Setting a global display variant

While I try to get the report for IH08,I am trying to set a layout,but there only user specific and default display layout is present.
I am not able to create it globally?
Is there a way?

You can modify the default layout at system using transaction code OIYC. Run the aforementioned tcode and choose "Selection Screen list change mode" and then Click on "Attributes on top left side of the screen and maintain them.
The layout will be automatically set as default layout with layout name "/SY". You don't have to mention layout name.

Global display variant authorisations

Morning
Anyone know the authorisation to use to ensure that I can create global display variants for QM reports such as QA32? I thought it may be SD_VARIANT_MAINTAIN but this does not seem to make any difference.
Cheers
Ian

THanks for your help Raja
In the end the solution was not far away. A colleague of mine found in the area that I was in earlier.
Customizing->Quality Managment->Quality Inspection-> List Definition->Define Variants (List View Function).
Select this and then choose QA32/33 Inspection Lots. Then choose the bottom option Maintain Field Selection List. You are then presented with the program selection screen as you are in the previous two options. Crucially however, you need to execute the program and it then takes you into the list display maintenance.
It was the last step that was the breakthrough. I have documented it for future searches on the same subject.

User Specific Display Variants

Hi
Were on ECC 6.0 and when I choose to create and save a display variant from and ALV screen the user-specific box is ticked and I can not un-tick it because its grayed out - no matter what we do we can not un-tick this checkbox. We need to create global display variants so that all user can use these display variants.
Is there a configuration setting that we can adjust ?? any suggestions to overcome this problem are welcome.
Thanks

Hi Eric,
I'm a bit busy now and I cannot give you a complete solution, but sure can give you some c(l)ue. Just see if you have some success. If you do not, then i wuill get back to you later.
Refer to the follwoing SAP Tables and see if you have some luck.
==========================================================
LTDX --> Generic storage of display variants
LTDXD --> Default display variants
LTDXS --> SAP Default Display Variants
LTDXT --> Display variant texts
==========================================================
The idea is to try and manipulate the table entries for various users.

ABAP Query display variant problem

Hi,
We have three different SAP clients development DV1, Staging ST1 and production PC1. I have created an abap query for which I m trying to create a global display variant (not user specific). I m able to do so easily in DV1 and PC1 systems. But when I try to create a display variant on ST1 by first running the report and then going to menu Settings->Layout->Save . I find that by default the User-Specific checkbox is selected and disabled. Because of this I can create only user specific display variants for my queries.
Where can I change the settings so that when I go to the above menu the User-specific checkbox is enabled and I m able to create global display variants ?
Thank you for reading.
Krishna

I am confuse after reading your question , any way we can adding "default" variant in SQ01. You can also assign the same variant in SE93 , when you create T-code for the specific query !!.
Well if it doesnt solve your problem ..please explain your question with the help of tr. codes and what youre trying to do !!
Im sorry , its really making me knutt by reading your question again and again .
Thanks

Setting display variant in BDC

Hi Guys,
   I am trying to set a particular custom display variant for item layout during BDC for MIRO. I am able to populate the MIRO screen field RM08M-ITEM_LIST_VERSION with the correct variant name, but the layout does not change accordingly. I tried doing a recording for this, but even in the recording when I try to switch between variants the layout does not change.
My questions are:
1) Am I doing someting wrong here?
2) Is this something which can be done through BDC? If yes, how can I do this?
Please let me know.
Regards,
Nanditha

Hi Nanditha,
You have to change the options when you do the call MIRO.
Parameter NOBINPT in OPTIONS must have the value 'X'.
Define the OPTIONS structure:
DATA: LF_OPT LIKE CTU_PARAMS.
Give the OPTIONS parameters a value:
MOVE 'E' TO LF_OPT-DISMODE.
MOVE 'S' TO LF_OPT-UPDMODE.
MOVE ' ' TO LF_OPT-CATTMODE
MOVE ' ' TO LF_OPT-DEFSIZE.
MOVE ' ' TO LF_OPT-RACOMMIT
MOVE 'X' TO LF_OPT-NOBINPT.
MOVE ' ' TO LF_OPT-NOBIEND.
CALL TRANSACTION 'MIRO' USING BDCDATA
                        OPTIONS FROM LF_OPT
                        MESSAGES INTO ERRORMESSAGES.

