Modify a report variant from ABAP Code.

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I want to modify (or create) a report variant for a program with ABAP. I need to do this c'ause in this case it's impossible to execute a submit.

Is it possible to do it with a function módule or ABAP code? I only need to change the value of one of the variables.

Thank you very much,

Artur.

Hi , Just give RS_VARIANT* in SE37 and press F4 .It will give you the list of function modules using which we can play with variants of ABAP Reports. Regards, Lakshman

You can use Function modules:

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_VARIANT_EXISTS'

EXPORTING

report = 'RHINTE00'

variant = 'ALIGNMENT'

IMPORTING

r_c = lf_rc

EXCEPTIONS

not_authorized = 1

no_report = 2

report_not_existent = 3

report_not_supplied = 4

OTHERS = 5.

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_VARIANT_DELETE'

EXPORTING

report = 'RHINTE00'

variant = 'ALIGNMENT'

flag_confirmscreen = 'N'

flag_delallclient = 'N'

• IMPORTING

• VARIANT =

EXCEPTIONS

not_authorized = 1

not_executed = 2

no_report = 3

report_not_existent = 4

report_not_supplied = 5

variant_locked = 6

variant_not_existent = 7

no_corr_insert = 8

variant_protected = 9

OTHERS = 10.

ENDIF.

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_CREATE_VARIANT'

EXPORTING

curr_report = 'RHINTE00'

curr_variant = lf_variant

vari_desc = ls_vari_desc

TABLES

vari_contents = lt_valutab

vari_text = lt_vari_text

• VSCREENS =

EXCEPTIONS

illegal_report_or_variant = 1

illegal_variantname = 2

not_authorized = 3

not_executed = 4

report_not_existent = 5

report_not_supplied = 6

variant_exists = 7

variant_locked = 8

OTHERS = 9.

Of course you need to change the program name and the variant name with your own.

Hope it can helps you.

Hi,

Tables : VARID,RSVAR

The above are the TABLES to store the variant for reports . By using the above table and achieve your requirement.
