Report Painter Column Header to display on continuing page

Gods of FICO,
I've report painter issue. When out of a report is printed, and when it is longer than one page..... the column header description is not getting displayed on second page.
how can i show column header description on subsequent pages?
thanks

Hi,
I have the same issue. I have also de-selected the 'Allow row to break across pages' for the whole table but still the table breaks and continues on the next page.
I see that the question has been answers correct but no solution provided. I would appreciate if you could post the solution.
Regards,
Hakan

How to use Value Variable in Report Painter Column defined as Formula

Hi Gurus,
In report painter, how can I add one field (exchange rate) in selection screen, so that user can provide the exchange rate to be used, then execute the report, the exchange rate will used to multiple local currency amount.
The reason for this is we want use provided exchange rate to convert the amount from once currency to the other currency.
Alternatively I am studying the functionality of "Value Variable" and found that I can perform the task from this. I have created the value variable but when I am using the variable in Report Painter columns as "&ZVALVAR", system is giving me error. I read the help and it states that use the variable with "&" and do it as it is mentioned.
Can anybody suggest what I need to do to make it workable.
Thanks

I did try using the presentation variable, but that does not work too. I am setting session variable in the dashboard prompt (select 'request variable'). When I use presentation variable, it hard codes the value of the variable name.
sql is
select date from work_order where facility = @{p_facility}
the physical log sql is
select date from work_order where facility = 'p_facility'

Two Key figures in Report Painter column?

Dear Experts,
We have some company codes with group currency setup and others without this. I have created a report painter report with table GLT0. I want ability to produce a consolidated report for all the company codes.
However, when I define the report column, I can only select one basic key figure in the column viz. HSL - Local currency or KSL - Group currency for example. In my report I have selected HSL since majority of the company codes report on local currency.
Is there a way that the program can be told to change the basic key figure during report execution to KSL - Grp Curr for select company codes only?
Or is there a way to have two basic key figures in a report painter column? I know I sound foolish on this question. But still I ask this.
Any thoughts, pls share with me. Thanks.
Vishal Thakur

You are right Sue. But unfortunately way back in the 90's when our company implemented SAP, those company codes did not activate the 2nd LC as USD. Thus, these companies only have figures updated in the 1st LC which is USD.
Subsequently, we acquired new companies overseas and then for these co's we switched on the 2nd LC as USD with the 1st LC as the country specific currency.

How to display a caracteristic in report painter column

Hi guys,
Got a question about reports using Report Painter,
apparently it seems that lines are for caracteristics and columns are for key figures but would it be possible to have columns displaying only caracteristics without any key figure?! If so would like you to give me some hint.
Thanks in advance.

Interactive Report (IR) column heading: filtered items number & flashlight

Hello everyone
several hours of searching through the forum did not provide me with leads or answers to 2 questions. Both are related to the IR column heading menu and options. Let's start with a copy of the relevant portion of the interactive report help screen:
Column Heading Menu
Clicking on any column heading exposes a column heading menu.
[snip]
Text Area is used to enter case insensitive search criteria (no need for wild cards). Entering a value will reduce the list of values at the bottom of the menu. You can then select a value from the bottom and the selected value will be created as a filter using '=' (e.g. column = 'ABC'). Alternatively, you can click the flashlight icon and the entered value will be created as a filter with the 'LIKE' modifier (e.g. column LIKE '%ABC%').
List of Unique Values contains the first 500 unique values that meet your filters. If the column is a date, a list of date ranges is displayed instead. If you select a value, a filter will be created using '=' (e.g. column = 'ABC').
Q1: Why do I not see a flashlight icon? I looked everywhere in the report definition to "enable" it, to no avail.
Q2: Although we've found IRs to be incredibly useful and embraced by end users, we are having issues when dealing with large datasets. Let's look at searching for people's first/last name in our CONTACTS table. The table is ~28,000 names long. If one attempts to use Column Heading menu to "filter" for any name outside the first 500 unique values, the search does not work. Yes, I know that a workaround is to use Actions Menu icon filter... but, it sure is misleading to have a search which does not go beyond letter B in the list of last names. Furthermore, I do not see a way to DISABLE Column Heading Text Area, and avoid user confusion.
I suspect that "List of Unique Values contains the first 500 unique values" was set for the performance purposes. Is there a way to set that number anywhere? Have it customized for each column? (columns county and state could be <100, for example)
Thanks an advance to any advice.
Vojin

