Mass Project versions creation

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I tried searching forums and Google but not found relevant one for my requirement.

As of now, at the end of every month, we are creating Project versions for all valid Projects (through one Y/Z Transaction Code which have call transaction code CN71 BDC written inside). Here user is giving input only for one field 'Period' as 'YYYYMM' and then click on execute. System creates Project versions for all valid Projects for that Period. But this process takes too much time, user needs to keep session open and not possible to schedule this Y/Z Transaction code as background job.

My requirement is to create Project versions for all active Projects (Not closed, not deleted) with minimum user inputs. I tried searching BAPI but not found relevant one.

Could you please share if you come across such kind of requirement and solution ?

Thanks,

Hi Swapnil,

I think your z program is using call transaction method in BDC. Can you please check with your developer , whether he convert it to bdc session method. BDC session can be run in background.

Thanking you

Hi Vengaiah,

We tried converting it to BDC session and running it in background, but it takes too long time and after which the job gets cancelled. Hence, still issue remains. Could you please suggest ?

Thanks,
