Calculate the runtime with ABAP

Calculate runtime in microseconds :


DATA: lw_t1          TYPE i,
      lw_t2          TYPE i,
      lw_elapsed     TYPE i.
 
* Get the time and put in lw_t1.
GET RUN TIME FIELD lw_t1.
 
* Wait 3 seconds.
CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUE_SLEEP'
  EXPORTING
    SECONDS = 3.
 
* Get the time and put in lw_t2.
GET RUN TIME FIELD lw_t2.
 
* Calculate the different between lw_t2 and lw_t1.
lw_elapsed = lw_t2 - lw_t1.          " In microseconds.
lw_elapsed = ELAPSED / 1000000.      " In seconds.
 
* Display the runtime.
WRITE:/ ' Runtime =', lw_elapsed, 'seconds'.

If your measure may overload 36 min, do not store the run time in a type i (integer) variable.
You should use a type numeric, like :


DATA: lw_t1(200)          TYPE n,

My ABAP code snippets

Below, my personal code snippets :

Use statement CLIENT SPECIFIED when mandant is specified in SELECT statement

If you want to add the mandant in your where clause (to force use of an index for instance), you have to add statement CLIENT SPECIFIED.


    SELECT * FROM table_name CLIENT SPECIFIED INTO TABLE gi_table_name
      FOR ALL ENTRIES IN li_table
      WHERE mandt     = sy-mandt                 " To force Index 001
        AND field1    = li_table-field1
        AND field1    = li_table-field2.

Display messages in popup


  CALL FUNCTION 'C14ALD_BAPIRET2_SHOW'
    TABLES
      I_BAPIRET2_TAB = T_RETURN_MESSAGE. " T_RETURN with type BAPIRET2_TAB

Add message in BAPIRET2 table

                            pw_id   TYPE sy-msgid

SAP PM transaction codes

Here are only displayed the transaction I most use.

IL03 : Display Functional Location (Afficher poste technique)

IQ03 : Display Material Serial Number (Afficher le numéro de série d’un article)

IE03 : Display Equipment (Afficher Equipement)

Open popup window to choose a diretory

Use method : cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse.

Write spool in color

Create spool to display it later in SP01, SP02…

With code below, you can easily add lines in spool like that :


    ls_text-color = c_color_jaune.
    CONCATENATE 'Error on PN' lw_matnr INTO ls_text-text SEPARATED BY space.
    APPEND ls_text TO gt_text.

    CLEAR ls_text.
    ls_text-color = c_color_rouge.
    APPEND ls_text TO gt_text.
