Report Painter - Account descriptions not showing

Hi guys...I have created a balance sheet in report painter, using a library based on table FAGLFLEXT. this table does not have account descriptions in it, but only account number. The client wants to see the account description as well. Is there a way I include that in my report? Since we are using the new GL, i have used FAGLFLEXT. Please advise how I can accomplish this...can I use a view or a table join between FAGLFLEXT and SKA1?
please help
thanks
Brian

Dear Brain,
In the report painter, GRR2, select your report and go to
Formatting > Section layout
Select the lead column tab
Here in the Contents field, select "Key and description"
That would resolve the issue.

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 issue regarding break up of gl accounts for rows

Hi
I am facing a problem while designing report for balance sheet in report painter. while selecting report format option in formatting option in menu bar system is displaying even zero value rows also. but the problem is for rows which have n number of accounts , it is not showing break up. it is displaying in a single row as a range and its total .
If i go for " print row option" in formatiing in menu bar, then system is not displaying rows with zero balance in accounts . but i am able to get break up over there.
I need both 0 balance rows to be displayed in output as well i need breakup for remaining rows also.
plz suggets me .
Regards
Vijay

Hi vijay kumar,
You need to explode the charactor of Account Number for the item you want to "show break up".
In tc: GR32, double click the item you want to "show break up", system popups the screen for changing charactors values, scroll the horizontal scroll bar to right, you will see the column Explode, change the default value "No explode" to "Explode" for the charactor Account Number and save the report. Then you will see the accounts when you run the report again.

Internal variables of report painter shouldn't be selectable

Dear collegues,
I have created two new internal variables in report writer in order to use them in planning layout of TA KP67:
- previous year: marked as internal variable: calculated as: &1CGJAHE-1 (2008)
and
- future year: marked as internal variable: calcualted as: &1CGJAHE+1 (2010).
In report painter these variables are assigned to key figures and are not shown on the selection screen again as they are calculated internally.
But in planning layout of TA KP67 cost activity planning these variables are also assigned to key figures like actual costs or fixed planned costs and are indicated as acceptable for input on the selection screen but shouldn't - so how it is possible to define internal variables in co planning layouts as really internal which do not come up if the planning layout is executed via TA KP06?
Thanks and regards,
Christian

Hello Christian,
when I understand your request correctly, you want to plan for several years like 2008, 2009 and 2010 but you just want to enter one year. Right?
For the column with the current fiscal year you can use a standard variable like GJAHR. For the other columns you define the year in the column as variable with value "GJAHR-1" (last year) and with value "GJAHR+1" (following year). On the selection screen of the planning transaction you will only have one field for the current year and the fiscal year for the other columns is calculated accordingly when you run the planning.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Daniela

how can i add more select options to the exisiting one
please let me know the Procedure and provide some relevent documents .
Thanks and Best regards.

Hello...
In the program ...we can find the following chunk of code..
selection-screen:begin of block B1 with frame title text-001.
Parameters : ....
select-options:.....
selection-screen:end of block b1.
if we need to add any more user inputs we can write the code inside the existing
selection screen....end of block .
or create a new block ..just the block name should be different...
if we are using select options...we need to declare the table name using the key word for the field on which we are giving select options ....
Tables : BSIK.
Please see the following code:
Imagine :- we have the current selection screen..
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B1 WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-001.
PARAMETERS: P_BUKRS LIKE BSIK-BUKRS DEFAULT SPACE.
SELECT-OPTIONS: S_LIFNR FOR BSIK-LIFNR.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B1.
we need to add 2 more fields on the selection screen ..this we can do as the following
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B1 WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-001.
PARAMETERS: P_BUKRS LIKE BSIK-BUKRS DEFAULT SPACE.
SELECT-OPTIONS: S_LIFNR FOR BSIK-LIFNR,
                S_HKONT FOR BSIK-HKONT.
PARAMETER: P_DATE LIKE BSIK-BUDAT OBLIGATORY DEFAULT
           SY-DATUM.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B1.
OR...create a new block...
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B2 WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-002.
SELECT-OPTIONS:   S_HKONT FOR BSIK-HKONT.
PARAMETER: P_DATE LIKE RFPDO-ALLGSTID OBLIGATORY DEFAULT
           SY-DATUM.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK B2.
there are many options available in selection screens..like creating check box,radio button etc..

