Dynamic Variants

[Former Member]

Hi all

I have a report which has several input fields. One among them is ID.

I have to read all values of this field ID from a database table and pass it as a variant to this report.

How do I automate this process ? Will changing variant FM's help ?

I ASSUME THAT THE id FIELD IS A SELECT-OPTION.

build a ranges table with all the id values in it.

ranges: r_id for <table>-<field>.

loop at itab_ids.

r_id-low = itab_ids-id.

r_id-sign = 'I'.

r_id-option = 'EQ'.

append r_id.

clear r_id.

endloop.

submit <called program name> with s_id in r_id. "s_id is the select option in the called program .

yes it indeed is a select option ....... will try this option ....thank you for ur response.

I have one more question though which you might be able to show a pointer and that is the report I am talking above is a generated report through a FM RSDRD_DELETE_FACTS. How do I get this report name ....because it keeps changing , will FM like 'JOB_SUBMIT' help ?

Hi Somnath,

If it is a dynamically generated program name, then you can just say:

submit ( prog_name ) with...." where prog_name contains the name of the generated report.

HI,

I think u just need to declare a select-option and then leave it blank and use it in ur select statement to achieve what you are looking for.
