Reports: Reports consist of data, which is expected to be reveiwed  or checked the transaction taken in said period. Reports are useful for analysis of decision taking for future activities.
Sone of the standard reports for SD & its configuration guide is as under:
Standard SAP SD Reports:=
Statistic Group:
Purpose – To capture data for Standard Reports, we require to activate Statistic Group as under:
--> Item category (Configuration)
--> Sales document type (Configuration)
--> Customer (Maintain in Master data)
--> Material (Maintain in Master data)
When you generate statistics in the logistics information system, the system uses the combination of specified statistics groups to determine the appropriate update sequence. The update sequence in turn determines for exactly which fields the statistics are generated.
Configuration:
IMG --> Logistics Information System (LIS) --> Logistics Data Warehouse --> Updating --> Updating Control --> Settings: Sales --> Statistics Groups -->
1. Maintain Statistics Groups for Customers
2. Maintain Statistics Groups for Material
3. Maintain Statistics Groups for Sales Documents
4. Assign Statistics Groups for Each Sales Document Type
5. Assign Statistics Groups for each Sales Document Item Type .....
All Standard Reports which are available are as under:
SAP Easy Access: Information Systems -> Logistics -> Sales and distribution ->
1. Customer -> Incoming orders / Returns / Sales / Credit memos / Sales activities / Customer master / Conditions / Credit Master Sheet
2. Material -> Incoming orders / Returns / Sales / Credit memos / Material master / ...
3. Sales organization -> Sales organization / Sales office / Sales employee
4. Shipping point -> Deliveries / Returns
5. SD documents -> Orders / Deliveries / Billing documents ...
& so on.

  • What is Report to Analyst?

    Wondering what is Report to analyst property , is it used by BizTalk internally somewhere?
    Thanks, Girish R. Patil.

    There is an existing thread, refer the below short note & link 
    It's used when you generate a Visio diagram using the Orchestration Designer for Business Analysts. Any shape set with "report to analyst = false" won't show up in the diagram. Probably most useful for shapes that don't add business flow value,
    but are purely for internal orchestration setup/processing.

  • What is Report layout?

    What is Report layout?

    Hi Ajay,
    The information shown on line item reports (SAP describes them as “list displays”) can be controlled using a report Layout.  A Report Layout specifies the sequence of line items should be shown on and their positioning on the list etc.
    Cost centre line item reports are one of the more commonly used list displays but vendor, customer and general ledger line item reports are also list displays. 
    Check this link to know about report layout

  • What is Report category in SAP-HR Reports ?

    Hi SAP-HR Experts .
    Dear Friends tell me about
    What is Report category in SAP-HR Reports ?
    How to create it ?
    Can we set authorizations for a Repots , if Yes the how can we set it .?
    Please elaborate your replies with examples .
    Best Regards to ALL .
    Rajneesh .

    Report Category are used in reports with an LDB, usually PNP. Basically it's the configuration for the selection screen when the report is called. Among the choices you have which fields should appear on the first page, if sorting is allowed, etc, all sort of configuration.
    How to see.
    You can take one example, for example RPCALP0 (portuguese version, just substitute P0 with the version you use). Go to transaction SE38 and exhibit the report. Then yoy must select GOTO-->ATTRIBUTES and on the bottom tray there is a button that reads "HR report category". Just click that and on the next popup click Report Category again. So you have an example there of report category __M00001.
    To create it's the same way, when you EDIT a report and click on report category the next popup has a create button.
    The second question about authorization, it's quite simple, you can either use standard objects of authorization (like P_ORG for example), or your own Z objects. The sintax in ABAP is :
        AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'Z_AREA_SUB'
                 ID 'PERSA' FIELD w_werks
                 ID 'BTRTL' FIELD w_btrtl.
        if sy-subrc <> 0.
          CONTINUE.
        endif.
    This is an example for a Z object to read authorization for WERKS and BTRTL of an employee.

    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.

  • What is Report Document Format?

