Not that I'm aware of. You could try building your own function module reading the specific db tables which hold this data.

Hi Kaushik!

Not directly - and I never found a transaction, where only one menue-path exists, there were always several hits.

But maybe you want to put parts of the following coding into a own FM:

TEXT_UPPER_CASE = TEXT.
TRANSLATE TEXT_UPPER_CASE TO UPPER CASE.

select * from smensapnew into table i_smensapnew.
select * from smensapt into table i_smensapt where spras = sy-langu.

DESCRIBE TABLE I_SMENSAPNEW LINES LIN.
IF LIN = 0.
  MESSAGE S265(SF).
ENDIF.
SORT I_SMENSAPT BY OBJECT_ID.
SORT I_SMENSAPNEW BY OBJECT_ID.

LOOP AT I_SMENSAPNEW.
  CLEAR SWITCH.
  IF I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORT = TEXT
                               OR I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORT = TEXT_UPPER_CASE.
    SWITCH = 'X'.
  ENDIF.
  READ TABLE I_SMENSAPT WITH KEY OBJECT_ID = I_SMENSAPNEW-OBJECT_ID
                                          BINARY SEARCH.
  IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    I_SMENSAPT-TEXT = '???'.
  ENDIF.
  SEARCH I_SMENSAPT-TEXT FOR TEXT.
  IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
    SWITCH = 'X'.
  ENDIF.

  IF SWITCH = ' '.  CONTINUE. EXIT.  ENDIF.

  READ TABLE I_SMENSAPT WITH KEY OBJECT_ID = I_SMENSAPNEW-OBJECT_ID
                                          BINARY SEARCH.
  IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    I_SMENSAPT-TEXT = '???'.
  ENDIF.
  WRITE: /  TEXT-015, AT 20 I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORT(20),
                            AT 40 I_SMENSAPT-TEXT(40).
  FORMAT INTENSIFIED OFF.
  DO.
    READ TABLE I_SMENSAPNEW WITH KEY OBJECT_ID = I_SMENSAPNEW-PARENT_ID
                                                          BINARY SEARCH.
    IF SY-SUBRC NE 0. EXIT. ENDIF.
    IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
      READ TABLE I_SMENSAPT WITH KEY OBJECT_ID = I_SMENSAPNEW-OBJECT_ID
                                                          BINARY SEARCH.
    ELSE.
      I_SMENSAPT-TEXT = '???'.
    ENDIF.
    IF I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORTTYPE = SPACE.
      CLEAR I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORT.
    ENDIF.
    WRITE: / TEXT-016, AT 20 I_SMENSAPNEW-REPORT(20),
                                  AT 40 I_SMENSAPT-TEXT(40).
  ENDDO.
  FORMAT INTENSIFIED ON.
  ULINE.
ENDLOOP.

Hi kaushik,

try this out.

The function CACS_APPL_GET_SET must be called to determine the current application.

If you want to check several InfoSets in a single step, got to the initial screen of the InfoSets component, select the InfoSets that you want to check, and choose the menu path Goto -> More Functions -> Check and Generate.

Hope this helps u,

Nagarajan.

You can use transactions...

search_sap_menu

search_user_menu

This will show the menu access sequence for the transaction.

PF-STATUS for a particular screen of a program is a runtime attribute. You will be able to assign some pf-status, enable or disable some function keys during runtime. I don't think you can get that information anywhere. Try these function modules: RS_CUA_ACTIVE_FUNCTION_DIALOG

RS_CUA_GET_STATUS_FUNCTIONS

RS_CUA_GET_FUNCTIONS

Hi Kaushik!

Are you mixing up function code and transaction code?

In status of screen function codes are defined - but they are not linked to a menu (EXIT, BACK, CANC,...).

Transaction codes can be part of several menues (MM01, WB01, ...), but seldem they are part of screen status.

What's your need?
