Looping a SAPscript

[Former Member]

Hello!

I'm using a Excel macro with a connection to SAP with the purpose to, in VA02, set system status RREC on sales order items. As the amount of item lines are unknown in each case, I want a macro that goes backwards from the last item and sets the status from the last item all the way up to item 100 which is always the first line item.

This is the idea,

It enters transaction va02

Enters the sales order

Click the button that scrolls the list all the way down

Up arrow to get to the actual last item

Goto, Item, Status

Object status

Check RREC status

Back

And now I want to loop it so it does this until the last (which is the actual first, line item 100).

session.findById("wnd[0]").resizeWorkingPane 150,25,false
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/okcd").text = "va02"
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").text = "3405192"
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").caretPosition = 7
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[1]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[83]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,3]").setFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,3]").caretPosition = 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/mbar/menu[2]/menu[2]/menu[13]").select
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_ITEM/tabpT\12/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4456/btnBT_PSTC").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").selected = true
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").setFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[3]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[1]/btn[18]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[11]").press

I don't know if this loop is supposed to be in the Excel code or in this SAPscript code.

Anyone?

Hi Matthias,

the part you need to "Loop" is this:

for i = 1 to 100    'Simple for - next !
'session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").text = "3405192" 
'replace with :
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").text = sht.cells(i,1).value  '<-- Necessary (Cell A1) for example
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").caretPosition = 7
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[1]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[83]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,3]").setFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,3]").caretPosition = 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/mbar/menu[2]/menu[2]/menu[13]").select
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_ITEM/tabpT\12/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4456/btnBT_PSTC").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").selected = true
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").setFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[3]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[1]/btn[18]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[11]").press
next 

To Refer the Sheet and Cells you should have this:

if youre Working with excel this should com in First

set sht = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Tabelle1") 'or else

Hello!

Thanks for your answer, it actually worked. Had to do some editing in my script too.

But now there is another "problem". As I said the number of item lines on each sales order differs. So with this example sales order of 13 item lines, the macro is trying on and on to set the status on the "next" item line (up to a 100 i guess?), when there is only 13 items. Is there a solution for it to automatically detect when it is on the last item line and then to move on to the next sales order? That would save alot of time.

This is how the macro looks now (there is a lot of excel stuff in it which is not posted).

SONumber = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value
SOItem = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Value

session.findById("wnd[0]").maximize
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").Text = SONumber
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/ctxtVBAK-VBELN").caretPosition = 7
session.findById("wnd[0]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[1]").sendVKey 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[83]").press

For i = 1 To 100    'Simple for - next !

session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,12]").SetFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_OVERVIEW/tabpT\02/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4401/subSUBSCREEN_TC:SAPMV45A:4900/tblSAPMV45ATCTRL_U_ERF_AUFTRAG/ctxtRV45A-MABNR[1,12]").caretPosition = 0
session.findById("wnd[0]/mbar/menu[2]/menu[2]/menu[13]").Select
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTAXI_TABSTRIP_ITEM/tabpT\12/ssubSUBSCREEN_BODY:SAPMV45A:4456/btnBT_PSTC").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").Selected = True
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/tabsTABSTRIP_0300/tabpANWS/ssubSUBSCREEN:SAPLBSVA:0302/sub:SAPLBSVA:0302[2]/chkJ_STMAINT-ANWSO[0,0]").SetFocus
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[3]").press
session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[1]/btn[18]").press

Next

session.findById("wnd[0]/tbar[0]/btn[11]").press
