User specific settings through SHD0

Hi
I have make some fields disabled for editing. I have done this through SHD0. Now i have to keep this setting for some specific users.
Please guide for this .
Regards
Raksha

Hi,
After you have created a transaction variant in SHD0,
assign a transaction for that transaction variant in SE93 or from SHD0->Goto-> Create variant transaction.
Once you have created a transaction, assign the authorization object to the transaction. This will restrict only the users to view this transaction varriant...others will not able to execute this transaction...
Hope this suffices your requirement...
Let me know icase of issues
Reward if useful

Transaction SE16: Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working for ALL tables

Hi Guru’s,
I have an issue in Transaction SE16, Field selection (User-Specific Settings) is NOT working in Tables (ALL tables).
Following is the screenshot attached for your kind reference,
That is in the initial screen of transaction SE16 if I choose Filed Name or Filed Label only the technical details (Field Names) are appearing and not the descriptions like Client, Purchasing Doc, and Company Code Doc. Category Document Type etc…
Right now I am using ECC6 and EHP7 SAP system.
Please help me to resolve this issue by implementing any OSS note or User Role creations or any technical changes required in system.
Hope the requirement is clear and in case need any clarification please revert back.
NOTE: Right now in Development System we don’t have any successful user to compare the settings.
Regards,
Kumar.S

Thanks Patra.
Even I searched in SAP portal and couldn't able to find the relevant OSS note.
Following is my BASIS team response,
"Only you can view Table Field values from higher release"
Can you suggest / guide on this comment as well.
Looking forward to your speedy response.

User specific settings for message ME161

All SAP Gurus,
Is it possible to have user specific settings for message like ME161?
We want the message ME161 to be displayed as warning message to one user and the same message to be displayed as an erorr message to another user.
Is it possible?
Regards,

hi,
In addition to the above data:
Messages are defined like this:
Version AG No. Text TYPE
Normally, in std case,
Version will be always 00 for system defined messages....
Now if you wanna make the the same message as authorised,
then copy this exsisting message....
While copying system will ask for version, here enter it it Z*
Now on the other hand make the other settings for user/user grp in SU01 and here set the user parameter as MSV(THIS IS MUST)....
and then try...

ABAP Editor. Flag meanings from: User-specific settings - 'pattrn' tab

If you go through this path once you are in the ABAP editor (ECC 6.0):
utilities -> settings
Does anybody know how the flags from the 'pattrn' tab work? They are about patterns in Function modules and Class generators.
I cannot find anything through F1 help or SDN.
Best,
Cristian

You might be aware of the "Edit -> Pattern" functionality in the ABAP editor. The settings you are referring to influence some details, e.g. whether OTHERS will be included in the exceptions list when inserting function module patterns.
Play around with the settings to see the effect.

User specific settings

Hi Gurus,
I have configured the displayed fields in the Table area of Planning board though Planning board profile configuration. The desired columns are visible in table area in CJ2C. But then I have change the displayed fields from field selection in Planning board and have saved the user settings.
Can some one let me know how to remove this user setting ?

Hi,
Open the project in the Planning board and use the option "Undo User setttings". This should solve your issue.
Check this and revert.

Deploying Printers with User Specific Settings via Group Policy

Good Morning All,
We are getting ready to switch our print server over and would like to find an easier way to update everyone's printer list. The issue we are running into is that we have a few large copiers that use a user id number to validate any print jobs. Is
there a way to set that up in GPO so that it will give the correct code directly? I cannot find anywhere that I can adjust the printer preferences.
Thanks,
Brent

Hi
So you just want to update the TCP port with the new IP instead of deploying new drivers from the server?
Hope this helps. Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Strange user-specific display problem

I use my MacBook with an external AG Neovo F-419 19"screen. I have one screen at work and another at home. It works beautifully except for one strange phenomenon: when I log into my account and watch the screen during start up, whereas it starts out having nice even-contrast graphics with a good color range, as the boot progresses it goes through two changes. At the first change the color balance changes, probably reflecting a calibration that I have done in the past kicking in from the Display Preferences info. But then it goes through a second change in which the contrast becomes extreme and the color range perhaps reduced and this then stays and I cannot reverse it by changing the settings in Display Prefs (I can alter the contrast, brightness, color balance etc. but I can't restore the normal color and contrast whatever I do). Bizarrely, however, I can restore things to normal just by rotating the screen and then Reverting to normal orientation.
This is user specific as it doesn't happen if I login as another users and it reappaears when I log back in (andagain gets undone by rotating the screen). It seems not to be a function of a particular Display Profile as I have tried changing them and deleting, ditto for the Prefs file in my User Library. Moreover, the external display does not need to be connected - it happens when I use the Macbook on it's own, which is very annoying because then I cannot rotate the screen to get rid of it!
If anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful as I do not want to transfer thousands of files into a new User account (I should say that I thnk this problem first arose in Tiger when I had another machine and it has migrated along with the User settings!!). Help!!

