Basic Knowledge and System Navigation Question: Bhaskar

To close a window in SAP, right click the X button in the top right corner and select "stop transaction". This is equivalent to closing a window in Windows. User-specific parameters supply default values for R/3 fields, automatically filling in values depending on the field definition. There are five types of messages in R/3 - A (abend), E (error), W (warning), I (information), and S (success) - which have different effects during list processing such as terminating transactions or resuming processing. A data dictionary or repository is a central catalog that contains data descriptions and relationships to provide metadata for programs and screens.

Basic Knowledge and System Navigation Question

How to close a window?


If we want to stop a transaction in the middle, Right click on the end button (X) on the top right corner
of the window. Then select "stop transaction".
As we dont have STOP icon as we have in WINDOWS, this will help in the same way.
Its a very small tip, but will help a lot.

Name two ways to start a transaction.


- Dynamic Menu
- Command Field
Why do you create user-specific parameters?
They supply defaults to R/3 fields. If a field is indicated, the system automatically fills in default value.
Depending on the field definition, the entry can also be replaced with a value entered by the user.
(Concept of PARAMETER ID)
Name the three different kinds of messages in the R/3 system. What is the difference between
them?
A message can have five different types. These message types have the following effects during list
processing:
A (=Abend):
The system displays a message of this message type in a dialog window. After the user confirms the
message using ENTER, the system terminates the entire transaction (for example SE38).
E (=Error) or W (=Warning):
The system displays a message of this message type in the status line. After the user chooses ENTER,
the system acts as follows:
While creating the basic list, the system terminates the report.
While creating a secondary list, the system terminates the corresponding processing block and keeps
displaying the previous list level.
I (=Information):
The system displays a message of this message type in a dialog window. After the user chooses
ENTER , the system resumes processing at the current program position.
S (=Success):
The system displays a message of this message type on the output screen in the status line of the
currently created list.
What is a data dictionary or repository?
Central catalog that contains the descriptions of an organization's data and provides information about
the relationships between the data and its use in programs and screens.
The data descriptions in a Data Dictionary is also called metadata, i.e., data that describes other data.
The ABAP/4 Dictionary stores system-wide data definitions. When you create a new data definition,
the Dictionary tool does all the processing necessary to create the definition. You can use the
Dictionary tool to look up the "definition" of objects in your R/3 System.
What is a matchcode?
Comparsion key. A matchcode allows you to locate the key of a particular database record (e.g.
account number) by entering any field value contained in the record. The system then displays a list of
records matching the specifications.
If you want an end user to see a specific menu after logging on the R/3 system, how could you do
that?
User maintenance transactions allow the system administrator to create and maintain user master
records. This includes the generation and assignment of authorizations and authorization profiles.
