Step 4: Upload new Add-ins (Premium Only)

GLSU works with two sets of programming code. The ABAP code (transaction ZGLSU on SAP) controls the functionality of posting and user maintenance. The Visual Basic for Applications code controls the functionality of the spreadsheet. This Visual Basic code is stored in an Excel add-in. Typically, the ABAP and the Visual Basic Add-in are upgraded together. However, there may be times when a new Visual Basic Add-in will be released separately from the ABAP. New spreadsheet functionality could then be acquired without re-transporting a new version of the GLSU ABAP code.

We will provide the application (in the form of a SetupGLSU.exe file) to your Premium User(s). Once the VB code has been received, it will need to be uploaded to your SAP server.

Note: You must perform this upload step for each SAP system/client combination if you wish to deploy the PC components from SAP.

The functionality to upload a new VB Add-in is under the Premium User Functions screen. Select the Upload Add-in button then browse to the location of the SetupGLSU.exe file on your system. Select Open and then confirm the upload.

Your Premium User(s) should then test the new VB code. Once satisfied, they should notify the GLSU users to download the new Add-in.

You are now finished with all of the Premium-User-only steps. Please proceed to the next section, Getting Started for Standard Users, to continue the setup process.
