BDC for Custom Transaction Code

[Former Member]

Hi, Guru:

I already created a custom Transaction Code for a dialog program.

Can I use BDC for this custom transaction code. Thanks in advance.

Absolutely. There is no difference between your custom program and the standard SAP transactions other than the naming convention, so yes, you can do BDC over any transactions. Be aware, that BDC doesn't work so good when dealing with transactions that use Enjoy controls, such as tree structures. If your custom program doesn't have any controls, then there is no problem.

It will not work very good with your tree structure, table controls are a little funny as well, but you can still get it working with a TC, tree structures are apart of the control framework and will cause a problem in BDC.

Yes, you can use BDC on your custom dialog program. Beofre writing BDC, record your BDC with SHDB t-code.

generally we use BDC for almost all transactions whether it is standard or custom. Also, most of the transactions have Table Controls or Step Loops or Tree Structures and a BDC works for each of these transactions. The only thing u have to check is how to handle these ones in some situations. What code needs to be used so that data can be inserted into SAP.

Thanks a lot for your answer, Ramesh. Do you have BDC sample code for Table Control and Tree structure.
