Administration authorization on ALV Variant

[Former Member]

In SAP List Viewer we previously had Administration authorization with SD_MAINTAIN_ALL authoirzation.

But since the upgrade to ERP2005 this is not enough and we can't change the layout (display variant) because the Settings -> Layout -> Administration option is inactive.

Anyone got a clue here? Which authorization object should the user have in order to Save layouts of an ALV list.

Best regards.

for all ALV reports u are getting this ? check

reuse_alv_list_display and parameter IS_SAVE values and its documentations.

Hi Peram!

Thank you very much for your answer.

You are referring to when you call the FM yourself but VA45 is standard SAP where it's not really possible to change the call.

Anyway.

We tested with S_ALV_LAYO and the activity '23' = Maintain but that didn't work. Then we AGAIN tested with the SD_VARIANT_MAINTAIN and 'A' and then it worked. So we did do something wrong previously but I don't know what.

Thanks very much anyway.

Solved it myself SD_VARIANT_MAINTAN and 'A' is the key.
