Variant Selection.

I have copied the program for FBL1N tcode and created a new program named ZSAMP.
But i face a problem now. The report is working properly with the desired output. But when i select the variants on input selection screen all those variants that has been saved for standard fbl1n is getting displayed.
How to avoid this ?

Hi Siva,
i think during copying the program from standard one you have also copied variant that why they are coming in your Zprogram. please once again copy it from standard one but uncheck the check box of variant while coping it(While coping it willask which which things you want to copy don't copy varaints).
hope this will help
let me know if still you hav problem

How do you retrieve PNP variant selection criteria?

I have a variant which I know are stored in the VARI table and I can retrieve almost all the contents of it using the function RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS.
But on the selection screen for my PNP report, there is a button labeled "Search Help" where you can enter more selection criterias, but as far as I can tell, these are not retrieved when using the aforementioned function.
I've tried looking for a function to retrieve these but I can't seem to find one, and I also haven't found a way to just read the CLUSTR and CLUSTD fields of the VARI table directly.
Does anyone know how to retrieve those selection criterias?

this is the right function
check if you don't have part of fields in several return tables
fields should be present if there is some value stored in variant for those fields

Variant selection missing in BEx Broadcaster

I've created workbook in BEx Analyzer (2004s). Workbook has selection screen. I also created variants for workbook. I then went into BEx Broadcaster to distribute workbook. I don't see option to select variant that I created in Analyzer under workbook precalculation tab. I see only option for variable assignment which ask me to create new assignment.
I've used information broadcasting 3.5. It has option to enter variant under pre-calculation tab. Any idea why this option is missing in 70 BEx Broadcaster.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Milind

TVARVC variables not showing in the variant selection

Hi,
My client want to use the TVARVC table to maintain the settlement period. So everymonth, the variant for the settlement run will retrieve the settlement period from this table.
I was following the instruction:
1. run tcode STVARVC
2. Create a new variable SETT_Period_Current
3. Put 9 as the value for now.
then I used the SE38 to create a variant. In the attribute screen, I put "T" in the field "Selection Variables". Then when I selected the dropdown list of the field "Name of Variables", I did not find the variable "SETT_Period_Current" in the list. I don't know what went wrong.
Can anyone shed some lights on this?
Thanks,
Ting

Variant selection for SIS Info Structures

Greetings all,
Our management is heavily reliant on using SIS for reporting key sales figures. We just implemented ECC 6.0, and a new Info Structure table was created.
Their main complaint is with the Get Selection Variant process. When the icon is clicked, the "Find Variant" popup window displays with the User Name. When User Name is cleared, all variants are displayed. They want to bypass the Find Variant popup, and go directly to the complete variant display grid. This is the behavior they see on other Info Structures that were defined.
I have tried searching in a number of places, including SCN, SDN, SAP Notes using various search terms, with no success.
Would someone kindly point me in the right direction?

Hai Robert,
In general the GET VARIANT will show all the variant list.
And it is not created for user specific.
Could you please give the Info structure fields and report to displays the field.
In case if you created the Variant please check with your ID is it asking for the User name.
Even with a user id input is there any change in the list of Variants?
Regards,
Mani

Variants - select options

i have a selection option for 'period' in a FI report . period value has to be dynamically changed everytime we run the report . low value of the period should be kept constant and the high value should dynamically change every time we run the report with the last period .

Hello deepthi..you should be able to do this by setting the dynamic date option when you save the variant...there should be some standard options available to do this!
Thanks!

New transaction - require variant selection to be disabled

hi all
I have created a new report transaction which runs an existing custom program of ours, with a specific variant which greys out most of the fields in the transaction (this is for the sake of security as the program is normally only ever run by a day end batch job).
However, when running the transaction, the user can simply change the variant to an existing one where the fields are not greyed out!
Is there any way within the transaction definition of "locking" the start variant so it cannot be changed?
Thanks
Jon

May be try this way
Make check for field values by the following code
form f_get_variant.
data : v_field like dd03l-fieldname.
move SY-SLSET to v_variant.   " <<<<<
call function 'RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS'
    exporting
      report               = 'YATT3010'
      variant              = v_variant
    tables
      valutab              = i_params
    exceptions
      variant_non_existent = 1
      variant_obsolete     = 2
      others               = 3.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
    loop at i_params.
      assign (i_params-selname) to <fs>.
      <fs> = i_params-low. " Make a check here for fields you want user's cannot change the value
    endloop.
endif.
endform.                                 " F_get_variant

Can you pls tell me how is the Job picking one of the variants automatically and how to change the variants in MC8E.

Rahul,
Could not understand what excatly you are requiring. You have mentioned that Infostructure, version planning type is not populated, when trying to change using SE38, this is only possible if previously the variant does not have any values stored, which also looks theortical as this is a mandatory field before creating variant.
In MC8E you can change a variant which is already used in a Job, If you want to schedule a new Job then use MC8D to schedule a new Job with a new variant or with an existing variant. You can delete the Old Job using MC8F.

Information Broadcasting - Work book Variant selection

Hi Team,
We are working on implementing the Information broadcasting through Process chains. We have configured the Broadcaster setting through RSRT (using ABAP Web). We have sample workbook created in order to broadcast the same via., PC.
The challenge is we have Date field as Mandatory in Query (corresponding workbook) and during BEx Broadcaster setting we have set a default value to it. Whenever the PC runs it picks the default values from the setting. As per the required to has to pick the latest system date in this field before broadcasting to users.
Do we have any option to achieve it? To automate the report variable to pull the latest system date.
Thanks

Kumar

This requirement has been discussed many times. Please search for these docs on SCN.

"Get Variants" button disabled after error message in AT SELECTION SCREEN

Hi,
In "AT SELECTION SCREEN" I throw an error message if certain criteria return no data.
After the error message is thrown, the button for choosing variants no longer appears to work. I click it and the variant selection box doesn't come up. It just changes the values that have been populated from red to black.
What is the code that remedies this? If an error is thrown, it should allow you to select a variant still.
Thanks,
Kevin

"AT SELECTION SCREEN" is not an option here. Let me clarify.
In START-OF-SELECTION, I call another program with a SUBMIT statement. That program uses a logical database. So it makes no sense to move this to "AT SELECTION SCREEN". Even when I did that, I still couldn't solve this problem.
If the SUBMIT statement returns no data (if sy-subrc = '4') then I need to go back to the initial screen. I need to display some kind of message, of type I or E or S, I don't care.
It just needs to go back to the selection screen and VARIANTS need to WORK, and you need to be able to SAVE the variants.
For some reason, if I get no data with the SUBMIT statement, I can display a message and get back to the selection screen but variants do not work. I've tried EXIT, STOP, CALL SELECTION SCREEN 1000 (the only one in the program), END LIST-PROCESSING, etc. NOTHING WORKS!
