R3_SET_SELECT_OPTION

The R3_SET_SELECT_OPTION script element defines an individual selection criterion. You can call it several times in succession to determine several selection criteria. They are collected and passed on when you use R3_ACTIVATE_REPORT or R3_CREATE_VARIANT the next time.

Important! When you are using R3_ACTIVATE_REPORT or R3_CREATE_VARIANT several times in the script of your SAP job, make sure that the selection criteria are set individually for each use. They are not automatically passed on.

R3_SET_SELECT_OPTION SELNAME='MIN_AGE',KIND='P',LOW='17',SIGN='I'
R3_CREATE_VARIANT REP=REPORT01,VAR=NEW,TEXT='New variant'
