Adding a hyperlink to a Dynpro in screen painter

former_member498918 — Thu, 22 Jun 2006 13:41:01 GMT

Is it possible to add a hyperlink to a screen in R/3 version 46C.

We have an on-line form for RTPs which contains a lot of information which isn't available in the SAP RTP screen. The easiest way for us to get this information to the purchasers would be to add a hyperlink from the RTP screen ( SAPLXM02 screen 0111 ) to the on-line form.

Many thanks

Karen

HI Karen

When an Internet user requests an ITS service by clicking on a URL hyperlink or keying in a URL address in a Web browser to run a IACEWT, the request is processed as follows:

1. The Web browser passes the request to the Web server.

2. The Web server calls the server-specific ITS extension WGate - WGate is the link between the ITS and the Web server. WGate is a Web server extension that encapsulates the various supported HTTP server interfaces such as: CGI (Common Gateway Interface), NSAPI (Netscape Server Application Programming Interface), ISAPI (Internet Server Application Programming Interface) in a transparent manner that passes the requested data to the ITS AGate component.

3. WGate forwards the request to the ITS server process called AGate (which may or may not reside on the same machine.)

4. AGate is the link between the ITS and the SAP R3 application server. AGate is the core processing component of the ITS. It receives Web browser request from WGate and communicates with the SAP R3 application server via the DIAG or RFC protocol.

5. AGate then processes the requests, and sends all relevant details (including logon information) to the SAP R3 system, which either starts the first dialog step of a new transaction of submits further data for the next dialog step of a transaction already started.

6. SAP R3 starts the transaction for the service requested and sends the screen output to AGate.

7. When the dialog step has finished, AGate retrieves the result from SAP R3, and is responsible for session management, including mapping of SAP R3 screen or function modules to HTML, web session timeout handling, SAP R3 connection management and generation of HTML documents that are sent back to the Web browser client.

8. AGate forwards the formatted HTML page to WGate.

9. WGate forwards the formatted HTML page to the Web server.

10. The Web server sends the formatted HTML page to the Web browser, where it can be viewed by the user.

The ITS is downward compatible, therefore the ITS release must be the same or higher than the SAP R/3 kernel release.

Good luck

You can add a text field, which responds to double click, then in the PAI you can call cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute like this:

Peter

CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute

EXPORTING

document = gv_docu_url

maximized = c_flagged

EXCEPTIONS

cntl_error = 1

error_no_gui = 2

bad_parameter = 3

file_not_found = 4

path_not_found = 5

file_extension_unknown = 6

error_execute_failed = 7

OTHERS = 8 .

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

MESSAGE.

ENDIF.

Hi Karen,

I think Peter's solution solves your issue.

YOu can also use the FM <b>call_browser</b> to open a link.

Regards,

Ravi

Thank you to everyone who replied.

A button and the code from Peter did the trick.

Thanks again
