Accessing Object Application Tool from user exit

Former Member — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 22:30:47 GMT

There is an object application tool that shows on the sales order form that allows users to attachi files and create notes, among other things, to a sales order. The program associated with this tool is SAPLSGOSDS.

I need to use the CREATE NOTE portion of this tool to attach a note to my sales order from a user exit. I will know the title and note details at runtime and don't want the NOTE tool popping up on the screen waiting for the user to fill it out. I just want to access this tool from my user exit to create this note for a sales order behind the scenes.

What is the best way programmatically to do this? Is there a simple method or function call I can make to do this or do I need to somehow call the SAPLSGOSDS program with parameters to hide the input screens, or just include a few of its include files in my program so I can instantiate the object for that and call the appropriate instance methods?

Any samples would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott

You can create the note by calling the FM SO_OBJECT_INSERT in the user-exit (e.g. USEREXIT_SAVE_DOC_PREPARE) of Sales Order. You need to remember that the functionality of GOS will only be available once Sales Order is created i.e. VA02 and VA03.


* note header data
L_OBJ_DATA-OBJLA = sy-langu..
L_OBJ_DATA-OBJDES = 'Testing from user-exit'.
L_OBJ_DATA-OBJSNS = 'O'.
L_OBJ_DATA-FILE_EXT = 'TXT'.

* note content
append 'note line 1' to lt_objcont.
append 'note line 2' to lt_objcont.

* Get folder
  call function 'SO_FOLDER_ROOT_ID_GET'
       exporting
            region    = 'B'
       importing
            folder_id = folder_id
       exceptions
            others    = 1.

  call function 'SO_OBJECT_INSERT'
       exporting
            folder_id             = folder_id
            object_type           = 'RAW'
            object_hd_change      = l_obj_data
       importing
            object_id             = l_obj_id
       tables
            objhead               = lt_objhead
            objcont               = lt_objcont
       exceptions
            active_user_not_exist =   35
            folder_not_exist      =    6
            object_type_not_exist =   17
            owner_not_exist       =   22
            parameter_error       =   23
            others                = 1000.
