Transaction variant vs screen variant

Hi.
Created a transaction variant. The variant has two screen variants. (for VA01). one for the main screen, and one for the sales overview screen.
If I click test for the screen variant, it is working fine as expected.
But if I click the test for the transaction variant, only screen 1 is working fine. Screen 2 is not. Instead it is showing the standard sap screen.
Do we activate the screen variants?
Thanks,

HI gemma deriada,
Check if you maintain only initial screen then the remaining standards will only trigger.

Transaction Variant and Screen Variant

Hi
I have created a transaction variant ZTX for transaction TX.
The First screen of transaction ZTX IS Screen 0100 for example.
The Screen variant is ZSVAR and only for the first screen of the transaction variant ZTX, which is created when creating the transaction variant.
Then, I activated the transaction variant to be a Standard Variant.
Now in my program, if I say,
1. Leave to screen 0100.
Then, it takes me to the initial screen of transaction ZTX but the effect of the transaction variant is not there.
But if i code it as
2. Leave to transaction TX.
I can see the effect of the transaction variant.
Why is this ?
More-over, I cannot code a " Leave to transaction" as I will lose a lot of history.
What could be the remedy ?
I am new to Transaction Variants and Screen Variants concepts.
Thanks in advance for your valuable inputs.
Kind Regards
Prasad

Hello Prasad,
Leave to transaction will be considered as a new dialog process, hence all memory will be cleared. Try look at the standard transaction TX whether it uses parameter ids on it screen fields. In your program, set these parameter ids with the last values you are working on, before you call "Leave to transaction".

Re: Unable to see the required Bus. transaction to define screen variant.

Hello Sap mates,
I am trying to define screen variant per business transaction, but i do not see the required business transaction (RKU3) in the drop down list.
Could somebody of you please help me with that.
Thank you.
Regards,
Pabbi.

Yes... It is not possible to see the Custom things in recording...
You have to enter the Custom Screen data into tables using UPDATE statements or some other way through your program.

Screen Variant Not working

Hi,
I have created one screen variant for screen for SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS screen 230.
It's getting called while i checked by debugging .
But its not working in ITS Template & in transaction also .
In SAPgui it's not working .
Is there any more setting for Screen variant apart from just save it & called in screen variant BADI .
Thanks,
SS

Hi
<u>This BADI as you can see by name is for Screen Variants.
BBP_SCREENVARIANT in this case.</u>
<b>Please read the following documentation to get the clear difference</b>
Transaction Variants and Screen Variants
Transaction variants can simplify transaction runs as they allow you to:
Preassign values to fields
Hide and change the 'ready for input' status of fields
Hide and change table control column attributes
Hide menu functions
Hide entire screens
In particular, hiding fields in connection with screen compression, and hiding screens, can result in greater clarity and simplicity.
Transaction variants are made up of a sequence of screen variants. The field values and field attributes for the individual screens found in transaction variants are stored in screen variants. Each of these variants is assigned to a specific transaction, can, however, also contain values for screens in other transactions if this is required by transaction flow. The transaction that the variant is assigned to serves as initial transaction when the variant is called.
There are both client-specific and cross-client transaction variants. All screen variants are cross-client, but may be assigned to a client-specific transaction variant.
A namespace exists for cross-client transaction variants and screen variants and both are automatically attached to the Transport Organizer. Client-specific transaction variants must be transported manually.
In principle, transaction and screen variants can be created for all dialog and reporting transactions. There are, however, certain Restrictions that apply to certain transactions, depending on their internal structure.
No transaction variants are possible with transactions already containing preset parameters (parameter transactions and variant transactions).
Screen variants
Screen variants allow you to simplify screen editing by:
Inserting default values in fields
Hiding and changing the ready for input status of fields
Hiding and changing the attributes of table control columns
A screen variant contains field values and attributes for exactly one screen. A screen variant can, howevever, be assigned to multiple transaction variants. Screen variants are always cross-client; they may, however, be assigned to a client-specific transaction. They can also be called at runtime by a program. The different possibilities for calling screen variants guarantee great flexibility of use.
For more information, see: Calling Screen Variants
A specific namespace has been designated for screen variants and they are automatically attached to the Change and Transport System.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

T-Code MIRO with assigned screen variants

Dear Experts,
We are using a BDC recording to call MIRO and send it to an agent via workflow using a z-table.
The customer wants the baseline date on this recording grey'ed out and the business area field required.
The baseline date is on the "PAYMENT" tab of MIRO and Business Area on the "DETAILS" tab.
I assigned three screen variants to a transaction variant and activated it. When I post via MIRO outside the BDC recording, everything works perfect.
However, with the BDC a SAP standard transaction with assigned screen variants doesnu2019t work?
How can I do it via BDC?

