The following SAP custom styles are not availabe after the installation, but you can create them in the Styles group on the Home tab of Microsoft Excel. They affect the formatting as described in the following table:
| Style Name | Description |
|---|---|
| SAPMemberCellX | Format for member cells on columns (overriding SAPMemberCell). |
| SAPMemberTotalCellX | Format for member total cells on columns (overriding SAPMemberTotalCell). |
| SAPHierarchyCellX | Format for hierarchical member cells on columns, even levels (overriding SAPHierarchyCell). |
| SAPHierarchyOddCellX | Format for hierarchical member cells on columns, odd level (overriding SAPHierarchyOddCell). |
| SAPHierarchyCell0-9 | Format for hierarchical member cells on specific level (overriding SAPHierarchyCell and SAPHierarchyOddCell). |
| SAPHierarchyCell0-9X | Format for hierarchical member cells on specific level on columns (overriding SAPHierarchyCellX and SAPHierarchyOddCellX). |
Example
The column headings are defined as SAPMemberCell. If you want a different format for these cells than for member cells in rows, you can duplicate the SAPMemberCell, name it SAPMemberCellX and change the format definition. If you save this as style set, the member cells in column headings are displayed in the new defined format. The member cells in rows continue to be displayed as defined in the SAPMemberCell style.
Example
The standard styles for hierarchies are SAPHierarchyCell and SAPHierarchyCellOdd. With these styles, the hierarchy levels have alternating styles. If you want to have three different styles for the first three hierarchy levels of an hierarchy, create the styles SAPHierarchyCell0, SAPHierarchyCell1 and SAPHierarchyCell2. The system ignores the standard styles and applies the styles for specific styles. If an hierarchy have more than three levels, the levels after level 2 are displayed with the SAPHierarchyCell2 style.
