Report Painter Quantity & Dollars

Dear All,
Could please someone help with the following:
Create a report in GRR2 which shows in the same column Dollars ans Quantity e.g
Sales $10,000 (dollars from Cost element/Cost center)
Qty Sold 10 (quantity as Statistical Key figure)
I can't find the "Basic Key Figure" that allows me to have both $ and Q.ty in the same column. Does this depends on the table on the set up of the Library?!?The standard sap report doesn't help.
Thanks!!!!!
Dom

Hi Dom,
Copy an existing report with $, cost elements, cost centers and then:
a) add a new <b>section</b> (edit, section, new section) with characteristics and key figures
b) double click the first empty column or click the first empty column and insert element (edit, elements, insert elements)
c) select element type "key figure with characteristics"
...now you'll get the window with element definition and the basic key figure where you can choose the "quantity".
The report has now one section with "costs" as basic key figure and one with "quantity".

Actual quantity record in Report Painter

Hello SAP CO experts,
I have a question regarding actual quantity record which is not showing in internal order report for newly opened cost element (report created in Report Painter with reference to SAP report 6009-001 Actual/Plan Values/Quantity). Actual quantity from SD document flow is not updated with those cost element category 11- revenue. Actual line items report shows actual quantity, but total record is not updated in summary report.
Is it a problem that cost element at the time it was created did not have indicator for quantity record checked? As this field is time dependent, how can I solve this issue?
Please give me some advice regarding this question.
Dusko

Hello Dusko,
If you have activated the tick at later date then it is obvious that you would not have the quantity posted between the date the tick wasn't there and the day you put the tick as no new documents are generated. However, if you can see the quantity in the line items then the same should be displayed in the table.

Quantity Column in a Report painter

good day Sap masters,
i need to know how can i get to capture actual quantity data in a report prepared by way of report painter. i have been able to bring the qty column to which i have assigned a predfined Actual Qty characteristic inspite of this the report does not display and figures in the qty column plz guide.
regards
sayeed

Hi Sayeed:
It depends on the library you using for the report.
We have one report painter report where we show quanity column (for hours charged to a WBS). That column is "Characteristics with Basic Key Figures". Then the basis key figure is "SMEG Quantity" with relevant characteristics like Value type 4 (for actuals) etc.
Please try this way.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.

