Change standard layout of SE38

[HKany]

Hello everybody,

is is possible to change permanent the default setting of report layout when you create a new one?

When I create a new report I get the following layout:

&----

---

*& Report XYZ

*&

&----

---

*&

*&

&----

---

But I would like to change this default setting for every new report from every user/programmer like this:

&----

---

*& Report: Name

*& Company:

*& Date:

&----

---

*& Description:

*&

&----

---

and so on.

Can anybody tell me how to realize?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Although you cannot make it as default.

But one option is to use the patterns.

In SE38 Go to Utilities>More Utitlies>Edit Pattern-->Create new pattern.

Create a new pattern in which you can put your requirement.

Next time when you create a new program always call this pattern.

This is the better method to achieve your requirment.

There is a suer exit SEU00001 for SE38.

See if there is a way to enhance the se38 editor.

You should create a pattern and call the same when required.

Yes , you can do it.

create a project for this user exit SEUED001 - EXIT_SAPLS38E_001 and add this code in CMOD.

INSERT REPORT program FROM it_new_code.

*After this, activate the include program.
*then go back to CMOD transaction and activate the PROJECT that you've just created.
