Printing Layout /Report - PDF

Hi all,
A Bank has requested a report directly from SAP in PDF version. Normally we need to go Sales- AR -> Sales Reports -> Customer Receivables Ageing but can this be done by Factor Indicator?
Look forward to your reply,

Hi,
A bank requires a report that shows only the factored debt that comes straight off SAP. Unfortunately they will not accept it from excel etc as they say it is open to manipulation anyone.
So fundamentally we are after:
An ageing Report, on only the customers that are marked using the factoring index, to be generated directly out to PDF.
Hope this clarifies it for you?
Thank you,

Query Print Layout - Generated PDF Document Name?

Hi All,
Query Print Layouts associated to my user queries work great for printing...but does anyone know if there is a way to set a more appropriate document file name when attaching an edited PDF report to an email? It seems to always automatically create a document name starting with 'Query Manager_-1_12' or something similar when attaching the report document directly to email.
I do realize that I can save the file locally, choose any name I like, then attach to email... but this defeats the purpose of being able to send the query report directly to the email icon.
If anyone knows how I can do this it would be much appreciated. There seems no option in the QPLD document properties.
Best regards,
John

Hello,
Yes, I have the same question. It could be great being able to choose the name of the document when creating a pdf. Even better if you could chose fields of the document for the name of the pdf, such as, name of customer, number of document, date, etc.
Is there any way for doing this?
Thanks in advance,
Javier.

Authorization on Query Print Layout Report

Hi Experts,
Is there a way to limit users from generating Query Print Layout which they are not suppose to generate? Currently, all query print layout is exposed to all users, but I want to limit which users who can access specific reports only and to prevent from accidentally generating other confidential reports.
I tried grouping the queries per Query Manager and assigned the query number to designated users in Authorizations, but it seems that this does not apply in Query print layout generation.
Any help?
Don

Hi Gordon,
Yes, I gave the users authorization for the query print layout so that they can run one of the report, however, all the reports are exposed also, for confidentiality purposes, I don't want to allow the same users to generate other query print layouts.
Is there a way for this?
Thanks.

Query Print Layout Design

Hi Friends,
I am designing PLD's B1. I like to know the usage of Query Print Layout and methods to use the same. Because in my PLD i like to extract values from inv3 table directly to Database field. Looking for your suggestions , urgent.

Vijaya,
Query Print Layout is mainly used as presentation layer for printing results of a query.
If you have already built the query. Then click on query manager. highlight your query and click Create Report. This will open Create User Report window asking you to select Base Template. Click on the Base Template and Click Ok.
To format the look and feel go to Tools--> Queries --> Query Print Layout --> Reports Tab. Double click on your Query template and start customizing.
To preview the Print layour with you data you may highlight the query (do not double click) under query manager and click on File -->Print Preview

Web report - print layout - store of input

Hi,
the customer wants to have the grid lines and grey boxes on his printout as see on the screen. We are using internet exporer and when we print there is only the text and and the figures on the paper - no lines that give orientation.
When the customer enters data in the filter lines she wants to see that data in the filter boxes on the next day again. But how can this data be stored?

Has nobody any idea how to solve this problems?
I heard that the print layout can defined with BW3.7 as PDF File. Without this the printout can be defined via Excel (Bex Report)

FR Report Print Layout Setup for Excel

Hello All,
Is there any way to setup the Page Layout for Excel export of the report.The user will export the report from HTML view on Workspace to Excel from File Menu options.After viewing the report in excel the user should be able to directly print the report without setting the page size and all.
The Page Set Up option seems to be working for PDF but not in excel.

Barcode printing in XML report PDF output

Hi All,
I want to print barcode of invoice number / purchase order number in the XML report PDF output.
Anyone please suggest me with your ideas and experience.

