Reg. Update and CATT mode in BDC
Hello friends,
Whn we create new BDC recording in that recording parameters having update mode and CATT mode. so I want to know abt Update mode (Asynchronous, synchronous and local) and CATT mode in BDC.
Thanks.
MarmikHi
CATTMODE
CATT mode (controlling a CATT procedure)
The CATT mode can have the following values:
' ' No CATT procedure active
'N' CATT procedure without single screen control
'A' CATT procedure with single screen control
UPDATE upd
Effect
The specified update mode upd defines the update type. This can have one of the following values:
'A' Asynchronous update
'S' Synchronous update
If the addition UPDATE is not specified, the processing mode is set to 'A' .
synchronous update
In synchronous update, you do not submit an update request using CALL FUNCTION... IN UPDATE TASK. Instead, you use the ABAP statement COMMIT WORK AND WAIT. When the update is finished, control passes back to the program. Synchronous update works in the same way as bundling update requests in a subroutine (PERFORM ON COMMIT). This kind of update is useful when you want to use both asynchronous and synchronous processing without having to program the bundles in two separate ways.
Asynchronous update
A typical SAP system installation contains dialog work processes and at least one update work process. The update work processes are responsible for updating the database. If, in a dialog work process, the function modules stored in interim storage through CALL FUNCTION ... IN UPDATE TASK are released for processing by means of the ABAP statement COMMIT WORK, the dialog work process will not wait for the update process to finish. This kind of update is called asynchronous update. -
Update Mode and CATT Mode in BDC
Hi Experts,
when we start the recording then we pass the following steps..
1.Recording Name
2. Trasaction Code
3. Update Mode-------*Local
*Synchronous
*Asynchronous
4.CATT Mode------*No Catt Mode
*CATT without indivisual screen control
CATT with indivisual screeen control
so i want to know that What is UpdateMode and CATT Mode (seperate meaning of three Categories)..
i already searched in this forum,
Thanks in Advance.......
Kind Regards

Hi Friends
What is the Use of CATT MODE in recording parameters of SHDB Recording .
Can u pls give some valuable information
Regards
Krishnan R.Hi Krishnan,
CATT stands for "Computer Aided Test Tool". When the transaction contains more number of sub-screens or if the transaction is more complex to handle (for example, user defined z-transactions), then we use CATT option as they are reusable tests. -
Diffrence b/w sync & async mode in bdc.
hi all,
wat is the diffrence b/w sync & async mode in bdc? plz explain interview point of view.
regards
deepakA Asynchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction does not wait for any updates it produces to be completed. It simply passes the updates to the SAP update service. Asynchronous processing therefore usually results in faster execution of your data transfer program.
S Synchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction waits for any updates that it produces to be completed. Execution is slower than with asynchronous updating because called transactions wait for updating to be completed. However, the called transaction is able to return any update error message that occurs to your program. It is much easier for you to analyze and recover from errors
one simple example : You are creating sales order from file and also you want to update header text of sales order.
when you want to update sales order header text,you need to use save_text function module ,here you need to pass sales order number.
when you use call transaction update 'A', data will update transaction level and it goes to the next record,here it will not wait for database .
when you use call transaction update 'S',data will update transaction level and it will update database then it goes next record.
if you want to update header text,then you need to use sync update
database commit -
comitt work - it will update data in database sucessfully
roll back - it will not update in database.
Thanks

Hi Experts,
I am using 1 BDC to upload MDQ and NWC data in mm42.
This BDC is working fine in foreground mode but it is not updating in background mode.
Why this is happening and how to resolve it.
rgds
AmitHi,
If you are working through presentation server back ground mode doesnot work(gui_upload)
if you are working through application server it will run in background mode(open Dataset)
Hope it may help

Screen resolution with Mode in BDC
Hi All,
In call transaction statement I am using mode as well as options from statement but 1 error is coming that i can't use mode and update with options from statement. But I want to run in background as mode 'N' as well as I want the default screen resolution.
Please tell me some way to solve this issue.
Regards,
SivaramHi ,
You need not use mode. You can set the values in OPTIONS itself.
Eg :
Declare a structure of type ctu_params.
Data :gs_params type ctu_params.
gs_params-dismode = 'N'.
gs_params-defsize = 'X'.
Call transaction 'MM01' using gt_bdccat
messages into gt_bdcmsg
options from gs_parms.
Try this .

