User Interface
//Create this file inside your script folder for customizing the SAP Easy Access screen. SAPLSMTR_NAVIGATION.E0100.sjs
//Now, let's start adding the Liquid UI script to the above file and save it.
- Add the following script to the file and save it.
// Open the file up
openfile("filenames.txt", {"delimiter":";", "output":true});
name1 = "John";
name2 = "Nancy";
name3 = "Alexander";
// Append to the file, set the variables you want to carry over as true
appendfile("filenames.txt", {"name1":true, "name2":true, "name3":true});
// Always close the file after
closefile("filenames.txt");
SAP Process
