Use

Drilldown reports are the result of evaluations of data collected in Funds Management. Only the totals records are evaluated here. You carry out these evaluations using drilldown reporting, a dialog-oriented information system. Drilldown reporting is capable of evaluating the data according to all the characteristics contained in the data description.

You can create your own drilldown reports if you have questions that cannot be answered by the standard drilldown reports delivered by SAP.

Caution Caution

If you create your own reports, the report name must begin with a letter.

End of the caution.

For a detailed description of drilldown reporting see Implementation of Drilldown Reporting .

Prerequisites

The current drilldown reports and forms must have been imported into the working client. For more information, read Customizing for the Info System .

Features

Since you can only create reports with a form in Funds Management, creating a drilldown report involves two main steps:

  • Creating forms

In a form you define the content and formal structure which is displayed in the report in the detail list. Here you determine the characteristics and key figures (such as overall budget, annual budget, and commitment/actual data) which you want to display in the report.

You create your own forms in the implementation guide for Funds Management Government The type of form used depends on the desired report layout or the desired navigation options. You can find an overview of the different types of forms under Report with Forms .

  • Creating reports

You can define default values when creating a report. Besides this you can define the navigation options, that is for which features a drilldown list can be displayed.

You create your own reports in Customizing for Funds Management Government
