Translate report painter selection screen

Hi,
I have a problem.
I need to translate selection screen of report created by report painter.
Report name is 1SIP-001, Objeckt 1VK
Do you know how to do this?

Well, the problem is, report name is generated because it's build with report painter.
I would like to use SE63 but I don't know what to options should I use.

Report Painter -Selection Screen Order

I am doing a Report Painter for the first time in years.
I am hoping someone can remind me how ( if possible) to change the order of the the selection screen.
For example, if I have 2 Fiscal Year varables and 2 Period Variables, is there a way to change the order so the screen shows
FY1
Period 1
FY2
Period 2
Thank you,
Jeffrey

Thanks,
Your answer works when there is only one field, 2 variables.
I have 2 fields, 2 variables each.
So, for example with Fiscal Year and Period, I have
zfy1
zperiod1
zfy2
zperio2
When I do the report, the Fiscal Year variables group together and then the period variables.
i.e.
zfy1
zfy2
zper1
zper2
I can't separate them and reorder them as above.
zfy1
zper1
zfy2
zper2
Thank you

Prob in Submit Report via Selection screen.

Hi,
I have to submit a report via selection screen.
The report name is detemined at run time.
This i am able to handle easily as we can use SUBMIT (V_PROG)...
 WHERE V_PROG contains the name of the report that i get at runtime...
Now the issue :::::::
I have to also populate a select-options on the called report on submit.
usually this is done by :
 SUBMIT (V_PROG)
 name of select-option in itab...
However in my case the name of the <name of select-option> is also detemined at runtime say PNPPERNR.
Now if i use any variable / field symbol for the name of the select - option (like for the called program), it does not work (the called report does not have the values i populate in ITAB for the particular select-option)
I have also tried Macro but cant find solution...
ANY IDEAS ??

Hi Anuj,
When you are getting the report name in runtime, you can also get the report selection screen information during runtime.
Now how are you going to decide which values you will move to which selection screen variables of which report? If you have a way to determine this, then here is a program that works on that assumption.
REPORT ztest1 .
DATA: i_seltab TYPE TABLE OF rsparams WITH HEADER LINE,
 i_selections_info TYPE TABLE OF selinfo WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA: v_report LIKE sy-repid,
 v_matnr LIKE mara-matnr.
PARAMETERS: p_rep1 RADIOBUTTON GROUP rad DEFAULT 'X',
 p_rep2 RADIOBUTTON GROUP rad.
SELECT-OPTIONS: s_matnr FOR v_matnr.
START-OF-SELECTION.
IF p_rep1 = 'X'.
*-- some criteria to determine the name of the report
 v_report = 'ZTEST2'.
ELSE.
 v_report = 'ZTEST4'.
ENDIF.
*-- get the parameters for the report
CALL FUNCTION 'RS_SELECTIONS_DESCRIPTION'
 EXPORTING
 report = v_report
 TABLES
 selections_info = i_selections_info
 EXCEPTIONS
 no_selections = 1
 report_not_existent = 2
 subroutine_pool = 3
 OTHERS = 4.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
 WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
LOOP AT i_selections_info WHERE name = 'S_MATNR'.
*-- some criteria based on which, move the values from this program
* to the called program
 CLEAR i_seltab.
 i_seltab-selname = i_selections_info-name.
 i_seltab-kind = i_selections_info-kind.
 i_seltab-sign = 'I'.
 i_seltab-option = 'EQ'.
 i_seltab-low = s_matnr-low.
 i_seltab-high = s_matnr-high.
 APPEND i_seltab.
ENDLOOP.
IF NOT i_seltab[] IS INITIAL.
 SUBMIT (v_report) VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
 WITH SELECTION-TABLE i_seltab .
ENDIF.
If this works for you, please reward and close the post.

Call a report with selection screen as subscreen.

Hi all,
i need to Submit And Return a Report having some parameters and Select options, from a Function Module.
all i want that the Selection Scrren of Report should appeared as Subscreeen, so that Calling Screen sould be visible in Background.
Is this Possible , if yes then How ?
thanks in advance,
Nitin

Running new report means opening new internal session. This can't be embeded within the current internal session where your function group (function module specifically) runs. So there is no such a way which you could run a report inside a subscreen area.
If you however want only selection screen of the report to be embeded inside your subscreen area (not run) you can use
"report Z_SUBSCREEN_REPORT
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF SCREEN 0200 as SUBSCREEN.
PARAMETERS pa type c.
SELECTION-SCREEN end of SCREEN 0200.
"main screen's flow logic in function group with subscreen area
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
call SUBSCREEN area INCLUDING 'Z_SUBSCREEN_REPORT '0200'.

