Capture User command in BDC

Former Member — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 18:24:09 GMT

Hi,

I am running through a problem where I want to capture the user decision and according to that run the BDC.

Here's the explaination.

While running the bdc 1 pop up will come which will decide whether to proceed or not.

If your selects 'do not proceed' then need to run the flush part of the bdc else data saving part of the bdc.

So I want to capture the ucomm in the bdc and then proceed accoringly

Thanks for your help.

Anmol Bhat.

No dear it is not like that,

while running the bdc 1 popup screen will come, user can click cont or cancel if he click cancel i have to go back else save the data.

So i need how to capture user command within running bdc..

I think now it is more clear.

Hi Anmol,

I am not sure of any other way .. One idea came to my mind. just after clicking the button check with implicit enhancements or badis where you can export the ok_code to memory and access it in your program and then toggle your screens.

Yes Keshav I also think this may be the solution, but any other possibility ?

Thanks ,

Since the SHDB recording gives you the hardcoded User command values along with the screens which is predefined before program execution .... i dont find any other way.

Keshav, I am curious, even if we capture the UCOMM , how would the OP use it in his custom program? Wouldn't that be a whole new CALL transaction?

@anmol, I am curious as to why you want to provide this ability to users? If they are not sure of their path, they can always use the online transaction right? Granted, they have to manually key in the data.And what happens today, when they want to go back ?

Hi,

I was looking something like if the user hits opt1 it should do some data savind part of the bdc or if he hits opt2 then it should do the flush part of the bdc..

I think this is hardly possible... any suggesion on this......

Thanks,

Anmol.

Not really possible in my opinion, BDC implies that you have prepared a fixed and correct path through the screen sequence from beginning to end before starting the processing. Just like TV before it became interactive

I believe I did something similar a few years back.

I had to create a partial BDC to get to the point of response from the popup.

Then I restarted the BDC & ran to completion based on input.

might sound goofy... but it worked.

can't remember how I got the response out.

might have been in an sy-field

Well, you can prepare a partial transaction to run in mode "E" (maybe even "N", not sure), then it stops on the desired screen and the user can do the rest manually. But how to make it continue from there in background, even branching into a different screen flow based on user input? I'm very interested to learn this as well.

@Thomas, my assumption is this BDC program is executed in the foreground? If it were to be executed in the background, would there be a user response to popup?

Sorry, I meant "dark" processing, as in a call transaction with mode "N" or "E".