Hi,
I think you can only display a maximum message of 128 characters. There is also another function module SCCA_TH_POPUP which also has a message size of max 128 characters.

How to set user specific Layout for executing IW38/IW39 report.

Dear Experts,
We have 10 users seperatly, For executing IW38/39 transaction they have maintained seperate layouts for executing the reports. While saving layout they have saved the layout as 'user specific' Now some body has chage the settings.
After changing the setting all are getting same layout.
Please suggest how to set user specific layout. When user enter the IW38/39 report by default he should get his layout.
Thanks in advance.

Create Variant using SHD0 and with Group and assign to particular user's
Here is the steps
Creating a Variant Group
1. Open transaction SHD0, enter the transaction code, and press enter.
2. Choose the Standard Variants tab page, and then the sub tab page Variant Groups, and enter a group name, such as GROUP_GEN
3. Choose Create. Enter a short text on the Maintain Variant Group window that appears and save the variant group.
Assigning Users
Once you have created the variant group and the relevant transaction variants with screen variants, you now need to assign users to the variant group as follows
1. Return to the Standard Variants tab page, Variant Groups sub tab page.
2. Enter the name of a user that you want to assign to this variant group, and choose Assign. A message that this user was successfully assigned to the variant group appears in the status bar. If you choose a where-used list for users, this user is displayed in the user list.
3. However, for the screen variants of the variant group that you created above to be displayed for the user, you first need to select Set Proposal. The user is assigned to the group and the associated transactions are started with the corresponding variants only once you choose the Set Proposal function.
You can use this procedure of user assignment for all other users that you want to add to the variant group
Hope this helps.
Thanks

User-specific break-point

Hi
while debugging whether it is possible to have a <b>user-specific breakpoint???</b> if so gimme idea how to make it???
Thanks in advance

