Dear All,

Could someone tell me the steps to create a transaction for a query?

Thanks,

DM

No need to use small report

No need to use generated program name (it really can change)

Just create a parameter transaction with reference to START_REPORT transaction. When creating a parameter transaction you have to set the following parameters:

D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE = AQ

D_SREPOVARI-REPORT = precisely the first 12 characters - query user group (including trailing spaces), 13-th character is G for global queries

D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT = Query name as shown in SQ01.

That's it.

Well, and do not forget to check the flag "Skip first screen".

To all others interested: just try to add some SAP query into a role via PFCG, then run it, and then via System -> Status look into the definition of the transaction generated, and you'll see the answer.

Hi,

Thank you very much for the answers, much appreciated. One more question....how can the generated program name change? When I was going through that option.....it make me wonder.

Cheers,

Don't bother answering that question. I got it.....it's coz the query can change and we might have to regenerate the program. Am I right?
