Managing Reports
Introduction
One benefit of a Manufacturing Solution is a companys ability to analyze the data collected during
the production process. SAP Manufacturing Execution provides out of the box reports designed to
provide its users with this data. This data is presented through a variety of useful reports that are
easy-to-read and understand.
In SAP Manufacturing Execution, reports allow users to track activities completed and evaluate
progress made in production over a certain period of time. Reports are generated automatically
based on the real-time production data that is collected in the system.
This Guide provides information about all standard reports that are available when SAP
Manufacturing Execution is installed at a customer site. It gives the classification of reports,
describes the ways in which users can access reports, and provides guidelines how to configure the
system to show necessary reports. Also, the Guide describes the purpose of each report, the search
criteria fields, the report results, and provides an example of the Report window screen shot for more
understanding. And finally, the Reports Guide explains how to manage and use reports to track
performance and availability of the production process.
Report benefits:
Fast and easy accessibility to production data.
Thorough analysis of the real-time production data.
Key Features of Reports

Features of the reporting system include:
Drill-down capability. This feature allows users to drill down on relational data to uncover more
details. For example, when the user clicks an order number in the search results, another report
opens that contains details about the order.
Charting and tabling. When running a report, report processing combines the report layout
information with data from the data source, and renders the report in either HTML or Graphical
Device Interface (GDI) format. The user can switch between graphical and tabular views of
report results.
Report Format Overview

Report Window Layout
The following topic describes the common elements of the Report window. The Report window is
split into three sections.
The first section of any report is Header (see Figure 1). The Report header includes the following
attributes:
Managing Reports
A toolbar that contains the Help and Print icons.
The Report title.
The second section of a report contains Search criteria fields, the Search and Clear buttons, and the
check box to display the search results in a new window (see Figure 1).
The third and last section of a report is the Search results (see Figure 1). The search results are
displayed in either a tabular or graphical format.
Figure 1. Report Window
Report Window Elements

The following list contains elements that can appear in the Report window. Each of these window
elements is described in detail below.
Header
Search criteria fields. The search criteria fields can contain values of the following types:
Browse icon
Date/Time fields
Required fields
Optionally required fields
Optional fields
Buttons
Tabular and graphical views for report results
Navigation controls
Managing Reports
Header
The list of all toolbar buttons available along with their brief description is shown in the table below.
Button
Help
Description
Displays the help topic for the current report.
Note: The Report window provides an integrated
online help facility. This facility provides users with
online access to the complete SAP help and is
implemented as the Help link.
Print
Displays the Print dialog box and allows you to send

the report to your printer.
Search Criteria Fields

The search criteria fields enable users to input values to narrow a search for the report results. A
blank value in a search field means that all values for that field will be displayed in the results.
Note: To improve report performance, it is recommended that as many of the selection criteria fields
as possible be used. It is not recommended to perform wide-open report searches in the case where
all the selection criteria fields are blank.
In SAP Manufacturing Execution, some search criteria fields use a wildcard (*) to make the search
faster and easier. A wildcard is a character string that means: Find any character or set of
characters. Wildcards can be used either separately, or at the beginning or end, or wrapping a word.
For example: *, *ABC, ABC*, *ABC*.
Browse Icon
Browse means to look through or view data. The ability to browse on a field is represented by an
icon with a flashlight (see Figure 2).
Figure 2. Browse Icon
When the user clicks the browse icon next to a field, the system displays a window with the records
of the selected field that exist in the database (see Figure 3). The user can either double-click the
row with the value or click OK at the bottom of the browse window.
Managing Reports
Figure 3. Browse Window
However, the browse for the SFC field differs from that for all other fields (see Figure 4). When the
user clicks the browse icon next to the SFC field, the system displays the SFC Browse window. This
window includes three tabs: Main, Components, and Miscellaneous. Each of these tabs has fields to
enter search criteria to obtain a list of SFC(s). To get a detailed description of all tabs, fields and
buttons, see the SFC Browse Window topic in the online help.
Figure 4. SFC Browse Window
Date/Time Fields
Most reports have a date/time range that can be used to restrict the data to specific ranges of dates
and/or times. There is a combo box used to select commonly used date ranges (see Figure 5). For
more information, see the Reports Overview topic in the online help.
Managing Reports
Figure 5. Date/Time Fields
Required Fields
In SAP Manufacturing Execution all required fields are marked with the red asterisks ( ). If the field is
required this means the value for this field must be specified.
The Site field appears on all Report windows as the required and text-only field. The Site field
always contains the name of the site that the user has logged into SAP Manufacturing Execution.
Optionally Required Fields
A number of reports contain optionally required fields. Optionally required fields are fields marked
with a green triangle (see Figure 6). To perform the search at least one of the optionally required
fields must contain a value or a message will be displayed to the user.
Note: If possible, fill in more than one optionally required field in order to optimize report
performance.
Figure 6. Optionally Required Field
Optional Fields
An optional field means that a value for the field may be specified or not. If a value is not provided for
an optional field it does not prevent from performing the search. In some cases the default value can
be used.
Buttons
Button
Description
Performs the search based on the search criteria
specified by the user plus some default information
provided automatically by the activity.
Note: Do not click the Search button more than once.
Wait until the results from the first search request are
returned before clicking the Search button again.
Depending on the size of the data set being returned,
it may take from a few seconds to several minutes
Managing Reports
before the results are returned to the window.

