I am supposed to create a report using crystal and not reportwriter where I am showing the actual units and budget. I am linking glunits and fbdetail. the only problem is there could be multiple budgets defined for the same period and when I link these 2 tables I am getting multiple rows. If I specify a budget no. then if tthere was an actual and no budget it does not get picked up.

Has anybody tried to link these 2 tables. i am curious as to how the linking was achieved if anyone can share.
Thanks in advance,

If I am understanding what you are trying to accomplish...

* Summarize the FDBDETAIL units fields for each FY, Co, AU, Acct, Sub Acct combination.
* Use the query above as an inline view for another sql query

Do what Chris says, but add Budget Nbr to that summarization. You should end up with 1 record for a Year, Period, Company, AU, Acct, and Budget Nbr.

To pick up data that exists for one table and not the other is a bit tricky. You could use left and right joins, then append unique records to a temp table and report off of it. Or you can start with GLNAMES or GLCHARTDTL to get the main dimension you want as rows (AU or Account), then left join that table to GLUNITS and FBDETAIL.

I think you could do a union as well, but I have not used that method.

You can't do a left join because you could have actuals and no budget or budget and no actuals.  You have to query actuals with a group by, do the same on budget and then union so you have to use a command.  The one below supports multi currency so you just need GL_Amounts instead of CU_Amounts

I have added a new report to the LawsonGuru store (https://www.lawsonguru.com/store.aspx) which reports GL Actuals vs. Budgets.  Here's a sample.

John, if we were to buy this report, would we be able to modify to add additional columns or logic?

Thanks.

Certainly, in fact I expect most clients will want to tailor a purchased report to their own liking. See https://www.lawsonguru.com/store/storefaqs.aspx for more.

This particular report uses a huge SQL statement, specific to the native database.

Re: Report showing actuals and budget (e41bdc47-73e9-45f4-be07-737ce81138f3) <!-- Converted from text/plain format -->

I create them using Crystal XI R2, but they should work with Crystal 9 and 10 (whenever Crystal added the support for the SQL via "Add Command").

John, one more question, does this report work if you simply load your budget using an external interface and then run FB165 or you have to have Lawson's budget and planning module installed as well?

It works if you load via FB165 (it reads from FBDETAIL).

I have added a "new & improved" version of that report to the LawsonGuru.com store that reports actuals compared to 2 different budgets (i.e. if you are using both a forecast and an operating budget).  It also reports based on the chart of accounts levels, and has additional company / accounting unit rollup options.
