Create variants through ABAP

Hi,
Can an SAP ABAP program be built to create variants for other ABAP programs?
This is required as we have a regular interface inbound job which will
provide information on the values of the fields that need to be input
into the program. This program will then be scheduled to run periodically
using this new variant.
Thanks!

Hello Gordon,
When you execute your abap program on the first selection screen you have an option from the menu bar to save that layout as a variant .
That is: from GOTO->VARIANTS ->SAVE AS VARIANTS..
Hope it helps you.
Thanks Mansi

Create Attachment in workflow through ABAP Class in ECC 5.0

Hi,
Wr are using SAP ECC 5.0 and i am trying to create attachment through ABAP class.
Here in ECC 5.0, macro INCLUDE cntn01_swc is not available.
I am getting an error in declaration of SOFM object, because again SWC0_OBJECT is not available.
I've tried creating the parameter as type SOFM and of type table of SOFM but it also not working.
Can anybody help me how i can create SOFM instance in ABAP class in ECC 5.0?
Regards,
Smit

Hi
I am not very much sure about ECC 5.0 environment. Firstly are you looking to create a SOFM object inside any class or program or Function module , If yes then you need to include a include INCLUDE CNTN01_SWC (No arrow brackets) if this include is not available then use INCLUDE<CNTN01> then declare a variable of type SWC0_OBJECT if you are using first include or declare of type SWC_OBJECT.
Once you include any of the includes then by making use of SWC macros you can create a object
SWC0_CREATE_OBJECT <VARAIBLE> <BOR NAME> <BORKEY> for first include.
SWC_CREATE_OBJECT <VARAIBLE> <BOR NAME> <BORKEY> for second include.

Hi Hemalatha,
Just call this Progream RSEOUT00 from your Zprogram and pass the basic parameters like IDOC number, Basic type,Partner number etc.
You can check the parameters by executing the Program RSEOUT00.
This Program will change the status of your IDOC 30 to 03.
Thanks.

Unable to created users through UME on portal with AS ABAP as its data sorc

Hi,
Unable to created users through UME on portal with AS ABAP as its data source.
I have assigned SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION to the user SAPJSF but this only helps in editing the already existing users but not in creating new users on portal.
I have checked that that the role SAP_BC_JSF_COMMUNICATION is properly generated and has * in all authorizations. I have even assigned SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW to SAPJSF and another ID.
DO we need to make any config changes to make the database writable from portal. Please advise.
Thanks,

Hi,
If your system is a AS ABAP + +JAVA System,, you have to do the following
1. Login to Client 001 using SAP GUI
2. Create a user id
3. Login to portal and you will be able to see the user.
4.Assign him the portal rights
If you want the portal to use seperate Database for USers, there is a setting in Visual admin, that you can change for the same, but i dont remember that

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.

BAPI for creating variant table

Hi,
Cu61 and Cu60 are two transactions in SAP (comes under Variant Configuration) to create a variant table and fill its contents respectively.
Now, I am trying to create a transaction in SAP such that on the screen it takes the name of the variant table to be created and an excel file as input from the user and thus create a variant table and fill its contents in the background. Now, ofcourse I have to do this through ABAP coding. I know how to upload the excel file into the internal table but I am not able to figure out that how should i create the variant table and transfer the contents of that internal table to the variant table? That is, how should i transfer the contents to the variant table?
I have been able to find out the tables involved in the process viz, CUVTAB, CUVTAB_FLD, CUVTAB_VALC.
Does there exist any BAPI for doing the same?
Please Help.

Hi Reema,
Thanks for replying but this is not what I am looking for. I do not want to create a cluster table rather I want to create a variant table (it is a table used in variant configuration to store the combinations of a material whose characteristics can take varying values at the time of configuration). A table that we create through the transaction Cu61 and populate its contents through the transaction Cu60.
However, I still tried your suggestion but it did not result in what I want.
My problem still exists.

Short Dump While selecting Variant for ABAP query

Hi,
ABAP query is going to short dump (CONNE_IMPORT_WRONG_COMP_LENG) while selecting a Variant. If i create and use variant then i am able to see Output of Variant.But not able to use Earlier created variants .
I think some mismatch between variant values and selection screen fields.Can anyone tell me how to rectify this ?
I am not able to debug the code as dump is coming in a System program(RSDBSPVD).Can anyone tell me which database table i can use to get values of the Variant.
Thanks in Advance.

Problem in creating IR through BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_create BAPI

Hi,
Some problem in creating IR through the BAPI BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_create. I am able to see the IR number after executing the BAPI but unable to see the IR number in the table. The IR number is not getting updated in the database table even though we are doing the commit work after executing the BAPI. Could anyone help me out with this error.
Regards,
Ram

First of all I am assuming that you did not get any error in the BAPI return structure (even though you see document number populated).
Secondly, I guess you tested the BAPI with SE37 and did not get any error (functionally there are a number of BAPIs available to post an invoice and it is important to figure out the correct BAPI - e.g. PO, non-PO invoice, invoice as a GL entry only, etc.).
If that is not true (there is some error in posting), since during the BAPI call the next document number is obtained as a first step, you will see the document number but subsequently if for some reason it is not posted, you will see the result as you mentioned (no data in the database).
If you are using correct BAPI and have no errors, then in ABAP program make sure to call 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' after the BAPI call to post invoice.
For non-SAP external system, you need not have to call the commit BAPI but just closing the connection to SAP will help.

What is variant in ABAP Program Process Block in Process Chain?

I wrote an ABAP program:
REPORT ZTEST,
PARAMETERS: PROC(80) TYPE C.
I can test this PORGRAM from SE38, it shows me a pop-up screen for PROC and I can enter a value and execute.
Now I want to call this program ZTEST from a process chain. In Process Chain Selected a Process u201CABAP Programu201D. It asks me program name and Program variant, I entered Program Name as ZTEST and
Program variant as a character string HELLO.
When I execute Porcess Chain, ABAP Program errors saying that variant HELLO not found.
What is Program variant in ABAP Program Process in Process Chain?
Thanks,

Dont get confused here.
Variant name is not which you are pasing to the program.
You enter some values inside the variant and you specify the program to take the input from the variant.
Suppose you have to pass 10 parameters to a program.
user1 creates a variant " hello1" which contains his own selection for the 10 values
user2 creates another variant "hello2" which contain his own set of selecion values.
When we use this program in PC, you can use the variant user1 or user2 as per our requirement.
please check if you are giving variant as input or the proc value.
Hope this helps,
Sri....
