How to get selection screen variant name of a report ?

Hi Experts,
Can any body please suggest, how I can get the variant name that was selected when a report program was being scheduled in background?
I am using system field SY-SLSET but it is working only at foregrounf execution.In background mode it holds different value like '&0000000000038'.
Thanks in advance.

Hi !
When running the program in foreground (SE38 -> F8) or in a background job (SM36), sy-slrel is correctly filled.
When running in background via SE38 transaction (run in background  : F9), sy-slrel is not filled correctly (&000010 for example).
However, in the second case, you still are in foreground when in the selection screen. Thus this simple but quite efficient idea of  [Vinod Vemuru|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/~ncz6anw] :

  • To display the selection screen variant name in WAD report output.

    Hello experts,
    I have a requirement which is to display the selection screen variant description in the output of the WAD report.
    I managed halfway, by using the object "Information field", which displays all the values which are selected by the variant.
    Example:I have created a cost center report created using WAD, since I need some graphical displays..
    In the selection screen, I have the characteristic "cost center" as input field. I have created a variant " GM - IT" which will include few cost centers managed by GM. In the output, I want the dispaly to be "Cost center - GM IT". Currently it displays "Cost Center - a,b,c,d" as the values a,b,c,d are the values from the variant name "GM-IT"
    Please let me know if this required any java script. I am not familiar with java / html codes and any help would be much appreciated (and rewarded)
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Try this.
    If you want to include your variables in your WAD means you have to choose "Force Variable Screen" option to be in enabled condition.
    TO enable this,in WAD select your Template(New Template1) click the WEBITEM , it'll shows all generic properties , here you can enable this "Force variable screen"
    Save and execute your WAD now you can get your variable screen.
    Thanks,

  • How to get selection screen elements and its table reference of a report ?

    halo experts
    How can I get selection screen elements and its table reference of a report ? . I tried rs_refresh_from_select_options. But I am unable to get the table and field it is referring to
    For eg if my selection screen 1000 is
    parameters: p_carrid type spfli-carrid,
    select-options :s-_connid type sflight-connid.
    is there any Fm or method which gives me what are the screen elements( p_carrid and s_connid ) and what table( splfi and sflight ) and field ( carrid and conid )it is referring to ?

    The following code is an example of how you might dynamically determine all your PARAMETERS and SELECT-OPTIONS variables at run time.  The PARAMETERS and SELECT-OPTIONS only point to a dictionary element--not a specific table.  Even though you may say "spfli-carrid" or "sflight-connid", the data type really references the dictionary type and not a specific table/structure.
    REPORT  ZTEST_PROG.
    TABLES sflight.
    DATA:
           screen_tab TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF screen,
           wa_screen TYPE screen,
           scrn_nm TYPE string,
           scrn_leftover TYPE string,
           l_type TYPE REF TO cl_abap_typedescr,
           typ_nm TYPE string,
           typ_pre TYPE string.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs_data> TYPE ANY.
    PARAMETERS p_carrid TYPE spfli-carrid.
    SELECT-OPTIONS s_connid FOR sflight-connid.
    INITIALIZATION.
      LOOP AT SCREEN.
        IF screen-group3 = 'PAR'
          OR screen-group3 = 'LOW'.
            APPEND screen TO screen_tab.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
    START-OF-SELECTION.
      LOOP AT screen_tab INTO wa_screen.
        ASSIGN (wa_screen-name) TO <fs_data>.
        l_type = cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( <fs_data> ).
        IF wa_screen-group3 = 'LOW'.
          SPLIT wa_screen-name AT '-' INTO scrn_nm scrn_leftover.
          TRANSLATE scrn_nm TO UPPER CASE.
        ELSE.
          scrn_nm = wa_screen-name.
        ENDIF.
        SPLIT l_type->absolute_name AT '=' INTO typ_pre typ_nm.
        WRITE:
                 / 'Screen Name:  ', scrn_nm,
                 / 'DDIC Type:    ', typ_nm.
      ENDLOOP.
    When you get into defining internal tables you can determine those at run time with cl_abap_structdescr.  The following is an example of how you might do that.  You can loop through the "components_table" and evaluate each field of the structure in this way.
    DATA: structure_reference TYPE REF TO cl_abap_structdescr,
          components_table TYPE abap_compdescr_tab,
          components_structure LIKE LINE OF components_table.
    structure_reference ?= cl_abap_structdescr=>describe_by_data( any_structure ).
    components_table = structure_reference->components.
    I don't know if this answers any of your questions but I hope that some of it is useful.

  • Get selection screen parameters from sap query

    Hello. I use SAP Query Reporting, so I added a report assignment for detailing (sq01 ->  Change button -> Goto -> Report Assignment -> Insert row -> Other type row -> Abap Report Program)
    and put there ABAP program.
    When I run query and press CtrlShiftF1  (or double click) It calls my abap program.
    So the question is: how to get selection screen parameters in my program ?
    to be more precise I want to get date parameter (begda, endda)
    Thanks a lot.

    There is a Z query which I can see in sq01. I set reporting period and run the query; when I run it, it gives me the employee list.
    So I wrote the abap report to get an employee details, customized query as I mentioned above.
    The query calls my report and I need to get parameters.
    SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK frm1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
    PARAMETER :  p_pernr LIKE p0001-pernr OBLIGATORY MATCHCODE OBJECT prem.
    PARAMETER : p_date LIKE sy-datum.
    SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK frm1.
    Parameter
    p_pernr
    passes normal. ALV Query contains it, but I'd like to get one more parameter from selection screen of the query and don't know how to get it.

