SAP Tips and Tricks

• Logging on without being authorized

Client 066 usually exists in a SAP system because of EarlyWatch services. Often this client does not have master users. If it is true, anyone can log into the system using the client 066, user SAP*, and password PASS. Enjoy yourself.

• Special copy and paste

Click on the area and press CTRL+Y. It allows you to copy many lines at once and paste them afterwards.

• Long messages on footer

Click on the message and hold the mouse button. After moving the mouse to the left side.

• Direct input logs

The transaction BMV0 (direct input logs) shows all direct input logs.

• Graphics on SAPscript

The program RSTXLDMC can be used to upload graphics (file extension .tif on PC files) into individual standard text.

• Adding icons

The include «ICON» can be easily used in your programs. All icons can be checked through the transaction ICON. Sequences of characters begin and finish with the symbol @. Even plain files under operating system can contain those strings.

• Adding symbols

The include «SYMBOL» can be easily used in your programs. It makes available a great number of symbols.

• Filling up an empty date field quickly

Strike the key F4 (or click on matchcode symbol) and press ESCAPE. The current date is automatically set.

• Setting up module FI/CO without using IMG

Almost all parameters can be set using the transactions ORFA (Asset Accounting), ORFB (Financial Accounting), and ORKS (Cost Center Accounting).

• Deleting cost elements and cost centers

Since they have no postings you can use the transaction KA04 for deleting cost elements and KS04 for deleting cost centers.

• Displaying check object when not authorized

Soon after the lock try to access the transaction SU53. It reports the last objects verified and also the respective values.

• Table analyses between two systems

The contents of a table between two systems can be checked through the transaction OY19.

• Correction and transport system

             The transaction SE10 provides the easiest way to manage any request/transport and         

             corrections

This ABAP rings the bell on any chosen pc, that has a sapgui connected to SAP

Send Purchase Order by mail to vendor in SAP

This blog explains the steps involved in SAP ECC to send purchase order by email to a vendor as an attachment. Sending Purchase order by email to a vendor is called as "External Send" in SAP. Follow this Steps


1. mail address of the vendor should be maintained in the vendor master data while creating the vendor using Transaction code XK01, if vendor is already created maintain the email address using Transaction code XK02.

2. Maintain email address in your "own data", to ensure that the process has a sent from your email address (system>User Profile>Own Data).
Note: It is not possible to change the vendor email address permanently with standard purchase order transaction code ME21N or ME22N, we can maintain temporary only, for permanent change use transaction codes XK02 or MK02.

3. For output type default values, a communication strategy has to be maintained in the customization.
Menu path for communication strategy: (SPRO >IMG >SAP Web Application Server > Basic Services >Message Control > Define Communication Strategy). Here default value is communication structure is CS01 and communication type is INT (email), after configuration of relevant communication structure and communication type, we can find these entries in table TCSTRP.

4. Use standard SAP Program "SAPFM06P" FORM routine "ENTRY_NEU" and form "MEDRUCK" as processing routines for output type (ex NEU-Purchase order). For additional functionalities copy this program and smart form in to Z Program and Z form (Ex: Z_PO_PRINT and Z_PURCHASE_ORDER) and maintain these against output type (Ex: ZNEU-PO Email) by using transaction code NACE, For subject of the email goto Mail Title and Texts. In title give PO No. &EKKO-EBELN&

5. In order trigger the output type automatically in PO maintain the condition record using transaction code MN04 for output type, use medium as '5' (External send).

6. Use SCOT transaction code to trigger the output manually In SCOT transaction under INT double click on node SMTP and maintain SMTP connection.

  Mail Host: (IP address of the mail server)
  Mail Port :25
  Code Page: 4110 unicode UTF-8.(Example)
  Click on SET tab against the Internet check box and maintain
  SAPscript/Smart Forms: PDF or TXT as per requirement.

7. Status of the External send document can be seen in transaction code SOST.