@Prabodh: what you say is only changing the default image for the column selector at the search bar level. What i think is being looked for is an icon on the popup when a column header is clicked in an IR. Don't bother: there is none.
@Vojin, Tonibony:
I also ran into this problem with IRs and the useless column header box. If you want to hide the unique values list, it is a bother. First of all, you can't disable the finding of values, this is embedded in the widget ajax code. Then if you want to just hide the list, there is no real event you can hook up to. The poping up of the box is an ajax callback, and is part of the IR javascript, but this callback does not trigger any event (no apexafterrefresh for example, which is understandable). I've worked around this by overriding/extending the method which is called when ajax is done loading within the IR code. Here is a piece of code which does this (call it on page load):
   // _Finished_Loading is called when the IR is done with a GET action
   // because the posts are synchronous in this report, and no events
   // or hooks are available, the best way to preserve functionality
   // yet extending it is to override the original function, yet
   // keep the base code
   // apexafterrefresh cant be used since it is not triggered after
   // the widget ajax
   var or_Finished_Loading = gReport._Finished_Loading;
   gReport._Finished_Loading = function(){
       //overriden, but still have to call orinigal!
      or_Finished_Loading();
      //SORT_WIDGET is the widget containing all the header elements
      if(gReport.current_control=='SORT_WIDGET'){
         // hide the original dropdown box
         $("#apexir_rollover_content").hide();
   };If you're interested, i've recently developed a plugin for use in my interactive reports which works around some of these limitations. For me, the headers are much more userfriendly than the actions > filter menu. So what i've done is: hide the orignal dropdown, and turn the searchfield into an autocompletion field, which will progressively search through the distinct column values in the IR with ajax. I've even made an option to have the searching behave like a "contains" or a "like". I'm working on a post about it, with background, documentation and source code. I'll add a post here when i finish it up, you can see if that helps you.
I also would like to add a button later on which will simply add the entered value as a "like %value%" filter. I know how to do this and what to do, i'm just a bit short on time at the moment. I actually think that adding the button in the layout may be the hardest part... :')

Report Painter Column Order

Is it possible to rearrange columns in a report painter report? Please let me know how it can be achieved.
Edited by: Dhimbak on Dec 2, 2009 3:44 PM
Edited by: Dhimbak on Dec 2, 2009 3:45 PM

Hi!
If you can modify the report itself, you can modify the column order as well.
1. Click on the column's herder
2. Mark the column with F9 button
3. Click on the destination column's header
4. Choose shift with F8 button
That's all

IR Report Freeze Column Header Row

In Interactive Report, Can we freeze the column header row ? This is a most wanted requirement asked by customers. More than 50 times requested in past month.
Please help

I have been playing with this problem and came up with this potential solution that has so far worked for me.
Caveats: I am new to this type of coding so check it carefully. It only works with Internet Explorer (its what we use at work). I hope to have a Firefox version someday. Some code used was found online. I gave it proper credit in my usage.
Instrcutions:
In the HTMLHeader of the Edit Page, paste the code shown below. It will lock/freeze the header of an interactive report and (optionally), any number of columns to the left of the report.
To customize it for your needs,
1. edit the line that reads: var LOCKED_COLUMNS=2; to reflect the number of columns to be locked (0 won't lock anycolumns)
2. edit the style section that reads:
<code>
div#apexir_DATA_PANEL
width: 300px; height=200px; overflow: scroll; position:relative; float:left;
</code>
to reflect the width and height for you scrolling window.
3. optionally turn of the pagination (under Pagination in the Report Attribute pagefor the region) if you want to scroll through your entire dataset without paging [possible performance implications].
I tested this with Apex 3.2 and with several themes (1, 3 and8). Hopefully it will work for you.
The code follows:
=====================================
<code>
<script>
// This code copied from: http://javascript.about.com/library/bldom08.htm
document.getElementsByClassName = function(cl)
var retnode = [];
var myclass = new RegExp('\\b'+cl+'\\b');
var elem = this.getElementsByTagName('*');
for (var i = 0; i < elem.length; i++)
var classes = elem.className;
if (myclass.test(classes)) retnode.push(elem[i]);
return retnode;
// End of code copied from: http://javascript.about.com/library/bldom08.htm
var LOCKED_COLUMNS=2;
function applyCSS()
var data_Table=document.getElementsByClassName('apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA');
var tr_Tags=data_Table[0].getElementsByTagName('tr');
for (var i=0;i<tr_Tags.length;i++)
var tab_Cells=tr_Tags[i].childNodes;
for (var j=0; j<LOCKED_COLUMNS; j++)
if (tab_Cells[j].nodeName != 'TD')
{ tab_Cells[j].setAttribute('id', 'Lock_Lateral_Vertical'); }
else
{ tab_Cells[j].setAttribute('id', 'Lock_Lateral'); }
window.onload=applyCSS;
</script>

