  • 1.  Download results from SE16 or other structure outputs?

    Posted 06-16-2021 11:46


    Can a script be written direct against SE16 in which you would be able to download the results via Winshuttle?  Or from that matter, from a tCode that has results in a structure, not a table like VA05.  This would be very useful but I haven't been able to find a way to do it.

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Rita -

    You would not be able to download those in the traditional sense, since those are "fields" that can be mapped to columns or fields from tables that can be selected for extract. There are typically "download" or "save file " or "save locally" types of options in the t-code where SAP will generate a file and safe the results into that file, and that type of action can be used with Winshuttle. The file path and the file name would actually be mappable fields.

    The biggest caveat is that oftentimes the formatting of the resulting data in the excel is not the best, but the data is there. So this save file type of option is one way of dealing with this issue.

    Thank you!

    I recommend using SE16N instead of SE16.  There are better options for exporting with SE16N
