This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Report Summarization Options page. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

To set up report summarization groups for reporting, use the Report Summarization Options component (PC_RPO_GRP).
The Report Summarization process automatically summarizes these fields for all rows in the Project Transaction table:
BUSINESS_UNIT
PROJECT_ID
ACTIVITY_ID
ANALYSIS_TYPE
CURRENCY_CD
Use this page to create additional group by and filter criteria for the Report Summarization process. In this example of the Report Summarization Options page, ACCOUNT and AFFILIATE are included in the group by criteria, but only for transaction rows in the Project Transaction table that have an ACCOUNT value of 6005423 and AFFILIATE of 94210.

The date option and reporting interval values determine the accounting date and transaction date that the Report Summarization process sends to the Project Transaction Reporting table. Available options are: Accounting Date: The Report Summarization process summarizes rows with an accounting date that falls within the specified range. The From Date and Through Date fields appear for you to enter the accounting date range. The default value for the From Date and Through Date fields is the current date. You can override the default value. If you select a date option of Accounting Date, the process assigns a transaction date of 01/01/1900 as a default value in the Project Transaction Reporting table. All: The process evaluates rows with any date that meet the run control criteria. If you select a date option of All, the process assigns an accounting date and transaction date of 01/01/1900 as a default value in the Project Transaction Reporting table. Transaction Date: The process summarizes rows with a transaction date that falls within the specified range. The From Date and Through Date fields appear for you to enter the transaction date range. The default value for the From Date and Through Date fields is the current date. You can override the default value. If you select a date option of Transaction Date, the process assigns an accounting date of 01/01/1900 as a default value in the Project Transaction Reporting table. Note: You must summarize by the transaction date to run these delivered reports: Project Financial Report (PCPL1000) Project Transaction Report (PCPL2000) |

Report Summarization Example
This is an example of a process with a date option of Accounting Date and a reporting interval of Quarterly.
Three rows on the Project Transaction table are combined into one row on the Project Transaction Reporting table. Each row has the dates that are shown in the following table. The process uses the accounting date to select rows; the reporting interval is quarterly. Assume that the second quarter is from April 1, 2005, through June 30, 2005.
Row Number |
Trans Date |
Accounting Date |
Transaction Amount |
---|---|---|---|