Report Painter selection variables sorting

I have added a number of characteristics to my report painter report and set some as variables
i.e. plan version 1, plan version 2, plan version 3, plan version 1 year, plan version 2 year, plan version 3 year.
These variables appear on the selection screen in the following order;
plan version 1,
plan version 2,
plan version 3,
plan version 1 year,
plan version 2 year,
plan version 3 year.
What the business require is the variables to appear on the selection screen as follows;
plan version 1,
plan version 1 year,
plan version 2,
plan version 2 year,
plan version 3,
plan version 3 year
Has anyone any idea how the selection screen sorts the variables?
Can the selection screen sort order be changed for a report?
Your assistance is appreciated
John

For Selection Screen, you can try to use Selection Variant.
The steps are like this:
a. Go to GRR2 (change report painter)
b. Then choose the report you are developing
c. Execute the report
d. On the selection screen, choose Go To-> Variant -> Save As Variant
e. At Variant Attributes screen, you can do the following as your requirement:
    ·        Description
Enter a short, meaningful description of the variant. This can be up to 30 characters long.
·        Only for background processing
Select this field if you want the variant to be available for background processing but not in dialog mode.
·        Protect variant
Select this field if you want to prevent your variant being changed by other users.
·        Only display in catalog
Select this field if you only want the variant name to be displayed in the variant catalog (and not when the user calls the F4 value help).
·        System variant
This field cannot accept input. It is set automatically when a system variant (beginning with CUS& or SAP&) is created.
You can also assign the following further attributes to the selections in a variant:
·        Type
The system indicates here whether a field is a parameter (P) or a selection option (S).
·        Protected
Select this column for each selection that you want to write-protect on the selection screen. These fields are visible on the selection screen when the user starts a program with the variant, but do not accept user input.
·        Invisible
If you select this column, the system hides the corresponding field on the selection screen. This allows you to change the appearance of the selection screen.
·        Selection variable
If you select this column, you can set the value of the corresponding selection dynamically at runtime. The different ways of doing this are explained in the section Variable Values in Variants.
·        Without values
If you select this field, the contents of the corresponding field are not saved with the variant.
This is useful if you do not want to overwrite the contents of this field on the selection screen.
For example, suppose you create a report 'SAPTEST', with the parameter 'TEST', for which you create the variant 'TESTVARIANT'. In the variant, you set the 'Without values' flag for the parameter. Then, you run time program and enter the value 'ABCD' in the TEST field. If you now retrieve the 'TESTVARIANT' variant, the TEST field retains the value ABC instead of being overwritten by SPACE.
·        SPA/GPA
This attribute only appears if you created the corresponding selection criterion using 'MEMORY ID xxxu2019. You can switch the SPA/GPA handling on and off in the variant. This means that fields filled using SPA/GPA appear with their initial values after you have loaded a variant in which those fields have an initial value.
f. When you are finished, you can save it and name the variant (e.g.: Z_S_Screen for simpler selection screen)
After that, every time you want to have the selection screen, you can choose Get Variant or Go To-> Variant-> and select the variant you have saved.

Select Options, Report Painter

How can I create "Select Options" for a variable in the "General Data Selection" of the report painter screen.
Thank You.

