- Use Innowera Web Runner to execute the same process from a Web Browser.
- Use it with Innowera Mobile Server to run SAP on an iPad, IPhone, Android and other smart phones.
- Use it from command prompt using the Process Runner CMD tool.
- Use Innowera SDK to integrate the process with your application or other program, web or device.
Innowera’s unique technology offers you to use SAP in many different ways – the way you want it. The SAP GUI is not the only way to access SAP. With Innowera, you will be able to start with Excel and upgrade to smart phones and tablets when your organization is ready for mobility.

Transaction (TX)
Process Runner allows upload or download of the data between SAP transaction and Excel. Follow three step easy process of Record a transaction, (auto) Map and Run.
Process Runner’s transaction module is the most advanced in the industry and is based on the best implementation practices and experience of over 10 years. With most demanding features implemented, you will be able to do more in less time with Process Runner transaction.

GUI Scripting (GS)
GUI Scripting is used for some of the Enjoy transaction which are otherwise difficult to record and playback with traditional transaction recorder. If transaction has ALV Grid or newer control objects, they also cannot be recorded with traditional transaction recorder. This is the universal problem to ABAPers and all other automation software. Process Runner provides a way to record such transaction with GUI Scripting technology.
While many of these may be covered via an alternate transaction or via BAPI/RFM, GUI Scripting provides a desired backup in case if you must use that transaction.

BAPI/RFM (BA)
Process Runner supports upload and download via Business APIs (BAPI) or Remote Function Modules (RFMs/RFCs). Process Runner is only software in market that supports easy to use interface to BAPI and RFM along with Transaction.
With BAPI and RFM automation capability, you also have a backup plan when transaction based data shuttling does not work.

Data Extractor (DE)
Extract table or view data from SAP into an Excel File. Use a graphical filtering interface to get relevant data quickly, easily and in repeatable fashion.
Data Extractor is the desired extension of SE16, SE17, SQVI, SQ01 (SAP Quickview or Query) and designed to work with large datasets in the fastest and most responsive manner possible.
