Before we begin recording a transaction, let’s launch Process Runner and initiate the process to create a new recording.
1.Launch Process Runner.
2.Go to File -> New Process -> New Transaction (from the grid icons) to record a new transaction.
'New Process' wizard is displayed.
Follow the below mentioned steps to record ME51N transaction.
Enter ME51N in Transaction Code field and click on Start Recording button.  When you click on “Start Recording”, Process Runner will ask you which SAP System to use for recording. Select the appropriate system for performing a sample transaction recording.
Please keep in mind that while you execute a recording, actual database update in SAP takes place. After you select the system, you will be prompted to enter Client, User name, Password and Logon language. Process Runner will use this information and will log you in to SAP.
Process Runner will display message similar to below in “New Process" window.
Shortly after that your normal SAP GUI should be started with transaction code you provided before. For our example, it will start Create Purchase Requisition transaction and wait for your input. |