  • How can I get selection screen values from outside of program?

    Hi. all.
    Now. I'm developing moritoring systems and I have problems. for getting selection screen values in runtime. Is there any function, methods or structure to know this?
    I'd like to get selection screen values while several programs working in runtime and update these values to table to show current system's status and input values for users in real time.
    For example.
    Now. 3 PGMs are working on systems.
    each PGM is ZAAA01, ZAAA02, ZAAA03.
    and ZAAA01 needs input parameter P01, ZAAA02 needs input parameter P02, ZAAA03 needs input parameter P03.
    In this case, I have to know values of P01, P02 and P03.
    The mornitoring systems will show current working status of PGMs(ZAAA01~03)' and these PGMs' input values.
    As fas as I know, the structure 'SCREEN' can be used in each PGM for runtime. Is there any SAP system structure or something else for this purpose?
    I hope your hopeful repsponse.
    Thanks.

    Umm..I need to explain more about this.
    of course I know  SET, GET PARAMETERS.
    But I'd like to minimize coding for each PGM level.
    I have over hundreds PGMs and I have to develop the PGM(including tables and structures) that mornitor
    all of those PGMs on a report in real-time.
    This PGM is kind of  Process Manager.
    First I should know dialogue job PGM and background job that pass parameters using SAP(ABAP) Memory.
    And then I have to update those PGMs' input values via screens into tables in real-time.
    So, I couldn't use SET,GET PARAMETERS for this PGM.
    I want to know methods that can be used for getting information about runtime PGMs' selection screen field values in SAP systems wide.
    Please help me some one knows this.

  • How to limit the creation of the selection screen variant

    Hi,
    I have a question concerning the selection screen variants. Is it possible to limit the number of variant created by users (in customizing, authorization..)  ?
    If, yes, can you please tell me the procedure to follow.
    thanks for help.

    Cannot be restricted during creation but you can do a program that reads the report's existing variants, delete some, or modify the variant's content, you can put that in the program itself so when executed, apply your validation, or a background job depending on your requirements.
    You can do it with this function modules:
    RS_ALL_VARIANTS_4_1_REPORT
    RS_CHANGE_CREATED_VARIANT
    RS_VARIANT_DELETE

  • How to get the Portal Page name from PLSQL?

    Can anyone tell me how to get the portal page name from my dynamic page using plsql?
    Apparently you can get the page id and work it out from there, but my calls to get the page id are not returning any values anyway.
    My code for attempting to get the page id is below.
    <oracle>
    declare
    v_pageid varchar2(30);
    begin
    v_pageid := wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('_pageid', '/pls/portal30');
    htp.print('Page is '|| v_pageid);
    end;
    </oracle>
    Ideally I'd actually just like to get the page name. Is there a straightforward way to do this?
    Thanks in advance!
    Sarah

    Few clarifications -
    1. wwpro_api_parameters cannot be used to get default portal
    page parameters such as '_pageid', '_dad', '_schema' etc.,
    2. Page information can be obtained through any components which
    are available in that particular page. For example, in case of
    dynamic page, we need to publish it as a portlet and add it to the
    page. This process creates necessary packages in the DB, but we
    will not have access to the portlet methods.
    So, I would prefer creating a simple DB provider & portlet and access
    page title from its show method as follows -
    //Declare local variable l_page_id, l_page_title as varchar2
    select page_id into l_page_id from wwpob_portlet_instance$ where
    portlet_id = p_portlet_record.portlet_id and
    provider_id = p_portlet_record.provider_id;
    select name into l_page_title from wwpob_page$ where id=l_page_id;
    More information on DB provider can be found at
    http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/PDK/articles/understanding.database.providers.html
    Secondly, usage of wwpro_api_parameters.get_value method is
    incorrect. This method expects two arguments -
    <ul>
    <li><b>p_name : </b> The name of the parameter to be returned.</li>
    <li><b>p_reference_path : </b> An unique identifier for a portlet instance on the current page.</li>
    </ul>
    p_reference_path would be something like 99_SNOOP_PORTLET_76535103 and not some type of path as its name suggests.
    The following code fragment fetches all parameters available
    for a portlet.
    Note : Copy this code into 'show' method of your portlet.
    //Declare l_names, l_values as owa.vc_arr
    * Retreive all of the names of parameters for this portlet
    l_names := wwpro_api_parameters.get_names(
    p_reference_path=>p_portlet_record.reference_path);
    * Retreive all of the values of parameters for this portlet
    l_values := wwpro_api_parameters.get_values(p_names=>l_names,
    p_reference_path=>p_portlet_record.reference_path);
    //Loop through these arrays to get parameter information
    htp.p('<center><table BORDER COLS=2 WIDTH="90%" >');
    htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
    htp.tableData(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_heading('Name',1));
    htp.tableData(wwui_api_portlet.portlet_heading('Value',1));
    htp.tableRowClose;
    if l_names.count = 0 then
    htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
    htp.p('<td COLSPAN="2">'
    ||wwui_api_portlet.portlet_text(
    'No portlet parameters were passed on the URL.',1)
    ||'</td>');
    htp.tableRowClose;
    else
    for i in 1..l_names.count loop
    htp.p('<tr ALIGN=LEFT VALIGN=TOP>');
    htp.tableData(l_names(i));
    htp.tableData(l_values(i));
    htp.tableRowClose;
    end loop;
    end if;
    htp.p('</table></center>');
    Hope it helps...
