Unable Testing SAP GUI with SAP IRPA

[former_member809724]

Hello together,

I am trying to make an automation on the SAP GUI System, download some data, export them in excel, make some changes there and send them via email to a person. I have a problem with testing the SAP GUI. I have enabled scripting, I have changed the value in the RZ11 transaction to TRUE, have set all the dependencies and web browser extensions.

So when I started building the workflow, I started from the end, with the Excel and Email automation and I could test everything and it was fine. Working back forward, and building the SAP Easy Access automation I had problems to test. I click on it and i could wait for hours and wouldnt go on to see some results. And it doesnt show any errors so I could google or find a solution. Has anyone an idea what it could be?

When building the SAP Easy Access automation, when I capture the screen I can declare the screen only as an UIautomation and SAP GUI is not an option, whatever I would do with the filters. Could this be the problem?

Attached a screenshot of what I meanscreenshot-37.png

Many thanks in advance,

Aristotelis

If the Scripting and playback is disabled ,it indicates that scripting is not activated properly on SAP GUI system.

For more details refer to the documentation on SAP GUI Scripting

and Protecting Critical SAP Systems | SAP Help Portal.

If the scripting is not enabed ,you can't capture the SAP GUI applications in SAP Intelligent RPA .

Thank you Chaitanya Priya for the information.

One clarification - can we enable scripting only during development phase (capturing of the application). And disable once the automation is live in production. Will disabling of scripting impact run of the bot. Thanks in advance for your inputs

Scripting should be enabled always.

My bet is there is still something else you need to enable. I'll talk to my Compliance Team and will advise.

Here SAP also mentions another component BC-FES-GUI.

Yes, this can be a problem. I have had the same several times. Usually it always got resolved by itself but the funny part is that it wasn't the case on all machines we have. I have never drawn up an incident for this because I could always switch to another machine that didn't have any issues with that. Strange. True. Who knows maybe it is worth investigating it with a consultant?

Have you tried to record a script from SAP GUI?