ABAP Debugger
The ABAP Debugger is an integrated test tool within the ABAP Workbench. You use it to check the program logic and to find errors in the source code of an ABAP program. In the Debugger, you can step through the source code of a program. The running program is interrupted after each step, allowing you to check its processing logic and the results of individual statements.
As of Release 6.10, you can also run Business Server Pages (BSP) in the debugging mode. You can also display and set breakpoints here. Business Server Pages can be displayed in the Object Navigator when you select an appropriate application under BSP Application.
Features
The Debugger provides an efficient means of identifying errors in ABAP programs. It contains the following functions:
Ways of starting the Debugger
Choosing different views
Choosing different execution options in the Debugger
Displaying source code in the Debugger
Setting and deleting breakpoints
Setting and deleting watchpoints
Stopping a program at a particular statement or event
Displaying and changing field contents at runtime
Displaying ABAP Objects and references
Displaying and positioning strings
Setting and deleting database locks
Opening the ABAP Editor, or Object Navigator
System settings and runtime warnings
Starting the Debugger
There are two possible strategies for starting the Debugger in the ABAP Workbench:
By setting breakpoints then running the program
By running the program in debugging mode.
Setting Breakpoints
A breakpoint is a signal in a line of code that tells the ABAP runtime processor to interrupt the program at that line and start the ABAP Debugger. A distinction is made between static and dynamic breakpoints. For further information about the different types of breakpoints and how to use them, refer to Breakpoints.
Running a Program in Debugging Mode
You can start the Debugger without previously having set breakpoints. This is the best procedure to use when you want to test a program right from the beginning. It is also useful if you do not know the program very well and therefore are not sure where best to set breakpoints. You can start the Debugger as follows:
From the Object Navigator Select a report or transaction and program and choose Program Test Debugging.
From the ABAP Editor Choose Program  Execute  Debugging (or the Debugging pushbutton).
From any screen Choose System  Utilities  Debug ABAP.
From any screen Enter " /h " in the command field.
Checking System Programs for Errors
To check a program or program component that is part of the ABAP Workbench (for example, the Screen Painter), you must use the system Debugger. To start the system Debugger, choose
System  Utilities  Debug system from any screen. To stop the system Debugger, choose Debugger  Debugging off.
Displaying Program Attributes
You can display the attributes Fixed point arithmetic, System program and Unicode checks active of the program that has just been executed by choosing Goto  Further Information  Program Attributes.
Display Modes in the Debugger
When you are debugging a program, there are various display modes that you can use. All of the display modes have the same structure. The top part of the screen displays an extract of the program source code. The bottom part displays the information specifically available in that display mode. There are also pushbuttons on the screen allowing you to switch to the most frequently-used display modes.
Display Modes Available Using Pushbuttons
Fields The scrollable field display contains the contents of up to eight fields. The contents of the three most important system fields are always displayed. This is the default display mode in the Debugger. See also Processing Fields
Table Displays the contents of an internal table. This mode allows you to display and edit the entries in an internal table. See also Processing Internal Tables
Breakpoints A scrollable display containing up to 30 breakpoints. Next to each breakpoint is a counter. You can also delete breakpoints in this display. See also Managing Dynamic Breakpoints
Watchpoints You can set a watchpoint for a field so that the program is interrupted whenever the value of that field changes. This display mode contains a list of watchpoints, the fields and programs to which they are assigned, the current values of the fields, and the conditions upon which the watchpoint is activated. See also Setting Watchpoints
Calls This mode displays the current sequence of events, and the sequence of calls up to the current breakpoint. The last active call is displayed at the top of the list; previous calls are listed in reverse chronological order. When an event (for example, START-OF-SELECTION) concludes, it is deleted from the display.
Overview This mode displays the structure of the program. It lists its events, subroutines, and modules, and shows which sections belong to which events. It also displays the section currently being processed.
Settings This mode displays the current Debugger settings. You can change the settings by selecting or deselecting various options. For further information, refer to Settings and Warnings
Other Display Modes
You can access other display modes by choosing Goto  Display data object.
Single field Displays the contents and technical attributes of a field.
Structured
field Displays the components of a structure, along with their contents and attributes. If you double-click a component, the system displays detailed information for it.
Strings Display the content and current length of the string. You can also display part of the content by means of offset and length.
Internal table Displays the type, line numbers and contents of an internal table.
Object Displays the structure of an ABAP Object.
For further information on these displays, refer to Displaying Attributes and Displaying ABAP Objects
Breakpoints
Instead of starting an ABAP program directly in the Debugger, you can also debug a program by creating one or more breakpoints in the program. A breakpoint is a signal at a particular point in the program that tells the ABAP runtime processor to interrupt processing and start the Debugger. The program runs normally until the breakpoint is reached.
There is also a special kind of breakpoint called a watchpoint. When you use watchpoints, the Debugger is not activated until the contents of a particular field change. For further information, refer to Watchpoints.
Breakpoint Variants
The Debugger contains different breakpoint variants:
Static The BREAK-POINT statement in an ABAP program. Static breakpoints are not normally user-specific. However, you can make them user-specific.
Directly-set
dynamic breakpoints Can be set in the ABAP Editor or the Debugger. Dynamic breakpoints are always user-specific, and are deleted when you log off from the R/3 System.
Breakpoint
at statement The Debugger stops the program directly before the specified statement is executed.
Breakpoint
at subroutine The Debugger stops the program directly before the specified subroutine is called.
Breakpoint at function module The Debugger stops the program directly before the specified function module is called.
Breakpoint at method The Debugger stops the program directly before the specified method is called.
Breakpoints at system exceptions The Debugger stops the program directly after a system exception, that is, after a runtime error has been intercepted.
Use
Static Breakpoints
Static breakpoints are not normally user-specific. Once a user has inserted a BREAK-POINT statement in an ABAP program, the system always interrupts the program at that point. You should only use static breakpoints during the development phase of an application. You should set static breakpoints whenever more than one programmer is working on the same program and you always want to stop the program in the same place.
Dynamic Breakpoints
Dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. You should, therefore, use them when you only want the program to be interrupted when you run it yourself. All dynamic breakpoints are deleted when you log off from the R/3 System.
Dynamic breakpoints are more flexible than static breakpoints, because you can deactivate or delete them at runtime. They have the following advantages:
You do not have to change the program code
You can set them even when the program is locked by another programmer
You can define a counter (for example, only activate the breakpoint after it has been reached five times).
Special Dynamic Breakpoints
Special dynamic breakpoints are useful when you want to interrupt a program directly before a particular ABAP statement, a subroutine, or an event, but do not know exactly where to find it in the program code. Event here is used to refer to the occurrence of a particular statement, for
example, or calling up a method. Special dynamic breakpoints are user-specific. You can only set them in the Debugger.
Transferring Breakpoints to HTTP and Update Sessions
If an HTTP or update session is called from a Logical Unit of Work (LUW), new work processes are started for these new sessions. Breakpoints that were defined beforehand in the calling LUW are copied to these sessions where they can be displayed under breakpoints.
If, for example, the update module func is called via CALL FUNCTION func IN UPDATE TASK, the new work process is displayed in a second window if Update debugging was selected under Settings in the debugging mode. All the breakpoints that were set in the calling LUW can then be processed here.
Static Breakpoints
You should only use static breakpoints during the development phase of an application. You must remove them from your program before you transport it.
Setting Breakpoints
To set a static breakpoint, use the ABAP statement BREAK-POINT . Place the breakpoint in the line at which you want to interrupt the program.
program RSDEBUG_01.
if SY-SUBRC <> 0.
break-point.
endif.
When you run the program, the runtime processor interrupts it when the breakpoints occur. You can number your breakpoints to make them easier to identify ( BREAK-POINT 1, BREAK-POINT 2 ).
Static breakpoints are not normally user-specific. The program is, therefore, always interrupted as soon as the runtime processor reaches the line containing the breakpoint. The program is interrupted regardless of the user who executes it.
However, you can set user-specific static breakpoints using the BREAK statement followed by your user name. For example, if you use the statement BREAK SMITH , the program is only interrupted when user Smith runs it. Although user-specific breakpoints appear in the program code, they are not active when other users run the program. You should, however, be careful if an application is being used by several users with the same name.
Deleting Breakpoints
Since static breakpoints apply to all users, you must remove them from the program once you have finished testing it. In the ABAP Editor, you can find breakpoints quickly by choosing Utilities  Global search. You can also use the Extended Program Check to find them.
If you do not remove static breakpoints from your program, they will be transported to your production system. This could cause serious problems in the production system.
Dynamic Breakpoints
You can set up to 30 dynamic breakpoints without changing the program code. Dynamic breakpoints can be set either in the ABAP Editor or directly in the Debugger.
Setting Dynamic Breakpoints in the ABAP Editor
You can set dynamic breakpoints in the ABAP Editor regardless of whether you are in display or change mode. You can also set breakpoints directly from within the Debugger at runtime. To set a dynamic breakpoint in the ABAP Editor:
1. Position the cursor on the line of the source code at which you want to set the breakpoint.

