Where to check Prompt values in a data manager package?

[Former Member]

Hey Everyone,

I am using BPC 10 NW. I am executing a DM Package which is prompting for 8 text values which are being passed to script logic as parameters.

The requirement is that, suppose one user executes the package and then another user before running the package again wants to see the parameters entered last time when the package was executed, can he see this anywhere other than Package Log. Package Log as a solution is getting rejected as the user cant exactly interpret the values from there.

So is there a way, where are package logs can be checked, a report or something?

Also, Is there way that we can enter the values in promts using an Input Schedule, so that it remains in the Database?

I am comfused, kindly suggest some solution. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Mayank

Hi Mayank,

Package log is the correct solution. If "the user cant exactly interpret the values from there" - then BPC is not for this user

With the help of the complex ABAP development and some VBA you can create a button in the input form to get the last values. But it's a waste of time!

"Also, Is there way that we can enter the values in promts using an Input Schedule, so that it remains in the Database" - absolutely bad idea!

Hehe Thanks a lot, looks like it is actually not for this user 😉

And this bad idea, is it actually possible? and if yes how?

It's bad because if you have number of users working simultaneously using the same excel template - there is no warranty that the saved version will contain the latest DM variables info

In general you can pass DM variables from VBA but not for this case!
