Dear Report Painter gurus,

I am trying to reverse the +/- signs in my P/L statement, which I
created using Report Painter.  Could someone please help me out ?

Try using the Absolute value in your formula as follows:

Ex:  (X003 / ABS X002)) * 100, or whatever variables you need to use.

I find that this usually reverses the appropriate signs.

In the report, there is also formatting available that will reverse the
signs.
Do:  In Report Writer: Change report screen, (transaction GRR2),
                Formatting-->Row-->reverse signs.

However, this will reverse all signs in the statement.  You may not want
that.

Try both to see what happens.

Hope this helps.
