Re: who will release request number?
To release the request, go to transaction code SE09..search
your request no..

double click on the request, you will get sub task, in that
u will get one option called component, whatever component
like script form, standard text, se38 program, you have
attached in that request, all those component would appear
under the component tab.

Go to main request no, select it..
You will get ne truck kind of symbol, which is being used
To transport the request from one client to other.

here you need to give sending as well as receiving client
details like

D16-300 (Development Client)

Q16-310 (Testing Client)

Sending Receiving Client
D16- 300 Q16-310.

Click on Import button..
this will import the data from one client to other..

Sometimes, programmer do this job or bases guy/Functional
consultant doing this job.
who will release request number?
I JUST WANT TO SAY REQUEST WILL BE CREATED BY THE
DEVELOPER
OR ABAPERS , AND IT IS RELEASED BY THE TEAM LEADER FROM
DEVELOPMENT TO QUALITY , AND FROM QUALITY TO PRODUCTION
IT
WILL RELEASE BY THE BASIS PEOPLE.

Re: What is the difference between At selection screen and At selection screen
on output?
AT SELECTION SCREEN : TO VALIDATE ALL FIELDS.when ever user

error , system redisplays the screen by enabling all fields.

AT SELECTION SCREEN on : to validate a specified field.
whenever user presses enter this event is triggered .if there
is any error, system redisplays the screen by enabling only
that particular field & disables all the fields.

AT SELECTION SCREEN OUTPUT : THIS EVENT IS TRIGGERED
BEFORE
SELECTION SCREEN APPEARS. here u can perform user defined
actions like making fields mandatory, hide like that.

Re: How do u know that updation is successful in BDC .
CALL TRANSACTION has some parameters:
1.transaction code
2. bdcdata
3.display_mode
4 update_ mode
5.messages (bdcmsgcoll)


all the messages are captured in table bdcmsgcoll. So you
can loop at this table and show the messages at output list.
and also which ever tcode for which you have run the BDC
code for .eg. say MM01 ,you can view the same in MM03.

Re: After running a BDC program in background, next day morning when
you see the results, few records are not updated(error records). What will you
do then?
we look into the list of incorrect session and process it
again.to correct incorrect session we analyze the session
to determine which screen and value produced the error.for
small errors in data we correct them interactively
otherwise modify batch input program that has generated the
session or many times even the datafile.
(Or)
we will analyze errors, if errors are data errors we will
correct data or if they are because of program error then
we will correct the program and process them once again.

Re: what is difference b/w like and type statements?give example? when to
use like and when to use type?
when refering to type-pool you need to use TYPE
declaration, and LIKE is used to refer your already
declared variable. And for declaring native types 'N' 'C'
you cannot use LIKE there.

data: matnr like mara-matnr,
matnr1 type mara-matnr.

will not make any difference in the program. however

data: matnr type mara-matnr,
matnr1 like matnr. when the attribute of matnr
changes will affect matnr1 also.

and LIKE statement become obselete in Object programming.
you can use TYPE statements only there.

Re: Hi, can any one tell me the following question's answer
1.How can we validate single selection screen field and multiple selection

brief with example.
2.What is search help ? pls tell search help type briefly with example?


selection screen validations are doing in At selection
screen on field event. In this event u can write ur screen
validations.

Eg:

Select-option: carrid1 for sflight-carrid.

At Selection-screen.
if carrid1-low = ' ' and carrid1-high= ' ';
error msg
endif
In above example, if u did not enter any values for carrid1,
then it displays error message
In module pool programming, validations are doing in PAI event
example:
Field sflight-carrid values('LH')

In this example, u must enter value LH, other wise the
screen is not moving.

Re: what is the diff b/w error and exceptions ?
In any programming language there can be three kinds of errors.

1. "Syntax Errors":
The mistakes done while writing statements. For
example, instead of "WRITE", if you type "WIRTE" it is a
syntax error.Compiler can detect these types of errors. You
will not able to be run the program till these errors are
rectified.

2. "Runtime Errors (Exceptions)":
Runtime Errors are thrown when the situation occurs
during execution of program where the system will not
know how to deal with such situation. For example, you have
written a program that takes an excel file and reads the
data and stores in the database. You have done the program
perfectly. No syntax errors.But while executing the
program, if the user enters a filename that does not exist,
the program will not know what to do next, at that time
runtime error occurs. Runtime error terminates the
execution of the program abruptly. Runtime errors mostly
occur due to incorrect user entries or improper usage of
system resources by program. These runtime errors can be
avoided if we catch the exceptions. You can handle every
possible exception and throw user defined messages during
the execution and avoid abrupt termination of the program.

