ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE / PAYABLE REPORTING CHARACTERISTICS

[austin_steyn]

Hi,

We have added customized fields to our BP (Customers and Vendors). Now I would like to summarize customer and vendor open items by the same fields.

In the past I've used functions in the PS module where I used an enhancement (SMOD - KAP10001) and extended certain structures: CI_PRPS, CI_RPSCO_X
etc. to summarise PS values by new Project fields...

But now in Finance I would like to do something similar for AR / AP reports. Typically I would use transactions: FGI1 - Create Report and FGI4 - Create form.

However I would like to add new characteristics (the new BP fields) so that I can summarise customer / vendor lines using characteristics drag and drop in reports.

GR22 - Create characertics is typically used to create new items but I'm not sure if this transaction would be used as these are NEW fields, so I'm expecting I would have to append structures etc.

Help appreciated.
