STORED IN AN INTERNAL TABLE.
19.)WHAT ARE THE DIFF TYPES OF UPDATE MODES?
A.)SYNCHRONOUS
ASYNCHRONOUS
20.)WHAT IS DIFF B/W SESSION METHOD AND LSMW?

EXCEPT 950 REMAINING ALL RECORDS ARE UPDATE USING CTM.
38.)WHAT IS THE USE OF OK_CODE IN BDC?
A.)BDC_OKCODE WILL HOLD ALL THE OKCODES IN THE BDC PROGRAM,WHEN U
PASS FIELDS TO A SCREEN AFTER FILLING THE FIELDS WE NEED TO CLICK ON A
BUTTON TO MOVE OTHER SCREENS,
SO HERE BUTTON WILL HAVE A OK_CODE INTERNALLY TO KNOW THIS WE ARE
RECORDING IN A PROGRAM ,AFTER THAT WE WILL STORE THIS OKCODE IN
BDC_OKCODE FIELD TO TRIGGER NEXT OPERATION.
39.)HOW TO GENERATE AND PROCESSING THE SESSION IN THE SAME

MORNING.WHAT WILL U DO?
A.)CORRECT THE ERROR RECORDS(UR FLAT FILE) AND RUN BDC PROGRAM.
IF PROBLEM IS NOT IN SESSION THEN I WILL CHECK THE BDC
PROGRAM.
46.)U ARE GIVEN FD FOR BDC ,HOW WILL U DECIDE WHICH METHOD TO USE?

TRANSACTION ARE WRITTEN
INTO INTERNAL TABLE CREATED BASED ON <BDCMSGCOLL>
58.)WHAT IS DIRECT INPUT?
A.)TO ENHANCE BATCH INPUT PROCEDURE,THE SYSTEM OFFERS DIRECT INPUT
TECHNIQUE
ESPECIALLY FOR TRANSFERRING FOR LARGE AMOUNT OF DATA.IT DOESNT
CREATE SESSIONS
BUT STORES DATA DIRECTLY IN DATABASE.THE DIRECT INPUT PROGRAMS
ARE EXECUTED DIRECTLY IN BACKGROUND.TO MAINTAIN AND START THESE
PROGRAMS USE PROGRAM RBMVSHOW OR TCODE BMV0.

SYSTEM.
GENERATE SAP STRUCTURES:GENERATE STRUCTURES TO INCORPORATE FOR
INCORPORATION
INTO DATA EXPORT PROGRAMS.
DEVELOP TRANSFER PROGRAMS:BDC PROGRAM
CREATE SEQUENTIAL FILE:EXPORT THE DATA TO BE TRANFERRED,TO A
SEQUENTIAL FILE.
CREATE BATCH INPUT PROGRAM:READ DATA TO BE TRANFERRED FROM THE
SEQUENTIAL FILE.
PROCESS BATCH INPUT DATA:PROCESS DATA AND ADD IT TO SAP SYSTEM(CTM
AND SESSION METHOD).
ANALYZE ERRORS:CHECK ALL DATA IS SUCCESSFULLY PROCESSED.
ANALYZE ERROR SESSION:CORRECT AND REPROCESS ERRONEOUS SESSION.

THE TYPE OF VARIABLE
AFTER THE OPTIONS FROM KEYWORD OF CALL TRANSACTION.
DATA:WA_PARAMS TYPE CTU_PARAMS.
WA_PARAMS-DISMODE = X.
WA_PARAMS-UPDMODE = X.
CALL TRANSACTION SM04 USING IT_BDCDATA OPTIONS FROM WA_PARAMS.

63.)DIFF B/W SESSION AND CALL TRANSACTION METHOD.

SESSION METHOD
1.)USING CALL TRANSACTION SYNTAX
2.)ONLY ONE TRANSACTION IS CALLED.
3.)THE ABAP PROGRAM MUST DO THE ERROR HANDLING ITSELF
(CALL TRANSACTION RETURN ERROR MESSAGES INTO INTERNAL TABLE)
4.)BY DEFAULT STANDARD SIZE IS NOT USED.
5.)UPDATE MODE CAN BE CHOSEN.(SYN,ASYN)
6.)U MAY USE RACOMMIT OF CTU_PARAMS
TO NOT STOP THE BDC AT THE END OF COMMIT_WORK
7.)SY-BINPT IS ALWAYS SET TO SPACE USING NOBINPT
OF CTU_PARAMS
8.)AS SY-BINPT IS RESET TO X AFTER COMMIT WORK IT
CAN BE SET TO X AGAIN BY USING NOBIEND OF CTU_PARAMS
OPTION CATTMODE OF CTU_PARAMS CAN BE USED.
9.)ALL DISPLAY MODES CAN BE USED INCLUDING P AND S.
10.)RECORDING(SHDB).
SESSION METHOD:
1.)IT IS SAVED TO DATABASE USING FUNCTION MODULES
BDC_OPEN_GROUP,BDC_INSERT,BDC_CLOSE_GROUP AND
LATER RUN BY SM35 OR PROGRAMS RSBDCSUB,RSBDCBTC.
IT DOES NOT RUN CTU BUT BDC_START_GROUP.

64.)Why SHDB DOENT RECORD SOME SCREENS?
A.)THERE WAS PROBABLY A COMMIT WORK.BY DEFAULT RECORDING STOPS
AFTER COMMIT_WORK
65.)How to copy a recording?
A.)DISPLAY THE RECORDING
THERE IS A BUTTON TO EXPORT TO A FILE ON UR PRESENTATION SERVER.
CREATE A RECORDING WITHOUT TCODE AND WITHOUT STARTING THE
RECORDER,A BUTTON
TO INPUT IS DISPLAYED.
66.)HOW DOES RECORDING WORK?
A.)IT WORKS SIMILLARYLY AS CTM,IT IS SURROUNDED BY KERNEL
SET_TRANS_VAR FOR ACTIVATING AND DEACTIVATING RECORDING AND FM
BDC_RECORD_TRANSACTION.SHDB RECORDS
THE BDC DATA INTO APQI AND APQD TABLES.
LSMW USES SAME TECHNIQUE BUT RECORDS BDC DATA INTO TABLES
SAPDMC/LSGBDC* TABLES.
