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
DeepakYou can not change a particular cell only in report painter.
Thanks

Report Painter problem with empty selection variant
Hello,
I use the cost center selection variant for the column definition in Report Painter as characteristic value. This selection variant get only the cost centers which are valid from 1.1.2003 to 31.12.2004. The column of the report created by Report Painter which uses this selection variant display value without taking into account limitations follow from this selection variant. I expect value zero for year fiscal year 2007 in this column, because the cost centers are invalid in 2007 year but the report displays different value. The problem appeared after upgrade from 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
Best Regards
ZDMy problem with Report Painter occurred when I was creating my own report based on 1VK library.
In my example I used in the column definition characteristic Cost
Center, which is determined by selection variant, and Basic Key Figure
equal SWKG-Costs. For system date (18.07.2007) there are no valid
master data for the characteristic Cost Center but when I execute
report for fiscal year 2007 the column display no-zero value without
taking into account value of Characteristic Cost Center. I expected
zero value in this column because there are no postings for Cost
Centers (no valid cost centers were selected) in financial year 2007.
Could you help me with this problem ? -
Report Painter not showing totals for some cells
Hi,
We're developing a report painter that will give us a total of all the columns. This total uses a set of variables and a set which essentially is a grouping of the profit centers. The problem is it is not showing any value on the cell. Despite the individual accounts having some values.
Any ideas where could this gone wrong ? the set exist with the correct accounts.
I.e.
A1 A2 TOTAL (A1 + A2 - defined in set)
Depreciation 100 100 200 [ but this shows blank]how did you solve this problem,my financial statement is not reflecting total posted depreciation even though it is reflecting the depreciation in the indididual G/L accounts.

Report Painter: Separate formula in each cell of a column
Hi,
I'm creating a report painter report using GRR1. My 1st column is particulars (which includes revenue & costs) and 2nd column is % to sales. I need a separate formula in each cell of column2 to divide the contents of the respective cell in column1 by sales (the figure in 1 cell) & then multiply it by 100. Is this possible? If yes, then how?

How to exclude a cell from a row in Report Painter
Hello,
In report painter, I am calculating a percentage of a row within a separate row. Is there a way to only calculate this percentage in certain cells within the row? The row defaults to calculate the entire population but it is only necessary for a few cells.
Thanks,
MeganIt is possible to reference SSRS elements directly using the ReportItems collection. If your total tablix cell is outside of yoour matrix groups, you can use this collection to accomplish what you want:
=ReportItems!Matrix1Total.Value + ReportItems!Matrix2Total.Value
where Matrix1Total and Matrix2Total is the name of the cell that contains your totals. Note that for this to work, the cell name must be unique. If the total cell is inside a group, it will be repeated once for each instance of the group and will not be
unique.
You may be able to do it using the Sum aggregate and specifying the dataset for the scope variable:
=Sum(Fields!fld1.Value, "DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value,
"DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value,
"DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value,
"DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value,
"DataSet1")+Sum(Fields!fld1.Value,
"DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld2.Value,
"DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld3.Value,
"DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld4.Value,
"DataSet2")+Sum(Fields!fld5.Value,
"DataSet2")
This will work as long as you are not filtering the dataset in your Matrix properties. If you are, those
filters will not apply to this expression and the numbers will not total correctly.

Merge cells in CO-PA report by report painter tool!
Hi all,
I am using report painter to define reports in CO-PA.
But I wonder how to merge cells in the header row in CO-PA report?
For example:
Column 1: Revenue/ value
Column 2: Revenue / total quantity
Column 3: Cost of Good sold/ value
Column 4: COGS/ total quantity
Row 1: Total quantity
Row 2: Mogas
Row 3: Gas
Now, I want merge column 1 and 2 to Revenue, then split that merged column into 2 sub columns: value, value/total quantity.
I want merge column 3 and 4 to COGS, then split that merged column into 2 sub columns: value, value/total quantity.
How can I do that?
Thanks for any suggestion!
HuyenTTI am very sorry. I made a mistake.
Column 1: Revenue - value (usd)
Column 2: Revenue / total quantity (usd/liter)
Column 3: Cost of Good sold - value (usd)
Column 4: COGS/ total quantity (usd/liter)
Any idea will be highly appreciated.
Thanks for any help!

Hi,
I have a issue with BEX Reporting...
I need to create some Fields as selection under a structure.For each Field I have a Hidden column with the same name and with all the filters for that particular hidden column.Now in the Cell definition I give the filters and define the hidden column as Cell Reference. Now for the visible fields i need to do cell calculation using something like this--
IF Cell_Reference > 0 THEN Cell_Reference ELSE NULL.
I cannot find a function to carry out such a calculation.
Can anyone please suggest as to how do i do it..?
Thanks a lot..
JeevHi,
Try to create Restricted Key figures for those characteristics based on the key figure for which you want to calculate and create condition based on the created RKF to check for > 0.
Hope this helps

