Disappearing report lines

Post Author: blagdonman
CA Forum: Formula
Please help while I have some hair left!
I have a report which operates on two linked tables named Events and Matches.  The report creates lines composed from several fields in Events and one field in Matches, lets call it "Title".  It was working fine while every record in Events had a valid link to Matches.  Things changed, as they do, and the link between the tables became optional.  So now, where no match is expected a zero value occurs in Events where the link to Matches would usually be.
I replaced the required Matches field in the report with a formula that said (in pseudo code): if the link in Events is null or zero valued then return the string "No match exists" else return the value of the Title field from Matches.
Much to my amazement this didn't work - the whole report line was blank, even the fields from Events didn't show up!
If I re-jig the "else" part of the formula to output the string "A match exists." instead of the Title field then I see the whole line.
As soon as I introduce the Title field back into the formula I get blank lines again even though, when the link in Events  is zero, I'm not processing that part of the formula that uses the field name!  I don't get it!  CR seems to look into the formula, see the reference to the field in Events and assume that I'm going to process it.
Advice is welcomed, and necessary, to preserve my sanity.
Thanks,
J.

Thanks for your reply - here's a few comments:
- I had only used the CR Database Expert and the Select Expert to set up table, record and field selection and to make sure the links were the right way round.
- The relationship from Events to Matches is many to one (which is the opposite to what you thought).
- I originally had an inner join from Events to Matches.
- I used the CR Database Expert to change to a Left Outer join (you had given the hint) and it worked.  The whole thing now turns out exactly as I want it.  The only remaining problem is that I'm not sure why!
Thanks for your interest and help - we did it!!!!

    Hi Sastry:
    Thanks for the help.
    How to add some total lines into this? For example, I want to add the first 10 rows together as Sales, then next 4 rows as Cost, the report should like:
    Product Sales
    Inter-company Sales
    Sales
    Cost - HD
    Cost - Sales
    Cost - Product
    Other Cost
    Cost
    Profit
    The sales is the sum of the first 2 rows, Cost is the sum of the 4 cost rows, and the profit equal to Sales - Cost.
    Thanks you very much.
    Best regards,

    Select the offending parts with a fuzzy-edged selection and adjust the curves to get some relief.
    Then Burn and Dodge can be your friends as well.
    Some things that can help:  Make a duplicate layer so you have the original to compare against (and to go back to as needed.  Work in 16 bits / channel and (ideally) at an upsampled resolution.  Add a Curves adjustment layer above with the curves pulled up so you can lighten up the shadows as needed and see that you're getting things right even in the dark shadows.
    You may need to do some selective noise reduction in the places you've enhanced, as the lightening and darkening will bring up the noise.

    For Example:

  • Find out reporting line of current user from org model

    Hi all,
    Does anybody know a standard function module (or some pieces of code) that queries the organization model (pposa_bbp) of SRM and returns the reporting line of the current user? For example, the function should return the current user's supervisor and his  supervisor recursively until the top of the company management.
    Thanks!

  • Can i disappear the line at report section.

    hi.
    i have one small Requirement.
    ie.
    under detail section in put one report section
    in report section i draw  two vertical lines left and right
    and also immediate report i draw one horizontal line.
    my requirement is ..
    Based upon the Detail section date the report section some times goes to the  second page some times it is at first page.
    when ever it is  goes to the second page the horizontal line should be Disappear...
    only left and right should be appear..
    is there any magic
    is it possible
    it yes
    plz suggest me some ideas.

    Hi Srini,
    You cannot conditionally suppress lines/boxes.
    Only workaround is to place that horizontal line in another section and suppress that section itself.

  • How can I display all results of a array element in a TS2.0 NumericArrayMeasurement in a single report line?

    TestStand2.0 generates for each result property ( data, limits, status...) of each array element in a NumericArrayTest an extra line in the test report.
    How can I change this to display all result properties of one array element in a single line?
    How can I reduce the spaces between the property name and its value in the report?
    How can I delete the message: "Measurement[x]" and display only the Measurement Alias (named in the Edit Limits menu)?
    This means I like to change my report from:
    Measurement[0] (ADC1):
    Data: 5000
    Status: Passed
    Measurement[1] (AD
    C2):
    To:
    ADC1: Data: 5000 Status: Passed
    ADC2: ...

    Hi,
    What you can do, is use the Override Callbacks for Modify the Report that is Generated.
    Also you can also change the report sequence 'reportgen_txt.seq' to achieve the desired affect. If you go for modifying the report sequence then copy this to the User folder and then make your changes.
    In the Resources Library you can find simple examples were the report has been modified by either using the Override Callbacks or by modifying the actual sequence.
    One other item in the Report Options you will have to set the 'Select a Report Generator for Producing the Report Body' control to use the Sequence instead of the DLL.
    Hope this helps

  • Crystal Report Line Problem

    Experts,
    The vertical lines are not ending in pages.

