Populating fields when a transaction is opened

Former Member — Fri, 03 Nov 2006 17:21:30 GMT

Hi,

I am calling transaction FP40( Transfer Items ) from a custom application. In FP40, i have to populate the fields Business Partner, Contract Account under Selection details, and Contract Account under Target of Transfer. These fields will have to be filled by default when the screen is displayed. I have the values for all these fields in the calling program, but I am not able to set the values using SET PARAMETER ID: All these fields have Parameter IDs specified. What could be the reason? Is there any other way to achieve this ?

regards,

Rajesh.

i could not find the transaction in our system. Does it have dynamic screens? If so set the parameter ids for the initial driving screen to space and then try to set the parameter.

Hello Rajesh

I do not have access to a system where transaction FP40 exists. However, you could try and use function module ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION.

Hello Rajesh

I do not have access to a system where transaction FP40 exists. However, you could try and use function module ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION. I think the use of the parameters is quite obvious. If you cannot fill the fields on the initial screen using TABLES parameter SPAGPA_TAB you could try and use USING_TAB instead.