Dynamic Breakpoints
You can set up to 30 dynamic breakpoints without changing the program code. Dynamic breakpoints can be set either in the ABAP Editor or directly in the Debugger.
Setting Dynamic Breakpoints in the ABAP Editor
You can set dynamic breakpoints in the ABAP Editor regardless of whether you are in display or change mode. You can also set breakpoints directly from within the Debugger at runtime. To set a dynamic breakpoint in the ABAP Editor:
1. Position the cursor on the line of the source code at which you want to set the breakpoint.
You can use this kind of dynamic breakpoint to interrupt a program directly before a function module is called.
Prerequisites
You must already be running the program in the Debugger.
Procedure
To set a breakpoint for a function module:
1. Choose Breakpoint  Breakpoint at  Function module...
2. Enter the name of the function module before which you want to interrupt the program. The system sets a breakpoint wherever the specified event, module pool, or subroutine occurs in the program code.
3. Choose ENTER.
Result
If you entered a valid function module name, the system confirms that the breakpoint has been set. If the function module exists in the system, the new breakpoint is added to the display list.
Breakpoints at System Exceptions
You can use this special form of dynamic breakpoint to interrupt a program immediately after a runtime error has occurred.
Prerequisites
You must already be running the program in the Debugger.
Procedure
To set a breakpoint at a system exception:
Choose Breakpoint  Breakpoint at  System exception.
Result
The system confirms the breakpoint. The breakpoint is added to the breakpoints displayed.
When a system exception is triggered, a warning triangle appears in the line containing the statement that caused it. If you double-click the warning triangle, the internal name of the runtime error appears.
Saving Breakpoints
If you want to leave the Debugger temporarily, you can save your dynamic breakpoints so that they are still active when you return to the Debugger within the same terminal session.
To save the breakpoints that you have set in the Debugger:
Choose Breakpoint  Save.
The system saves all of the breakpoints that you have set in the current program. These breakpoints will remain active until you either explicitly delete them or log off from the system.
You can also delete breakpoints that you have saved:
By deleting individual breakpoints from the display and then saving again. In this case, only your selected breakpoints will be deleted.
By choosing Breakpoint  Delete all. In this case, the system deletes all dynamic breakpoints.
Managing Dynamic Breakpoints
The ABAP Debugger provides a convenient user interface for managing breakpoints. To open the breakpoint display, choose Breakpoints, or, from the menu, Goto  Control debugging  Breakpoints.
Functions
This display mode contains the following functions for breakpoints:
Breakpoint Display
The scrollable breakpoint display contains up to 30 dynamic breakpoints. For breakpoints that you set directly, the program name and line number at which the breakpoint occurs are displayed. For special breakpoint forms, the list displays the statements, events, subroutines, and module calls at which the relevant breakpoints are set.
Counter
In the breakpoint display, you can specify a counter. When you use a counter, the breakpoint is not activated until it has been reached a specified number of times. For example, if you enter 5 for the counter, the breakpoint is not activated until it is reached for the fifth time. After the breakpoint has been activated, it remains so, and the counter no longer appears in the breakpoint display.
Deleting Breakpoints
Position the cursor on the breakpoint that you want to delete, and either double-click the line or choose Breakpoint  Set/delete. To delete all breakpoints, choose Breakpoint  Delete all.
Activating and Deactivating Breakpoints
Position the cursor on the breakpoint that you want to activate or deactivate and choose Breakpoint  Activate/deactivate.

