• These are type 'M' programs in SAP.

EVENTS IN DIALOG PROGRAMMING:

1. PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT (PBO)

2. PROCESS AFTER INPUT (PAI)

3. PROCESS ON VALUE REQUEST (POVR)

Navigations to create a simple MPP program:

SE80 -> Select Program from drop-down list -> Specify program name starting with SAPMZ or SAPMY -> Press Enter -> Click on Yes to create object -> Create Top Include File by clicking on Continue icon in pop-up screens -> Save under a package -> Assign a request number -> MPP program with specified name is created with Top include File.

To create screen, Right click on program name -> Select Create -> Screen -> Opens Screen Description page -> Enter short description for screen -> Select screen type as NORMAL -> Click on LAYOUT pushbutton from application toolbar -> Opens Screen Painter -> Drag and drop two input fields from toolbar -> Likewise, create two pushbuttons -> Double click on each component -> Opens Attributes box -> Specify attributes for each screen component -> For pushbutton, specify FCT code -> Save the screen -> Click on Flowlogic pushbutton from application toolbar -> Opens Flow logic editor to create event functionalities for screen components -> Decomment PAI module -> Double click on PAI module name -> Click on Yes to create PAI module object -> Opens PAI module -> Specify the following code within module-endmodule statements:

Now double click on 'Includes' Folder (TOP INCLUDE FILE) -> Declare variables for input fields as follows:
