Is your organisation currently going through a system upgrade, performing routine maintenance on their SAP systems, or even month end/ daily procedures where data upload and migration are an ongoing requirement? Does your organisation find that a large portion of time is spent by valuable resources either developing/ maintaining these programs or even learning how to use complex tools such as CATT?

Perhaps a lot of this activity (or any standard SAP transaction) is currently performed manually thereby blocking resource availability for other valuable tasks?

If, like many other organisations, this is your experience, then I know that you would love to look at ProCapture. This is an amazingly simple yet powerful tool which can be run by anyone in the team and does not require expert ABAP input.

ProCapture is a powerful and simple to use tool for running virtually any SAP transaction any number of times for both functional consultants and ABAP programmers.

ProCapture takes SAP transaction recordings along with data files that you create, and uses them to run SAP transactions. ProCapture can create batch input files, which can be uploaded to SAP and run in the usual way, or (using ProCapture Direct) ProCapture can run the transactions directly - without the need for you to upload any files to SAP and with no batch inputs to be run.

ProCapture allows its database to be re-located onto a network drive to be used by all your ProCapture users:

  • Record yourself running the SAP transaction using SAP's transaction recorder;
  • Import this recording into ProCapture and parameterise;
  • Prepare a data file for subsequent transaction runs, in Excel or elsewhere;
  • Create and execute a ProCapture Direct 'Run' to run your transactions into SAP;
  • Identify and separate out any failures into an errors file which can then be fixed and used as the basis for a new ProCapture Direct Run.

It's that simple. No ABAP programming, or programming of any kind, is required. From concept to completion, the above cycle takes less than 30 minutes!

Results logs, along with the error extraction capability, provide the tools to manage large data conversion projects as well as the day-to-day master data and transactional data fixes that ProCapture excels at.

The most common uses of ProCapture include:

  • Go-live data conversions for any SAP module;
  • Master data correction;
  • Transactional data creation and correction;
  • Test and/or training data preparation.
  • Virtually any SAP Transaction for any purpose

Why not use CATT?

  • Massively simpler, faster to use and much easier to learn.
  • More suitable, better managed, environment for creating and changing large amounts of data.
  • Does not require "changes to repository or cross-client customizing" to be enabled - i.e. can be run in any system (and no transports!)
  • Data loads are much faster to run.
  • Data files can be prepared and batch input files generated, without the need for a connection to an SAP system.
  • Isolation of errors and separation into a data file ready to be fixed and re-run is just not possible with CATT
