Try using LVC_VARIANT_SELECT and LVC_VARIANT_SAVE fms.

First call LVC_VARIANT_SELECT to read variant from the first program and then call LVC_VARIANT_SAVE to save it for the second program.

Take a look at report BCALV_GRID_11 for reference

 

Refer to the follwoing SAP Tables and see if you have some luck.
==========================================================

LTDX --> Generic storage of display variants
LTDXD --> Default display variants

Whose Time is right ?

WHOSE TIME IS RIGHT?

There was a man who works as a foreman at a factory.

Every morning on his way to work, he would pass a particular shop selling watches. He will stop in front of the shop and adjust the time on his wrist watch, and will then proceed to work. He will do this everyday.

The watch shop owner became very curious and one day stopped the man and asked him what he was doing. The man said that he was the foreman of the factory and everyday it was his duty to ring the bell to sound the alarm at 5.00pm to indicate that it was time to stop work for the day. He wanted to be accurate with the time and therefore everyday he would look at the big clock in the shop to adjust the time on his wrist watch. The shop owner started laughing! He said, “Everyday at 5.00pm when the factory bell sounds the alarm, I would quickly adjust the time on my clock”.

It is important for us to realize that to be successful we have to follow and copycat the right leaders. We should role model leaders with good characters, values and beliefs, otherwise we may find that we may reach the “top of our ladder”, but only to realize that we are on “top of the wrong ladder”.

Hope that you will find a role model who can assist and inspire you to greatness.

Have a great day ahead !!!

Install new fonts in SAP

Use transaction SE73

Regards,

Locating Badi's

Go to transaction SE80 in a client where you can experiment with the transaction that you are interested in.Go to class CL_EXITHANDLER. [Select Class / Interface from the drop-down, and put CL_EXITHANDLER for the class.]

Go to method get_instance. [Press RETURN to ensure that the contents of the Object Name frame are for CL_EXITHANDLER. Expand the Methods node. Double-click on GET_INSTANCE.]Insert a breakpoint just after = the call to the method cl_exithandler get_class_name_by_interface. Use the transaction in which you are BAdI-hunting.

Examine the contents of the field exit_name whenever the processing stops at the breakpoint.

I have found a case where exit_name was an unknown field. Then class_name gave a good clue to the name of the BAdI.

Logical Filename Funda

A logical file name can be created either as clientspecific

(using transaction SF01) or as crossclient

(using transaction FILE). Remember that a

client-specific file name always overrides a crossclient

file name, so make sure you delete any

unnecessary or obsolete client-specific definitions

in all clients affected.

Also note that if there are two identical file names

that were created in both transaction FILE and

transaction SF01, the physical destination

associated with them may still be different. As the

client-specific definition always has priority over

the cross-client definition, a read program will try

to find the archive files under the path specified in

transaction SF01.
