Action - SAP: Generate transaction
Skills Deprecation
Effective August 1st 2025, Skills features can no longer be purchased as part of a Celonis Platform license. Celonis continues to maintain Skills (by fixing bugs and ensuring that performance remains strong) but no further feature development will take place.
To continue working with your process improvement and automation use cases, we suggest using our Action Flows, Views, and/or Orchestration Engine features.
The SAP: Generate transaction action allows business users to streamline their workflow by automatically creating prefilled SAP commands. When a user clicks the action within a Signal, a command (including the transaction code and specific parameters like invoice or purchase order numbers) is copied to their clipboard, ready to be pasted directly into the SAP GUI console.
Identify Transaction & Parameters: Determine the specific SAP transaction code (e.g., ME23N) and the technical names of the fields you wish to prefill (e.g., EBELN_LOW).
Data Model Placeholders: Ensure the Signal result table contains the columns/placeholders (e.g., ${EBELN}) necessary to supply the values for the SAP transaction.
Note on Deprecation: As of August 1st, 2025, Skills features are in maintenance mode. For new use cases, Celonis recommends using Action Flows, Views, or the Orchestration Engine.
Select the Action: Within your Skill configuration, navigate to the Action configuration section and choose Action - SAP: Generate transaction.
Define the Command: Enter the SAP command using the syntax:
/n[Transaction Code] [Parameter1]=${Placeholder1}.Handle Multiple Fields: If you need to prefill multiple fields, separate the parameters and placeholders with a single space.
Use Templates: Click Insert Template to select from common pre-configured commands such as 'Change PO' or 'Change SO'.
Save and Test: Save your Skill and click the action button in a Signal to verify the command is copied correctly to your clipboard.
