) referenced these SKF cells in the formula which divided Cost by SKF.
We have created the SKF using KK01 and posted dummy amounts in KB31N but consultant says he cannot reference the SKF values in the formlas.
If you can spell it out to me (I have dabbled in Report Painter myself), then I am sure I can explain it to consultant.
Any help gratefully appreciated!
Cheers,
Matthew.

Matthew,
I think it is quiet simple. When you add a column to the report painter report you can choose from the drop down menu for 'Basic Key figure' whether it is Costs, Activity quantity, Statistical quantities, etc.
So if you have a column with Costs (X1) and one more column with quantities (X2), you can easily come up with another 'formula' column and use the equation (X1/X2).
I think this should serve your purpose.
Best regards,
Vishal Thakur.

New Characteristic in Report Painter using table CCSS

Dear all,
Can someone help me add characteristic "Original Business Transaction" COBK-ORGVG into a report painter report that is using table CCSS.
Any help would be appreciated and points will be assigned.
Kind regards to all.
Orestis Chaitas

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.....

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 &$BISD is not defined correctly -> check definition
Message no. KH206
Diagnosis
In element WCaplimit Bis letztem ATag bis &$BISD the system adds quantities and values or different currencies.
Can you please revert back with step by step solution?
Appreciate your prompt reply.... Thanks

Report painter use for CO-PA

Hi Gurus,
I would like to set up segment reporting using Report painter. The format I would like is the segments going across at the top, with my accounts at the bottom. Can anyone help me with this
Regards
Johan

Hi,
add a characteristic "SEGMENT" and derive it using KEDR from Profit-center master data.
If you need the segment data for already posted CO-PA docs, try line item reposting (KE4S, KE4SFI,...); Maybe its necessary (depending on the number of line items) to use RKECADL1 (SAPNET 126937, 1405404).
Other possibility is to use the realignment functionality KEND to add the segment information to CO-PA data posted before the new characteristic is used.
Best regards, Christian

How do we track back the ABAP queries/report painter used to custom report?

Hi Experts,
I only have some ideas about report painter and ABAP query. If a company has a number of different Z reports in production.
1. How do we identify if it's report painter/writer or ABAP query??
2. For ABAP query report, suppose that i can identify one. If i am given a Z tcode of that report and identify the program of that report behind it, How do i know what query that program belongs to?? What are the steps i go back in SQ03 to view that query??
3. For report painter, starting from ztcode of the report, where do i check and track the original painter of that report??
Please help clarify my doubts..
Monica

Hi Monica,
For report painter/writer, you can identified it by go to
Environment --> Technical information when you execute your Z-tcode.
To refer back to the report painter/writer t-code you just need to double click oh the report group that you see by clicking the link above.
Thanks,
Victor.

Report Painter - How to identity statistical orders in a Cost Center Report

Hello,
currently I am in the process of building a cost center report based on reporting tabel CCSS.
This report should list all primary and secondary costs which are charged to a specific cost center/cost center group .
The cost center or cost center group is given in the general data selection.
All direct primary cost postings are identified in rows like this:
- Cost Element (SET): cost element group A1, A2,...Axx
- Business Transaction Type: COIN
All primary cost postings deriving from (real) internal orders are identified like this:
- Cost Element: 1 to 9999999999
- Business Transaction: KOAO
- Partner object number: 0 to 99999999
Now here is the problem:
The controlling department requests to identify all primary cost postings to the given cost center which have been postet to a statistical internal order at the same time. The most part of the primary costs have been directly postet to the cost center in the Additioanal Account Assignments. But some have been posted to the cost center and at the same time to a statistical internal order.
Looking into BSEG I can quickly identify these line items as they have a value in BSEG-KOSTL and BSEG-AUFNR.
How can I select these items in a report painter report?
I would like to separate all items whith connection to statistical int. orders from those with no connection to internal ordes.
Thanks for your help!

Dear Elli,
Dear SAP-Gurus,
once again, thank you for your quick reply.
You hints and remarks are very much appeciated.
My problem seems to be slightly more complicated than what I had expected.
All postings to the cost center/cost center group are actual postings. The cost center is the "real" cost element, there are no postings of value type 11 here.
Most postings have the cost center as the only cost element, but others additionally mention a statistical order.
My goal is to seperate those postings to the cost center [as (real) cost element] plus the statistical order from those with only the cost center.
I would also like to sort these postings by the order number.
I could easily write two reports:
One for the cost center and another one only for the statistical orders. The latter would use value type parameter 11 (as you proposed!). Unfortunately, I do not know all order numbers tied to the cost center. As table BSEG is not suitable for SAP Query, I run into deep problems here.
I know I have problem in the design of my report here and I would like to sort out, which options I have.
Is Report Painter a suitable tool for me here anyway?
Thanks again!
Karsten