Two steps to be taken to bring Amount in Doc. currency as a key figure(F4 help).
1. Added new field 'WRSHB' , data element for this field WRSHB_D (Used Append Structure) in RFRRD20 structure. FDI4 used this structure only.
2. create new entries in TKAF table under application class Account receivable FBRD. field value WRSHB ,data element value WRSHB_D, and others field value are as same as DMSHB record.
After these steps, now u check in FDI4 tcode. U can get Amt in doc. currency as key figure. -
EXTREMELY URGENT: % Cost (out of Total Costs) Column in Report Painter
Hi Gurus,
I'm not new to Report Painter, but, am stuck at one thing.
In report, Col 1 shows Costs by Administration (row 1), Labor (row 2), Others (row 3) and total (row 4 being formula as total of row 1, 2 & 3).
Client wants col 2 to show % Cost of each row out of total Expenses (so totals row in this col. will have 100%)
How to do it technically.
Please help. It's EXTREMELY URGENT.
I'll award points ASAP
Regards,
SBIts abit difficult to illustrate without having a screen dump, what you can do is make use of something called special cell definition. Now if you double click on the cell for column 1 of row 4 for total costs then the system identifies it as a cell Z001 which in fact will recognise a constant value of total costs , thereby you can define in Column 2 as a formula element with (X001/Z001)*100 thereby giving a value in %. Try it and see if it helps

krish..Hi
Report painter:
A tool for creating reports that meet specific business and reporting requirements.
The Report Painter enables you to report on data from various applications. It uses a graphical report structure that forms the basis for the report definition. When defining the report, you work with a structure that corresponds to the final structure of the report when the report data is output.
The SAP System is delivered with several row and column models that can be used as building blocks to help you create reports quickly and simply.
Report Writer:
A tool for creating reports that meet specific business and reporting requirements.
Report Writer enables you to report on data from multiple applications. Using functions such as sets, variables, formulas, cells and key figures, you can create complex reports that meet specific reporting requirements.
When working with Report Writer, you can use certain functions that are not supported by Report Painter. These functions include:
Multidimensional column structures
User-defined definition of inactive row and column combinations
Enhanced functions for using cells in column formulas
ABAP Query:
An ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.
ABAP Query offers the following types of reports:
Basic lists
Statistics
Ranked lists

Where Is Report Painter/Report Writer Used?
Initially, both tools were only available to the FI/CO modules. Later, with the introduction of the Logistics Information System and Flexible Analyses in Release 3.x, the functionality of these tools was further expanded. It still is not widely known that the Report Painter/Writer can be used for reporting against structures other than those delivered in FI and CO (see TechTalk on page 8-4).
A common misconception in the user community is that Report Painter/Report Writer can only be used to report against a single table. However, some reporting structures do report against multiple tables. For example, CCSS (for Cost Center Accounting) refers to tables COSP, COSS and more, depending on the key figure configuration. Similarly, FI-SL (Special Purpose Ledger) reporting structures include summary and line-item tables (the key figure set determines where the data comes from).
To configure other table joins, views may be created joining the necessary tables, and views can be added to the control tables, via Flexible Analyses in LIS. Report Painter/Report Writer can be used in almost any application area in R/3 to report on currencies and quantities.
Data tables supported
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).
< New in Release 4.0A: RWCOOM is used for CO-CCA, CO-OPA, and CO-ABC. RWCOOM is used for special standard reports like internal order budget reports, cost center budget reports and cost component reports.
Note: RPPS was used for Project Systems (PS). However, it is obsolete and will no longer be supported in Release 4.0. In Release 3.x there were only two special reports (6P70 and 6P71) using RPPS. These reports cannot be called directly, but via ABAP reports RKOPLAN0 and RKOPLAN1.
How to Access Report Painter/Report Writer?
To access the Report Painter you may use either of the following two methods:
< Transaction FGRP
< From the SAP main menu, choose Information systems ® Ad hoc reports® Report painter.
Report Writer functions can be accessed from within the Report Painter. To access Report Writer, choose the following menu path from the SAP main menu:
Information systems ® Ad hoc reports® Report painter® Report Writer.
How Is Report Painter/Report Writer Organized?
Report Painter/Report Writer has four main components:
< Sets: Sets are logical groupings of characteristic values. For example, a cash line on a balance sheet is made up of a set of cash accounts or an energy product line on an inventory report is made up of a set of energy products. Variables can also be created which are placeholders for sets, or values within sets.
< Libraries: Libraries control which characteristics and key figures from a table are available for reporting.
< Reports: Reports hold a definition of the rows, columns, and overall data selection. They also include the header and footer texts and layout settings.
< Report Groups: Report groups can contain one or more reports. The report group is what you executenot the actual report. A report group is generated to create a set of ABAP programs that produce the reports.
How Does Report Painter Differ from Other Reporting Tools?
< With the exception of row titles which have text fields, Report Painter/Report Writer reports display numerical fields only (for example, dollar and quantity fields). This is not a requirement for ABAP Query and typical line item reporting tools, which can display arbitrary text columns.
< While printed Report Painter/Report Writer reports appear much the same way on paper as they do on screen, the Drilldown reporting tool produces a different output format. Drilldown reporting is an online analytical tool which can be used to drill down to different levels of detail, but it is infrequently used for printing.
< Report Painter/Report Writer reports are hierarchical and take advantage of configured hierarchies (for example, with cost center hierarchies). You can also execute Report Painter/Report Writer reports from each level within a hierarchy.
< Report Painter/Report Writer reports can handle multiple currency/quantity units within a single column.
< Report Painter/Report Writer is well suited to handle reports that require mass production. For example, Report Painter/Report Writer is a particularly effective tool for creating month-end reports.
