Table used in report painter

Hi,
How to check what table is really used in a certain report painter.
For my case, I want to a report 1KSL-001 under 1VK library, and I can see this 1VK library is using table "CCSS", but CCSS acctually is not a table, its just a structure.
So, how to use what tables are used while running report 1KSL-001?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Bernard Gunawan

Yes, but how do you know and where to check that this report is a collection of fields of those tables?
Could you please tell me what transaction code to check, and guide to what table behind a report painter?

Hi,
use KE5B to make the FSV nodes available in Report painter reports. This function can be used to create/change sets based on FSV.

Project Report in Report Painter

Hi,
Need your help for one of my issue.
Current issue in the System / reqirment:
There is a project report in report painter-GR55 which used to provide planed / actual cost and planed / actual quantity of the project. Whenever we are trying to run the report for several years and periods there is no cumulative data displaying. E.g. if we want to execute the report for the range of 001 period/2009 fiscal year to 004 period/2010 fiscal year, system is displaying data of 2009 and 2010 for the period of 01 to 04 only and there is missing data for period from 05 till 12 in 2009
Root cause:
There is no field in table-CCSS for the fiscal year/ period (FISCPER field name). As per the OSS note-157720 this is standard behavior of report painter. SAP suggested to build new report group based on OSS note-157720.
Approach:
An an alternative we used table-RWCOOM as there is field fiscal year/period (FISCPER). The new report group is working fine except planed cost of the project as the planed cost of the service orders are added up to project planed cost. We found there is missing field name-Object indicator which will restrict planed cost of the service order flow into project for which planed cost of the service orders are added up to project cost plan. This field-object indicator is available in table-CCSS.
Looking for now to fix the issue:
Option-1
We are looking for any field similar to object indicator in table-RWCOOM which will restrict planed cost of service flow into Project
Option-2
Build new report based on OSS Note-157720.
Please advise for this issue.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Eli,
Thanks a lot for your suggestion. A small query i got here while building the auxilarry coloumns-2 and 3.
As per the Note (157720), in the auxilary coloumn-2 for the period we have to define period as 0 .....from period-1. Whereas my from period will be 1 and i can't provide from period-1 here
In same way for Auxilarry coloumn-3 period details as per the Note will be To period +1 ...17 whereas my to period will be 12 so i may not enter the details.
System will forbid if to period value is less than from period value.
Could you guide me on this.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Rakesh

I had made couple of SD reports in report painter 4 year ago .. as far as process is concern you have create library , but it deals with information structure which start with s0* , after defining information structure in library it take to select the fields and display them on your out put . information structure have the statistical data most of the time . As i worked on information structure , so31,32,33 .....
I t creates ABAP program like ABAP query creates in background . if you execute Customer Over due analysis or in Co02 cost analysis report or MC* ( MM stock reports ) those are in report painter .
Hope this'll give you some guide line ...
As far as I know about report painter, It create a report in background..Like when you make ABAP query (SQ01, 02, 03 ) .. It will create a report. You cant modify the report . You have to get OSS id in order to do that. if you're ready do it then you can pass it to Memory and can achieve your goal ...
I think it will give you some hint. I wish I could have authorization to use report painter on my this project so I can help you out practically.
Please see these steps , it`ll help you ...
http://www.thespot4sap.com/Articles/Code_CostCentreReport.asp
The variation objects are coming from the sets.
For example, when you read the report 'Cost Centers: Actual/Plan/Variance'(T-code : S_ALR_87013611), you can find the characteristic 'Cost Center' is set as a 'set variable'. So the cost center in the report left side are coming from the cost center group that you input.
Does any know if we could use Report Painter across two controlling areas? Any documentation available will be great. Yes. When setting up a report in CCA you can have multiple controlling areas. In the General data selection you will have the option for the CA as a selection.
You can also use standard references objects to construct your own reports: libraries, standard layouts, default columns, and row and column models, all in the standard R/3 System, are available for custom reports.
Report Painter report definition requires several Preparatory Steps, depending on the complexity of the report to be generated.
1) Create a library and pick your reporting tables.
2) Create your report
3) define your set up within the report
a)General data selections
b)Colimns
c) rows
d) formulas
Standard layouts are maintained in the IMG "Financial Accounting" under "Special Ledger -> Information System -> Maintain standard layout.
Create libraries, which means assigning the
characteristics
key figures
Predefined columns
For each of these categories you need to select the objects to be used in reports of the specific library. You define the sequence of the objects in the selection lists of the Report Painter in field "Position". Frequently used objects should be at the top of the list.

I have created a report through report writer/Painter(GR51). My query here is to link this report to a transaction code. Could you please suggest me how can I acheive this?
Go to SE93 and select the Transaction with Parameters ( Parameter Transaction)
Then in the Transaction field give: START_REPORT
Skip initial screen
Screen 0
In the default value for the parameters give
D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE RW
D_SREPOVARI-REPORT ( Give your Report Group )
If you have any doubt pick any report painter tcode and check in SE93
Follow below steps
1) Execute report through report painter
2) From system status get the program name
3 ) go to se93 and select report transaction and assign
program name .
Is it possible to make bigger the text a I have on a text field?, Im using the screen painter and I need to put the title bigger (as a requirment).
You can define your text as any length.If you are talking about the font,i am afraid you cannot do that.
No, you can not change the size(font) of the text on the dynpro, you can hightlight it, which changes the color to "blue" to make it stand out. You can change this on the attributes tab when double-clicking on the element in screen painter.
what is the sentence that open a screen painter file
Don´t really understand what you mean with "open a screen painter file".
If you are speaking about showing a form generated with the screen painter,
Dim oXMLDoc As New MSXML2.DOMDocument
oXMLDoc.load("Form.xml")
SBO_Application.LoadBatchActions(oXMLDoc.xml)
Dim oForm As SAPbouiCOM.Form
oForm = SBO_Application.Forms.Item("YourFormID")
oForm.Visible = True

Report Painter form issue

Hi
I have changed the form layout in KE85 for one of our report painter report. I have transported the changes to quality. The form changes are appearing as per Development but the screenlayout is not changed.
Is there anything else I should do like import, or generate the report etc. If so kindly let me know the details.
Thanks
N Sankar

Hi Franc
Thank you very much for your valuable input. But my report does not have report group. It is a report created by using a form in KE84. This form is attached to a t_code and the same transported to quality. In quality the form changes are appearing in the form. Whereas when I execute the form changes are not called.
This is what confusing me a lot. Can you please guide me on this.
Thanks

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.

Raghavendra

Additional Lead Column in Report painter

Hi Gurus
Please guide me how to add an additional Lead column in Report painter
Thanks
Hiren

Hi HIren,
There can be only one lead column in report painter.
However within the one lead column you can identify more than one characteristic - e.g. cost center and cost element. You can then identify that both characteristics should be exploded.
If you go Edit > Rows > Explode, you have the opportunity of identifying which characteristic takes presidence over the other, and how they expand. So in this example, Cost center will be 1 and cost element will be 2.
The output will be dependant upon your report layout, but you should have the layout so that you have:
Cost Center A:
- Cost Element A
- Cost Element B:
- Cost Element C:
Cost Center B:
- Cost Element A:
- Cost Element B:
- Cost Element C:
And to distinguish the cost centers from the cost elements, you can format the cost center row "Color for Totals"
Regards,
Gaurav
