Report with Default Value

hi,
in a report i want to display defualt value instead of null or blank.
Actually in my report one column contains null values, on this column i put a link,
if the value is null then on a report it display blank space without box.
it doesn't look good, so i want to display some default value if it is null say('-')
Can anyone give solution, how to do this?

Hi,
You could try using the empty-cells style on the table.
For example, if you are using theme 12's Standard report template, you could add the following into the page's HTML Header setting:
<style type="text/css">
.t12standard {empty-cells:show}
</style>Alternatively, on the Report Attributes for your report's region, there is a setting "Show Null Values as" - you could put your - in there

  • Auto run report with default parameters in Viewer

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me if it's possible to automatically run reports in Disco Viewer with default parameter values?
    For example, I have a worksheet with a parameter like 'Term like :Term Code' which has a default value of '%'.
    When I open the sheet in Viewer I'm presented with the Confirmation screen with default parameter values displayed and then click OK to run report. Is there a way to skip the confirmation screen and just run the sheet with default values as soon as it's opened?
    I tried using the 'Run Query Automatically' option in Query Governor preference but this results in Viewer opening the Edit Parameters screen instead of the confirmation screen.
    What I'd ideally like to do is bypass both the Confirmation and Edit Parameters screen to automatically run the worksheet with default parameters as soon as it's selected.
    Any thoughts appreciated,
    Ien Hien

    Hi,
    Option 1
    If the user is clicking on a URL for the report you could code the parameters directly into the URL thus, they are passed on startup. Section 13.5.2 Example 2 of the below URL provides an example:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13918_03/urlstart.htm#i1014363
    Option 2 (Not Exactly what your looking for)
    This would still require a user to click something but, if your passing a wildcard it should probably be considered,
    If the parameter might be a wild card your better off making it an Optional Parameter which is now possible in Discoverer Plus 10.1.2. Thus, instead of passing an expensive % sign the condition will simply be ignored.
    Hopefully this helps....

  • How to preset fields in TA BP with default values

    Hi!
    I want to fill few fields in transaction BP with default values.
    This should be if there`s a new business partner to insert.
    If i can do this depending on the selected role it was the best
    First i thought on SPA/GPA-parameters ... but then i can`t do it in depence on the selected role.
    In customizing i can tell only if a field should be displayed or not, for input or not, ... but no values to insert.
    Is here anybody with a good idea for me?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi,
    There is one possibility which requires an enhancement of the
    BDT event ISDAT and a call to the function module
    BUP_BUPA_FIELDVALUES_SET. This means that an ISDAT function module needs to be written (transaction BUS7) which calls the function module BUP_BUPA_FIELDVALUES_SET with the needed values that are to be defaulted. You can read the role value using BUS_PARAMETERS_ISSTA_GET (T_RLTYP).The fields which are possible can be found in the DDIC structure BUSDEFAULT. However this is limited only to the fields inside this structure.
    Thanks and warm regards,

  • Initialize some fields in material master with default values

    Hi,
    I would like to initialize some fields in material master MM01 with default values.
    for exemple in the view MRP1 there is a field MRP type I would like to initialize PD in the field as default value.
    but when I go to the technical information there is no parameter id that I can use in SU3.
    Do you know how I can the initialize the field those don't have parameter ID?
    thank
    Dede

    Dear Glenn,
    This is possible in SAP for this use T code MMD1 and create MRP profile and assign this MRP profile while creating material using MM01 in the organisation level put this created MRP profile. The values you maintained in this profile get copied to the material by default.
    To maintain MRP profile go to MMD1->give your profile name...........> click on  selection screen push button--->give here profile description--->select what MRP  field which u want to make fixed one/default. if make fixed later you can not change--
    >click on data screen 1 push button and maintain your value and save

  • Initializu00EDng select options field with default values and with NO INTERVALS

    Dear All,
    I have used WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS technology within WD Abap.

    lt_range_table =

    Can I assign two values to this field 'PLANT' whereby the user may take only these values.
    I mean kind of pre initializíng of this select options field with default values.
    Due to this handling it should be prevented that the user can give other values
    except this values.
    Additonally it should be fine whether it is possible to disable the second input field
    of this select options field like NO INTERVALS .

  • Table editor problem with default value for column

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to use SQL Developer 1.2.1 on Ubuntu 7.10 (though I don't think the OS is relevant) and I'm running into a snag when trying to update table structures. If you go to edit the table to say modify a column name, and that column has a default value set, SQL Developer is encapsulating the value with brackets and quotes. When trying to save the changes, it complains about the default value being 4 chars too many for the column width. An example of this would be a currency code column of varchar2 (3) set with EUR as the default. SQL Developer changes the value to ('EUR') hence the error.
    Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?
    Cheers,
    Chris

