Posted By James Lofgren 07-20-2021 10:35
Found In Egroup: Automate \ view thread
Hey Krista, In each solution there should be a solution field that is automatically created called ErrorRows. This field is an integer to tell you how many errors were in the previous AutoRun plugin. You should be able to directly use "ErrorRows == 0" to confirm that there were no errors. Here ...

RE: Adding Rows to Repeating Table on Multiple Views

Alternatively, you can have Table 1 exist on View 2 but hidden, and then use a Copy Data Table rule as a View rule to run on load. Then you don't have to manage when to execute the Copy Data Rule based on log messages or anything. You can just rely on whatever is sent to View 2. ------------------------------ ...

Hey Krista, I would probably have the extension table from View 2 also on View 1 but hidden, then use the Copy Table Data rule to transfer the data between the tables after the execution of the table 1. That way, it will be invisible to View 1, but will be pre-populated and visible in View 2. ...

Good news! My previous response was wrong haha. Apparently you can now be a participant in an Excel Workflow with a Standard license. There are still limitations on Standard users in the Excel Add-In, as they are not able to do any SAP interactions such as Validate, query, or post data through Excel. ...

Hey Tom, Thanks for letting us know about this behavior on the Connect Login. I have logged it as a bug to have this checked out.

Hey Darrell, For Winshuttle Scripts, the file path will be required when uploading to SAP. There may be some functions in Excel itself that can help populate that file path based on creation / modified dates on files, but from what I have seen those functions themselves require the path to be provided ...

Hey Joao, Thank you so much for reaching out! To interact with the attachment controls you will very likely need to use the GUI Scripting recording method in Winshuttle. This records all actions on the screen, and runs in the foreground, so it will behave a bit different than what you might be accustomed ...

I came here to give the same recommendation actually hahah. You can also use the Transform functions to generate the concatenation so that whenever the script is ran it will create that as part of the run. https://docs.winshuttle.com/studio-en-12-1-x-online-help-studio-w-connect/12/add-transforms-qs.htm ...

Hi Ben, For your ME21N script, can you tell me if the steps to set the Filter in the details section is inside of your loop or outside of your loop? In other words, is it going through the filter selection process for each line item or is that set outside of the loop? That may be impacting processing ...
