You have problem or troublesome to keep on renewing your Minisap license?? Here is the solution… ;)you can change your system date before installing Minisap license. After changing your system date only start installing.

IMPORTANT: After finish installing pls DO NOT login to your SAP first change your system date before login to SAP. You will encounter problem if you login to your SAP screen before changing your system date. Now you wont have to register your Minisap key every 3 months.

If you forgot to register your Minisap after 3 months it wont allow you to register the new key. What can you do?? It’s very simple. Just uninstall your sap and reinstall again. It will solve all the problem.

Minisap is a mini version of SAP. It’s only useful for abaper or maybe the basic for Basis. Not so sure what can do with basis but i think for beginner can try it out.

Minisap only have the function for coding…I have installed minisap in my laptop and it works fine. You can get the free license from this link minisap license. Every 3 months you are required to apply a new license.

How to get the license?
Simple get the hardware key in your pc. In DOS type in the command:
1)cd mbs
2)saplicense.exe -get.
Send the hardware key by using the link above and you will get the license. But currently I am facing problem renewing my license. Usually I renew my license before it expired but this time I missed it out. I get the license but when i want to renew it give me error. I will try to figure out how to solve it and if I found the solution I will post it here.

Hmm I have installed minisap for quite sometime…need sometime to refresh my memory.

Let start learning IDOC. IDOC is new to me as well. I learned it when I was in one of the project. It was great that I have the opportunity to learn new stuff. Back to the point… let start what you need to do with IDOC.

1) Create segment (WE31)

Of course it will have naming convention for different company. Here are some tips:

If you copy from existing or std segment eg: Z1E1EDP01_01.

If not you can just put Z1….but this is only the example.

2) Create IDOC Types (WE30)

3) Create message type (WE81)

4) Link message type with basic type (WE82)

5) Create FM

In the FM all the attributes should be the same for Inbound or Outbound. Basically you can get an example from the std FM eg: Inbound – IDOC_INPUT_DELVRY
Outbound – IDOC_OUTPUT_SHPMNT.

6) Create Process Code (Inbound – WE41/ Outbound – WE42)

IMPORTANT: Before you key in the FM, you are required to add the FM in this table V_TBD51.

7) Link FM with Basic Type

For testing go to WE19.

Here are some of the std program that you can use for IDOC:

1) RSNAST00 – Issuing Output type

2) RBDINPUT – Processing Inbound idocs

3) RBDAPP01 – Processing Idocs that already processed before

4) RBDSEMAT- Stand alone program to generate IDocs (Send Material)

5) RBDMIDOC – Outbound triggered from change pointer

6) RSEINB00 – Convert file to IDOC in status 64

1. Others people dislike might be the opportunity for you.
2. if you encounter difficulties smile and say ‘It’s time for you to grow. Face it graciously’.

3. Always set an objective and goal for every assignment or works you are going to do.
4. Do not complain until you have solution for it.
5. Always use the word I MUST instead of I WISH I CAN… a different mind set will have different way of handling works.
6. Technical skills is important whereas communication and attitude of work will be determined your success.

  • choose the table VBAP or VBAK ( depending on header or item)
  • click on button “append Structures” .
  • it will propose you the standard name for the table ZAVBAP or ZAVBAK
  • add fields with prefix ZZ
  • trans SE51 maintain user exit screens in program SAPMV45A
  • 8459 user exit item level
  • 8309 user exit header level
  • you can then design your own layout. and define your flow logic
  • PBO modules MV45AOZZ
  • PAI modules MV45AIZZ
  • Data definitions MV45ATZZ
  • Subroutines in MV45AFZZ

If your services for Object button is missing…Here is the solution. This button is useful for tracing which IDOC created the sales Order.
Solution: If you set user profile/parameter SD_SWU_ACTIVE to X by going to SYSTEM-USERPRFOLE-OWNDATA the button will be available to you again.
