CALL Transaction

Former Member

I am not too familiar with BDC. We have a custom program that uses the call transaction 'VL02N' using bdctab mode 'N' messages into t_message command. What this program does is automatically picks and posts the deliveries ever night. It works fine only it won't posts the deliveries with more than 8 item lines.

The error is : Field does not exist in the screen SAPMV50A 1000

What's weird is it does not post on the scheduled job but it posts fine when I run the program interactively.

Could someone please help me how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.

Hi Saphelp,

Also not too familiar with BDC - but my 2c worth...

BDCs (especially in background) run with a different (default) screen layout that can and is often different to what you see when you run it interactively. One very common difference is screen loops are usually smaller. I think this is to cater for 'old' displays that used to be limited to 640x480.

In short, change your BDC to only post <8 lines at a time. If you can split up the posting. If you can't. Try and code a 'page down' command and 'page down' after every 7 or 8 lines or so. You should be able to test this interactively as well.

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

N

I did BDC with VL02N several times and it should work fine, the clue it how you record session via SHDB: it is not reliable to fill in more than one table control line with delivery item data. To make the session robust you should enter each item via detailed screen, there is the menu command (sorry, I do not remember exact path).

Hope this helps somehow
