Report writer is a tool for creating reports that meet specific business and reporting requirements.

Report Writer enables you to report on data from multiple applications. Using functions such as sets, variables, formulas, cells and key figures, you can create complex reports that meet specific reporting requirements.

When working with Report Writer, you can use certain functions that are not supported by Report Painter. These functions include:

Multidimensional column structures

User-defined definition of inactive row and column combinations

Enhanced functions for using cells in column formulas
