Report Painter versus ABAP Report

Hi everyone:
Can someone tell me what are pros and cons of developing OR Running reports in Report Painter?
Secondly can someone tell me when should one develop reports in ABAP and when should one develop reports in Report Painter?
Thanks in advance
R

Almost the entire SAP R3 System is written in ABAP u2013 including the Report Painter.
The Report Painter is a tool for the end user to create evaluation reports without having to involve the IT Department. He therefore has the information he requires within the limitations of the Report Painter very quickly.  No programming involved.
An ABAP Report has to be written by a programmer/developer. It takes much longer, has to be tested, and, when everything is okay, be transported into the production system. This is time consuming and expensive. The report may have to modified at a later date u2013 again by a programmer/developer, which in turn also costs more time and money.  A report created using the Report Painter can be modified or created immediately by the end user, i.e. low costs, immediate results.
I hope this clarifies the matter.

    hi,
    ABAP Query is an ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
    In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.

    whereas the Report Painter enables you to report on data from various applications. It uses a graphical report structure that forms the basis for the report definition. When defining the report, you work with a structure that corresponds to the final structure of the report when the report data is output.

    Hi rajneesh,
    Report Painter : -
    You use the Report Painter to create reports from data in the Special Purpose Ledger (FI-SL) application component and other R/3 application components to meet your specific reporting requirements.Advantages of the Report Painter include:--Easy and flexible report definitionReport definition without using setsDirect layout controlABAP QueryThe SAP Query application is used to create reports not already contained in the default. It has been designed for users with little or no knowledge of the SAP programming language ABAP.SAP Query offers users a broad range of ways to define reports and create different types of reports such as basic lists, statistics, and ranked lists. ABAP Report--
    A ABAP Report is the one which is used to display the output in the form of list with out any GUI screen.It is less userinteraction. or Reading and displaying data, for example in a list. Obsolete name for an execution program that can only implement reporting
    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.
    Report Painter fulfills a function similar to Report Writer, but is easier to use. Most of the functions found in Report Writer have been built into Report Painter; however, you do not need to be familiar with all Report Writer concepts (such as Sets) in order to use Report Painter.
    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.

  • Report group / Painter Vs ABAP

    Hi,
    There are some tools in FI like Report painter/writer, by using them functional people can develop reports/ reprot group ( for ex: using txn GR51).
    If there alreday existing Z report group. Can we modify it?
    If so will it b done by Functional guys it self? or Abapers needed?
    if abapers needed, in which scenario it requires abaper's help?
    if abaper want to modify it, how can he do it?
    Thanks
    Pra

    Hi
    Everything in Report Painter/Writer can be handled by Functional consultant
    As such there is no need of ABAP Developer  for it.
    You can't change the Existing Group
    Where as you can create your own group and use.
    see the doc
    Report Writer functions can be accessed from within the Report Painter.
    The difference lies in the GUI of the report painter.

    Hi
    Report painter:
      A tool for creating reports that meet specific business and reporting requirements.
    The Report Painter enables you to report on data from various applications. It uses a graphical report structure that forms the basis for the report definition. When defining the report, you work with a structure that corresponds to the final structure of the report when the report data is output.
    The SAP System is delivered with several row and column models that can be used as building blocks to help you create reports quickly and simply.
    Report Writer:
    A tool for creating reports that meet specific business and reporting requirements.
    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.
    When working with Report Writer, you can use certain functions that are not supported by Report Painter. These functions include:
    Multidimensional column structures
    User-defined definition of inactive row and column combinations
    Enhanced functions for using cells in column formulas
    ABAP Query:
    An ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
    In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.

  • Report Painter or ABAP Query

    Hi,
    I have to create one report with the use of three different Tables. is it possible to create in Report Painter or Report Writer or ABAP Query? or i need to customize that report with ABAPers?
    Can anybody please tell me for Report Painter and Report writer, can i use Two Tables?
    and in ABAP query how i can create the report?
    I'll really appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Niki Shah

    Hello Niki
    You create a query based on an info-set. Info sets are special views of a dataset so can be :
    - Table joins ( more than one table)
    - Single tables
    - Logical data bases (view of the database)
    You create a report painter from a library which is based only on  a single totals table.

  • ALV Reports versus ABAP drilldown or high volume data

    Which is better with regards to performance? An ALV grid or an ABAP drilldown ?
    I am very concerned about performance given the high volume of data and therefore not sure if I should use ALV?
    input is appreciated
    J

    hi JJ,
    ALV reporting is always having lot of advantages over abap reproting in many ways,
    performace increases due to the use of

  • Custom databases (oracle tables versus abap 'z' tables)

    We are relatively new to SAP PI.  Many of our developers come from a EAI background rather than an abap background.  How to do you recommend creating customized tables - directly create an oracle database and schema and administer outside of the sap landscape - retrieving data from java or by creating the oracle tables from within the abap stack?
    Are there any performance considerations in one approach over another?
    Given the fact that SAP long-term plans on moving away from the abap stack - is that a consideration?

