Selection screens in Reports

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

For one report is it possible more than 1 selection-screen and what is the limit for number of selection-screens for a report. How can we handle those selection-screens. What is the purpose of too many selection-screens?

Thanks For all

If u have some specific requirement then instead of having multiple selection screen,u shud modify ur screen based on some checkboxes or parameters.

like if radiobutton/Checkbox is set then amke some fields visible and some invisible..

refer this demo code for this -

PARAMETERS: P_RAD1 TYPE XFELD RADIOBUTTON GROUP G1 USER-COMMAND USR

DEFAULT 'X',

P_RAD2 TYPE XFELD RADIOBUTTON GROUP G1.

• SCREEN 1.

PARAMETERS: P_MATNR TYPE MATNR MODIF ID M1,

P_KUNNR TYPE KUNNR MODIF ID M1.

• SCREEN 2.

PARAMETERS: P_LIFNR TYPE LIFNR MODIF ID M2,

P_EBELN TYPE EBELN MODIF ID M2.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.

IF P_RAD1 = 'X'.

• INVISIBLE THE OTHER SCREEN FIELDS.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF SCREEN-GROUP1 = 'M2'.

SCREEN-INVISIBLE = '1'.

SCREEN-INPUT = '0'.

MODIFY SCREEN.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

ENDIF.

IF P_RAD2 = 'X'.

• INVISIBLE THE OTHER SCREEN FIELDS.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF SCREEN-GROUP1 = 'M1'.

SCREEN-INVISIBLE = '1'.

SCREEN-INPUT = '0'.

MODIFY SCREEN.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

ENDIF.

amit has covered handling part .

purpose of too many selection screen //

there is no advantage of having many selection screens if this is not serving my process precisely .

we categorise them to differentiate the process .

Basicallay as a progammer we need to decide how the selection hierarchy is determined and it would be better if we group them into minimum number by methodology .
