Is it possible to write a Batch Input program for transaction CAT2 ?

Former Member — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 09:23:09 GMT

Hi!

I need to insert new records for an employee with CAt2 but the grid like structure in the lower part seems to be inappropriate for the bdc technique ?

Would you please advice ? What can I do else?

Kind Regards.

Erkan.

Any comment ?

Check with bapi's

BAPI_CATIMESHEETMGR_INSERT.

BAPI_CATIMESHEETMGR_CHANGE

BAPI_CATIMESHEETMGR_DELETE

Also if you want BDC to be used, you can see a personal settings button in initial screen or in menu of CAT2 where a check box can be marked for avoiding the ALV display. Please note that BDC must not be used for Enjoy transactions.

perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_CURSOR'      'ITAB1-FIELD1'.

perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_OKCODE'       '=NEWL'.
"Fill Grid like structure (table control) with records from internal table (uploaded file entries)
"----------->>>>>>>>>
LOOP AT ITAB2.
V_COUNT = V_COUNT + 1.

perform bdc_dynpro      using 'SAPTIMESHEET' '0001'.

perform bdc_field           using 'AAAAAA'             'HRP01'.


IF V_COUNT1 = 40.
   V_COUNT1 = 1.
   perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_OKCODE'        '=P+'. "Next Page after 40 lines

ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

* After the loop statement continue the steps as per recording.

perform bdc_dynpro      using 'SAPLZAAA' '0001'.

perform bdc_field       using 'BDC_CURSOR'

There are plenty of notes related to using batch input for this transaction, so it should be possible.
