How to set up standard variant in ABAP report

[Former Member]

Hi,

I would like to create a standard variant for running ABAP report so that users don't have to select the variant each time.

I know we can specify the variant name as a standard variant on changing query by SQ01 but is there any way to give the function in ABAP report?

Does anybody know how to code or set up to do that?

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,

Miki

When yo create a transaction for a report you can set a default variant.

Hi j.ortiz

That means I can't set default variant if we run a report by SE38, right?

Thanks,

Hi,

Try defaulting the values for each selection screen fields (parameter/select option) in the ABAP program itself at the declaration part by using "DEFAULT".

Use the RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS FM

CALL FUNCTION 'RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS'
    EXPORTING
      report                      = sy-repid
      variant                     = 'PRUEBA' "Your Variant
*     MOVE_OR_WRITE               = 'W'
*     NO_IMPORT                   = ' '
     EXECUTE_DIRECT              = 'X'
*   IMPORTING
*     SP                          =
    tables
*     L_PARAMS                    =
*     L_PARAMS_NONV               =
*     L_SELOP                     =
*     L_SELOP_NONV                =
      valutab                     = VALUE_TAB
*     OBJECTS                     =
*     FREE_SELECTIONS_DESC        =
*     FREE_SELECTIONS_VALUE       =
   EXCEPTIONS
     VARIANT_NON_EXISTENT        = 1
     VARIANT_OBSOLETE            = 2
     OTHERS                      = 3  .
  IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
  ENDIF.

The variant Reports are in VARI Table

See FM RS_SUPPORT_SELECTIONS

This will allow you to use a default variant or use different ones based on userid. See the documentation.