Computer Aided test tool in processing BDC
Hi friends,
I have some doubts regarding the CATT mode in Processing BDC(SHDB transaction).
1) What's the use of this CATT mode in BDC Processing?
2) What is use of"NO CATT, CATT WITHOUT INDIVIDUAL SCREEN CONTROL, CATT WITH INDIVIDUAL SCREEN CONTROL" these three modes in Processing BDC?
3) What is the difference between the three modes?Hi,
I have searched in the forum regarding this topic. I'am getting only answers like whats is CATT,and what is it used for. Iam unable to find the exact difference between "CATT WITHOUT INDIVIDUAL SCREEN CONTROL" and " CATT WITH INDIVIDUAL SCREEN CONTROL". -
Error in BDC using 'N' mode while creating production order
Hi,
I am trying to create a production order ( transaction CO01 ) by using a BDC. I just have to fill the header details, components , assign the component to operation , save and exit. When I am running the BDC in 'A' or 'E' mode, it works fine. The 'E' mode doesnt stop anywhere and successfully creates the production order . But when I change the mode to 'N', it throws an error "No batch input data for the screen SAPLCOKO1 0115". I am using Call transaction in BDC to create the production order. What could be the issue? Can someone throw some light?
Thanks,
SuganyaHi Suganya,
I guess that Chandra Madapati is right. I also faced the same issue for another transaction.
If you want to disable the batch input (sy-binpt), you can use the addition OPTIONS FROM in call transaction statement.
It refers to the structure CTU_PARAMS in ABAP dictionary and contains the following components:
Component
Meaning
DISMODE
Processing mode for batch input processing. Values as for the MODE addition.
UPMODE
Processing mode for batch input processing. Values as for the UPDATE addition.
CATTMODE
CATT mode for batch input processing. CATT means Computer Aided Testtool. While batch input is mostly used for data transfer, CATT processes are to be viewed as more complex transactions, since they are reusable tests. Values: " " (no CATT mode), "N" (CATT without single screen control), "A" (CATT with single screen control).
DEFSIZE
Selection as to whether the screens of the called transaction are displayed in the standard screen size. Values "X" (standard size), " " (current size).
RACOMMIT
Selection as to whether the COMMIT WORK statement terminates batch input processing or not. Values: " " (COMMIT WORK terminates processing), "X" ( COMMIT WORK does not terminate processing).
NOBINPT
Selection for the symbol field sy-binpt. Values: " " (sy-binpt contains in the called transaction "X"), "X" (sy-binpt contains in the called transaction " ").
NOBIEND
Selection for the system field sy-binpt. Values: " " (sy-binpt contains "X" after the end of the batch input data in the called transsaction ) "X" (sy-binpt contains " " after the end of the batch input data in the called transaction).
In this, if you give NOBINPT as 'X', the system field sy-binpt becomes disabled. You can also set the processing mode and update mode using DISMODE and UPMODE respectively.
Thanks & Regards,

BDC - not working in 'No Display' mode
Hi Friends,
I have written a BDC for TCode O3URV_SS0.I have used CALL TRANSACTION for that.For capturing messages I have used application log.
In 'N' mode this BDC is not performing properly.For a new set of line item and a header data it should save that records and generate a document number.But in 'N' mode the BDC is working for 1st line item only.
This BDC is working fine in 'A' mode.
Please help me to solve this problem.Moderator message - Welcome to SCN

Wht is the UPDATE mode in BDC?What is the imporatance for that.
<b>A</b> Asynchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction does not wait for any updates it produces to be completed. It simply passes the updates to the SAP update service. Asynchronous processing therefore usually results in faster execution of your data transfer program.
Asynchronous processing is NOT recommended for processing any larger amount of data. This is because the called transaction receives no completion message from the update module in asynchronous updating. The calling data transfer program, in turn, cannot determine whether a called transaction ended with a successful update of the database or not.
If you use asynchronous updating, then you will need to use the update management facility (Transaction SM12) to check whether updates have been terminated abnormally during session processing. Error analysis and recovery is less convenient than with synchronous updating.
<b>S</b> Synchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction waits for any updates that it produces to be completed. Execution is slower than with asynchronous updating because called transactions wait for updating to be completed. However, the called transaction is able to return any update error message that occurs to your program. It is much easier for you to analyze and recover from errors.
<b>L</b> Local updating. If you update data locally, the update of the database will not be processed in a separate process, but in the process of the calling program. (See the ABAP keyword documentation on SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL for more information.)