  • Crystal Report Lines Problem

    Experts,
    In one crystal report, there are more than 20 pages. Now in first page data coming fine, but in most of the pages, the lines (column lines, vertical lines) are not ending or not touching the horizontal line which really looks very odd. Please help

    Hi,
    There are a couple of options when formatting the lines that you can try.
    For the horizontal lines in the format dialog check the 'Move to bottom of section when printing' option.
    For the vertical lines, make sure they extend into the section with the horizontal line and in the format dialog check the 'Extend to bottom of section when printing' option.
    This generally tidies things up but the real trick is in getting the lines in the correct sections.  I try and avoid lines where possible since the lining up always takes time but it is often useful to have a section below the main printing section which is only for the horizontal line.
    Hope this helps

  • Display GL Account Short Text in FBL3N report line

    Dear all,
    I have one issue here. I would like to display the GL Account Short Text while executing report FBL3N.By default system will display each GL account and it's short text at the header before the list of all entries for the specific GL account. But user would like to have it at every line item (in the table line) in the report. This is because they need it during excel extraction.
    May i know how do i go about this?
    Many thanks.

    Hello,
    Please check the following.
    You cannot assign vendor or customer number to sales/purchase GL account with standard settings.
    You must do some development for it.
    You can add additional field to FBL*N reports with using BTE exit.
    First of all, if you don't use BTE before, you must create a product on FIBF.
    Call FIBF transaction -> Settings -> Products -> ...of a customer
    Create a new line,
    Product: ZFI
    Text: BTE Products for FI Exit
    Product active: tick checks from activation.
    Then you must call SE11 for structure RFPOS.
    You must use append structure function for this structure and you can define ZFI_RFPOS append structure
    Define 4 fields.
    Component: KUNNR - Component type: KUNNR
    Component: NAMED - Component type: NAME1
    Component: LIFNR - Component type: LINFR
    Component: NAMEK - Component type: NAME1
    Then save and active your RFPOS structure.
    After that, you must do same step for structure RFPOSX.
    Then go to SE37 and copy from SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00001650 to ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650 FM.
    After copy action, you must uncomment this line on ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650 FM's source code. It's very important;
    E_POSTAB = I_POSTAB.
    Then you should add some ABAP code for getting customer & vendor details.
    I give you some examples, you can use it. (Next message on this thread, please check)
    Then save and active FM.
    Call FIBF transaction again.
    FIBF -> Settings -> Process Modules -> ...of a customer
    Define a new line.
    Process: 00001650
    Function Module: ZFI_INTERFACE_00001650
    Product: ZFI
    and this customizing.
    Then you go to SE38 transaction.
    start report RFPOSXEXTEND. After starting, a pop-up appears, you must click YES.
    After those operations, you can see customer/vendor code and their names on FBL3N.
    ABAP source example,
    TABLES : bseg, kna1, lfa1.
    IF sy-tcode = 'FBL3N'.
      CLEAR: bseg.
      SELECT SINGLE *
      FROM bseg
      WHERE bukrs = i_postab-bukrs
           AND belnr = i_postab-belnr
           AND gjahr = i_postab-gjahr
           AND koart = 'K'.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        e_postab-lifnr = bseg-lifnr.
        CLEAR: lfa1.
        SELECT SINGLE *
        FROM lfa1
        WHERE lifnr = bseg-lifnr.
        IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
          e_postab-namek = lfa1-name1.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
      CLEAR : bseg.
      SELECT SINGLE *
      FROM bseg
      WHERE bukrs = i_postab-bukrs
           AND belnr = i_postab-belnr
           AND gjahr = i_postab-gjahr
           AND koart = 'D'.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        e_postab-kunnr = bseg-kunnr.
        CLEAR: kna1.
        SELECT SINGLE *
        FROM kna1
        WHERE kunnr = bseg-kunnr.
        IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
          e_postab-named = kna1-name1.
        ENDIF.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.

  • Report Painter - Totals are different on face of report & line item details

    Hello,
    We have a report designed in report painter. Thye lIbrary table is GLPCT.
    When we run the report system gives e.g. 100 $ on face of report. However when we double click on that line to get a line item details reoprt the value is different. It is either less or more than the amount diaplayed on initial report.
    Please can you suggest what coule be the probable reason for this anamoly.
    Thaks & Regards
    Shreenath

    Hi Sreenath,
    when you double-click on a line you are jumping to another report.
    The report you are jumping to has either been defined as a linked report by you, or it has been copied from an original SAP-report if you started the creation of your report by copying a standard SAP report.
    The sending report tries to pass on all the selections for the cell you double-click to the line-item report. For standard SAP reports it is guaranteed that this should work and the line item report gives the sames results as the report you are calling it from.
    For self-defined reports, this may not always work. I have had problems especially when calling line-item reports from sum-lines of my self-defined report. The reason was that the selections could not be passed on properly.
    Example:
    line 1: selection on account X and profit center A
    line 2: selection on account Y and profit center B
    line 3: sum of line 1 and line 2
    Now, when I double-click on a cell of line 3 and jump to line items, it passes on the selection idependently, i.e.
    accounts: X, Y
    profit center: A, B
    the line item report now gives me all values for all combinations of accounts X and Y and profit centers A and B.
    It does not take into account the combined selections in my original report.
