R&D expense deduction in financial reports

Hi,
Depends on PRC government's policy, the expense of R&D can be deducted before income taxes when we do the month end closing and generate the financial reports. Do you have any experience to implement it in SAP? thanks
Best regards

Financial Reporting (FR) using Substitution Variables with Quotes

HI all,
I've created a substitution variable, &CurWk, for a Period Dimension member. The member name, Dec Wk2, has an embedded space, so I enclose the member name in quotes when assigning it to the substitution variable in EAS. However, when I try to use that substitution variable in Financial Reporting, it does not recognize the Substitution variable. I've closed down and re-opened the FR Studio. If I remove the quotes around the member name when assigning it to the Substitution Variable, then FR will recognize the substitution variable. However, I get an error in the calc scripts if I try to reference the substitution variable if this member name is not enclosed in quotes. In my mind, this seems to be a bug in FR since quotes can be optional when referencing any member name. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a work-around? I'm using EPM 11.1.1. Thanks for your help!
Vince Kelly

Hi Vince,
For the Calc scripts add & to the front of the sub var and surround the sub var with [ ], for example:
where sub vars are ReptQTR, ReptYR, ReptScenario:
CASE
When (Is(QTR.Currentmember,[&REPTQTR]) and (IS(FY.Currentmember,[&REPTYR]))) then
     CASE
     When ((ISUDA(L000.CurrentMember,"NC"))) then
          CASE
          WHEN (ISUDA(L000.CurrentMember,"Expense")) THEN
          (([&REPTPYR],[ACT]) - [&REPTSCENARIO])
          ELSE
          ([&REPTSCENARIO] - ([&REPTPYR],[ACT]))
          END
     END
END

VBA to pull from Financial Reporting Studio/Reporting and Analysis Framework

Hi all,
I just started using Financial Reporting Studio, and I did a lot of research online to try to answer the questions I have below but to no avail, so I'm hoping I can get answers from the experts here.
1. I was wondering if it's possible to use SmartView VBA to pull a report from the "Reporting and Analysis Framework" onto Excel? If yes, how?
2. When I tried to pull lots of data from "Reporting and Analysis Framework" onto Excel using SmartView, it keeps getting the error message "New report failed to insert properly". Is there a way around this? Essentially, what I'm trying to do is pull the Expense data (Actuals, Budget, Forecast) from year 2011 to 2015 (by month) for every department (with each department being on its own worksheet using the split feature). If I reduce the number of departments or columns, it'll work, but when I try to keep everything, it fails.
Thanks for your guys' help!

Hi there,
There is VBA manual for smartiview application however I am not sure that you will be able to automate the retrieve of a report.
Check chapter 19 of http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/sv_user.pdf

Financial Reporting Chart Legend

Hi everyone,
I want to create some chart in Financial Reporting Studio. I was wondering if have any idea of how to present the legend of a chart in Financial Reporting in a line instead of a column that it is the default.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
Thank you for the reply.
However, my goal is to change the layout of the legend and not the placement of the legend.
In other words, my goal is to place the members of the legend in one line under the chart, the one member should be next to the other and not under the other as it is by default.
Example:
Default legend:
Net Interest Income
Revenue
Expenses
My goal:
Net Interest Income Revenue Expenses
Thank you in advance

Using Planning vs Essbase connection in financial reports

What are the pros/cons of using an essbase connection for financial reporting vs using a planning connection? we are on 9.2.1. using the Financial reporting studio client. These are basic financial reports-cost center expense reports, income statement, revenue analysis, etc.
I notice that when I use a planning connection, I cannot select any attribute dimensions in my financial report.
Also, are there any differences in the security used with a planning connection vs an essbase connection
Thanks
Jeff

-- "I notice that when I use a planning connection, I cannot select any attribute dimensions in my financial report."
you can select any attribute (see WorkSpace->File->Properties->Financial Reporting...)
-- "Also, are there any differences in the security used with a planning connection vs an essbase connection"
there are not big differences.
We use planning for most of our reports. If report is very big (many rows or lines) we use financial report.

Financial Report Template- Calculation error

Hi All
I have developed a template for Profit and Loss Statement by using
Financial report Template
Under operating expenses heading i am having following heads
F&B consumption
Non-F&B Consumption
Gas Fuel ...
Operating Expenses value i am getting is wrong due to the following reason
F&B consumption calculates ( F&B consumption= F&B Opening Stock+ F&B
Purchase- F&B Closing Stock)
I need to add a formula to find F&B Consumption that is coming under F&B
Consumption head
Non-F&B consumption calculates (Non- F&B consumption= Non-F&B Opening
Stock+ Non-F&B Purchase- Non-F&B Closing Stock)
I need to add a formula to find Non-F&B Consumption that is coming under
Non-F&B Consumption head
For calculation from the system
In the present calculation the Operating expenses is derived by adding
the closing stock value as just an other expense head instead of
subtracting the same and also by ignoring the subtotal which actually
refers to the calculation (Consumption=Opening stock+Purchase-Closing Stock)
Calculation Expecting
We need the Operating expenses to either consider the subtotals to add
for the expenditure or the closing stock value needs to be reduced from
the Expenses.
Please help to solve the issue
Regards
Rashid

This error usually means the workspace agent is not up and running or can't be connected, are you sure that workspace is definitely up and running and you can log into workspace.