Hi Bogdan,
The steps mentioned in the doc is what i did in order.
I couldn't understand the step # 13 & 14.
Log in as XML Publisher Administrator
Navigate to Administration --> Font Files --> Create Font File
Available fields are Font Name and File
--> for Font Name, choose any descriptive name
--> file will browse your PC to locate the font file
Navigate to Font Mappings -->Create Font Mapping Set
Mapping name is the name you will give to a set of fonts.
Mapping code is the internal name you will give to this set
Type: 'PDF Form' for PDF templates. 'FO to PDF' for all other template types.
Create Font Mapping (this allows you to add fonts to a set)
Font Family is the exact same name you see in MS Word under Font. If you don't use the same name the font will not be picked up at runtime.
Style and weight must also match how you use the font in the RTF or PDF layout template. Normal and Normal are good defaults.
Language and Territory should remain blank (NULL) unless you have a strong business reason, as these fields can cause the font not to be picked up at runtime.
Navigate to Configuration General -> FO Processing -->Font Mapping Set. This can also be done at Data Definition and Template level, via the corresponding Edit Configuration button on those pages. The hierarchy is Site-> Data Def -> Template.
Select your new mapping set.
Make sure the font is not referenced under File --> Properties --> Custom in the RTF template file.
Under General, set a Temporary Directory. The font will be stored under a /fonts directory at runtime, initially created the first time the font is used.
Upload a template that uses your special font and test using preview or by submitting a concurrent request.

Print Button in paper Layout reports

Hi All,
I have created a paper layout report with desformat = html.Its working fine.
Now my requirement is to print the report after the report is displayed on the browser.
Can I keep print button in reports ?
Please suggest me a solution.
Regards
Srini

Add some javascript to your report to submit the page to the printer. Use one of the report escapes (look at the properties of the report...double click the report in the object navigator). You can actually add some javascript in one of those escapes to submit the print job after the page has been loaded. I have never used one of those report escapes but that should work.
if you can do that, you should also be able to add an html button to the top of the page to accomplish the same thing or add a hyperlink to the report that submits another report with desformat = pdf which will probably print out much nicer. All of this should work with using report escapes.

Could you please help me.
Thanks
Sanjaya

Hi
I solved the problem. But the issue was when i ran the dunning wizard the layouts messed up. For example if I had a dunning letter with 3 lines (overdue documents). The last line would copy itself 4-6 times (it would show the last document 4-6times so the total lines in the dunning letter would be 7-9 lines). But I solve the issue. Somehow the attention person (which I got from the contact persons (ocrp) and not from the document contact person (oinv) ) did the issue. When i switch it to the oinv the issue was gone.
kind regards

Crystal Report print layout error during print preview

Hi Everyone,
When I try print preview a marketing document, it will work the first time, and then when I try to print preview again it brings up a window asking me to login into the database with the sa username and password.
When putting in the correct password, the login fails.
When I click cancel, SAP hangs up and requires a restart.
All print layouts were done in Crystal Reports, and imported via the report layout manager.
This occurs on all marketing documents where there is a crystal print layout.
Anyone will be able to help me with this?
Thanks
Best Regards

Hi Rahul,
Your solution worked. Thank you very much.
I also did not include a stored procedure into the connection that was needed in the layout.
This could have also added to the problem (for future reference).

Print layout designer for develop report based on query

Dear Experts/Gurus,
I am amazing about the manage previous reconciliation report. When I opened it using print layout designer, it looks like the report is not built using query, but I am not sure yet. This is very confusing. I created query similar with manage previous reconciliation (MPR), but when I link the query to print layout and try to make similar format/appearance with MPR report (reconciliation management (system)), it is not success.
Isn't the MPR report built not based on query ? I appreciate your answer. TIA
Rgds,

Hi,
I am not sure I understand what's the problem:
Is it the layout that is different or the data?
Regarding the data you can use SQL Profiler (maybe you did?) to find out what queries are fired, but please note that there are some stored procedures in the DB that are used for some specific functions - not sure whether the "MPR" uses any of these.
Then you must include some non-default filter in SQL Profiler...
...but you can also use the logging functionality in B1 for that purpose:
Just activate the logging (see the "log" folder in the B1 subdirectory) in the corresponding config file: choose the option to have the SQLs logged in conjunction with the logging being triggered in all cases (not just error).
Thus you will get all the SQLs - just plain - from the B1 application, but note that it will obviously slow it down!
HTH,

New customized report using PLD or QUERY PRINT LAYOUT to show customers onl

I am working with a Software Developing firm as an SAP Consultant.
Please tell me how to create a new customized report displaying various details as required by the client in the report using PLD or Query Print Layout.
Please help me asap.

