Transaction Variant for VA03 in SAP 4.6C – Few Questions

Hi Friends,
To block ‘Net Value’ from being visible for specific users, for VA03 transaction, we have created a variant YVA03. Further, we had created a new transaction ZVA03 and activated this with the variant YVA03.
Now, we observed, for the variant to work, we have to set the ‘variant’ field under VOV8 (sales document->Transaction flow) with‘NO_VARIANT’option.
Why is this selection required? Will this have any impact on the working of standard transactions VA01/VA02 etc. (though we didn’t observe any)
Also, is there a way we can activate custom transaction ZVA03 for all sales document types in one step i.e. without going through the task of setting every sales order type with ‘NO_VARIANT’ selection?
Lastly, we are working on SAP 4.6C. Are there any known version limitations on the working of transaction variants for VAXX transactions?
Please share your valuable inputs.
Regards,
Jagan

Hello,
Try adding the correct parameters in the user parameter settings in SU3/System->User profile->Own data.
STC Transaction variants: Transaction
STV Transaction variants: Variant

How to create Transaction Variant for T code F-30

Hi
I want to create a Transaction variant for T code F-30, so that user can't change the currency field and put any value in rate. Currency should be always in USD.
Any input will be heighly appriciated.
Regards
Shiv

Hi,
In that case you can use transaction SHD0 to create a transaction variant for F-30 with its screen variant for screen# 122. And you also want to creat a so called Variant Transaction Z-something for F-30 using the mentioned transaction variant. You restrict users to use that Z-something. For other unrestricted process, the system will still cal F-30. Here is the documentation:

Problem in SHD0 about creation of Transaction Variant for VA02

Hi All,
My goal is to create a Transaction Variant for VA02 Variant that doesn't display the "Object Status" button under the page "Status" in the Header of Sales Orders.
To do so, I created a Transaction Variant in SHD0 (named ZTEST_VA02), the creation process creates the Screen Variants too, and i named them ZTEST_VA02_<dynpro_number>.
The Dynpro where I can found the button to hide is the SAPMV45A / 4305, so the Screen Variant Name is ZTEST_VA02_4305.
My problem is that If I test the single Screen Variant (ZTEST_VA02_4305) using the button in SHD0, I can see the whole transaction with my modify (the "Object Status" button is hidden), but testing the entire Transaction Variant ZTEST_VA02 I cannot see the modify and the Button is pretty visible.
I even tried to create a Transaction with Variant, in SE93, that launches the transaction VA02 with the variant ZTEST_VA02, and I tried to assign the Transaction Variant I created as a Standard Variant, in both cases the problem is that the modify doesn't appear to be applied.
For me this is a real mistery because If the Screen Variant is right (It works) I would expect to see that even the Transaction Variant is correct.
Does Anyone have (or have ever had) this problem?
Thank You very much for your attention.
Regards,
Claudio
PS: I forgot to mention that I'm working on SAP ECC 6.0

Transaction Variant for VA01

Hi All,
I am able to create transaction variant for transaction code MM01, XD01 and XK01 successfully. But i am unable to create transaction variant for VA01.
And also some times i am getting error message "SAP Object SCV1(short text of variant) cannot be assigned to package ZXXX". Can you pls let me know why i am getting this error and why i am unable to create transaction variant for VA01 successfully.
Thanks,
Raju

Hi,
There is no difference in creation of the transaction variant for VA01/02. But the way it works is different. It works at order type level instead of t-code level. You have to create the variant in SHD0 and assign the same in order type customization.
Alternatively you can populate the field TVAK-VARIANT with the transaction variant name in MV45AFZZ subroutine USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELDS_TO_VBAK/USEREXIT_FIELD-MODIFY. With out this it wont work. Just try to change the TVAK-VARIANT value in debug mode and see if it works fine. Surpricingly it works fine if you individually execute the variant.
The error you mentioned might be because you might have given one of the screen variant name not starting with Z or Y.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Transaction variant for SM37

Hi all,
I am trying to create a transaction variant for the "job overview" screen - this is the screen after you have selected the list of jobs. I have the deactivated some items "menu functions" - program SAPLBTCH - status - JOV_STATUS, but there are not working when I test these.
Any ideas ?

