Report Painter Elements

Dear friends:
I am working on 4.7 v. I have copied a report and making changes to meet my requirments. In report painter, I selected Edit - Hidden rows - delete. Some of the elments i am unable to delete. The system shows the messages " You cannot delete, because element Custom Car is dependent "
I tried to delete the element using Edit - Elements - Delete. I am getting the same error.
How to develop a Hierarchical structure in report painter?
How to overcome the problem?Please advise.
Regards
Rajendra

If you ever encounter a "dependent" error message it means that the line that you want to delete is part of a formula most probably it is part of a total or subtotal, so search for any lines that has formula lines and delete those lines form the formula or the whole formula line so you can reset the formula correctly.
To develop Hierarchical structure in report painter , the easiest way is to create a set in GS01, there you can create multi level sets thereby you can make use of this structure for other reports as well.

Report Painter: Separate formula in each cell of a column

Hi,
I'm creating a report painter report using GRR1. My 1st column is particulars (which includes revenue & costs) and 2nd column is % to sales. I need a separate formula in each cell of column2 to divide the contents of the respective cell in column1 by sales (the figure in 1 cell) & then multiply it by 100. Is this possible? If yes, then how?

Any suggestions guys????

Re: Report Painter Diff. formula in same column.

Hi,
I have some queries for report painter.
I have 2 columns, A & B. I've created column C and the first 5 row I would like to have a set of formula such as A10 and for the same column, the row 6 to 10 from column B, I want to have formulate B5-10.
My question is, whether it's posible to have 2 formula defined in the same column because value for each row may need to apply the formula differently.
Thx & Rgds

You can do this, although you need to split the columns into "Sections". You also need to remove the column headers so they are not repeated between each section.
They almost act similar to a page break, without actually breaking the column over pages.

You can then have different calculated key figures within the same column.
To amend sections, go to Formatting > Section Overview/Section Layout.

Report Painter: Incorrect formula component = Y002

Dear All,
I have a error messagewhile creating the Formula in GRR1
Incorrect formula component = Y002
    Message no. KX430
Diagnosis
    An incorrect component was discovered in one of the formulas.
Procedure
    You can get an overview of the valid syntax for formulas by pressing F1 in the Formula Editor. Check whether all formula components are written correctly. If operators are allowed the following applies: Operators such as 'ABS' for an absolute amount must be written as follows 'ABS     K1 )' where 'K1' represents a valid key figure. If variables may be used
    in formulas in the application, these begin with '&' and have a maximum of 9 characters (including '&').
Regards

You are seeing a syntax error. What columns do you currently have? Which formula are you trying to create? Even an extra space or absence of it could probably trigger an error message. If you are using just = Y002, probaby you are trying to have another column with the same values of Y002. If it is used within a condition, may be some space is missing.
Can you describe what is the report you are trying to create?

COPA Report Painter

Hi,
I consider possibility of using conditional expression 'IF' in COPA report painter in formulas. Is it possible ? I am asking because syntax from common report painter is not correct in COPA it means e.g.:
IF Y001 <> 0 THAN Y001 ELSE Y002.
It would be beneficial for me.
regards,
Rafal S.

Hi again,
Thanks for reply, but are you sure that the syntax is correct for COPA report painter formulas ? I have tried to apply it and after the check system gives me "incorrect syntax" message.

Rafal S.

Report painter- problem in creating formula variable- ps

Hi Experts,
i have copied report 6P3 - 6PP1-001 Act/Com/Total/Plan from library in report painter.
our requirement is we want two user fields from cj20n in this report. they are prps-usr04
and prps-usr05.
i have added these in header as special text variable as they were ALREADY available at header under
MASTER DATA FOR PROJECTS / WBS ELEMENT IN REPORT-WRITER.
now my requirement is to add new columns. for that i required these two fields in formula.
but as they are not present in formula component i am not able to get it.
what should i do to enter these fields in component list in formula?
PLEASE GUIDE ME?
AMOL

ActRunningBal is a running total calculated in crystal or database field? If it is a database field then you can try this
if {command.CR-Amount} <>0 then
{command.CR-Amount}
else
previuous()+previous({command.Dr-Amount})
If it is a running total you cannot apply previous function on it.

Report Painter Report - Leading White Spaces in Cost Element

When calling up a report painter report, e.g. S_ALR_87013613, with cost element characteristic in Office integration/Microsoft Excel as output parameters, the cost element (row item) is indented with white spaces. The number of white spaces seems to be in relation with summation levels (sub-totals) visible in the left panel. For some cost centres that only have limited transactions, such as no posting to salary account group, there are less levels of summation, meaning less leading white space in cost elements. Is there any way to eliminate or have a fixed number of leading white spaces in cost elements?
We export the report to Excel worksheet for further processing. VLOOKUP function is used to read the cost element into another workbook. The inconsistent number of leading white spaces creates a problem for the formulas to work properly.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Regards,

Hello,
There are different ways of downloading the report to excel. One option is
System ==> List ==> save (to local file)
Please try with other options.
If still not working, then the work around would be
You can put ctrl+H (replace all spaces)
Then text to columns
Hope this works.

