Variant for multiple reports

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Does anyone know if it's possible to create variants that serve for multiple reports? If so, how?

I have 10 very similar reports which use the same selection screen defined in an include for all of them.

I dont think this is possible. Because the variant is stored at report level.

Hi Simon

You may use the table TVARVC for storing variants. It can be maintained by the transaction STVARVC.

Thanks to everyone,

I didn't really think it was possible so I just used max bianchi's ZUT_COPY_VARIANT to copy them for now. Thanks Pushpraj, i'm not sure how to use the table TVARVC with the report but I´ll look into it.

Regards,

Simon

think u can create Transactions for these and assign the variant while creating the transaction and save and execute these transaction so that these will execute with the variant that was attached.

Hi,

It is not possible to create variant for multiple reports as it is said as

you must create a separate variant for each report and then save it with the report where the values will be used.
