OATS: How to return the number of tabs (tab count) in ADFPannelTabbed

Question

Question: I have a ADFPannelTabbed Object wherein I want to validate whether a particular tabname exists or not. At present we have something like this: adf.panelTabbed(tabObject).GetText(1) and adf.panelTabbed(tabObject).GetText(2) and so on. However I want the count of the tabs that are available under adf.panelTabbed(tabObject), so that I can loop through it and check the tab existence based on the i value. something like below
For i=0 to tabcount
StrTabName = adf.paneltabbed(tabObject).GetText(i);
If(StrTabName.equals(MyInput){
info("PASS");
How to get the tabCount in this case.

Hi Vicky Sai,     
The standard report is S_PH9_46000223 - EEs Entered and Left
If you want to obtain the numbers in the same screen you should do the following1
1 - access the report
2 - further selection button - select Action type and move it to the Selection fields (you will get it on the screen)
3 - select action Hiring and action Leaving (so that the report will only count these elements)
4 - Period - current month
5 - run the report
6 - you will now have to see the number of employees (unfortunately you cannot do Sum here as you could do in a Querry that you would build as you would add the Count field so we need to do a little trick)
7 - Change layout icon - View tab- select Preferred view instead of SAP List viewer ->Microsoft Excel
8 - Select a template - press save
9 - You will see now the report in the Excel format. You can do sums if you want, add formulas, or you simply delete the first line and just look at the latest line filled in (total number of EE who left or were hired during the month)
If you do your own Querry - you can skip the Excel part and make a screen variant with the Sums.
At least now you have 2 options that you can choose from
