Hey there,

after I upgraded from 7.20 to 7.30 the Excel inplace view no longer works:

Excel opens in the SAP GUI "iView" an freezes:

I found some OSS notes and updated to patch level 1, but still the same. Any ideas besides downgrading or waiting for patch level 2?

Thanks!

Hi,

Any tips on how to handle this situation ...

We use a lot of notifications for different things, we are using them for our helpdesk system and now for something else... We also use the worklists for notifications and the various workflows.

So I have 2 flavours for a notification transaction IQS23, and 2 of the worklist and of the workflow inbox, how do I get Personas to know which flavour I want it to render based on which worklist or business process I'm coming at it from?

I have shortlinks created for all my transactions but that doesn't seem to matter since I'm coming at the transaction from a worklist or workflow inbox.

This must be possible...

thanks,

Neil

Hi Community,

I need your Help. I have created an excel macro which gets into SAP system, enters to a transaction, chooses a variant, it downloads it to my computer and then it makes some changes to the file.

Basicaly, what I want to do is to add a progress bar while the macro is running, the idea is to replace the screenupdating with the progress bar.

Please find below the macro code:

Sub GMP()

Hi all,

if I update my installation server with the "SAP GUI for Windows 7.30 CORE" patch, other components versions like "SAPSetup" get updated too.

1. Question

Is there a overview which Patch Level / Versions are provided to the components if I update my installation server with the "SAP GUI for Windows 7.30 CORE" patch?

2. Question

If not, where am I able to find the Patch Level / Versions info for the components in my installation server? If I search through the "NwSapSetupAdmin.exe" and compare this with the info given on the SAP marketplace website "Support Packages and Patches" located in the download section it is not really proper.

For example after patching my running installation server to "SAP GUI for Windows 7.30 CORE" Patch Level 8 and the today's information given on the "Support Packages and Patches" website:

3. Question

Whats the difference between the following versions of SAPSetup? They are all from the same date and all with the same info file.

Thanks in advance for your hints.

Best regards,

Christian

Hi All,

Can anyone let me know what are the major updates in the SAP GUI 730.

Any note that says this..The release note with each patch is too grainy and i cannot consolidate what are the major updates.

We are currently on patch level 1 and SAP GUI have patch 8 released?

Can someone kindly assist in identifying the major updates in SAP GUI 730?

Thanks,

Deep Desai

We often receive inquiries about the roadmap for SAP Screen Personas. While revenue recognition rules prevent us from sharing specific product features, version numbers, or release dates, I would like to share some information about the general direction of the product and how development is progressing.

We have had many conversations with SAP Screen Personas customers about what they love about the product and what areas they would like to see improved. These are ongoing discussions that drive product development based on their feedback. Over the past few months, several categories have emerged. These are reflected in the key themes for the next major release:

• Tighter integration with Web GUI (SAP GUI for HTML) - Several customers have expressed concerns about the dependency on Silverlight, since Microsoft is only supporting it through 2021. So, we are working on a version of SAP Screen Personas that is entirely based on HTML. The plan is to leverage HTML5 features if the browser supports them, but still support some legacy browsers. It will run everywhere the Web GUI runs, because we plan to integrate Personas into the Web GUI, although still a separately licensable component.
• More powerful scripting - Advanced implementations of Personas generally include scripting. Some customers have pushed the product beyond where we expected when it came to automating keyboard and back-end actions. So, for these people, we are planning to deliver a more powerful scripting engine, along with an easier interface to access this functionality.
• Improved performance - A new, simplified architecture should deliver faster performance. Also, we are planning to change the way we perform certain actions, also with the goal of making Personas screens render faster. Since Personas is planned to be part of the Web GUI, this remains the benchmark against which any speed comparisons should be performed. SAP GUI may still be faster in certain cases, but we expect to narrow the gap.
• Further usability improvements - As customers rolled out larger scale deployments of SAP Screen Personas with more users, transactions, and flavors, they uncovered several tasks that we could have made easier. We plan to address these concerns by streamlining the admin user interface.
• Advanced properties easier to access - While it was always possible to do lots of very cool stuff by using the advanced properties editor, you needed to know how to open this window and find the various properties. We are planning to expose these items so everything will be accessible through the main menu structure. This would give more people access to these capabilities.

