Create Transaction Code forInfoset Queries Using Area Menu

Applies to:

SAP ECC 6.0. For more information, visit theABAP homepage.

Summary

It is not easy to create transaction code for Infoset queries (standard area / global area) through SE93. Alsoit is not recommended to create T code on the generated program name E.g.:

AQDPA1==========AV_C002=======). This is because if the Infoset Query undergoes any changes,then at least once the Infoset query should be executed through SQ01 transaction in production (GenerateQuery), Otherwise the transaction code will still point to the old generated program.Transaction code will beautomatically created by system through Area Menu (SE43). This system generated transaction code pointsto Infoset query (standard area / global area) and not the generated program.
