YEAR COMPARISON

Hi
I seached in all forum but i did not find relevent solution for my requirment
My requirement is like this
i'm doing SAP BW/HR full update
I got one requirement such a way that ,there want to compare 2009 data with 2010 new data
eg) let us presume there 3 dependents in 2009 ,in 2010 new 1 dependent was added there want view who is new added dependent for that pernr.in year 2010
YEAR   |       PERNR       |          DEPENDENTNAME
*01/12/09     |    1234      |              ROBOT,JIM,SAM
01/01/10     |      1234      |              TOM
YEAR COMPARISON: ROBOT,JIM,SAM,TOM
THERE WANT TO COMPARE LIKE THIS YEAR WISE and want TO know clearly how many dependents are there in 2009 and how many newly added in 2010
Bascially i created yeary comparison range variable but its not giving correct data

Two ideas:
First idea: have a separate column (C) that has =YEAR(A). Then you can do the SUMIF using that column as the key.
Second idea: use SUMIFS (with the "s" on the end). You can then use two conditions "if the date is greater than or equal to January 1, 2009" and "if the date is less than or equal to December 31, 2009".

BEx Query Designer 2 years comparison by month

Hi expert,
I'm drafting a report which want to comparison 2 years cost variance. I want to have 2 column inofmraiton, Cost & Variance % (which is (Current Period - Previous Period) * 100/ Previous Period) .
I create the follow fields & defined a value range of 'CalYear/Month' in Filter of Characteristic Restrictions with variable offset value -12 which can input From mm.yyyy & To mm.yyyy.
1. Characteristic of 'Cost'
2. 'Cost -12' which is Cost with restriction of 'CalYear/Month' in 'From mm.yyyy' -12 to 'To mm.yyyy' -12 (HIDE FIELD)
3. 'Variance %' which use function [ 'Cost' % 'Cost -12']
After I Inputted the value of From Value 04.2011 & To Value 06.2011, it show 6 column of the cost in Apr 2010, May 2010, Jun 2010, Apr 2011, May 2011, Jun 2011, It show 0 under the 'Variance %' of Apr 2010, May 2010 & Jun 2010 is correct, but it can't calculate the any value of Variance % under Apr 2011, May 2011 & Jun 2011.
Please advice
Thanks & Regards

Year Over Year Comparison for Multiple Years

I have a business request where the client is asking for a year over year percentage comparison for multiple years
So for example
          Applications
2015     5
2014     10
2013     22
So in year 2015 we can see that applications is currently down (5-50/10 - [New-Old/Old] by -50% compared to year prior
In year 2014 we are down -55%
Ultimately I wanted to display the following
          Applications
2015     -50%
2014     -55%
2013
I have an idea of how to do this for a single year, where a presentation variable is fed in then I can just do this year minus previous year.
I was wondering, how can I do this calculation or presentation in OBIEE? Can this be done within answers? Or does something need to be done in the RPD?

As long as your model is correctly done with a time hierarchy you can just use the time series function AGO to get the value of previous year.
So in the formula you can calculating your delta in % comparing the current year amount and the previous one.
You can do it in the analysis directly, but if you will often need to access "previous year measures" would be a good idea to add it in the RPD so you don't need to write the formula every single time.

How to create YTD reports in Query Designer (year over year comparison)

Dear BW Reporting gurus,
I am trying to create a dynamic YTD report.
The cube contains data from 2010, 2011, 2012.
Let's say today's date is Feb 12, 2012. When the user runs the report, the report should contain:
A column of cumulative sales quantity from Jan 1, 2010 - Feb 12, 2010.
A second column of cumulative sales quantity from Jan 1, 2011 - Feb 12, 2011.
A third column of cumulative sales quantity from Jan 1, 2010 - Feb 12, 2012.
I am trying to solve this by creating a Restricted Key Figure:
For 2010:
SALES QUANTITY restricted by:
Current Calendar year offset by -2.
0CALMONTH2 with less than or equal to (SAP Exit Variable) Current Calendar Month.
But, I am confused as to how to restrict the day so it dynamically restricts less than or equal to the current day.
Please help.

