Problem with copying a selection screen

Former Member — Fri, 14 Jan 2005 11:55:23 GMT

I am working in a multiple servers environment. In one of the development servers a copy of the program RFFOUS_C has been made for cheque printing and changes made to the copy Z-program. Now I want to copy this z-program to some other development server. I have done this by using upload/download for the main program as well as the includes associated with it (as seen in se80 screen)However the selection screen (defined in include) is not getting created. As a result of this, Im stuck!

Any ideas on how to proceed?

Regards,

Poonam

Hi Poonam, hi everybody,

you could try a transport of copies of that program, via transaction SE10. Create a transport_of_copies-request, then add your z*-report, then transport it to the destination server.

The selection screen is created when you activate the program. You should not attempt to move it manually. You can also use the GENERATE command in an ABAP to generate your Z-program ABAP which will also create the selection screen.

Let us know how it goes!

Hi Poonam,

Make sure you have the attributes of the program set exaclty as in the source system. In your system, when you copied from the standard program RFFOUS_C to a Z program, the attributes are automatically copied to your Z program. As a result the logical database to which RFFOUS_C refers is also copied. All logical databases have their own selection screens.

Now when you download the program and then upload it in a different system, you are not copying the attributes, you are only copying the code. So the selection defined by the logical database are not showing up.

Please make the necessary corrections and if this helps, please don't forget to reward with points.

Thanx a ton!! I had missed out the LDB name in the attributes while creating the program.
