Easy Reporter - More than just a reporting solution

Experience seamless data integration and diverse export possibilities.

Learn More

When discussing Easy Reporter, the conversation naturally revolves around reporting needs. In most cases, this is aimed at addressing the immediate requirements of the Payroll Team, including Reconciliation, Payroll Audits, or General Company Reporting.

However, for many customers, there is also a need to integrate and distribute information to other areas, such as SAP Analytics Cloud (or other BI Solutions), create interface files for external transmission, or enable internal consumption of these reports via Employee Self Service or Managers Self Service.

Easy Reporter offers much more

Over the years, Easy Reporter has evolved into much more than just a reporting solution. Many of our customers now use it to integrate data into their own internal systems or even external solutions.

The advantage for our customers is that Easy Reporter provides access to the majority of the data they may need to export into external systems. This includes not only the complex tables within the SAP environment but also SuccessFactors Data, and the ability to import data from external files. Moreover, the HR or Payroll Team can build the reports themselves. Once they have the data in a report, setting up the required export file becomes a fairly simple process.

This blog aims to provide an overview of some of the available output options.

What are the output options?

When it comes to consuming the reports, the first and most common option for our customers is to run them directly. All our reports are built within SAP, and our customers can use the Easy Reporter interface directly from SAPGUI, SAP Business Client, or WebGui. Typically, these users are within the HR or Payroll Team itself, and they have access to the complete solution, including the creation of various interface options.

Secondly, many of our customers want to share reports with different teams within the company. For this purpose, we offer a Web Fiori solution for Manager Self Service or Employee Self Service, enabling managers or employees to access any reports they need.

The final area involves exporting the report data from Easy Reporter. Here, there are several diverse options available.

Easy Reporter – Import & Export options

  • Emailing the Report: Any report can be emailed to either an internal or external person within the company. The email can be sent with the report data as an attachment in any of the formats listed below.
  • Saving to a File: Any report can also be written to a local directory on the SAP server (or Internal Network if accessible from the SAP system) or to a local PC file. This can be useful if it needs to be imported into another system or consumed by another team.
  • oData API: The Easy Reporter reports can be called as a SAP Service. This allows calling reports and returning the data in oData format. This is typically the case in scenarios such as:
  • SAP Analytics Cloud: When data needs to be imported into SAP Analytics Cloud, the oData API can be used.
  • Excel or PowerBI: Similar to Excel or PowerBI, both of these can be pointed to the Easy Reporter API.
  • SAP Cloud Integration (CPI): Starting from our upcoming release (2023.R2), Easy Reporter will be able to connect to the CPI solution hosted on the Business Technology Platform (BTP). Any Easy Reporter report can create an external file, which can then be passed to an iFlow on the BTP platform for transmission.

File Formats

When sending a file, there are many formats available, including:
  • Excel XLSX
  • Tab Delimited
  • Comma Delimited
  • Interface (Header, Body, Footer)
  • XML
  • And many more

Summary

As seen from the information above, the Easy Reporter solution offers more than just reporting capabilities. It not only provides access to the majority of the HXM and SuccessFactors data sources but also offers multiple output formats for consumption by other solutions.

This is one of the advantages of Easy Reporter that makes it the most versatile solution for SAP HXM customers.
