Hi all - I have been working to create a Winshuttle script to run multiple MR11 transactions in SAP PE2. MR11 is also known as Account Maintenance. This transaction will look at the GR/IR on a purchase order and take any variance back to the original mapping on the PO (either back to inventory or expense). An example is if we had a GR of $10 but an invoice of $9. An MR11 would take this $1 variance back to where the goods receipt of $10 previously hit.

The script works as intended, but the Winshuttle Excel template for my MR11 does not return helpful comments after running a line item. In order to get the message needed, I have to manually run an MR11 to see what happened during the Winshuttle run which defeats the purpose of running a Winshuttle script. I have two fields that are attempting to return messages from SAP, but neither fields are indicative of if the TCode was successfully/unsuccessfully ran. Typically I have noticed that Winshuttle will return a message from SAP if the message pops up in the bottom left hand corner of the SAP screen (ex: Document number 10000000 has been created), but MR11 comments do not pop up on the bottom of the screen. Instead, the message needed are part of a table at the end of the transaction. I found the technical names of the table and the field that I need returned from SAP. The table name is CMF_FIXOUTPUT and the field name is CMF_TEXT. Does anyone know how to return the message that I need?

Hi Thomas, 

This type of message return is similar to how SAP returns messages for cross-company code financial postings. The method described in this article would apply here as well: https://support.winshuttle.com/hc/en-us/articles/360023445472-FB50-FB60-Cross-Company-Codes. 

If you're still experiencing an issue, please open a support ticket at support.winshuttle.com and we'd be happy to help you further. Please include this summary and a copy of your script (.txr) and data file (.xlsx). 

Thanks!