hi santosh,
Where Is Report Painter/Report Writer Used?
Initially, both tools were only available to the FI/CO modules. Later, with the introduction of the Logistics Information System and Flexible Analyses in Release 3.x, the functionality of these tools was further expanded. It still is not widely known that the Report Painter/Writer can be used for reporting against structures other than those delivered in FI and CO (see TechTalk on page 8-4).
A common misconception in the user community is that Report Painter/Report Writer can only be used to report against a single table. However, some reporting structures do report against multiple tables. For example, CCSS (for Cost Center Accounting) refers to tables COSP, COSS and more, depending on the key figure configuration. Similarly, FI-SL (Special Purpose Ledger) reporting structures include summary and line-item tables (the key figure set determines where the data comes from).
To configure other table joins, views may be created joining the necessary tables, and views can be added to the control tables, via Flexible Analyses in LIS. Report Painter/Report Writer can be used in almost any application area in R/3 to report on currencies and quantities.
Data tables supported
Both Report Painter and Report Writer can be used to report on the following tables and tables types:
< Evaluation structures set up in the Logistics Information System (LIS). These structures normally begin with an S or ZF. Several different tables and views within the R/3 System can be added as evaluation structures.
Note: You cannot add cluster tables, such as BSEG.
< CCSS is used for Cost Center Accounting (CO-CCA), Internal Orders (CO-OPA), Activity Based Costing (CO-ABC) and for cost element reports in Project Systems (PS).
< GLFUNCT is used for functional area reporting in cost-of-sales accounting.
< GLPCT and GLPCOP are used for Profit Center Accounting (CO-PCA/EC-PCA).
< FILC is used for Legal Consolidations (FI-LC).
< COFIT is used for the Controlling Reconciliation Ledger (CO-CEL).
< ZZ tables are created for the Special Purpose Ledger (FI-SL).
< FIMC is used for consolidations in the Enterprise Controlling module (EC-LC).
< GLT0 is used for Financial Accounting (General Ledger) reports by account, company, and business area (FI-GL).
< KKBC, KKBE, and KKBU are used for the Controlling Product Costing module (CO-Costing).
< New in Release 4.0A: RWCOOM is used for CO-CCA, CO-OPA, and CO-ABC. RWCOOM is used for special standard reports like internal order budget reports, cost center budget reports and cost component reports.
Note: RPPS was used for Project Systems (PS). However, it is obsolete and will no longer be supported in Release 4.0. In Release 3.x there were only two special reports (6P70 and 6P71) using RPPS. These reports cannot be called directly, but via ABAP reports RKOPLAN0 and RKOPLAN1.
How to Access Report Painter/Report Writer?
To access the Report Painter you may use either of the following two methods:
< Transaction FGRP
< From the SAP main menu, choose Information systems ® Ad hoc reports® Report painter.
Report Writer functions can be accessed from within the Report Painter. To access Report Writer, choose the following menu path from the SAP main menu:
Information systems ® Ad hoc reports® Report painter® Report Writer.
How Is Report Painter/Report Writer Organized?
Report Painter/Report Writer has four main components:
< Sets: Sets are logical groupings of characteristic values. For example, a cash line on a balance sheet is made up of a set of cash accounts or an energy product line on an inventory report is made up of a set of energy products. Variables can also be created which are placeholders for sets, or values within sets.
< Libraries: Libraries control which characteristics and key figures from a table are available for reporting.
< Reports: Reports hold a definition of the rows, columns, and overall data selection. They also include the header and footer texts and layout settings.
< Report Groups: Report groups can contain one or more reports. The report group is what you executenot the actual report. A report group is generated to create a set of ABAP programs that produce the reports.
How Does Report Painter Differ from Other Reporting Tools?
< With the exception of row titles which have text fields, Report Painter/Report Writer reports display numerical fields only (for example, dollar and quantity fields). This is not a requirement for ABAP Query and typical line item reporting tools, which can display arbitrary text columns.
< While printed Report Painter/Report Writer reports appear much the same way on paper as they do on screen, the Drilldown reporting tool produces a different output format. Drilldown reporting is an online analytical tool which can be used to drill down to different levels of detail, but it is infrequently used for printing.
< Report Painter/Report Writer reports are hierarchical and take advantage of configured hierarchies (for example, with cost center hierarchies). You can also execute Report Painter/Report Writer reports from each level within a hierarchy.
< Report Painter/Report Writer reports can handle multiple currency/quantity units within a single column.
< Report Painter/Report Writer is well suited to handle reports that require mass production. For example, Report Painter/Report Writer is a particularly effective tool for creating month-end reports.

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.
Regards,
Rakesh

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.
Regards,
Rakesh

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

In report painter GRR3 1VK Actual Value picked up from previous year

Dear Experts,
In report painter GRR3 > 1VK
1. Column of Actual Quantity to take in Basic Key Figure from Statistical Quantity
2. The value is 4 (Actual) and Version is 0
I found that the Actual value appeared are actually taken from the previous fiscal year. I have checked the line items and their document posting date it shown as last fiscal year.
In this case, where should I amend to have the report pick up only actual value of this fiscal year? or Is there any value to maintain for GRR3 to pickup the current fiscal year actual posting?
Thank you very much and Best Regards,
Anne

hi..
Goto GRR3 > click on Lib 1VK it will show you all the report in 1VK library > select your report & double click on it
It will display the report format. Then go to Edit at the top. you will find General data selection.click on it you will find available characteristics. Then goto GRR2 for making any change/selection for Fiscal year char
If your report is a standard one you can not change. then copy the report from GRR1 and make the changes.
You can also see the char in GR23 by selecting 1VK lib.

Report Painter Currency Help

Hello Gurus!!
I'm a report painter user for almost a month, i've been doing a report using multiple currencies, it has worked well, but i need it now to make it to a target currency (lets say, Japanese Yens, YEN), the money is originally in mexican pesos (MXN), the company money unit is dollars (USD).
I want to make a conversion directly from MXN to YEN, but the sistems makes this conversion: MXN->USD->YEN, i've made lots of changes on the system, and still can't find out how to resolve this, i need direct conversions, not the triangulation its making, hope u can help me, thanks!!

