CC: No Transaction Codes for Programs!

Hi experts, this is quite an alarming situation. I found that for a particular company, they have a lot of customized reports (and PROGRAM!) which do not have an underlying tcode tied to it. I'm sure this is not the best practice as the user simply go via SA38 to execute the program directly. The authorisation is currently controlled by the auth obj define in each program.
I'm not sure if anyone has this experience. W/o the tcode available for the program, is it feasible or efficient to check only via Tcode SA38 ? It seems very unlikely there is time to create a tcode per program at this moment. Is there any other ways? The company also does not have customised authorisation objects built in su24.

Hi Peter,
This is a very serious issue and has to be addressed to on a top priority.If your client is hit by SOX,it is sure to be qualified,inviting heavy penalties etc.The Auditors has to attest the adequacy of intenal controls u/s 404 of the Sarbox Act;as such they hardly overlook these type of issues-as this a classic case of weak internal control.
I know many companies do SOD_analysis frequently as an aftermath of being qualified under SOX.This is in spite of the best practices under vogue.Taking cue from this,you may think of remedying things.
At this stage it will be very difficult to introduce T/codes.So better consider introducing the compensatory controls-this brings the impact of the violations within the permissible limits.The Control Self Assesment is the best technique to do this.You get a lot of ideas from the shop floor.
Mutually exclusive authorizations to Group A and B sometimes can amount to be inflexible.If your change management system is not sound you stand to end in disaster.
As a long term strategy,you can toy with the idea of introducing "Management cockpit of controls"-here you start excercising the controls from the moment you add the programme to your library.It is rather the frequent changes to the functionalaties without making the corresponding amendments to the affected programmes that play havoc.With the inventory of large number of programmes and disperate locations,this will help you in a big way.
In a nut shell yours calls for a short term strategy to deflect the audit problems etc and a sound long term strategy to bring in the best practices in managing this area.

Ramesh.

How to create transaction code for maintenance view

hai friends,
i hope every thing goes good.
i have doubt, how to create transaction code for maintenance view. I created view for tranperant table and now i want to create transaction code for the view.
i tried and i donot know the screen number and program name and where can i give the view name.
if any one know please post in details.
thanks in advance.

Hi Elam,
You need to create a "Parameter Transaction".
What this means is that you will have a transaction (let's call it "ZMAINT") which calls "SM30" and passes in your table name.
Go to transaction SE93 and enter your new transaction code. Enter in the Tcode description and choose "Transaction with Parameters" (it shouldbe the last radio button).
Enter in the default transaction "SM30" and tick the "Skip Initial Screen" check box. Hit Enter.
Now scroll to the bottom of the screen and you will see a Table Control where you will need to enter in the values to the SM30 selection screen.
Because you hit ENTER, the program will have loaded in the Selection Screen parameters into it's memory. Hit the drop down for "Name of Screen Field" and select "VIEWNAME" and then enter in your Z Table in the "Value" column.
Now go to the next line and hit the drop down and select "UPDATE" in the "Name of Screen Field". Enter in a "X" in the value column.
Now save the transaction and there you have it.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pat.

Transaction code for report

Hi All,
I am new to SAP area. I have created ABAP program (Report and variant) which generate list of materials. User would like to run whenever they want and have little knowledge of SAP. So I would like to provide Transaction code for this report to user. Can anyone let me know how to create transaction code for report. Also suggest, if any other option available to provide the same to user.

Hi Yogesh,
Just as an option, you necessarily dont need to create a transaction so that the user can run the report. You can include the report in the menu for the user within his role to which he is assigned.
Hence on SAP easy access screen when he logs in, the user would be able to see the report all he needs to do is double click.
Just an option for you.
Regards,
Aditya
p.s. Transaction for role maintenance is PFCG .... refer to your basis consultant for more information

Is there any transaction code for uploding logo in ALV reports.

is there any transaction code for uploding logo in ALV reports.

hi,
call function 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE'
       exporting
            it_list_commentary = t_header.
            i_logo             = 'Z_LOGO'.
endform.
Upload Logo for REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
For those who wish to upload and use a picture in your ALV abap reports.
Steps for uploading Logo :-:
1. Goto the transaction OAER
2. Enter the class name as 'PICTURES'
3. Enter the class type as 'OT'
4. Enter the object key as the name of the logo you wish to give
5. Execute
6. Then in the new screen select Standard doc. types in bottom window
Click on the Screen icon
Now, it will ask for the file path where you have to upload the logo
7. Now you can use this logo in REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
or
Import Logo and Background Picture for Reporting
In this step, you can import a customer-specific logo and a background picture into the R/3 System. These will be displayed in the header area of reports in HR Funds and Position Management.
From the SPRO:
HR Funds and Position Management --> Dialog Control --> Customize Reporting Interface --> Import Logo and Background Picture for Reporting.
Activities
1. Enter the Name of your logo/background picture as an object key in the initial screen.
2. Make sure that the class name is PICTURES, and the class type is OT.
3. Choose Execute.
4. Double-click the document type Picture on the Create tab page. A dialog box will appear in which you can enter the path in which the logo/background picture can be found.
5. Enter the path and choose Open. The logo will be uploaded into the current R/3 System. If the logo/background picture is to be transported into other systems as well, choose Transport.
6. Return to the initial screen and repeat the procedure after having entered the Name of your background picture as an object key.
Please note that the logo/background picture can only be displayed in ALV-based reports with an HTML header. Manually programmed reports such as business distribution plans are not based on the ALV.
If you have selected several initial objects, ALV-based reports in HR Funds and Position Management will automatically use a hiearchical-sequential display. A logo is not displayed here either. Note also that the logo cannot be printed (see print preview in program).
Make sure that the logo does not exceed a height of 100 pixels because it would mean that the header of the report will be scrollable.

D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE                RW

Transaction Codes for Report Painter Reports

Hi,
Can any bodu assist on how can we create a link for the report painter report and the transaction code for the same.
Also is there somthing to be taken care while getting the same transported to another client.
Thanks & Regards,
Ankur Goel

Hi,
Thanks for response.
Actually I created the Transaction code and get the Report and Transaction code transported but when i executed the transaction code in the Receiver Client i gave run time ABAP error.
let me give example:
a) I created the Library, Report Group & Report in my Developement Client.
b) Using SE93 i assigned the program name of the Report to transaction code.
c) Got the Library, Report Group, Report & T.code transported to Quality Client.
d) Executed the transaction code in QAS which gave me error.
Reason identified:
a) Let say Program name created for the report is AAXGHGYGBL010 in my client 010.
b) Transaction code ZREPORT01 created using SE93 for program AAXGHGYGBL010.
c) Now got the Library, Report Group, Report & T.code transported to Quality Client 050.
d) In client 050 program AAXGHGYGBL010 doesnot exist as AAXGHGYGBL050 has been created for the transported Report.
Thanks & Regards,