Hi Suresh,
FI user tell me, when she entry the incoming ivoice by T-Code MIRO,
she typed $1882 (TWD) amount in "Basic datea Tab", and typed Item amount $1882(TWD) (System Default Where User Entry Delivery Note),
but when she clicked clisimulate button,
the system procedure FI Document as below :
Debit : Accrued Accounts Payable : $1883 (TWD) <-- GR/IR Account
Credit : AP - Vendor 1 : $1882 (TWD)
Credit : Price difference-direct material $1 (TWD)
I have already checked that invoice data. The invoice amount is $1882(TWD),
but when user post fi document, the GR/IR Account Amount is $1883(TWD),
How did I know the GR/IR Account $1883(TWD) is how to produce?

Selection Screen Variant (optionally default) -I dont think it's possible!?

I have spent a lot of time looking at this issue - researching forums/sap help/on the system - so any help appreciated...
On the selection screen (for tx me59n) is it actually possible for users to set a variant as default on the selection screen? It's actually that I want "Test Run" to be defaulted.
This is the ideal scenario:
- The selection criteria variant is created centrally (or even individually by the user)
- The user can then optionally set this variant as their default selection criteria for the transaction
- Next time the user runs the transaction, the defualt variant is used
What I do not want is:
- User having to select the variant each time they run the transaction
- The variant always being default (it should only be default when user decides they want it as such)
Any ideas? I can't see that it's possible....?
thanks in advance,
Matt

I've been trying SHD0 alot, but doesnt seem to work - again, i've spent time reading and trying it out but with no luck.
This is how I'm doing it to try to default "Test Run" checkbox for ME59n
- Run transaction SHD0
- Input "ZDefault" into Transaction Variant field
- Click create
- ME59n loads
- I tick "Test Run" (which is what I want defaulting for the transaction)
- Click save
- It prompts me to create screen variant
- I input ZTEST_VARIANT and click save
- I get a pop-up box which I enter ZTEST_VARIANT to name field but dont make any other changes
- Get message saying ZTEST_VARIANT saved
- Click back to Transaction Variant screen
- Save it as a local object
- Get message saying "Trans Variant and Screen Variant Saved"
- Click back to initial SHD0 screen
- Click TEST to try it out.
- ME59n loads, but "Test Run" is not checked - the variant appears not to have been loaded at all.
I run ME59n independently and still nothing seems to get loaded when I run the transaction. Although the new screen variant is availbale in the variant list, which if I select it it works perfectly. But I want make it default??? How do I do it?
Any ideas what i'm missing?
Usually I can figure these things out pretty quickly, but this one has me stumped!
thanks
Matt

Screen variants--screen number and program

Hi,
I am a functional consultant and not familiar with coding/development.I needed some help with regards to creating a screen variant.
-->In which scenarios can one use a screen variant?
-->How do we find the screen number and program?I checked the' source' info too...all it gives me is the template details.But,i haven't been able to find the screen number and program.
Any inputs!
Trey

Hi,
The transaction code for screen variants is SHD0.
Generall screen varaints are used to chnage the screen display i.e. to add a new field/make the fields editable etc...
In SRM,for screen enhancements genrally some BADI's are provided but if not then screen variants is the next option to implement the same.Finally if screen varaint is not possible then you can do the changes in the relevant ITS templates.
The foll screen varaints are available in SRM:
Determine Screen Variants
Use
· Item data overview in the invoice without purchase order reference: Screen variant BBP_IV_NON_PO
Method GET_SCREENVARIANT_INV
· Item data overview in the invoice with purchase order reference: Screen variant BBP_IV

Screen Variants disabled for FB50,FB60,FB70

Hello All,
The screen variants for FB50 FB60 FB70 disabled. These vairants can be selected as Edit --> Screen variant --> Select screen variant.
When any user executes transaction he gets some field missing (table control setting set as basic settings) and when he try from the above option for the desired screen then also screen remains same. It doesn't change
Previously it was not the case. previously when user executes these trasnaction screen was coming correctly.
Many users facing this issue.
If anyboday faced similer kind of issue then request you to please share your inputs.
Thanks & regards,
Prashant

