Reports vrs sap scripts

hi all
         i just want to know the difference between sapscripts and reports from end user point of view and what are the particular cases where we can use only scripts but not reports and vice versa.
thanks and regards
A.Srikanth.

Hi,
<b>SAP Script </b>supplies the layout (for example, page size) and
content (for example, sales data for an invoice) for your business
forms. You need SAPscript forms to print, distribute, or display the
business forms.
A <b>Report </b>is the way to display data fetched from database table onto screen or directly output it to a printer. It is of two types – Classical and Interactive. Generally reports are designed for internal use for in house users.

  • Report with SAP Script

    hi guys,
      if i need to develop a report for purchase order using SAP script..how can that be possible???what is the name of the SAP script and how can we find that script???
    regards
    kalpana

    Hi Kalpana,
             The standard SAP Script form for PO is MEDRUCK,
    If You want to modify that form means take a copy of that form and modify it.
             The print program for MEDRUCK is SAPFM06P.
    You can get this Print programs from TNAPR table.
             Have you ever worked in VK01 transaction or created an IDOC. If Yes,it will be easy to print the form.

    Summary of sapscript EXPORT / IMPORT process.
    Steps to export Layout Sets (sapscript)
    Log on the Source system and client
    This may have to be client 000 and then again in the client in which you do developement.
    Note that sapscript is client dependent
    SE38 and execute program RSTXR3TR
    Tranport number: DS1K9#####
    Mode field: EXPORT
    File system: Server -  radio button
    The dataset name: /usr/sap/trans/data/DS1K9#####.layoutsets
    CHECK the Display dataset contents checkbox
    Execute
    Steps to import Layout Sets (sapscript)
    Log on the target system and client.  This may have to be client 000 and then in the client in which you test, or ultimatly production.
    SE38 and execute program RSTXR3TR
    Tranport number: DS1K9#####
    Mode field: IMPORT
    The dataset name: /usr/sap/trans/data/DS1K9#####.layoutsets
    CHECK the Display dataset contents checkbox
    Execute
    Note: when importing into Production, the export does not need to be performed. 
    Therefore only the import protion is required once the sapscript has been exported from Development.

  • How to display the number of line items in sap-script report?

    Hi friends,
    I need a help regarding the SAP Script. In my script (report) I create two pages and created three windows (MAIN, HEADER, FOOTER) for each pages. Now the problem is while displaying the fewer line item which can come under the main window of the 1st page these line items are comming perfectly but for the remaining line items that comes on the second page the table headings and the boexs are not comming.
    Also it is displaying the total and the amount in text in every pages that should be display in last page.
    Here if I eleminate or comments the total and the amount in text for the first page the same is reflected in second page. Also I need to display the page-nor for each pages to displayed.
    I am requesting all the people out there kindly help me to solve this issues.
    Thanks and Regards

    There is no pre built solution for this. But we can show total pages in the report body.
    one way is Create a other column in the report with code sum(count(1))/25. that gives you total number of pages. 25 here is no of rows in each page. The code you can write in narrative "Total pages in the report are @5" and out put may be "Total Pages in the report are 30".
    If you are using pivot tables, you can try this.

    Hi Sandeep,

    Calling ABAP Subroutines: PERFORM
    You can use the PERFORM command to call an ABAP subroutine (form) from any program, subject to the normal ABAP runtime authorization checking. You can use such calls to subroutines for carrying out calculations, for obtaining data from the database that is needed at display or print time, for formatting data, and so on.
    PERFORM commands, like all control commands, are executed when a document is formatted for display or printing. Communication between a subroutine that you call and the document is by way of symbols whose values are set in the subroutine.
    Syntax in a form window:
    /: PERFORM <form> IN PROGRAM <prog>
    /: USING &INVAR1&
    /: USING &INVAR2&
    /: CHANGING &OUTVAR1&
    /: CHANGING &OUTVAR2&
    /: ENDPERFORM
    INVAR1 and INVAR2 are variable symbols and may be of any of the four SAPscript symbol types.
    OUTVAR1 and OUTVAR2 are local text symbols and must therefore be character strings.
    The ABAP subroutine called via the command line stated above must be defined in the ABAP report prog as follows:
    FORM <form> TABLES IN_TAB STRUCTURE ITCSY
    OUT_TAB STRUCTURE ITCSY.
    ENDFORM.
    The values of the SAPscript symbols passed with /: USING... are now stored in the internal table IN_TAB . Note that the system passes the values as character string to the subroutine, since the field Feld VALUE in structure ITCSY has the domain TDSYMVALUE (CHAR 80). See the example below on how to access the variables.
    The internal table OUT_TAB contains names and values of the CHANGING parameters in the PERFORM statement. These parameters are local text symbols, that is, character fields. See the example below on how to return the variables within the subroutine.
    From within a SAPscript form, a subroutine GET_BARCODE in the ABAP program QCJPERFO is called. Then the simple barcode contained there (u2018First pageu2019, u2018Next pageu2019, u2018Last pageu2019) is printed as local variable symbol.
    Definition in the SAPscript form:
    /: PERFORM GET_BARCODE IN PROGRAM QCJPERFO
    /: USING &PAGE&
    /: USING &NEXTPAGE&
    /: CHANGING &BARCODE&
    /: ENDPERFORM
    / &BARCODE&
    Coding of the calling ABAP program:
    REPORT QCJPERFO.
    FORM GET_BARCODE TABLES IN_PAR STUCTURE ITCSY
    OUT_PAR STRUCTURE ITCSY.
    DATA: PAGNUM LIKE SY-TABIX, "page number
    NEXTPAGE LIKE SY-TABIX. "number of next page
    READ TABLE IN_PAR WITH KEY u2018PAGEu2019.
    CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
    PAGNUM = IN_PAR-VALUE.
    READ TABLE IN_PAR WITH KEY u2018NEXTPAGEu2019.
    CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
    NEXTPAGE = IN_PAR-VALUE.
    READ TABLE IN_PAR WITH KEY u2018BARCODEu2019.
    CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.
    IF PAGNUM = 1.
    OUT_PAR-VALUE = u2018|u2019. "First page
    ELSE.
    OUT_PAR-VALUE = u2018||u2019. "Next page
    ENDIF.
    IF NEXTPAGE = 0.
    OUT_PAR-VALUE+2 = u2018Lu2019. "Flag: last page
    ENDIF.
    MODIFY OUT_PAR INDEX SY-TABIX.
    ENDFORM.

