  Overview:
  The SAP transaction code OVCF is used to control reporting and info blocks. It is a part of the SAP Controlling (CO) module and is used to create, change, and display info blocks. Info blocks are used to store and display data in a structured way. 
  
  Functionality: 
  The OVCF transaction code allows users to create, change, and display info blocks. Info blocks are used to store and display data in a structured way. They can be used for reporting purposes, such as displaying financial information or other data. The OVCF transaction code also allows users to control the access rights of info blocks, so that only authorized users can view or modify them. 
  
  Step-by-step How to Use: 
  1. Enter the OVCF transaction code in the SAP command field. 
  2. Select the “Create” option from the menu bar. 
  3. Enter the name of the info block you want to create in the “Name” field. 
  4. Enter a description of the info block in the “Description” field. 
  5. Select the type of info block you want to create from the drop-down menu (e.g., financial statement, cost center report, etc.). 
  6. Select the “Save” button to save your changes. 
  7. To view an existing info block, select the “Display” option from the menu bar and enter the name of the info block you want to view in the “Name” field. 
  8. To change an existing info block, select the “Change” option from the menu bar and enter the name of the info block you want to change in the “Name” field. 
  9. To control access rights for an existing info block, select the “Control Access Rights” option from the menu bar and enter the name of the info block you want to control access rights for in the “Name” field. 
  10. Select “Save” to save your changes or “Cancel” to discard them. 
  
  Other Recommendations: 
  It is recommended that users familiarize themselves with all of the options available in OVCF before using it for any purpose, as it can be a complex tool with many features and options that may not be immediately apparent or intuitively understood by all users. Additionally, users should ensure that they have appropriate access rights before attempting to view or modify any info blocks using OVCF, as unauthorized access could lead to security issues or data loss.
