The conversion program supports:

  • SAP Factory and Freeday calendarsSAP Job definitions

These reports can be generated through a Stonebranch Utility.

Both formats can be read through the File Menu Option. Since there can be multiple calendar files, please read all factory calendars first and all freeday calendars second.

Third, read the Read the directory containing the SAP Job definition files. The corresponding values in the CALENDARID keyword will hook up to the calendars and their custom days. The conversion program recognizes different SAP calendar records by their lengths. Records that do not match are discarded.

SAP Calendars

A calendar file can contain many calendar IDs, each describing different years. All unique calendar IDs are stored with a prefix describing its function. A working day (flagged 1 in the file) will be set accordingly in the created calendar, hence different workday definitions.

  • Records older than 730 days are discarded, leaving only the last one or two years valid.
  • Records newer than 1500 days are discarded, leaving the first 4 or 5 upcoming years valid.

The log will display which records are discarded.

SAP Job Definitions

Job definition files should be in a separate directory when using the conversion program.

The following job definition file:

<pre>
/* Job Header statement. */
JOBNAME = "SAP_CONV_002_MULTI_STEP_DAILY"


/* ABAP Step statement. */
ABAP_STEP = "STEP 0"
   ABAP_PROGRAM_NAME  = "ZNBU_ABAP_STEP_001"



/* ABAP Step statement. */
ABAP_STEP                   = "STEP 1"
   ABAP_PROGRAM_NAME = "ZNBU_ABAP_STEP_002"




/* ABAP Step statement. */
ABAP_STEP                   = "STEP 2"
   ABAP_PROGRAM_NAME = "ZNBU_ABAP_STEP_001"

If an EVENTPARM is present, a Task Monitor will be created pointing to the task in the EVENTPARM value.

Exporting SAP Definitions to UAC

The API currently does not support scripts or credentials. It is therefore possible only to load scripts and credentials by generating XML files and loading them manually.

This means you have to load UAC in either of two ways:

...

...

  1. Save as UAC .xml.
  2. Import all XML files.
