Report Painter/Report Writer Error

Hi Gurus,
When I try to create a library in report writer with a custom Special Ledger line item table ZZFCCA, I get the error
"Table ZZFCCA is not installed in Report Writer.
Message no. GR493
Diagnosis:
The Report Writer can only report on tables if the attributes of these tables that are relevant for reporting are defined in control tables. This is not the case for table ZZFCCA."
I would appreciate any kind of help to resolve this.
Thanks,
Ram

Hello,
The answer is in your question itself. You are using customized table, which is not suitable, the properties of this table needs to be changed. Take the help from ABAPer.
SAP Notes 53245 and 37611 may be helpful to you.

Report Painter GR214 generation error - Short dump 4.6C

While generating a report with more than twenty sections, the system short dumps with the error message GR214 pointing to "MESSAGE_TYPE_X"
"%_T01JR0 " or "########################################"
"INSERT_ROW_FORMULA_NEW"
Any leads to fix this?
The generation error happens only when I include a last line formula in the last section, Till then it is working fine.

Hi,
The error you are receiving could be caused by a large number of row blocks in your report definition, (you can check the report definition with report RGRRDC00). A report should not contain too many row and column blocks. It is not possible to give an upper bound for the number of row blocks (since the length of the coding depends on other parts of the report as well). However, even a complicated Report Writer or Report Painter report should not contain more than 50 row blocks, and reports with more than 100 row blocks should not be defined.
In this case the report(s) have to be redefined. Please also refer to the note 387916 for further information regarding this issue.
When there are more than 30 variables in a report, please have a look at the note 332091.
Please reduce the number of row blocks in the report by using the function 'Edit' -> 'Rows' -> 'Explode' in the Report Painter
definition. This function enables several rows to be created for one row block (in the Report Painter definition one row block is just one row). Report Painter (and Report Writer) are designed to display hierarchical reports where the rows in the few row blocks are built up using the 'Explode' function.

Hi,
Report Writer enables you to report on data from multiple applications. Using functions such as sets, variables, formulas, cells and key figures, you can create complex reports that meet specific reporting requirements.
The Report Painter is similar to the Report Writer, but is simpler to use.The main components of report painter are characterestics and basic key figure.
The majority of reports end users use in the R/3 System is Report Painter reports. Most of these reports (@ 80+ %) began as Report Writer reports.
The major difference is Report Painter uses a graphical interface (analogous to Notepad and MS Word).
Very few R/3 users employ Report Writer however, many still use, modify and develop reports using Report Painter. Report Painter permits complex groupings and drill-down reporting very useful for such applications as FI-CO and SD. It can also be used interactively allowing users to enter variables for specific steps; thereby permitting drill-across' functionality.
However, Report Painter does have its limitations; it can display only numeric data (excluding column headers) therefore, short text, etc. is not available. It is much easier (quicker) to modify than ABAP and requires no ABAP expertise however, many combine Report Painter with ABAP reports to fill-in many of the missing pieces. Layout design is archaic and rudimentary ~ therefore; many use Report Painter to retrieve and massage the data' and eventually export it into Excel for end use.

Issue with Report painter report

Hi Gurus
I need your help with an issue with one of our report painter reports. I have created a new report with Fiscal Year, Ledger, Company code, and Account number range in General data selection. The report row has field Segment and each period corresponds to one period of the fscal year. In here, I have selected Period and Record type 0 as characteristics. The basic key figure is KSL for second currency.
I am able to save the report but when I execute it, I get the error that
*Characteristic GJAHR cannot be combined with key figures*
Can someone please help me as why I am getting this error?
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Shalu

Hi
I think you have to rechek the genral data selection setting , related to fiscal year.
had u defaulted the fiscal year or used variant for fiscal year
Thanks

T.Code for Report painter report

Hi,
Is there a way to assign a T.Code to the Report painter report, so that users do not have to go to GR53.
thanks & Regards
Rose

thanks Eli, I tried this in Sandbox and it looks good.
You seem to know a lot about Report Painter, I hope you would be able to certainly help me understand this :
My predecessor here, created a report painter report and then asked the ABAP team to copy the report painter program (its like a query name) to a Z Prpgram and assign a transaction code. As I hear this was done to avoid the authorization issues.. (???) when this was moved to Testing Dev client, all this worked But when we moved this to QA, the error "program doesnot exist" made us to change the zprogram to remove the logic that the program had to check for the Client, in which the report was created. We removed that but then it then includes started giving the same error. so this will surely not work.
So, my question is : when this simple way of giving a report painter report a t.code with the defaults, would there be any auth issues that you can think of ???
thanks in advance.

