Creating Custom (Very Simple) Program Inside SAP Which Will Keep Track About Patients

samnovice_new — Wed, 19 Sep 2012 12:24:56 GMT

Hello,

As the title states I would like to create custom, pretty simple program inside SAP which will keep track about patients. This program would have seven (6) columns:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So there would be a simple form which would users would use to insert data.

I would like to know following:

- can this be made in SAP (little custom program) and is there any good free tutorial you could recommend?

- is there perhaps some tool inside SAP which could help me build this custom program?

Any help is appreciated and many thanks in advance for prompt replies!

Sam

Hi Sam,

From what you describe I think you need the following:

create a DB table storing the data you need. The ABAP dictionary is at t-code SE11 start there and follow this: (a name convention for a non SAP objects should start with Z, in your case for example the table will have the name zpatients)

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21eb6e446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm

Create a selection screen that reads the data from screen and then updates the table.

(If you don't mind that other people will see it you can create a view in SE16)

And that's about it. You can also create a view for your table(SE16) or an ALV program to view the data that is stored in the DB table you have created something like this:

All the best, Let me know if you got it.

The above links should help you create what you need, else you can hire a part time developer to make it for you.
