With Pushbutton, you can call other SAP transactions. Please refer to this link: https://www.guixt.com/knowledge_base/content/12/78/en/508-pushbutton.html

13. Is it possible to deliver parameters (PUT/GET) while calling the screen of Legacy Web System or SAP transactions through hyperlinks?
We would use wscurl in the solution to achieve PUT/GET requests. Hyperlinks can be automated. Read more: https://www.guixt.com/knowledge_base/content/139/101/en/813-wscurl.html

14. Is it possible to implement the function so that the SAP transaction screen and the screen created by Script (Liquid UI for HTML5) are displayed separately on one screen?
You can use multiple sessions (each session opens in a separate browser tab). One tab can show a scripted screen while the other can show a native screen.

15. Can I use "iframe" to insert another webpage or SAP screen into the current screen?
You can embed your iframes using the view command to view the webpage on your SAP screen:

Not another SAP screen. You can use the htmlnode command. Please refer to the below link:

16. Can I send and receive data (as a parameter) between screens created with "iframe"?
NO. This is a cross-domain scripting violation, which may/may not apply to your setup. This limitation can be overcome by using wscurl, using POST requests.
