SAP SD - transaction MCSI

SAP SD - transaction MCSI

SAP SD - transaction MCSI

(OP)
I have been asked to support SD in a 4.5 system.  Users are asking to save screen variants of query results after executing MCSI.  Although the option is available in the menu, the options are disabled.

Is there a setting that would allow the users to save the column layout after they have positioned the columns in a sequence that meets there needs? Is this something related to authorizations, or is this just a standard menu and saving screen variants (or layouts) is not supported and this is the reason the options are disabled?

Thank you for your reply,
baktech

RE: SAP SD - transaction MCSI

yes there is. Variants by default cannot be saved unless you have the correct settings on your user profile

transaction code SU01
enter your user name
Goto the parameters tab
add the paramter ID

SD_VARIANT_MAINTAIN

and values : XXXX    XXX XX

cheers

One thing I failed to mention in my initial post is that they can save selection variants but not layout variants.  I did try your solution but it hasn't solved the issue.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thank you very much for your reply.

Ah...,

i see your issue. This type of report to the best of my knowledge cannot have a layout variant saved.

One alternative approach is to write an infoset Qry/ SAP Query using this same table

Use a ALV grid as the output

this will allow you to save a layout variant.

We have done this for this table.
Much better presentation

If you have access to SQ02/SQ01 you should be able to build the QRY
