Report questions

hi all,
please send me the answer for the following questions,
1.how to add extra column to the existing report.
2.how to add new field to existing report.
regards
Suprith

Hi
for adding the extra field and column for the existing report you add that field in the structure and put that field in the select statement and write statement.
i am giving an example for better understanding.
this is my existing report:
tables:sflight.
types: begin of st_table,
       carrid type s_carr_id,
       connid type s_conn_id,
      end of st_table.
data:wa_table type st_table,
     it_table type standard table of st_table.
select-options:s1 for sflight-carrid.
select carrid connid from sflight into table it_table
    where carrid in s1.
loop at it_table into wa_table.
write:/ wa_table-carrid,
        wa_table-connid.
        endloop.
this is modified one:
tables:sflight.
*----structure declaration
types: begin of st_table,
       carrid type s_carr_id,
       connid type s_conn_id,
       fldate type s_date,"i add this field into this structure
        end of st_table.
data:wa_table type st_table,
     it_table type standard table of st_table.
select-options:s1 for sflight-carrid.
select carrid connid fldate from sflight into table it_table
    where carrid in s1."i put that field in select statement
loop at it_table into wa_table.
write:/ wa_table-carrid,
        wa_table-connid,
        wa_table-fldate."here i wrote that field
        endloop.
if you execute this you will get that extra field and extra column for that existing report.

Financial Reporting Question - Formula row Issue

Hello,
I have a financial reporting question and would like to have your inputs in order to achieve what I am trying to do.
I have a report with two grids – grid 1 & grid 2. And there is a formula row in grid 2 that is “change between the two years” worth of data. The year and period combination is in the page of the grids.
Formula row (in grid 2) = ((Grid1.[b,6]) - [b,6]) / [b,6]
The issue is when I change the Page selection in Grid 1 the formula in grid 2 doesn’t get updated values unless and until I make a change in the grid 2 Page selection too. If I don’t make any changes in the page selection in grid 2 it keeps the data (looks like it is still considering the previously retrieved/calculated values) as it is without any update.
How can I make the formula row in grid 2 dynamic so that it gets updated no matter what combination of page selection I make in either grid 1 or grid 2 or even if I just change something in grid 1 and nothing in grid 2?
Please let me know your inputs. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Krrish

Page POV will be specific to the grid.Why can't you try to have the POV at the report level.In the HTML view of the report,the report will give you a Drop Down to select POV for all Grids.Select All Grids option and then set the POV which will be same for both the grids (which you want) and all your formulas will work.

Updateable Report Question.

Updateable Report Question.
Currently I am developing an XE application, so I think that is apex 2.0.
Here is an example of what I wish to achieve.
Suppose I have an emp table with columns
dept, id, name and comment.
I create an SQL report as
SELECT * from emp;
I only wish to see the name and comment columns, so in the report attributes I un-tick show the columns dept and id.
I want the user to be able to update the comment column, So I edit the comment column and in “Tabular Form Element” I change the “Display As” from “Standard Report Column” to “Text Field”
This now lets me edit the data in the column in the report.
Now want to add in an on change event to call a javascript routine that will use ajax to do the actual update.
My problem is that I need to pass in the “hidden” dept and id column values as well as the modified text, thus
In “Tabular Form Element” – “Element Attributes” add in
onchange="updateRemarks(#DEPT#, #ID#, this.value)"
Unfortunately this does not work, apex does not expand the #DEPT# & #ID#, and just passes in the literal text.
So how can I achieve this?
Thanks,
GP>

The columns and rows have a set format for the Id, so if you know one Id you know the row and the ids of all the other columns.
As an example, this will show the value of column 6 when you click on any column with the function call in the Element Attributes:
Script:
<script type="text/javascript">
function showCol6(col){
var col6 = document.getElementById("f06_" + col.id.substr(4,4));
alert(col6.value);
</script>Element Attributes:
onclick=showCol6(this);You could also use a Named Column template, specific to this region, to include the column values directly in the function call, but I think it's best to stick with the ApEx defaults if possible.

