Hi Raj,
On our set-up to schedule reports you need access to the Central Management Console of BO - I don't know how you get this though, I was sent a link to it by my line manager.
Once you are in the Central Management Console, you can browse the reports in your repository, and just click on the 'schedule' tab for each one and select the options you want.
Hope that helps...

OB52 Posting Period Close: Does anyone know how to automate the close?

Does anyone know how to automate the FI Period Close (trans code OB52)? Currently, the business users go into the screen and open and close any periods manually. For the MM period close, we are able to do so because we found the program to use in the batch job. For some reason, the FI side shows the program SAPL0F00 but this is only a view and will not allow a batch job to be created. Does anyone know of the actual program used for the FI period close?

Use program RFPERIOD_OPEN. It may help. For further details you may check the following thread.

How to grow the report of customer's openitem with sales order

How to grow the report of customer's open item with sales order?
Now we can get the customer's open item with invoice No easily,but our end user need the the customer's open item also with sales order .And because a invoice to multi sales orders. I can do nothing.
Now I have a idea that a develivey No with one sales order , and one invoice with a sales order's develivery ,then one inovice to one sales order . I want to know if other company have use this idea. Or have other solution for my problem.

Hi Yuzhou Yang ,
Yes you are right. In FI transaction you can get the sales invoice wise , reference field of the header data.
As you are aware that while creating a sales order , no FI entry is generated.
In my opinion you can get the required report through customization.
Thanks

How to find the report for the SAP query (Query exists in table AQLQCAT)

Hello Experts,
I need to find the tables used in the SAP Query but i don't have access to transaction SQ01,SQ02 and SQ03 to check the same.
Therefore i checked table AQLQCAT and got the SAP Queries in the system. Then searched for the reports that would have been generated for the same passing AQusergroupquery name* in transaction SE38.
But unfortunately the program does not exists for the given paramenter.
Could you please let me know how to get the report name for the SAP Query.
Secondly please suggest any other way of checking the tables used in the SAP Query.
Also the table name from where i can download the SAP Queries.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rahul Sinha

I suggest you a simple method.
Execute the query. When the selection screen is showed, go to menu and click to SYSTEM->STATUS.
Check the program name and double click it to access the program code.
Search for tables or functions into the source code in order to understand where data are taken.
If you do not find anything , go to the program atttribute and check for logic database, sometimes they are used....
Best regards.

How to format the report with the aggregated value

Hi,
I have 2 characteristics and 3 KFs in the infocube.
First field is Cost Center
Second field is creation Date
3rd field is KF1
4th field is KF2
5th field is KF3
I have put the date field( in the row) as this is required for calculating formula for KFs. But I have set that as No display.
The date in the info cube is as follows.
Cost Ceneter Date( no Display)   KF1     KF2      KF3
CC1           01/01/2006          100     150      200
CC1           02/02/2006          75      100      95
CC1           05/02/2006          125      95      125
CC2           01/02/2006          75       25      85
CC2           02/02/2006          85       65      10
As the Date field is in query set to No display so the date appearing in the report is as follows
CC1       100        150        200
          75         100        95
          125          95        125
CC2       75           25        85
          85           65        10
But I want the aggregated value at cost senter level i.e.
CC1       300         245       420
CC2       160         90         95
I can not remove the Date frield from query as there is a formula variable defined on the date field.
Please let me know how to bring the report to the required format.

If you are in new Bex, you can do it.
You will have to create another (set of) CKF on top of the current ones (which do exception aggregation on DOCNUM) and set the exception aggregation on date.
Say you have
CH1--CH2CH3--CKF1
To have a 'before aggregation' behavior for CKF1 when CH3 is not present, you will create a CKF2 = CKF1 with exception aggregation on CH3.
Now, if you want to remove CH2 and have the 'before aggregation' behavior you will need to create another CKF3 = CKF2 with exception aggregation on CH2.
ie for each level of aggregation, you will have to define a new CKF/Formula with corresponding exception aggregation - this is what will be needed to get you your output.

How to set the report path in a model plugin

I am trying to figure out how to set the report path in a process model plug-in. I can seem to figure out how to get access to it. It seems like this would be a reasonable thing to do since the plug-ins are for results processing. Does anyone know how to do this? We typically use the Sequential process model but I am trying to keep my plug-in as independent of that as possible.
Thanks.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If I understand, you want your plug-in, when enabled, to alter the settings of any other instances of the NI report plug-in such that their reports share the same directory as your plug-in is configured to use.
If so, your plug-in can access and modify the settings of all other plug-in instances. All instances are passed to all plug-in entries point in the plugins array sub-property of the ModelConfiguration parameter. You can iterate through this array. Any element of the array with a Base.SequenceFilename equal to "NI_ReportGenerator.seq" is an instance of the NI report plug-in. Its report options are stored in the element under PluginSpecific.Options.
You can change the report options to what ever you want. Note that the ReportOptions model callback is called from the Initialize model-plugin entry point, so you might want to ensure that your changes are applied after that, so they aren't overwritten. To do that, you could make your changes in the the Initialize entry point of your plug-in, and ensure that your plugin runs last. To make it run last, you could set the FileGlobals.ModelPluginComponentDescription.Default.Base.RunOrder in your plug-in file to a value greater than 0, such as 1.0 (see TestStand Help>>Fundamentals>>Process Model Architecture>>Process Model Plug-in Architecture>>Structure of Plug-in Sequence Files>>Model Plug-in Entry Points>>Order of Entry Point Execution at Run Time).

How to convert the Report Builder output to .xls

Dear All,
Let me please know how to convert the Report Builder output to Excel Format.
As there are having the facility to convert the output in .PDF or .HTML format but i want to convert that into Excel Sheet......
Please Guide me in this regards
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Vishal......

Hello,
If your question is about the format spreadsheet, it is not possible from Reports Builder :
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/whatare/output/output_a_simpleexcel.htm
Restrictions
It is not possible to generate spreadsheet output directly from Reports Builder. Instead, on the command line, you can run the report using rwrun or Reports Server clients (rwservlet, rwclient, rwcgi), with DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET. You cannot store DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET as a system parameter value in the report definition (.rdf file).

How to get the Reports of Change Tracking Table in MDM?

Hi!
Please tell me how to get the reports of Change Tracking Table in MDM which is a System table, directly from MDM without using any interface.
Thanks in advance for the reply.
With Best Regards
Devendra Pandey

Hi Devendra,
MDM can track changes on tables and fields. <u>The level of change tracking, and which tables/fields to track, are configurable in the MDM Console</u>. MDM opens a new database on the same database engine as the MDM repository and writes all change records to this database.
For information of various steps you can visit
