Title

Purpose

After an upgrade, the following problems occur with variants that were created for Report Writer report groups:

  • After an upgrade from 3.0/3.1 to 4.0 or from 4.0 to 4.5/4.6, variants for Report Writer report groups are no longer available.

Cause and Prerequisites

  • From 3.1 to 4.0 or 4.0 to 4.5, the names of the programs generated by the Report Writer had to be changed. For this reason, the variants from the 3.0/3.1 or 4.0 system can no longer be assigned to the report groups after the upgrade.

Solution

After the upgrade, run the RGRRCONV_VAR program in the affected client.

Enter the old release for the P_REL_F parameter (before the upgrade).

The report groups (for which the variants are to be converted) can be restricted by using the SO_LIB (libraries) or SO_RGJNR (report groups) selection options.

You can only convert variants for report groups that have been re-generated after the upgrade. Therefore, before starting the conversion program, generate the affected report groups using the mass generator (transaction GR55 -> Utilities -> Mass Generator).

The RGRRCONV_VAR program is a help report that can be used to convert most of the variants. For technical reasons, there may be situations in which a full conversion is not possible. In this case, you need to manually postprocess the affected variants.

Test the variable conversion carefully in a test system or test client.

Note:

For technical reasons, it is not possible to convert single values for set variables (group variables).

  • Example 1:
    Cost center group: H1234
    or value(s) : _______ to: ________
    Is converted correctly.
  • Example 2:
    Cost center group: _______
    or value(s) : 2300 to: 3450
    Cannot be converted for technical reasons. The missing values must be manually postprocessed after conversion.
