Reverse sign for SAP Netweaver

There are four types of accounts included into SAP Netweaver:

  1. INC - Income
  2. LEQ - Liabilities & Equity
  3. AST - Assets
  4. EXP - Expense

The specifics of SAP Netweaver is that INC and LEQ types of accounts by default are displayed with the negative sign.

At the same time in CXO application, connected to SAP Netweaver, the users want to see the report values with the positive sign.

There are two ways how this can be solved in CXO

Using a cube calculation

A cube calculation can be created within CXO for Measures dimension, which will remove minus sign from the report values.

Here is how the cube calculaiton looks:

Please note, that using the cube calculation slows down the application performance

Modification of CXO configuration file

As of release 5.0 we can modify the CXO configuration file in such a way, that the minus sign will be removed automatically. You need to inform CXO support team if you want to proceed with this option and they will make the required changes.