Report Painter - column missing

Hi Experts,
I am creating a new report using t-code: CXR4, I have created a form (a) for the two axis (matrix) with all my report format and I created also another form (b)which is just one axis with key figures.
After replacing the columns with form (b) in form (a), I noticed that there are 4 columns missing.
For example in form (b) I have 20 columns created but when replaced in form (a) columns it only displayed 16 column although I have displayed all hidden columns.
The missing 4 columns is the column in between 1 - 20 columns.
Is anyone has any idea why is this happened?
Many thanks in advance!
Point will be rewarded for those useful.
Cheers,
WL

Thanks Barry,
I have checked in the next sections/page right but the missing columns are in between the 20 columns...Eg. column no. 15 -18 is not shown in the page/form but rest are in the form. Appreciate your expert advise please.

Hi,
You can modify the Header Text of the report. In transaction code GRR2 (Report change), select the report which needs to be changed and go to Menu Path >
Extras > Report Texts > Header.
Here, you can modify the text as per your requirements.
Thanks

Report Painter - Problem with Currency Display

Hi Gurus,
I created a Report Painter (Tx: GRR1, Library: 9P1) using Basic key figure SWKG (Currency: USD)
When I executed the report using a user XXX, this shows amounts in correct currency: USD. However, when I executed the report using a user YYY, this shows amounts in incorrect currency.
I reviewed SUIM transaction and compared both users and no have difference. Next I reviewed SU01 transaction and in Parameters there were some differences, y added parameter one bye one from XXX to YYY user, I executed the report again but the error persist.
Is there other user configuration that I can see?
Thanks in advance.
José Luis

Hi Sachin,
I reviewed RPA0 transaction and both users are the same properties.
I just created a new user ZZZ with copy of YYY, executed the report painter and it shows the amounts in correct currency, this is strange.
Thanks for your help.

Matrix Reports - How to restrict no. of columns to be displayed in single page ?

Hi all,
This is a problem I have been facing since Reports 2.5.
In a matrix, I can set a restriction on the number of rows to displayed by specifying Maximum no. of records per page on the repeating frame generating the rows.
But the same solution on the repeating frame generating columns has a disastrous effect.
Can any one tell me how to handle this ?
Thanks in advance.

Report Painter: Column Setting

Dear Gurus,
Can I set a column only display value based on few GL code listed? Is that I can directly set it in GRR2 or have to go GS12?
Let say I have actual column and budget column, I only want GL code related to welfare display in budget column, but actual column display all the value. Is that possible to make it?
Please guide.
Thank you very much!
Warm regards

Hi,
Using your example, if the welfare related cost elements can be specified as a range, in the report definition, you can directly enter that range as CE 'From' and 'To' in the budget column. Enter something like 1 to 999999999 in the actual column.
A better way to do this is to use sets. Tcode GS01; table CCSS; field KSTAR; set type BASIC; Name ZWELFARE; you can specify more than on lines of 'from' and 'to' values (as long as they do not overlap). You then use the set in the report definition by flagging the set indicator and entering the set.

Ming

How to change order of report painter columns

I have a report which shows the columns in one order when in design mode in GRR2 but when the report runs, the columns display in a different order. When in design mode, you can see the actual output order by clicking the form overview button and selecting the columns tab.
I am trying to figure out how to set the column order, short of deleting all the columns and recreating them.
Does anyone know if there is an easy way to do this?
Thanks all!
Bob

Doug,
using MDC with SAP is ok. Try the following:
- Use SE14->Edit->Storage Parameter->For new creation and specify the ORGANIZIE BY DIMENSION clause.
- Go to the change-mode for the table in SE11. Switch to the 'Fields'-Tab and select the complete second line. Then click on 'Cut'.
- Now select the first line in the same way and click on 'Paste'. By doing so you moved the field at position 2 to position 1.
- Save the changes, click on 'Check' and, if that succeeds, click on 'Activate'.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Johannes
