Calling transaction from workflow step ?

hi there,
is there any business object or apab-class with which i can directly call a transaction ?
i want to put in the fixed value PA71 for the transaction, and that should be started. but i can't find an OT for that !
best reg, Martin

Hello,
Create a method in the custom business object that you use in the workflow. While creating the method, check radio button "Transaction" and specify the transaction code that you want to call.
This radio button is present in the tab "ABAP" when you double click on the method.In this way you can call the TCode.
Hope this will help.
Regards,
Sam

Any program for calling bapi from ABAP step by step

points will be rewarded,
thank you,
Jagrut BharatKumar Shukla

Hi Jagrut,
BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
A BAPI is remotely enabled function module ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access. Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
Reading instances of SAP business objects
GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values, for example, company codes and material numbers.
The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved and returned to the calling program. The instance is identified via its key. The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method. BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed so that they can be called several times within one transaction. For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction, the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2. After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
Change( )
The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.
ex BAPI:
API_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1
BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2

EG::
Here is the step by step procedure for creating BAPIs.
There are 5 different steps in BAPI.
- Create BAPI Structure
- Create BAPI Function Module or API Method.
- Create BAPI object
- Release BAPI Function Module.
- Release BAPI object.
Step1. Creating BAPI Structure:
- Go to <SE11>.
- Select Data Type & Enter a name.
- Click on Create.
- Note: Always BAPI should be in a development class with request number (Not Local Object).
- Select Structure & hit ENTER.
- Enter the fields from your database. Make sure that the first field is the Primary Key Field.
- Then SAVE & ACTIVATE.
Step 2. Creating BAPI module:
- Enter TR.CODE <SE37>.
- Before entering any thing, from the present screen that you are in, select the menu
Goto -> Function Groups -> Create Group.
Enter a name (Note: This name Must start with ZBAPI)
Let this screen be as it is and open another window and there, enter TR.CODE <SE80).
Click on the Third ICON that says Inactive Objects.
Select the group that you just created and click on Activate.
Notice that the group you created will disappear from the list of inactive objects.
- Go back to ><SE37> screen and enter a name and hit <ENTER>. Then enter the group name that you just created and activated.
NOTE: When you release a function module the respective group will be attached to that particular application. It cannot be used for any other application. NEVER include an already existing group that is attached to another module.
Now click on the first Tab that says [ATTRIBUTES] and select the radio button that says remote-enabled module since we will be accessing this from any external system.
Then click on the second tab that says [IMPORT].
Enter a PARAMETER NAME, TYPE and the structure you created in the first step. Also select the check box Pa. All remotely enabled functional modules MUST be Pa enabled, where Pa means Passed by Value and if you dont select Pa, then that means it will be passed by reference..
Then click on tab that says [EXPORT].
Enter the following as is in the first three fields
RETURN TYPE BAPIRETURN (These 3 field values are always same)
Here also select Pa meaning Pass by value.
Note: BAPIRETURN contains structure with message fields.
Then SAVE and ACTIVATE.
Step 3. Creating BAPI object:
- Enter Tr.Code <SWO1> (Note. It is letter O and not Zero).
- Enter a name and then click on create. Enter details.
NOTE: Make sure that that Object Type and Program name are SAME.
- Enter Application M, if you are using standard table Mara. If you are using your own database then select Z at the bottom.
- Then hit <ENTER>.
- Now we have to add Methods. High light METHODS and then select the following from the menu:
Goto Utilities -> API Methods -> Add Methods.
- Enter function Module name and hit <ENTER>.
- Select the second FORWARD ARROW button (>)to go to next step.
- Check if every thing looks ok and again click on FORWARD ARROW button (>).
- Then select YES and click on <SAVE>.
- Now on a different screen goto TR.CODE <SE37>. Enter Function Module name and select from the top menu Function Module -> Release -> Release.
- Goback to TR.CODE <SWO1>.
Here select the menu combination shown below in the same order.
- Edit -> Change Release Status -> Object Type Component -> To Implemented.
- Edit -> Change Release Status -> Object Type Component -> To Released.
- Edit -> Change Release Status -> Object Type -> To Implemented.
- Edit -> Change Release Status -> Object Type -> To Released.
- Then click on <SAVE>.
- Then click on Generate Button (4th button from left hand side looks like spinning wheel).
- Then Click on the button that says PROGRAM to see the source code.
To check if this is present in work flow goto TR.CODE <BAPI>.
Here it shows business object repository.
- First click on the middle button and then select ALL and hit ENTER.
- Goto tab [ALPHABETICAL] and look for the object that you created. This shows that the BAPI object has been created successfully
Reward pts if found usefull :)

