Creating a report with YTD values

Hello experts ,
I have a requirement wherein I have to modify a few Cash Spend reports in monthly movements format to Year to Date (YTD) format.I am a bit confused with the terms Monthly movements and Year to Date , can anyone who has some knowledge in this area explain to me about that.Also is there any SAP exit available for YTD format.Thanks a lot for your time and guidance.

Arvind,
Monthly movements is simply comparing the values of past few months with the current month. Whereas, YTD is getting the values from year starting to the current month. THere are some predefined variables for YTD. Again you can create a variable for YTD using an user exit if the SAP delivered variables do not satisfy the requirement.
Hope this helps you.....

Monthly Trend Report with YTD.

Hi gurus,
In my query, I want the previous year sales to be displayed along with current year sales and growth.
Now, I have to create a monthly trend report along with YTD values in the end. Months should be drilled across by default. In the end, there should be YTD values as well (for the same Key Figures).
The report output should look as follows (run for only two months say April 09 and May 09, YTD would be till April 09 to May 09)
Apri 09 May09 YTD Value
Sales District 1 KF1 KF2 KF3 KF1 KF2 KF3 KF1 KF2 KF3
Considering that for Previous Year, I just want Net sales (not other KF's) & that the report should have the complete month wise trend along with YTD, I cannot create a structure as well.
Can anyone please tell me how to go about achieving it.
Thank & rgds,
Sree

IExpense Create Expense Report Page - Entity Value

Hi All,
IExpense Create Expense Report Page has an entity value by default . I am not sure that whether it is based on responsibility login or on employee login .
1) Pls let me know if you know it .
In Create Expense Report Page , department value can be selected by the user . Now I have selected a department which does not belong to the default entity . In this case I am able to create the expense report but with default entity code combination .
2)I need to customize the entity value based on the selected department.But I could not track where the entity value is being set.
Any suggestions to start it off ??
Thanks,
Thavam

Dear Thavam,
You need to decompile your Controller and AMImpl class files and understand the underlying logic. Thereafter you can identify a solution to extend the controller and introduce the solution.

How to create a report with survey data

Hi All,
I need to create a report with survey data in below format. Can anyone help me how to display the summary in this format.
Swapna

Hi Swapna,
According to your description, you want to create a report with survey data and display the summary.
Reporting Services is used for rendering the report with data retrieved from datasource. In Reporting Services, we can retrieve data from the datasource then design a report, after the report processed, data is fixed on the report. So it’s not supported
to have the end users selection and do summary. For your requirement, it’s can’t be achieved currently.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to create a report with data using the Crystal Reports for Java SDK

Hi,
How do I create a report with data that can be displayed via the Crystal Report for Java SDK and the Viewers API?
I am writing my own report designer, and would like to use the Crystal Runtime Engine to display my report in DHTML, PDF, and Excel formats. I can create my own report through the following code snippet:
ReportClientDocument boReportClientDocument = new ReportClientDocument();
boReportClientDocument.newDocument();
However, I cannot find a way to add data elements to the report without specifying an RPT file. Is this possible? I seems like it is since the Eclipse Plug In allows you to specify your database parameters when creating an RPT file.
is there a way to do this through these packages?
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.definition
Am I forced to create a RPT file for the different table and column structures I have?
Thank you in advance for any insights.

Hi Rameez,
After working through the example code some more, and doing some more research, I remain unable to populate a report with my own data and view the report in a browser. I realize this is a long post, but there are multiple errors I am receiving, and these are the seemingly essential ones that I am hitting.

