This topic describes how to configure the Insert Advanced Row options for Transaction and GUI Scripting Process files.

To configure the advanced row options

  1. Open the Process file that you want to update and go to the Mapper tab.
  2. Select Other Action > Insert Advanced Row and one of the following options:
    • Insert "Save" File Window Row: Allows you to configure the following options in the Save-File Path and Name Settings window:
      • Field Description: Indicates the field description that is displayed in the Mapper grid.
      • Save File Option: Indicates whether the existing file must be overwritten or a new file must be created.
      • Map Type: Indicates the mapping type.
      • Map Value: Indicates the map value.
      • Suppress Excel message when saving file: Indicates that Process Runner must handle the Excel message internally.

      Note: SAP uses the Save File pop-up window of Windows operating system in some cases for saving a file. This pop-up might get skipped while recording. Therefore, Insert "Save" File Window Row is used to handle such pop-ups. For an example about when to use the Insert "Save" File Window Row option, see Handle Windows File Dialog.

    • Insert "Open" File Window Row: Allows you to configure the following options in the Upload File Path and Name Settings window:
      • Field Description: Indicates the field description that is displayed in the Mapper grid.
      • Map Type: Indicates the mapping type.
      • Map Value: Indicates the map value.
    • Note: SAP uses the Open File pop-up window of Windows operating system in some cases for opening a file. This pop-up might get skipped while recording. Therefore, Insert "Open" File Window Row is used to handle such pop-ups.

    • Insert "Browse for folder" Row: Allows you to configure the following options in the Browse For Folder Settings window:
      • Field Description: Indicates the field description that is displayed in the Mapper grid.
      • Map Type: Indicates the mapping type.
      • Map Value: Indicates the map value.

      Note: SAP uses the Browse File pop-up window of Windows operating system in some cases while browsing for a file. This pop-up might get skipped while recording. Therefore, Insert "Browse for folder" Row is used to handle such pop-ups.

    • Insert Excel Report Row: Allows you to configure the following options in the Excel File Path and Name Settings window:
      • Field Description: Indicates the field description that is displayed in the Mapper grid.
      • Save File Option: Indicates whether the existing file must be overwritten or a new file must be created.
      • Map Type: Indicates the mapping type.
      • Map Value: Indicates the map value.

      Note: SAP displays the Excel Report in its own grid. Users might have to download such files externally. Therefore, you can edit the recording and insert a row to download the Excel report in addition to adding such a row through the recording. For information about how to insert such a row automatically, see SAP to Excel Report Export.

    • (Available only for Transaction) Insert "Set SPA/GPA Parameters" Rows: Inserts a row at the top of the mapper grid to set the parameters manually from the mapper. Process Runner users can edit a recording to change the parameters of user preferences that are usually loaded at the initiation of the recording.
  3. Select OK. The details are reflected in the Mapper grid.