Calling Transaction from other system using RFC

Hi ,
I have one button on screen(say Screen-A), in ECC. when its pressed the transaction '/SAPAPO/BOPIN' gets called from APO.
For calling transaction from APO I am using FM - 'ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION'.
I want the initial screen of that transaction to retain some values which I fill on the Screen-A(the screen which has that button).
When I call the transaction from ECC itself (ex. C006), the initial screen of C006 retains the value on Screen-A.
I want the same to happen in case of calling transaction from APO.
How to achieve this? Would it need the changes in IMG (SPRO)?
Please note that, Screen-A is initial screen of transaction 'md05' and I want to retain vaules of Material, MRP Area, Plant.
Thanks,
Sujeet

Builld a RFC enabled FM () that wrap the call of Smartforms (*) in the other system.

Calling BSP from Workflow

Hi,
Can we call an BSP page from within workflow step and can it show in Universal worklist of the Enterprise Portal?
If it possible then from which version of Web application server and enterprise portal it is supported?
Thank you
arun

I am imaginating that you what to put the web page as an attachment in a work item.
Well, first try to put the URL of your app into the workitem description. If this solution is doesnt like you you can develop an ABAP application that shows your BSP and then just put this application in a transaction.
Note: check this blog
/people/thomas.jung3/blog/2004/08/26/updated-calling-a-bsp-application-from-a-sapgui-transaction
Then create a METHOD (in your business object) that executes this transaction, and use this method in your step.
Best regards
Ariel

Call transaction in Workflow doesn't work

Hi all,
I'm a strange problem.
I built a call transaction in a FM. If I test the FM the call transaction works fine.
if I put this FM in a workflow (in a class I build ad hoc for the WF) it doesn't work,
I check in degub the import partameters and it is ok.
I try to execute the FM also in UPDATE or in BACKGROUND task, or the call transaction in different MODE or UPDATE ways, but nothing.
any idea?
thanks
enzo

Hi,
Whether your BDC code in your function module is requesting any input from user?. If yes, make sure to pass values since you are calling through Workflow which dont popup BDC screens?.
Let me know your scenario is different than I told here.

Krishna

Call transaction from alv

i am calling a transaction from alv i want to select the check boxes on th called transaction and go to the next screen how do i do that

Hello Chandan
You have to handle the DOUBLE_CLICK event either in your callback form routine (FM-based ALV) or event handler method for event USER_COMMAND (ABAP-OO based ALV).
If you call the transaction directly you will not have the authority check for this transaction. If you need this, you can use function module ABAP4_CALL_TRANSACTION instead.
If you want to open the transaction in a new window you can use the static method CL_RECA_GUI_SERVICES=>CALL_TRANSACTION (no authority check!).

Call transaction from RFC?

Hi Experts,
I need to call Different transactions from a RFC.
I am looking for different approaches to achieve this.
One Idea is RFC will take input parameters as
-Transaction name
-Field names to be updated with its values (as a table)
Now in RFC, it should be able to update this transactionu2019s fields with the values provided in table parameter.
RFC will fill up the BDC table with the needed data, and will call the needed transaction to update the data.
Once the execution is complete, RFC will send back the different messages (error, info, and warning) through Table parameter.
Now, I do not have much of ABAP experience so I need your help in following
1)     Should I use BDC recording in RFC?
2)     Can BDC send back all the messages encountered while calling the transaction?
3)     Is there any other way to approach this requirement?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Ashish Shah

