SRT379
- Skipping selection screen only possible when starting report with variant ?The SAP error message SRT379 indicates that the system is trying to skip the selection screen for a report, but this is only possible when the report is executed with a variant. This error typically occurs when a user attempts to run a report that is designed to be executed with predefined parameters (a variant), but they are not using a variant when starting the report.
Cause:
The primary cause of this error is that the report is configured to allow execution without displaying the selection screen only when a variant is specified. If you attempt to run the report without a variant, the system will not allow you to skip the selection screen, leading to this error message.
Solution:
To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
Use a Variant:
- When executing the report, ensure that you select a variant that has been previously defined. You can do this by:
- Going to the report execution screen.
- Selecting the variant from the dropdown list or creating a new variant that includes the necessary selection criteria.
Create a Variant:
- If no suitable variant exists, you can create one:
- Execute the report normally (without skipping the selection screen).
- Enter the desired selection criteria.
- Save the selection criteria as a variant by clicking on the "Save" button (usually represented by a disk icon) and providing a name for the variant.
Check Report Settings:
- If you have the necessary authorizations, check the report's settings in the ABAP program to ensure that it is configured correctly to allow for variant execution.
Consult Documentation:
- Review the documentation for the specific report to understand its requirements and how to properly use variants.
