Variants changing values dynamically

Former Member — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 15:37:03 GMT

Hi All,

In the selection screen of my report i need to create variant.

I have two fields in selection parameter namely

1. Created on Date/Time(From)

2. Created on Date/Time(To)

As the program runs in background the variant must be such that once the report runs

the value of Created on Date/Time(To) must be saved to the value of Created on Date/Time(From) in the variant automatically.

Can anyone suggest me how a variant can be created to satisfy this?

You could create entries in TVARVC table, read and write those from within your program.

Hello Manipal Parkala

When a program runs in background the system field sy-batch set to 'X'.

So you can insert a code on top most of your START-OF-SELECTION block

like that :

if sy-batch eq 'X'.

Created on Date/Time(From) = Created on Date/Time(To) .

endif.

I hope it helps.
