Hi Mukthar,

<b>Difference between LSMW & CATT</b>

The <b>LSMW</b> Workbench is an R/3 based tool that supports you when transferring data from non-SAP systems to SAP. It has more option/functionality to upload data. LSMW is developed as a tool for data migration, mainly Master data i.e. Materials, Vendor, Customer, BOM, Inforecord etc.

<b>CATT</b> comes free with SAP , one can use this for testing as well as for batch input of data to system, CATT allows screen recording and loading data from file. Data mapping/translation/routines etc is not possible with CATT. CATT is developed as an automated test tool and to carry out upload sequence of transactions.

Hi,

any data type can be used for parameters.

when you are refering database table ex: parameters: p_matnr type mara-matnr, then you have declare MARA also in TABLES.

I don't think you can create a parameter of type STRING.

You can't crate a parameter with type F, STRING.

hi,

For data type F and string we can not define parameter.