    Could you please be more specific? In 1.2.1.32.40 I
    added the column COL1 VARCHAR2(3) with default value
    'EUR'. The data display field refreshed to show the
    default value, so I edited it in a couple of entries
    and comitted the change without problem. Then I
    renamed the column from the "Edit table" popup menu.
    Finally, I renamed the column from the "Rename
    column" popup menu, no problem either.Ah, you are correct. That does work. What I was trying is select tablename in the object browser, then right click on it and select "Edit" from the contextual menu. You are then presented with edit table dialog box. If you then select a column in that box you will see a column properties box. In that section you can change the name, default value, datatype et cetera. Note that your default column value which should just be EUR (or 'EUR' to denote that it's a string) is now ('EUR'). Once you try changing the name to of the column to something else and then click OK, you should then get an error complaining of "Invalid varchar2 default value" with a more specific message of "Default values size 7 is greater than the allowed 3"
    You have provided a work around, and thanks for that, but it would be nice to edit everything in the Edit table dialog box if you're modifying more than one column name. I'm tasked with cleaning up a bit of a messy database, and there are a good deal of columns to be renamed.
    Cheers,
    Chris

  • I want to set a variable with default value and can be changed by the user

    hi,
    i want to set a variable with default value and can be changed by the user, so i new a variable with setting : customer exit, single value, optional, ready for input.
    in my customer exit code, i set a default value, eg. 20070530
    when the variable screen popup, it display the default value 20070530, i changed it to 20070529, but it doesn't work , it still display the data in 20070530, how can i solve this problem? 
    your help is appreciated.

    Liu,
       As mentioned by Anil, you need to restrict your customerr Exit code to I_STEP = 1.
    or.
       <u>Open your Variable in change mode, in the Last Page os the Variable Maintenance you can provide default value. Note: you are doing same thing in Customer Exit. In your case no need of Customer Exit.</u>

  • Report-to-Report Interface problem with default values

    Hi all.
    I have RTR interface where target query has default values, so when I jump to target query it doesn't return whole data because of this default filter.
    Is it possible to remove this default filter in query in case it is executed through Report-To-Report?
    I still need this default filter then I execute target query separately.

    Dear Gediminas,
    Make sure that you have same infoobjects which are having default values present in the 2 queries.
    After createing settings in RRI...select that setting.....click on ASSIGNMENT DETAILS tab...
    Assign Type as how they are in 1st query...
    Assign selection type as how they are in 1st query...

  • Report Parameter Default Value at runtime

    Post Author: DMiller
    CA Forum: .NET
    Hi,
    I need to be able to create new parameters at runtime and have been somewhat successful in this endeavor. I have one remaining issue that I am hoping that somebody can help me with. Let me explain.
    When you create a parameter from within the Crystal XI designer, you are able to specify a number of default values that will display as a list box at runtime. Eg. ParameterName is MaritalStatus and default values are ("Married", "Single", "Divorced" etc). There is also the ability to specify the Default Value in the Value Options area of the screen. This value could be set to any one of the default values above - let's say that I set it to "Single". By setting the Default Value, this causes the Parameter Fields screen, at runtime, to "Select" the specific default value set above - in this case "Single", instead of showing "..." as the parameter value.
    The default value setting in the Value Options is beneficial when you have reports that are usually run with certain parameter values and only occasionally these need to change. Instead of having to specify every parameter value, the user only has to set the ones that have not been defaulted or they want to change.
    So, I have been successful in creating the parameters at runtime and successfully running the report. I have been unsuccessful in setting the "Default Value" as seen in the Value Options area. I have tried a number of properties on the report parameter object and have not found anything to set this.
    Does anybody know how to set the "Default Value" as seen in the Value Options area in the designer at runtime?
    Thanks for any help.

    CA Forum: .NET
    You have described my scnario to a tee.  Did you ever figure out how to get the single default value that is available in the "value options" area when working within the Crystal Reports development environment.  I am using VB.Net and have a nice report menu form and viewer but recently a user ask me to set the default value in one of my combo boxes and I have been unsuccessful in finding the correct property to use.

  • Problem executing BEx query Hierarchy variable with default value

    My query has hierarchy variable on 0MOVETYPE char with a default value . The 0MOVETYPE variabale restriction is in Static filter area.
    I got timeout on query execution not because of amount of data but because of this hier. variable. Any ideas why?
    Notes:
    a) The hierarchy and the 0MOVETYPE characteristic are active and correct.
    b) I've tried RSRT check, but got the same timeout error.
    c) query executes fine on dev environment. I'm getting timeouts on PRD (as I say not because of amont of data)

    Hi,
    1. Try generating the report in RSRT and see if query runs correctly
    2. Looks like you are dafulating onto top node which contains whole data may be. This is not correct as it will definitely slow down the report based on amount of data it contains. Try to remove default and try first whether query is opening.
    3. You can put some lower level defualt to understand whether amount of data is the issue.
    4. Try to increase the server time out setting and see if it runs.
    Thanks and regards

    Hello,
    I dont remember of any standard variable but still you can wait to see if any1 comes up with one.
    Or else you can try the foll:
    Create the variable as per your requirement.
    Then in CMOD, write a simple code for i_step = 1.
    logic can be l_t_range-low = sy-datum - 1.