How can I add an iPad to Apple Configurator without losing the user's settings, folders, etc?

When attempting to add an iPad that has already been in use (for some time) by a particular user into Apple Configurator, I end up having to either wipe the iPad entirely as if it is a new iPad, or restore the user's settings and configuration from iCloud during mini-setup. It seems to be one choice or the other.
Is there a way to add the "old" iPad into Apple Configurator for management purposes yet still be able to restore the user's settings from iCloud? That is - items like: folders, pictures, email settings, app data?

This isnt true. Connecting an unsupervised device to configurator and supervising it will wipe the device, there is no way around that. You can attempt an iCloud restore from here, but anything not backed up prior to supervising the device will be erased when supervising it. I have never tried to restore data from an unsupervised iPad so I have no clue if everything will come back.
Let me clarify... You can successfully restore an iCloud backup of an unsupervised iPad to a new (i.e. different) iPad and have it Supervised with data intact. The process below will allow Configurator to Supervise a device without wiping it when an iCloud backup from a different unsupervised iPad is restored to it.
Try it… Get 2 new unsupervised iPads… we'll call them iPad "A" and iPad "B." Take iPad "A" and install a few apps, take a few photos, change the background, create a new document in Pages, etc. Run an iCloud backup of iPad "A" using your Apple ID. This is our unsupervised backup of iPad "A."
Now take new unsupervised iPad "B" and start running through the setup assistant. When you get to the restore screen, choose to restore from iCloud backup. Log in with your Apple ID. Select the backup for iPad "A." The backup will restore and then the iPad will restart. Once it restarts, you get to a "Hello" screen on the iPad. At this point, plug the iPad into your Configurator computer. On the Prepare screen, turn Supervision ON and select "Don't restore backup." Click Prepare.
Configurator will not wipe the iPad. It will run through the supervision process but not wipe it. Once complete, you'll see that iPad "B" is now exactly the same as iPad "A", but if you go to Settings -> General -> Profiles on iPad "B" you will see a Supervision profile installed.
The key here is to use a different iPad from the originally backed up iPad. You can't restore the backup of iPad "A" to iPad "A" again and supervise it without wiping it. But you can take the backup of unsupervised iPad "A" and restore it to iPad "B" and retain apps, data, and settings of iPad "A" but with the Supervision profile.
Hope this clarifies things!

I see where your going with that. I dont have any way to reproduce this scenario in my environment, but I will take your word for it that this works. I have only ever plugged in an unsupervised device to configurator and gone through the setup, which always wipes the device. If your saying theres a way around that you should give that a shot OP.

Hi ,
My problem is still not resolved. I tried applying the people picker property and set a specific field(an email id field) to be available to only admins. Now the field is not visible to the normal users but only admins which is good but that email field
should be able to take normal users as wel as admin's email ID. currently due to the people picker property it only takes admin's ID and not normal user's ID - which is not as per expectation.
What this email ID field does is - when a normal user is logged in he/she wont see this field in that view. But when an admin logs in he/she can switch to admin view and see this field . The admin can put any user's ID in this field and pull out the required
resource's Time Report for modification.
Please let me know how do i overcome my problem. Detailed step description will be very helpfull .
As per Cameron's suggestion (add a rule on the "additional admin section") , i am not sure how exactly that is done. Would help a lot if i got to know how this works.

Guru