  • Changes are not reflecting while executing the SAP script from report

    HI,
    In SAP-script we are nmaking changes in form in client 130
    it is showing the changes in 140 client but while excuting the report the same are not reflecting in the output.
    Thanks in Advance
    Naveen M

    Hello.
    Scripts are mandant depentant. So you must copy from 130 to 140 for changes take efect.
    Do it in transaction SE71 in mandant 140, first screen, in the menu options.
    And never forget to activate it in all mandants.

  • Report ,sap-script,sreen painter,DDIC

    Hi all ,
    I have some query to ask.
    1)How to transport sap-script.
    2) print program of sap script are client-dependent or client-independent.
    3)Database tables ( on se11) are client-dependent or client-independent. ( is sy-mandt will make dependent or independent)
    4) how to create select-option on screen painter or with module pool programming.
    5)performance tips while creating ABAP report.

    points for all answers assured.
    thanks.

    Hi Pillac,
    Here is answers..
    1)How to transport sap-script.
    While creating sap-script form it will ask you for abap package (class), if you assign standard package then it will ask you for change request. After completing your development you need to release your request and transport across system.
    2) print program of sap script are client-dependent or client-independent.
    Print program is client independent.
    3)Database tables ( on se11) are client-dependent or client-independent. ( is sy-mandt will make dependent or independent)
    MANDT field indicates it is client dependent table.
    4) how to create select-option on screen painter or with module pool programming.
    Check out following link...
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/fc/eb2d81358411d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
    5)performance tips while creating ABAP report.
    1. Do not use nested select statement.
    2. Use joins if possible ( But with limited number of tables)
    3. If you have more than 100-200 records do not use for all entries which degrades the performance.
    4. Try to use primary keys while selecting data from tables.
    5. If number of records too high in DB table and  select is not on primary key...create secondary index with where clause..will imrpove performance.
    6) How to generate new number whenever a new report is created.(e.g. when we create a customer or materia one new number ro name will be generated for customer or material).
    Create Number Range. You can use function module GET_NEXT_NUMBER which will give you next number everytime whenever you execute it.
    Cheers,

  • New Page Format implentation in Sap Scripts and Reports

    Hi,
       I want to print Report details and also some of the SAP Script details on the paper size of 350MM width and 310MM Height in the PORTRAIT format.
       So i created new page format with these dimensions.
       How i can use this for reports. So i can set these parameters while taking output from Report.
       Pls specify if any configuration required for this.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Regards,
    Pavan.

    In SAPscript, you set the Page Format for the document in the "Page Format" field of the "Basic Settings" page of the documents "Header" information. The popup list of this field will show all available formats in your system, so this is a ggod way to make sure your new format is set up properly.
    For reports, page format is set either with the LINE-SIZE addition to the REPORT and NEW-PAGE commands, or through the PARAMETERS addition to the NEW-PAGE command. When you use LINE-SIZE the print system picks the format for you, based on the available formats in the systems.
    I don't remember if there is an activation step for Page Formats, or if saving is all you have to do.

  • Is it possible to can a program (report output) from SAP Script?

    Hi,
    From SAP Script I would like to call a report output (without displaying the selection screen).
    Is this possible. If so, how can I do this?
    Thanks.

    H i kumar g,
    why not?
    In script you can call external subroutine. You must define the subroutine in a program, there you can do a SUBMIT or whatever you want.
    See online docu for further explanation.
