Hello,

Is it possible to pause a script mid run and allow the user to interact with the current screen before continuing on.  Our users would like to use t-code F-03 for a quick transfer of accounts but would like to be able to select and deselect specific lines within a reference.  Not sure if it is possible or if I should recommend the business looks into other possibilities.

Hi,

This is an interesting expectation from a script. I would say that in order to be able to interact with the executed screen would be using the "Debug" mode, something that would kill the patience of any WS Runner.
There are options to delay the SAP logon, I have explored the possibility to "Delay" on a specific screen to have time to interact with it. I have not been able to find such possibility.
If it would be found I would envision that the script would need to be recorded in GUI Mode and after the interaction of the user the same screen where it was left by the script system would need to continue from there.

Looking to other solution.
In relation to the options to be chosen, can these not be mapped to a fiend in the data file that the system would know what to select in each data record?

Regards,

Hi Victor,

For this request I ended up pushing back on the request to explore other solutions.  The primary issue we run into with this is there are 3,000+ assignment numbers that get process through the t-code.  Each one of those assignment will have 5+ individual lines.   The requester wanted the ability to deselect individual lines in a given assignment.  I could see using the debug but I agree the runner would not be happy about that.
