IW39 - Hide select-options - Hide column in grid

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I want to hide the costs column in IW38/IW39.

I know that I can hide the column with variants but the users can change this. So it is not feasible.

Transaction variants is also not possible because I cannot hide fields of a selection screen.

Now I have to do two things:

1. Remove the select-options "layout" in the selection screen

2. Remove the variant button in the order list

Please suggest BADIs/Userexits where I can do such things.

Or any better ideas?

Hi,

The problem lies with preventing the user from creating a new variant(Just for this specific report) from the selection screen of IW38.Maybe there is a auth object for this.I am not sure.

However,I think you should be able to solve this through transaction variant and small custom program

1) You should be able to hide the " display variant" icon through transaction variant for IW38

2) Create a simple custom program which contains the allowable selection fields for the report IW38 and then submit IW38 transaction from it. Create a separate transaction for ths custom program and control access to IW38 and this program.

Hi,

thanks for the answer.

But what happend when a user leaves the order list with back. Then he/she would see the mask of the original selection screen and another back would show my custom program.

Any ideas?

Hi,

Not sure if this would work, But how about using BADI_EAM_SINGLELEVEL_LIST in the standard IW38/9 to reset the cost field values back to 0?

Hi,

That might be a problem with Call transaction functionality.

How about...

1) Create a custom program which just has the selection screen of the required fields for IW38 and then submit the iw38 report by skipping the selection screen along with the "RETURN" command. This should take care of the "BACK" issue and take care of selection screen concern.

2) By using the submit report, we would however loose the control that we achieved for the display variant on the output screen. Now, in order to overcome this, you could do a Implicit enhancement within the actual program to call the output list display without providing a option to change the display variant.
