COPA Report Painter

Hi,
I consider possibility of using conditional expression 'IF' in COPA report painter in formulas. Is it possible ? I am asking because syntax from common report painter is not correct in COPA it means e.g.:
IF Y001 <> 0 THAN Y001 ELSE Y002.
It would be beneficial for me.
regards,
Rafal S.

Hi again,
Thanks for reply, but are you sure that the syntax is correct for COPA report painter formulas ? I have tried to apply it and after the check system gives me "incorrect syntax" message.
regards,
Rafal S.

Copy a COPA Report painter Report KE30 to a Z-Report in SE38

Dear all,
We have to copy a existing KE30 - Report Painter Report which is for COPA to a Z- Report in SE38 to have some conditions which was not possible through the report painter.
When copied we are not able to get the output in the screen as a drill down report but we are getting in spool request.
Requesting u all to help us in this regard.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Vivek K

Hi Robin,
the request is not unusual. However, report painter does not allow for two key columns or a key column combining two characteristics. You might consider using SAP Query (with table COEP or COSS/COSP for aggregates) if you do not want to resort to developing the report in ABAP.

Posting date as selection parameter in COPA report painter report

hi,
we want to include the posting date and document date in selection criterion of COPA report generated through report painter.
we do not want to use period and fiscal yr as selection criterion.
pls suggest.
regards
FLD

Hi Sashidhar,
First go to the program RHU_HELP and you need to enhance the code using the enhancement technique using implicit enhancement. You can add your new selection criteria at line no 257( need to create an new implicit enhancement).
Hope this is helpful for you.

Report Painter Variables

Does anyone know how to re-arrange the variables in a Report Painter Report?
My selection screen shows-
Enter Year 2:
Enter Year 1:
I want it to say -
Enter Year 1:
Enter Year 2:
Thanks in advance for your reply!
Renee

If this is a COPA Report painter report, then go to transaction KE32, double click on the relevant report, click on the variables tab (on the right) and click on the button 'Sort Variables'. There are sequence numbers that you can change to position the variables appropriately.

Select options in report painter COPA

In report painter when we go to "maintain selection options", the
"exclude from selection" is greyed out.
Any suggestions?

HI, guess SAPNET 516557 will help.

Report painter/writer for actual cost component split

Hello Gurus,
Any of you guys ever explored possibility of creating a report using report painter or writer that can give both Standard and Actual cost component splits in one report? Is it even possible without custom ABAP involvement?
Thanks
RG

Hi Raghu,
After your reply, I am getting a doubt..
Have you Activated Material Ledger? When you say Actual Cost Component Split, are you talking about it what you get in Actual Costing/Material Ledger?
If yes, then you can map your cost compnents for Actual Costing in the path SPROControllingProfitability AnalysisMaster Data Valuation--Setup Valuation using Material Cost Estimate -- Define Access to Actual Costing / Material Ledger
Further, there are no standard reports available in COPA. Try to build a report comprising two columns, 1st column with the value fields which are mapped for Standard Cost Components and 2nd column with the Value Fields which you have assined for Actual Costing under the above path.
You will be able to get the comparison...
Pls don't hesitate to call me for further assistance....

Error while Client copy request - Report Painter

Hi friends,
I am copying a Workbench request from customization client to test client through SCC1. This relates to Report painter report transport for FDI1. However, I am getting the following warning message while transport -
"Program ended with error or warning, return code: 4"
As per my understanding, the above message is a warning message. However, I would like to check if any of you have come across this message? Is this a normal warning message without any negetive system impact?
Request your guidance for the same.
Thanks in advance
Hrishi

Hi Suma,
Thanks a lot for the response.
Yes it is a Workbench request. And I am adding the new report to the SAP Standard report menu under Line Item Analysis.
Also, some COPA tables are getting updated in the background. Is this normal? Are the standard report painter tables related to COPA tables in any manner?
Thanks in advance.

Report Painter variance analysis

Hello All,
Client has requested a report painter report which would display different variance categories in columns for different order or material whatever the user may wish to choose.
I want to know how should I define the columns ie. what characteristics should appear on the columns.
Also I want to know how should I define rows - I am completely blank on that.
Thirdly what should be the general data characteristics.
NIK

Hi,
Only in COPA, you can get the category wise variances. If COPA has been activated in your system, you can very well have report on variances by category wise.
Trust this helps much and do encourage our efforts!
Cheers!

COPA Report ( How to explode in the report )

Hi ,
I just created COPA painter report for the sales commission.When i drill down the Report it will show the commission posted for each sales district 1 , when i drill the sales district it will show all the profit center 1 updated for the sale district 1 commission, when you drill the profit center it will show the cost centers posted for the profit center 1 commission.
But here what i need is when i drill the profit center, report must show all the cost centers ( just like when we create a variable for cost centers and explode in the report painter report for cost centers).
as we use Characteristics i am not able to explode all the cost centers.
Thanks in adavance

Hi Saritha,
Its not technically possible to remove '#' from output when there is no value for that InfoObject unless you exclude it from result set. Other option is to have some character, in our scenario the way we did is, we always put dot ' . ' instead of blank while loading the data into data target which can be done using Transformations / update rules / Transfer rules.
Anyway you can suppress it....Try this,
Step 1: Select the Characteristic which u want to hide (#) in the Bex report.
Step 2: Right click --- restrict --> you will get a popup screen with some values and Select # from the left side of the screen and drop it to the right side.
Step 3: Right click on the # you will get an option "exclude from selection". Select it and activate.
Hope it Helps,
Thanks,

Export/import report painter

How to export /import report painter.
please help.

Export and Import functionality is useful to make a quick copy of a report from one client to another client, in whichever instance it may be (Dev, QA or PRD), provided you have authorization. This will not be available in other clients in the same server (Dev, QA or PRD) to which the reports are not imported.
The best practise would be to include the reports in a transport request and broadcast to all clients in various servers namely Dev, QA or PRD.
When you are in GR57, enter the report group and click all the check boxes in the further selection. Enter the location and the file name of the destination like 'c:\Mydocuments\Z123' and execute. You can see that in this folder. Go to the other client where you want this report, and type the transaction GR58, copy paste the 'c:\Mydocuments\Z123' and execute. It just copies the report group with all its dependents to this client. If there is already one by that name, it overwrites. Suggest not to do it in production. <b>Transports are recommended</b>.

Logical Formulae in Report Painter

Hi,
How do we insert a logical formula in a report painter.
For instance, "IF-THEN-ELSE".
Your early replies would be appreciated..

You would create a formula column in reports or formula variables to use in columns.
More details on link's below:
