General
In a report tree, you can
- order reports (ABAP reports, queries, data recalls (...)) and variants according to freely chosen criteria
- generate, save and redisplay lists
Display and maintenance
You use the Transaction SARP to display report trees. The reports appear directly in the tree structure.
In customizing you can set up transactions to display special report trees.
You use the Transaction SERP to create and change several report trees in any system. Only the structure nodes are visible in the tree. The reports (variants, lists...) assigned to a structure node are displayed as node contents when selecting the relevant node.
Authorizations
You can assign authorizations for each node in a report tree. When you display a node, the system checks that you have the appropriate authorizations.
Initial Screen
Create
To create a report tree, enter a name and choose Create. This takes you into the new tree structure where the root node has already been created.
Change
To change a report tree, enter the name of the report tree you want to change and choose Change. This takes you into the tree structure where you can modify the node contents (see also Choose).
Display
To display a report tree, enter the name of the report tree you want to display and choose Display. This takes you into the tree structure where you can display the node contents (see also Choose).
Delete
To delete a report tree, enter the name of the report tree you want to delete and choose Delete. This deletes the tree structure and the user-specific settings, as well as any saved lists and customer-specific texts attached to the nodes.
Tree Structure
Other tree
To jump to the structure of a different report tree, choose Other tree. This takes you to a dialog box where you can enter the name of the tree.
Save
With the function Save you can save the tree structure. The functions Reassign, Delete, Change node text, Insert buffer, but not Create, which change the tree structure, all only affect the displayed structure. Only with Save is the changed structure written to the database.
Copy
To copy the structure of the report tree currently displayed, choose Copy. The system then copies the structure, the short texts, and the node contents. You can choose whether to copy the texts only in the logon language or in all languages. If you wish, you can also copy any saved lists stored in the nodes. User-specific settings (e.g. initial position) are not copied.
NOTE: After copying, the system displays the structure of the tree you were in when you called the copy function; in order to edit your new copy, use the "Other tree" function or retrieve your copy using the SERP initial screen.
Create Variant
The Create variant function allows you to create variants for application report trees. These variants are copies the structure, short texts, and node contents of the tree are all copied into the new variant. You can choose whether to copy the texts only in the logon language or in all languages. If you wish, you can also copy any saved lists stored in the nodes to the new variant.
Tree variants can be edited just like normal report trees. Their names are made up of a four-digit tree name and the twelve-digit name of the variant.
NOTE: After copying, the system displays the structure of the tree you were in when you called the copy function; in order to edit your new copy, use the "Other tree" function or retrieve your copy using the SERP initial screen.
If multiple variants have been created for a single report tree, users are allowed to choose one of the variants for display instead of the original tree.
Compare
To compare two report trees, choose Compare. This function lists the differences in the tree structures and in the node contents. See also Compare Report Trees
Create
With the function Create you can create new nodes. You can create structure nodes and nodes of the type report (ABAP report, query, data recall...). Structure nodes are displayed directly in the tree structure. The reports are leaves in the tree structure. You display them with the function Select or by double-clicking the assigned node.
You create nodes in a dialog box. You define the node type by activating a pushbutton. Depending on the type various input fields are shown. After filling in the input fields you can add the node to be created on the dialog box with the function Save. You do not leave the dialog box, so that you can add other nodes. You leave the dialog box with the function Continue. If you have created a node without saving it you are shown a query, asking you whether the node should be saved. The function Preview gives you a preview of the tree structure with the added nodes. As in the transaction SARP the reports appear directly in the tree structure as leaves. The function Cancel leaves the dialog box without a save query.
Special features:
Structure nodes:
You can create lower-level or same-level structure nodes. Each time a check is made on whether you have change authorization for the preceding node. You specify a technical name and a short text for the node. There is a check on whether the technical names of the new nodes are unique.
Data recall, report portfolio, report writer:
Another dialog box is shown, in which the report is entered. With the function Continue you return to the first dialog box, in which the new entry can be saved.
Delete
With the function Delete you can delete a subtree. The subtree is deleted on which the cursor is placed. The subtree does not have to be selected. When deleting a check is made on whether you have change authorization for all nodes of this subtree.
Changing node texts
To change the text of the node on which the cursor is positioned, choose Change node text. You then see a dialog box containing the technical names and the old node texts. You can overwrite the old texts with the new.
Reassign
With the function Reassign you can reassign a selected subtree with the cursor position. Proceed as follows:
- Select the subtree to be reassigned
- Place the cursor on the node to which the selected subtree is to be attached.
- Execute the function Reassign.
When reassigning a check is made on whether you have change authorization for all nodes of the subtree and for the target position.
Select/deselect
With the function Select/Deselect you can select (deselect) the subtree on whose root the cursor is placed.
Choose
With the function Choose (double-click) you go to the node defined by the position of the cursor. This corresponds to the function Goto --> Node.
Expanding and collapsing sub-trees
The Expand sub-tree, Collapse sub-tree functions allow you to expand and collapse a sub-tree by placing your cursor on its root node.
Set focus
The Set focus function allows you to select the sub-tree that you have positioned your cursor on and displays the path to its root node at the top of your screen. From here you can expand sub-trees per double- click. Double-clicking on the root node returns you to the root node.
Node Attributes
The Node attributes function allows you to display and make changes to the following node attributes:
- Node Type (public or private):
Objects found under a public node are visible for all users. In private nodes, users see only those entries that he or she included in the node.
Public and private nodes are displayed in different color in the tree structure. - Authorization Group:
You can assign an authorization group to any node you want. This determines which users may work with the node. If no authorization group has been assigned to a node, then the node inherits the authorization group of its predecessor in the report tree.
Authorizations refer to object S_PROGRAM.
The (-->) Authorization groups on/off function allows you to display node authorizations in the tree structure.
Find objects
The Find objects function allows you to find reports in sub-trees. A subsequent screen allows you to enter search criteria for reports. The following search criteria can be entered:
- Report name: Technical name of the report (ABAP report, Report Writer report, transaction); user group name for queries
- Expanded report name: Technical name of the report for drilldown reports and report portfolio reports or query name for queries
Selection criteria
- Application
- Logical database
- From applicatio
