How to call a transaction in an activity?
Hi everyone,
I need to call a standard transaction (passing some parameters) after a user decision in a custom workflow. I've found the TSTC business object with the EXECUTE method, but I don't know how to eventually use it with some parameteres.
Any help?
Thanks in advance. Regards.
Angelo
Hi' Angelo,
you can create a new method using Call Transaction. It's simple and it works.
Kind regards

How to call a transaction with a variant
Hi all
I created a bdc program after updating it should call another transaction with predefined variant that that transaction program is of type module pool.
can anyone tell me the syntax how to call a transaction with a variant.Hi
goto Tcode SHD0
enter the Tcode for which Tran Variant has to be created(dialog Tcode)
enter Trans variant to be created
press create button
it will go through all the screens of that Tcode and save
and modify the fields as per requirement
we can create Transaction Variants Using SHD0 Transaction.
Transaction Variants and Screen Variants
Transaction variants can simplify transaction runs as they allow you to:
Preassign values to fields
Hide and change the 'ready for input' status of fields
Hide and change table control column attributes
Hide menu functions
Hide entire screens
In particular, hiding fields in connection with screen compression, and hiding screens, can result in greater clarity and simplicity.
Transaction variants are made up of a sequence of screen variants. The field values and field attributes for the individual screens found in transaction variants are stored in screen variants. Each of these variants is assigned to a specific transaction, can, however, also contain values for screens in other transactions if this is required by transaction flow. The transaction that the variant is assigned to serves as initial transaction when the variant is called.
There are both client-specific and cross-client transaction variants. All screen variants are cross-client, but may be assigned to a client-specific transaction variant.
A namespace exists for cross-client transaction variants and screen variants and both are automatically attached to the Transport Organizer. Client-specific transaction variants must be transported manually.
In principle, transaction and screen variants can be created for all dialog and reporting transactions. There are, however, certain Restrictions that apply to certain transactions, depending on their internal structure.
No transaction variants are possible with transactions already containing preset parameters (parameter transactions and variant transactions).

Hi All,
How to call CJ20N transaction from custom transaction/custom program.
generally some transaction having OPEN functionality for open other project,how to handle these type of transaction.
Help me.
Thanks,
Srinivas ManaiHi,
<b>You can neither do CALL TRANSACTION nor use BDC session method for transaction CJ20N</b>. This is a enjoy transaction and it works on Object oriented technology. These kind of transactions ( ME21N, ME22N, KE23N, ME51N etc..) does not support CALL TRANSACTION.
Use transaction <b>CJ20</b> instead.
Let me know your exact requirement, there may be an alternative to CALL TRANSACTION or BDC.

