Change start transaction

After posting htis in NW administration forum I thought it would be better to post here:

Is it possible, without modifications, to globally change the initial start transaction from the SAP Easy Access Menu to a custom transaction code?

In other words, I do not want to load any of the area menus like SMEN or SESSION_MANAGER when a user first logs in. Please note - I do not want to use an area menu at all. I need to use a transaction that runs a custom program.

Obviously you can use SAPGui shortcuts to load an initial transaction, but that is not an option for me - I need to set some sort of global setting if possible.

Any suggestions?

After login please do this

<b>Session Manager -> Extras -> Set Start Transaction -> <Your Tcode></b>. Then log off and login again, the transaction you have set will be executed.

Kathirvel - Thanks but this is not a global setting and we can't trust that the users will set the required transaction as their start transaction. I might look at writing an ABAP to automatically set the start transactions for all users by updating table AGR_DATEU. All that is required is a record for each user with "START_TCD" in the ID field and the transaction name in the REPORTS field.

Still hoping for a cleaner approach though if anyone knows of one...?
