 This blog aims to show how SAP Calendar Import could be done through Workload Automation. Workload Automation as a product has ready made integration with SAP since the 90’s leveraging the SAP RFC Libraries of SAP using the SAP R/3 Batch Access Method. Now , we would see how we can use this same access method to import Freeday Calendars or Workday Calendars from an SAP R/3 System into Workload Automation. The r3batch access method can be invoked from TWS/methods Directory(in the older versions) or from the TWSDATA/methods directory in the Newer versions . The export can be for both Freeday Calendars as well as Workday Calendars. The below example is an export of a Freeday Calendar referenced by the Factory Calendar ID 02 exported into a text file /tmp/calendar_03.dat with the name HLI : wauser@wa-server:/opt/wa/TWS/methods$ ./r3batch -t RSC -c S4HANAR3BW — ” –calendar_id 02 –year_from 2020 –year_to 2021 –tws_name HLI –getfreedays -filename ‘/tmp/calendar_03.dat’ “ Tue Mar 10 09:48:58 2020 -t RSC represents that the import is for an RFC SAP Calendar. -c CalendarName represents that the Calendar name which is imported from the specific SAP System. –calendar_id XX denotes a 2 Character identifier of the SAP R/3 Calendar to be imported. –year_from XXXX denotes the Start year from which to start exporting the dates. –year_to XXXX denotes the End Year upto which you can export dates. –getfreedays indicates that the export is for Freedays. -filename ‘<PATH>/CalendarFileName’ indicates the name of the file to which export is to be done on the Host OS where you are issuing the command. The exported Calendar can be viewed in the File as shown below : wauser@wa-server:/opt/wa/TWS/methods$ cat /tmp/calendar_03.dat $CALENDAR HLI “” 01/01/2020 01/04/2020 01/05/2020 01/11/2020 01/12/2020 01/18/2020 01/19/2020 01/25/2020 01/26/2020 02/01/2020 02/02/2020 02/08/2020 02/09/2020 02/15/2020 02/16/2020 02/22/2020 02/23/2020 02/29/2020 03/01/2020 03/07/2020 03/08/2020 03/14/2020 03/15/2020 03/21/2020 03/22/2020 03/28/2020 03/29/2020 04/04/2020 04/05/2020 04/10/2020 04/11/2020 04/12/2020 04/13/2020 04/18/2020 04/19/2020 04/25/2020 04/26/2020 05/01/2020 05/02/2020 05/03/2020 05/09/2020 05/10/2020 05/16/2020 05/17/2020 05/21/2020 05/23/2020 05/24/2020 05/30/2020 05/31/2020 06/01/2020 06/06/2020 06/07/2020 06/13/2020 06/14/2020 06/20/2020 06/21/2020 06/27/2020 06/28/2020 07/04/2020 07/05/2020 07/11/2020 07/12/2020 07/18/2020 07/19/2020 07/25/2020 07/26/2020 08/01/2020 08/02/2020 08/08/2020 08/09/2020 08/15/2020 08/16/2020 08/22/2020 08/23/2020 08/29/2020 08/30/2020 09/05/2020 09/06/2020 09/12/2020 09/13/2020 09/19/2020 09/20/2020 09/26/2020 09/27/2020 10/03/2020 10/04/2020 10/10/2020 10/11/2020 10/17/2020 10/18/2020 10/24/2020 10/25/2020 10/31/2020 11/01/2020 11/07/2020 11/08/2020 11/14/2020 11/15/2020 11/21/2020 11/22/2020 11/28/2020 11/29/2020 12/05/2020 12/06/2020 12/12/2020 12/13/2020 12/19/2020 12/20/2020 12/24/2020 12/25/2020 12/26/2020 12/27/2020 12/31/2020 01/01/2021 01/02/2021 01/03/2021 01/09/2021 01/10/2021 01/16/2021 01/17/2021 01/23/2021 01/24/2021 01/30/2021 01/31/2021 02/06/2021 02/07/2021 02/13/2021 02/14/2021 02/20/2021 02/21/2021 02/27/2021 02/28/2021 03/06/2021 03/07/2021 03/13/2021 03/14/2021 03/20/2021 03/21/2021 03/27/2021 03/28/2021 04/02/2021 04/03/2021 04/04/2021 04/05/2021 04/10/2021 04/11/2021 04/17/2021 04/18/2021 04/24/2021 04/25/2021 05/01/2021 05/02/2021 05/08/2021 05/09/2021 05/13/2021 05/15/2021 05/16/2021 05/22/2021 05/23/2021 05/24/2021 05/29/2021 05/30/2021 06/05/2021 06/06/2021 06/12/2021 06/13/2021 06/19/2021 06/20/2021 06/26/2021 06/27/2021 07/03/2021 07/04/2021 07/10/2021 07/11/2021 07/17/2021 07/18/2021 07/24/2021 07/25/2021 07/31/2021 08/01/2021 08/07/2021 08/08/2021 08/14/2021 08/15/2021 08/21/2021 08/22/2021 08/28/2021 08/29/2021 09/04/2021 09/05/2021 09/11/2021 09/12/2021 09/18/2021 09/19/2021 09/25/2021 09/26/2021 10/02/2021 10/03/2021 10/09/2021 10/10/2021 10/16/2021 10/17/2021 10/23/2021 10/24/2021 10/30/2021 10/31/2021 11/06/2021 11/07/2021 11/13/2021 11/14/2021 11/20/2021 11/21/2021 11/27/2021 11/28/2021 12/04/2021 12/05/2021 12/11/2021 12/12/2021 12/18/2021 12/19/2021 12/24/2021 12/25/2021 12/26/2021 12/31/2021 The exported Calendar in the text file can be imported into Workload Automation using a composer add as shown below : HCL Workload Automation(UNIX)/COMPOSER 9.5.0.01 (20190703) Licensed Materials – Property of IBM* and HCL** 5698-WSH (C) Copyright IBM Corp. 1998, 2016 All rights reserved.
