How to upload data using CATT?
These are the steps to be followed to upload data through CATT: Creation of the CATT test case & recording the sample data input. Download of the source file template. Modification of the source file. Upload of the data from the source file.
Simply, any one in SAP can use this tool as long as you can access to the tcode. I used CATT atleast in 3 different SAP modules. Typically, in SAP projects, CATT execution is a favorite task for "technical" associates. When the technical resources are either not available immediately or their plate is full with other important tasks, functional associates can simply jump into this activity, since there is no coding or programming involved. This tool has been a great gift from SAP since I am a functional person and could not do coding ! I can remember at least 30 or 40 occassions where I used CATT to get this and that done.
Below find few examples:
1. Created multiple sales orders (excess of 200) in a matter of minutes for the purpose of end user training
2. Created multiple purchase ordes (excess of 200) in a matter of minutes for the purpose of end user training
3. Created Deliveries for the sales orders in a matter of minutes for the purpose of end user training
4. Created config. entires, if the volume of records is large. I remember once I entered 900 records.
5. Extensively used in preparing the transactional data for the purpose of archiving. It worked impeccably.
6. Loading of master data (example: material groups)
