Report Painter - Business Area & GL Account Question

Hi All,
Here is the problem I'm attempting to solve. In the Rows we have all the inventory GL/Accounts and company codes. In the columns we have the Period and Business Area.
The issue the company has all of their postings in one company code going into a "blank" business area(long story here and we're attempting to get that changed). But in the meantime I have dollars in these blank business areas being captured along with another business area. For example we have BA identified as Parts & Service and Machines. I've set it up right now so that all blank business areas are captured with the Parts & Service column. Now comes the problem. There is one specific GL Account that should be captured under the Machine BA column. Does anyone know how to use a formula in a column to pull just the one GL Account under the blank business area. I could then create another column that adds the Machines column(that includes all the GL Accts) and the Blank column with just the one specific GL Account.
I thought I could do this with formulas in a column but I'm having difficulty getting it to work. I was hoping somone might have a suggestion on how to accomplish this task. Your ideas and help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please double click on the cell in which you would like to have the specific value. You would be given options of selecting Characteristics with key figures. Select and do the needful.
You would get the desired value here. Thereafter you can either create another column or use the value such fetched in the same column and then hide the relevant row.
Hope this is useful.
Assign pts please.

Report painter- business area and Cost center

Hi All,
we have a requirement to create the Report painter report where in the Revenue will be By business area and cost of the particular cost center by Cost element.
i.e revenue by Business area against cost by department.
It it possible to use report painter to create such report?. when i was going through the report painter it does not allow me to pull the cost by department .
Best regards

Hi,
Business consolidation is for more of consolidation purpose and cost center grouping is more for management reporting purpose for cost control purposes.
Both the organizational units serve for different purposes. Consolidatied business will not have much meaning unless you go with EC-CS.
Cost Center Groups are much for control purpose and help in managerial reporting.
Business Units are part of FI Organizational Structure and Cost Centers are part of CO organizational structures.

Library develop report with report painter in Cost Center Accounting

Dear experts!
Now, I'm getting some issue about finding library for developing report with report painter.
Really, i don't know libraries that are used to develop report with report painter for Cost Center Accounting.
Can tell me about them?
Help me, please.
Best regards, Huy

Hello Huy,
CCA reports would be based on table CCSS, you can go to transaction GRR2 and check the various libraries listed there and find a suitable one. You can also use libary 1AB which contains the various cost center variance reports or you can use transaction GR21 to create your own library.

Trading partner on Business Area Clearing Account

Hi,
I have configured business area wise financial statements for my client. But when doing cross-company code postings, the BA is not getting transferred to the company code clearing accounts. Is there a way to get it to transfer automatically ?
In the mean time, I am using Balance sheet adjustments to resolve this, but the trading partner on the original document line item is not getting copied to the business area clearing account. Is there a way to get the trading partner to get transferred to the BA clearing account?
Also, by looking at the line items of the BA clearing account, is there a way I can determine the original account that was adjustment?
Any recommendations of how I can handle this are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
ALAS

hai,
Goto T.Code Se38 and give SAPF180K it will display any error. then you correct the error and rerun again F.5d & f.5e. It will work.
Problem because of Reconciliation acount. It means all the reconciliation account need to be mapped in OBXM with business area clearing account.
And also Cash Gl account needs cash clearing account. because you will not able to enter business area in Cash account. (corresponding entry will have the business area)
Try this. If you have any problem mail me back.

Report Painter - Totals are different on face of report & line item details

Hello,
We have a report designed in report painter. Thye lIbrary table is GLPCT.
When we run the report system gives e.g. 100 $ on face of report. However when we double click on that line to get a line item details reoprt the value is different. It is either less or more than the amount diaplayed on initial report.
Please can you suggest what coule be the probable reason for this anamoly.
Thaks & Regards
Shreenath

Hi Sreenath,
when you double-click on a line you are jumping to another report.
The report you are jumping to has either been defined as a linked report by you, or it has been copied from an original SAP-report if you started the creation of your report by copying a standard SAP report.
The sending report tries to pass on all the selections for the cell you double-click to the line-item report. For standard SAP reports it is guaranteed that this should work and the line item report gives the sames results as the report you are calling it from.
For self-defined reports, this may not always work. I have had problems especially when calling line-item reports from sum-lines of my self-defined report. The reason was that the selections could not be passed on properly.
Example:
line 1: selection on account X and profit center A
line 2: selection on account Y and profit center B
line 3: sum of line 1 and line 2
Now, when I double-click on a cell of line 3 and jump to line items, it passes on the selection idependently, i.e.
accounts: X, Y
profit center: A, B
the line item report now gives me all values for all combinations of accounts X and Y and profit centers A and B.
It does not take into account the combined selections in my original report.

