Scanning for a String in SAP Repository?

[Former Member]

Hello all,

soon we have a company code merge in our company.

So we need a tool to scan all sources on the System where the Company code is hard in the code.

i.E: Reports, Function Modules, SAP Script Forms, Methods of Objects etc.

To Program this piece of code may not the problem for me, but before I start I wanted to ask if there is a "official" solution from SAP.

For Reports I found the following Report:

RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN

Just that you get a feeling what I am searching for.

Hi Lars,

     I suppose the program RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN can be used for searching a string in objects other than reports also. If you see the input for the program, it has a field Program Type which will give you wide range of options.

Hi Athreya,

yes I see now. But it doesnt work  with SAP Script and Smartforms, but for this there is maybe an other solution, or I program it by myself.

For Smartforms, you can scan function groups /1BCDWB/SF*

If you have report RS_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN in your system as well, use that one, it's newer and has a few more features.

Not sure if there is something for SAPScripts, get rid of these anyway on this occasion

I would but thats not in my decision 😉

I found out our Smartforms are clean. For the SAP Scripts i write a Small ABAP.

Thanx a lot..

Hi,

for this scope, also, you can verify transaction code_scanner.

Check this and see if it is ok for your request.

If your problem is solved, closed this issue, please.

Hi,

You can try with AFX_CODE_SCANNER instead of RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN.

Thanks,