Hi Sourabh
As far as my understanding is concerned one data is fixed, that is first date of any year.
0DAT on 0CALDAY can give you current calender day. Now you can offset that with - 365
Only problem I see is if the year is leap year. Then it should be - 366
To check the leap year thing you need to go for a customer exit variable.
Customer Exit would be easy one

Monthlwise Income Statement with Previous Year Comparison

Hi
Good day to all.
The requirement is to create a Monthwise Income Statement for the Current Year with the Previous Year Comparative figures (and Average for Previous Year and Current Year thrown in).
We have designed this report using Report Painter using the Library 8A2 based on GLPCT Table.
We have been able to get the Monthwise figures for the current year.
Could somebody elaborate on how to achieve the following:
1. How to get the Previous Year Figures in the same report.
2. How to get the Average for the Current Period depending upon the Periods upto/for which the user chooses to run the Report? For example, the user must be enabled to run report for a range of Periods (for example Period 5 to Period 8) and the Report should average the totals using a denominator of 4).
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
Regards
Harinath

I am Thankful to SDN,
but i have solved my problem on my own.
I ill be back if i have any problem in future.

Monthly Sales Report - Prior year comparison

I am created a monthly sales report for Sales in Crystal 2011. I have a parameter prompting for a date e.g. 02/01/2014 to 02/28/2014. I would like to have the sales amounts beside this column for 2013.
I found this formula but I can only get my results from 2014.Anyone have an idea how I can do this ?
Thanks,
debbie
\\Current Period

({ICITEM.ITEMNO}) >= ({?FromItem}) AND
({ICITEM.ITEMNO}) <= ({?ToItem}) and
{OEAUDH.TRANSTYPE} <> 3

Hi Debbie,
1) Modify the Record Selection Formula to;
{OEAUDH.TRANSDATE} IN [cdate(year({?FromDate})-1, Month({?FromDate}), day({?FromDate})) TO cdate(year({?ToDate})-1, Month({?ToDate}), day({?ToDate}))]
OR
{OEAUDH.TRANSDATE} IN [{?FromDate} TO {?ToDate}]
This should give you current and previous year's data for the period chosen by the user.
2) Assuming you have a group on the Date field set to print for each year, simply create a running total from the Field Explorer.
Name it Current Year.
Choose 'Sales Amount' as the field to Summarize.
Choose 'Sum' as the Summary Operation.
Under 'Evaluate', select 'use a formula' and use this code:
date_field IN
[cdate(year({?FromDate}), Month({?FromDate}), day({?FromDate})) TO cdate(year({?ToDate}), Month({?ToDate}), day({?ToDate}))]
Set it to Reset at each Group For Year
3) Create another Running Total and call it 'Previous Year'.
Everything remains the same from Step 2 except the evaluate formula:
date_field IN
[cdate(year({?FromDate})-1, Month({?FromDate}), day({?FromDate})) TO cdate(year({?ToDate})-1, Month({?ToDate}), day({?ToDate}))]
Hope this helps.

Dynamic comparison column in Bex report

Hi Gurus
I have the following request, could any of you kindly help me out?
Content example in Cube:
GL Act| Fiscyear| Fiscper3| Amount
10001 |2004     |12       |100
Report: Cross-year comparison determined by period
Specifying fiscyear and period range is enabled as user-input, e.g. choose year 2003 to 2005 and period 01 to 03
The following layout is our target:
header: period 01-03
GL Act| Y2003| Var2003-2004| Y2004| Var2004-2005| Y2005
10001 | 100 | 200         | 300 | -100        | 200
10002 | 300 | 500         | 800 | 200         |1000
I think the point is to achieve the "variance" column which is dynamically determined by fiscyear where user inputs, since restricted key figure cannot achieve the "dynamic" solution.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Eric,
My approach is somewhat not flexibible but it may suit your needs.
Will try to describe it in more details.
Lets assume that this periods contain full information: a year and a period within a year and that there are 12 periods in the year. A user enters a a range of periods P1 P2 (lets say of 2005) and wants to compare some KF for the given time period with that for 2004, 2003 and calculate difference between periods.
Solution:
Create two for P1 and P2. All vars are user entry ones. If P1 is always the first period in the year then P1 might be determined in the user exit.
Create a structure in rows.
New selection. Name it as Y2003. Put here your KF and Fiscal year/period. Restrict it with P1 24, P2 24.
New selection. Name it as Y2004. Put here your KF and Fiscal year/period. Restrict it with P1 12, P2 12.
New selection. Name it as Y2005. Put here your KF and Fiscal year/period. Restrict it with P1, P2.
New formula for Var2003-2004. Place into formula Y2004 - Y2003.
New formula for Var2004-2005. Place into formula Y2005 - Y2005.
Regardless of selections names this query will show values for given periods of 3 years: entered, year before entered and entered -2.
Best regards,
Eugene