Meaning of Update mode L in BDC
Dear All ,
I am not able to understand from help the meaning of Update mode 'L' in BDC call transaction . I will be thank full if any body can explain me in simple wayHi,
The three Update Modes of BDC are:
"A" synchronous update. Updates of called programs are executed in the same way as if in the COMMIT WORK statement the AND WAIT addition was not specified.
"S: Synchronous processing. Updates of the called programs are executed in the same way as if in the COMMIT WORK statement the AND WAIT addition had been specified.
"L" Local update. Updates of the called program are executed in such a way as if the SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL statement had been executed in it.

Screen Resolution problem in BDC
Hi,
I am writing a BDC for credit memo creation using FB65 transaction in 4.6b version.
I am facing BDC problems because of screen resolution. Is there a way to determine the number of lines items that may show up in the table control based on the resolution.
There is no position button available in 4.6b . also page down is not working.
Could anyone suggest an alternative?Hi,
Use the below syntax...
CALL TRANSACTION tcode... OPTIONS FROM opt
... OPTIONS FROM opt
Effect
Allows you to control processing using the values of the componetns of the structure opt, which must have the ABAP Dictionary type CTU_PARAMS. The components have the following meanings:
DISMODE
Display mode (like the MODE addition)
UPDMODE
Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
CATTMODE
CATT mode (controls a CATT)
CATT mode can have the following values:
' ' No CATT active
'N' CATT without single-screen control
'A' CATT with single-screen control
DEFSIZE
Use default window size
RACOMMIT
Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
NOBINPT
No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
NOBIEND
No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
'X' Yes
' ' No
If you do not use the OPTIONS FROM addition, the following control parameter settings apply:
DISMODE
From addition MODE
UPDMODE
From addition UPDATE
CATTMODE
No CATT active
DEFSIZE
Do not use default window size
RACOMMIT
Successful end on COMMIT WORK
NOBINPT
Batch input mode active ( SY-BINPT = X
NOBIEND
Batch input mode remains active after the BDC data -
How we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC
how we will maintain screen resolution for tmaintaining able control in BDC. can you give the code or how we have to set it
Hi,
You need to use the CTU_PARAM options with the call transaction method.This is used if you would like to do a commit work once call trnasaction is done. This has also got very important property, for example if your Screen resolution is different from others then the screen (Application) will be different that is you'll be having say 5 lines in your screen where as your friend will be having 8 or 10 so your program might fail in this case. If you set variable DEFSIZE as 'X' it will always use the default screen size and hence avoids error.
Use CALL TRANSACTION 'XXX' OPTIONS FROM w_ctu_params.( type CTU_PARAMS)
This structure contains the follwing.
DISMODE : Display mode (like the MODE addition)
UPDMODE: Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
CATTMODE: CATT mode (controls a CATT)
CATT mode can have the following values:
' ' No CATT active
'N' CATT without single-screen control
'A' CATT with single-screen control
DEFSIZE : Use default window size (Here we are handling those transaction by giving default window size)
RACOMMIT: Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
NOBINPT : No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
NOBIEND : No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
'X' Yes
This might help u in better understanding...

How to set screen resolution in BDC
hi pls give info regarding how to set resolution for screen
thank you
Ravihi,
For screen resolution use ctu_params, with default size
Data : f_option type ctu_params,
f_option-updmode = 'S'.
f_option-defsize = 'X'.
f_option-dismode = 'N'.
call transaction 'VA01' using bdcdata options from f_option messages into bdcerror.
CALL TRANSACTION tcode... OPTIONS FROM opt
... OPTIONS FROM opt

From addition UPDATE
CATTMODE
No CATT active
DEFSIZE
Do not use default window size
RACOMMIT
