System =) List =) Save =) Local File is grayed out in ECC6

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I tried to search this question before posting.

Many of my reports (both standard SAP and customize) CAN NOT user function:

System>List>Save-->Local File since we updated to ECC6

Please suggest me any OSS note I can use to resolve this problem.

Thanks,

Check download authorization.

Hi Hübenthal,

Do you mean user authorization in ECC?

Thanks,

You can restrict users to download content from SAP, that affects downloading the way you mentioned, it affects the buttons in ALVs and to download Spoolfiles. But i'm not an authorization specialist so i do not no the object name for that.

Hi Hübenthal ,

I mean this is the standard function of SAP:

System>List>Save-->Local File

It worked in 4.6c system but it was disable since we updated to ECC6 system.

Hi,

The authorization object S_GUI controls the activity for importing or exporting a file with the activity number 60 and 61.

Hi Vikranth,

I wrote the code as below to check download authorization:

AUTHORITY-CHECK OBJECT 'S_GUI'
         ID 'ACTVT' FIELD '60'. " '61'.

if sy-subrc <> 0.
 write: 'do not have authorization'.
else.
  write: 'have authorization'.
endif.

Both cases the result is 'have authorization'.

Is it correct?

Thanks,

Hi,

I do not think this is authorization problem.

I found an OSS note #1033149 for SU53 and SU56. My problem is a bit related to this ticket but I'm not sure whether this ticket can fix my problem.

Please suggest me if you know any OSS note or solution.

Thanks,

Hi,

i think that's not a problem of autorization. I think the outout in ecc6 are often changed to alv-grid

and these output cannot be save.

I'm not sure if I'm right, please test it.

Hi,

Did you have solution about this issue?

[Former Member]

I just had a similar customer query, a user could not use menu->system->list->save->local file.

It turned out that ALV list display was selected.

After switching to classic list display (Menu->Settings->Switch List) the menu items were active.

[Former Member]

Hi Peter, where did you go to switch to classic list display? I can't find Menu -> Settings -> Switch List.

[Former Member]

Hello Andrew,

            It is under settings --> switch list.

Thanks,

Otherwhise , if the screen doesnt give you the ability of downloading , look for the printer icon in the upper icon bar , if it is active , click it , it will take you to another screen where you can define a layout for the data that the system is displaying and in that screen you will be able to download the contents.

Hope this helps.

Hi experts,

is there any feasibility to add the shortcut key for saving the output spreadsheet of a custom program.

path : list--->save/send--->file-->spreadsheet

I want to add a shortcut key for directly populating the file type selection popup