Generate Data selection in Report Painter using Z fields

Hi all,
I had created Customer specific fields in project definition and now i want to use them in PS reporting.
I did what note 929889 say to do that, i created structure CI_CC1S and included my Z fileds. Then i entered GRCT and create a new entry: CCSS in field table and in Field name ZZDEPARTAMENTO.
I went to GR22 and modify 6P3 library to check this new characteristics.
In report writer i created the variable with a set , execute report and may new field appears in selection screen, the problem is that the program SAFK21R doesn't consider my new field in the selection so the display is wrong... what is missing? CAn any one help with this issue?
I think it's because structure CCR1S is empty in the Z fields.... what i need to create to report recognize z field as selection options.

Planned values of profit centers not showing up in customised report painte

Hi,
I made a customised profit center report via report painter. I have already uploaded planned values in KP06. In the customised report painter, the record type is "1" (plan) and version is "0" for actual/plan. The columns for the planned values do not show any figures. But when I generate std SAP report S_ALR_87013340 - Profit Center Group: Plan/Actual/Variance, it shows the plan values. In that way, I know that the cost center upload is correct.
Please advise on how to show the plan values on the report painter.
Thanks and best regards,
Thess

Hi,
ahhh...the fact that you can see the actual values has made me realize what the problem might be. GLPCP and GLPCA (actual line items) use different fields in regard to the period. I assume that you are utilizing the POPER characteristic to select the periods....correct?
In that case please try the following: copy library 8A3 into the customer name space (I would always base customized reports on your own library). In your copy activate the RPMAX characteristic. The re-create your report based on the new library and make the following changes: use RPMAX in the general selection and only use POPER in the column definition for the actual values. That should work.
Regards
Karl
P.S....hope you bear in mind that such a report is a potential performance nightmare.

I had made couple of SD reports in report painter 4 year ago .. as far as process is concern you have create library , but it deals with information structure which start with s0* , after defining information structure in library it take to select the fields and display them on your out put . information structure have the statistical data most of the time . As i worked on information structure , so31,32,33 .....
I t creates ABAP program like ABAP query creates in background . if you execute Customer Over due analysis or in Co02 cost analysis report or MC* ( MM stock reports ) those are in report painter .
Hope this'll give you some guide line ...
As far as I know about report painter, It create a report in background..Like when you make ABAP query (SQ01, 02, 03 ) .. It will create a report. You cant modify the report . You have to get OSS id in order to do that. if you're ready do it then you can pass it to Memory and can achieve your goal ...
I think it will give you some hint. I wish I could have authorization to use report painter on my this project so I can help you out practically.
Please see these steps , it`ll help you ...
http://www.thespot4sap.com/Articles/Code_CostCentreReport.asp
The variation objects are coming from the sets.
For example, when you read the report 'Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance'(T-code : S_ALR_87013611), you can find the characteristic 'Cost Center' is set as a 'set variable'. So the cost center in the report left side are coming from the cost center group that you input.
Does any know if we could use Report Painter across two controlling areas? Any documentation available will be great. Yes. When setting up a report in CCA you can have multiple controlling areas. In the General data selection you will have the option for the CA as a selection.
You can also use standard references objects to construct your own reports: libraries, standard layouts, default columns, and row and column models, all in the standard R/3 System, are available for custom reports.
Report Painter report definition requires several Preparatory Steps, depending on the complexity of the report to be generated.
1) Create a library and pick your reporting tables.
2) Create your report
3) define your set up within the report
a)General data selections
b)Colimns
c) rows
d) formulas
Standard layouts are maintained in the IMG "Financial Accounting" under "Special Ledger -> Information System -> Maintain standard layout.
Create libraries, which means assigning the
characteristics
key figures
Predefined columns
For each of these categories you need to select the objects to be used in reports of the specific library. You define the sequence of the objects in the selection lists of the Report Painter in field "Position". Frequently used objects should be at the top of the list.

Is it possible to make bigger the text a I have on a text field?, Im using the screen painter and I need to put the title bigger (as a requirment).
You can define your text as any length.If you are talking about the font,i am afraid you cannot do that.
No, you can not change the size(font) of the text on the dynpro, you can hightlight it, which changes the color to "blue" to make it stand out. You can change this on the attributes tab when double-clicking on the element in screen painter.
what is the sentence that open a screen painter file
Don´t really understand what you mean with "open a screen painter file".
If you are speaking about showing a form generated with the screen painter,
Dim oXMLDoc As New MSXML2.DOMDocument
oXMLDoc.load("Form.xml")
SBO_Application.LoadBatchActions(oXMLDoc.xml)
Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.Item("YourFormID")
oForm.Visible = True
