23.16 Pass values between sessions

Prerequisites

• Products: Liquid UI WS, Liquid UI Server or Local DLL, Client Software
• Commands: onscreen(), load(), set(), pushbutton()

Purpose

This article guides how to pass the values between sessions as a parameter with the "using" option. To demonstrate this process, we are considering the SAP Easy Access screen as an example, and we’ll guide you through the following steps:

1. Delete the image container on the SAP Easy Access screen
2. Add a toolbar push button to execute the process
3. Add a function to load the script file
4. Add a function to pass the values

User Interface

//Create the file SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.E0100.sjs inside your scripts folder for customizing the SAP Easy Access screen 
//Now, let's add the Liquid UI script to the above file and save it

Customization

1. Delete the image container on the SAP Easy Access screen using the del command.
   
    

   //Deletes the image container on the SAP screen
   del("X[IMAGE_CONTAINER]");
   

    
   
    
2. Add a toolbar push button labeled Pass Values that executes open_new_session process and opens a new session on click. 

   //Creates a push button that opens a new session
   pushbutton([TOOLBAR], "Pass Values", "/oiw31",{"process":open_new_session, "using":{"z_order_type":"PM01" }});
   

    
   
    

   //Create esession.sjs file in your scripts folder
   //Now, add the below Liquid UI script to the above file and save it

3. Load the functions_iw31.sjs file.
   
    

   //loads the file
   load('functions_iw31.sjs'); 
   

    
   

   Note: When you are passing values between sessions, the function should be loaded in the esession file since we are opening a new session.

    

   //Create functions_iw31.sjs file in your scripts folder
   //Now, add the below Liquid UI script to the above file, and save it

4. Add the open_new_session function to pass the values.
   
    

   //Function to pass the values
   function open_new_session(param){
       onscreen 'SAPLCOIH.0100'
       set('F[Order Type]',param.z_order_type);
       enter('?');
   }
   

    

SAP Process

1. Refresh the SAP screen and click the Pass Values toolbar push button. You will observe the values passed to the Order Type input field in a new session, as shown below.
