Remove symbols from Report Painter Report

Hi all,
We have a report painter report. The amounts in the report are displayed with a " * " symbol,  probably due to the amounts being added.
We would like to remove the " * " symbols from the columns. How is this possible.
Thanks for your response.
Regards,
Srikanth.

Hi,
I guess the column size is too small to display the whole amount. Enlarge the columns in the layout options in report painter.

  • Supress the -ve sign in report painter report - VERY URGENT

    Hi
    In a report painter report, can anybody please let me know how to display a negative value, for example, "-1234.56" as "(1234.56)".
    IT IS VERY URGENT

    Check If value is less than 0,
    then replace '-' with space ( to remove the '-' from the right end) and then Concatenate '-' and value into a variable.

    Hi,
    Report Writer enables you to report on data from multiple applications. Using functions such as sets, variables, formulas, cells and key figures, you can create complex reports that meet specific reporting requirements.
    The Report Painter is similar to the Report Writer, but is simpler to use.The main components of report painter are characterestics and basic key figure.
    The majority of reports end users use in the R/3 System is Report Painter reports. Most of these reports (@ 80+ %) began as Report Writer reports.
    The major difference is Report Painter uses a graphical interface (analogous to Notepad and MS Word).
    Very few R/3 users employ Report Writer – however, many still use, modify and develop reports using Report Painter. Report Painter permits complex groupings and drill-down reporting – very useful for such applications as FI-CO and SD. It can also be used interactively – allowing users to enter variables for specific steps; thereby permitting ‘drill-across' functionality.
    However, Report Painter does have its limitations; it can display only numeric data (excluding column headers) – therefore, short text, etc. is not available. It is much easier (quicker) to modify than ABAP and requires no ABAP expertise – however, many combine Report Painter with ABAP reports to fill-in many of the missing pieces. Layout design is archaic and rudimentary ~ therefore; many use Report Painter to ‘retrieve and massage the data' and eventually export it into Excel for end use.

  • GRR3 Deleted Report Painter report

    I deleted a Report Painter report in GRR2.  It no longer exists in table T008 or assigned to any report group.  However, the deleted report still appears in GRR3 under the respective library.  How can we remove permanently a deleted report from GRR3?

    Okay, good to know.  Now I have to figure out how to import an updated version of library, or the whole Report Painter tools.  Thank you Navneet for indirectly helping me resolve the problem.
    Problem is (indirectly) solved.

  • Process/stpes to modify the report painter reports...

    Hi,
        I want to modify the report painter report. Could anybody tell me how can we do this. Where can we do this and it would be helpful if any body advise with the steps.
    The requirement is to add one line in the current report painter report and remove one line from it.
    Regards....

    Hi,
    Modifying a report painter report is very similar to creating the report itself. Below mentioned are the steps in general, please use them as per your requirement.
    From the relevant application, choose Tools->Report Painter->Report->Create.
    The Report Painter: Create Report screen appears.
    You can also create Report Painter reports from any Report Writer screen. To do so, choose Report Writer->Report Painter-> Create report.
    Enter the name of the library the report is to use, and a name and description for the report. The report name can be a maximum of eight characters long. If you want to create your report using an existing Report Painter report as a basis, enter the name of the report that you want to copy under Copy from. Both reports must use the same library.
    Choose Create.The next screen displays an empty report containing four rows and four columns (this is the basic structure for a report). You define your report on this screen.
    Enter or change the description for the report by double-clicking the report description field.
    A dialog box appears in which you can enter a short, medium, and long text for the report description.
    Define the rows of your report.Rows contain a combination of characteristic values or formulas. Note the lead column at the first position of the rows. The Report Painter uses the lead column to access the rows. You can replace the description Lead column with a different term.
    Define the columns of your report. Columns contain a combination of a basic key figure and optional restricting characteristic values. You can also use predefined key figures to present key figures and characteristics that make business sense. For example, a number of predefined key figures are delivered for the libraries in Overhead Cost Controlling that can be copied directly into the reports, where they can be modified as required.
    Define general data selection criteria. The general data selection criteria restrict data selection for the report.
    Choose Save and then Execute to create the report. Assign the report to a report group.
    You have to display the report before you execute it, so that you can later change the report layout directly from the report list. Once you have defined a report, you can display and print out a table of contents with Extras->Overview.
    The overview contains the characteristics and characteristic values used in the individual sections, column blocks, and general data selection criteria. It also provides general information such as the user who last changed the report, the report name, and the standard layout assigned to the report, as well as details on the report formats.
    If you double-click an individual characteristic, you can see where this characteristic is used in the report definition.
    Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need an specific information.

  • Profit center group number on the report painter report.

    Hi,
    We have a client requirement where we have to develop Profit center by Functional Area report by using report painter report functionality, however we are able to bring profit center group description on to the report as per the requirement, but not able to get profit center group number displayed on the report.
    Can anyone please advice me if we can get the Profit center group number displayed on the report in Report painter report. Else let me know if we can get the requirement met by an ABAPER.

    Hi.
    First of all, through transaction GS01 create a set ID for profit centers.
    Give table GLPCT, let the set type be the default (basic set) and give field name RPRCTR. Then define the range of profit centers you want. If you want all the profit centers give * in the "from value field".
    Then create a variable through transaction GS11. Give table and field as above, choose variable type set and at the default set field choose the set you created.
    Finally, at report painter go to Edit/General Data Selection and select profit center.
    Check both flags (for entering sets and variables) and give at the form field the variable you've made.
    Now the progit center group will be available in the selection screen with default value the set you've made.
    Regards

  • Display Profit Center & GL Account in 2 Seperate Columns in Report Painter Report

    Hello All,
    I am building a Report Painter Report for Inventory Balances. As psrt of my requirement I have to display GL Account & Profit Center ina different Column & their Balances for each month on this Current Fiscal Period. As/of now I am only able to have both GL Account & Profit Center in the Same Lead Column? And it is perfect if I look on the Report but when I download all the GL Account & Profit Center are not seperated with Color, so it becomes confusing. I need to have  execlty the Report as Same Format S_PL0_86000030.
    How can this be achievable? Thanks for your valuable input?

    the account is probably in account group or set. Look for that one in report painter and then go to the set or account group and remove/add the account.

  • T.Code for Report painter report

    Hi,
    Is there a way to assign a T.Code to the Report painter report, so that users do not have to go to GR53.
    thanks & Regards
    Rose

    thanks Eli, I tried this in Sandbox and it looks good.
    You seem to know a lot about Report Painter, I hope you would be able to certainly help me understand this :
    My predecessor here, created a report painter report and then asked the ABAP team to copy the report painter program (its like a query name) to a Z Prpgram and assign a transaction code. As I hear this was done to avoid the authorization issues.. (???) when this was moved to Testing Dev client, all this worked But when we moved this to QA, the error "program doesnot exist" made us to change the zprogram to remove the logic that the program had to check for the Client, in which the report was created. We removed that but then it then includes started giving the same error. so this will surely not work.
    So, my question is : when this simple way of giving a report painter report a t.code with the defaults, would there be any auth issues that you can think of ???
    thanks in advance.
    Regards

    Hi
    The As on Date balance cant be cumulated...
    Eg; you bought inventory worth 10 million in Current year and as of now you have 4 million worth of inventory in stock
    Cumulated bal in this case is 10 mil and As on Date balance is 4 million... 4 million is what you will get in SAP reports
    The same Key figure which shows values in comp code currency can be used
