Question:
Hi fans,
Is there a way to create a transaction code to just a customize area menu that I have created? I think from Release 3.xx there's such feature in the system but when in 4.6C, it seems not there. Anyone can help as this is quite urgent...
Thanks and Regards,
Andrew
Answer:
You now create them in SE43. They will execute like a transaction code but will show on the session manager screen.

Hi John,
Actually I am trying to create 1 customize (zXX) transaction code to call just my area menu (ZTESTMENU). When I key the transaction code ZXX then I must be able to access to the menu ZTESTMENU, can this be done?
thanks and regards.
Answer:
Look at standard program FICMEN00. This program is called by txn CX00N and runs area menu CX00N. Should be possible to copy and amend slightly for your requirement.
Answer:
However, don't you still need to modify the user's role to include all transactions within the area menu? In other words, I don't think that you save anything as far as role maintenance is concerned. Correct?

hi FourFourTwo,
I have made a copy of the FICMEN00 program to call ZTEST8 (TCODE ZTEST8). Somehow when I was hit error because I don't have a proper screen number. I tried to assign screen number 1000 and it was unacceptable. Which is the proper screen number.
Please advice.
Thanks and regards,
Andrew
Answer:
When you copied FICMEN00, did you hit the check box to copy the screens also? Screen 1000 is part of the original program and would be called from your new txn code.
The other place you need a screen number is in the program itself. When it fills the batch input fields, its sets the program name SAPLBMEN and screen 200 - this is the program behind SE43N. But you don't need to change this at all - this is all copied over from FICMEN00. The *only* line I changed in the copied program was "CHECK SY-TCODE = '<txn code>'".
Hope this helps.
