Re: how to create own data in user profile

I feel like this should have been reported to SAP OSS if that's standard program...

Or are you trying to ask how can custom ABAP report take over default output device from User profile? Then you should have searched first, because it's a fairly basic question. On the other hand, SCN discussions on this topic have been littered by folks neglecting to search for solution themselves before posting, so here goes - this little program illustrates how to get default output device:

DATA: gf_valid TYPE abap_bool ,

      gs_pri_params TYPE pri_params.

 

CALLFUNCTION'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS'

  EXPORTING

    no_dialog             = abap_true

  IMPORTING

    out_parameters        = gs_pri_params

    valid                  = gf_valid

  EXCEPTIONS

    archive_info_not_found = 1

    invalid_print_params  = 2

    invalid_archive_params = 3

    OTHERS                = 4.

 

write: gs_pri_params-pdest .

Yes, the IMPORTING parameter VALID must unfortunately be supplied.

cheers
