Attachin Custom Table to Report Painter Library

Hi,
Im trying to create a new library in Report Painter (GR21) and attach it to a custom table.
I am getting the error message (GR493) that "the table is not installed in Report Writer - The Report Writer can only report on tables if the attributes of these tables that are relevant for reporting are defined in control tables"
Does anyone know what this means and how to get around it?
Thanks.

Hi,
You need to add the table as a report table in transaction GRCT "Report writer control tables".
Hope it helps!
Regards Rene

HI,
Can't we add any table in report painter library (GR21) like if i add s032 it is accepted by library while 'MARD' is not accepted it gives error Table MARD is not installed in Report Writer.
what is the difference between s032 and MARD table, as both are transparent table. but one is accepted and other is not.
Thanks

Hi
You can't use all tables.see the below lines for it:
Both Report Painter and Report Writer can be used to report on the following tables and tables types:
 Evaluation structures set up in the Logistics Information System (LIS). These structures normally begin with an S or ZF. Several different tables and views within the R/3 System can be added as evaluation structures.
Note: You cannot add cluster tables, such as BSEG.
CCSS is used for Cost Center Accounting (CO-CCA), Internal Orders (CO-OPA), Activity Based Costing (CO-ABC) and for cost element reports in Project Systems (PS).
GLFUNCT is used for functional area reporting in cost-of-sales accounting.
GLPCT and GLPCOP are used for Profit Center Accounting (CO-PCA/EC-PCA).
FILC is used for Legal Consolidations (FI-LC).
COFIT is used for the Controlling Reconciliation Ledger (CO-CEL).
ZZ tables are created for the Special Purpose Ledger (FI-SL).
FIMC is used for consolidations in the Enterprise Controlling module (EC-LC).
GLT0 is used for Financial Accounting (General Ledger) reports by account, company, and business area (FI-GL).
KKBC, KKBE, and KKBU are used for the Controlling Product Costing module (CO-Costing).

Joining the tables in report painter/writer

Friends,
Can we join tables in report painter / writer?
Regards
HK

Hello
table joining required if you want a report wherein you need field from more than one table with interlinked field. Then create infoset in SQ02 and use that infoset and create Query in SQ01 and design as per requirement. Abap coding also possible here
Report writer/pointer you can refer table for any feld requirement, no need to join thats only viewing
hope I answer u properly

Create a library which joins 2 tables that report painter can use.

Hi,
Please help in resolving following issue:
Create a new library that joins these tables (in client system) GLPCT and ZFKHALIX that report painter could use. If we had this then we can create a P&L report that properly breaks out COGS and SGA in the same way as ou khalix feed.It would also save a lot of time in month end reconciliation between two tables.
ZFKHALIX: SAP->Khalix Interface --- Custom Mapping Table (Developned)
GLPCT : EC-PCA: Totals Table (Standard Table)
Regards

Library can be created only with reference to a single table as in GR21. If you are looking for joins of tables, ABAP Query may be the answer. There, you have the infoset where you can join two or more tables. And based on the infoset you create queries.

Custom fields in Report painter in CCSS table

Hello Experts,
I am in a processes of developing a report painter with custom fields in the selection screen.
The custom fields are available in PRPS table.
With hard difficulties I brought the custom fields in selection screen of the report painter.
I have added the fields in the structure CI_CC1S
Everything is fine. But if I enter a value in the custom field, the report is not fetching any data.
These custom fields are related to the WBS element.
For example if the value of the CUSTOM field is 'AAA', then I want to retrieve ony the WBS element which has 'AAA'.
Somewhere I am missing a procedure.
Could anyone suggest how to achieve this.
Thanks !!!

Change Table in Report Painter

Hi Experts,
I have some Report Painter reports assigned to a Library. I would like to change the table. Is there a a way to change the table without re-writing the reports? I can add a new table, but do not know how to remove the existing table without affecting the report. Does any one have an idea? Please advice.
Thanks
Kingsley

Hi,
I would like to change the assignment of the form.
Yet it is assigned to a standard report and I would like to assign it to a report I have created.

BSEG table in Report painter

Hi All,
I want to create a report using a report painter. For this while creating library, i want to use the table BSEG.
But i am getting an error message "Table BSEG is not installed in report painter".
Then i used transaction MC27 and created Z structure from table BSEG. This solved my problem.
All this i was doing in ECC6.0 version.
Then i tried in 4.7 version, there table BSEG was already available to create a library.
Is it a version difference or we can can directly map standard tables also using transaction MC27 ?
But in ECC6.0, it was not allowing me map table BSEG using transaction MC27. I was getting message that "Evaluation structure name must be started with ZF"!!
Please help me in solving this puzzle!
Thanks
Puneet Aggarwal

Hi
This is version difference. In 4.7 Table BSEG not updated. In ECC 6 this problem solved.

Creating a new report painter library

Hi all
I have created a z table for the verification of FI-CO values to use with report painter. This table is modeled like the GLT0, the only difference is that my program fill it with the values of secondary cost elements (for production direct costs). So in the table I have records of accounts defined in chart of account and records with only CO elements. I have created the library using GLT0 as template and created the user exit for take the definition of cost elements and FI account in the same process. All work well the only problem is that for the cost element the values aren't displayed also if present in the table.
I supposed in some point the extraction of values is linked to a control of presence of account in FI (SKA1 or SKB1), but I don't find the point.
Someone has some ideas?Thanks
Davide

First, you don't so much want to back up the library, you want to archive the unwanted items. When archiving you should archive to two separate drives because there could come the day when you plug in the single archive copy and the drive doesn't start.
Why not just archive a copy of the library as it is now, then delete the items from the library on the computer? Don't bother making a new, blank library.

Report Painter - Library 7KO - Characteristic WERKS

Hello All -
I am trying to add field WERKS (plant) to my selection parameters for my report painter report.
I had to activate it as a characteristic in the library because it wasn't activate yet.
When I select plants on the selection screen, I get no data, so it must be filtering wrong.
I used a variable for WERKS, which is pointing to reporting table KKBC.
KKBC is the table that library 7KO looks at, so I dont know why it can't find any data with the plant filter.
Does anyone know how to look at a reporting table? This might help me.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Emmas

Hi,
Try the below steps and check -
1. Add the variable WERKS in General Data Selection after copying the standard report to z-version
2, Add the new report to the report group and generate it again

Can we combine the two tables for Report Painter

Hi,
For making the report in Report Painter, I am not getting all the required characteristics and Key figures all in one table / Library.
The required ones are in Table KKBC, GLT0 and CCSS.
Is it possible to combine these tables and make a new one so that I can create the Library and can use that Library while making the report in Report Painter.
Or is there any other work around to get the my required charcateristics and Key Figures so that I can make the report easily?
I dont want to go through ABAP route.
Kindly help.
Regards
Kami

Thanks Bulut for your reply,
But by going through View creation involves ABAP help, that I dont want.
However, is it poosible to use View while creating the reports in Report Painter? I am not sure.
I want to know whether can we create a table which is used for report painter, so that I can use for creating the Library and then the reports.
I hope you understand my point.

Kami