Variable offset for date - a year ago

I have this sales report with the following columns:
1. Current Day Sales
2. Month to Date Sales (this Year)
3. Month to Date Sales (last Year)
I'm using a range variable for 0CALDAY for column 2 (Month to Date Sales this year). i'm having problem with column 3. how is it possible such that the date is automatically assigned to last year's values? using offset would mean -365, however, this may not work during leap years?
please help

Hi,
Refer the 'Examples for using Variables' in 'Bex Query designer' of sap help..
Examples for Offset Variables
You want to use a query to carry out a comparison of two years.
Year Comparison
You want to compare the costs of a year of your choice with the costs of the previous year.
       1.      In the Query Designer, create a new structure and add a new Selection for each year that you require.
       2.      Only use one key figure (for example revenue) in this example query. Add this key figure to the filter or add it to the selection.
       3.      Use a characteristic value variable for the characteristic Calendar Year (0CALYEAR):
Select the characteristic value variables for Calendar Year and, from the context menu (right mouse click), choose New Variables. The Variables Wizard appears.
If you always want to reference to the current year automatically, use the SAP Exit variable 0CALYEAR (or as appropriate for another time characteristic).
       4.      Move the defined characteristic value variable into the selection.
       5.      Select the characteristic value variable and from the context menu (right mouse click), choose Restrict.
                            a.      Select the characteristic value variable and from the context menu, choose Enter Variable Offsets.
                            b.      Enter 1 as the offset and choose OK.
       6.      Choose OK.
       7.      Enter a description.
Example: Use the name of the key figure, for example, revenue, for the name and use a text variable for the name of the calendar year. See Using Text Variables.
When creating a new text variable, enter Replacement Path as the processing type, and choose calendar year 0CALYEAR as the characteristic with display as key.
       8.      Create a second selection with the same characteristic value variable and do not set an offset here.
Also use a text variable in the description in this case.
       9.      Move the required characteristic into the rows.
   10.      Save the query.
After execution, the query should appear as follows:
Variable screen entry: 2002 (or no entry when using the SAP Exit Variable).
Year Comparison
A characteristic
Revenue 2001
Revenue 2002
Value 1
100.000
90.000
Value 2
200.000
180.000
Value 3
300.000
400.000
Comparison with Cumulative Previous Year Period
For example: You want to compare the periods 1-8 of a particular year with the same periods for the previous year.
       1.      Create a new structure in the Query Designer and add a new Selection.
       2.      Move a key figure, for example, Revenue, into the selection.
       3.      Use a characteristic value variable for the characteristic Fiscal Year/Period (0FISCPER):
Select the characteristic value variables for Fiscal Year/Period and from the context menu, choose New Variable. The Variables Wizard appears.
Use the SAP Exit variable Current Fiscal Year/Period (0FPER) if you always want to reference to the current year. If you set the variable as entry-ready in the Variable Editor, after executing the query, the variable screen then appears with which you can change the default values were necessary.
       4.      Move the characteristic value variable, such as OFPER, into the selection.
       5.      Select the characteristic value variable and from the context menu (right mouse click), choose Restrict.
       6.      Under Selection, choose Value Area and choose the tab page Variables.
       7.      Add the characteristic value variable, for example 0FPER, to the selection once again for the second value of the interval.
       8.      Select the characteristic value variable and from the context menu, choose Enter Variable Offsets.
                            a.      As an offset, enter -3 as the from value and 0 as the to value. Choose OK.
                            b.      Choose OK.
       9.      Enter a description, such as Revenue for current year.
   10.      Choose OK.
