How to clear 'Created By' field at 'Find Variant' screen?

Former Member

Hello Experts,

I've developed a CBO program and saved some variants.

When I clicked 'Find Variant' button at the initial screen, my SAP User ID has been always displayed at 'Created By'field.

It might be so inconvenient for me to find another variant that was created by another user.

Please let me know how I can clear that field when I click 'Find Variant' button.

Thanks.

BR,

Hello Banaja Kumar Bal,

Thank you for your reply.

I got your point, but the User ID is still displayed when I go into that transaction again.

What I want to do is erasing the User ID permanently from the Find Variant screen.

Thanks again.

HI,

The user name will always be there i think,

If you logon from other user id say ECC01, the other user id will be present ECC01.

I dont think it will be removed.

Hello Playsuji,

There is no field for user name at the Find Variant screen, so the user name is not displayed.

Thank you for your reply.

Hi,

You can check the technical information of that particular field and see whether there is any parameter id associated to it data element. If so you can clear the memory id in the at selection-screen output event.

Else it can be cleared by switching off the option of save history option.

Hello Keshav.T,

Thank you for your information.

Finally, I got an answer from OSS and the following is that.

The popup is shown when there are more than 10 variants exist.

If do not want to have this popup, you can modify the include

LSVARTOP in SE38:

C_VARILIST TYPE I VALUE '10' - maybe change value to '100'

or if you want to have the popup but without the name inside:

change include LSVARE01 and comment the line:

ename-low = sy-uname. append ename. "old

  • ename-low = sy-uname. append ename. "new

I believe this message might be able to solve my problem.

Thanks again.
