SAP Note 14121 - Using parallel reports

Symptom:

Question: What is to be considered when using parallel reports?
Key word: Report Writer

Cause and prerequisites

Parallel reports do not support the entire functionality.

Solution

The report page in a parallel report is divided into several windows. One report is allocated to each window. This leads to the following restrictions due to technical reasons:

1. If you scroll in the report display, this only applies to the current window (cursor position).

2. The export onto the PC is only possible in the text format. For this reason, numbers cannot directly be exported into spreadsheet cells (MS Excel, Lotus 123, ...).

3. Selection variation is not supported.

Parallel reports can often be avoided by deacitvating the unwanted column blocks for certain row blocks. This way, the report can be set up from different blocks.
