Report Painter Fonts & Formats

I have created some report painter reports, but cant find any way of changing the fonts that the results are displayed in?
Does report painter only allow one font to be used?
Thanks

是这样的，其实一般的报表可以不用去取report painter的结果，只需要直接取数据库表即可，但有些report painter做出
来的报表逻辑较复杂，而且顾问考虑到其它各种各样的因素，如果直接去取表，逻辑将会很复杂，很麻烦，而且今后
对数是个问题，所以就决定直接去拿report painter生成的报表，请帮忙想想法，谢谢。

Report painter font

Dear sirs,
can you please help me solve a customer requirement: to change the font that is used in our report painter reports. Can this be done? If yes, how can this be done? And who will be affected by the change? Is that user specific, report specific, report group specific setup?
Thank you, Otto

No solution ever found.

Account texts in Report painter

I created one report for more than one company code in report painter,
the format is
Account CoCode1 CoCode2 CoCode3 Total
XXXXX XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX XXX
When i tried to run the report the descriptions of the Accounts are not visable instead its displaying Account no twice. I checked the report setting and every thing is right. Lead columns settings are set to display description
If i remove the CoCode2, CoCode3 columns and assign CoCode in Parameters section the descriptions are visiable, All the CoCodes share common COA.
Please help me on this.Already searched in threads.But nothing help me out.

Report Painter/Report Writer - Urgent

Hi,
I am trying to created a account balance report for more than one company code in report painter,
the format is
Account      CoCode1 CoCode2   CoCode3   Total
XXXXX       XXXXX    XXXXX     XXXXXX   XXX
When i tried to run the report the descriptions of the Accounts are not visable instead its displaying Account no twice. I checked the report setting and every thing is right. Lead columns settings are set to display description
If i remove the CoCode2, CoCode3 columns and assign CoCode in Parameters section the descriptions are visiable, All the CoCodes share common COA.
Looks like Characteristic Company Code is driving this if it in column.
Does any have same problem.
Thanks

Hi,
Gl accoutn description will not be displayed if you assign company code under column instead is general data selection.
The master data text for the row characteristic depends on other characteristics.
In the report definition,you use the characteristics on which the master data text is dependent in the column defintion and not in the general selections.
Display of account text as a row text for the 'Account number' characteristic (RACCT). This master data text depends on the chart of accounts in FI-SL. The chart of accounts depends on the 'Company code' characteristic (BUKRS).
See the note no. 360096.
Hope this helps.
Please assign points as a way to say thanks.

Hi,
Well i generate a report which has two three columns.....
1) Description

3) Column 2 for fiscal year 2008 for comparison
Here after these columns we have unformated space as a column.
Now we tried to hide this column but the system is not allowing to hide this.
How can we remove this unformatted column/space from the print output.

Conditional formating in report painter (GRR2)

Hi all,
An end user ask me if it's possible to do a conditional formatting in a cell of report painter (run with GRR3) if the value is true (i.e. as in excel, you can colour a cell if it's less than zero and so on). I know that it's possible with the BEx (for SAP BI), xcelsius, crystal reports and surely with bussiness object. I can see that it's only available do the format for the all column or for a line, but I don't find the option for a cell with a condition (surely because it isn't available).
Please, confirm me if it is not available, because I'm a long time looking for a reply but I only find info about BEx, xcelsius and so on (nothing related with report painter, GRR2 and so on). But if it's possible, please let me know how to do it.
Thanks in advance
Best regards,
Eduardo

Hi,
I don't think that we can put the conditional formula. but we can do the calcualtion by row wise or column wise.
Thanks.

Report painter formatting problem

Hi
I was working on a report in GR32 and seems screwed up.Now the report's decimal is not coming up.When I goto formating and select the decimal option , decimal comes up but spacing between columns get affected.Can anybody tells me how to fix the formating issue of columns. I mean adding decimal,comma and space between columns ?
Thanks
Satya

i am explainig for report painter reports ( similar way must be there for report writer)
go to grr2
you will see on top of the columns 'format group : 0' written.
when you go to formatting -> columns you will seee a format group on the top and below you will see the width , decimal places etc.
say you want to have column a very wide and column B needs to be filled with only one or 2 numbers then on top of column A you can the format group to 0. Then click on formatting-> columns and make the widht eg 20.
for column B on top of the column change the format group to 1. Then go to formatting -> columns then select the format group as 1 and then make the width to 2.
This way you can have different widths, decimals etc for differenet columns

Creation of report with the help of report painter

my intension to create controlling report with the help of report painter.
I am ready to award full points.
Thanks in advance

