E Diskette Contents

The diskette for the book contains the TRANSP and UPLOAD directories.

TRANSP Directory All development objects (domains, data elements, tables, matchcodes, logical databases, mes­sage classes, programs, etc.) used in the examples for this book have been assigned to the ZABP development class. The TRANSP directory contains all the files needed for a transport of the Y ABP development class into (unknown) Rl3-system DUM (Dummy). The following steps must be performed:

• First use FTP (WinFTP) to copy the following files in binary mode to the Rl3 transport di­rectory "/usr/sap/trans" (UNIX) or "drive\USR\SAP\TRANS" (Windows NT): - D900172.BVl to /usr/sap/trans/data (correspondingly for Windows NT) - R900172.BVl to /usr/sap/trans/data (correspondingly for Windows NT) - K900172.BVI to /usr/sap/trans/cofiles (correspondingly for Windows NT) In UNIX, all file names must be stored in uppercase and <sid>adm as owner.

• The order with the name "BVIK900172" then must be placed in the import buffer of the customer system: - Login as <sid>adm - cd /usr/sap/trans/bin - tp addtobuffer BVIK900172 <SID> Then start the import with the following command: - tp import BVIK900I72 <SID> client=<targetclient> UI Because the "DUM" SID was exported, the UI unconditional mode is significant.

UPLOAD Directory The UPLOAD directory contains all source code for the sample programs of the book (reports, includes, module pools, procedures, function modules). The Upload command can be used to load individual source code into the Workbench editor. The procedure is particularly suitable for those reports that do not access the tables of the ZABP development class, e.g., for the ZR_I L04 report to generate logical file interfaces.

The ZLF.XLS Excel folder also contains all sample tables. The ErstelleAsciiDateiO Excel macro, also contained in this folder, can be used to write these sample tables into a text file ZLF.TXT. The ZR_l L06 report can import this file into the system once the tables have been created.
