TVARV Table Variable Update

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a requirement to add a new variable to the TVARV Table

I am able to do it thru SM30.

This variable is used in a variant in a program that runs periodically.

the new variant shd be similar to 1001_CURR_MONTH_START_DATE

now the month and the year shd change based on the fiscal period we are in.

The option I have found is to write a program to update the TVARV table and run this program before running the actual FI program.

But there are other variables that seem to be getting updated and I did not find any programs updating them,

So is there some other way that I can update the date in the variable other than the program approach

Appreciate your help.

Thank you

Best option is through program update , but one thing you need to do is change the TVARV table technical settings. you need to switch off the buffer i.e. select buffering not allowed. Then write a FM or program to update the entry.

Ex:

update tvarv

set low = value " your value

where name = name " your variable name

and type = 'P' " or 'S'

and numb = 0.

I am using the same solution ..
