IN REPORTING
1. Reports and General navigation in reporting
BACKGROUND
When calling a report you can search for more than one value
at a time, or search for data that falls within a range of
selectable criteria.
Eg; you may wish to view all goods issues for two different raw
materials, or all goods receipts between two dates
Ranges
If only the first field is populated the system will treat that as
the only value to match
If only the second field is populated the system treats that as
the maximum value and will report on all data up to and
including that value.
Multiple selections
When you can enter more than one selection, or more than
one range then the “multiple selection” button can be used.
Ranges
Ranges
You may use any or all selection tabs to restrict the data
selection.
For example: you may wish to view all data between two dates
excluding one day. You would use the tab to enter
the dates required
BACKGROUND
What is a selection variant?
A selection variant is a tool that allows you to recall frequently
used data directly into a report’s selection screen. This saves
the retyping of repetitive entries.
For example: If you use the same report everyday with
constant data, e.g. same production line, plant number and
MRP controller, you can create a variant that contains this
constant data. This allows you to select the variant as opposed
to entering data repeatedly.
Creating and saving a variant
Before we can save a variant we need to enter the data into the
fields that we wish to store for repeated use.
Note: When saving a variant it is important to ensure that the
variant name and/or descriptions are meaningful and relevant
to its purpose, as all users can view a saved variant. The
description should also contain your plant number
SCENARIO
You use the transaction MF51 every day for your role as a
production manager. Rather than enter the same information
each time you use the transaction you need to set up a variant
to enter the information for you.
INSTRUCTIONS
Follow the Menu Path: Logistics → Production → Repetitive
manufacturing → Planning → MF51--Production list
Double click MF51 – Production list.
1. Update the following required and optional fields:
8. Click Back
Now repeat the transaction, as follows, using the variant
Access transaction MF51
BACKGROUND
When you first display a report, it displays the standard set of
columns. However, you may wish to remove columns you are
not interested in, and add columns containing information
that you are interested in viewing.
SCENARIO
In the Order Information report, you want to remove the
column Reservation Item, as you are not interested in this
information. However, you want to see the order number on
the report, so you need to add this column.

Filtering a list
Filtering a list allows you to hide values that you do not wish
to view.
Some reports offer this as part of selection also, but not all
fields in all reports are selectable, so this is where filtering
would be used.
To filter a column you must first select the column you wish to
filter, and then click

1.6 Exporting Data to a Excel Spread sheet

manipulation in list reports, it can be useful to export data
into a different file format.
SCENARIO

Above display is the self explanatory. All positive quantity in
the Rec/reqd qty column indicate that will increase the stock
and all the negative quantity indicate that that will consume
the stock.
3.2 MRP List – MD05
This report will give you the status of material as on date when
MRP run took place. This is useful when it is required to refer
the result of the last MRP run. It will NOT give the current
status of the material.
This list will look similar to the MD04 list, but the results are
as on at the time of MRP run. NOT the current one.
This report is similar to MD05, I,e will display the last MRP
run result, but collectively.

Note:- In the above report, any new exceptional messages are
reported with red color icon.
This report will provide the net result of availability check for
various combination of input.
