ABAP program: old version displays when two users use it at the same time

[Former Member]

Hi,

I encounter a weird situation that the same ALV report shows different columns when two or more users are using it at the same time. The ALV report will go back to the latest version when only one user use it and the rest exit.

Best regards,

Maybe the users have different Layouts saved for this ALV i.e. the defaults setting?

Nope, even that I open two sessions of the same report, the wired situation comes. Why does previous version of the report display?

[former_member201275]

Is it a custom program? Can u post the code?

[former_member188219]

Is there any temporary version of the program?That might effect if so.

[Former Member]

Only one active version exists.

Hello,

this is a very strange situation indeed.

Can you tell which user is getting the old version?

Have you tried logging off the users and have them reconnect? still same problem?

have transactions been modified?

has the user getting old alv saved any layout as default?

good luck with this issue.

Do all the application servers have batch tracks (see SM51)? Otherwise it is possible that the last user will be assigned to the other application server and the source is not (yet) been activated over there.

This occurs very often when programmer transports layout or modification during working hours...

(Note 770248 - ALV layouts: BALVBUFDEL after transporting layouts)

So reset ALV buffer with report BALVBUFDEL.