Report Groups - Selection screen on receiver report

Hi there,
When dealing with sender / receiver reports, do you know if it's possible to force a selection screen prompt when calling a receiver report during execution?
A report was written in the Report Painter, and belongs to a report group called 1OAB. This report group has three receiver reports defined, so when users double click on a value, it will forward navigate to another report (receiver report, selected after double click) using the same selection criteria of the current report (sender).
My problem, is that the selection criteria that is passed by the sender isn't sufficient for the receiver report, and the report ends up running with a much larger selection than required.
My question, is whether or not we can either:
a) Interrupt during the report call and prompt with the report selection screen for the receiver report. This would allow the user to input any missing selections.
b) Add in any missing selections via a user exit. I have not had much luck in finding such an exit. The closest I got was form 'USEREXIT1' from include LRSTIF90. This exit appears to be called before and after the report call. I'm not sure if it's a true exit though, as it's just a piece of code in an include and is referred to as an exit? To implement would I just register the object and add in my code?
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Thanks,
L

FYI the only solution I see is to put in a modification to prompt a selection screen during execution. Modification would go in include 'LRSTIF02' as follows:
PERFORM report_check_obligatory TABLES it_fieldr
 USING flg_obl.
** MODIFICATION **
if ld_tcode = 'FBL3N'.
 flg_obl = 'X'.
endif.
** END MODIFICATION **
IF flg_obl IS INITIAL.
 CALL TRANSACTION ld_tcode AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
ELSE.
 CALL TRANSACTION ld_tcode.
ENDIF.
* clear parameter ids
* perform clear_pid_fieldr tables it_fieldr it_dfies.
PERFORM reset_pid_fieldr TABLES it_fieldr it_selpid.
* if flg_return = 'X'.
* call transaction ld_tcode and skip first screen.
* else.
* leave to transaction ld_tcode.
* endif.
ENDFORM.
If anybody has a better idea on how to accomplish this I'd love to hear it!
Thanks,
L

Report painter selection

Hi,
I am new to using report painter. I was required to modify an existing report for sales figues (using infostructure S514). In transaction GRR2 I navigated to the appropriate report in 3PK and in 'General Data Selection' added sold-to-party from the available characteristics. From looking at the existing fields I checked the checkboxes for 'SET or Hierarchy Node' and 'variable On'. Using F4 help dialog I set the contents of the 'From' field to the appropriate value (variable 3PK38, sold-to-party, type set, table S514, field KUNAG). I then saved and executed the report. The report works fine except that in the selection screen, instead of adding one select option it added two: 'Sold-to-party' and 'Or value(s)'. Checking F4 for sold-to party brings up 3 different set IDs with description customer. Even if I leave this field blank the report works correctly. Pressing F4 for the 'Or value(s)' field brings up a list of customers, as required. Why is this happening only for this field (sold-to-party) when the configuration for this is the same as for all the other fields? Is there some way I can remove the 'Sold-to-party' field with the set IDs and just leave the 'Or value(s)' field in the selection screen? If this is possible, can the text for the 'Or value(s)' field be renamed to something more appropriate (like customers)? I checked in the text options in GRR2 but it doesn't show me the 'Or value(s)' field, just the 'Sold-to-party' field, which is not what I want. Help is appreciated.
Regards

Suggestions? Anyone?

Report Painter selection variables sorting

I have added a number of characteristics to my report painter report and set some as variables
i.e. plan version 1, plan version 2, plan version 3, plan version 1 year, plan version 2 year, plan version 3 year.
These variables appear on the selection screen in the following order;
plan version 1,
plan version 2,
plan version 3,
plan version 1 year,
plan version 2 year,
plan version 3 year.
What the business require is the variables to appear on the selection screen as follows;
plan version 1,
plan version 1 year,
plan version 2,
plan version 2 year,
plan version 3,
plan version 3 year
Has anyone any idea how the selection screen sorts the variables?
Can the selection screen sort order be changed for a report?
Your assistance is appreciated
John

For Selection Screen, you can try to use Selection Variant.
The steps are like this:
a. Go to GRR2 (change report painter)
b. Then choose the report you are developing
c. Execute the report
d. On the selection screen, choose Go To-> Variant -> Save As Variant
e. At Variant Attributes screen, you can do the following as your requirement:
    ·        Description
Enter a short, meaningful description of the variant. This can be up to 30 characters long.
·        Only for background processing
Select this field if you want the variant to be available for background processing but not in dialog mode.
·        Protect variant
Select this field if you want to prevent your variant being changed by other users.
·        Only display in catalog
Select this field if you only want the variant name to be displayed in the variant catalog (and not when the user calls the F4 value help).
·        System variant
This field cannot accept input. It is set automatically when a system variant (beginning with CUS& or SAP&) is created.
You can also assign the following further attributes to the selections in a variant:
·        Type
The system indicates here whether a field is a parameter (P) or a selection option (S).
·        Protected
Select this column for each selection that you want to write-protect on the selection screen. These fields are visible on the selection screen when the user starts a program with the variant, but do not accept user input.
·        Invisible
If you select this column, the system hides the corresponding field on the selection screen. This allows you to change the appearance of the selection screen.
·        Selection variable
If you select this column, you can set the value of the corresponding selection dynamically at runtime. The different ways of doing this are explained in the section Variable Values in Variants.
·        Without values
If you select this field, the contents of the corresponding field are not saved with the variant.
This is useful if you do not want to overwrite the contents of this field on the selection screen.
For example, suppose you create a report 'SAPTEST', with the parameter 'TEST', for which you create the variant 'TESTVARIANT'. In the variant, you set the 'Without values' flag for the parameter. Then, you run time program and enter the value 'ABCD' in the TEST field. If you now retrieve the 'TESTVARIANT' variant, the TEST field retains the value ABC instead of being overwritten by SPACE.
·        SPA/GPA
This attribute only appears if you created the corresponding selection criterion using 'MEMORY ID xxxu2019. You can switch the SPA/GPA handling on and off in the variant. This means that fields filled using SPA/GPA appear with their initial values after you have loaded a variant in which those fields have an initial value.
f. When you are finished, you can save it and name the variant (e.g.: Z_S_Screen for simpler selection screen)
After that, every time you want to have the selection screen, you can choose Get Variant or Go To-> Variant-> and select the variant you have saved.

