Help on ABAP

We know that there is option to send mail directly from ABAP, but it uses SAP account to send email. In many cases we may not have access or configuration to send email from SAP directly. In certain scenario it might be necessary to send email with outlook, but we want SAP to populate some text/information in advance. We will be using OLE objects for the same.     DATA : lr_outlook  TYPE  ole2_object ,         lr_mi  TYPE  ole2_object ,         lv_body  TYPE  string ,         lv_sig  TYPE  string .    CREATE  OBJECT lr_outlook  'Outlook.Application' .    CALL  METHOD  OF       lr_outlook        'CreateItem'  =  lr_mi      EXPORTING       #1         ...

DON’T USE THESE UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NEEDED. The purpose of transport request is to organize and move development objects from one server (say development) to other server. But sometime due to conflict in timing of different releases, we may need to move objects from one transport to other transport to release lock / dependency / to avoid transport failure due to missing object. It’s not very easy task always, especially if the Transports are complex and contain multiple components. Things get more difficult if objects are locked in one transport or the transport is partially released (few tasks are released and locked object is inside that task). These off hand tips will help developer to manipulate transport request if complex situation arises. These methods are not very advisable as this may lead to transport inconsistency if not done properly or with proper understanding of the consequences. How to toggle the status of a Transport request? Here is a transport request where o...

You can improve the performance of your code by measuring execution time of your program. You can use SAP Standard tools for over all performance of you program. The SAP Standard tools are * Run Time Analysis (SE30) * SQL Trace (ST05) Apart from these tool you can measure your block of code with simple ABAP coding. But you can do it during development phase only. At the end you have to remove the coding. This technique of measuring code can be helpful if you want top tweak your select queries. GET TIME STAMP FIELD t1. *Block of Code ................... GET TIME STAMP FIELD t2. runtime = t2 - t1.

We can not debug background jobs directly with the breakpoints set inside the program like usually we do during running program in foreground. But this is posibile too !! Go to SM37 - Job monitor Select the specific job you want to analyse (let's a failed job) Use transaction code - JDBG (type the transaction code in transaction code input box - at the top left corner of your screen) It will start ABAP debugger. Continue to debug !!
