Getting a weird error in Report Writer Report(ABAP Reporting tool)

Hi Guys,
If anybody has worked on Report Writer Report.Can you help me in this regards?
There is a peculiar problem for the (Column block) .In the Column block there are 3 key figures(Quantity,Local Currency and Group Currency).
Of these in the output of the Report Writer Report the Quantity Column is not getting summed up properly.Though the other 2 columns(Local Currency and Group Currency)are reflecting the proper summed up data.
According to the tables, all of them are reflecting the accurate data.But only for the Quantity column though its reflecting the actual data,but the summation for it is not reflecting the correct data.
Can anybody tell me if we can attach screen-shots for Questions posted in Forums?
Please help me in this regards.

Hi James,
Thank you for your quick response.
I checked the report and the remainder functions is not being used.
The only formulas being used in the report are the following.
UpperCase ([1])
+ ", " + - This is set to @name
{@name} + " (" + + ")"
There are some formatting formulas set on the above values, but other than that, there is a sql query and the "select distinct rows" and "perform grouping on server" is selected.
Thanks,
Jayashree

Report Writer Issues

A user transported Report Writer objects into a production system which is affecting other businesses data when they run report writer. The first issue I am seeing is that incorrect variants are defaulting fir at least one Report Group, and maybe more. I suppose it is impossible to back out the transports that are causing the problem?
How does the variant default to a specific report Group?
Any other Report Writer transactions, info, or other materials will be appreciated.
Thank-You

In the lead column, this is where you define your row definitions. For example if you are using GL accounts these would be defined here. Next, create another row definition by double clicking. It will bring up an option. Pick formula. Then you can do math calculations.
In the currency column you should only define one currency. This is your key figure. Also select the characteristics that you want it to be based on 'ie fiscal year'. If in FI try TSL.

Report Writer Translation

Hi,
Our requirement is to translate a report writer report from english to Chinese.In one of the reports the texts were partially maintained are we need to translate the rest of the texts.The library element is custom created.
Inference
1. Chinese language is maintained in GCRS tcode.
2. In GRRT could not find the corresponding texts displayed in the screen shot below.
3. Tried looking in the notes 184552,166852. But couldn't resolve.
Question.
1. Can we translate such partially translated report writer reports?
2. How can we do it?.
Thanks,

Hi
I' ve the same problem, i created a "currency translation exchange rate types" and i would like to select it in my report. But when i use "currency translation" via a right click on a price, there is only the rate type : "CM: Fixed target currency, Current Date". How could i see my specific rate type ?
Thanks

GR55 reports display in different currency

Hi SPL gurus,
Hope you can help me with this GR55 question.
My customer needs to apply different (constant) exchange rate type while running the GR55 reports for all the company codes to ensure constant reporting across without taking account the flux in the exchange rates. I have therefore setup a constant exchange rate types, ratios and exchange rates in customizing.
When I then run GR55 some reports show the figures in the new rate and some seem to ignore the rate (currencies/company codes are the same). My question is - does anybody know if there is a second setting for the currency rate type on the Report Painter/Writer itself? If so can maybe somebody point me to it?
Any other suggestions why some reports do work and some don't?
Many thanks,
Annika

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for the answer. It is not user specific problem.
I think I already found an answer myself - some of my reports are in corporate currency and some in local.
Anything in Global currency does not for some reason convert, only the reports on local currency do apply the different exchange rates correctly.
I think I will need to redesign all the Global currency reports. Do you agree?
Thanks again,
Annika

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.

Special purpose Ledger - Report writer

Hi,
I created a report using report writer. The purpose of the report is to display the margin, business area wise.
I have two company codes with different currencies using the same business area.
My ledger currency is USD
Cocd 1 = USD
Cocd 2 = CAD
If for a GL a/c I want to display the values for both cocd in USD as well as CAD, how do I do the same.
Is it possible to display two currencies in one report.

Thank you for the information Louise. Additionally, to see a log of changes to multiple G/L accounts over a specified date range, SAP program RFSABL00 can be executed via Tcode SA38.
Unfortunately, from what I've seen so far there is no historial change log in SAP for reports. The only post on the net that I've found regarding this issue is at [http://www.sapfans.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=219528], and within the post on that site it states to execute a business process to upload documentation of changes made within the report. From my point of view, the changes logged to report configuration are akin to saving a Notepad file within Windows; the file properties state who changed the file and at what time it was changed, but it doesn't tell you the content that was changed.
I'm keeping this open in hopes that anyone out there in SAP-land can find something!