To be able to report by business area at a header level

Business area reporting at a header level in Procurement/AP Subject Areas
At present client is doing a large number of manual lookups in Excel to add Business area detail to certain OBI procurement reports. Reasons for why we are having to do this includes that the report is written at a header level but the business area detail is stored at a distribution level or the document has no distribution lines.
What client would therefore like is for us to devise solutions that would allow us to include the business area detail. Possible solutions that I can think of include doing a join between the employee name, preparer name and requestor name to the HR business area detail, and the way that the ‘Procurement and Spend - Employee Spend’ joins the employee name and approver name to the business area fields maybe something that you can review as a solution.
I am hoping that you can come up with a number of solutions which we can then explore in further detail.
The key subject area that we would like this business area detail to be available in is the ‘Financials - AP Transactions’ area but if would certainly be beneficial to have in the ‘Procurement and Spend - Purchase Orders’ and ‘Procurement and Spend - Purchase Requisitions’ subject areas as well if it is feasible.
Can any plz.. guide the possible soultions we can do with this CR

Bonjour,
Je suppose vu votre prénom que vous parlez français lol bien que l'anglais ne me pose pas de problème.
En fait, il s'agit de plusieurs factures (avec différentes business area) pour un même fournisseur.
Au moment de la F110, le système comptabilise le paiement via une seule pièce mais avec plusieurs postes (un par business area) et la contrepartie le compte banque.
La case n'est pas cochée pour le champ T001-XGSBE donc je ne pense pqs que le problème provienne de là.

Business area in accounting document

Hi guys,
I have a problem in accounting document generated by VF01.
The business area displayed is retrieved from TVTA while the user wants the business area to be taken from T134G.
Do you have an idea what is the basis in getting the value for the Business Area (gsber)???
Do you know also of user-exit that will perform such condition?
Thanks.

Hi
It means it's a parameter (under the company code) used by accounting. In generally a sales area is linked to only one business area: so in accounting it can manage the sales from different area by business area:
I.e. for the same company code, it can use the business are to separate the amount of sales from different sales area.
I think the account document should have the same business area (b.a.) of the sales document, if u change it in exit EXIT_SAPLV60B_008 u could have different b.a. in sales and accounting document.
So the best solution is set the correct b.a. in the sales document and then SAP'll move it to the next documents automatically.
U can decide which rule has to be used to determine the B.A., these rules is set in the sales area (so TVTA table): field TVTA-REGGB:
001 - B.A. from T134G (your case?)
002 - B.A. from TVTA
003 - B.A. from based on SalesOrg/DistCh/ItemDivision (from TVTA)
In this rules are not good for u, the best solution is set the correct B.A. in sales order, so u can use the user-exit USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP and/or USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAK in inlcude MV45AFZZ.
If you want to allows to set the B.A. manually u should implement the exit USEREXIT_COBL_SEND_ITEM and/or USEREXIT_COBL_SEND_HEADER in MV45AFZB: in the sales document the b.a. can't be changed manually by default.

Report Painter: CO area must be specified

Dear Gurus,
I am new to Report Painter, now I want to create a new report for Actual expanses and Budget expanses. But after I create my variable and my Row and Column, it come out error 'CO area must be specified --> Add in general data selections or rows/column' when I want to save it.
Any idea what had I missed out ?
Can you please provided my any study material or step by step guide? I was quite confusing regarding this report painter.
Thank you very much.
Warm regards

Hi,
Perameters in General Data Selection apply to the entire repost (every column and row). Since the four columns of your report are having different period and possibly different FY, you can not put these two parameters in General Data Selection. As my previous posting explained, in addition of standard variable &1PERIV and 1CGJAHE, you will need to define 3 more variables for period FY respectively:
Period Variable 1 - ZPERI2 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 12 THEN '&1PERIV' + 1 ELSE 1
Period Variable 2 - ZPERI3 - Formula: IF '&ZPERI2' < 12 THEN '&ZPERI2' + 1 ELSE 1
Period Variable 3 - ZPERI4 - Formula: IF '&ZPERI3' < 12 THEN '&ZPERI3' + 1 ELSE 1
FY Variable 1 - ZGJAHR2 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 12 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
FY Variable 2 - ZGJAHR3 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 11 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
FY Variable 3 - ZGJAHR4 - Formula: IF '&1PERIV' < 10 THEN '&CGJAHE' ELSE '&CGJAHE' + 1
You then use variable 1PERIV and 1CGJAHE for column 1, ZPERI2 and ZGJAHR2 for column 2, ZPERI3 and ZGJAHR3 for column 3, and ZPERI4 and ZGJAHR4 for column 4.

