Call transaction using bdc table and return

[Clemenss]

Hi,

I'm facing this task: From an ALV list I want to call SE71 forms designer for a selected row.

As SE71 does not have any memory fields which I can set before I can not use 'AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN'.

So I fill the values for language, client, form name in a bdc table and use CALL TRANSACTION 'SE71' USING lt_bdcdata.

Works fine, but when I leave the transaction I get back to the selection screen. So how to go directly back to my list?

Will I have to use CALL DIALOG and how to (never did!)?

Regards and TIA

Clemens

You mean it goes to the initial screen of SE71, right?

The dialog module EDIT_FORM is called by function module EDIT_FORM. Please try using the function module EDIT_FORM, this will surely solved the problem.

    call function 'EDIT_FORM'
      exporting
        form                    = <name_of_form>
*   LANGUAGE                = SY-LANGU
        DISPLAY                 = ' '
*   COMPONENT               = 'HEADER'
     exceptions
       unknown_activity        = 1
       unknown_component       = 2
       others                  = 3
              .

Also, if you look inside the function module, you can go to any section of the sapscript form. Just use the appropriate component in your call, the default is HEADER.

Code from the EDIT_FORM function module

 
  IF COMPONENT <> 'HEADER'       AND
     COMPONENT <> 'PARAGRAPH'    AND
     COMPONENT <> 'STRING'       AND
     COMPONENT <> 'PAGE'         AND
     COMPONENT <> 'WINDOW'       AND
     COMPONENT <> 'PAGE_WINDOW'  AND
     COMPONENT <> 'LAYOUT'       AND
     COMPONENT <> 'DOCUMENTATION'.

Clemens, did this work for ya?

No.

EDIT_FORM only works if you pass a table with lines. I knew that function before. I want to call transaction SE71 bypassing selection screen and return.

OK, it is not possible.

did you read my question? If so, do it again.

If you still do not understand why your help is worthless, ask me why.

Hi Clemens,

I have the same requirement, and I am very pessimistic about it...

Were you able to solve the problem with returning to your list / transaction, skipping the selection screen?

Thanks and cheers,
