Defining report parameters for a Style 2 report

You must define parameters for each report. A parameter represents a range of accounts or accounting units and defines the scope of the report. Every report must have two sets of ranges defined: account number ranges and accounting unit ranges. If you define an account range for the row, as you would for a Style 1 report, then the report parameters you define must be for an accounting unit range. Use this procedure to define parameters for a report.

See Changing the focus of a report.

Procedure flow: defining report parameters

Access Report Writer (RW00.1).
On the Style 2 tab, click Accounts in the Parameters section.

Note: If you define ranges for a column on Format (RW20), then those ranges will override the parameter ranges defined on RW00.3. However, parameters are required for Style 2 reports even if you select specific accounts or accounting units when defining the columns.

See Company, account, and level overrides.
On Account Range (RW00.3), select a range of accounts, subaccounts, an account list, an account group, or a subaccount group. This subform also lets you select individual reporting options.