If you specify selection parameters for several years and periods in a
    Report Writer or Report Painter report, the characteristics year and
    period are taken into account independent of each other.
    A report with the selections:
           From-year   :    1997
           To-year     :    1999
           From-period :     003
           To-period   :     008
    will hence select all the following data:
            003/1997 .. 008/1997, 003/1998 .. 008/1998, 003/1999 .. 008/1999
     This is the standard behavior of Report Writer and Report Painter
     reports.
     However, reports which directly display the data for the period
            003/1997 ............................................. 008/1999
     are required in some cases.
     You can achieve this in the report definition using the following
     procedure.
     Additional key words
     several years several periods GS274
     rolling periods, rolling
           SUPPORTGUIDE 20010330131459
     REPORTWRITER, SGRW_DOCU_CONS_NOTE,
     SGRW_OM SGRW_PS SGRW_PC SGRW_SL SGRW_PCA SGRW_EC SGRW_LIS
     Cause and prerequisites
     This is a standard behavior of the Report Writer.
     Solution
     A procedure is described below to implement the selection over a period
     of several years and periods. This is merely an example which should
     serve as a support for experienced users of the Report Painter and
     Report Writer when defining their own reports.
     1. Definition of auxiliary column 1: 'All-periods'
         Period:   0 ... 17
         Year:      From-year .. To-year
         000/1997.....................................................017/1999
         Definition of auxiliary column 2: 'Periods before'
         Period:   0 ... From-period - 1
         Year:      From-year
         000/1997..002/1997
         Definition of auxiliary column 3: 'Periods after'
         Period:    To-period + 1 .. 17
         Year:      To-year
         009/1999..017/1999
         Definition of the formula column:
         Formula = 'All-periods' - 'Periods before' - 'Periods after'
         000/1997.....................................................017/199
         9
         000/1997..002/1997
         009/1999..017/1999
                            003/1997............... 008/1999
         Hide the three auxiliary columns. The formula column now correctly
         shows the required period
                            003/1997............... 008/1999
Note:The new reporting table RWCOOM is also available as of Release 4.0
for reports which were, up to now, defined in table CCSS. RWCOOM
contains the characteristic FISCPER which represents a combination of
year and period. You can directly define reports over several years and
periods using characteristic FISCPER without having to follow the
procedure described above.
Please take into account that you cannot call reports via report
Interfaces in the formula columns (see Note 98187).

I have a question about General Data Selection in Report Painter

Please help me out. Thi is the question....here it goes.
In a Report in ReportPainter, I have in the General Data Selection the following selected characteristics. They are:
Ledger = 0
Record Type = 0
Version = 1
Fiscal Year = Z-ANOACT
Period = (1CPERIV, 1CPERIB)
So that we have the next screen in the Reports execution.
Fiscal Year : 2006
From Period : 1
To Period : 12
Note:
*Z-ANOACT = Variable so that with a user-exit calculates the actual year. Right now is 2006.
*1CPERIV = This From-Period Variable is referenced to CCSS Table and PERBL Field Name. Its default value is 1.
*1CPERIB = This To-Period Variable is referenced to CCSS Table and PERBL Field Name.
Its default value is 12. Rigth now, we are in the fiscal month 5 (November).
Id like to filtrate information from January,2006,Period:07 to November,2007,Period:05.
I mean I work with the fiscal calendar because the information to get from the table is saved due to this calendar.
The Fiscal Calendar is from July to June:
Month          Period     Year
January          07     2006
February     08     2006
March          09     2006
April          10     2006
May          11     2006
June          12     2006
July          01     2007
Augost          02     2007
September     03     2007
October          04     2007
November     05     2007
December      06     2007
Right now, we are in November , 2006 (month=11) but according to the fiscal calendar we are in November, 2007 (month=5).
How I can accommodate my variables or what I am doing wrong so that I can select information from periods 7 to 12, 2006 ( January to June, 2006) and information from periods 1 to 5, 2007 (July to November, 2007) having the screen cited above so that report painter adds the 2 ranges.
I cannot do it with the criteria selection cited above because I only have a year and a range of periods and my end-user doesnt want to run my report twice:
One run with periods 7 to 12, 2006 and
Another run with periods 1 to 5, 2007 and then to add the 2 reports in excel to form a report.
Hed like something in my screen like this
Fiscal Year = 2006
From period = 7
To Period = 12
Fiscal Year = 2007
From period = 1
To Period = 5
And then report painter will add the 2 ranges.