Hello Chinasammy,
Report Painter allows you to create reports using data from SAP application components, which you can adapt to meet your individual requirements.
Many of your reporting requirements can already be met by using the standard reports provided by various SAP application components. If these SAP standard reports do not meet your reporting needs, Report Painter enables you to define your specific reports quickly and easily.
When executing a Report Painter report, it is displayed by the system in Report Writer format. You thus have access to the same functions as for Report Writer reports defined in the same way, and can combine Report Painter and Report Writer reports together in a report group.
Report Painter uses a graphical report structure, which forms the basis for your report definition and displays the rows and columns as they appear in the final report output.
To facilitate report definition, you can use many of the standard reporting objects provided by SAP (such as libraries, row/column models, and standard layouts) in your own specific reports. When you define a Report Painter report you can use groups (sets). You can also enter characteristic values directly.
Advantages of Report Painter include:
Flexible and simple report definition
Report definition without using sets
Direct layout control: The rows and columns are displayed in the report definition as they appear in the final report output, making test runs unnecessary.
=============================================
Below mentioned is the process for creating reports using Report Painter as a tool.
Selecting and maintaining a library for your report: As the transfer structure to Report Painter you use a report table, which is defaulted by SAP and can not be maintained. This table contains characteristics, key figures and predefined columns. In a library, you collect the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns from the report table, which you need for your Report Painter reports.
When you define a Report Painter report, you assign it to a library. Reports assigned to one library can only use the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for that library.
When you create or maintain a library, the Position field determines the sequence in which the characteristics, key figures or (predefined) key figures appear in the Report Painter selection lists when you define a report. This allows you to position the objects that you use regularly in your reports at the beginning of the selection lists. If you do not make an entry in the Position field, you will not be able to use this object in Report Painter reports.
You can use either the standard SAP libraries for your reports or define your own.
(ii) Selecting or maintaining a standard layout for your report: Standard layouts determine report layout features and the format of your report data.If the SAP standard layouts do not meet your reporting requirements, you can create a new standard layout or change an existing one.
(iii) Defining row and column models: A model is a one-dimensional, predefined reporting structure that you can insert in either the rows or columns of your report.If you often use the same or similar row or column definitions in your reports, it is recommended that you create row or column models.
You must define the row and/or column models that you want to include in your report definition before you define the report.
You can also use the standard column models supplied by SAP.
(iv) Defining the report: Defining a Report Painter report involves the following steps.
(a) Define the report columns: You define the report columns using the characteristics, key figures, and predefined columns selected for the library that the report uses. Alternatively, you can use a column model for column definition. Column models are predefined column structures which you insert into your entire column definition, instead of defining each individual column.
(b) Define the report rows: You define the report rows using the characteristics selected for the library selected for the report.
Alternatively, you can use a row model for your row definition. Row models serve the same purpose as column models, but are used to define a report row.
Edit and format the report rows and columns in line with your requirements. (For example, you can hide rows or columns, define the column width or define colors for your report rows).
(iii)Define general data selection criteria for the selection of your report data: Selection criteria are the characteristics used to select data for the entire report. You cannot enter characteristics as data selection criteria if they are already being used in the report rows or columns.
(iv) Assigning the report to a report group: Once you have defined a report, you must assign it to a report group. A report group can contain one or more reports from the same library. However, reports that share the same data will select data more quickly and improve processing time.
Hopw this helps you. Please let me know if you need anything more and assign points.

Creating variables in Report Painter

Hi ...
I would like to know ... how do I create variable ? I know it is via T CODE GS11, but when run tht, in the next screen it pops up for variable ? What variable do I need to enter ? is this predelivered Eg : CE-PK, or can we create one ? Please advise
Also, I would like to I have a requirement for a report whereby the format is like this .....
SALES CURR MONTH (06/2006) LAST YEAR
- Sales IT
- Sales 1
- Sales 2
COGS
- cogs 1
- cogs 2
- cogs 3
COS
- cos 1
- cos 2
- cos 3
GROSS PROFIT
Whereby, SALES = sales it + sales 1 + sales 2, COGS = cogs 1+cogs 2 + cogs 3, COS = cos 1+ cos 2+ cos 3. also GROSS PROFIT = SALES + COGS + COS
The abpve report is inclusive of Cost Centre and Profit Centre, how acn I utilize the libraray in Report Pianter to create such report, is this possible in Report Painter whereby including Cost center and Profit Centre in one single report
Pls assist me
Nathan

When you create your variable first enter the variable name. Second enter the reporting "table" to use. Third enter the "field'. Press enter. Next enter a default value for your field. Save you variable. It is now ready to use in your report painter.
Using the PCA reporting tables gives you the profit center but not the cost center. You can only use one reporting table per report. you will need a cctr report for that.
First create your own libray from GLPCT. Next create your report using your new library. The report painter can do the calculations that you have shown.
You create a formula in the row or column to calculate your sub totals.
pls assign points if helpful as a way to say thanks.

Decimal places in report painter

Hi experts. I have a financial report written in report painter. I want to show two decimal places on a single row. The rest of the report is in whole dollars, but this one row is a percentage, so I want to show decimal places. I know that you can format an entire column, but I can't figure out how to format a single row. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Janet

YES U CAN
SAME AS ABOVE PROCEDURE
BUT SELECT ROW INSTEAD OF COLUMN
