SAP GUI protocol
The SAP GUI Vuser script typically contains several SAP transactions which make up a business process. A business process consists of functions that emulate user actions. Open the Step Navigator to see each user action as a Vuser script step.
In a typical recording of an SAP GUI client, include the opening of the connection and login in the first section, vuser_init This section is not repeated.
Note: The Open Connection step uses one of the connection names in the SAP Logon Descriptions list. If the specified connection name is not in the list, the Vuser looks for a server with that name.
In the Actions section, the recorded API functions represent typical user operations such as menu selection and the setting of a checkbox.
In a typical recording, the final section, vuser_end, contains the logging off steps.
When recording a multi-protocol script for both SAP GUI and Web, VuGen generates steps for both protocols. In the Script view, you can view both sapgui and web functions.
The following example illustrates a multi-protocol recording in which the SAP GUI client opens a web control. Note the switch from sapgui to web functions.
Example:
sapgui_tree_double_click_item("Use as general WWW browser, REPTITLE",
"shellcont/shell",
"000732",
"REPTITLE",
BEGIN_OPTIONAL,
"AdditionalInfo=sapgui1020",

...
sapgui_set_text("",
