Call program using submit with variant that changing value

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I need to call a report with variant and abstract the data back to my current program.

so far,

i use following method

SUBMIT RFITEMAR USING SELECTION-SET 'XXX'
       EXPORTING LIST TO MEMORY
       AND RETURN.
 
DATA list_tab TYPE TABLE OF abaplist.
 
CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_FROM_MEMORY'
  TABLES
    listobject = list_tab
  EXCEPTIONS
    not_found  = 1
    OTHERS     = 2.
 
  DATA: L_ABAPLIST LIKE ABAPLIST OCCURS 0.
  
  DATA: BEGIN OF L_ASCITAB OCCURS 0,  
            LINE(2048),
          END OF L_ASCITAB.
 
 
  CALL FUNCTION 'LIST_TO_ASCI'
       EXPORTING
            LIST_INDEX         = -1
       TABLES
            LISTASCI           = L_ASCITAB
            LISTOBJECT         = list_tab
       EXCEPTIONS
            EMPTY_LIST         = 1
            LIST_INDEX_INVALID = 2
            OTHERS             = 3.

However, the problem is that i need to get some value from variant 'XXX' and keep changing it.

I have try function module "RS_VARIANT_VALUES_TECH_DATA" to get the variant details.

But, it just doesn't get me back all the details of the variants.

Are there any way i could read the variants in detail? i even try to read LRAW data from table vari. but there are no function module to convert the LRAW to either char or STRING.

Thanks.

Try function "RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS", it returns all details and parameters from the variants.

You can use the FM "RS_CHANGE_CREATED_VARIANT" to change the variant values for already created variant and the FM "RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS" to get the variant values. Instead of changing the variant values and then passing to the Submit, you can directly pass the values to the Submit through..WITH SELECTION-TABLE seltab or ... WITH p IN sel variant of the Submit.
