Associate Print Parameters with Program Variant

Is there any standard way to associate a particular set of print parameters with a program variant?

i think it is possible ? try to make use of

Selection Variables
    The following three types of selection variables are currently
    supported:
    o   Table variables from TVARVC
        You should use these variables if you want to store static
        information. TVARVC variables are proposed by default.
    o   Dynamic date calculations:
        To use these variables, the corresponding selection field must have
        type 'D' (date). If the system has to convert from type T to type D
        when you select the selection variables, the VARIABLE NAME field is
        no longer ready for input. Instead, you can only set values using
        the input help.
        The system currently supports the following dynamic date
        calculations:
        Today's date
         From beginning of the month to today
         Today's date +/- x days
         First quarter ????
         Second quarter ????
         Third quarter ????
         Fourth quarter ????
         Today's date - xxx, today's date + yyy
         Previous month
     o   User-specific variables
         Prerequisite: The selection field must have been defined in the
         program using the MEMORY ID pid addition. User-specific values,
         which can be created either from the selection screen or from the
         user maintenance transaction, are placed in the corresponding
         selection fields when the user runs the program.
     The SELECTION OPTIONS button is only supported for date variables that
     fill select-options fields with single values.

but thing is u have to maintain para/selection options for ur report.

Problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP

Hi!
there is problem Exporting / Importing print forms with program RSTXSCRP.
when I transfer print form from one SAP system to other, logo image and some text is missing... what could be the reason?
Maybe there is other way to transfer print forms between SAP systems without using program RSTXSCRP?
Will reward,
Mindaugas

Hi,
when you transfer print forms from one sap system to another, logos are not transfered automatically. these are actually .bmp files which need to be existing in every client. then only when you run your print program logo can be seen in your print output. hence logos need to be created explicitly in every client where you want to run your print program.
thanks,

Newbie question: Send data to printer from ABAP program

Hello, I am a newbie.
I do not use SAPScript nor SmartForms.
But I need to send a printer command stream from my ABAP to printer.
Is it possible?
How can this be possible? Please give me some guideline.
I will reward you points. Promise.
Thanks

hi,
u can send ur program details to printer using submit to sap-spool statement.
SUBMIT TO SAP-SPOOL
Basic form
SUBMIT rep ... TO SAP-SPOOL.
Extras:
1.... DESTINATION dest         ... COPIES cop
        ... LIST NAME name
        ... LIST DATASET dsn
        ... COVER TEXT text
        ... LIST AUTHORITY auth
        ... IMMEDIATELY flag
        ... KEEP IN SPOOL flag
        ... NEW LIST IDENTIFICATION flag
        ... DATASET EXPIRATION days
        ... LINE-COUNT lin
        ... LINE-SIZE col
        ... LAYOUT layout
        ... SAP COVER PAGE mode
        ... COVER PAGE flag
        ... RECEIVER rec
        ... DEPARTMENT dep
        ... ARCHIVE MODE armode
        ... ARCHIVE PARAMETERS arparams
        ... WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
2. ... SPOOL PARAMETERS params
         ... ARCHIVE PARAMETERS arparams
         ... WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
3. ... Further parameters (for passing variants)
        are described in the documentation for SUBMIT
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Missing print parameters with SUBMIT.
Effect
Calls the report rep with list output to the SAP spool database.
Additions
... DESTINATION dest(output device)
... COPIES cop(number of copies)
... LIST NAME name(name of list)
... LIST DATASET dsn(name of spool dataset)
... COVER TEXT text(title of spool request)
... LIST AUTHORITY auth(authorization for display)
... IMMEDIATELY flag(print immediately ?)
... KEEP IN SPOOL flag(keep list after print ?)
... NEW LIST IDENTIFICATION flag(new spool request ?)
... DATASET EXPIRATION days(number of days list
retained)
... LINE-COUNT lin ( lin lines per page)
... LINE-SIZE col(col columns per line)
... LAYOUT layout(print format)
... SAP COVER PAGE mode(SAP cover sheet ?)
... COVER PAGE flag(selection cover sheet ?)
... RECEIVER rec(SAP user name of
recipient)
... DEPARTMENT dep(name of department)
... ARCHIVE MODE armode(archiving mode)
... ARCHIVE PARAMETERS arparams(structure with archiving
parameters)
... WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO(skip print control screen)
With the parameters IMMEDIATELY, KEEP IN SPOOL, NEW LIST IDENTIFICATION and COVER TEXT, flag must be a literal or character field with the length 1. If flag is blank, the parameter is switched off, but any other character switches the parameter on. You can also omit any of the sub-options of PRINT ON. mode with SAP COVER PAGE can accept the values ' ', 'X' and 'D'. These values have the following meaning:
' ' : Do not output cover sheet
'X' : Output cover sheet
'D' : Cover sheet output according to printer setting
armode with ARCHIVE MODE can accept the values '1', '2' and '3'. These values have the following meaning:
'1' : Print only
'2' : Archive only
'3' : Print and archive
arparams with ARCHIVE PARAMETERS must have the same structure as ARC_PARAMS. This parameter should only be processed with the function module GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS.
Effect
Output is to the SAP spool database with the specified parameters. If you omit one of the parameters, the system uses a default value. Before output to the spool, you normally see a screen where you can enter and/or modify the spool parameters. However, you can suppress this screen with the following statement:
... TO SAP-SPOOL WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO
You could use this option if all the spool parameters have already been set!
Note
When specifying the LINE-SIZE, you should not give any value > 132 because most printers cannot print wider lists.
Addition 2
... SPOOL PARAMETERS params(structure with print
parameters)
... ARCHIVE PARAMETERS arparams(Structure with archive
parameters)
... WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO(skip print parameters
screen)
Effect
Output is to the SAP spool database with the specified parameters. The print parameters are passed by the field string params which must have the structure of PRI_PARAMS. The field string can be filled and modified with the function module GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS. The specification arparams with ARCHIVE PARAMETERS must have the structure of ARC_PARAMS. This parameter should only be processed with the function module GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS. Before output to the spool, you normally see a screen where you can enter and/or modify the spool parameters. However, you can suppress this screen with the following statement:
... WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO

RSPC Variant does not exist - Could not find or load print parameters

We are on BI 7.0 (support pack SAPKW70017). We recently freshed test system from production.   After the refresh, we have problems opening all the process chains.
1. When I go to RSPC to open a process chain, I get many messages like this:
Variant &0000000067180 does not exist (there are different variant numbers)
Message no. DB612
Diagnosis
You selected variant &0000000067180 for program RSPROCESS.
This variant does not exist.
2. When I go to SM21 to check the system log, it displays many entries like below:
EJ F Could not find or load print parameters for step 1, job BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER/09134500
Documentation for system log message EJ F :
An error occurred during loading of the print parameters for a
background job step.
The print parameter record may have been deleted even though there was
a still a step that needed that data. This is an error as the
reorganization of the print parameters should prevent this from
happening.
To fix the problem, edit the step and save it, copy the job, or
schedule a new job. The print parameters will be regenerated in all
these cases.
3. I applied the OSS note 1169659 - Correction: Process variants not entered by BDLS.   The Basis rerun BDLS. But it did not fix the problem.
Would appreciate if someone could provide any help.
Thank you.

Hi Rebecca.
1) Please verify if exist process types called 'unknown job'. If exist: delete process types called 'unknown job' in your process chain. To do that please remove the chain from scheduling (menu bar > process chain > remove from schedule), afterwards switch the detail view on (menu bar > view) > right mouse click on the process type "unknown job" > displaying scheduled jobs > delete that job. After deletion of the 'unknown jobs' activate and schedule your process chain again.
2) After the removal of the 'unknown jobs' please check if the error messages with the missing variants pop up when calling your process chain disappears. If not, please implement and execute the attached report Z_FIND_JOBS_WITHOUT_VARIANT which deletes the jobs without variants.
I have already attached report as Report Z_FIND_JOBS_WITHOUT_VARIANT, you can download and create the report accordingly.

Creation of new Print Program & Variant for new Correspondence Type created

Dear Friends,
I have created 2 new Correspondence Types in SAP as SAP61 (Vendor Debit Note) & SAP62 (Vendor Credit Note) by copying SAP09 (Internal Document) properties like itu2019s Name of the print program - RFKORD30 & Name of variant - SAP09.
We are facing problem when we execute print program in F.64 for SAP09 it is coming same like SAP61 or SAP62. Actual script & print values of SAP09 are replaced by SAP61 or SAP62.
Please suggest us how we can differentiate both SAP09 & SAP61/62. Because we use these correspondences for different purposes like SAP09 gives the information for the Line items in the Document whereas SAP61/62 gives the information of vendor line item weather it is debit or credit entry.
Your kind co-operation in this matter is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Naveen Kumar.P

"Assigned the from to the company code - progam in V_001F_B"
Check 'Form ID' field in this IMG transaction against the program and form that you have created.
I am assuming there are 2 lines with same entries but different form IDs.
Or there are 2 lines with the same entries but different CoCodes (seem to remember that the CoCode is not taken into account as a key in certain programs - not logical i know but remembered a previous issue I had many moons ago - could be to do with the blank entry for CoCode field if there is one being picked up by the program before the entry that has your CoCode).
Now check the variant attached and Form ID in step 'Created new program variants in SA38'
Ensure the correct program and variant are attached in step OB78.
My assumption is Form ID is the key.
Hope this helps

Hi,
You cannot user the variant of 'Program 1' to call the 'Program 2'.
When you write the statement
SUBMIT RSIRCCON VIA SELECTION-SCREEN USING SELECTION-SET 'VARIANT1' AND RETURN.
it means that you are trying to submit the program RSIRCCON with the selection screen variant 'VARIANT1'. SAP expect this variant to be of program RSIRCCON not your calling 'Z' program. Since program RSIRCCON does not have any selection-screen, you can not create a variant and thus you cannot submit it with selection-set variant.
Please refer to the documentation for command 'SUBMIT' for more information.