Throws the exception
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportSDKException: java.lang.NullPointerException---- Error code:-2147467259 Error code name:failed
There was other sample code on SDN which suggested the following - adding the table after calling table.setDataFields() as in:
          String tableName = "Building";
            String fieldname = "Building_Name";
            Table oTable = new Table();
            oTable.setName(tableName);

            field.setName(fieldname);
            field.setType(FieldValueType.stringField);
            field.setLength(40);

FieldObject oFieldObject = new FieldObject();
            oFieldObject.setDataSourceName(field.getFormulaForm());
            oFieldObject.setFieldValueType(field.getType());
            // Now add it to the section
            oFieldObject.setLeft(3120);

            rcd.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(oFieldObject, rcd.getReportDefController().getReportDefinition().getDetailArea().getSections().getSection(0), -1);
Then I get an error (which is not unexpected)
com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.lib.ReportDefControllerException: The field was not found.---- Error code:-2147213283 Error code name:invalidFieldObject
How do I add one of the table.SetDataFields() to my report to be displayed?
Are there any other pointers or suggestions you may have?
Thank you

How to create a report with different page sizes

Hi,
I would like to create a report with different page sizes, it's possible to do it with diadem?
When I change the layout parameters, changes afect to all sheets...
Is there a way to change page size individually for each sheet?
Thanks in advance.
Marc

Hi Marc,
You can use the DocStart and DocEnd commands along with the PicPrint command to spool multiple print commands to the same output PDF file using the direct printer approach. This should enable you to programmatically specify the page size differently for each sheet that you add to the print job.
' Print PDF Page by Page.VBS
OPTION EXPLICIT
Dim i, Path, OldPrintName
Path = AutoActPath & "2D Stacked"
Call DataDelAll
Call DataFileLoad(Path & ".TDM")
PDFFileName = Path & " Page by Page.pdf"
IF FileExist(PDFFileName) THEN Call FileDelete(PDFFileName)
OldPrintName = PrintName
PrintName = "winspool,DIAdem PDF Export,LPT1:" ' Set to PDF printer
PDFResolution = "72 DPI" ' "2400 DPI" , "default"
PDFOptimization = TRUE
PDFFontsEmbedded = FALSE
PDFJPGCompressed = "high"
PrintOrient = "landscape" ' orient paper
Call PrintMaxScale("GRAPH") ' auto-max, see alternative margin setting variables below
PrintLeftMarg = 0.181
PrintTopMarg = 0.181
PrintWidth = 10.67
'PrintHeigth = 7 (read-only)
Call WndShow("REPORT")
Call DocStart ' Begin multi-page document/print job
FOR i = 1 TO 4
Call PicLoad(Path & ".TDR")
Call GraphSheetNGet(1)
Call GraphSheetRename(GraphSheetName, "Page " & i)
Call PicUpdate
Call PicPrint("WinPrint") ' Add a page to be printed

Call DocEnd ' End multi-page document/print job
PrintName = OldPrintName

Problem when creating a Report with a schduled date

When I tried to create a report with a Schedule (any option except NOW) I get the error of "First Report Occur Date should be after or equal to Current Date" unless I use a date of 2012-10-01 or later in the First report occurs on field. Today's date is 2012-08-23.
Let me know if you can recreate this and if or when there will be a fix.

Hi Tim,
I'm glad to see you've been configuring your On100, but sad to see you've hit another snag. We are looking into this issue now. I'll get back to you with an update.

Help creating a report with Financial Reporting Studio.

Hi,
Im new at Financial Reporting Studio so my question might be something very easy, for beginners.
Im trying to create a report with two columns where in each column there is the year dimension. In the first column there is the current POV for year, but in the second column I would like to set the prevoius year of the POV automatically, without using a prompt. Is there any function or way to do it?
Tanks foy yuour help!
Edu

Use the relative function.
The first column will be set to use the User POV.
For the second column... see the tab named "Functions". Select the function "RelativeMember". For the Member row - select User POV. For the offset enter -1... that will automatically select the prior year.

Creating a report with multiple Y-axes on one graph

I currently have a script that will create a report with either 1, 2, or 3 graphs and has the ability to have four graphs per plot. I would like to add functionality to this script by making the Y-axis on the graphs have multiple Y-axes. How can I programmatically create a graph with multiple Y-axes?