Order settlement cost ( Activity cost) can we consider for financial report

I am in port Implemetation as per their senario financial reports based on cost center hierarchy,
for minisrial report requirement, they submitting Operational wise nothing but cost center heirarchy wise
for Pm order settlement Man hour cost based on kp26 computed cost converted actual at the time of confirmation. At the time of settlement to concern cost center is debited but primary cost booking for (man hour) salaries not deducting the primary cost element. Here is salaries and manhours both is apprearing in the cost center. My client requirement is based manour activity cost deducted in salary primary element, they want that process. After Order settlement based on amount we can deduct concern intial cost booking cost center to Order settle cost center.
Please suggest and PM order cost affect in cost center in primary booking and after order settlement
Please anyone resolve my issue
Clarification above issue
when we settle PM order Activtiy cost (Manhours) based on the salaried booked in primary cost element,we assume per hour man hour cost and specify in kp26 based on the activtiy cost planning system picks cost and at time of order settlement it will settle concern cost center.
intially we booked salaries in primary cost not thing but salaries a/c and once again we are settling the same salary assumption cost to cost center ...
when we go for cost center report Initial salary a/c booking Administrative cost center and now production cost center with activity cost with secondary cost element ....so problem is both cost centers are debiting for the same salaries( activity cost) but my client want cost center report all including primary and secondary cost element total balance.
Please resolve my problem it very critical

Dear Sudhakar,
salaries cost booked in administrative cost center with primary cost element salary a/c
but Activity type man hour is meant for per hour salary cost. we can specified in kp26
so when we take cost center report, we get salary amount and activity cost in admin cost center and product cost center for the same salary amount... for financial report requirment, if we use cost center report the salay amount appeared twice.
Please explain the activity cost against salay amount ..

Financial Report Template

Hi Experts,
I need to develop a report template for Financial Reports, I need to sort my accounts in a different way other than using the Chart of Accounts Template,I already tried creating a new template but I had some hick-ups, can any one please point me to any documentation/guide for developing report templates.
Waiting to Hear from You.
Kind Regards
Edited by: Chike Nwogu on Dec 2, 2008 1:04 PM

Hi
To compile financial reports, the system needs a template that specifies the structure of the report. You must define these financial report templates in advance.
For some countries SAP Business One delivers templates that you can use to create your own financial report templates. An alternative is to copy the structure of your chart of accounts and then make any necessary changes to it. You can use the financial report templates to compile balance sheets, profit and loss statements, and trial balance reports (totals and balances of G/L accounts and business partner accounts).
Balance Sheet u2013 The system proposes the accounts in the Assets group as assets (active) accounts; the system proposes the accounts in the Liabilities group and the Capital and Reserves group as liability (passive) accounts. You can change these proposals on the highest levels of your financial report template. The system automatically displays the profit or loss for the period (Profit Period).
Profit and Loss Statement u2013 The system proposes the accounts in all the other groups (Turnover, Cost of Sales, Operating Costs, Non-Operating Income and Expenditure, Taxation and Extraordinary Items) and offers the calculation of subtotals.
Trial Balance u2013 The financial report template can contain the accounts from all groups. It displays the totals of all groups but does not offer any subtotal calculation.
You can create comparison reports that compare the figures from a specific company or fiscal year with those of a different company or fiscal year.
Choose Financials  Financial Reports  Financial and then Balance Sheet or Trial Balance or Profit and Loss Statement to generate these financial reports.
Choose Financials  Financial Report Templates to define and maintain financial report templates.
Editing a financial report template is similar, but not identical to, editing a chart of accounts.
Every financial report template has exactly five levels.
Levels one to four consist of only titles.
The G/L accounts are all located on the fifth level.
If you want the totals of the G/L accounts to be displayed on a higher level, you can make the higher titles invisible by selecting the Dummy Title indicator.
You can hide G/L accounts if you donu2019t want them to be displayed.
In a financial report template for balance sheets, you can let the system automatically transfer accounts to the other side of the balance sheet in case the account balance is negative. To do this, select the Transfer Accounts with Negative Sign indicator and specify the place where the transferred account should be.
In a financial report template for profit and loss statements, the system can insert a subtotal on every level:
Level 1 (level of account groups): Select Automatic Summary to let the system use predefined formulas for the gross profit, operating profit, profit after financing expenses, and profit period.
All levels: You can define your own formulas. Select Totals Formula and choose Formula to enter a formula based on the titles of the same level as the subtotal.

