Display Profile for Lists
Use
Lists produced by BOM reporting functions are displayed according to list profiles. These list profiles are used for:
The functions described here are only available for
Features
In the standard R/3 System, each reporting function has a standard list profile that provides default values for display profiles. To create another reporting list, you create a new profile. You use the display blocks of the standard profile to do this.
List names
The content and layout of a reporting list are determined by a list profile. All profiles for one transaction (for example, Explode BOM
® BOM level by level) are allocated to a List name.The following objects are allocated to a list name:
A reporting list is made up of several sections (display blocks). A maximum block contains all the fields allowed in a display block, for example, all the fields of the list header and all the fields of a heading. Maximum blocks are defined internally in the SAP R/3 System and cannot be changed.
If you create enhancements – additional fields in BOM tables (for example, STPO – BOM item) – the maximum block is not extended. This is why you cannot copy these fields to the list.
A list profile groups together all display blocks (for example, list header) that define the layout of a specific reporting list (for example, BOM level by level). You can have several list profiles for a reporting function, which display the result in different ways.
The profiles for producing lists in the standard R/3 System are known as standard profiles.
Field attributes are maintained for the fields in a display block. You can change these as required (for example, move or delete a field). The fields in a display block are a subset of the fields in the maximum block.
Default Values for the Display Profile
When you use a BOM reporting function, the view settings define the display profile for the resulting list. The display profile contains one of the following default values:
In the standard R/3 System, reporting lists are produced according to standard profiles.
You can change the standard profiles as you wish, to produce variable reporting lists. You can define these new list profiles as default values for certain users.
