Recognizing the objects in SAP
Hi. We got a query from one of the prospects. They are now trying automating SAP with Pega Robotics Studio 8.0, and have difficulties regarding the following two items:
- The notification dialog that is displayed immediately after logging in the system cannot be interrogated, and the OK button cannot be pushed.
- In the SAP home screen, how can we click, or select, one of the tree menu?
Thanks,
Moritaka Kanai

As for the HookChildProcess, they tried setting it to "true", but the notification dialog cannot be recognized.
As for the tree view, it has been collapsed by default. It seems that we cannot change it to "expanded by default". The partner thinks that tree view itself can be recognized as an object, and can be operated by Robot with using tree-view OOTB methods. Is it correct? Do we have any methods for selecting, or clicking on items in the tree view?

If the TreeView is recognized as that type of control, then it can be interacted with using standard TreeView methods (ClickNode, ExpandNode, etc...).

The partner got back to us, saying that, since the PoC period has already ended, they cannot check SAP version number now. Also, they cannot get the screenshots either...

That is a supported version. I would suggest that you open an SR to get some hands-on assistance with the application as this will likely require physical access to the application to fully assist you. Please record the SR number here for tracking purposes should you decide to open one.

Additional information from the partner:
Almost all the SAP objects are displayed, including dialog (popup) windows, when clicking on the "List Windows" button in the "Windows" and "Virtual Windows" tabs in the Windows Application screen.
* When specifying SAP, we can see "Virtual Windows" tab in addition to the usual tabs: "Match Rules", "Windows", and "Screenshot".
When performing the interrogation, almost all the objects in the SAP "parent" window can be recognized as objects, but not the ones in the dialog (popup) windows.
In the WebEx session, we, at least, need your assistance regarding the following two points:
1. How to interrogate the objects in the dialog (popup) windows.
2. How to apply methods to the tree view. (Currently, we are handling it with SendKeys method.)