Require two different Financial Reports for the Same Financial Year - 2011

Hi Experts,
The financial Year of the client is from jan-Dec.The client needs different financial reports (P&L , B/S), one from Jan-Aug and another from Sept-Dec for the FY 2011 since the management of the company has changed from Sept-2011 onwards. So when tried to generate the financial reports from Sept-Dec , system shows the carry forward opening balances of income and expenses from Aug 2011 which they do not want. Since we have not done any closing activities at the end of aug-2011 this figure is bound to come. So in this scenario is there any possibilities to get a fresh financial reports from Sept to Dec 2011 where there should not be any opening balances of expenses and incomes for Sept 2011.
Since transferring of balances from income and expenses to retained earnings accounts has done yearly basis , how can we do this for the periods also or any other method to sort out this issue.
Hope my question is clear. if not pls revert with the queries.
Thanks in Advance,
Arabinda

Thank you very much.

Proxy error while running the financial report in workspace.

Hi,
We are using the Hyperion financial reporting 9.3.1 with Essbase as a data source.
While running a report in workspace, we are getting the 'Proxy error' meassage, which is following-
"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
'<html><head>
<title>502 Proxy Error</title>
</head><body>
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid
response from an upstream server. 
The proxy server could not handle the request <a

Do anybody have any idea on this? Any help will be appriciated on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohit Jain

Hi Iain,
We are using Microsoft Internet explorer 6.0. I am not sure about the 'proxy' (As we don't have any proxy setting in Tool--> Internet options--> connection--> LAN setting). We are accessing the Workspace and FR studio via Citrix application. How can I check the proxy.
Also, I noticed one more point, Report has prompt for seleting 'Account hierarchy'.If we run the report only for one account hierarchy, report is returning the data but while running for multiple account hierarchy, it is throwing the 'Proxy error' as memtioned above.
Please help us on this.
Thank & Regards,

Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

Hi,
Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
*"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
*"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.

How do I create a GL responsibility to access multiple ledgers (error trying to run Financial report submission)

I created a new GL responsibility and used the same menu as an existing one but created a new data access set that has all the ledgers in it that we want to access.
I left the following profile options with no value. The reason being is this responsibility should not be tied to any org/ledger.
MO: Operating Unit
GL Ledger ID
GL Ledger Name
This all seems to be working fine except when the users try to access Financial Report Submission. The error that appears when trying to choose a ledger when running the report.
Error: Stale Data
The requested page contains stale data. This error could have been caused through the use of the browser's navigation buttons (the browser Back button, for example).
I have cleared the browser cache and cache was cleared by functional administrator. In this case it really doesn't seem to be anything to do with the browser's back button being used (I didn't use it) since I can make this error go away by setting the value for GL Ledger Name. But that is not what the users want since that will restrict them to a specific ledger but they should be able to run the report for any ledger.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Please see (RM: Financial Report Submission: Errors With Stale Data, View Object FSGSubmissionAM.FSGSubmissionPVO1 Contained No Record [ID 1099837.1]).
Thanks,
Hussein

Financial reporting and balance carry forward at Line item level

Hello
We are in the process of implementing a new GL and using it to create Balance Sheet and P&L statements in BW.
We have installed the new datasource for GL line items 0FI_GL_14 and loaded the data to a DSO. Installed the 0FI_GL_10 (totals infosource) as well.
Also we created a custom infocube on the line items DSO and want to use it to report against a Financial Statement Version. In order to do that we created a
virtual cube with the FM and added the necessary Financial Statement Item and other key figures in the virtual infocube.
Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube? Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
How do we address the Balance Carry Forward on the Line items cube? Since the balance carry forward is done on totals only, and the cube I created is a detailed cube is it possible to carry forward balances at that level?
Also can someone let me know what is the best approach to create financial reports and give drill down capability at the document level?
Thanks in Advance
Raju Kosuru

Now I want to know is it the correct way to create financial reports?
NO .. Its not.
Can we load totals and Line items to the same infocube?
NO
Do we have to load totals to a different DSO/Cube or same Cube?
Yes.. SAP has delivered C10 for Totals and O14 for line items... No point in creating cube for line items i.e. on top of O14.
Balance carry forward can be done on totals only (that is how totals extractor _10 is designed), U can not do that on the Line items. Pls contact functional consultant for clarification
Best approach is RRI (Jump targets) for _10 report to _14 report to give drill down capability at the document level.
