How to display photo of employees from PA30 to module pool custom container

[dvkumar17]

Dear All,

This is my first blog in this series.

In this blog post you will learn how to make a basic Module Pool program using custom container to display image of employee from PA30.

Module pool programming is a special type of programming which is used to create custom SAP screens.

We will first upload the image for the employee on the SAP Server using the transaction OAAD. The name of the image we upload is APPLE and is in black and white (the supported formats are .jpg and .png).

Transaction code for creating module pool program is SE80.

Below is the required configuration in the SAP system:-

1. Using SM30 with table T588J click on maintain

       

      2.Add the below highlighted entry if does not exist in your system and save it in your transport

or local object as per your convenience.

      

     3.Upload the image as per the below using transaction OAAD.Click on Store and Assign

 

      

      4.Create as per the provided business object & document type and provide the employee no

and it will pop up to select the photo for the employee

      

 

       

  5. Photo uploaded for the employee No 4180

 

6.Now we are going to get the photo into the module pool custom container.Below are the code

for the same.

PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.

 MODULE STATUS_0100.

PROCESS AFTER INPUT.

 MODULE USER_COMMAND_0100.

Screen 0100:-

In the screen 100 click on highlighted layout to open screen painter

 

In the screen painter as shown below click on Dictionary/Program fields to get the program fields to copy into the screen

Now we have added the employee no(P_PERNR) from the program to screen

We have added the custom container in the name of IMAGE into the screen and also added Text filed as Employee Photo

Create transaction ZPA30 using transaction SE93 as shown below

Finally executing the report using transaction ZPA30 to display the image into custom container

 

By following the steps you will be able to create basic Module Pool Program to display image of the employee. I hope this blog helps you to achieve your business requirement.

As we continue to learn more in this series about Module Pool Programming I will use this blog post to link all the parts of this series.