To create an new axis system use the command GraphObjNew, eg:
Call GraphObjNew("2D-Axis","2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
D2AxisBackColor = "blue"
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
Call PicUpdate
If you have DIAdem Version 10 you can also create a new y-axis using GraphObjYAxisNew. This command is not available in versions 9.1:
Call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
AxisNo = GraphObjYAxisNew("left")
If AxisNo>0 Then
Call GraphObjOpen(D2AxisYObj(AxisNo))
D2AXISYTXT ="My new axis"
D2AXISYTXTFONT ="Arial"
D2AXISYTXTCOLOR ="red"
Call GraphObjClose(D2AxisYObj(AxisNo))
End If
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")

Need to create a report with drop down option

Hi,
I have created a report with a simple query. Its a real time report.
select host_name, target_name, instance_name from MGMT$DB_DBNINSTANCEINFO
where target_type = 'oracle_database';
It gives me a tabular report. It works fine. But it is a huge report about 1000 rows. We can see a particular number of rows per page. Thats fine.
I need something else. I will select a particular target name from a drop down and the report will give me the result for the respective target only. Is that possible ? How to do that ?
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
When you create your report, in the "general" tab, under Targets click on the first radio button named "A target will be selected by the report viewer when viewing the report" and under that choose target type="Database Instance".
Then in your report query, use the predefined variable ??EMIP_BIND_TARGET_GUID?? to identify the target the report user will select at execution time; for instance:
select host_name, target_name, instance_name from MGMT$DB_DBNINSTANCEINFO
where target_type = 'oracle_database' and target_guid=??EMIP_BIND_TARGET_GUID?? ;

Noel

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Is it possible to create purchase order with zero value ?

Hi,
There are two scenarios where the purchase order is created with zero value.
1. Standard Purchase order with Free tick indicator.
Whenever we expect a material with free of cost from vendor, we use to put the free indicator in item overview. This means the material is valuated at zero price irrespective of price control in material master. Quanitiy is updated while receipts.
Conditions tab in item detail doesnt appear.
2. Consignment PO.
While creating a purchase order for consignment, the system doesnt ask us the price and the condition tab doesnt appear in item detail.
An info record for consignment must be maintained before making the GR.
Hope i have clarified. If you want any further clarification. please do reply.

Creating custom reports with Pie Chart

Hello,
I've got a little problem while I'm creating custom reports with SQL Chart.
For example, I want to have a Pie Chart that represent the distribution of the version for a software, i wrote my query with no problem, the result is in good format.
My Pie Chart is fine except there are no percentage displayed. The legend on the right is fine with correct count of different version, but no percentage on the pie chart.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance,
Fab

Hello,
well, I think this is not possible to ask OEM to print the percentage over the chart.
Anyway, I sugget you to rewrite your query to compute the % in the query itselft thus to have the pct displayed on the rigth.
Let's say you want to display the database files' size with such a query: select file_name name,bytes val from dba_data_files;
This is the way to display the % of each file size over the total (remark the above query has been embeded in the new one).
select name,ratio_to_report(val) over() pct
from ( select file_name name,bytes val from dba_data_files )
order by val desc
It is quite easy to adapt such a tip to your own query.

Noel Talard

How to create Webi Reports with SAP BW Objects

Hi,
I have no knowledge on creating webi reports with SAP BW Objects like (InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject).
As per my understanding Webi reports can be developed with universe which is created on BEx Queries or OLAP BAPI interface, unfortunately i don't have BEx App installed. So, i have to create OLAP universe in this case.
Here my question is can we create universe with all the available BW objects like InfoCube, DSO, MultiProvider, Infoview, MasterData Infoobject.
Please, Can anyone suggest a solution
Thanks,
Siva
Edited by: siva@chinni on Apr 25, 2010 4:45 PM

Hi,
Yes we can create WebI on the top of SAP Objects - InfoCube, DSO, Characteristics etc...
But we have to keep in mind that for WebI we must create Universe.
When we create universe we make direct connection with SAP Objects but we get less functionality - such Calculated Key Figures, Restricted Key Figures, formulas etc. Now you have to achieve all these missing components at Universe Level and at WebI level.
If you are creating your universe on the top of DSO and InfoObject then make sure they set for reporting.
There are some online documentation which tells that what functionality you can achieve.
Check the following document to have a bird's eye view.
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/100369a7-033e-2c10-94a4-f254f8578153?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
