Report Painter - Add Transaction code

[Former Member]

Hi All;

I have created a variant of the report S_ALR_87013558 using the report painter transactions CJ1/2/3 and CJ4/5/6 (Not GRR1). The report is working fine.

I now want to attach a transaction code to the report to make executing it faster and more effective. I have searched the forum and I know that I should follow the following steps:

To create a TCode, follow the steps below.

1) Go to Transaction code SE93, Enter TCode Name and Press Create.

2) Give short Description and select Parameter Transaction, Press Enter

3) Select Transation Radio Button and write START_REPORT in the next text box Also Check the box Skip Initial Screen.

My problem comes into play when one considers the paramaters that I should enter at the bottom of the screen. I have tried to copy the same setting as S_ALR_87013558 but it did not work. The following also does not work :

On the bottom of Screen (default Values), Enter Parameters

i) Name = D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE. Value = RW

ii) Name = D_SREPOVARI-REPORT Value = Your Report Group Name (Say ZGrp)

Your feedback will be appreciated.

Hi;

I was able to resolve the issue. I had to input the exact number of spaces as per report S_ALR_87013558 (23 to be exact).

Thanks for your help on the matter.

Kind Regards;

I have ensured that all the settings are as specified but now I get an error "Report does not Exists" ?

Could it be due to the fact that it is assigned to the Package $TMP?

I had the same issue. This usually because of the space between

KP 01RPSCO_X and YOUR REPORT NAME

Hi,

I had this same space issues. How to fill overcome this space issue for field "D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT"

If I provide spaces between KP 01RPSCO_X <report name>, its not allowing spaces.

If I didn't provide the space then its saying that "report does not exists"

Please let me know how to overcome this space issue?.

By the way I have provided report type as "RE"

there is a similar kind of transaction in other system which Looks like this " KP 01RPSCO_X <report name>."

I dont understand why its not allowing spaces in this system. As its in different system i cant make a copy of this transaction and change the parameters.

Hi Mr.A,

Did you check the check boxes under GUI Support? These should be checked.

Transaction Classification should be "Professional User Transaction"

The "Inherint GUI attributes" should be checked under Classification

The default Values

D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE RE

D_SREPOVARI-REPORT

D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT KP 01RPSCO_X YOUR REPORT NAME

D_SREPOVARI-VARIANT

D_SREPOVARI-NOSELSCRN

The space between KP 01RPSCO_X and your Report name should be 23 exact.

Try this. Should work.

very useful reply

HI Psconsultant.

thanks for your reply.

1. I have included START_REPORT in transaction field.

2. Checked the SKIP INITIAL SCREEN

3. Check the INHERIT GUI ATTRIBUTES.

4. Selected Radio Button PROFESSIONAL USER TRANSACTION

5. Checked all check boxes for GUI SUPPORT.

in the Default Values

D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE = RE

the problem is with D_SREPOVARI-EXTD-REPORT

if I type as KP01RPSCO_X12KST1A (without sapces) the report is not working. If I execute the t.code it says

REPORT NAME DOES NOT EXISTS.

if i type as KP 01RPSCO_X 12KST1A (with 23 spaces) and click on SAVE button(in SE93) it throws error msg

DO NOT USE BLANK CHARACTERS

Hi;

I have updated the first parameter and I have made some progress, however when I execute the transaction now I need to select and Application Class and then specify a Report Type.

Can you perhaps indicate what other parameters I should enter and their value? Perhaps this will help.

Did you check the check boxes under GUI Support? These should be checked.

Transaction Classification should be "Professional User Transaction"

The "Inherint GUI attributes" should be checked under Classification

The default Values

D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE RE

D_SREPOVARI-REPORT

D_SREPOVARI-EXTDREPORT KP 01RPSCO_X YOUR REPORT NAME

D_SREPOVARI-VARIANT

D_SREPOVARI-NOSELSCRN

Try this. Should work

Hello,

The Value for D_SREPOVARI-REPORTTYPE should be RE not RW. Please try that.