   11.      Select the selection and from the context menu, choose Copy and then Paste.
   12.      Now select the second selection and from the context menu, choose Edit.
   13.      Select the characteristic value variable and from the context menu (right mouse click), choose Restrict.
   14.      Select the characteristic value variable again and from the context menu (the right hand button), choose Enter Variable Offsets.
                            a.      As an offset, enter -15 as the from value and -12 as the to value. Choose OK.
                            b.      Choose OK.
   15.      Enter a description, for example Revenue for previous year.
Also use a text variable in the description in this case.
   16.      Choose OK.
   17.      Move the required characteristic into the rows.
   18.      Save the query.
After execution, the query should appear as follows:
Variable screen entry: 01. 2002 to 08. 2002
Comparison with Cumulative Previous Year Period
A characteristic
Revenue 01. 08. 2001
Revenue 01. 08. 2002
Value 1
100.000
90.000
Value 2
200.000
180.000
Value 3
300.000
400.000
Two text variables replaced with characteristic values were used for the descriptions here. One is filled with the from-value for the column with an offset of 0 and a length of 3, the other filled with the to-value with an offset of 0 and a length of 7. You can find additional information under Example for Variable Replacement.
Comparison of Cumulated Values for Two Years
You may want to compare the cumulated values up to the current period of the current year with those of the previous year.
For this example, use the variable 0FPER (current fiscal year period) and the variable 0P_FPER (your chosen fiscal year period). You use these two variables to set the interval limits.
       1.      In the Query Designer, create a structure with two selections:
¡        1. selection: Cumulative Amount for current year
¡        2. selection: Cumulative amount for previous year
       2.      With the first selection (cumulative amount for current year) , move the time characteristic 0FISCPER into the selection and select it.
       3.      Choose Restrict from the context menu (right mouse click).
       4.      Choose Value Area between as the selection and go to the tab page Variables.
       5.      Double click to choose the variable 0P_FPER as the from value and variable 0FPER as the to value. The result is an interval from the chosen period to the current period.
       6.      Define the second selection (cumulative amount for previous year) and proceed as for the first selection.
¡        Add the variable 0P_FPER as the from value and variable 0FPER as the to value here.
¡        Set an offset of 12 for both the from and the to values:
Select the interval and from the context menu (right click), choose Enter Variable Offsets. Enter 12 for each.
The result is an interval that has been moved 12 periods ahead.
       7.      Add the key figures and additional characteristics for the query.
After executing the query, you get a variable screen for the variable 0P_FPER. You need to enter the start period in the current fiscal year.
You can also suppress this entry by deactivating the indicator Entry-ready in the Variable Editor for the variable 0P_FPER and entering a default value (for example, 001.2001 for 2001). You only have to change this value once per year.
You have now defined a query that compares the cumulative values for two years.
The variables with SAP Exit delivered by SAP have the following behaviors:
Variable 0FPER (current fiscal year period): Displays the values of the current fiscal year period.
Variable 0P_FPER (any fiscal year period): Displays the values of any fiscal year period. You can set the fiscal year period in the variable screen when executing the query in any way you require.
Variable 0FYTCFP (fiscal year up to current fiscal year period): Displays the values of the first period up to the current period of the current fiscal year.
Variable 0FYTLFP (fiscal year up to previous fiscal year period): Displays the values of the first period up to the previous period (current period 1).
You need to use the variables 0FPER and 0P_FPER in the above example for the comparison of cumulative values for two years. When using the variables 0FYTCFP and 0FYTLFP, only values for one month are displayed for year transitions with an offset of 12.

