You use screen variants to define the layout of the screen on which you make one of the following postings:

  • Manual reposting of costs
  • Manual reposting of revenues
  • Activity allocation
  • Manual cost allocation
  • Statistical key figures

A screen variant consists of variants for the individual transactions in manual actual postings (reposting costs or activity allocation for example).

Note:

Authorization object K_PVARIANT controls whether the screen variants can be accessed.

Example

Requirements

Check the settings in activity Maintain Controlling Area to check that cost accounting for the objects that you want to include in the screen variant is active in the relevant fiscal year. Examples of these objects include:

  • Cost centers
  • Order management
  • Projects
  • Cost objects
  • Sales and distribution documents

Standard settings

SAP supplies a wide variety of screen variants for the postings mentioned above.

Note

You cannot make changes to the standard system. If, however you need to make only minor changes, you should copy the standard delivery and adjust the copy to meet your requirements.

Recommendation

Activities

The screen variants supplied by SAP are displayed on the initial screen.

To create your own screen variants, proceed as follows:

Creating screen variants

  1. Determine what postings you want to make.
  2. Choose New entries.
  3. Enter a key and an explanatory text for the screen variant.
  4. Save your entries.

    Assigning variants for individual transactions

  5. Select a screen variant and, in the navigation tree, double-click on Define screen variants per business transaction.
  6. Choose New entries.
  7. Choose the transaction you require.
  8. Select the fields that you want to have included on the entry screen for the posting.

    The system provides different fields depending on the transaction

    Field selection is broken down into General fields, Sender fields and Receiver fields.

  9. Specify whether you want to use Individual entry or List entry.

    To do so, select the appropriate option in the Initial screen field under Additional data.

    Recommendation

    For complex postings, choose Individual entry. If you have selected a lot of fields for the entry screen, individual entry helps you retain a better overview.

    Selecting display variants for lists

  10. For the Overview list, you can select all line items for a display variant.

    To do so, under Additional data choose a variant.

    You can access the overview list from either the individual entry screen or the list entry screen.

  11. You can select a display variant for the navigation list by choosing a variant under Further data.

Under individual entry, you can switch between posting records using the navigation list.

Note

In the display variant for the overview list and the navigation list you specify what columns are to be displayed, their width, and the order in which they are displayed.

You can create your own display variants in the respective entry transaction. These are then displayed here and can be selected.

  1. You can select a transaction variant.

    To do so, under Further data choose a variant.

    Using the transaction variant and for both individual entry and list entry you can

    1. Define default values for particular fields
    2. Display or hide fields
    3. Change the order of the fields
  2. Save your entries.

Further notes

You can transport the screen variants straight away.

To do so, choose Table view -> Transport and enter the screen variants in a Customizing request.