How to call a transaction from ABAP code
Hi everybody,
How do I run a transaction from my ABAP code?
For example, through my ABAP code, I want to call the ME24 transaction (Maintain Purchase Order).
Thanks for the help,
RoyCALL TRANSACTION
Syntax
CALL TRANSACTION ta { [AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN]
| [USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]] }.
Extras:
1. ... AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN
2. ... USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]
Effect
The statement CALL TRANSACTION calls the transaction whose transaction code is contained in data object ta. The data object ta must be of character type and must contain the transaction code in uppercase letters. If the transaction specified in ta cannot be found, an untreatable exception is triggered. The additions suppress the display of the initial screen and allow you to execute the transaction using a batch input session.
At CALL TRANSACTION the calling program and its data is kept, and after exiting the called transaction, processing is resumed in the calling program after the call.
When the transaction is called, the ABAP program linked with the transaction code is loaded in a new internal session. The session of the calling program is kept. The called program runs in an SAP LUW of its own.
If the called transaction is a dialog transaction, after loading the ABAP program the event LOAD-OF-PROGRAM is triggered and the dynpro defined as initial dynpro of the transaction is called. The initial dynpro is the first dynpro of a dynpro sequence. The transaction is finished when the dynpro sequence is ended by encountering the next dynpro with dynpro number 0 or when the program is exited with the LEAVE PROGRAM statement.
If the called transaction is an OO transaction (as of release 6.10), when loading all programs except class pools the event LOAD-OF-PROGRAM is triggered and then the method linked with the transaction code is called. If the method is an instance method, implicitly an object of the corresponding class is generated and referenced by the runtime environment. The transaction is finished when the method is finished or when the program is exited using the LEAVE PROGRAM statement.
After the end of the transaction call, program execution of the calling program resumes after the CALL TRANSACTION statement.
Note
At the statement CALL TRANSACTION, the authorization of the current user to execute the called transaction is not checked automatically. If the calling program does not execute a check, the called program must check the authorization. To do this, the called program must call function module AUTHORITY_CHECK_TCODE.
Addition 1
... AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN
Effect
This addition suppresses the display of a screen of the initial dynpro of a called dialog transaction. The addition AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN suppresses the first screen under these prerequisites:
For the initial dynpro, in the Screen Painter the own dynpro number must not be specified as the next screen number.
All mandatory input fields of the initial dynpro must be filled completely and with the correct values by the SPA/GPA parameters
If these prerequisites are met, that screen of the dynpro is displayed that is specified in the Screen Painter as the next dynpro of the initial dynpro.
Example
If the static next dynpro of the initial dynpro of the called dialog transaction FLIGHT_TA is not the initial dynpro itself, its screen is suppressed, because its input fields are filled using the SPA/GPA parameters CAR and CON.
DATA: carrid TYPE spfli-carrid,
connid TYPE spfli-connid.
SET PARAMETER ID: 'CAR' FIELD carrid,
'CON' FIELD connid.
CALL TRANSACTION 'FLIGHT_TA' AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN.
Addition 2
... USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]
Effect
Use this addition to pass an internal table bdc_tab of row type BDCDATA from the ABAP Dictionary to a dialog transaction. The additions bdc_options control the batch input processing. When a transaction with addition USING is called, the system field sy-binpt is set to value "X" in the called program - while this transaction is running, no other transaction can be called with this addition.
The internal table bdc_tab is the program-internal representation of a batch input session and must be filled accordingly. The structure BDCDATA has the components shown in the table below.
Component Description
PROGRAM Name of the program of the called transaction
DYNPRO Number of the dynpro to be processed
DYNBEGIN Flag for the beginning of a new dynpro (possible values are "X" and " ")
FNAM Name of a dynpro field to be filled or batch input control statement, for example, to position the cursor
FVAL Value to be passed to the dynpro field or to the control statement
Using the internal table bdc_tab, you can provide any number of screens of the called transaction with input and user actions.
System Fields
sy-subrc Description
0 The batch input processing of the called transaction was successful.
< 1000 Error in the called transaction. If within the transaction a message was sent, you can receive it using the addition MESSAGES.
1001 Error in batch input processing.
Note
Outside of ABAP Objects you can specify the additions AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN and USING together. However, this does not make sense, because the addition AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN is desigend only to fill the mandatory input fields using SPA/GPA parameters, while the batch input table specified with USING controls the entire transaction flow including the display of the screens.
Example
Call of the Class Builder (transaction SE24) and display of class CL_SPFLI_PERSISTENT. The internal table bdcdata_tab contains the input for the batch input processing of the first dynpro (1000) of the transaction. Using structure opt, the batch input processing is set to suppress the first screen and to display the next screen in the standard size.
DATA class_name(30) TYPE c VALUE 'CL_SPFLI_PERSISTENT'.
DATA: bdcdata_wa TYPE bdcdata,
bdcdata_tab TYPE TABLE OF bdcdata.
DATA opt TYPE ctu_params.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-program = 'SAPLSEOD'.
bdcdata_wa-dynpro = '1000'.
bdcdata_wa-dynbegin = 'X'.
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = 'SEOCLASS-CLSNAME'.
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'SEOCLASS-CLSNAME'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = class_name.
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
CLEAR bdcdata_wa.
bdcdata_wa-fnam = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
bdcdata_wa-fval = '=CIDI'.
APPEND bdcdata_wa TO bdcdata_tab.
opt-dismode = 'E'.
opt-defsize = 'X'.
CALL TRANSACTION 'SE24' USING bdcdata_tab OPTIONS FROM opt. -

How to call ABAP transaction from Webdynpro in NWBC
Hi
I need to develop an Webdynpro application who lists Sales Orders. The Application is launched in NWBC DESKTOP version.
This part is no big deal...
But: i need to gain users the possibility to display the Sales Orders in T-CODE VA03 (ABAP) when they click a link in the list. How can i do that?
I have tried to do a test like this:
method ONACTIONTEST_LAUNCH .
DATA: url TYPE string,
query TYPE string.
url = cl_nwbc=>url_construct( html_client = abap_false
canvas_transaction = 'VA03' ).
cl_nwbc=>url_launch( url ).
endmethod.
But this url launches the HTML version of NWBC (inside the Desktop version...). and i want the system to launch the ABAP system.Hi Jakob,
I would use Object Based Navigation in this case (OBN). With OBN you can define an OBN target in your WDA application and map that target to a transaction in your PFCG role.
Here is some help

How to call external application (transaction launcher) from event method
Hi all
Can somebody tell me which program lines to put into an event handler method in a view controller to get an external application called. I intend to define the link to the external application in the Transaction Launcher. But I cannot find any instructions on how to call the Transaction Launcher from my event handler method. I do not want to launch the application from the navigation bar, ONLY via a link in a list of invoices in a table view, and I want to press the invoice number to get an external application called to display the invoice. My event handler method gets called fine enough, but I have no clue which program lines to put into the method to pass on the call to the Transaction Launcher

create 2 LSMW object (under same project and subproject)..
one for extended vendor master data for company code data and other for extended purchase organization data for company code data.
Now check the radio buttons and based on that populate ur LSMW object.
Store project

Store subproject
subproj = < >.
Store object
object = '6GSC022_TS3'.
if r_ccode = 'X'.

After the checking the field if u think for this u need to generate error message then In the Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules option under the required field write the following code:
data: v_msgtxt(100) type c.
message <msg ID> <message type> <message no>
with <var1> <var2>
into v_msgtxt.
write v_msgtxt.
Follow the next step in LSMW object till you reach the option Convert Data.
After you execute this option you will get the desired message here.