Hi Prashant,
Please refer to notes 546889 and 186961.
if user is calling transaction FB*0 the first time no screen variant
for items is selected. So in order to assign a user to a screen variant,
the user has to switch the tree on (SHIFT+F1).
In the folder 'Screen variants for items' the user has to choose your
'default' variant by a double click. After clicking on the button
'Refresh Tree' this screen variant is saved in the table TFBUF, which
contains the personalizations for ENJOY transaction. This table is
always read by starting transaction FB*0. Because of the user
personalization with table TFBUF the SET/GET-Parameters SCRVAR & STV are
not used in the FI-Enjoy transactions. It's the enjoy and personlization
system design that always the last selected screen variant of the user
is used by starting transaction FB*0 and not a default one.
But I can suggest you a modification, for setting your default screen
variant in FB*0 with the value of parameter SCRVAR until the user will
chosse another screen variant in the tree. Furthermore this default
variant is set if user is executing 'Reset screen variant' under
EDIT -> Screen variant. You can find the program changes of this
modification below:
Because it is only possible to set standard for transaction variants and
not for screen variants and due to user personalization goal of the
enjoy transaction It cannot change this system behaviour during
maintenance.
Here is the program code for this modification:

Screen variants for Header details info

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement to use Screen variants for the header related details to default values in FB50 and use Account assignment template for line item related details.
We can create the screen variants in FB50 by right click on "screen variants for item" folder and select Create Screen variants in Screen variants. Even if i follow the alternate path to create screen variants in SHD0, and add it in the Tree of FB50, i still am not able to get the header details after choosing the created screen variant.
Can someone help me to achieve defaulting the header information in FB50 using screen variant and tell me how can we use account assignment template after defaulting the header data?
Thanks,
Sindhu

Hi Bill,
Yes, There are ways to disable these links. Since, You are in SRM40 (Think There is SRM40/EBP(SRM Server 50)only), you should be able to use BADU BBP_SC_MODIFY_UI to hide them which is simple.
Regarding Ship-to/Performance Location, Use Doc Change BADI to read storage location address and pass it onto Ship-to/Performance Location. We have done many times in the past.
SAP standard screen variants for the Shopping view is very limited. But, you can develop you own screen variants in SHDO and use Screen Variant BADI to trigger your customs. We had used this and is pretty good. No hassle of HTML changes / maintaining them every upgrade.
Thanks,
Jay

Screen Variant is not reflecting same value in different transactions.

Hi Guys,
I need a help, it is urgency.
I done the screen variant for one filed is mandatory and another field in display mode (gray color) for transaction (FPR1 in ISU). After I done the screen variant the standard transaction code (FPR1) showing same result, what I am expecting.
But the problem is, I want to maintain or enter the values from CIC front office screen.
Once I confirm the BP and select the contract account to create install plan (FPR1), here it is open with standard view, which is not displayed with screen variant changes.
What should i check in that case. I already checked with
T.code : EWFC, EWBC.
Thanks in advance. Your guidance is appreciated
Regards,
Venkat.

Hi,
Even if you group valuation/view currency is the same as controlling area currency, the system will still show the message above. SAP need you to acknowledge that you're now costing for different valuation than your operation (legal valuation).
Note: Normally we execute sales order costing for group valuation in the background. You can read note 1819102 on how to remove that warning message when costing via background.

Screen variant not working when assigned to transaction variant in SHd0

Dear All,
User requires tax code column for line items in MIRO to be made non-editable. I am using SHD0 transaction for the same. I am able to make the column grey-off by creating screen variant. The program is SAPLMR1M and screen number 6310. When tested individually thru SHD0 the variant is working perfect. But it is not working when assigned to a transaction variant. Any clues on the same would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance
Komal

Hi,
Try to record again for the whole set of screens instead of doing that for the individual tax screen and only for the tax screen make the required field disable.
Once done and saved, you can see all the screens variants in the transaction variant.
Use the Change WITH PROCESSING OPTION.
Hope this solves your problem

Cannot select the newly created Screen variant in ENJOY transactions.

Hello All,
I have created a screen variant for a specific requirement from the client in transaction SHD0.

Go to FB50 at above left hand side will see Tree On option button. Click on that you will see Screen vairants for items option with drop down object. Simply click on that now select your desired screen variant by double clicking applied.
I hope this may help you to solve your issue. If you have any doubts feel free to ask.

How to transport a transaction variant and her related screen variant?

Hello to every SDN member,
I am looking to transport a transaction variant and the related screen variants.
I read the help and I am concerned by the paragraph about the Client-specific transaction variants because when I created the transaction variant, no dialog box appeared.
In the paragraph about the Client-specific transaction variants, it is told to transport the variants with the Transport function but the problem is that I cannot find it. How can I use this function? It is not in the toolbar and not in the differents menus.
Can you please give me the solution to transport the transaction variant and the screen variant?
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards,
Matthieu Chérier

Hi,
You can transport a variant by :
1. Running the program RSTRANSP. Mention your program and variant name there.
2.Create a variant with prefix 'CUS&'. This type of variants will be automatically transported to target system through transport request.
3.Go to Se38 --> Input report name --> Select Variants
On the screen --> Go to Utilities -> Select transport request
--> Provide the program name and Variant --> Assign Transport request to variant. Then release the transport.
Regards.
