How to create variant for HIER reports

Hello,
I have to run program RKDBAT02(Background Processing for Drilldown Reports) from a FM that i created.
i have to run this program with a variant that i need to update with the values from my FM.
My problem is tha I am trying to use the regular variants FM as RS_VARIANT_VALUES_TECH_DATA to get the variants
fields that i have to load or fm RS_CREATE_VARIANT and in the parameter report name i put the HIER report name.
I keep getting an error that this is not a report. I can put the program hier report name which is a long string,
but the string name change dynamically between clients.
I need a way to load the variant of the hier report .

Yifat

fill in the values in the selection screen and then hit the save as button.
give it a name, enter. the variant is now save.

  • How to create variant for table/view ?

    Hi,
    When I go through SM30, I find a radio button called variant. I don't know the effect.
    Can anyone tell me how to create variant for table / view ?
    I want to know when we need to create variant for table/view.
    Best regards,
    Chris Gu

    hi ,
    Whenever you start a program in which selection screens are defined, the system displays a set of input fields for database-specific and program-specific selections. To select a certain set of data, you enter an appropriate range of values.
    For further information about selection screens, refer to Selection Screens in the ABAP User's Guide.
    If you often run the same program with the same set of selections (for example, to create a monthly statistical report), you can save the values in a selection set called a variant
    Procedure
    To create a new variant:
           1.      On the ABAP Editor initial screen, enter the name of the program for which you want to create a variant, select Variants, and choose Change.
           2.      On the variant maintenance initial screen, enter the name of the variant to be created.
    Note the naming convention for variants (see below).
           3.      Choose Create.
    If the program has more than one selection screen, a dialog box for screen assignment appears. The dialog box does not appear if the program only has one selection screen. The selection screen appears in this case.
           4.      If there is more than one selection screen, select the screens for which you want to create the variant
    5.      Choose Continue.
    The (first) selection screen for the report appears.
    If your program has more than one selection screen, use the scroll buttons in the left-hand corner of the application toolbar to navigate between them and to fill the fields with values. If you keep scrolling forwards, the Continue button appears on the last selection screen.
           6.      Enter the desired selection values, including multiple selection and dynamic selection.
           7.      Choose Continue.

    Hi Oscar ,
    You need to create optional date prompt variable  in BW which fills your requirement .
    Ex : If you require report should always run for 1st of the month to last of month .Then create Optional date variable in BW with interval .write customer exit ,
    if from date is left blank it should take 1st of the month and if todate is left blank it should take last of the month .
    when creating webi schedules , leave prompts as blank.

  • How to setup variants for webdynpro report in ABAP? Help!

    Hi Experts,
       I have a webdynpro for ABAP report with selection screen. 
       How to setup variants for webdynpro report in ABAP?
    Thanks
    Gopal

    Hi Gopal,
      There is no concept of Variant in Webdynpro ABAP. But in our project we have some tool to do that. Its not release to the client I think. In my scenarieo, We create the Screen variant and program name will be supplied to the tool that will generate the ouput in PDF and Selection screen in One view. But the same is not avilable .
    If you want the same concept in Webdynpro ABAP, you need to go for Dynamic programming only. This is the only option is avilable.
    Warm Regards,

  • How to create variant for selection screen which is in subscreen

    Hi,
    How to create variant for selection screen which is in subscreen in a module pool program?
    it is very urgent.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You can create the 'Parameter Transaction' so that whenever you run the particular transaction it will run with the initial value given when the Tcode was created and hence you can skip the initial screen of the module pool program.
    To create Parameter transaction from SE93 you have to choose the last option i.e Parameter Transaction.

  • Reg: How to create Variants for program SAPF120

    Hi SAP gurus,
    How to create variants for programm SAPF 120.
    with regards
    JK rao

    Hi,
    I suppose you intend to include 22 more Recurring Documents in the F.14 screen in an existing variant. Please check if these 22 are Recurring Docs in FBD3. And make sure that all 48 are appearing in the Document Number (Multiple Selection) tab of F.14. You can test (in a test system) by executing after inclusion and not necessarily saving as variant to make sure that BI session includes all 48 docs.

  • How to create Variant for braodcasting in BI 7.0

    Hi,
    As we create variants in BW 3.x using table TVARVC and
    t-code STVARV to enter variable to be updated as per requirement and a code for the same.
    And we will get variant in selection screen of report with updated values.
    Can some one tell me how can we do the same in BI 7.0?
    Please reply soon.
    Thanks.
    Santosh

