call transaction and bdc and f4

hi gurus,

we are using call transaction to call a sap transaction to process online,

opt-dismode = 'E'.

opt-defsize = 'X'.

opt-nobinpt = 'X'.

CALL TRANSACTION 'PP03' USING bdcdata_tab OPTIONS FROM opt.

we use bdcdata_tab to set some initial values, it works fine.

but we found out that the f4 help of the called transaction's field is different from what it looks like when it processed directly in the called transaction.

i guess it 's related with the bdc option

could you pls tell me how to let the called transction works exactly the same as it's processed directly?

Dear Angelo,

the program works, but my customer want the called transaction to show the F4 popup screen

with exactly the same look when it's processed directly. is that possible ?

now the f4 popup is a simple screen instead of the nicer one with max hits options.

I'm not sure, if the issue is with the CALL TRANSACTION.....statement, however can you check the settings for the F4 help in your customer system.

To check the F4 settings, please follow the menu path Help->Settings->F4 help.

I got some clue now,

before f4 is displayed , a function module BDC_RUNNING is called ,

if it's in the called transaction, the BI_INFO-CTU_AKTIV will be set to 'X'.

then the old f4 screen is shown.

does anyone know how to solve this ?