Hi,
You can create queries using the Query Generator or the Query Wizard tools.
After you have created your own queries, you can link them to a required print layout.
for user reports.Look at:
Tools --> Queries --> Query Print Layout
Set there your query reports.
Printing User-Defined Queries
After you had linked a user-defined query to a user report template, you can now print it
according to its linked print layout.
There are two ways for printing your user-defined queries.
1. Using the Query Print Layout window:
Select from the upper menu Tools 􀃆 Queries 􀃆 Query Print Layout.
Click the Reports tab page.
Click to highlight the required query you would like to print.
Click on the printer icon or select from the upper menu File 􀃆 Print.
The user-defined query is printed according to its linked print layout.
2. Using the Queries Manager window:
Click the Queries Manager icon on the upper tool bar.
Click to highlight the required query you would like to print.
Click on the printer icon or select from the upper menu File 􀃆 Print.
The user-defined query is printed according to its linked print layout.
Note! You can also print preview user-defined queries. Do so by selecting the Print
Preview option as described in the methods above for printing your query.
Btw, you could search the manual training files relate to query PLD in http://www.service.sap.com/smb

My Menu - Add a Query Print Layout to the Report Folder

This is a newb question. I can easily add a Query or form or most anything else to the Folders under My Menus ... But how can I add a specific Print Query Layout to the Reports folder un My Menu?
I know it is simple but I can not find the steps in the documentation
Thanks in advance!!!
Dana

Kapil
I tried that, but it adds the Query not the QPLD to the menu.
I had figured that I could go the the QPLD memu and add the Report, but that adds the Query Print Layout Menu with all the reports.
I feel like I am missing something very obvious here!!!
Thanks for your quick response!!

Print Layout Designer / Open Items List Report

When I open the Reports>Sales and Purchasing>Open Items List report - How can I associate a different Print Layout depending on which Document Type is then selected from the drop down list..
Eg. When I print a list of Open Purchase Orders I want to us a different print template than when I print a list of Open Sales Orders ?
Thanks for any pointers..
Karen

Hello ...
You must enter the LDP clicking the pencil icon that appears in the toolbar when the window is open open items list.
Once there, create 2 new text fields, one with the text "Orders" and another that says "Customer Orders". Both fields were identified as Field_XXX and Field_YYY (where XXX and YYY are numbers that appear in their fields)
There is a field of variable rate system, which is what lets you see the description of the type of document. (Orders, Customer Orders, etc.).. This field corresponds to variable 100 (check it that way), we assume that this field is the field F_ZZZ within the layout.
Create 2 fields of type formula, the formula to edit it (Field_XXX == Field_ZZZ) and (Field_YYY == Field_ZZZ) respectively.
Create 2 text fields (these are only to test the application, then to understand the functionality can not delete them or leave them visible). Set in one of these areas, the letter "A" in the second field and set the letter "B". both camps can put one over the other in the layout.
Now comes the application of the field ... "A" condicionelo one of the formula fields and country "B" condicionelo another formula field. The conditional mode is to set the formula field in the general tab LINK A. ..
Try then see a preview of both reports and can see that depending on the type of document you will see "A" or "B" as appropriate.
Apply the same logic as those fields that you will create and generate the difference between formats.
I hope this will be helpful
Best Regards,

Print Layout Designer \Custom Reports

Hello All,
Is there a way to set a custom report as default in the Print Layout Designer for A/R Invoice in SAP B1 ?
Thank you and Best wishes and Happiness in the New Year 2009.
Ben

Hello All,
Thank you for your answer but I would like to be more exact in my question because I already know how to set a Print Layout as default in a screen of SAP B1 like A/R Invoice by the way that Parlati has mentioned :
1. Open a blank AR Invoice (e.g. service or item type)
2. Click on Menu >> Tools >> Print Layout Designer... or pen icon on toolbar
3. With The Document Type selected - choose template and click on Set as Default
But I usually use the Query Manager Tool of SAP B1 to create new queries and reports and I use the Print Layout Designer to setup the layout of these reports. These reports are printed normally via the print preview Icon of the toolbar. But now I would like to know how can I set one of these Reports as default in A/R Invoice screen of SAP. Because it's a one of my customized Invoices.
Is there a way to do this?
Thank you.
Ben.
