  • 1.  BP in ECC Standard Method field

    Posted 05-06-2020 13:11
    Hi Shuttlers,

    Working with BP in ECC. Under Address tab Communication Standard Method (DDR1_DATA-DEFLT_COMM) when recording I am able to select or type in INT E-mail as the selection. The field is only a string of 3. In mapping it shows as INT.

    My issue is when I go to run the script it dose not populate in both standard and Batch Mode. What am I not doing incorrectly?

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    i am able to add a screen grab.
    I have Language as a fixed data input at EN and it populates as shown.
    I have Standard Method as a fixed input at INT (INT E-mail) and it dose not populate as shown.
    Is it user settings or SAP settings are two things I am thinking of but could be something else.
    We have tried some to change user settings but as shown in the screen grab it works for EN but not for INT.

    Thanks

    Hi Ben

    Was able to do a simple recording and can post to that field, example attached. 

    I'm using Studio 12.1, with Winshuttle Function Module 12.1, against ECC 6.0.   Are you on a different version?

    Hope this helps a little,
    Sigrid

    Creating WS script

    Field name in COMM.
    Using WS load

    Field name in Address COMM
    Sigrid,
    In your image the result comes in at Address-Independent Communication section. The request is for it to come in at the Communication section. When I do the recording it will save in the Communication section field but when I test the load it will input at the Communication field but show in the Address-Independent Communication section as your image shows. When I look at both fields they have the same table and field names.

    Could you review your BP that you created making the script and see if this is the same for you?

    I do not know much about BP. Thank you for your help.

    Next though do I need to do a GUI Scripting to position to that field and save.

    Thanks
    Ben Kielas

    Hi Ben

    Sorry I didn't notice which section I was populating.  I now see that the communication method field is actually the same SAP field name under the covers - although there is a subtle difference in a sub screen name that we're not capturing
    communications grouping                                    

    external communications group
    we focus on the field data, which is identical, and the program name and screen number on the bottom (batch input), which is also identical.

    This is a default recording mode script - non-batch.  I captured both sets of email and communication methods - mapping them to the same fields in excel,  here's what I see in step by step mode
    So both of the email address are mapped, but only the last version of the communication method is filled in, because to the script they look identical.  IDK why it's the last version vs the first version of the field, but that is what is happening.

    I tried recording in BATCH mode, and I got the same thing:

    So then I tried GUI scripting mode, and that's when it worked - see both sets of emails and communication methods filled in (they're not in red in debug mode with GUI scripting).  Example script attached.
    So overall batch and non-batch see communication method as the same field and is only filling in the last one.  GUI scripting works.  Also if you'd consider a BAPI instead of GUI scripting, then there is likely one for BP in ECC that would work.  

    Hope this helps,
    Sigrid

    Thank you Sigrid.

    I tried last night with GUI Scripting and also was able to make it work.

    We are asking for the INT code to be a defaulted.

     

    I will look into BAPI as a 2nd option.

     

    Thanks for all your help!