Hi JC,
This is how it works (sorry for the German :-):
*   Pruefen der Loesch-Berechtigung,
*   Eigene Jobs duerfen ohne weitere Pruefung gelscht werden.
*   Jobs anderer Benutzer drfen nur gelscht werden, wenn Lsch-
*   berechtigung bzw. Batchadministratorberechtigung vorliegt.
IF tbtco-sdluname <> sy-uname.
    AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_BTCH_JOB'
      ID 'JOBGROUP' FIELD '*'
      ID 'JOBACTION' FIELD 'DELE'.
    IF sy-subrc > 0.
      PERFORM check_batch_admin_privilege.
      IF batch_admin_privilege_given EQ btc_no .
        PERFORM deq_tbtco_entry
          USING
            jobname jobcount retcode.
        MESSAGE s125
          WITH
            tbtco-jobname sy-uname.
        RAISE no_delete_authority.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
... and check_batch_admin_privilege is...
*      FORM CHECK_BATCH_ADMIN_PRIVILEGE                               *
* Prüfe, ob Benutzer Batchadministratorberechtigung hat. Diese Routine*
* setzt die globale Variable BATCH_ADMIN_PRIVILEGE.                   *
FORM check_batch_admin_privilege.
AUTHORITY-CHECK
    OBJECT 'S_BTCH_ADM'
        ID 'BTCADMIN' FIELD 'Y'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    batch_admin_privilege_given = btc_yes.
ELSE.
    batch_admin_privilege_given = btc_no.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM. " CHECK_BATCH_ADMIN_PRIVILEGE.
So, if you do not give up the S_BTCH_ADM to be able to use the S_BTCH_JOB job_action 'DELE', then you cannot.
But it works like this for many of the S_BTCH_JOB checks, so perhaps the support users do not really need the S_BTCH_ADM?
As a compensating control, you can consider SAP note 850885 with some organizational measures (e.g. training) around it.

Transaction Variant For Me21.

Can i create a transaction variant for transaction me21.
if yes, please tell me the procedure.
please help.
its urgent.

hi
good
i think you can do it , because Transaction Variants to make fields Mandatory, Hidden or Display. Also applicable to screens and tabstrips.
You can hide unwanted screens and fields in any of the standard SAP programs without changing any of the standard programs. Additional features such as making the variant as default on the standard SAP transaction code is only available as of 4.6x.
In 4.6c, you can default your transaction variant as the standard variant. (SHD0 - Edit -> Activate/Deactivate as standard variant)
thanks

On saving Transaction Variant for MM02 you cannot exit out

I created a transaction variant for MM02. The first problem that occured was an authorization message when I click saved. It saved the changes but then reported that I was not authorized to access MM02. Which I was not because I had authorization to run the new transaction variant. SAP solved that problem with note 529116. Now I can save and get a correct message: 'Your changes have been saved'.
But now the problem is I cannot exit out of the program because the Back and Exit buttons do not work. Has anyone else encountered this problem after implementing note 529116.

I too facing the similar problem when assigning the screen variant to transaction variant.
screen number where the 'Obj.Status' button is ' 4456
if executing the screen variant alone , it works perfectly,
once i assing to the transaction variant and test, the 'Obj.Status' button is visible.
does anyone got the solution?

Transaction Variant for a standard report without transaction code

Hi,
I want to create a transaction variant for a executable report. The report has some subscreens 100, 110 etc. I want to hide the subscreen through transaction variant. So I have created a transaction code (Y*) for it and then tried creating transaction variant using SHD0 transaction. But the fields are not listed to choose invisible or other options. Please advice

The fields are listed when you leave each recorded screen. You have the flag "do not display the screen". It's strange you don't have anything, are you sure you started the recording? (you enter the transaction code, the transaction variant, you click the Create button and the screens are displayed and recorded)
Which transaction is it?
A little remark (about your last posts): forum rules ask people to give points, it's a way to say thank you. Otherwise, people won't help you anymore. It's not a black and white logic : don't give points only when your problem is solved. Give 2 or 5 points to thank people (or 0 if it's out of context). Thanks.

