Enhancing a SAP program

Hi,
We are using an standard SAP program and now we have a requirement of adding "lower case" to one of the select-options.
Please suggest me how to do the same. Thanking you in advance.

Hi,
i guess you need to copy this standard SAP code into Z program and make the changes in this as per the requirement.

Changes in standard SAP programs

Hello all,
How could I track the changes made to standard SAP programs by a client? The system is 4.0B and some standard R/3 application's source code has been modified to provide some non-standard functionalities (that was, probably, the worst solution - in many of the cases they could have use user exits or enhancements for achieving the same purpose).
In the table TRDIR (or, if you will, D010SINF) I can find the programs that were created by a set of users such as 'SAP' or 'SAP*' or 'DDIC' and were subsequently modified by client users (developers).
Furthermore, finding the development class of those programs (function module 'RS_PROGRAM_GET_DEVCLASS') gives me a better idea about what applications were really modified by the client.
Still, many of these programs that appear to have been created by 'SAP' or 'SAP*' and modified by other (client) users were generated as a consequence of configuration changes made by those client users, and therefore are not changes made to SAP R/3 standard.
Is there a way to track only those standard programs that were indeed modified by the client, at source code level?
Thank you,
Bogdan

Hi Bogdan,
you can program your own tool-abap:
1) select table E070 ( TRFUNCTION = 'R' )
2) -> for all entries select V_E071EU
(TRKORR = e070-TRKORR)
3)-> list all found objects:
-V_E071EU-PGMID
-V_E071EU-OBJECT
-V_E071EU-OBJ_NAME
and create an interactive list (e.g. for SE11 and SE38)
hope this helps

How user exits attached to SAP programs ?

How are user exits attached tp SAP programs ?
Is it through CALL FUNcTION 'Some-EXIT-NAME'
Now I know that in my case a user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009 is implemented for transaction IW32. I am turning debugger on by using /H and then clicking on save event in IW32 when the user exit gets triggered.
Then I set break-point for CALL Function inside the debugger.
But I can't see CALL FUNCTION 'EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009' in the debugger of transaction program....
So I am just wondering is it this way the user exit is hanged to program. Please throw some light on this....

I would say that most are implemented as function modules which are usually called by something like this.
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 'WHATEVER'
Some are implemented as includes, like the ones for Sales Document Processing.
In your case, it is a function module, EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009 which is probably called by CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '009', or something to that effect, somehow it translates to EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009. Also there must be a "Z" include in the function module EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009. Double click the include, system will ask you if you want to create it. Say yes. Now put a break-point in the include. Make sure to activte the enhancement in SMOD/CMOD. Run your main program, It should stop at your break point.

How to find CUSTOMER EXIT for a Standard SAP program

How to find CUSTOMER EXIT for a Standard SAP program

Hi
To introduce the techniques of enhancement in standard SAP system. SAP creates customer exits for specific programs, screens, and menus within standard R/3 applications. These exits do not contain any functionality. Instead, the customer exits act as hooks. You can hang your own add-on functionality onto these hooks.
They do not affect standard SAP source code.
When you add new functionality to your SAP System using SAPs exits, you do not alter the source code of standard SAP programs in any way. The code and screens you create are encapsulated as separate objects. These customer objects are linked to standard applications, but exist separately from SAPs standard software package.
They do not affect software updates.
When you add new functionality to your SAP System using SAPs exits, your objects (called customer objects) must adhere to strict naming conventions. When it comes time to upgrade a to a new software release, customer objects names ensure that they will not be affected by any changes or new additions to the standard software package.
Customer exits are not available for all programs and screens found in the SAP System.
Any change made to an SAP object in a customer system is called a modification. Customers usually modify their systems for one of two reasons. Either they make changes to the SAP standard in order to adjust the R/3 System to their specific business needs (actual modifications), or they alter individual SAP objects in order to correct an error (as recommended in an SAP error note).
You should only modify the SAP standard if the modifications you want to make are absolutely necessary for optimizing work flow in your company. Be aware that good background knowledge of application structure and flow are important prerequisites for deciding what kind of modifications to make and how these modifications should be designed.
SAP application programmers create SAP enhancements in transaction SMOD using function module exits, menu exits, and screen exits.
Customers are given a catalog containing an overview of existing SAP enhancements. They can then combine the SAP enhancements they want into an enhancement project using transaction CMOD.
SAP enhancements are made up of component parts. These components include function module exits, menu exits, and screen exits. A specific component may be used only once in a single SAP enhancement (this guarantees the uniqueness of SAP enhancements).
Customer enhancement projects consist of SAP enhancements. Each individual SAP enhancement may be used only once in a single customer enhancement program (this guarantees the uniqueness of a customer project).
SAP application programmers preplan function module exits, menu exits, and screen exits for their applications and combine them to create useful enhancements for the R/3 System.
Customers create their own enhancement projects for their systems using SAP enhancements. You can customize the individual components of an enhancement project by creating your own include programs (for function module exits), texts (for menu exits), and subscreens (for screen exits).

Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program

Hi All,
I have a issue related Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program.
Actual issue is as below.
In the selection screen of my program i will give Application Server Path as :
/PW/DATA/SAP/D1S/PP/DOWN/eppi0720*
Then the based on above input it should pick up all the files that are matching eppi0720* criteria.
Suppose if i am having 5 files with above scenario, i have to fetch all those 5 files at a time and place in my SAP Program.
All those 5 file's data should come into SAP at a time.
Can anybody tell me how can we solve above issue.
If any body has come across same issue please provide me with solution.
Thanks in advance.

* In this procedure, we are updating the total of a regno given as input.
* Here two parameters used in the procedure are input parameters.
* We are updating the record of regno entered in selection screen and
* adding the total entered to the already existing total. We have to give semicolon
* for the statement inside procedure.

Loading records from .csv file to SAP table via SAP Program

Hi,
I have a .csv file with 132,869 records and I am trying to load it to an SAP table with a customized SAP program.
After executing the program, only 99,999 records are being loaded into the table.
Is there some setting to define how many records can be loaded into a table? Or what else could be the problem?
Pls advice.
Thanks!!!

hi Arun ,
A datasource need a extract structure to fetch data .It is nothing but a temp table to hold data.
First you need to create atable in SE11 with fields coming from CSV file.
Then you need to write a report program to read you CSV file and populate your table in BW .
Then you can create a datasource on top of this table .
After that replicate and load data at PSA and use to upper flow.

Z search field in standard sap program

Hi,
I would like to ask if Z search field can be created in the standard SAP program.
Basically I need modify the search field used when searching for Business area in creation of asset master data (tr. AS01).
It shows the list of table tgsbt. But I would like to exclude by default some rows of the table and also would like to sort it in different way (by text).
Is that possible, if so, could anyone give me a hint how to do that?
Many thanks,

How to uncomment code in Standard SAP Programs

Hi Experts,
how to uncomment entire code of standard SAP programs which is commented .
Standard SAP Program is fully commented,i have to uncomment it ,to work it as normal.
i saw that some lines * / * like this are there in the commented code .
what is the way to un comment this ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Hitu

Well, if it is commented by your company - This doesnt ask for access key but if it is commented by SAP and you want to uncomment, you need access key.
You can ask basis guys to get access key for the object. you need to provide the program name and other information.
Other information: - go to the GOTO on application tool bar and select object direct entry.... you need to provide the full object key.
To uncomment the code - select the lines and right click - uncomment . This can only be done in editable mode.

