Dyamic execution of report for every month and data through mail.

Question

Dear Friends,
We are using ECC6.00 With EHP4. My requirement is to send the list of pending notifications with the list details as appearing in transaction QM10. Every month i am supposed to change the from date and to date for example 01.07.2010 to 31.07.2010 for the month July.
How can i make system calculate the from and to date for every month and send mail.
I can schedule the  job using SM36 but how to make system calculate the from and to date dynamically for every month. i.e., for august system should calculate date 01.08.2010 to 30.08.2010 automatically as the next month is reached.
Experts help required.
Regards,
M.M

Answer 1

1. You need to create a variant.
2. In this blank out the date and give all the required values which will filter for the Pending nofitications like notificaiton type, status, etc.
3. Then click save.
4. When you click save it will give you an option to save as variant.
5. Now in the Variant Attributes screen give the variant name/meanting
6. In the below you will get a "objects for selection screen)
7. In the same you will get the filed name calle d" notification date"/
8. Here Move the curson to the righ side you will find the selection variable, change to D-Dyanamic date calcuation  and after that right side you will see one more column for the name of variable(input using only f4)
9. Here press f4,
10. then  ypou get a pop up for selection varaible. there first Put "I: for current date and also 'I" for hte Current date +/- ??? days
in this give 30 days.
11. You can also use other function her.e
Now once the variant is created then you have to schedule a job for this program + variant in the sm36 and in the distribution list
you need to mention the email