Submit a program with two variants

Hi all,
There is one program which needs to run everyday with two different variants
( For this i need to have two jobs ).
Now, i need to write a new program which submits the above program with two variants. How do i do it?
Thanks
Abhijith H

You don't need two jobs, you can have 1 job with two steps, each step would call the progam with the different variant.
If you want to write a program which submits the program twice with two different variants, you can use the SUBMIT statement. Here VARIANT1 is the name of a variant.
SUBMIT ZREPORT01
USING SELECTION-SET 'VARIANT1'
AND RETURN.

Rich Heilman

Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

I see the printer, in blue when I click on the hardware tab. Actually there are 2 things listed that have to do with the printer.
The first one is called:
HP Photosmart Prem C410 series (DOT4PRIN.... and under the Type it is listed as IEEE1284.4...
The next is listed as:
HP Phototsmart Prem C410 series and under the Type heading it says Printers.
I don't know which one to pick. So when I choose the name highlighted in blue, what do I do to change the name?

Launch a program with different variant in one time

Hi,
User have to launch all day x times the same transaction but selecting an other saved variant a each time.
Is there a program or transaction which can be used to launch a lot of program - variant in one time ?
Thanks a lot
Regards

You can use a ECATT testscript to automatise it.
It can launch different variants each time and how many times you want.
Follow the documentation <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/d4/80023c59698908e10000000a11402f/frameset.htm">link</a>

Problems with the print parameters of REUSE_ALV_GRID/LIST_DISPLAY

Hello,
I would like to put the printing parameter IS_PRINT of the REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY. I can fill the structure but it doesn't work.
I've try the following cases:
- get the default print parameters, change this, set the print parameter (GET / SET_PRINT_PARAMETERS)
- set the structure print_cntrl of the parameter is_print
Additional I've test the programm BCALV_TEST_LIST_PRINT2. I can fill the selection parameter for pages, for the printer, etc. - when I debug, the structure is_print is filled, but it hasn't any effect.
I need this function to change the field armod to put the list into the archive.
Just, I haven't an idea. Perhaps has anyone this problem too.
Best regards
tkaess

Hi,
from the docu of parameter IS_PRINT in the fm's docu (REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY):
Prerequisite: Before you use these parameters, you must call the function module UNSET_PRINTPARAMETER. This initializes the required parameters. Value range Default

Printing differences with LR4+ between Windows 8 and iMac

Hi. I have using my iMac running the latest version of OS-X with LR printing currently to an Epson XP-600 with pretty good results, that is, the print matches the screen with few exceptions.
I recently installed my second allowable copy of LR4 to a new HP laptop running Windows 8 and the prints, using the same photos, are way off both in darkness and in color shift. The Printer interfaces look different but many of the options are the same. I currently let the printer control the prints (with either computer) but tried separate profiles as well. No real change. Here is the important part... The only other program I have on the new Laptop that can print photos is Microsoft PowerPoint and the photos printed with PowerPoint are identical to the photos printed in LR on the iMac! So... somehow the Windows LR is changing the parameters.
I have compared settings between the two computers (only one opened at a time) over and over and ran through a set of ink cartridges trying to match either LR/iMac or Windows PowerPoint to the LR Windows photos to no avail. Am I missing something obvious? Why don't the LRs print the same with the same settings regardless of the operating system? Both are 64 bit computers. Any thoughts would be appreciated... thanks! Andy

Thank you for replying, Rikk. However I respectfully disagree with you. I wasn't comparing the printed photo to the laptop monitor but to the other computer's printed photo (and to the iMac's monitor by extension). Big difference. I deliberately let the printer manage color because with the iMac, the print matched the monitor without profile control. In Windows, I also let the printer manage color so LR, let alone the monitor, should have no influence on color, much like the PowerPoint print as you mentioned. The printer, if printer settings are the same, should produce the same print in OS-X or Windows 8. The PowerPoint print matching the LR print on the Mac proves this to be true IMHO.
To put it another way, I'm not trying to match the Windows print to the Laptop monitor, which is not only uncalibrated but somewhat irrelevant. The two monitors look nothing alike with regard to color. Neither monitor should actually influence the print when compared to the other print using identical printer settings with LR set to printer control.
Please do not think I'm trying to be contentious here, I'm not, but to put it a third way, If I print the photo from another program (iPhoto) on the iMac, it looks identical to the print in LR on the iMac. Because the printer is in control. On the Windows computer, printing in and out of LR, with printer settings the same, do not. That's what I'm trying to find out.
Finally with respect to your last sentence, that's my whole point. I believed I had turned off color awareness in LR on both computers. I don't need it. Apparently, I didn't turn it off on the Windows computer and I would love to know why it didn't go off?
Thanks, Andy
PS You deserve an explanation as to why I use the printer control and no profiles. The answer is somewhat serendipitous: With this particular printer (and I've had many), when the printer is set to manage the color, the prints, for whatever reason, very closely match the iMac monitor (which is calibrated), even moreso than with printer color OFF and ICC profiles employed. I've tried them all. I only use one kind of paper. If I call up a photo of my grandchildren, the print matches the iMac display close enough for my needs. What I see is what I print. Why change it?
