Parameterizing the text data recorded using SAPGUI.

Former Member — Mon, 20 Feb 2006 07:27:31 GMT

Hi all,

Is it possible to record the text input we are providing at item data level say for example,Packing item text for the transaction VA01 using SAPGUI recording.

I am able to capture the text input after recording those values inside but I am not able to parameterize so that I can change the data everytime to be given as input.

If it is possible to parameterize what steps that we need to followed?

It is urgent.

Regards,

Vishwakarma.

Hi,

I think you need to modify or create a field-exit. That will allow you to catch all value set into a field before SAP use it in the transactions.

i dont think u can use recording method to upload ur LONG TEXTS since these texts are not stored as other fields in the table. they can instead be put using FM 'SAVE_TEXT' in which u need to provide the id,object and name. These parameters u can have an idea by going into the SApscript editor of the text ( in the transaction itself, below the box where u enter the text, u have a DETAIL button, click it), then in the editor GOTO~~>HEADER~~> u ll c the parameters.

Text Name

Language

Text ID

Text object

These r to be passed to the FM to upload the text properly. The parameter NAME & ID depends on the item no.

other 2 are fixed.

Hope it helps.

Bikash

Hi Bikash and fredric,

I am using ECATT tool to record VAO1 in which the text needs to be maintained for a line item.

This text will vary depend upon the case and I need to parameterize it.But,as Bikash mentioned the text will not be stored like any field or data element,then is it any other way of capturing it?

Hi vishwakarma,

as i mentioned in my previous message, u can upload the text using function module 'SAVE_TEXT' n passing the 4 parameters. This u need to do after u have uploaded ur other details for the sales order. So, u ll have 2 sets of data in flat file. one flat fiel has sales order data which u can upload using CATT and the other file conatains only the item no. and texts related to every item. In ur text upload program, u ll have to loop thru ur data and call this FM to upload the texts.

Similarly, To read these texts from SAP, u use FM 'READ_TEXT'.

Bikash
