Hi All,

I have a problem in protecting a field in the initial popup screen for the transaction S_ALR_87013326 where i have to give a variant to protect the Controlling Area(KOKRS) field in the initial popup.As this popup comes only once after that it gets suppressed.I tried with giving parameters for the transaction but my client is not accepting it.Is there any other way to protect and give a variant for the field in a initial popup screen?? SAP Guys help in this regard.

Thank You

Regards

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I dont know how much this answer useful to you but i am telling my opinoion.

Instead of using varient for a particluar field in for a particular transaction. Why dont you try using <b>SET PARAMETER ID</b>. Using set parameter id u can directly see the values on the particular field when transaction is executed. So no need for varient for this. Just go though the documentatino of PARAMETER ID by using F1 help om sap r/3.

<b> reward for useful answes</b>.

Hi Sunil,

Thanks for the immediate reply.

I tried the way you told giving the value in the parameter id for the specific field.My client is not satisfied with this parameter id as the value will be displayed in the Own data option of the transaction.My client wants to protect the field with a default value.Is there any other way or option to do?

Do help me with this problem.

Thanks n advance

Regards

Hi Andrew,

I dont understand What would be the probelm if you use<b> SET PARAMTER ID</b>

this will show the default value when after u exectute the transaction. You said earlier that you used Paramters . I am not clear that you used PARAMTER or PARAMTER ID. There is a lot of differnce in both. Using paramter id u can give the default value for a particular field in any transaction.

syntax:

<b>SET PARAMETERID</b> <paramte id> <b>FIELD</b> <field>.

The SET statement places the current value of <field> into the paramter id.

<b>GET PARAMTERID</b> <paramter id> <b>FIELD</b> <field>.

GET retrives the value from the parameter id into <field>.

if any doubt please reply back.

Hi Sunil,

Thanks for the reply.

What i meant is Parameter ID itself..I had set the default value for the Parameter ID CAC(it is for Controlling Area field KOKRS) and even it is running properly but the problem is with the parameter id's default value which will be accessible in the Transaction menu System->User Profile->Own data , if the user accidently deletes the value then once again the popup screen will be displayed and there is a possibility of entering another company code(we maintain 3 companies in our system) so my client is not satisfied with the parameter id.This is a Report Writer std transaction S_ALR_87013326 and have created a copy of it.

Is there any other way to protect tat value?

Andrew
