SAP BASIS – Como pasar textos SO10

Una funcional me pidio pasar textos con la SO10 de desarrollo a calidad. Resulta que esa transaccion no tiene una manera de meter los cambios en ordenes de transporte, ni tampoco una funcion de export que sirva (tiene, pero no logro que exporte algo que sirva despues para importar el mismo texto).

Asi que yo estaba haciendo copy & paste de los textos, con el INRI adicional de tener que formatearlos manomaticamente, ya que el copy & paste NO COPIA EL FORMATO EN LA SO10.

Entonces, otra funcional me dio el siguiente dato que me salvo la mañana:

En la SE30, ejecuta el programa RSTXSCRP. Este programa sirve para exportar e importar formas, estilos o textos a un archivo de texto. Tambien tiene la opcion de subir el archivo a un mandante. De esta manera, pase un monton de formatos en breves minutos, en lugar de horas y tiene la ventaja adicional de que, cuando los tenga que pasar a produccion, no tendre que escribirlos a mano con la propension a errores que ese metodo causa

SAP BASIS – Modify a IMG view from configuration to master data

A PSCD functional consultant requested me to change the IMG configuration activity "Configure Dunning Procedure" (view V_TFK047C) so it can be changed directly in the production system, instead of the default method of changing it in development and transporting the changes to production. Also, having a transaction to execute the activity instead of going there by the long SPRO route is a nice plus.

To achieve this I used 2 SAP notes, and none of them refer to the specific view involved in the request.

First, I used note "515874 – Table LRF_WKQU Customizing or Master Data?". This transaction explains how to create a transaction from a IMG view. What I did:

– Call transaction SE93
– New transaction Z_DUNNING_AMOUNT
– Transaction text "Dunning Procedure – Amount Limits"
– Start object "Transaction with parameters (Transaction parameter)". Press enter.
– In the default values part:
a. Fill in SM30 as the transaction being called.
b. Mark the skip initial screen option.
– In the classification part:
a. Mark the inherit GUI attributes (this may do automatically the next point).
b. Make sure the Professional User Transaction option is marked. This should mark GUI support for the 3 GUIs.
– In the default values (parameters) part fill in the following:
a. As first screen field enter the field VIEWNAME. Press Tab and fill the value
V_TFK047C as the view name.
b. As the second screen field enter the field SHOW. Press Tab and fill the value "X" as the value.
– Save. Use the appropiate Z package that we have for PSCD

Ready, now you have your own transaction.

For the changing from customizing to master data, I used the note "356483 – Customizing: Current settings in the test system"

– Call transaction SE54
– Enter the Customizing object (view or table)
– Select "Generated objects"
– Choose "Create/change"
– Select "no, or user, recording routine" in the bottom part of the screen
– Save the change. It’ll request 2 SSCR keys and a transport order.

By the way, what a crummy and crappy NEW interface has sevice.sap.com/sscr !!! This SAP guys really reach new heights in giving the users the worst time !!! They changed the text boxes to non-editable combo-boxes, and now, a process that a month ago took seconds, now takes minutes. Another thing that’s screwed up, is when you try to copy and paste the list of registered objects, the pasting is AWFULLLLLLLLLLLL !!! Instead of pasting the original table, it now pastes a word in each line of your document !!!

SSCR now sucks big time…