    Hi,
    Imho, you need to get (meaning, extract into separate fields) the different supplier types from Table1 first. Your key for Table1 is the vendor no, which is also the key in Table2 (or the key for Table2 is Vendor no & Type).
    For better performance, better select multiple/all required entries from Table1 instead of doing a select endselect.
    Depending on the format of the vendortypes in Table1, put them in a new itab (for our purpose named Table1New where vendor no & type are the only 2 fields. For example, if the type length is fixed to 2 chars, or divided by space,... use your coding accordingly.
    Next step is to select all vendor no's in Table2 which you have selected in Table1. If in Table2, the vendor no is the only key (and the all vendor types are filled in a single record), then loop check the vendor types from Table1New against the types in Table2.
    If the key of Table2 is vendor no & vendor type, then do a read table for the key.
    The logic in pseudo-code:
    Select from Table1 into table. If you'd like to limit the selection size, add package size statement.
         extract the vendor types in to itab Table1New.
         Select the vendor & types from Table2 by using the for all entries option (better performance).
         loop at Table1New
              check in Table2:
                   if the unique key is vendor no: check all fields for the vendor type from Table1New
                   if the unique key combo is vendor no & type: check by using a read table.
              If not found => add entry to Table2
         endloop.
    endselect Table1 (when using package size)
    I guess the most difficult step is to extract the types from Table1 into separate fields, all the rest seems straight forward. Please keep in mind the itab type definitions for a better performance.
    Good luck!
    Best regards,
    Zhou

  • How do we track back the ABAP queries/report painter used to custom report?

    Hi Experts,
    I only have some ideas about report painter and ABAP query. If a company has a number of different Z reports in production.
    1. How do we identify if it's report painter/writer or ABAP query??
    2. For ABAP query report, suppose that i can identify one. If i am given a Z tcode of that report and identify the program of that report behind it, How do i know what query that program belongs to?? What are the steps i go back in SQ03 to view that query??
    3. For report painter, starting from ztcode of the report, where do i check and track the original painter of that report??
    Please help clarify my doubts..
    Monica

    Hi Monica,
    For report painter/writer, you can identified it by go to
    Environment --> Technical information when you execute your Z-tcode.
    To refer back to the report painter/writer t-code you just need to double click oh the report group that you see by clicking the link above.
    Thanks,
    Victor.

    hi,
    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.

  • BSP / Web-Dynpro (Java / Abap)  what to use in this case ?

    Hi all,
    i have some questions about all this BSP/Web-Dynpro stuff. We have an application (for health care written in Visual Studio) out there at our customers. Some of these customers are using SAP as their backend system. So we've writte some backend functionality (a cash processing, additional reports, a special invoice system etc.etc.) in Abap and Abap-Objects. Actually we are planing a new release for this backend stuff which is using the normal SAP Gui.
    Maybe we plan for the next release to convert our app to a Web based app and we discuss what SAP technology we should use for that.
    Here are my questions :
    - When and why should we use Web-Dynpro (Java) ?
    - Can't we use BSP ?
    - Is there any future for BSP ?
    - When will Web-Dynpro for ABAP be released (actually we are not a Java Shop so Abap is prefered)?
    Hope someone can answer my question.
    Greetings
    Henning

    If you don't mind, I am going to terminate discussion of Web Dynpro ABAP here. It is not that I want to, but we are in a difficult position with this development, and can not really discuss it too much.
    But, let me first make a few (last) comments:
    (*) BSP is available since WebAS 610 (which is now nearly at the end of its lifetime). WebAS 620 is the main platform out there, with NW04 (WebAS 640) now shipping, and the next product is inevitably coming. If you keep in mind that SAP supports each release at least 7 years, and we will be shipping BSP in an upcoming release, you can see that with BSP you are not going to left stranded for many years to come.
    (*) Web Dynpro Java is out and shipping. A very nice development environment. You can build nice things with it.
    (*) Web Dynpro ABAP: it will become a very nice product as well. We should know :). But, it will definitely not ship on NW04 platform. Which unfortunately means the next great NW shipment (both naming and date is not available).
    From our experience, most people seem to make their decisions based on the available Java versus ABAP skills in the shop. However, the other factor to look at is also "pixel perfect" rendering. Only with BSP can you influence the rendering. Web Dynpro is more a development platform for business applications, and as such they must conform to the designated model/concepts, etc.