How to create a report with selection screen that can run in background

Sorry to ask these basic questions but I am knew to ABAP Programming.
To keep it simply, I am attempting to create a report that has a simple parameter driven selections screen with one field. That field takes in a folder path from the user. The user executes the report. The report creates a simply BDC that goes into SE16, gathers data from a table, and exports the results to a text file using the folder path provided. I created a variant for the folder path field in the selection screen hoping to use it while executing the report in the background. The report is not exporting the file as it did when run in the foreground for some reason.
I am wondering what event is triggered when a report is executed in the background. In the foreground (or when I execute the program via SE38->Execute->With Variant) the user needs to execute the program by hitting the execute button once the variant has populated the folder path field. It works then, so I am trying to get the same to work in the background. I am thinking I didn't put the program together correctly to accommodate the running in the background. How can you create a report that can accept user input via variant into a selection screen and then run in the background?
Please, any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks you all for reading this!!!

Ok, finally I understand what you're doing. Initially you lost me with the SE16 reference...
Not sure what you're trying to achieve overall, but apart from the fact that you cannot export/download a file to a user's PC via background job (unless you have a mapped network share on the server or something like an FTP server on the user's PC, but both are pretty hypothetical scenarios and unlikely to occur).
Also, the BDC approach to get data via SE16 is pretty awkward. Note that SE16 is guarded by some authorization checks and often users won't have access in production (which might not matter if you intend to always run your program in background via dedicated batch user). However, I have no clue why you wouldn't want to use [open SQL|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENOPEN_SQL_READING.htm] to read the data. You could then save it on the application server or if you really have to get it to the user you can consider e-mailing the file (extracts should be compressed before sending). For the latter you'll find plenty of references here, basically it's the [business communication services|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/2d/1c5d3aebba4c38e10000000a114084/frameset.htm] that you'd need to look at.

Add fields in KOB2 & KSB2 report in selection screen as well as output

Dear All,
I have an issue in which i have to add fields in KOB2 & KSB2 report.
i need to add below fields to KSB2 report.
1) Internal order
2) Vendor
3) Purchasing group
I also need to add profit centre in selection screen for KSB2
Similarly for KOB2 i need to add below fields
1) Cost centre
2) Vendor
3) Purchasing group
I also need to add cost centre as input for KOB2 report.
I have gone through note 325546 "CO line item reports: Creating a user-defined field" which can be helpful.
However i am not sure as to how do i add fields in input screen as required.
Other alternative is to create a Z report however when i try and copy the report both KOB2 & KSB2 call same report "RKAEP000".
I am not able to get as to how do i differentiate the call of different screens when ZKOB2 is called or when ZKSB2 is called.
I could identify " c_item_group" field having different values however i couldnot get a proper logic as to how correct screen can be called based on input
Please suggest .
Thanks,
Ronak

Hi Raymond,
The note 747588 is good as soon as you are adding fields from the same table only.
When I have added additional table into KAEP_SCOVP selection view below COVP (just because the extra fields I need are not in COVP) they will show up in KOB1 as selection criteria, but not getting saved.
Any idea if any ABAP should be regenerated or what extra steps are required when adding more tables into Selection View?
Thank you!

Background processing for ABAP report with selection screen

Hi ABAP Gurus,
I m facing a strange problem in scheduling a background job for my report with a selection screen. I have a variant for the report.
I scheduled a job, but it seems to be not doing anything though all the system resources are available. The job overview shows "Acive" for the job. The job is neither stopping anything, it is just sitting there In SM50, the status shows "On Hold".
Any ideas/comments on the problem and how this can be overcome?
Qucik replies and solutions will be highly appreciated as this is a crucial part for a go-live project.
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.

Yes. My report has a selection-screen which requires user input. But I have created a variant for the report and trying to run it in background using this variant. But facing this problem.
Strange thing is, instead of the usual SM36/SM37 option where we schedule and monitor background jobs, this option does not work for my report.
But I tried through SE38, and from my selection screen I selected "Schedule background job" and "run immediately" option, and this works. Though I still use SM37 to monitor this background job.
I have never faced such a situation before.
Any hints/tips why this happens and how this can be overcome in the future?
Thanks in advance.
Shivani.