How we create Variable for Previous year for COPA reports

Hi Guruss,
I am making a COPA report for Current year comparison with previous year from KE31. For 1st column I have created the Variable for current year (which works perfectly) now in 2nd column i need the actual data pertaining to previous. So can any one please guide me how to create the variable for previous year.
Thanks

Variance Formula: Cost of Service between 2 years

Good day everyone,
I am using BOXI r2 sp 4.
The following variance formula will ONLY work if the client selects the time frame of 1 year. For example 2008-01 to 2008-12
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{Enter Billing Year Month Start:"} - <Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{Enter Billing Year Month End:"}
PROBLEM: the client must select 2 years For example 2007-01 to 2008-12
But none of my formulas work.
=<Cost of Service>Where{<[Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month>;-365}}}
or
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month>;-365)=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}
or
=<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}-<Cost of Service>Where{<Billing Year Month>=UserResponse{"Enter Billing Year Month End:"}}Where{RelativeDate{<Billing Year Month.;-365}}
Someone please put me out of my misery.

Hi Gentlemen,
Thank you for all of your patience, guidance, and expertise trying to create this formula on the report level.
Could either one of you explain the significance of creating these types of formulas at the semantic level vs. the report level? I have been working on the following formulas and reports to varying degrees of success. Once finalized, these templates may be utilized as Opendoc reports between 2 universes.
After a great deal of research, I am inclined to think that these formulas need to be created at the semantic level rather the report level. What is the best way to argue this case to my design team?
REPORT SPECS:
I. FORMULAS:
These reports will have formulas built in for variance analysis. These variants would compare the values versus different time period or constraints (budgets, forecast, etc.):
Vs. Prior Year, Quarter, or Month
Vs. Budget
Vs. Forecast
Vs. Sequential time period/OPEN (This one essentially means the user can pick the time period to compare)
Vs. Productivity / Attributions (more detail needed)
$ Variance
% Variance
Rate = Current Rate - Previous Rate * Current Volume (Cost/Unit)
Volume = Current Volume - Previous Volume * Previous Rate
II. REPORTS:
Report Structure u2013A: Twelve month summary trend report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any twelve (12) periods. Reporting periods will be monthly, with the maximum capacity for twelve (12) months.
Report Structure u2013 B: Two period variance report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any two (2) periods and provide variances for each of the product/service details.
Reporting periods will be month vs. month, quarter vs. quarter, YTD vs. YTD or year vs. year. Month vs. month and quarter vs. quarter can be year-over-year comparisons (1Q08 vs. 1Q09) or sequential period comparisons (4Q08 vs. 1Q09).
Report Structureu2013C: Two year, four quarters and total year report
This report is intended to summarize the product data for any two (2) years by quarter and total year.
Reporting periods will be monthly, with the maximum capacity for twelve (12) months.
All of these reports will generate tabs for the total cost, total volumes and average rates per product for the selected periods.
REPORT BUILDER RESEARCH:
In addition to all of your great help, I have found many formulas that would appear to be similarly useful for my requirements, yet my design team has indicated otherwise. For example, I found the following code samples within this and the design forums:
Compare Prompted Period to Previous
DESIGNER LEVEL: create new Filter object
@Select(Sales Dates\Sale Year) = @Prompt
>('Select a Year','Sales Dates\SaleYear',mono,comstrained)OR@Select(SalesDates\Sale Year)+1 = Prompt('Select a Year','N','Sales Dates\Sale Year',mono,comstrained)
This will return the Prompted year as well as the previous year.
UNIVERSE FORMULAS:
count CYTD (Current Year to date)
count PYTD (Previous Year to date)
count CMCY (Current Month Current Year)
count CMPY (Current Month Previous Year)
count CYTD
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,) and data_month<=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,)THEN sales_figures END
count PYTD
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,)-1 and data_month<=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,) THEN sales_figures END
count CMCY
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,) and data_month=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,) THEN sales_figures END
count CMPY
>CASE WHEN data_year=@Prompt('Enter Year','N',,,)-1 and data_month=@Prompt('Enter Month','N',,,)THEN sales_figures END
Hereu2019s a sample problem that my design team encountered:
Using a derived table; one of my designers attempted to create the following object, $ Var (A-B) based upon UserResponse for any time frame which he said would not work. Can someone identify the problem here?
SELECT DISTINCT
(T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH) as BILLING_YEAR_MONTH,
(select T_FA_DATA.COST_OF_SERVICE from T_FA_DATA where T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH=@variable('Enter Billing Year Month End:'))-( select T_FA_DATA.COST_OF_SERVICE from T_FA_DATA where T_FA_DATA.BILLING_YEAR_MONTH=@variable('Enter Billing Year Month Start:')) as SEQ_VAR
FROM
T_FA_DATA
Can someone provide me with a realistic and CRITICAL assessment of this request? I know itu2019s complex but I would greatly appreciate it. In the end, we will create over a dozen reports which, I think also indicates the need for objects at the universe level.
Thanks!

I am trying to generate some Trial Balance report based on Group Chart of Accounts, but couldn't find any that works.
Example,
company code 1000 is assigned to CoA = INT and Group CoA =CONS.
When I generate Balances report based on CONS, it said " company code 1000 is incompatible with CONS".
Hence, would like to get advse how you guys generate balances report for Group chart of account using standard report. Or what other method available?
Thanks.

Dear Ruksana,
This is a standard report, I do not expect many errors. Meanwhile, please let me know what is the error message number you are getting.
The selection criteria would be:
Chart of Accounts : Enter your Group COA
Company Codes: Enter your company codes
Financial Statement Version : Enter the FSV
Reporting Year : Usually current fiscal year
Reporting Periods : 1 to 16
Comparison Year : Usually Previous fiscal year
Comparison Periods : 1 to 16
Keep other parameters as usual.
Hopefully, this should give the results.
Regards,
Ravi

