[ENG] SAP GUI Scripting: SAP automation with Microsoft Excel

Description

SAP GUI Scripting is an automation interface that allows end users to automate repetitive tasks by recording and executing them through a macro-like script. It is a simple tool for robotic process automation (RPA). The interface has existed since SAP FrontEnd version 6.20 and comes standard at no additional cost. SAP GUI Scripting uses the methods and properties of individual objects in the SAP GUI to perform actions and/or read data. All tasks that a user can perform manually can be automated with SAP GUI Scripting. SAP GUI Scripting is an example of the integration between SAP and Microsoft Office.

This course teaches you how to integrate your SAP GUI script with Microsoft Excel using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). For this integration you will need a free Microsoft Excel add-in (SAP GUI Scripting API). Automation via SAP GUI Scripting is fairly simple, inexpensive and straightforward. Therefore, there are almost no corporate hurdles in introducing this technology. This is one core advantage over other solutions (ABAP program, LSMW, etc.).

SAP GUI Scripting can save a considerable amount of time for many business processes. The time saved can then be used for more demanding tasks. The errors avoided by automation save follow-up costs and remediation time.