    Hi,
    I have seen "Report Document Format" in many Oracle Report Developer's job adverts. Following is an example.
    "Skills & Experience Required, Oracle Reports Developer - expert level, Report Document Format (RDF) - must have extensive knowledge in this area. Java Development, Working with Oracle Databases and good Communication Skills."
    My question is what is "Report Document Format"? I hope it is different from RDF (Report Definition File).
    Thanks.

  • *New to ABAP: what is Report*

    Hi Gurus,
    i am new to ABAP.If any body can explain about what is report and how many types are there to create internal tables.
    points will be reward.
    Thanks,
    Balakrishna.

    hi naidu,
    When you are working in the SAP System, you may want to access information from the database. To do this, you use reports.
    In this documentation, report refers to the report program, and list refers to the output u2013 that is, the results of the report.
    Some reports display information; others allow you to perform analyses.
    A report must be started, or executed. In many cases, the SAP System automatically executes a report. Sometimes, however, you will want to execute a report yourself.
    In addition to report programs, the SAP System provides numerous reporting tools, each of which has its own set of procedures for executing report programs.
    This documentation describes report programs only. For an introduction to the SAP reporting tools, refer to the Reporting Made Easy guidebooks (Release 4.0B). You can find these guidebooks at: www.saplabs.com/rme
    In ABAP, there are a total of 7 types of reports. They are:
    Classical
    Interactive
    Logical Database
    ABAP query
    ALV Reports (ALV stands for ABAP List Viewer)
    Report Writer/Report Painter Views (There are different types of views also)
    [Edit section] Classical Reports
    These are the most simple reports. Programmers learn this one first. It is just an output of data using the Write statement inside a loop.
    Classical reports are normal reports. These reports are not having any sub reports. IT IS HAVING ONLY ONE SCREEN/LIST FOR OUTPUT.
    Events In Classical Reports.
    INTIALIZATION: This event triggers before selection screen display.
    AT-SELECTION-SCREEN: This event triggers after proccesing user input still selection screen is in active mode.
    START OF SELECTION: Start of selection screen triggers after proceesing selection screen.
    END-OF-SELECTION : It is for Logical Database Reporting.
    [Edit section] Interactive Reports
    As the name suggests, the user can Interact with the report. We can have a drill down into the report data. For example, Column one of the report displays the material numbers, and the user feels that he needs some more specific data about the vendor for that material, he can HIDE that data under those material numbers.
    And when the user clicks the material number, another report (actually sub report/secondary list) which displays the vendor details will be displayed.
    We can have a basic list (number starts from 0) and 20 secondary lists (1 to 21).
    Events associated with Interactive Reports are:
    AT LINE-SELECTION
    AT USER-COMMAND
    AT PF<key>
    TOP-OF-PAGE DURING LINE-SELECTION.
    HIDE statement holds the data to be displayed in the secondary list.
    sy-lisel : contains data of the selected line.
    sy-lsind : contains the level of report (from 0 to 21)
    Interactive Report Events:
    AT LINE-SELECTION : This Event triggers when we double click a line on the list, when the event is triggered a new sublist is going to be generated. Under this event what ever the statements that are been return will be displayed on newly generated sublist.
    AT PFn: For predefined function keys...
    AT USER-COMMAND : It provides user functions keys.
    TOP-OF-PAGE DURING LINE-SELECTION :top of page event for secondary list.
    [Edit section] Logical Database Reports
    Logical database is another tool for ABAP reports. Using LDB we can provide extra features for ABAP reports.
    While using LDB there is no need for us to declare Parameters.
    Selection-screen as they will be generated automatically.
    We have to use the statement NODES in ABAP report.
    If there are many tables the Performance will be slow as all the table data will be read from top node to bottom node .
    [Edit section] ABAP Query Reports
    ABAP query is another tool for ABAP. It provides efficency for ABAP reports. These reports are very accurate.
    Transaction Code : SQ01
       The advantage with ABAP QUERY is logic required for classic & interactive reports system design automatically 80%.
    For ABAP QUERY handle these
    SQ01 ; QUERY
    SQ02 : INFOSET OR FUNCTIONAL AREA
    SQ03: USER GROUP.
    [Edit section] Report Writer
    Key Concept :
    Super users and end users can use Report Painter/Report Writer tools to write their own reports.
    Giving them the ability to report on additional fields at their discretion shifts the report maintenance burden to them, saving SAP support groups time and effort normally spent creating and maintaining the reports.
    Instead of using ABAP code to write a report in FI and CO, many users build a Report Painter/ Report Writer library using transaction MC27.
    However, this workaround has some drawbacks. Little known transaction GRCT solves these problems in most cases, and eliminates the need to use transaction MC27.
    ABAP Report Types
    ABAP report types are those ones available in some report's attributes screen, i.e. :
    Executable program
    Function group (containing function modules)
    Include
    Interface pool
    Class pool
    Module pool
    Subroutine pool
    Also ALV means ABAP List Viewer. Most convenient way to use it is through reuse library (cf. transaction se83) available from release 4.6 of SAP R/3.
    ALV is available in two modes: list and grid. List mode is good old list processing with standard functionnalities, and grid mode is using a new OCX object displaying grids.
    hope its clear to you,
    Reward points if usefull,
    Thanks,
    Kalyan.