Best Practice for enhancing the SAP delivered standard WD ABAP application

Hi,
I am new to WebDypro ABAP.
To enhance the SAP delivered Standard WebDynpro Component (complex component with Business objects & powl).
Kindly let me know the best practice for enhancing the Standard WD ABAP from the below 1 or 2.
1) To copy & create a "Z" of the component & make changes in that (or)
2) to enhance directly on the same standard component without making "Z".
Regards,
NS

Hi NS,
If it is a standard component its better we go for enhancing the component rather than copying it into Z component.
If there is any issue with in the standard component , SAP supports it through notes and OSS messages. If it is a Z component, SAP doesn't support it.
If there is any up gradation of business packages, changes will be done to standard , but not the Z components, wherein we could miss it.
Further, since it is a standard component it might have been used at many places, changes that has to done to reflect all changes might be difficult in this case if it is a z component.

Harsha

Getting run time errors while executing the copied SAP programs

Hi folks,
i want to copy an sap program.after coping i need to change some coding there.then i have to create a new transaction for that.
i am just copying the sap program RQEEAL10(transaction-QA32) to Z_RQEEAL10. it has 4 include programs.i am copying them to z programs like
RQ00MF10 copied to z_RQ00MF10
RQALVF14 copied to z_RQALVF14
RQALVF16 copied to z_RQALVF16
RQALVTOP copied to z_RQALVTOP.
now i am executing that program Z_RQEEAL10.but i am getting run time errors as given below.
runtime error---
The termination occurred in the ABAP program "Z_RQEEAL10" in
"SELECT_FIELDS_MANIP2_F16".
The main program was "Z_RQEEAL10 ".
The termination occurred in line 257 of the source code of the (Include)
program "RQALVF16"
of the source code of program "RQALVF16" (when calling the editor 2570).
--Error in ABAP statement when processing an internal table.
--When changing or deleting one or more lines of the internal table
"\PROGRAM=Z_RQEEAL10\DATA=SELECT_FIELDS" or when inserting in the table
"\PROGRAM=Z_RQEEAL10\DATA=SELECT_FIELDS", 0 was used as
the line index. An index less than or equal to zero is not
allowed.
The error can occur when using the following options:
1. "INDEX idx" for specifying the line number in the table
"\PROGRAM=Z_RQEEAL10\DATA=SELECT_FIELDS"
 where you want to change, insert or delete.
2. "FROM idx" for specifying the start index when deleting a line
 area from or inserting a line area into the table
"\PROGRAM=Z_RQEEAL10\DATA=SELECT_FIELDS".
3. "TO idx" for specifying the end index when deleting a line
 area from or inserting a line area into the table
"\PROGRAM=Z_RQEEAL10\DATA=SELECT_FIELDS".
When the program terminated, the table had 2 lines.
these r the runtime errors what i am getting.where is the problem?i have activated all interface & includes.plz advice.
Thanks & regards

Hi Madhu,
I will give you one more check point where you have to give your concentration while copying the standard programs....
Call Customer-Function (Function Exists) if any in the Program when copied will not get executed. Instead you need to call the FM Directly.
one more is also here
You are likely to have some problems with the text-elements and translation that may have been maintained for the original report.

How to call a Standard SAP Program in Zprogram.

Hi,
how to call a SAP Standard program in SAP Program?
Do we have to use any funtion module and pass paramters?
I want to call a Standard SAP prg in to my prgram? can anyone explain me or give the piece of code to call standard prg.
Thanks & Regards

Again, ABAP related questions should be asked in the ABAP forum.
To answer you question, if the standard program is a report program, you can use the SUBMIT statement and pass parameters using the WITH Extention.
Submit <report>
with p_fld = 'X'
and return.
Please make sure to award points for helpful answers and mark your posts as solved when solved completely. Thanks.

How to change the field length in standard sap program.

Hi All,
How to change the field length in standard sap program.
Urgent
Example:
Text1 type c length 75,
To change :
Text1 type c length 150,
Point will be rewarded..
Thank you,
Vikram.C

If the only solution is to change the sap standard program, simply change the program, it will prompt for an access key. This key can be retrieved in the SAP support portal (service.sap.com) at keys and requests, sccr keys, register object.
Sometimes these actions are outsourced to a competence center, so maybe youre not entitled to do this, in any case ask a resident senior developer for support.
