Query Print Layout-Linking a new header field with ref to repetitive area

Hi,
In a query print layout, the query result based on pending items from a specific vendor is to be displayed.
On trying to insert a new database field (eg. Vendor Name), in the header area based on the pending item details in the repetitive area, the print output shows up a random vendor name (not related with the query result).
The RELATE TO property-option of the header field does not list the repetitive area fields, and the LINK TO option does not help either.
Please advise any other way to link the new db field to display the correct vendor name (contact person, address) as used in the query.
thanks,
Avinash

Yes, the fields are part of the query.
Eg. The pending items from a specific vendor(with vendor code, name) is listed in the repetitive area of the layout. But the requirement is to have the Vendor Name and Address details in the Header portion(i.e. Letter to Vendor). Please help me on this.
thanks,
Avi.

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

Problem with Query Print Layout

Hi, i have this type of problem.
I have create a query with 5 fields,i have saved it, and ,after, i have created a report on this query (Query Print Layout).
So, i have manipulated the report based on the preferences of the customer.
After this operation, customer tell me that he want to see one more field in the report, so i must add, in the original query, this field. But i note that i can't add a field. I can do it, but i must remake all the report.
There is a way to do this type of operation, without remake the report from the start?
Thanks
Regards
Marco

Hi Marco:
I asked our Print Layout Expert, and she tolds me that you have to create the report again.
Some time ago, in the report designer was a way to change the link to the query, but that option is disable now.
So, be patient and ask for this functionality to be implemented.

Backup a Query Print Layout or PLD form to restore later

How can I backup a PLD or Query Print Layout and save to a drive that will allow me to restore the layouts later on another version of B1?
I am upgrading 2005 to 2007 and during some testing I found the layouts were not saved in it's original form that we created and we had to redo them. I want to be sure I keep the layout as is and only tweak the fields if they have changed at all from 1 version to the next.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Joanne

Oh sure CX will work fine but not across DB versions. I need the format "before" I upgrade the DB....then take those forms and restore them or copy them to the new DB "after" upgrade.
I already tried to copy them across DB versions, no luck.
See I have a Check register using QPL that works great, when I do the upgrade from 2005A to 2007A, the layout goes all out of whack and is not the same as it was in 2005A. I had to redo everything in the layout as if it was created again.
I am trying to avoid that by coping the form someplace and seeing if I can restore it back after the fact, then test it.
Does that make sense?

How to use Group in Query Print Layout

Hi All,
I have prepared a query for fetching all purchase details along with tax code, now I have ordered it on tax code and prepared a query Print Layout,
Now within this Query Print Lay Out I want to group the tax code and want to add total of some columns at end of every tax code.
Request to guide how to achieve this.
Thanking you in advance,

We need to use Sort and Group in combination.
Select the repeatative area and in PLD menu select Sort, then select the column to be sort.
then in Header / Footer of that respective repeatative area select the fields and put in the group no. in the General.

How to use query print layout design

i have a sql query and i want to see its result on report with the help of print layout design.

In addition to Tuvia's answer, here is the printing procedure of query PLD:
Printing User-Defined Queries
Use
After you have linked a user-defined query to a user report template, you can print it according to its linked print layout.
Procedure
To print a user-defined query, use one of the following two procedures:
Using the Query Print Layout window:
1. Choose Tools u2192 Queries u2192 Query Print Layout.
2. Choose the Reports tab page and select the query you would like to print.
3. Choose File u2192 Print.
The user-defined query is printed according to its linked print layout.
Using the Queries Manager window:
1. From the toolbar, choose with the quick info text Queries Manager.
2. Select the query you would like to print.
3. Choose File u2192 Print.
The user-defined query is printed according to its linked print layout.
You can also display a print preview for user-defined queries. To do so, choose File u2192 Print Preview.
Printing User-Defined Queries with Variables
Use
When a user-defined query contains variables, its linked print layout will also display the variables data and print them.
In the print layout linked to that query, you can see that an additional area containing the condition's parameters was added
There is pdf file relate to Query PLD in the SAP service marketplace website.

How too set query print layout parameters?

