dspCompose

Create a Template Based on a New GUI Recording

A user can record a GUI script in dspCompose™ to create a template. When using this method, only those fields that are required for recording the template display.

The user must have the SAP Logon Pad installed to perform the GUI recording, and must end the recording by clicking Stop Recording in dspCompose™, not by saving data in SAP.

The process for recording a template in dspCompose™ is the same as the recording process in Integrate. Refer to Record a GUI Script  in Int

egrate for detailed information about recording a GUI template.

When a dspCompose™ template is created, an Integrate process is automatically created in the Integrate category set for dspCompose™. This category, called dspCompose, is automatically added to Integrate during installation.

To create a template based on a new GUI recording in dspCompose:

  1. Click Team in the Navigation pane.
  2. Click the Create Template icon for a team.
  3. Click Create from GUI Recording.

    NOTE: If no records exist, the page displays in add mode. Otherwise, click Add.

    View the field descriptions for the Create Template (Recording) page

  4. Enter a name in the TEMPLATE NAME field.

    NOTE: The name must be unique and can contain A-Z, 0-9, and underscore. No special characters are allowed in template names. If a special character is entered in a template name, dspCompose™ replaces it with an underscore when the template is saved.

  5. Enter the SAP transaction code in the TRANSACTION CODE field.
  6. Select an option from the CONNECTION ID list box.

    NOTE: The SAP Connection selected from the Connection list box is used for recording the template. dspCompose™ can connect to multiple SAP instances, which allows for recordings to be done in a test instance and posting to be done in a QA or production instance.

    NOTE: If a user adds a request based on this template and does not select a connection ID, the default connection assigned to the Integrate Template is used for the request. Refer to Establish a Connection to a Target System for more information.

  7. Click Save.
  8. Click the Record icon.
  9. Record the transaction.

    NOTE: Refer to Record a GUI Script in Integrate for detailed information about recording a template. Refer to BDC Script and GUI Script Recording Tips in Integrate for recording tips.

  10. Once the recording is complete, return to dspCompose™ and click Stop Recording; the Create Template (Recording) page displays.
  11. Click Create Template; a confirmation message displays.
  12. Click Ok.
