Problem creating job steps variants

Hi Gurus!

I have a problem with job steps creation.

In my program I need to copy the exist job with some condition accords to job steps variants.

But when I create the new job and it steps and variants in SM37, I can not see the variants names, only number.

For example in template that I am copying it looks like that:


No. Program name/command      Prog. type  Spool list   Parameters              User Lang.
 1              RMCVNEUA                  ABAP                        BW_TEMPLATE       aaa     EN

But in job that I create it is:


Program name/command      Prog. type   Spool list   Parameters               User  Lang.
RMCVNEUA                          ABAP                           &0000000000271     ddd     EN

How can I create steps with variant names instead of numbers/indexes? BW_TEMPLATE instead of &0000000000271.

My code:


CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_OPEN'
    EXPORTING
      jobname          = lv_jobname
      sdlstrtdt        = lv_date
      sdlstrttm        = lv_time
    IMPORTING
      jobcount         = lv_jobcount
    EXCEPTIONS
      cant_create_job  = 1
      invalid_job_data = 2
      jobname_missing  = 3
      OTHERS           = 4.

.
.
.
SUBMIT (ps_tbtcp-progname) VIA JOB pv_jobname NUMBER pv_jobcount
                                 USING SELECTION-SET ls_cat-variant
                                 AND RETURN.
.
.
.
CALL FUNCTION 'JOB_CLOSE'
    EXPORTING
      jobcount                          = lv_jobcount
      jobname                           = lv_jobname
     direct_start                      = lv_imm_run
   EXCEPTIONS
     cant_start_immediate              = 1
     invalid_startdate                 = 2
     jobname_missing                   = 3
     job_close_failed                  = 4
     job_nosteps                       = 5
     job_notex                         = 6
     lock_failed                       = 7
     invalid_target                    = 8
     OTHERS                            = 9
