SAP ALV question

Former Member — Mon, 21 Nov 2016 11:33:20 GMT

I create an ABAP program (Z_SD_List01) to show a SAP ALV by using se38.

If it requires to deploy to the UAT environment to let user to test it.

How can I convert the ABAP program to a new T-code, as we don't want user to go to se38 to run the program. Is it a common practice to convert it to a new T-code?

You need to assign the program to a transaction by SE93

It is a good practice to use a transaction code, because it's easier to manage authorizations only via transactions (as far as possible), rather than doing it for programs.

Is there any naming convention for new transaction code.

e.g Z_SD_0001

No there isn't, except the name of custom object, so transactions too, has to start with Z or Y, but of course it's a good practice to take a name convention, but in generally the rules depend on te company, I mean every company can use an own name convention.

You can use a yours one, but you have to be carefull not to create conflicts
