Proxy Report Variants (SAP Library - ALV Grid Control (BC-SRV-ALV))

Proxy Report Variants

Use

If variants are saved for the proxy report, these can be chosen in the MiniALV from a combo box to refresh the data table based on this variant.

Note

Variants are used to save input values of a selection screen so that they can be preassigned later on. Variants are also called selection variants or report variants.

Prequisites

Variants are only transported together with the report if the following prerequisites are met:

Variants delivered by SAP to customers must have the prefix " SAP& " in their technical name. This ensures that the system adds them automatically as a transport object to the transport request of the report.

Variants that are created by customers and are to be transported together with the report, must have the prefix " CUS& " in their technical name.

Caution

The ampersand ( '&' ) is used in URLs to separate the value assignments of service parameters from each other. If you use an ampersand ( '&' ) in the variant name and assign your MiniApp to a role using the old method (by explicitly specifying a URL), you must replace the ampersand with '%26' .

The ampersand is replaced automatically if you:

Assign the variant name within an Internet service

Assign the MiniApp to the role using the new method.