Hi,
You can copy and create the new report with column defined with basic key figure as "Total Cost in Object Currency".
You also have the option to translate the report from one currency to another inn final output.
Hope this helps.
Assign points if helpful.

Report painter issue

Hi All,
I need to create a report using report painter.
Requirement goes like this:
1) A report of quantities on a cost center against a cost element.
2)The quantities should be for each month from jan to Dec
I have used SMEG (QUANTITY) as the Basic Key figure.
General Selection:
Version     0
Fiscal year     1GJAHR     Fiscal Year
Value type     4
CO area     0002
Cost center     1KOSET     Cost center group
I am trying to get the quantity (MENGE) booked using F-02 on a cost center.
But my problem is that, against a cost center there are many other quantities booked.
I am not getting the output as my report painter query is not using COEP table and my data is available on COEP table.It queries COSS & COSP
Is there is a way that i can use my report painter queiry this table.

Report painter report can not drilldown

Dear all,
I created a report using report painter(GRR1), the library is IVK.
however, I found that this report can not drilldown to the item details, would anyone tell me am I missing something? thanks.
Ben

The fields we have added is ZZFIELD1 ZZFIELD2 in the PRPS table. And the key figures used in the report is;
AWKG - variance/accrual costs (basic key figure) with characteristic version 0, value type 32, fiscal year and period
SWKG - cost (basic key figure) with characteristic version 0, value type 4, fiscal year and period.
SMEG - quantity (basic key figure) with characteristic version 0, value type 4, fiscal year and period.

Drill down value not matching with Displayed Report Painter Issue-GR55

Hi,
Need your help for an issue in drill down value of report painter from actual cost coloumn.
I have created a new report group based on OSS Note-157720 in GR55 Traction. This new report group will provide data of Planed / Actual cost, Planned / Actual Quantity of the project in range of fiscal year/periods. The issue in this report is displayed data of actual cost is not matching with drill down data. The actual cost coloumn is formula coloumn which framed by subtracting All periods cost coloumn, Before Periods Cost Coloumn and After periods cost coloumn.
Could you suggest on this issue.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Rakesh

The report you are running first might have been created with some hidden columns that contain more than one variables relating to period and fiscal year. These may not be matching those that are required to run the drilldown. Look into the definition of the drilldown report. If you would want to match the first report, It may be better to identify which report runs on drilldown and the run that report with the required parameters.

Dear Experts,
In report painter GRR3 > 1VK
I have summarized the Consumption according to Cost Centre of each activity types, I have set;

Dear Ajay,
Im so happy right now I found that the Actual value appeared are actually taken from the previous fiscal year. I have checked the line items and their document posting date it shown as last fiscal year.
In this case, where should I amend to have the report pick up only actual value of this fiscal year?

Report Painter - ERP Financials - Question on Value Variable useage

I want to use a value variable that works in Report Writer (table GLPCT, field MSL [quantity] but cannot select MSL as a variable field in Report Painter to insert the same variable (it is not a selectable characteristic) using the same Library and Table.
Is there a way to make the field selectable in Report Painter in order to select a value variable that uses the field MSL ? It is a valid field in the Library that I am building the report in.
In building the columns, I can select characteristic fields such as:
Ledger
Record Type
Version
Fiscal Year
Profit Center
Functional Area
Account number
Period
etc
but not MSL Quantity. Is there configuration to make this (or any field) accessible to Report Painter ?
Any advice is welcome.....
Thanks......

Quantity is a key figure. When you create the column values you would get this from the key figure drop list.

Report Painter - FAGLFLEXT Display of quantities

Hi all,
I want to create a report via Report Painter with table FAGLFLEXT. As far as I can see the table currently adjust quantities (field name MSLxx?). But actually I cannot find a way to report those quantities. Is this "report function for quantities" supported generally by the report painter?
I still tried to copy the libary 0FL and activated the key figure BMSL - I (Document Quantity Actual).
Thank you for your answers!
Best Regards
Andreas

Andreas,
Please try with FAGLFLEXA: - General Ledger: Actual Line Items table,field - MSL rather than totals FAGLFLEXT: - General Ledger: Totals.
Thanks...
