Hi,

SY-DBSYS

Central database system (such as INFORMIX or ORACLE)

SY-HOST

Application server (such as HS0333, PAWDF087 …)

SY-OPSYS

Operating system of the application server (such as HP-UX, SINIX)

SY-SAPRL

R/3 Release in use (such as 30D, 46A, …)

SY-SYSID

R/3 System name (such as B20, I47, ...)

Information About the Current Terminal Session

SY-LANGU

One-character language key with the user’s logon language (such as D, E, F…)

SY-MANDT

Client in which the user is logged on (such as 000, 400…)

When you use Open SQL to access the database, SY-MANDT is used as the first key field in the WHERE clause.

SY-MODNO

Index of the external sessions. The first session has the index zero. The value is increased by one each time you choose System ® Create session or start a transaction by entering /o. If you have deleted sessions, the system fills free numbers before increasing the count further. Sessions started using CALL TRANSACTION … STARTING NEW TASK begin again at 0.

SY-UNAME

Username of the current user, such as KELLERH, BC400-01…

Information About Current Date and Time

The following system fields are always set automatically. The GET TIME statement synchronizes the time on the application server with the time on the database server and writes it to the field SY-UZEIT. SY-DATUM and the system fields for the local timezone (SY-TIMLO, SY-DATLO, and SY-ZONLO) are also reset.

SY-DATLO

User’s local date, for example 19981129, 19990628, …

SY-DATUM

Current application server date, for example 19981130, 19990627, …

SY-DAYST

X during summertime, otherwise space.

SY-FDAYW

Factory calendar day of the week: Monday = 1 … Friday = 5.

SY-TIMLO

User’s local time, for example 154353, 225312, …

SY-TZONE

Time difference in seconds between local time and Greenwich Mean Time (UTC), for example, 360, 10800.

SY-UZEIT

Current application server time. for example 164353, 215312, …

SY-ZONLO

User’s time zone, for example, EST, UTC, …

Information About the Current ABAP Program

SY-CALLD

X if the program was started using CALL TRANSACTION, CALL DIALOG, or SUBMIT … . Space if the program was started using LEAVE TO TRANSACTION or using a transaction code from a screen. SY-CALLD is always space when a batch input session is being processed.

SY-CPROG

The name of the calling program in an external routine, otherwise the name of the current program.

SY-DBNAM

The name of the logical database linked to an executable program.

SY-DYNGR

Screen group to which the current screen belongs. You can assign several screens to one screen group, for example, to allow you to modify them all identically.

SY-DYNNR

Number of the current screen. During selection screen processing, SY-DYNNR contains the screen number of the current selection screen. During list processing, it contains the number of the container screen. During subscreen processing, SY-DYNNR contains the number of the subscreen. This also applies to tabstrip controls.

SY-LDBPG

In executable programs, the database program of the associated logical database.

SY-REPID

Name of the current ABAP program. For externally-called procedures, it is the name of the main program of the procedure. If you pass SY-REPID as an actual parameter to an external procedure, the formal parameter does not contain the name of the caller, but that of the main program of the procedure. To avoid this, assign SY-REPID to an auxiliary variable and use that in the call, or use the system field SY-CPROG.

SY-TCODE

The current transaction code.

Background Processing

SY-BATCH

X if the ABAP program is running in the background, otherwise space

Batch Input

SY-BINPT

X while a batch input session is running and when an ABAP program is called using CALL TRANSACTION USING, otherwise space.

OPTIONS FROM in the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement can set SY-BINPT to space either for the entire duration of the program, or at the end of the BDC data.

SY-BINPT is always space during a CATT procedure.

Reward if helpful.

Regards,

Karthick.

Hi,

Goto se11 and find the table SYST.

You will find in this table the list of system variables used.

Few examples

SY-LANGU (logon language)

SY-UZEIT (current time)

SY-DATUM (current date)

SY-UNAME (user name)
