Exploding Rows
 Occurs when you have a Row Value that consists of
more values
 Example: Cost Center Codes 40000 - 43000 could be
split out to individual codes or collapsed
 Default is to NOT explode
 To change this default: Edit --> Rows --> Explode

Report Painter: Creating New Libraries
 Library defines what objects (attributes of objects) can
be included in it’s reports
 Defines Selected:

Characteristics (attributes that are key fields)

Key Figures (types of “measures” or values -- typically numeric)

Pre-Defined Columns


Library
A library contains:
- Characteristics
Criteria for selecting
data records
(cost element, version...)
Report group C
Report group B
Report group A
- Key figures
Value fields in selected
data records
- Predefined columns
Combinations of
characteristics and
key figures

Report Painter: Creating New Libraries
 Report Painter --> Report Writer --> Library --> Change

Copy and then Modify (Add and Delete attributes)
 Create: Creates a custom library for your reports
 Create a Library for your Reports

Report Painter --> Report Writer --> Library --> Create


Report Painter: Models
 Model = Template
 Sets of Rows OR Columns You May Want to Re-use
 Models are Static: If you Change a Model you Must
Change All Reports That Use the Model OR Have
Reports with Different Versions of the Model
 Report Painter --> Model --> Create

Use for column Definition: Within Report Definition: Edit --> Columns
--> Get Column Model

Edit Rows -- > Get Row Model (for Rows)

Using Variables in Report Painter
 Variable: Defined Parameter that Users fill in at Run
Time

Year, Starting Period and Ending Period, etc. for the Data
 Types of Variables:

Value: single Value such as Controlling Area, Company Code, Work
Center, Plant, etc.

Formula: Rolling Periods or Previous June with This June

Set: Set up groups that corresponds to the way the data are
structured. For example, Groups in CO can be used as a Set

Adding Blocks and Sections
 Block: Columns that are grouped together

Example: Sales report in $ by Product vs Quantity by Product

Row Structure is identical for all column blocks

Menu Path: Go To --> New Column Block
 Section: Rows that are grouped together

Example: Planned and Actual Costs by Cost Center and by Product
Group

Column Structure is identical for all row blocks


Standard Layouts
 Standard layouts used in many companies so all
reports have same look and feel
 Basically a Corporate Template for reports
 Define a Standard in layouts

Menu Path: Report Writer --> Standard layout --> Create

Attach a layout to a report by displaying it -- this is used for the report
you are working on


Additional Considerations
 Variation: Allows you to run the same report at detail
or summary level determined at run time

Define the Variation function in Report Definition under General Data
Selection

At Run time push variation button and select the desired variation
level

Execute the Report Group
 Multiple Selection: Run the same report but separate
every time by variable, I.e. Cost Center

Leveraging Existing Reports
 Run a Report in SAP

Extras --> Display Definition

Extras --> Technical Info (drill down on Program name)

Shows you ABAP code
 Copy from these reports and then modify

When you create the report use Options --> Copy From
