Handling Master/Detail Data Entry - morecarl - 11-05-2008
Earlier versions of Mercury products did a nice job of handling master/detail data entry by creating two data sheets - one for the header level information and one with the related detail records with a delimiter row (somethink like .End in the first column) to separate the detail records for different header records.
e.g. Entering in an SAP purchase order with Header Information (requestor info, supplier info, order info) and Line Item Info (part number, quantity, etc).
For a given header row of data - there could be one or more detail lines. The next iteration could have different header info with completely different line item data.
QTP does not seem to handle this type of test data entry for you - does anyone have an example of how they accomplish this type of data entry with QTP.