Rose

Transaction Codes for Report Painter Reports

Hi,
Can any bodu assist on how can we create a link for the report painter report and the transaction code for the same.
Also is there somthing to be taken care while getting the same transported to another client.
Thanks & Regards,
Ankur Goel

Hi,
Thanks for response.
Actually I created the Transaction code and get the Report and Transaction code transported but when i executed the transaction code in the Receiver Client i gave run time ABAP error.
let me give example:
a) I created the Library, Report Group & Report in my Developement Client.
b) Using SE93 i assigned the program name of the Report to transaction code.
c) Got the Library, Report Group, Report & T.code transported to Quality Client.
d) Executed the transaction code in QAS which gave me error.
Reason identified:
a) Let say Program name created for the report is AAXGHGYGBL010 in my client 010.
b) Transaction code ZREPORT01 created using SE93 for program AAXGHGYGBL010.
c) Now got the Library, Report Group, Report & T.code transported to Quality Client 050.
d) In client 050 program AAXGHGYGBL010 doesnot exist as AAXGHGYGBL050 has been created for the transported Report.
Thanks & Regards,

How to translate Report Painter Reports (GRRT or other solution)?

Hello All,
We need to translate Report Painter Reports, and it doesn't seem that it can be done using SE63.
The transaction, <b>GRRT, Report Painter->Translate Reports</b>, may be the one to use, but we cannot find any documentation on this transaction. (not even on sap.help.com). The only translation references we could find for Report Painter were regarding translating currency. We need to translate the text content into different languages.
Can you provide any information or links to material about GRRT? Or do you know of an alternate solution to translate Report Painter report content?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Lisa

Hi All,
I recommend that you use transaction SE63. This enables you to translate what you need:
1) Selection texts for reports: SE63 -> Translation -> Short Texts -> ABAP -> Program texts -> Enter program name, source and target language and choose Edit.
2) Report Writer texts (what you have been using the G* transactions for): SE63 -> Translation -> Long Texts -> SAPscript -> Report Writer -> Enter name of library, source and target language and choose Edit. You can find documentation on transaction SE63 by choosing Help -> Application Help while you are working in this transaction. The section on Transport Recording also contains information on how to transport translations.

Trying to add new columns to Report painter Report

Hi Experts,
I created a report painter report by copying an already existing report. In addition I wanted to add extra columns to this report but after adding a few and coming to the last page of the existing report when i try to add a new column the system gives me an error message
Insufficient space on current page -> moving not possible
    Message no. KH581
As this is the last page, I am not able to add extra columns to this report. How can I go to the next page and add columns to this existing report. Your responses are highly appreciated.
Regards
ASLV

Hello,
This is a constraint in the system.
The solution maybe is to define narrower columns
because there is a hard restriction in ABAP to have at least 255 digits
on one page.
The message KH581 is processed because there is not enough space left
on the first horizontal page. So if you first add a new horizontal page
you can add the new column on the second page. Also if you decrease the
column width of the columns to get more space left on the first page you
can add the new columns.
I hope it helps.

REnan

Function Modules to Execute Report Painter Report

Hi Experts,
May I know if there is any way to execute the GR55 Report Painter reports, and get the report result back as a table?
I need this to write a program to export the result to a external system.
Many thanks!!!
Regards,
Chris

I am actually expecting a ABAP way to do so, but not to do that in foreground manually.
I found the solution anyway by using the below sample code:
*&      Form frm_retrieve_data
      text:Get report painter Result
FORM frm_retrieve_data .
DATA:lt_params TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF alv_s_param_wp,
       lwa_params TYPE alv_s_param_wp,
       lwa_msg    LIKE LINE OF gt_msg,
       lv_dcpfm   TYPE xudcpfm.
CLEAR:gt_data,gt_msg.
Set report painter Paramters
lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZRYEAR0'.
lwa_params-pvalue = sy-datum+0(4).
APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .
lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZBUKRS0'.
lwa_params-pvalue = 'JNPC'.
APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .
lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZBUKRS1'.
lwa_params-pvalue = 'JNPC'.
APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .
lwa_params-pname = '$PARAMETER[$ZF-RP00'.
lwa_params-pvalue = sy-datum+4(2).
APPEND lwa_params TO lt_params .
CALL FUNCTION 'CRIF_RW_WEB_CALL_REPORT'
    EXPORTING
      i_report_group = 'JNZ1'

Marthinsh,
I am aware that you can export/import or transport the reports in themselves - but not their names. In a way I never clearly understood, they are not attached to their names as such.
But then ... we do agree, you can only authorise by group.
