Program Variant: Popup by User

[peter_atkin]

Guys,

I have copied some standard code to automatically assign a variant via the Initialisation section (see RIAUFK20).

However, the client wants a popup to display all variants for the user so that they can choose the appropriate variant before the selection-screen is displayed.

Is there a suitable function module for this?

Hi,

If you want to get the variant for ALV display then use the above solution. If you want to use the ABAP program variant then use function module

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_VARIANT_CATALOG'

EXPORTING

REPORT = Report Name

DYNNR = Blank

INTERNAL_CALL = 'X'

variant = If you want to pass a

pattern

POP_UP = 'X' is you want popup

for selecting variant

IMPORTING

SEL_VARIANT = variant name passed back

TABLES

BELONGING_DYNNR = BELONGING_DYNNR

EXCEPTIONS

NO_REPORT = 01

REPORT_NOT_EXISTENT = 02

REPORT_NOT_SUPPLIED = 03.

You can try calling it at Initialization Event. Good luck

thanks

Hi Peter,

You can use this FM <b>RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS</b> to retrieve all variants fo a program.

Hope this will help.

Do you mean:

PARAMETERS   p_var LIKE disvariant-variant
                   DEFAULT '/STANDARD'.
DATA: g_variant          LIKE disvariant.
DATA: gx_variant         LIKE disvariant.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_var.
  PERFORM variant_inputhelp_f14 USING p_var.

*---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*       FORM VARIANT_INPUTHELP_F14                                    *
*---------------------------------------------------------------------*
FORM variant_inputhelp_f14 USING p_variant LIKE g_variant-variant.

  DATA h_exit.

  CLEAR gx_variant.

  CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4'
       EXPORTING
            is_variant          = g_variant
*           I_TABNAME_HEADER    =
*           I_TABNAME_ITEM      =
*           IT_DEFAULT_FIELDCAT =
            i_save              = g_variant_save
       IMPORTING
            e_exit              = h_exit
            es_variant          = gx_variant
        EXCEPTIONS
            not_found           = 1
            program_error       = 2
            OTHERS              = 3.

  IF sy-subrc IS INITIAL AND h_exit IS INITIAL.
    g_variant-variant = gx_variant-variant.
    p_variant         = gx_variant-variant.
  ELSE.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE 'S'
                 NUMBER sy-msgno
                 WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
  ENDIF.

ENDFORM.

Guys,

I'd already checked most of these...

I was trying to get a list of those variants <b>ONLY</b> for the user who is currently logged-on.

I've seen this function somewhere before - but I can't remember where!!!

Peter - check the documentation for the FM I mentioned (REUSE_ALV_VARIANT_F4). It has a parameter (IS_VARIANT) that allows you to enter the user name.

Hi,

I think this is what is needed by you. Use function module "RS_VARIANT_FETCH",

Importing

FUNCTION - 'GET'

REPORT - 'PROGRAM NAME'

RKEY - This is a structure please fill in the

program name

SUBMODE - Blank

DYNNR - Normally this is 1000 but if you are

calling this for ur own defined selection

screen then use that number

INTERNAL_CALL - Blank

The output for the selected variant will be in P_VARI table.

Hope this was helpful.

thanks