Hi Amitava,
This RFC might be called from any WebBased application , like Portal , Visual Composer or WebDynpro for Java.
One more idea , may be an extension to my current idea is:
To add one more input parameter to RFC, a table with single field of type string.
Populate this table with entire BDC recording for one particular transaction, and pass it as an input parameter of RFC.
Once in RFC , this BDC recording can be used to populate BDC table and then pass this table to call transaction statement.
Do you see any sense in this logic?
Regards,
Ashish Shah

Error calling transaction from a transaction

Hi,
I have created a transaction to batch Measurement Point readings for the PM Module. The batch uses a query to determine the tags required to update and it calls the "MeasurementPointWrite" transaction that I downloaded from SAP. My problem is when I run the batch transaction it reports "TransactionLoadException: Unable to find transaction file specified"
Has anyone seen this issue?
The following shows the relevant log dump:

For what it's worth, it appears to be a problem at the source. I have the same problem with the same downloaded file. Looking at the xml, there is an error in the self-reference of location. I was unable to figure out how to modify the xml of the export such that a reimport would fix it. (Export it and look at the xml - do a find on MeasurementPointWrite and you will see what I mean).
However, try the following:
Create a new transaction.
Copy the top sequence and include children of the MeasurementPointWrite transaction (basically you are copying the entire transaction contents).
Paste it to the empty sequence in your new transaction.
Save it under some name.
Create another new transaction.
Drag and drop your first new transaction into the empty sequence of your second new transaction.
Now it works...
Go figure.

Mike

How can I create a function using TestStand variables and call it from a step's Pre-Expression?

In one sequence I have dozens of Pre-Expressions which are almost the same thing, like this...
Locals.tagID = (Parameters.singlePhaseEnabled ? "L" : "D") & Str(Locals.phase) & "006"
...and the only thing different is that three digit string at the end ("006" will vary). How can I write a function that I can call from a step's Pre-Expression so it would look something like this? ...
Locals.tagID = MyNewFunction("006")

You cannot write custom commands for expressions.
That being said, there are a couple of options:
Create a subsequence with a single step. Use a parameter of the sequence as "function parameter".
Create a custom step type including a substep module which implements the function. Add an edit substep to enable the user of the steptype to gracefully change the parameter.
Store the variable parameter in a local/file global variable and modify the value in each step. This will, at least, keep the "function" the same for every step.

You can Use EPCM.doNavigate() to call R3 Transaction or something like this:
<hbj:link id="r3"
 text="R3 Transaction">
<% r3.setOnClientClick("OpenWindow('/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.appintegrator.sap.Transaction?System=SAP_R3&TCode=SE80&GuiType=WinGui');return false;"); %>
 </hbj:link>

Call Transaction from Program by Skipping Initial Screen & Pass the Value

Hi All,
Can anybody help me to call a transaction from my program. I do not want to display the initial screen of the transaction but that TCODE should get opened by passing the values to the parameter of the initial screen.
For Example, in my program I want to call 'SE38' and in that, my Program of Name 'ZTEST' should get opened. So I need to call Transaction SE38, but I donot want to display initial screen of that. Instead of that, I want to put the value of Program 'ZTEST' and thus my program should get opened.

Hello Sandip,
Since you have not made any references to Batch Processing, I shall tell you the normal way to do it. First look at the code below and execute it.
set parameter id 'DTB' field 'VBAK'.
call transaction 'SE16' and skip first screen.
There are a few things that you need to keep in mind before you use this statement:
1. All mandatory input fields of the initial dynpro must be filled completely and with the correct values by the SPA/GPA parameters.
2. For the initial dynpro, in the Screen Painter the own dynpro number must not be specified as the next screen number. However, if the next screen can be reached from the first screen by just hitting the Enter key, this will work.
The following will not work as you expect, because the next screen in the transaction cannot be reached by just hitting the Enter Key.
set parameter id 'RID' field 'ZTEST'.
call transaction 'SE38' and skip first screen.