Transaction variant for VA02 is not working for few fields

Hi All,
I have created a transaction variant for VA02. Made the necessary code changes for populating the variant name in MV45AFZZ. It is working fine for all the screens and all the fields except for second screen of VA02.
First screen - Enter sales order number.
Second screen - Overview screen.
In second screen, I have disabled all the screen fields. When I run the variant, all fields are disabled except sold-to party, ship-to party and create sold to party ICON. All these fields belongs to screen 4701.
In the transaction variant I can see that these fields screen attributes set to output only. I don't see anything different for these fields compared to other fields.
First I thought it is because of mandatory fields. But some other mandatory fields are disabled after my changes. Why is this happening only for these 3 fields (Only for screen 4701 I can say).
Surprisingly, if I do any action like enter/select other tab, these fields are getting disabled.
Your inputs on this are highly appriciated.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Transaction Variant for T. Code - FBL1N

Hi,
I want to create a Transaction Variant for T. Code - FBL1N.
Actually, My requirement is that I want to give a Dynamic Selection "Reconciliation acct-XXXXXX"... After Create the variant for this, i want to disable the Dynamic Selections Icon. I want both things at a time..
Please tell...
Regards....

Hi,
Even though question is already marked as answered, I think that Pince Kummar requirement was not fulfilled.
Those are the steps that you should execute:
1. Create a Selection Variant:
In FBL1N transaction, enter your required field values, and click on the save icon. Maintain variant attributes as you need. Assign to your selection variant a name beginning with CUS&. With that prefix you specify that is a customer system variant.
2. Assign the created selection variant as default for tcode FBL1N.
Go to SE93 and change FBL1N, on "Start with variant" field select your created CUS& variant and save.
At this time you can notice that FBL1N transaction always begin with your selection variant.
3. If you also want to disable Dynamic selections function, you should create a Standard transaction variant.
Go to SHD0, enter the transaction code name (FBL1N). In the Standard Variants tab enter a name and choose create function. Automatically FBL1N selection image will be showed, click back button to return. In the screen that now is showed, choose "Menu Functions" and enter Program "RSSYSTDB" and gui status "%_00" and click Menu Functions, then in the tree that come out, find and select Dyamic Selections function (%_00->Edit->DYNS), next click disable button and then continue button.
Now you return to Transaction variants maintenance screen. Make sure that in deactive functions list, for Dynamic selections function is only active "For Transaction" check box. Now save and activate your transaction variant.

Transaction Variant for a Custom Report

Hi Folks...
I am trying to create a transaction variant for a custom report...and i am unable to do it. Have any one tried that before and got it worked..please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
Rajeev

hi,
i also used a different approach based on the requirement. this might be helpful to someone:
requirement: to make one of the parameter fields as display only. other users should not be allowed to edit this field & make it modifiable again.
_solution1:_ in the program, assign the parameter field to a modification id and make it protected (screen-input=0).
limitation: needs program modification incase there is a future requirement to change the parameter field value.
solution2: [1]create & save a variant and protect that parameter field. [2] go to SE93 & create a report transaction, put your saved variant in the 'start with variant'. [3] go to SU21 & create an authorization object for controlling the access to the variant. [4] ask your basis to attach this authorization object to the user id responsible for maintaining the variants for that program. [5] add a logic to check the authorization object in your program whenever the user tries to save or delete variants.
remarks: in production, make sure the authorization object & the update profile are transported. create also the same variant name as what you have defined in your report transaction code.

Transaction Variant for tcode SP01

Hi All,
I am trying to create the transaction variant for the tcode SP01 by using tcode SHD0.
Steps I followed are:-
1. Create tcode ZSP01
2. In SHD0, tcode as ZSP01 and hit the Create
3. Control goes to Screen SP01 inital selection screen
I need to change 'created by' as display only and cannot get the screen attributes.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Azhar

Thanks for the quick reply.
I found that SP01 is a module pool program with screen 2000 then I should be able to create the transaction variant.
I tried creating the tcode with your suggested authorization object getting warning message 'Check object has been maintained(Press enter to reset)' and when I press enter the auth object field will get reset.
Thanks for your quick response and suggestions.
