Hi
To improve the user interface, GuiXT can be used. it drastically iimproves the user interaction with the system.
As management doesn't want the technicain to spend more time on SAP rather than attending machines.More information can be entered in less time and each transaction can be given as Big buttons in the easy access screen. And comes free with Std SAP.
A functional consultant can easily develop his GuiXT scripts.
Input assistant (IA) is further improvement, Like , if you have to change the user status in order, you require minimum 3 clicks in order, this can be reduced into a single click with IA. ( IA needs license)
Those who think, SAP is not user friendly. Should consider GuiXT.

How to code a predifined function module in sap ,in se37.

can any one tell me how to code a predifined function module in sap ,in se37.it's an immediate requirement.if u give a brief description it'll do.

Hi Henry,
There are two possible ways in which I can interpret your question.
1. You want to create a new Function Module in SE37. you will have to refer to the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/d1/801e9a454211d189710000e8322d00/frameset.htm">Function Builder</a> tutorial for that.
2. You want to use an existing function module in your program. In the code of your program in SE38, click the button <i>Pattern</i>. On the pop-up, give the name of the function module that you wish to use in your program.

Can i call a function module of SAP?

Hi, i have a question... Can i call a function module of SAP... I need print a document from a device, can i call the function module of SAP in order that me it prints it?
Thanks,

Hi Victor,
you can use the GenericSync Example of the MDK. This calls the Module to verify the user directly. Generic Sync is exactly for that purpose: call a BADI directly and no usage of SyncBO. Be aware, that you - out of the box- sync your app data as well at that moment, because a sync runs both - generic and smartsync. Even worse: even when you have nothing to sync in Generic Sync - so nothing to print - it will call the function module for generic sync as long as it is registered.
Well, anyway, this is the way to call a function module separate.
If it works with you rparticular print module? I have no idea, but if this is a normal function module - well, it should be ok.
Hope this helps.

Oliver

Possibility to execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP?

Good day.
Presently, a company uses Acrobat Pro to manually combine files such as *.pdf, *.jpg, *.doc, which have been downloaded from SAP's Document Management System, into one pdf file. I would like to know if it is possible to automatically execute Acrobat Pro's "Combine files into PDF" function from within SAP (ECC 6.0) application system. I'm wondering if this could be achieved from a program via OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) or RFC (remote function call).
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and inputs.

Yes, you can combine PDF files via IAC/COM methods.

Wants to find out customise function module in SAP

Hi all There,
I want to find out Customize Function Module in SAP,
I am not able to find out though SE03.
Pl provide the detail solution
Regards
Sagar

hi,
Custom function module start with Z or Y.So go to table TFDIR and enter z* and y* on input screen field function module name and then check number on entries by pressing tab number of entries on application toolbar.
So number of custom function module = z(number of entries) + y(Number of entries) .
Thanks

To get sample C code of function mudules in SAP BW

Hello,
In SAP R/3 4.6C , I got sample C programs of function modules in transaction SE37 via Utilities -> RFC Interface -> Generate and Download.
Now I would like to get sample C programs of function modules in SAP BW 3.0B.
But there is not the menu 'Utilities -> RFC Interface' in transaction SE37.
How can I get sample C programs?
Regards,
Kenichiro Abe

Hello,
unfortunately the RFC generator is no longer supported and included in the new SAP products. Therefore the only possibility is, to log on to an older SAP system and check, if the module is also available there. Then generate the source code and change it, if necessary, so that it's also compatible with the new SAP release.

You can use like this:

CHANGING &FIELD3&
ENDPERFORM.
where function_module is the func. module name defined in program SUBROUTINE_POOL , field1 n field2 are the fields to be passed, and field3 is the value which you want to display...
You have to read field1 & field2 in the pool, process them & get the value of field to be output.

Transaction iView( Tcode) Error: Function call in SAP GUI with errors

Hey Guys:
I use Transaction iView to show the ABAP application on Portal. The application works to import data from client to BW. After I fill all the information and execute the application, the system returns the error message " Function call in SAP GUI with errors".
The ABAP application works fine on SAP GUI, so it should not be the program problem.
Any Suggestion for this will be nice. Thanks for your help.

Hey Duy:
Thanks for your response. I check the servers which i have access, and all of them cannot work correctly.
First, other iViews(Dynpro,BW Report,BSP,KM...) work fine.
Second, our backend system is a BW server.
I try to do so on our EP production and development, also connect them to our BW production and development servers. All of those are failed and have the same problem.
The t-code comes from our abap program and register on BW server, and hte program works fine when I use SE38 to execute it.
PS. The Transaction iView works fine before, but I have no idea why it just crash now.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion about this.