Line Item Display Variant MIRO-column position needs to be changed..

Hi,
What is the possible way of setting the column position in line item display variant in MIRO screen.
I need to change the positions of couple of columns so need to have one layout as per my requirement.
Does this involve only confiuration or it also needs ABAP changes?
Request to suggest in detail if any one has done it already.
Thanks in advance.
Reagrds,
BM

Hi Charlie,
Thanks for this help.However I have couple of doubts.
When I save the new variant it asks me for package or local object.
Cutrrently I have selected n saved as local object but what is the real time scenarion.Do we need to select any package on this screen.I am not aware of these things in detail so nwant to know the difference between a local object and a package and is it functional consultant's task to do this or developers should do this since they can select the package
Please advise on this.
Thanks in advance.

Display variant for transaction FBL3N - can it be protected?

Hi,
I have made a display variant for transaction FBL3N (G/L account line item display).
Can I protect this variant?
I don't like other users to overwrite it.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

Hi Linda,
Line layout variants depend on a few things.
1 authorizations.
you need to make sure general users cannot change the standard layout. This is done via settings, layout, administration.
2. Personal variants, you can create your own variant and set it up just for yourself.
This can be done by selecting the user specifc tick box. The naming will have to be different but a user wont be able to see or change your variant.
3. Lastly you can set your variant in FB00, however all this does is assign a variant to a user, someone with either the correct authorization or a variant that is not a user specific one COULD be changed.
Hope this helps.
Please award points if useful.

ALV display Variant

hi,
I wrote a code for allowing the user to choose a display variant in the selection screen. The user chooses the required variant in the selection screen and views the ALV grid accordingly. This code is working fine in the development server but as it was transported to the quality server, somehow it has stopped working.
Any new variants that are created are displayed in the selection screeN F4 help, but somehow the variants are not working.
Could anyone suggest where i am going wrong?
Thanks,
Aviroop

try to comment it and see./
it will work..
you are telling that alv Fm set the default variant.
if you don't want then comment it, then what ever you choose in selection screen will come in the output otherwise defaut variant overrides the selected one.

CN41 default display variant

Hello,
I have been struggling with this request for a while.
We just upgraded from 46B to ECC60. for report CN41, the user want to setup a default display variant so every time they logon, they don't need to manually pick a display variant. In the 46B version, you can save a variant as a default variant through variant management on the report display page. But in the ECC60, it's gone. I tried and tried, but there is no way I can find to save a variant as default in the ECC60 version. Also, the users don't want to have the project expanded to WBS levels at all when they execute the report. They want all the projects to be collapsed when they execute the report. I don't know how to set this up either.
I tried cn41n, but you can't do drill down and can't make the projects all collapsed either.
Please help.
I have tried every way I could and can't find the solution.
thanks in advance.

Hi Cindy
Assuming that I understood your issue.here is the solution for one of your troubles.
1) In the CN41 report Menu bar click on Evaluation --> Get Profiles/Variant
2) In the pop-up that opens up note the subprofile you are using for displayed fields
3) Goto SPRO --> PS --> Info Systems --> Technical project reports --> Define profiles for displayed fields --> select structure overview --> enter the subprofile you are using for displayed fields --> Add the fields you want to be defaulted as new entries -- SAVE.
4) Once you have done this go back to the profiles/variant screen and select the profile once again
This should solve your issue

The post-expression for the step 'Set Station Global Models' could not be evaluated.

