SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR disappear

[Former Member]

Hello!

I have a problem with SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR when I am calling BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE. The progress in Status Bar disappear when I execute this BAPI.

Hi Zuly,

I did not really understand your question (Also could not open the code - Please post it again in a notepad).  What you are describing is supposed to be normal behavior. Try this simple program to see how it works.

DATA lv_percentage(5).

DO 10 TIMES.

   lv_percentage = 10 + lv_percentage.

   WAIT UP TO 1 SECONDS.

   CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'

     EXPORTING

       percentage = lv_percentage

       text       = 'Going on'.

ENDDO.

You can call SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR display a text and some percentage and then after the BAPI call, display increased percentage by calling SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR again.

Hi Shravan,

Thank you for your reply,

my problem is: the progress indicator in status bar dissappear when I call BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE, after this BAPI is executed progress indicator appear again with the new percent value. But I need that progress indicator remain in status bar.

This is my code:

  CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'
    EXPORTING
      PERCENTAGE = 40
      TEXT       = TEXT.

  CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE'
    EXPORTING
      SALESDOCUMENT    = P_VBELN
      ORDER_HEADER_INX = HEADER_INX
    TABLES
      RETURN           = RETURN
      ORDER_ITEM_IN    = ORDER_ITEM_IN
      ORDER_ITEM_INX   = ORDER_ITEM_INX
      SCHEDULE_LINES   = SCHEDULE_LINES
      SCHEDULE_LINESX  = SCHEDULE_LINESX.

  CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'
    EXPORTING
      PERCENTAGE = 80
      TEXT       = TEXT.

I think the execution is very fast - to display the progress status. Try to Introduce a wait for a second before the BAPI call.

Thank you, I tried with this instruction before BAPI call, but doesn't work.

Hi Zuly,

Are you testing this in debugging? That might not work. Try increasing the wait time - say 3 sec? Does my demo program work for you?

Hi,

Your demo works fine. In debugging process is the same problem. I tried from1 to 15 seconds but doesn't work.

Hi Zuly,

It will not work in debugging. In a normal frontend run it should work with a few seconds of wait.
