BFC: Cell formulas in reports

Hello,
I wonder if it´s possible to insert a cell formula (IF formula) in a BFC Report, which has a text as a result.
Formula should look like this:
= IF (A1 > 0 and B1 = 0; "YES"; "NO")
I always get "Incorrect formula" as long as I use "YES" or "NO" as a result. As soon as I uses numbers, the formula works.
Is this a normal behaviour?
We are using SAP FC 10.0 SP09
Regards
Martin

Hi Martin,
According to FC10 Windows User Guide: "Note: Cell formulas do not enable you to display text. Similarly, they do not enable you to apply conditions to text."
A possible workaround is setting text in Cell Format > Data > Display for positive, negative and zero values. In your case above, you can set formula in "control" cell as = IF (B1=0; A1; -1) and set cell Display as "YES";"NO";"NO".
Best regards,
Olga

Cell formulas stop reporting correct values. Numbers 3.5.

10.10
Numbers 3.5
In the same table:
I have a cell (say #1) with a number value entered say 10.40.
I have another cell (say cell #2) that is set to equal that cell's value.
This works and cell 2 reports the correct value of cell 1.
But once every 10 or so restarts cell 2 stops reporting cell 1's value correctly.
It reports the previous value after I change Cell 1's value.
Sometimes deleting cell 2's reference and re-entering it works.
Other times it just continues to report cell 1's previous value.
Getting cell 2 to report the current value of cell 1 can be a chore.
Other cells on the same sheet with more complicated formulas also stop reporting the correct values.
Many references are for cells in other tables on the same sheet.
I can spend 30-45 minutes correcting the mess every 10 or so restarts.
Anyone else have this issue?
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks ... Ken

Nothing like that here. Have you tried deleting Numbers 3.5 (go to LaunchPad, hold down the mouse button until the icons quiver, and click the x by the Numbers icon) and re-downloading from the Mac App Store? Also have you tried shutting down and restarting your Mac?

Constant Checking in Row Formula for Report Writer

Dear All,
Please advice what is the format to check a constant (string) in the row formula for Report Writer.
Let's say if I want to check the cost center group -->
If '&1KOSET' = 'ABC' then .... else......
So, what is the format for ABC? Because if i put 'ABC' it will be treated as cell. But if i do not put the ' ', then i get system error.
Thanks a million for your advice.
Best Regards,
CW

Hi John Lee,
The logic that you would want , can be implemented through a column set. That is, as per your logic written in the set, your column values differ.
First in your set, keep your account number in the first set line. ie. 5000000.
Then you enter the following formula in the second line of a set defined for a report column:
IF u2018001u2019 > 5000000 THEN u2018001u2019 ELSE 0
If the value in the first column (set line 001) is greater than 5000000, then this value displays in the second column; if the value in the first column is less than 1000, the value 0 displays in the second column.
Revert if you need any additional help.

Double click on cell in alv report

Hi all,
I want to show detail popup on cell of alv report. how to get the cell value.
plz tell me the logic for getting cell value.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
IF RS_SELFIELD-FIELDNAME = 'EBELN1'.
* Read data table, using index of row user clicked on
READ TABLE IT_EKKO INTO WA_EKKO INDEX RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX.
Please remember the field EBELN1 should be in IT_EKKO. after the read statement you can move which ever field you want to another for further processing
like
READ TABLE IT_EKKO INTO WA_EKKO INDEX RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
move it_ekkp-( your field name) to v_field
endif.

Hiding the blank cells in Webi report - BO 4.0

Hi,
I have created a webi report in which i have used different types of blocks
1) Form table
2) Verticle table
3) Horizontal table.
so now in real time there chances that some of the blocks will not have any data.(i.e it displays blank cell) in the report.
so now i have to hide only the blank cells and not the table headers.that means though the cells are blank i have to display headers.
what formatting changes i need to achieve this in Webi Report.
If anybody does this please let me know the step by step logic in detail.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Naga Nanda Kishore.

Hi,
We cannot hide specifc cells in WebI, however we can choose to whether to display or not empty measure values and empty dimension value.
So you need to select the desired block-> Right Click and Select Format Table-> Uncheck Show rows with empty dimension values or Show rows with empty measure values whichever is required to be hidden.
Hope this helps.

Fill cell color in report - the entire cell?

Hi all,
Apologies to ask for something that has already been touched on.
https://forums.oracle.com/message/843430#843430
This solution was great to read. It colors the text background in a cell, in a report, depending on the data within. This is almost, but not quite coloring the entire cell.
I have been trying for a while but at this point can I put it to the brains trust? (ie you)
In old school language, what I'm after is
<TABLE border=1 bgcolor=#FFFFFF>
<TR>
<TD>my first table</TD>
<TD bgcolor=#00FF00>my first table</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
...which colors one entire cell, rather than just the white behind the text.
FYI, I would then go to make this conditional depending on the data in the cell - Effectively becoming the Excel stype Conditional formatting.
Thanks.

Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?

Hi!
I'm new to this BO. I've already posted my problem in some other place in this forum. Now, I think that may be a wrong place to post.
So, i'm posting this problem once more here.
I'm giving you that link which i've already posted (Otherwise it will be duplicate thing to post the entire content) ->
[Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?|Can i merge two cell in BO Reports?;
Sorry for this initial mess.
Waiting for your feedback.
Regards.
Satyaki De.

Thanks for your reply.
But, my requirement is slightly different than what you have shown.
I've created two reports say report 1 & report 2. And, it should looks like this ->
Report 1,
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1                    25
2002 Q2         13         14
Report 2,
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1          7         12
2002 Q2         10
And, my required final output should be ->
YEAR QT         P1         P2
2001 Q1          7         37
2002 Q2         23         14
So, as you can see - i'm merging and adding the values of two reports into one.
I'm using Oracle 10g as my DB. Is it possible that i can write some SQL query any where in any place of the reports that can do this staff. Then i can go for that kind of solution, too.
But, in that case i need to know where to write the query. Please reply.
But, first -> Is it at all possible in BO?
Thanks again for your valuable time to read this post.

Cell definations in reporting?

really we use cell definations in reporting in real time.
Thanking u
suneel.

Hi ,
Yes its required for some situations.
But you must have two structures in column and row then only u can use this option.
You have to use this some scenarios for example you are displaying time periods like Q1, Q2, Q3 & Q4 and Total in rows and amount values , percentage in column.
In this situation in order to show the total u can sum Q1Q2Q3+Q4 values but percentage u cannot some, so u have to use cell defination where u can calculate percentage using restricted key fig you can select and show this by using cell defination.
Assign points pls.........