Hello,
simple task:
1. Open "Query Print Layout...": SBO_Application.ActivateMenuItem("4868")
2. Handle new reports form: SBO_Application.Forms.ActiveForm (I know, the better solution should be get form with proper TypeEx and highest TypeCount, but now it doesn't matter)
3. Select row with required report: m.Columns.Item(0).Cells.Item(row).Click(BoCellClickType.ct_Regular, 0)
4. Run printing: SBO_Application.ActivateMenuItem("519")
5. Handle new parameters form: ???
How can I get newly created form containing report parameters (TypeEx "4000")? I wanna set proper parameters and click "OK" to show printed report. Doesn't work handling:
- FORM_LOAD in ItemEvent
- MenuEvent for "519" (is only BeforeAction
- PrintEvent (executed after accepting parameters)
- ReportDataEvent (passed FormUID belongs to reports list, not parameters)
In each event I've listed all forms and there is no form titled "Query - Selection Criteria" with expected TypeEx.
Is there any way to achive this?

when you activate print preview of printing on selected User Query Layout, you can cacth the ET_FORM_LOAD event of formTypeEx =4000
It is working. Please note if you do not have this event, you may check your filters (?)
Then you can populate your values. Based on my experience the click ok button is not working.
Tip: Search the forum in year 2009 i have posted there sample codes

Query Print Layout / Query Manager

Hopefully some one here can help me out ...
I have created a handful of Query Print Layouts. How or is there a way when I make a change to the underlying query, to reassociate it with the report? Now when I change the query, I have to create a new report. I am currently on SAP B1 2007 PL11. When I upgraded from PL06 to PL11, the queries handle prompted dates differently, causing me to have to make a simple syntax change to my query which does not change the data being passed to the report.
Thanks in advance
Dana

Dana,
This is the short-coming of the Query PLD. Once you change the Query, you will need to redo the template all over again.
Therefore, it is a good practise to always finalize the query and then design the layout.
Re-assigning the revised query to QPLD is not possible

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.

Query Print Layout - Incoming Payment

Hi All,
I have done the query print layout for incoming payment. but it cannot show the correct A/R invoice: document number. When I only make the payment for 1 invoice it seems to be correct, but when I choose 2 invoices to be paid, then the A/R invoice: document number for the second row is wrong ( if follows the first row).
Below is the query:
SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.DocDate, T0.DocCur, T0.DocTotal,
T0.DocTotalFC, T1.DocNum, T1.CardCode, T1.CardName,
T1.DocDate, T1.Comments,T1.TrsfrRef as 'Cheque No',
T2.BankCode' 'T2.AcctNum as 'Bank Code' , T0.Address , T3.Phone1 , T3.CntctPrsn , T0.PaidToDate, T0.PaidFc , T4.AppliedSys , T4.AppliedFc
FROM [dbo].[OINV] T0 INNER JOIN ORCT T1
ON T0.ReceiptNum = T1.DocEntry LEFT JOIN RCT1 T2
ON T1.DocNum = T2.DocNum LEFT JOIN RCT2 T4
ON T4.DocNum = T2.DocNum LEFT JOIN OCRD T3
ON T1.CardCode = T3.CardCode
WHERE T1.DocNum = [%0]
ORDER BY T1.DocNum
the fields that i want to display in repetitive area are: A/R invoice: Document date , A/R invoice: document number, Amount that they have paid ( partial payment / full payment) i used this database: Incoming payment - a/r invoice: paid, outstanding amount i used formula ( total document - paid to date), and document currency
Thank you! hope you can help.
Pauline

Pauline,
I've tested your query in B1 2007A SP00 PL30 and works fine. I even created PLD for the query and I can see 2 invoice paid by one incoming payment.

Query Print Layout column sum in report footer

Hi Experts,
I am utilizing a query and created the layout via Query Print Layout. I am using sort and group functions which filters my column sums for a certain field conditions. My problem is that when I want to make a total column sum for all the repetitive footers' column sum, the system shows a message that only repetitive areas can be average/ sum.
Is this the standard behaviour of the system? Or is this a limitation if we are using the print layout via Query print layout. Any workaround to get the final total for all pages column sum?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Don

hello
Don

)) so u can get ur total for repetitive footer fields
II).if u want repetitive area lines colsum for every field u take as colsum with respect to the unique id of repetitive area fields

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.

R.Vijai

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

Create template for query print layout

Hello
I see there are 2 templates in the querry print layout but I do not want to use one of the existing templates.
I need to copy a query print layout I've made from one query to others queries, is it possible to copy the first print layout as a template to be used for all other queries?
Thank you

Hi,
Unfortunately it is not possible, the layouts are unique per query. You need to use the system template whenever you create a new query print layout.
