Add on:

Think of Map like a Config

i created a config that i name it as Map

So it become a custom object

custom object syntax is %Config['Filename']% the key is Filename so it will grab the Value from the Config (e.g. ABC)

so hereby my custom key is Dunn so it will go to Map table to grab the value say e.g. ABC

in the past i can use it in VBScript to run as "%Map['Dunn']%" but suddenly it keep failing

and my variable is hitting maximum limitation of 500

so wonder is there any alternative to write a custom object in VBScript

Dim Dunn

Dunn = "%Map['Dunn']%"

don't seem to work...

the row error shown complilation error is this row that i am showing session.findById.....

power automate desktop run vbscript
use custom object key value in the script for SAP
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/subSCREEN_3000_RESIZING_AREA:SAPLBUS_LOCATOR:2000/subSCREEN_1010_RIGHT_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1000/ssubSCREEN_1000_WORKAREA_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1100/ssubSCREEN_1100_MAIN_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1102/tabsGS_SCREEN_1100_TABSTRIP/tabpSCREEN_1100_TAB_03/ssubSCREEN_1100_TABSTRIP_AREA:SAPLBUSS:0028/ssubGENSUB:SAPLBUSS:7023/subA02P01:SAPLCVI_FS_UI_CUSTOMER_CC:0052/ctxtGS_KNB5-MAHNA").text = "%Map['Dunn']%"
Microsoft VBScript compilation error: Unterminated string constant

i cannot add more variable is reaching 500 variable limitation so i need to write key into vbscript

it didn't work even i put a dim

Dim Dunn

Dunn = "%Map['Dunn']%"

You're running into a classic VBScript limitation: it doesn't understand Power Automate Desktop's %VariableName% syntax inside the script itself. That syntax is only parsed by PAD before the script runs.

Can you show what value you have in the %Map['Dunn']%

Also make sure its exactly that variable that is causing the issue. So if you haven't check which row the error is coming from. I have highlighted the example of the row number that is in the script error variable.

To troubleshoot try to hardcode the value in to the VBScript. So if %Map['Dunn']% value is "abc//123" then use it without PAD variable to see if that gives error or not.

Like so:
session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/subSCREEN_3000_RESIZING_AREA:SAPLBUS_LOCATOR:2000/subSCREEN_1010_RIGHT_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1000/ssubSCREEN_1000_WORKAREA_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1100/ssubSCREEN_1100_MAIN_AREA:SAPLBUPA_DIALOG_JOEL:1102/tabsGS_SCREEN_1100_TABSTRIP/tabpSCREEN_1100_TAB_03/ssubSCREEN_1100_TABSTRIP_AREA:SAPLBUSS:0028/ssubGENSUB:SAPLBUSS:7023/subA02P01:SAPLCVI_FS_UI_CUSTOMER_CC:0052/ctxtGS_KNB5-MAHNA").text = "abc//123"

Hi,

Suppose your PAD variable is Dunn (string value).

Create a PAD variable VBScriptCode with this text (note """ is a quote inside VBScript string):

Dim Dunn Dunn = "{DunnValue}" session.findById("wnd[0]/usr/subSCREEN_3000_RESIZING_AREA:SAPLBUS_LOCATOR:2000/..." ).text = Dunn

If I have answered your question, please mark it as the preferred solution ✅ . If you like my response, please give it a Thumbs Up 👍.
Regards,
Riyaz
