ESS - Creating a Front End Selection Screen, that accesses SAP T-code

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have an ESS Portal in our company.

I have been given the following request:

For a specific transaction, create a selection screen in the portal that would be a modified version of the selection screen that exists in the SAP system.

From this front-end in the selection screen, the specific transaction within the SAP system would be accessed.

How is this done? What do I need to know about the overall process?

Please help.

Thanks,

John

Create the Transactio & its selelction-screen in the backend.. Ask your Portal team to create an SAP Transaction iView for this Tcode & assign it ot the Portal Roes of the Users in Question.

Just to clarify,

Create the transaction and selection screen in the SAP system.

Then ask the Portal team to create an iView for this transaction.

What if I need to say get the Internal SAP employee number from the user's sign on information?

Thanks,

You can use the function call RP_GET_PERNR_FROM_USERID in your Program. There are other ways too..

Thank You for the help.

So when the user access the ESS Portal Selection screen, and executes, it will go to the transaction within SAP and will fill in the relevant data into the standard selection screen?