Hey prasadboxir3,
I solved the same issue for Quarters earlier and my DB is SQL Server, Hope it will helps you a lot.
The solution is to add a condition to your query filter. Conditions have the yellow funnel Icon and are listed under the class in the Data Tab.
Adding a Class Condition Filter in done in the Universe Designer. Defining a condition object is described in the Universe Designer Guide, Chapter 5.
While in designer, right click a class and choose Condition. Name your condition and provide the Where logic to get the last four quarters of data. Since the logic can be complex, here's two MS SQL Server examples of quarter based conditions:
Name: Case Begin Date This Quarter:
WHERE: Code:
@Select(CaseProgram\Case Begin Date) BETWEEN DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq,0,getdate()), 0) AND DATEADD(ms, -2, DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, -1, GETDATE()), 0))
Name: Case Begin Date Last Quarter:
Where: Code:
@Select(CaseProgram\Case Begin Date) BETWEEN DATEADD(qq, -1, DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, 0, GETDATE()), 0)) AND DATEADD(ms, -2, DATEADD(qq, DATEDIFF(qq, 0, GETDATE()), 0))
Conditions based on the current date/time provide the point of reference for your date calculations. Use the GetDate function along with the Between function. If your date field includes the time, don't forget to include the time (23:59:59) on the second date. This is done by subtracting the 2 milliseconds.
Once the conditions are in the universe, drag the condition into the query filters area of the Edit Query screen. The advantage of using conditions is that your report can now be scheduled and does not require a user prompt.
Just do it for Month/Year object for your req.
Let me know if you have any concerns.
Gracias...!!

Problem with variable offset for 0CALMONTH

Hello Community,
I have a problem with using variables offset for time characteristic 0CALMONTH
Let's say my current query looks like this:
...................01.2006..........02.2006..........03.2006   (0CALMONTH)
Sales ..............100..................125................200   (Keyfigure)
What I want do now is to add a previous year comparison. So that it should look this way:
...................01.2006..........02.2006..........03.2006   (0CALMONTH)
Sales ..............100..................125................200   (selected months)
LY_Sales...........50..................100................100   (selected months - 12)
(LY_Sales should show figures of 01.2005, 02.2005 and 03.2006 in this example)
I used new selection for LY_Sales with variable offset for 0CALMONTH -12 but that didn't work. Figures in second line are zero. The desired figures would show up (if I expand the selected time intervall wide enough) in 01.2005, 02.2005 and 03.2005 but that's of course not what I want.
Please help if you can!

Ulrich

Hi,
We can get an an other way by using CELL editor caoncept.
First create teh query like this:
...................01.2006..........02.2006........12.2006.....01.2005...02.20005...12.2005 Sales ..............100................125..............200.............50...........100.........100
Sales ..............100................125..............200.............50...........100.........100
Then hide the 2005 years' kf:
...................01.2006..........02.2006........12.2006
Sales ..............100................125..............200
Sales ..............100................125..............200
Though the call editor concept overwrite the second rows(selection) content with hidden columns of second row(selection) one by one .i.e first cell of 2nd row will be overwritten by 13 th cell of second column.similarly second cell of 2nd row will be overwritten by 14 th cell of second column........
First row(selection) : Cal year Charactertic with restriction 2006.
second row(selection) : Cal year Charactertic with restriction 2005.

CASH FLOW per PERIOD

Hi Gurus/Experts,
really need your help since i'm stuck in creating Report Painter for Cash Flow.
Below is the explanation of my case:
My requirement is to make report for Cash Flow periodically (or per month).
Already created Report Painter in FSI5 and Form in FSI1, and it's working. But, it's only giving the correct amount if only i generated Cash Flow Report on February, March, April and so on.
When i tried to generate Cash Flow for January, the amount isn't correct.
My speculation is because the different fiscal year that effect the increment value
i.e
increase in AR (Feb) = AR balance in February 2015 - AR balance in January 2015 >>> CORRECT AMOUNT
increase in AR (Jan) = AR balance in January 2015 - AR balance in December 2014 >>> INCORRECT AMOUNT
Currently im using three columns and Period as variable definitions, such as: 1PF, 1PF-1, 1PF-2
So, my question is:
1. Could i create cash flow per period? Or we are only able to create CASH FLOW PER FISCAL YEAR as standard report in SAP (0SAPRATIO-04)?
2. If i could create cash flow per period, where did i miss?
Already searching all threads, but i couldn't find the same problem.
Need your advice, Gurus..
Please let me know if there's any queries.
Best Regards,
Melia

Hi Melia
For your calculation, you can cross check your logic with actual values form table and see why it is not matching in case of INCORRECT amount.
Cash Flow is genuinely generated per Fiscal year and that will show the comparison of Reporting year (For Ex Current Year) with comparison year (For Ex Last Year).
As a correct solution, you can give selection parameter as below;
Reporting Year
Reporting Pd From
Reporting Pd To
Comparison Year
Comparison Pd From
Comparison Pd To.
That is the way I have created CFS. Let me know if you need more info.