    In the old SAP BW 3.5 version, we used a program that runs everyday after midnite that sets date variables in TVARVC.  The end user could specify which variable from TVARVC to fill the data field in the variant.  We have the user save the workbook and then distribute it via the Web Broadcaster.
    The workbooks are sent via email if things work OK.
    Are you saying we can do something similar using RSRVARIANT?  If we insert a row into RSRVARIANT, will the user be able to replace a field in their variant with the value?
    Here are some of our variables in TVARVC:
    Table:          TVARVC                                                   
    Displayed Fields:   9 of   9  Fixed Columns:                 4  List Width
                                                                                    MANDT NAME                           TYPE NUMB SIGN OPTI LOW                                                                               
    010   Z_PRIOR_FISCAL_PERIOD          P    0000           10/2005      
       010   Z_PRIOR_FISCAL_PERIOD          S    0000 I    EQ   10/2005      
       010   Z_PRIOR_WEEKLY_PERIOD          P    0000           43/2005      
       010   Z_PRIOR_WEEKLY_PERIOD          S    0000 I    EQ   43/2005                                                                               
    This would be for the October 2005 time frame.  In November the Z_PRIOR_FISCAL_PERIOD
    would get bumped up to 11/2005 which would have been November 2005.
    We have a batch procedure that updates the values in TVARVC table.  The user
    can choose with date value to run with.  In the old version everytime the variant
    is accessed, the current value of the variable Z_PRIOR_FISCAL_PERIOD would be fetched,
    so this is the way we could have monthly and weekly batch jobs run for precalculation
    and not get the same date range over and over again.
    How can be give the user an option to choose a variable like the above?
    Do we need to use Microsoft Excel VBA to call SAP BW to call custom code?
    Yes, we can update rsvariant table contents with a program.  But how will we "know"
    which date range the user wants unless they can choose which variable they want to use?
    Has anyone been able to do this?
    Thanks,
    Chris

  • Report Painter: Create variant for specific report created

    Hello,
    My knowledge in very weak in report painter.
    In the initial screen of a report created to analyse the budget by internal order whe have the year and the period of analysis.
    By default, for every user the year is 2010 and the period of analysis is from month 1 to month 1.
    My question, and I am sorry to ask such a simple question, is how can we change this initial screen?
    The aim is to have for every user, when connecting the report, by default the year 2011 and the period of analysis from month 1 to month 16?
    Thank you.
    Best Regards.
    R.

    Hi
    1. Go to GRR3 and identify the variable used in your report
    2. Go to GS12 / GS13 and check the variable definition
    May be some default value is specified there / or it is formula variable... Double click on the formula variable and you can check how it is defined...
    For the variable related to PERIOD - You need to specify a different variable for the From & To and specify the default value as 1 and 16

  • How to create variants for a sequence-f​ile?

    Hello,
    i have a testplan with custom teststeps. Each step has a new field with type "container" and name "myData",
    Inside of this container are numeric, string and bool parameter. The parameter inside this container are used to execute
    the teststep.
    I attached an example of this, if you open the right side of the sequence then the container "myData" can be seen.
    No i want to use the testplan for two different products, that means different parameters.
    Is the only thing that is included in teststand, the property-loader? If yes, can someone give me an example of how to
    use to property loader with my attached sequence?
    As far as i understand it, i have to create to different text files where i specify for each step-name the parameters.
    Does that mean when my testplan contains >1000 teststaps, that i have to create that manually by hand, or is there a function
    to export everything into a file (all parameters, skips, loop, ...)?
    I´m using TS 3.5 with LV 8.2
    Thanks for your help

    Hey OnlyOne,
    Sounds like the perfect opportunity to tell you about this cool new feature in TS 4.0.  You can select multiple steps and change the same property for all selected steps in one swoop.  Finally!!!  I added five of your custom steps and tested it just to make sure.  And it works.
    However, if you can't afford to upgrade or you like 3.5 better then the best way is to use the Import/Export Properties Tool.  Look in the Tools menu and you'll see it there.  Tools>>Import/Export Properties.  It's basically the same thing as the Property Loader step except you can go both directions instead of only being able to read values from a file.  You can write the file with it!! In fact what most developers do is use the tool to create the file.  Copy the file multiple times and change the values in each file.  Then use the Property Loader step to dynamically read the different files for their tests. 
    The Property Loader step is dynamic as the Import/Export Properties tool is only during development.
    As for an example for the Property Loader: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\TestStand 3.5\Examples\LoadingLimits  That contains a couple examples from Excel, Txt and other file formats.
    Hope that helps some,

  • Variant for multiple reports

    Hi Experts,
    Does anyone know if it's possible to create variants that serve for multiple reports?  If so, how?
    I have 10 very similar reports which use the same selection screen defined in an include for all of them.
    Regards,
    Simon

    Hi,
    It is not possible to create variant for multiple reports as it is said as
    you must create a separate variant for each report and then save it with the report where the values will be used.
    refer this line in the link

  • Creating Variant for VA05???

    Hi SAPians,
    Could you please give me the step by step process on how to create variant for VA05 for column layout.
    Thanks in advance
    MM.

    hello, friend.
    first, execute VA05.  customize your layout by clicking on the "current" icon.
    next, save your layout by going SETTINGS > DISPLAY VARIANTS > SAVE.  please note that unless your user parameters include the appropriate profile, the "save" option remains greyed out and unavailable.  ask your BASIS consultant to assign you parameter = SD_VARIANT_MAINTAIN with value "A".  then you can save your own variant.
    regards.
    p.s.
    i got this idea from someone else.  i think it was lakshmipathi.  whoever it was, thanks.

  • How to Save Multiple Variants for a Report at a time?

    Hi Experts,
    I have a report in one server and I have copied the same into another server.
    And now I also have to copy the variants of that report.
    There are totally 192 variants for the report. So, is there any easier way to copy all those variants for the new report that I have created, rather than re-creating the variants one-by-one manually.
    Note:There is no connection to both the servers. So I cannot transport them.
    Thanks in advance.

    Basis can do a export and import transport, still if don't have connection between boxes.
