Structure - suppress zero rows

[Former Member]

Hi BW people,

I found very similar topics on this forum concerning suppressing zero rows in structures but not exaclty the same case nor an answer.

<u><b>Query</b></u>

I have a structure in the rows with several selections (S1, S2, S3) and beneath that structure a characteristic. To keep it simple: there is only one key figure in the columns.

<u><b>Aim</b></u>

I would like to have the <i>non-zero</i> key figure for all materials (M1, M2,...) for each selection in the structure.

So it should look like this:

S1   M1   50
S2   M2   100
S3   M3   90

Unfortunately I get this:

S1   M1   50
S1   M2
S1   M3
S2   M1
S2   M2   100
S2   M3
S3   M1  
S3   M2   20
S3   M3   70

So, even if the key figure for M2 and M3 (for selection S1) is zero, it is shown because these materials have a non-zero key figure elsewhere in the selection.

<u><b>Condition</b></u>

I tried about every possibility of 'conditions', but again the same problem: they are evaluated on the whole structure AND material, and not on every separate line of the report.

Anybody a solution? I would be grateful as I have tried quite a lot of work arounds.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Bart,

By creating a condition (By clicking the Button next to CELLS or from View menu you can open a CONDITIONS..  Create a New Condition by clicking context menu then double click on it.

1.  In Define Condition Parameters (Click New) on bottom you will find 3 entries.  Keyfigures, Operator and Values.

2.  Select the 0 value Keyfigure

3.  In Operator select Not Equal To and

4.  Under Values give 0 and click Transfer button then OK.

Now it will hide 0`s in the report.

Thanks,

Anjan