Report Writer (Table FAGLFLEXT)

I have created a group of reports in Report Writer where the table of data that use is the FAGLFLEXT.
But, I have a problem for the Companies that use local currency CLP are in the table FAGLFLEXT, Report Writer in thousands of CLP and in Transactions FBL3N/FS10N the amount appears correct, them attached an example.
Table FAGLFLEXT     CLP   12.000,00
Report Writer             CLP   12.000,00
FBL3N/FS10N     CLP     1.200.000 ( Amount Correct)
As additional information I can comment to them that the same does not happen to the other currencies (USD, MXN, BRL, PEN), them attached example
Table FAGLFLEXT     USD 10.000,00
Report Writer             USD 10.000,00
FBL3N/FS10N     USD 10.000,00 ( Amount Correct)
It applies a solution but this it affects all the currencies to me, it modifies a Seth of ratio of the currencies and (HSL * 100) multiplies percent but to this it affects me change in all the currencies.
Friendly, since I can do so that the Report Writer shows the whole amounts to me of CLP and that they do not affect the other currencies.
Thank you very much to all u2026.!!!!!

Hi,
I have the same problem. Please advice on the solution.
Best regards,

Exchange rate for Budget in KE5A PC report - report writer

Hi Experts,
The User is using the report from report writer - 'P&L Actual - Plan Var MTD / YTD' in KE5A .
The company code currency is Brazilian Rials and is converted to USD for the report.
In the report the actuals column picks up the daily exchange and converts figures accordingly.
However in the Budget coulmn the exchange rate has to be the 'P' rate which is not happening.
The 'P' rate is for a full year and should not change.
How to fix the issue so that the Budget column will pick up 'P' rate.
Thanks
Ven

Ven Prakash,
You mentioned the report is "Actual vs. Plan" while you said there is a budget column in the report. First you need to clear whether it is budget or plan value because SAP has both plan value and budget value in controlling.
If it is budget value please check the budget profile to change the exchange rate type as you required. (TC: OKOB, OPS9)
If it is plan value please check the CO version to change the exchange rate type under Settings for Each Fiscal Year (TC: OKEQ)
Regards

Error generating report in Report writer (GR214, short dump)

Hello
We are making a report in GGR2. When generating the report group, we have dump with error:
Short text of error message:
Internal error.: SAPMGRW2, Include: MGRW2F20, FORM: GEN_DATAFI
ELD.
Long text of error message:
Technical information about the message:
Message class....... "GR"
Number.............. 214
Variable 1.......... "SAPMGRW2"
Variable 2.......... "MGRW2F20"
Variable 3.......... "GEN_DATAFIELD"
Variable 4.......... " "
I have generated as well via GR52 with the same result.
The report i try to generate has about 500 lines, uses a number of existing sets and has simple formulas in it. When i restrict the number of rows to say 400 I donu2019t have the issue. Is there a restriction to rows in report writer?
Thanks for your help
Kai

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.

I want the report to export to excel with some formatting.
The formatting that I want is that.
My report has 1 row of profit center which is variablized for user selection, when a user wants to see a report for a certain range of profit centers, he will enter that in the selection criteria, the report comes out looking fine how I want it but when I turn the excel integration on , I want all the profit centers that were selected in the selection screen to appear in a seperate tab in excel..
So one tab per profit center chosen , How do i do that?
please help, urgent.
thanks.

Hi,
Use section option,
Edit--- sections-New section (with profit center range).
Thanks

Modifications in Transaction S_ALR_87013611( Report Writer )

Hi Gurus,
I have a Standard transaction S_ALR_87013611 which in turn calls the transaction KSB1.This former transaction is developed using report writer. The Issue is that when I give Cost Center Values twice in the selection screen with multiple values , I get two cost centre values with same number and the corresponding values are added.So I need to restrict the Cost Centre values in the selection screen to unique values.And for that I need to modify the report . So if anyone have ever worked with report writer or report painter, please tell how to modify the report and add our own coding as in the case of ABAP Query.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for not replying...I have found the solution myself

Error message in report writer when add new selection filed?

Dear All,
I wanna add a new selection field cost element group and cost element to a report in report writer. I key in GR52 and click the general data selection. I select the set variable &1KSTAR to enter into the set ID. But it shows me the following message:
Set cannot be used in Selection:
Message no. GR807
Diagnosis
You are trying to use a set in report maintenance.
The set cannot be entered in the report definition for any of the dimensions for which the set could be used.
The following error message describes why the set cannot be used for all the dimensions for which the set can be used.
System Response
The set will not be entered in report maintenance.
Procedure
Choose an appropriate set.
What does it mean? I have tried other set variables but sitll gave the same message.
Thank you and good day.
Emma.

At the same time, it gave me a green light message saying:
Characteristic Cost Element is already used in a row
Message no. GR465
Diagnosis
The characteristic Cost Element is already being used in a report row block and therefore cannot be used in a different part of the report.
Technical note: The field name for characteristic Cost Element is KSTAR.
Does it mean I have used the cost element in the report and blocked the cost element so that I can't use it in the selection screen? How can I solve this by not changing the report or should I change the report?
Thank you and good day
Emma
