Default lines in Planning Layout

Question: Can anyone tell me how and where you change the default number of lines in a planning layout, which currently defaults to 20.

I think the program LUPP_UPFRONT_SPREADS could be the place - however I would like help to determine the place to have the change made.

What is the practical limit to the number of default lines.

Thanks

Answer:
Hi Claire,

In oder to increase the number of empty lines, you could modify the
the constant "c_dummies_number" from value 20 to another value.
The constant "c_dummies_number" is located in the functiongroup
"UPP_FRONT_SPREADS"


However SAP does not recommend this.

Hi,

Could you tell me which fucntion module to use to modify the nb of rows. The standard is defined with 20 rows.

The function group is UPP_FRONT_SPREADS but there are several function modules within it.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
we had the same problem this morning.
The solution was to add the following line to table UPC_DARK2:

UPC_DARK2-PARAM = ' UPP_FRONT_SPREADS_DUMMIES'
UPC_DARK2-VALUE = Put here the number of rows

It should help.

Best regards,
Dan

I have tried your solution but it doesn't work.

Any other solution??

Answer:
Thanks atw. This seems to work nicely on a 3.2 system.

The rather unhelpful oss note is 414793 by the way (but no mention of the upc_dark2 setting).

Hi,

I have checked parameter UPP_FRONT_SPREADS_DUMMIES in the table UPC_DARK2 and it works on SEM-BW 3.1B SP14.
The layout in Excel has as many default lines as value for UPP_FRONT_SPREADS_DUMMIES. But I had to restart UPSPM (PlFolders)transaction after I changed the value of parameter to see layout with new amount of default lines.

Hope it could be useful.
Best regards
Dan
