Variant Creation for Background mode

[Former Member]

hi

I am trying to create variants which will run the background jobs for CFM1 transaction with materials having 6000 records every time.

Can you tell me how to create variants for a particular transaction A using some other program B.

if I have 24000 records I want 4 different variants with 6000 records each for CFM1

All helpful answers will be rewarded

Try submit prog a using selection sets of program b.

see different variations of submit for clarity.

I want this in the background mode not in foreground mode

Hi

Check these function modules

RS_CREATE_VARIANT_RFC to create the variants. create a program to call this function module as we can;t call function modules in background

BAPI_XBP_JOB_OPEN To create the background Job

BAPI_XBP_JOB_ADD_ABAP_STEP Add the report name to the background job

BAPI_XBP_JOB_START_IMMEDIATELY To start the job immidiately

Hope this helps

Award if it helps

hi ,

you can categorize ur data for putting into different variants and create 4 different variant names. use the fm 'RS_CREATE_VARIANT' for creating variants in ur program B. use the following code in ur program..

DATA : ls_variantdesc TYPE varid.

DATA : lt_varianttext TYPE TABLE OF varit ,

wa_varianttext TYPE varit.

DATA : tt_reportparam TYPE TABLE OF rsparams,

wa_reportparam TYPE rsparams.

DATA: jobcnt TYPE tbtcjob-jobcount,

jobnam TYPE tbtcjob-jobname VALUE 'ZMIGO_RESERVE105'.

*Variant parameters

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_WERKS'.

wa_reportparam-kind = 'P'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-werks.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_MATNR'.

wa_reportparam-kind = 'P'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-matnr.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_BWTAR'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-bwtar.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_ERFMG'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-erfmg.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_LGORT'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-lgort.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_WEMPF'.

wa_reportparam-kind = 'P'.

wa_reportparam-low = mseg_wa-lfbnr.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

wa_reportparam-selname = 'S_BDTER'.

wa_reportparam-kind = 'P'.

wa_reportparam-low = sy-datum.

APPEND wa_reportparam TO tt_reportparam.

CLEAR ls_variantdesc.

ls_variantdesc-mandt = sy-mandt.

ls_variantdesc-report = 'ZMIGO_RESERVE105'.

ls_variantdesc-variant = 'VARIANT'.

ls_variantdesc-ename = sy-uname.

ls_variantdesc-edat = sy-datum.

ls_variantdesc-etime = sy-uzeit.

REFRESH lt_varianttext.

CLEAR wa_varianttext.

wa_varianttext-mandt = sy-mandt.

wa_varianttext-langu = sy-langu.

wa_varianttext-report = 'ZMIGO_RESERVE105'.

COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.

for job name, u can give your transactions program name.

hI,

1. What u can do list.

Get all the variant of the standard report and

data: variant(14).

variant = 'VARIANT1'. " Based on ur condition change the value to the variable

SUBMIT REPORT01

VIA SELECTION-SCREEN

USING SELECTION-SET VARIANT "Check here

USING SELECTION-SETS OF PROGRAM 'REPORT00'

AND RETURN.

2 .Use the fm: RS_VARIANT_CONTENTS to get the values of the different values in the screen.

move those values to screen fields in the INITIALIZATION event
