Automate

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to update the line 2 of the settlement rules. I want to write an end date for the line 2. Could someone please help me how on how to specifically choose the line two. For instance in this particular order I have to update the line 2 and in another case I have to enter the end date on Line 3 out of 4 lines. How can i tell Automate to specifically choose the line that I want? Could someone please support?

Thanks in advance

Jacob

Hi Basil

It's helpful if you - and everyone - specify the tcode and SAP system version - ECC or S4 - TIA :)

With any grid in the SAP GUI - there are a few options

1. if there is a find or position, use it to position to the right row - not an option in KO02 - assuming that is what you are trying to automate
2. use GUI scripting with an IndexedIf - see documentation: https://help.precisely.com/r/t/1016755804/2023-12-31/Automate-Studio/Connect/Latest/en-US/Automate-Studio-with-Studio-Administrator-User-Guide/Add-If-conditions - you could likely use Distribution Rule Number - the column showing No. 1,2,3 - as the Index - you record changing it but then swap it to the index and disable the update
3. Use a BAPI - but there doesn't seem to be a BAPI/FM that updates this data that is remote enabled.

So the only option I can think of for this is to use GUI scripting - SAP scripting has to be on in your SAP system - and use the Indexed IF to find the right row via the rule No.

I'm attaching a very quick example. I didn't know what you wanted to update, and I created it in S/4Hana - you didn't specify your system.  So it's just an example - you would need to record it in your system.

Best Regards,

Sigrid

Jacob,

I recently ran into a similar issue in KO02.  You can automate this without GUI scripting.  You need to follow the menu path Goto->Other Rules (BDC_OKCODE POSI) while in the "Maintain Settlement Rule: Overview" screen.  This will display a dialog box to enter the rule number.  Once you've entered the rule number and clicked the "green check" (BDC_OKCODE FURT) the rule you specified will be on line 1 on.  Then it is just a matter of updating the field(s) you need, taking into account row number.  Also, this method is predicated on you knowing what rule number(s) you want to update.  I hope this helps.

This is an example of grabbing some information from KO03, but the process would be the same in KO02.