Development Update
We are making steady progress on the next major release of SAP Screen Personas. The development team has grown to include developers from the kernel team and core UI team in addition to the custom development and SAP Imagineering organizations. This cross-departmental team ensures that the necessary integrations among the different components will work smoothly. Interestingly, the broader development team is what will allow us to deliver a simpler architecture, which we expect will deliver improved performance.

Ongoing Co-Innovation
We are working with several existing Personas customers on the next version. They are providing their use cases (including screens and scripts) and we are testing these to validate functionality. They are also part of some design reviews to ensure that we continue to raise the bar on usability.

Roadmap Disclaimer
Let me also include the standard SAP roadmap disclaimer that everything mentioned here is subject to change without notice and we are not committing to delivering any of the functionality discussed above.

To avoid questions that will potentially take us into murky waters regarding revenue recognition, I have disabled comments on this post.

And apparently upset several people by doing so.

For SAP Screen Personas, Peter Spielvogel.

We have installed Personas and done the configuration but in when we are trying to access Personas in browsers , we are getting "You are not allowed to access this system. If this is not correct , please contact your system administrator"

we have done all configurations in SPRO , managed system , created roles (tried with permission -1 also). How we can solve this issue?

Hi Gurus,

I have made some changes to screen using GUIXT and they are visible for all clients (Servers for Client , A Client B... ).

This should not happen..

Is there any way to restrict changes to particular server of a client  only..

Please suggest. Also let me know disadvantages of using GUIXT.

Hi There,

I'm currently working on a Screen Persona project for a large Dutch client and really challenging Screen Persona's.

I have a couple of questions about the use of flavors:

- Is it possible to prevent users from using the 'Basic View'? Our client wants to block some functionality/information for their users.

- Is it possible to create 2 different script-buttons which refer to the same 'transaction(code)' opening with different flavors.

Regards,

Jasper

Hello everyone,

For a project, I am looking into the simplification of the me21n transaction through SAP Screen Personas. This is working well but when I enter data in the items table and press enter, the header data collapses and the item detail data is expanded.

Can someone tell me if it is possible to keep the header data expanded at all times, even after I enter item data?

Kind regards,

Iemke Kooyman

Hi,

We configured SAP Screen Personas test landscape.

When I launch the mainapp page, the system is prompting for user credentials.

Then I get "System Selection" screen where the system I have configured  (SAP ECC).

When I click on system backend, an new popup ask for user and password (SAP ECC credentials).

We are trying to understand if it is possible configure SSO to access ECC backend.

So, the ECC backend credentials will not be required anymore.

I am not sure if it is possible this configuration.

According SAP note 1684886 - License conditions of SNC Client Encryption, I think this scenario requires additional license.

Any help to resolve this is highly appreciated.

Best Regards,

Leonardo.

   I just started learning to use a Screen Personas, and I want to know how to add a search help for a field.

   I found a property in the help document named "IsLookupSupported". Is it the key?  But I saw it was gray in the field I created, and its value is "false". I could not change it.

Hi Gurus,

Is there already a SAPGUI for Android? I'm looking at acquiring a Samsung Galaxy tab. Help will be truly appreciated.

Regards,

Kennedy.

Our client  want to simplify the ME11 ( Purchase Inforecord screen ) using SAP Personas. They  want to bring the values in the Conditions Tab along with their Scale values in the same screen or Table structure. Currentlty the standard ME11 transaction is displaying the Condition data and Scales details of each Condtion types in separate screens. Is it possible to club the content for a Field which is in one screen with another Screen in SAP Personas. Request you to please provide your inputs in this regard.

Hi experts,

Is there anyway to change the system language when already connected without disconnect/reconnect?

Thanks.

Hello Personas Users,

Since the beginning of the afternoon, I am facing some issue.

I would like to know if it's possible to hide a frametext in a personas flavor screen? Can we change the attributes of the frame in Javascript?

In fact, I tried to hide/unhide the first frametext (Organization Data) of VA01 transaction by clicking on a custom button.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
