Report Calculation

We have a report that calculates monthly interest charges so we can do debit memos each month (#4395 Interest to be Charged). We are currently compounding interest each month - the interest calculation takes the entire past due balance (including previous interest charges) and calculates interest on that.
However, we can no longer compound interest monthly.
Can we have the calculation changed to only charge interest on past due balances that do not include previous debit memos for interest?

I suppose you could, however that depends on the defined query (or queries) and the objects you use.
If the amount you are retrieving is including the due balances and the previous debit memos then you need to have an object available which can make a distinction between those 2 amounts. If that object is available then you can use it to only perform the calculation on amounts which are due balances.

Item Transaction History Report - Calculation for creating 'Running Total'

Hello
Using Oracle Discoverer, we have written a report that pulls back all Inventory Transactions (by item number). This report lists both transactions IN (e.g. receipts into the store) and OUT (e.g. issues out from the store).
Our customer would like an additional column, to represent 'Running Total', to be added to the report. This column needs to capture the running 'On Hand Quantity' for the associated Item, as each transaction (both transactions IN and OUT of store) is displayed.
For example, if the initial/first transaction for an item was a Receipt of 500, then this column (on the first line) should display 500. If the second transaction for the item was an issue of 15, then this column (on the second line) should display 485. If the third transaction was for an issue of 50, then this column (on the third line) should display 435. If the fourth transaction was for a receipt of 20, then this column (on the fourth line) should display 455 etc etc
I'm not sure how I'd write a calculation to cater for this (within discoverer) - do you know if this is achievable? Any help would be much appreciated. This would be easy enough to do in Excel, but I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to discoverer(!)
Many thanks
Ross

Hi,
You can generally do this type of calculation using analytic functions. You would partition by the item number and order by the transaction date in the analytic function. You can use SUM function (with an order by) to get a running total of a column in the report. You can SUM a calculation containing a CASE statement which changes the OUT transactions to a negative number. The SUM function will start at zero, so you then can use FIRST_VALUE function to get the first value for the item which you could then add to the totals.

BO XI 3.1 DeskI report Calculation mismatch in record values

Hi ,
I have an Calculation issue in one report after migrated from BO 5.1.6 to BO XI 3.1.
After refreshing two reports parallelly, BO XI 3.1 report 1st 3 records of two columns are not at all there in BO 5.1.6 report.
in XI 3.1 i am getting 3 more records compare 5.1.6.
And out of that one column recod values is not matching with 5.1.6, but these record values Sum of total is matching.
(Ex: Here is the report output im getting with mismatches
BO XI 3.1         BO 5.1.6
Age Value

Crystal reports- Calculation between two reports

Hi Experts
I have designed a sales and purchase transaction report using crystal reports and i have designed another report for accounting transactions like Excise Duty payable and receivables, Vat payable and receivables, Expenses(like EB, Maintenance) and so on. Finally I added accounting report as sub-report into First Report.
My question is, is it possible to made some calculations between sub-report and main report.
Hope some solutions from you.

Kala

Hello,
right upto the linking is good?
Right now you have to create a formula (which you might have already done for "Total expenses", you just need to alternate it slightly.
Example:
On 2nd report (subreport) You might have a formula like given below.
Instead of Numbervar CAvg, which is the last shown value in the below formula, you have to make it like Shared Numbervar CAvg.
Whileprintingrecords;
Numbervar TJs;
Numbervar TotalJobs=0;
Shared Numbervar CAvg;
Shared Numbervar CAvg=0;
TotalJobs := DistinctCount({lab_credits.credit_no},{lab_credits.reason_code});
CAvg:= TotalJobs /{@WorkingDays};
TJs:=TJs + CAvg;
CAvg
Do your calculation above.
Now in the main report you will create another formula which will look like below.
Whileprintingrecords;
Shared Numbervar CAvg;
Numbervar TAvg:=fieldname;
Numbervar TotalBoth:= Shared Numbervar CAvg+ Numbervar TAvg;
TotalBoth;
You will have a reset formula which will be placed ontop of the report header , group header if you are using grouping like this
Whileprintingrecords;
Shared Numbervar CAvg:=0;
SHared Numbervar TAvg:=0;
bearing in mind that we do not have to declare CAvg field here as it is being shared.
Hope this helps

Please allow more than 13 digits in the financial report calculation

Dear SAP development team,
I would like to suggest the financial report programming code or query or what else that is used to generate the financial reports (TB;P&L;BS) could allow the calculation of debit or credit more than 9223372036854. It made me laugh that it is not allowed.
Why I said so ? Here are the reasons:
1. The report data is not stored on a specific table
2. If the report has calculated debit or credit greater than 9223372036854 while report processing is taking place, the report should still be appears but the amount of debit or credit that greater than 9223372036854, please put the zero on the debit or credit.
I expect that we could still use the report either money overflow happened.
John

Hi, Yang
My colleagues came across that problem recently. I advised them to split the transaction and create several transaction instead thereby avoinding using more than 13 digits.
Another way that came to my mind is to create a new currency with excnage rate (say) 1:1000 . And create the transaction using this currency.
Can't say that both solutions are perfect but I am afraid these are only ones.

Crystal Report Calculation

Hello,
I am trying to a custom P&L report. The year end part is in a loop as it should add the previous balance to the current balance and display the total just as it looks in the SAP business one P&L report.
I have this formula below but it does not add up the totals row by row, but adds the same row total together hence not giving the cumulative total.
Local NumberVar result := Count ({JDT1.Debit});
Local NumberVar i := 1;
While i <= result Do
   Local NumberVar debit := {JDT1.Debit};
   result := i;
   i := i + 1;
{JDT1.Debit} + debit
Help me tweak this.

