ABAP Query display variant problem

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have three different SAP clients development DV1, Staging ST1 and production PC1. I have created an abap query for which I m trying to create a global display variant (not user specific). I m able to do so easily in DV1 and PC1 systems. But when I try to create a display variant on ST1 by first running the report and then going to menu Settings->Layout->Save . I find that by default the User-Specific checkbox is selected and disabled. Because of this I can create only user specific display variants for my queries.

Where can I change the settings so that when I go to the above menu the User-specific checkbox is enabled and I m able to create global display variants ?

Thank you for reading.

I am confuse after reading your question , any way we can adding "default" variant in SQ01. You can also assign the same variant in SE93 , when you create T-code for the specific query !!.

Well if it doesn’t solve your problem ..please explain your question with the help of tr. codes and what you’re trying to do !!

I’m sorry , its really making me knutt by reading your question again and again .

Thanks

Hi

Just check weather any coding was handled in the program for this variant.

The problem is with display variant not selection variant. No coding is handled for the variant. I encounter the problem when I try to create a global display variant.

Are you able to create global display variants for other queries in ST1? Either your own or SAP?

No I m not able to create display variant for any queries on this client. Are there some settings which I can change or basis people can change?

It seems to me that it could be a configuration problem. You could try your basis person, but a functional person who deals with these sorts of reports might be a better bet.

See how the authorization object S_ALV_LAYO is setted.

This object governs the way ALV layouts are saved.

For more info see the OSS Note 601803.
