QUESTION POSED ON: 06 July 2005
Is it possible to run a report with two different reporting periods specified? For example, I would like to output an employee's education information as below:
- Must be currently active (reporting period "Today")
- Output pernr, name, DOB, age (reporting period "Today")
- Output education (reporting period "All")

I understand this is possible by creating two separate queries. I'm just wondering if there are any shortcuts?

EXPERT RESPONSE
If you are trying to do this in a query, I cannot come up with an effective way to do it. This is very easy to do in ABAP; however, and I recommend having a member of your development team write the report that is needed.

It is also possible to write the code to add it to an infoset, but it is going to display down instead of across the screen.
