Automate

Hello,

I am trying to update BOMs by adding components. Shuttle stalls in the loop of the second component on the 2nd subscreen (the text one). Have no data to input on this screen, but the OK code flips from /00 to =ERFA, which I believe is the hit "new entries" button on the item overview screen.

Have tried flipping the recording mode from Standard (non Batch with SAP controls) to Non-batch with SAP controls, Batch and Standard (Batch)

I'm on version 20.3.1 , GUI 800 patch 5. Previous MM01, MM02, CA01, CO02, C223, ME11 and ME01 shuttles have worked.

My shuttle file and step by step screenshots are attached if anyone has any input. Thank you!

Looking at your excel file and the error message, it appears that the Material  (component) 10000125-01-F94 does not exist at Plant US10 and thus your script is lost on what to do on the 2^nd component 2^nd subscreen – where it stalls . Verify that all component exists at the plant before running the script again.

You could also try to create a BOM manually and see it stall on the 2nd component and look at the any message at the bottom left of the of the sub screen

Thank you, Sailesh. I also noticed the component missing from quality system and removed it from the test. I was able to get the script working by changing the recording mode after all. Appreciate you taking a look at this!

Glad it's working, Megan, and thanks Sailesh, for jumping in.

BOM's are best automated in Batch recording mode.  The screens may be a bit different if you see them in debug mode, but otherwise, it's pretty seamless.

Please note that the screens that will appear, and the order, may be different based on Item Category.