Submitting multiple search requests may negatively
impact system performance.
Removes all information entered by the user,
redisplaying the default values.
Show Results In New Window
Selected: Displays the results table or chart in a

separate window.
Tabular and Graphical Views for Report Results

The report results, determined by the values in the search criteria fields, appear in the lower part of
the Report window. Most reports are displayed in the tabular view. Additionally, there are reports that
can be displayed in both graphical (bar or pie chart) view and tabular view. If both views are
available, you can switch between the views by using the Graphical View and Tabular View buttons
located at the top-right corner of the results section.
The tabular view provides:
Predefined column names.
Drill down capability through links within the report.
Navigation Controls
Users can navigate through the results table or graphic by using standard navigation controls. The
Report window provides a horizontal scroll bar and a vertical scroll bar to allow navigation between
pages, as well as drill-down capability. Both tabular and graphical views allow direct interaction with
the results, such as scrolling, drilling down, and printing.
Managing Reports
Accessibility of Reports
Accessibility of reports means that it is easy and fast to access and view reports. In SAP
Manufacturing Execution, reports ensure good usability and high productivity for users. This topic

Column
Description
Server name
Indicates the name of the OPC server that is being used.
Device name
Indicates the device that is defined in the OPC server.
Tag name
Indicates the tag, the unique address that is defined in the

device.
Formula
Indicates the formula according to which the collected

information is calculated. The user specifies the formula. The
system launches a java script window for entering the formula
scripts. Formula scripts for data collection use interpreted
JavaScript as the scripting language. Specifically, you can use
the findSingleParameter method with arguments as
defined below:
findSingleParameter("parameter_name", "this" |
"subassy", "item_name", "item_revision", "operation_name",
"operation_revision", "resource_name", "last").
For example, in the POD, the operator collects data at OP1
via the DC plug-in (DC500). Using the following formula for
PFORM, when the operator at OP2 enters data for P2 and P3,
and clicks Save, the DC plug-in calculates the sum of these
two values as well as the saved value entered for P1 at OP1.
a = P2+ P3;
b = findSingleParameter("P1", "this", "ITEM1", "*", "OP1", "A",
"RES1", "last");
c =a+b;
exit(c).

part of the BOM report window. The BOM report is displayed in a tree view. By default the report is
displayed based on the DISPLAY_DEFAULT system rule which is set to True and means that the
tree is displayed expanded to the lowest level. See Figure 78.
Note: If the DISPLAY_DEFAULT system rule is set to False, the system will display all folders of the
BOM report as collapsed.

The BOM report consists of the following folders:
BOM
BOM Custom Data
Operation
Sequence
Component Details
Alternates
BOM Component Custom Data
The folders displayed under the Operation folder reflect the sequence of all BOM components that
were assembled at the specific operation. The folders displayed under the Sequence folder describe
the component details, the alternates for the BOM component, and, the BOM component custom
data (if such exists).
If the BOM name equals the Item name system rule was set to True and a router was defined for
the item, then the operations are displayed based upon the router step sequence and then the
components are displayed in assembly sequence order.
If the BOM name equals the Item name system rule was set to True but a router is not defined for
the item, the BOM components are first grouped by operation and then the component sequence
within the operations determines the order of the operations displayed.
169
Genealogy Reports
If a router is found, and the assembly operation is not on the router, the operation is placed at the
bottom of the report and is sorted by component sequence. If an asterisk (*) was entered in the BOM
Component Revision field, the BOM report displays all data that pertains to the current revision of
the component. If the BOM Component Revision field was left blank, the BOM report displays all
data that pertains to the current revision of the component since that is what blank represents. If a
certain revision was specified for the BOM Component Revision field, the BOM report displays all
data that pertains to the specific revision of the component that was entered.

Description
Rework is the process of making a nonconformed SFC into
a usable one; a status assigned to an SFC to indicate that
the SFC has been removed from normal work and placed in
a rework step or a rework router, usually for repair or
diagnosis. Labor on work that is in rework is accumulated as
rework time, and can be charged to a different charge code
than regular work.
SFCs that are nonconformed (by NC codes) to a new router
are considered to be in rework until they leave that router.