When running a TestStand sequence, I get the following error message:
The post-expression for the step 'Set Station Global Models' could not be evaluated.
Variable or property types do not match or are not compatible.
Error Code: -17321; Variable or property types do not match or are not compatible.
Although I do understand what the above is telling me, fixing the root cause is somewhat another thing.
I'll explain the scenario. The code is developped in TS4.1.0, although that should be irrelevant.
I inherited a TestStand project which calls LabVIEW modules. The original sequence works fine on the test pc (which is remotely located). The local and remote PC's share the same StationGlobals.ini.
Here is why it is strange.. I do get the error message on the local PC whether I use the old or the new code. I was assuming that using the same StationGlobals.ini would have fixed that, but it didn't.
When I run the old code on the remote PC, I do not get that message, but I do get it with the new code. I don't recall modifying code that affected the StationGlobals. My goal is to fix it on both machines (at least the remote one).
This is the expression that it does not like:
StationGlobals.Models=Locals.Models,
However, that very same expression exists in the original code. The one thing that did change is the addition of a new model number in the Locals.Models.newNumber. I suspect that this contributes to the error. But why does it give me an error when I run the original sequence locally? Maybe I should try running it again..
In either case, any suggestions to overcome the error?
Thanks.
RayR
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Please ignore post.
I found the problem.. There was a mismatch with the number of models. Easy fix. It's all good.
For someone else who might tumble onto this thread for the same reason, here's an explanation.
I added a new model with its variants to the list of Locals.Models. In total, there were 16 additions to the list.
I also added these to the StationGlobals. Which meant that my StationGlobals no longer matched the one on the remote PC.
Where the error came in is that there was one missing model in the StationGlobals, so the size (number of models) did not match that of the Locals.
Slight oversight in the sea of models that are listed (I'm not even going to count them). Now fixed.
... and embarrassed ...
I may as well give myself an "Accepted Solution".

Display Variants in ALV

Hi,
I copied an existing Z report program to a new program to conform to the naming standards and deleted the old program. (I could do renaming as well but did it this way)
When copying the program, all object including the selection variants were copied but the ALV display variants were not copied to the target program. Any thoughts on this please?
I tried using a simple program to copy the LTDX (Generic storage of display variants) and LTDXT (Display Variant Texts) entries of the old program to the new program. I checked that all entries in LTDX of the old program now exist for the new program too. When I execute the program, only the global ALV display variants are available for selection i.e all display variants that start with u2018/u2019. The user specific variants are not available although all entries in LTDX and LTDXT for the user display are in the respective tables
Thanks for respondinding.

Thanks Satyasuresh. I used a similar program that copies variant entries from tables ltdx and ltdxt for a source program to new entries in the same table for the target program.
parameters report like ltdx-report obligatory.
parameters report2 like ltdx-report obligatory.
select * into table lt_ltdx from ltdx
                where report = report.
select * into table lt_ltdxt from ltdxt
                where report = report.
loop at lt_ltdx.
    lt_ltdx-report = report2.
    modify ltdx from lt_ltdx..
endloop.
loop at lt_ltdxt.
    lt_ltdxt-report = report2.
    modify ltdxt from lt_ltdxt..
endloop.

Sale set,prepack and display

Hi,
Can anyone tell me about the difference between display,sale set and prepack in IS retail.
would appreciate if some practical examples are given

Hi,
Article comprising several components structured as a bill of material / article called as Structured Articles, namely; Sets, Prepacks and Display.
Sets: Sets are usually handled in one of the following ways:
(a) As sales sets: The components are packaged together and can often also be sold individually.
Example: Toothpast with Tooth Brush
(b) As price sets: Price sets are formed only by the assignment of a joint sales price. This price is normally lower than the total sales price of each of the components which can always also be sold individually. The components are not packaged together.
Example: Hamper / Three pieces of Soaps / Biscut Packet
Display:Group of single articles or variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. The components are grouped together by the manufacturer or vendor.
In the wholesale trade, displays are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at display level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store.
Example: Candy bars and Pantyhose displays
Prepacks: Group of variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. Unlike a display, the components must belong to the same merchandise category as the prepack itself. They can be grouped together by the retailer as well as by the manufacturer or vendor.
In the wholesale trade, prepacks are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at prepack level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store
Example: Shoe Prepack

How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

How can I set up Cinema Display as a main screen and leave my macbook pro as a second screen instead?

I learned that the Dock is positioned at the chosen edge of whatever Display is positioned farthest to that side. E.g. for the Dock to be positioned on the right side of the Cinema Display (instead of the right side of the MacBook), the Cinema Display must be oriented (by dragging) to the right of the MacBook monitor on the "Arrangement" tab of the Displays Preference Panel.
