Import Recording

This topic describes how to import an already existing recording from SAP and Excel.

To import an existing recording

  1. Select File > New Process > New Transaction or select Transaction (TX) available on the left side of the New Process window.
  2. Enter MM02 and select Import Recording. The Import Recording window is displayed.
  3. Select From SAP (SHDB) and Get Recording List from SAP.
  4. Enter MM02 in the Select Recording box. The complete recording is displayed in the grid. You can add or delete records according to your business needs, just like you can do in the Mapper tab.
  5. Select Import. The Magnitude Connector for SAP window is displayed. Perform the following steps:
    1. Select the SAP system, select Logon, and enter the information for Client, User, Password, and Language.
    2. Select OK. The recording is imported into Process Runner and Process Runner opens the Process file as [MM02 | *NEW*].
  6. To map the Excel columns and cells to SAP Fields, perform the following steps:
    1. Go to the Mapper tab, select Advanced View. A detailed view of the mapper, including the fields that are automatically mapped, is displayed.
    2. Update the mappings; map the fields to the Excel columns by entering the map values or using the drag-and-drop functionality. Optionally, clear the fields that you do not require.
  7. To save the Process file, select File > Save > Save As Local, enter the name for the Process file, and select Save.
  8. To run the Process file, select Run and perform the following:
    1. Select the SAP system, enter client, user name, password, and language.
    2. Select OK. Process Runner runs the recorded Transaction and maps the data according to the mapper settings. Process Runner builds a data package by merging recorded transaction with mapped Excel and other values and send this package to SAP transaction for processing. When SAP completes running the transaction, Process Runner retrieves the transaction status and messages from SAP and places them in the next available empty columns in the Excel file.
