How to create variant in Webdynpro

Hi Gurus,
I have created a WebDynpro report (WD Application). I have around 10 input fields on my first view.
My second view will display an ALV report.
Now I want to create variant for my selection screen( on my first view) so that the user will not need to always give
values to all the 10 input fields. Please let me know if you have any solution for this.
Thanks,
Pradeep

>Please tell me I am missing some setting somewhere
No, your statements are accurate and increasingly a request that I hear from customers.  I pass on this request to the people who do the portfolio planning.  Also the ASUG UI Influence Council has recently taken up this topic as well.  It would also be helpful if you add your voice to the sticky thread on this forum asking for enhancement suggestions.  All these things help add weight to a feature request.
Some thoughts from the SAP side - We do have personalization and configuration - some tasks that were done iwth variants could be acomplished with these new techniques.  Also variant were originally designed for background processing.  Since Web Dynpro ABAP can't be ran in the background anyway, that use case is out.
Personally I would like to see variants at least built into the Select-Options reusable component. It seems like a nice ballance between the requirements.
>This is really crazy when considering user specific ALV display variants can be saved -- but not shared as Global variants.
You can create global layouts for the ALV by logging on in Admin mode.  Are you just saying you would like to be able to "promote" user specific layouts to global ones?

  • 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.

  • How to create variant for table/view ?

    Can anyone tell me how to create variant for table / view ?

    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.

    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.

    1. T.code : CT04(characteristic) FORD_MODEL, Choose single value & entry required tab & give the input as 01 - fiesta_lxi & 02 - fiesta_vxi.( characteristic values)
    2.Tcode: CT04, FORD_BODY( another characteristic)
    Choose single value , don't click entry required.
    01 - Red( characteristic values)
    02- Blue
    3. Create class T.code : CL02

  • 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.

    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

  • How to create Variants in Web Dynpro using ABAP

    Can anyone please tell how to create and save variants in a Web DynPro application using ABAP.
    Also state the steps involved in saving and loading the variants.

    hi,
    For calender control, there is Date Navigator under "complex tab". You can just click and drag it and provide calender control.
    One more easy way is to create a input field. In the context, create a node and attribute of type "D"(which means DATE). And bind the context to your input field under "values" in property window. While running the program, you will see an calender attached to lt on the input field.

  • 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,