Ravi

New column with formula in Report Painter - GRR2

Hi gurus,
I want to insert a new element in my new report painter created by GRR2. I took a standard report and I copied the report. I know how to insert a new element.
The problem is I want to choose the value of a field in PROJ table for create a formula in my report. The users insert a value in user-define fields of CJ20n, and i would like to choose this value for create a formula in my report.
Can I create a formula to take this value from the table PROJ? If I need to create a characteristic for choose this field, as I can create?
Thanks.

Hi,
My question is:
Can i pick a value of a table (proj) for use in formula of report painter??

Report Painter - Use of Constants / Local Formula Variable

Hi,
I am using constant and/or local formula variable in report painter in FSI.
I could use both the values for calculating percentages, ie. it can be used for multiplication or division. However, when I try to use it for addition or subtraction, I am getting the error message no. KH206.
In all cases, I am using different values in the formula, i.e. a absolute figure and a GL based figure.
I am not able to understand, why it even allows me for calculating percentage.
Can anyone help me in using a absolute figure for input and thereafter use it in addition / subtraction.
I would prefer an immediate solution to this as I am in the final stages of this report.
Full points guaranteed.....

Hi Kash,
Thanks for your reply..
Can you elaborate bit further. You mean to say I should create a Constant with some value.
Thereafter how should I bring that in the form. But, How do I enter the Constant in the Formula... There is no key for entering any text in the formula.. there are only ID (the values which we bring in the form and which can be selected for the formula) and numbers which can be entered.
So how do I enter the name of the Constant?
I tried just keying in the name of the Constant, and I could check the formula also, However, while saving the form, I am getting an error,
Element WCaplimit Bis letztem ATag bis &$BISD is not defined correctly -> check definition
Message no. KH206
Diagnosis
In element WCaplimit Bis letztem ATag bis &$BISD the system adds quantities and values or different currencies.
Can you please revert back with step by step solution?
Appreciate your prompt reply.... Thanks

Formula line in Report painter

Hello,
Can I use 'IF' phrase in Formula column in Report painter ? If so what's the right Syntax .
Thank you,
Ran.

Hi Ran,
Glad to hear from you too!
Did you put '.' in the formula at the end of the message? You shouldn't in this kind of statement, so the expression should be:
IF X005 > 0 THEN X004 + X003 + X005 ELSE X004 + X003
Regards,
Eli
P.S. I tried it, just in case, and it works.

Report Painter Request - Cost Center and WBS Element

Hi Everyone,
Currently, my company settles all project related expenses through to a cost center by way of an internal settlement cost element (category 21). The issue with this is that when the expense gets to the cost center, they lose all visability as to where the expense originated, such as salaries or travel expense (category 1 cost elements). We can't switch the settlements to the originating cost element from wbs to cost center just because of the additional data/volume that will cause. My thought was to create a report painter that can run by cost center but also show the wbs's that settle to that cost center and group the expenses by primary cost element (cat 1). I'm assuming that there is a way to marry a cost center and wbs element by way of the wbs settlement rule but how would that be done for reporting purposes? I've seen it done before by way of a nightly job that created sets based on the combination of cost center and wbs but I'm not sure how that was done. Any advise and examples?
Example:
Cost Center: IT
WBS: A.0017.01.01 (settles to cost center IT)
Postings made:
1. CC IT and CE 552000 "salaries"..............................$20,000
2. WBS A.0017.01.01 and CE 552000 "salaries"........... $5,000
3. Settlement of WBS to CC (expenses flow through to CC IT by way of CE 985000)
I want to run CC IT and see that the account 552000 really shows $25,000 and can be broken down by cost object (CC and WBS by the amounts above)
Thanks,
Pete

Hi Peter,
I had a similar requirement and used report painter report group 1SHK-002 (in library 1VK).
I took a copy of the standard and ameneded it slightly, I switched the explode so it occured on the cost center not cost element.
The report runs so that direct costs on the cost center are shown at primary cost level. And values settled to the cost center are shown on the partner object. In your case i guess WBS Elements (Partner ObjType WBS).
Now in my case I didnt need cost element breakdown on partner level, just on cost center so effectively I have(sorry for text alignment but I hope you get the idea):
GL1   ............. 100
GL2   ............. 250
+ Cost center1 total ....350
GL3 .............   50
GL4 ............. 100
+ Cost center2 total.... 150
Primary Cost Total ..... 500
X-YZ-1.200 .............   50
X-YZ-1.400 ............. 100
+ WBS total ............. 150
IO 1............. 100
IO 2 ............. 100
+IO total ............. 200
Partner Total............. 350
Overall total ............. 850.
Its not exactly like your requirement but it might be a good report for you to work with to get what you need.

Cost element description now showing in Report painter

Hi,
I selected to display KEY and DESCRIPTION in the report layout settings for a report painter however the report is displaying only the cost element number and not the description in the rows.
In this case, how to display the cost element description in the report painter rows?

Hi,
ensure that KEY + DESCRIPTION is selected in the layout settings. Description will only appear if it is maintained in the logon-language (means if your logon language is EN but cost element texts are not maintained in EN no descripiton can be seen).
best regards, Christian