REPORT CALCULATION HELP NEEDED!!!

Hello
I have a report where i need to do some calculation .
I have 3 columns in my report Businesstype , Business Code & Fact . When i display the report i see the Business Code 1 - Business Code 5 in 5 rows . But sometimes the report contains Business Code 6 along with Business Code 1 - Business Code 5 then Business Code 6 needs to calculate SUM(Business Code 1-6) and display in one row .
Could anybody please leave me any suggestions .

Hi there,
Create a table
- On the first row create for each group to populate the data for Business Code [1-n] with a second column containing numeric values.
- On the second row use the sum function using current-group() function for the value that you want to calculate the sum for.
Hope this helps.

Report Calculations

Hello,
I'm new to the forum and new to business objects. I have a report that contains Name, count(field), sum(field). I created a variable to get the percetage.
variable = (count(field)/sum(field) *100.
When I ad my fields to the webi report everything works fine except for totals. when I add a percent or average on the variable it doesn't give me the correct results. I want to be able to select 1,2,4,10 people and for the report to calculate dynamically depending on the totals for each individual.
Name      count(field)      sum(field)            variable
Joe Joe      13                       40                        33%
smith, john 14                       32                        44%
Total:         27                        72                       ???
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Not sure how to make this work.
thanks

Hi Saravanan
thanks for the response. I’m still missing something but I’m not sure what it is. I created the new variable “INIT” its changing the INITIATIVE ID as its supposed to, but the calculation is still not correct. The lines in blue with no scores should not be counted. The total should be 2.5, I’m getting 2.67. The break down should be like this.
Initiative    sum(Score) by init
16                  0                                = 0
14                  6                                = 3     (6/2)
3                    6                                = 3    (6/2)
13                  4                                = 4     (4/1)
4                                                        10              10/4=2.5

How is the Sales Amount in the Sales Analysis Report calculated.

Hi,
I'm trying to develop a report similar to the sales analysis report of SAP.
I want to know how does SAP calculate the the Sales Amount column. I was using LineTotal column of Invoices + A/R credit memos, but it's not correct. I know i'm getting all the records because my total quantity and Gross Profit is correct.

Hi Vj Chris,
Try This
SELECT T0.[DocNum] as 'INV NO', T0.[DocDate] as 'INV DT', T0.[CardCode], T0.[CardName], T0.[DocTotal], T0.[GrosProfit], T1.[DocNum] as 'AR CR MEMO', T1.[DocDate] as' AR CR DT' , T1.[CardCode], T1.[CardName], T1.[DocTotal], T1.[GrosProfit], (T0.[DocTotal]-T1.[DocTotal]) as 'Final Amount', (T0.[GrosProfit]-T1.[GrosProfit]) as' Final GR Profit' FROM OINV T0 , ORIN T1 WHERE T0.[DocDate] >=[%0] and T0.[DocDate] <=[%1]
But this query better run when you are using in Crystal Report.
Thanks,

Financial reports- Calculations

Hi
In HFR .....In Row1 i have GEn2 members which expand dynamically. The number of rows are limited to 20 members by conditional suppression...
Now these 20 members values have to be divided by their total to get the %...
How can i do it dynamically
Itz like Row[1(1)]/Row[20] *100 ...Row[1(2)]/Row[20]*100...the values should be placed in nxt col.
Thanks

add a Formula Row beneath Row1. Row2 = Sum(Row1). Then in column B, row1, =[A,1]/[A,2]

I calculated by farmula with replacement path.
this -733.534 value is displaying only when any one of the two dates are missed then this value will displaying.
if both dates are in reporting calculated value is displyaing right. (currect result).

Performance of a report in Web Analysis??

Hi Guys,
•How do u improve the performance of report ?
•In a general store 10 products are there, In that only 8 products are sold. I need a report for the products which are not sold(for 2 not sold). How can u do that report?(apart from Product normal dimension are there,we have a data warehouse for all)
Thanks

Hi, I agree with Gerd - there's not much tuning you can do in Web Analysis (as compared to FR).
In looking at the query see if you can:
- move single hierarchy members into the POV
- have children and parent in the same row
- arrange dimensions in inverse outline order (faster for essbase retrieves)
- remove excessive formatting/suppression (or conditional formatting/suppression)
- push report calculations back to the data source
We have also found that using lots of dynamically calculated members also slows down reports, so try and limit the number of these.
Maybe build your report up from the basic report to see which dimensions are causing the issue. Or alternatively start with your report and remove columns ;-)
With regard to wishing to show only 2 items, you could add advanced conditional suppression to suppress rows with values.

Aggregation issue Bex report

Hi all,
I am facing the following aggregation issue at reporing level. BW system 3.5
Cube1
Material, Company code, Cost center, Material, Month,   Volume KF
Cube2
Material, Company code, Cost center, Material, Month,   Price KF
Multi provider
Material, Company code, Cost center, Material, Month,   Volume KF, Price KF
Report
- Global Calculated key figure 'Value' is based on basic KF's Volume KF, Price KF
- Time of aggregation is set to " Before aggregation" in propery of Calculated Key Figure.
- There is only one characteristics 'Company code' is used in report.
When, I execute this report, Calculated KF is not working (No values), If I change Time of aggregation " After aggregation" in propery of Calculated Key Figure, then It works but wrong values.Price gets aggregated(add ups) and multiply with Volume which is wrong.
Can you please give me a Ideal solution to resolve this.
Thanks,
Harry
