Probably the only way to achieve this is by creating transaction variants:

In the SAP Reference IMG, you can create transaction variants. Choose Basis Components ® Application Personalization ® Tailoring of Application Transactions ® Configure Transaction-Related Display Values for Fields (Transaction SHD0). Transaction variants allow you to preset values for fields in a transaction, set field attributes, or hide entire screens.

To execute a transaction variant, you define a variant transaction using the Transaction Maintenance transaction (SE93).

Once you have entered a transaction code and short description, choose transaction type Transaction with variant (Variant transaction).

To define a variant, enter the name of the transaction and the name of the variant. You can then use the new transaction code to start the special variant of the transaction.

Steps :-

Transaction SHD0 - Create a variant for the required transaction bychanging the layout through hiding fields and screens.

Transaction SE93 - Create a variant transaction (e.g. for VA02 you canname it as ZA02). Next allocate the transaction variant to this varianttransaction.
