Need to get the Entry Point

Hello,

I'm looking for suggestions on how to write a business function where...

- I pass it an Interactive Program Id like "P01012"
- and it returns the "Entry Point" Form Name like "W01012B"

Do you know of any business function that does this or any suggestions of how it can be done?


Thanks in advance,

Hello,
I think you could do a fetch from F9865 table which stores all the forms
names and applications. The Column which you might be interested is ENTRYPT.


Hope this helps.

Hi Kevin,

First of all you are welcome aboard!

As far as I know F9865 "Form Information File" stores this information which generally resides in the Object Librarian data source.

You can filter it for a particular application (e.g. P01012) based on the OBNM field. The ENTRYPT field containes 1 for the entry form of the application. You can pick up the Form ID from the FMNM field (e.g. W01012B) and its description from the MD field (e.g. "Work With Addresses).

If you have any bit experience with writing NER Business Functions then I am sure that you will create yours fast and easy.

Let us know if you need further help in this issue.

Good Form hunting,

Hi Zoltan,

Thanks for the quick reply. That's exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks again,

Hi Kevin,

Just a bit addition.
Take care, not all application has necessarily an entry form. There are some APPL which hasn't any entry form.