BEx Variable in Webi Report questions

Hi Gurus,
Here is my issue.
I created a BEx Query 0SD_C03 Cube with following fields
Two Columns
One Key Figure: Subtotal1
One Restricted Key Figure: Subtotal with restriction " Sales Organization 1000"
Two Rows Plant, Sales Organization
One Variable with Sales Organization.
When I ran this query in BEx Analyzer I can see all Sales Organization values in prompt list, How ever when I created a Universe and ran a webi query I can see 1000 in the Sales Organization list.
Is this because I have restricted Key Figure with Sales Organization 1000 in the query?
I removed my Restricted Key Figure from my query and tried again this time I see some 10 Sales Oraganizations but I didn't see all available Sales Organizations. Does BO Universe LOVs restricte the list?
Thanks

Supply Shortage Report question

Hi
Supply Shortage Report question:
In my cube I have material, 0calday, receipts and demand key figures.
Formula for Supply Shortage = Receipts u2013 Demand.
Users want to see number of consecutive days a particular productu2019s Supply shortage value is below zero.
Input criteria:
Date range:
Consecutive days:
For e.g. If user enters date range as u201C06/01/2010 u2013 07/31/2010u201D and Consecutive days as u201C4u201D they want to see all the products which have u2013ve Supply shortage values consecutively for 4days or more.
Can anyone tell me how we can accomplish this in Bex? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please check the follwoing option.
Load the msae data in one more DSO which will be a lookup DSO. In that DSO theer will be a daily load with the date as "Historization Date" which will keep the Current date with every load. In that DSO calculate Shortage Indiactor
Shortage Indicator 1 if Receipts < requirement.
By doing this you will be having Data with Historization date (Daily) with an Indicator for Shortage.
Now while loading this cube populate one Chracteritics a Shortage Counter by doing look up theis DSO.
You need to Indicator in the DSO with today's date and historization date and you need to add the counter on the basis of avilable consecutive entries by putting a loop for the same.
By this approach you may achieve your need.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,
S

Simple Report Question

Post Author: scott123
CA Forum: General
I want to take the information in a simple excel table and recreate it 3 times, each time sorting/grouping on a different columnHere is the tableAnd here is the report that I'm trying to generate (first sorted by name, alphabetically, then grouped by rank, then grouped by size) I'm comfortable working with excel tables in Crystal, but I'm running into a problem repeating the information and then sorting each group separately. I also have no problem doing each group in a single report (without repeating any records), but I'd like to include all 3 groups in a single report. My apologies for how remedial this question is- I thought for sure that Crystal could do this easily but I've spent a couple of days on this and am running into a brick wall.

That's right Scott, and maybe make them "on demand"
sub reports so the user only has to see the data they
really want at the moment. Gives the report a nice clean look too.

Multiple Column Report Question

Post Author: LCS213
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
I'm creating a student transcript report that has multiple columns, and is three groups deep. The first two groups need to be in a columnar layout. However, I'd like the third group to contain a subreport that spans the width of the entire page.
Are there any options within Crystal XI to do this? I know in the Section Expert, i can format the detail level with multiple columns, and on the Layout tab, I can select "Format Groups with multiple columns". But that seems like it either formats ALL groups or NO groups. Am I mistaken? Is there a workaround I'm missing?
Thanks in advance for any help on this issue!

Hi Dan,
According to your description, we are not clear about the “6 sections for each Additional task”. Do you mean six data records? If so, based on my understanding, there are three groups and eighteen records in your report. You want to make those records appear
on eighteen separated pages, right?
In Reporting Service, we can add a page break to groups within data regions to control the amount of information on each page. In your scenario, you should add page break to group “Sub task”, group “Additional Task” and details. As we tested in our environment,
add page break to these records, the report appears in eighteen pages. Please refer to steps below:
1.On Group Properties of Details1, choose “Between each instance of a group” option on Page Breaks page. Please refer to screenshot below:
Choose same option on Group Properties for group “Month” and “Name”.
2.Click drop-down button next to Column Groups, then choose Advanced Mode.
3.Click on Static under Row Groups, set RepeatOnNewPage as True in Tablix Member Properties.
4.Click Preview, the results before and after adding page break look like below:
If you still have any question, please post some detail information or screenshot about the report design you expect.

Multiple page report question

My client would like to run a report by project. A project can have multiple sub-tasks and each sub-task can have additional tasks. Each additional task has 6 sections on the report which all need to be separated by page breaks. The report
need to separated by the additional tasks so in the example below I would have 18 pages of reports, grouped by Sub task and Additional task. How do I group this report to make it work correctly? Would sub-reports work better - still having trouble
with the grouping issue as well on those.
Project
         Sub task 1
                      Additional Task1
                      Additional Task 2
         Sub Task 2
                      Additional Task 1

Summary Report question regarding data that is included and data that is not.

I have a survey that is running at the momemt with about 15% of the expected responses(250-300) which I'll gather over the next couple of weeks. When I check the current Summary Report it omits several of the questions and answers shown in the current Analyze table. Is this to be expected? I really like the Summary Report and want my co-chairs to be able to enter when they have time to glance at the current results via the Summary Report tab.
Thank you
Carol

Sorry that you're having trouble Carol. In the Summary Report tab, are you able to add report tiles for fields without tiles by using the Insert menu?