  • What is reporting point in REM mfg ?

    Hi PP expertise,
    Can someone explain what is reporting point in routing/backflush ?
    how to know the routing use reporting point ?
    Thanks

    Dear,
    Reporting Point Backflush is used when working with Longer Lead Times.
    Reporting point backflush
    Controls whether you can carry out reporting point backfushes when backflushing in make-to-stock repetitive manufacturing.
    Use
    Using the reporting point backflush:
    You can withdraw the components close to the operation for which they are required which is very useful when working with longer lead times.
    You can calculate the number of incomplete products (work in process).
    You can post scrap quantities directly at the appropriate operation.
    You can carry out a reporting point backflush at every operation defined as a milestone in the routing. In the repetitive manufacturing profile, you can also decide whether you want to make the reporting point backflush mandatory or optional.
    Dependencies
    The reporting point backflush is carried out in the same way as the milestone confirmation.
    Steps to be follw:-
    1)You must assign a suitable repetitive manufacturing profile in the material master record to be able to backflush a material using either the mandatory or the optional reporting point backflush function.
    2)You must set the optional or the mandatory reporting point backflush in the repetitive manufacturing profile.
    3)This type of backflushing corresponds to the milestone confirmation in make-to-order production. Therefore, in the routing, you must select a control key which has indicator 1 (= milestone confirmation) in the confirmation field.
    4)You must enter the routing in the production version of the material. The system first looks for the routing entered in the detailed planning section. If no entry exists here, the system then uses the routing from the rate-based planning section.
    5)You must carry out a version-specific or a standard cost estimate.
    6.You are recommended to use the version-specific cost estimate which can be carried out in shorter intervals than the standard cost estimate.
    7In MFBF screen you can flag the "RP Backflush " check box which means reporting point backflush and enter the Reporting point that is the operation #.
    Hope clear to you.
    Regards,
    R.Brahmankar

  • Suggestions welcome...what all reports needed to monitor DB performance

    Hi All,
    Could you all please let me know what reports would you need to monitor a database. I am writing something that one could use to monitor database. not like statspack which would take snaps at regular intervals but a GUI where in you would click on a particular button a get the report at that instance. some reports like indexes that need rebuild. queries taking lot of time...users, their roles,undo stats, cache hits..
    So do let me know what all reports u can think of and i will try and put them together.. doing it for my dissertation work.. so please please help with your valuable inputs..
    regards,
    Kailas

    A good stuff is a program that shows when a event in v$system_event is out of range of normal condition operation(so you have to use some statistics functions, and store a continuos baseline), and what session is doing this injury.
