Step 1 - Provide SAP transaction code and log in to SAP

For our example, Transaction code is FB50. Enter FB50 in Transaction Code field and click on Start Recording button.

When you click “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, Username, 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 Sales Order (VA01) transaction and wait for your input.

Hints:

A.   Depending on your network connection speed, SAP GUI may not appear right away. In that case, just be patient and wait a while before taking any other action.

B.   Sometime, you may not see SAP GUI if it remains in back of Process Runner screen or Windows minimizes it. In such a case, look at window’s task bar, If Process Runner launched SAP GUI, it will be the last application, simply click on it to select it. Alternatively you can use Alt + Tab key to switch through all open application windows and select SAP GUI. If you already have few other SAP GUI sessions launched, look for one with your transaction.

C.   To cancel the recording process, click on “Cancel” button and follow the on-screen instructions.