Mail report question

Hi there,
This may be a crazt question but I was curious if there was a way to get information from apple mail in report format.
I would like to create report showing waht folder the email is in.
My reason for doing this I seem tobe missing emails. So instead of going in to each folder, I wondered if I could generate a report of some kind to do it. Maybe an Applescript? I do not know how to create scripts.
Or is there a way to add an additonal header in MAIL that would show the folder the email is saved in?
Thanks and I look forward to your reply.
...Bruce

OK, so first some background:
1) The basic process goes like this:
a) one release doc (edited by the developer, presumably) and the
template docs are copied to the build area
b) Each doc is unzipped (ODT's are just ZIP files) into a subdir
c) The doc contents are copied around; this is to allow Ant to
replace its special @VAR@ variables in the document content
d) The docs are zipped back up into ODTs
e) The ODTs are converted into PDFs using OOo's macro functionality
Here are the troubleshooting steps I would apply:
1) Make sure the external.odt file exists - check the build area
(//content/build/<pluginname>/tmp/) and can be opened using normal
OpenOffice
2) Check that the release.odt file exists (same location) and can be
opened using normal OpenOffice
3) See if you can manually convert the external.odt file into a PDF -
the command we use is simply:
soffice -invisible
macro:///Standard.Collectors.External2PDF(${pkgdir}/tmp/external.odt)
(replace ${pkgdir} with the build directory path).
If all that works, then the Ant build process should work.
Also - what does that OpenOffice error popup say?

OBIEE / BI Publisher report question

Hi, quick OBIEE / BI Publisher question. We have a requirement to produce a very formatted, complex report. All of the data exists in OBIEE - but there are multiple subject areas needed to answer the questions (thus multiple Answers queries).
Assuming I can create an Answers report with the raw data for each section (i.e. a "header" section, "detailed cost" section, "budget" section, etc. - each of which would be done in a separate Answers query), is it possible to use BI Publisher to then "string together" each of the separate sections into one integrated report?
I'm not very BI Publisher literate. I know how to use an Answers query as the "source" for a BI publisher report. But I'm not sure how to have multiple Answers queries embedded on a single BI Publisher report.
Thanks in advance!
Scott

Hi Scott,
In your BIP report you'll need to create a separate "Data Set" for each Answer. Then all you need to do is click on "Data Model" and select "Concatenated SQL Data Source" as the Main Data Set. This will combine the results into a single xml result set.

Crystal Report Question on query

I am trying to design a report to where it lists a name of a unique person in a table and totals the amount of money they owe. Essentially it's a letter for parking tickets and it will total all the fine amounts for that individual person. I don't know how to design the report to produce this result and how to design the query to produce this result.

Hi, I copied the question, so I would not miss anything.
I am trying to design a report to where it lists a name of a unique person in a table and totals the amount of money they owe. Essentially it's a letter for parking tickets and it will total all the fine amounts for that individual person. I don't know how to design the report to produce this result and how to design the query to produce this result.
First off, depending on your version of CR, some of the instructions may not be correct. I have CRXI
Create a group based on the persons information (I assume you would have a drivers license number, or something you could group off of. You may also want to group off date/time or amount.
In your details section drop in whatever fields you wish to return from the Database.
When you run your report, you should see all the records, sorted by the persons Id and then the date.
Now, this will be more data than you want, so you can use the select expert to limit what is returned. For example if the ticket is paid, you do not need to send a letter. The select statement will look something like this, if your field that indicates a ticket is paid is ticket_# not ({Ticket_#} like "paid") So if Paid shows up in that field, the record is suppressed. Also, look at the example reports, they may help you get some id's

BW 7.1 reporting question

Hello Experts,
Question on supressing selected rows in reports(either using WAD in a webtemplate) or in the Query.
I have a structure which calculates cost(selected GL account hierarchy), sales(selected GL account hierarchy) and gross(formula:sales-costs) in a report which has GL account as free charecterstic.
When I run the report, the initial report is 3 lines with sales, costs and gross. When I add free charecteristic GL Account, I need the GL account details(rows) in cost and sales only but not in Gross which is what is happening. Any ideas how to supress these rows?
Below is an example for clarity.
Sales 9999
Cost 1111
Gross 8888
Add gl account
Sales   GL1      100
Saes    GL2      200
Cost     GL91     50
Cost     GL92     50
Gross GL1       100
Gross GL2       200
Gross GL91    50
Gross GL92    50
I want the Gross total to be displayed as one line only! Thanks for your help

I suggest you to change structure of your column/row. Instead of putting your KF to row, put it in column like below.
Sales   Cost    Gross
9999    1111    8888
So when you drill down using GL acc, something like below will be produce
            Sales   Cost    Gross
GL1     100       50        50
GL2     200       50        150
Regards