Crystal Report Server / Business objects XI R2 questions

Hello all,
If this isn't the place to post these questions please advise which forum is. Thank you in advance.
We are running XI R2 SP5 of Crystal Report server (11.5.11.1470). I have some general questions...and are fairly new to this version. Although I have been developing CR for many years.
There is plenty of discussions here about "Universes" in BO, but for my deployment I don't think this applies. Correct?
I have created list of values (LOV) using Business View Manager (11.5.11.1470) and would like to
1. give the user an ability to select an "ALL" option in the report.
2. If the LOV is large, it only returns a partial list.
Now i have search these forums and other and found discussions regarding the above but none seemed to relate to my version. Either I'm missing some component or just slow.
Any advice / help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Suresh
Thank you for the detailed response. I tried your suggestions and neither works.
LOV issue:
Within the Business View manager, i right-click on the LOV object and click "Edit List of Values..." and i get a dialog box that only shows me Available fields, List of Value Fields used, description field, and Referenced objects. Along with buttons for Clear Instance & Refersh Status.
I have read similar posts to what you suggested but never get to the same place as described.
Please advise....
as for _Max Number LOV _
I have researched this as well and found the same suggestion you made. But the PRM file does not have that value, and the file contains all XML code
Now what???
Thanks
Mike

Report Writer report required by Business Area GSBER for table GLPCT ECC6

Please help,
I have a requirement for report writer report by Business Area (GSBER) for table GLPCT.
I am using Libruary PCA which has GSBER already activated
In report I am able to select GSBER in General Data Selection and generate.
However when I execute report I get error message GR410 "Characteristic GSBER cannot be combined with key figures" .
I have looked at SAPnotes 929889 1155524 and 358251, which describes solution to add field to CCSS table (structure CCR1S) however I cannot work out what structure to change for table GLPCT used in my report.
Steve
Solution was to use Libruary 8A3

Hi ,
If you are using the cube: 0FIAP_C20, then i guess you are using the standard extractor 0FI_AP_20 . One thing which i remember that there is a standard view in ECC : LFC1_AEDAT.
This view has two tables : LFC1 and BWFI_AEDA2.
LFC1 - Vendor master (transaction figures)
BWFI_AEDA2 - BW FI: Log Table for Changed Transaction Figures
This standard extractor uses table LFC1 to show vendor balances.
And the table BWFI_AEDA2 contains the log of the changes that has taken place business area wise and account no of the vendor wise .
Please check the view definition to confirm the same . Once you will see the joining conditions in this view you will get a clear picture of the above point .
So for your issue, you can do datasource enhancement of 0FI_AP_20 .
The logic will be based on LIFNR,BUKRS,GJAHR available from the datasource , fetch the business area from this view and populate it in your datasource .
But first check in the table BWFI_AEDA2 whether for the field BWFI_AEDA2-TABNAME= lfc1 , business areas are maintained .
Hope the above reply was helpful.
Thanks & regards

Discoverer Report: How to find Business Area name from Report Name.

Hi
I opened a report in Disco Desktop 4 -> Resonsibiolity --> Report Name.
So I know Report name but don’t know which Business Area it belongs to.
How to find Business Area Name from Report Name?
Cheers
Vijay

Hi,
There is no relationship between reports and business areas. Each report can be built from many folders. Each folder can be in many business areas.
However you can try the following SQL which may give you the result you want for an v5 EUL. You will have to modify for Discoverer 4 EUL:
select distinct doc_name, obj.obj_name folder_name, bas.ba_name
from eul_us.eul5_documents doc
, eul_us.eul5_elem_xrefs xref
, eul_us.eul5_expressions exp
, eul_us.eul5_objs obj
, eul_us.eul5_ba_obj_links bol
, eul_us.eul5_bas bas
where xref.ex_from_id = doc.doc_id
and doc.doc_name = &your_report
and xref.ex_to_id = exp.exp_id
and obj.obj_id = exp.it_obj_id
and bol.bol_obj_id = obj.obj_id
and bas.ba_id = bol.bol_ba_id