3. " Logical Errors":
Logical errors are obviously the mistake done in the
logic by programmer. For example, Value = Rate - Discount
is the normal universal calculation. By mistake if you have
typed Value = Rate + Discount, it is neither syntax error
nor runtime error. Your program is successful but result is
wrong.
NOTE: This can be corrected only through thorough
study of the program or worst case debugging.

extract record to it. In each subsequent EXTRACT statement,
the new extract record is added to the dataset.

Re: when u already have predefined tool LSMW for uploading data....which
is more easy and efficient to use and less programming is required..then whats
the need to write a program in BDC.... whats the main purpose....?
LSMW and BDC are vastly different.
BDC (Batch Data Communication) is a technology used for data
transfer. it is meant for transferring data thru SAP
transactions itself. when u use BDC for data transfer, the
sequence of steps is the same as when u use standard sap
transaction screens for data upload. the only difference is
that u can use different options for foreground/backgrou nd
processing.

LSMW on the other hand is a tool that helps migrate data
from a legacy system (non-sap system ) to SAP system. it
offers u various options to use either batch input, direct
input, BAPIs or idocs. it involves a series of some 17-18
steps to migrate data.

BDC:
Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of
transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system
or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.

Features :
BDC is an automatic procedure.
This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is
available in electronic medium.
BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and
when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.

Types of BDC :
CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
CALL TRANSACTION

BATCH INPUT METHOD:
This method is also called as CLASSICAL METHOD.
Features:
Asynchronous processing.
Synchronous Processing in database update.
Transfer data for more than one transaction.
Batch input processing log will be generated.
During processing, no transaction is started until the
previous transaction has been written to the database.

CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.

Features:
Synchronous processing. The system performs a database
commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION
USING statement.
Updating the database can be either synchronous or
asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
Transfer data for a single transaction.
Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
No batch input processing log is generated.

LSMW:

The LSM Workbench is an R/3-based tool that supports You
when transferring data from non-SAP systems ("Legacy
Systems") to R/3 once or periodically.
The tool supports conversion of data of the legacy system in
a convenient way. The data can then be imported into the R/3
system via batch input, direct input, BAPIs or IDocs.
Furthermore, the LSM Workbench provides a recording function
that allows to generate a "data migration object" in an
entry or change transaction.

The main advantages of the LSM Workbench:
Part of R/3 and thus independent of individual platforms
A variety of technical possibilities of data conversion:
Data consistency due to standard import techniques:
Batch input
Direct input
BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces)
IDocs (Intermediate Documents)
The import technique to be used in an individual case
depends on the business object.
Generation of the conversion program on the basis of
defined rules
Clear interactive process guide
Interface for data in spreadsheet format
Creation of data migration objects on the basis of
recorded transactions
Charge-free for SAP customers and SAP partners

i hope it is clear

plz do let me know, if any update.

its same as PBO in module pool-- generally we use this
event for scenerio like filling the list box etc.)
2) at selection-screen (this event gets called when the
user presses enter or execute -- generally we use this
event to carry out validations)
3) at selection-screen on value request(this event will get
called only when the user presses F4 on a specific field on
the selection screen.)

1. Maintain object attributes.
2. maintain source structures.
3. Maintain source fields.
4. Maintain structure relations.
5. Maintain fields mapping and conversion rules.
6. Maintain Fixed values, translations and user defined
routines.
7. Specify files.
8. Assign files.
9. Import data.
10.Display imported data.
11.Convert data.
12.Display converted data.
13.Create batch input session.
14.Run batch input session.
Re: which method is suitable for call transaction asynchronous or

Re: 3) What happens if there is no CLOSE_GROUP in a BDC.?
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP needs no parameters. It automatically closes
the session that is currently open in your program.

You must close a session before you can open another session
from the same program.

You cannot re-open a session once it has been closed. A new
call to BDC_OPEN_GROUP with the same session name creates a
new session with the same name.
In start of selection, if we perform validation, what happens ?
Nothing happend, because start-of-selection triggers after
