ZLISTCUBE: an Alternate to LISTCUBE

Applies to: SAP BW 3.0b, SAP BW 3.5, Will also work on SAP BI 7 For more information, visit the Business Intelligence homepage.

Summary Standard ‘LISTCUBE’ Transaction in SAP BW has got some limitations like a mandatory Pre-Selection screen for all the infoprovider with many infoObjects and we do not have an option to skip this Pre-Selection or to save the Pre-Selection condition as a Variant to use it for next time.

This Journal is to demonstrate a code ‘ZLISTCUBE’ which is a modified version of standard ‘LISTCUBE’ code and will give the user with an option to skip the Pre-Selection screen.

Scope of the ‘ZLISTCUBE’ Program: 1. To Bypass the Pre-Selection Screen

2. To maintain a SAVE and USE VARIENT option at the Pre-Selection screen* (*Under development)

Why and Where to use ‘ZLISTCUBE’ instead of Standard ‘LISTCUBE’

Standard ‘LISTCUBE’ Transaction in SAP BW has got some limitations like a mandatory Pre-Selection screen for all the infoprovider with many infoObjects and we do not have an option to skip this Pre-Selection or to save the Pre-Selection condition as a Variant to use it for next time.

This Journal is to demonstrate a code ‘ZLISTCUBE’ which is a modified version of standard ‘LISTCUBE’ code and will give the user with an option to skip the Pre-Selection screen for those Infoproviders that contains many InfoObjects.

Note: This Documentation only provides the first scope i.e. To Bypass the Pre-Selection Screen. The Scope 2 is still in progress and will update you in my next upgraded documentation/Journal.

Scope 1: To Bypass the Pre-Selection Screen

Step (1)

Go to Tcode SE38 and past the below ZLISTCUBE code.

Step (2)

Go To Tcode SE51 (Screen Painter) and call screen program ‘RSDD_SHOW_ICUBE’ and screen ‘2000’ and press copy to screen Program ‘ZLISTCUBE’ Screen ‘2000’

Step (3)

Go To Tcode SE41 (Menu Painter) and call Menu ‘RSDD_SHOW_ICUBE’ and Status ‘PF_2000’

Copy the status as “ZLISTCUBE” and Status ‘2000’

Once done, please open “ZLISTCUBE” and Status ‘2000’ in change mode and open Application toolbar and add an item ‘SAVE’ along with icon ‘ICON_SYSTEM_SAVE’



Step (4)

Go to Tcode SE93 (Maintain Transaction code) and create a T-Code for program ‘ZLISTCUBE’



Working with ‘ZLISTCUBE’ program

Run Tcode -> “ZLISTCUBE”

System prompts for your choice:

Choose your option whether you want to Skip the Pre-Selection screen where you do not want to do any pre-selection.

If your choice is then the program bypasses the pre-selection screen and will show you all the InfoObjects listed in the infoprovider and here you can choose the infoObject selection on which you want to view the data.



Here you will obviously have an option to come back and choose your desired infoObjects when ever you want during execution, where as in the standard ‘LISTCUBE’ program you have to totally come out of the “LISTCUBE” transaction and you need to choose the infoObjects at Pre-selection screen and also at normal selection screen.

Note: If you are using / trying to view all the infoObjects at this level after you have skipped the Pre-selection screen, then the system raises and message saying ‘Too many objects for the list output’ So we have to minimize the no of objects/columns as this is a system limitation.

So you can come back and trim the infoObject as needed Here you can also come back to the selection screen at any time to add the InfoObjects that you have missed to

view with out going back to pre-selection screen.

If your choice is then the system will take you to pre-selection screen with out bypassing it.

System prompts standard message just as in Standard “LISTCUBE” program



Pre-Selection screen in ZLISTCUBE:

Scope 2

Note: Documentation only provides the first scope (1) i.e. To Bypass the Pre-Selection Screen. The Scope (2) is still in progress and will update you in my next upgraded documentation/Journal.



Scope 2 is under development and it provides us with a flexibility of saving the Pre-selection as a variant and uses it any time.

*** Under development and will be provided in my next article.
