Difference between Session method and Call transaction method

Hi,
Difference between Session method and Call transaction method in BDC

Hi,
SESSION method:
Is a standard procedure for transferring large amount of data into the R/3 system.
Data consistency is ensured because batch input uses all thje checks conducted on the normal screen.
It is a two step procedure:
1.  Progarm: creates batch input session. This session is the data file that includes everything to begin the transaction.
2. Process session: Which then actually transfers the data to database table.
In this method an ABAP/4 program reads the external data that is to be entered in the SAP system and stores the data in a session.
A session stores the actions that are required to enter your data using normal SAP transactions i.e. data is transferred to session which inturn transfers data to database table. Session is an intermediate step between internal table and database table.
Data along with it's actions are stored in session. i.e. data for screen fields, to which screen it is passed, the program name behind it and how next screen is processed.
When the program has finished generating the session, u can run the session to execute the SAP transactions in it.
BDC_OPEN_GROUP
          You create the session through program by BDC_OPEN_GROUP function.
1) User Name: User Name.
2) Group       : Name of the session
3) Lock Date : The date when you want to process the session.
4) Keep        : This parameter is passed as 'X' when you want to retain session even       after processing it.                    
BDC_INSERT
     Data is transferred to session by BDC_INSERT.
BDC_CLOSE_GROUP.
     With this function the session will be closed.
CALL TRANSACTION method.
Syntax: call transaction <tr code> using <bdctab>
                             mode <A/N/E>
                             update <S/A>
                             messages into <internal table>.
<tr code>   : transaction code
<bdctab>   : Name of the BDC table
mode: mode in which you execute the transaction.      
A   : all screen mode ( all the screens of the transaction are displayed )
N   : no screen mode ( no screen will be displayed when you execute the transaction )
E   : error screen ( only those screens are displayed where in you have error record )
Update type:
S: synchronous update in which if you change data of one table then all the related tables gets updated and SY_SUBRC is returned for once and all.
A: asynchronous update in which if you change data of one table, the sy-subrc is returned and then updation of other affected tables takes place. So if system fails to update other tables still sy-subrc returned is zero.(that is when first table gets updated ).
messages: if you update database table, operation is either successful or unsuccessful. These messages are stored in internal table. This internal table structure is like BDCMSGCOLL.
       TCODE:  transaction code.
       DYNAME: batch input module name.
       DYNNUMB: batch input dyn no.
       MSGTYP:  batch input message type.
       MSGSPRA: batch input language id of message.
       MSGID:    message id.
       MSGV1….MSGV5: message variables
For each entry which is updated in the database table message is available in BDCMSGCOLL.

  • Difference between Session method and call transaction

    Hi,
    please give me the differences between session method and call transaction,
    briefly explaining synchronus , asynchronus, process, update.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Vijay Kumar
    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as ‘CLASSICAL METHOD’.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.

    Among the two methods call transaction is better compared to session bcoz data transfer is faster in it.
    Differences between call transaction and session.
    Session Method:
    1) Data is not updated in the database table until the session is processed.
    2) No sy-subrc is returned.
    3) Error log is created for error records.
    4) Updation is always synchronous.
    Call Transaction Method:
    1) Immediate updation in the database table.
    2) sy-subrc is returned.
    3)Error need to be handled explicitly.
    4) updation can be synchronous as well as asynchronous.
    2) ya u can use using the N mode no screen.
    3)u can't handle multiple transaction in call transaction.
    4) u can handle multiple transaction in session using the BDC_INSERT fm.
    5)When u go to SM35 u can able to see the error records.
    Which is best?
    That depends on your requirement. Both of them have there advantages.
    According to the situation u can choose any one of these.
    difference between batch input and call transaction in BDC Session method.
    1) synchronous processing.
    2) can tranfer large amount of data.
    3) processing is slower.
    4) error log is created
    5) data is not updated until session is processed.
    Call transaction.
    1) asynchronous processing
    2) can transfer small amount of data
    3) processing is faster.
    4) errors need to be handled explicitly
    5) data is updated automatically
    For session method,these are the function modules to b used.
    BDC_OPEN_GROUP
    BDC_INSERT
    BDC_CLOSE_GROUP
    For call transaction,this is the syntax.
    CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
    MODE A or E or N
    UPDATE A or S
    MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.
    Take a scenario where we need to post documents in FB01 and the input file has say 2000 records (2000 documents, not line items in FB01 but 2000 records)
    In the BDC call transaction method
    We call the transaction FB01 2000 times (once for each record posting) and if the processing fails in record no 3 it can be captured and start with reocord 4.
    Eg: Loop at itab.
    call transaction FB01
    capture errors
    endloop.
    In the session method.
    We do not explicity call the transaction 2000 times, but all the records are appeneded into a session and this session is stored. The processinf of the session is done wwhenever the user wants it to be done. Hence the errors cannot be captured in the program itself

    Batch Input Session method is asynchronous as told by others here. But the advantage of this is that you have all the error messages and the data for each transaction held persistantly. You don't have to code anything for processing them or writing the logs.
    But at the same time, the same feature can be disadvantageous if you need to react to an error or if there are too many errors to manually correct in a session. Since the session are created in the program and its execution is done seperately, you loose the trackability of such transactions.
    With a call transaction, what was a disadvantage above will become an advantage. Call transaction immediately gives you messages back and you can react to it in your program. But the disadvantage is that, if you have several hundreds of transactions to run, running them from within the program can be resource crunching affair. It will hamper the system performance and you cannot really distribute the load. Of course, you have some mechanisms with which you can overcome this, but you will have to code for it. Also, storing the messages and storing the errored transaction data etc will have to be handled by you in the program. Whereas, in batch input session, your program's job is to just create the session, after that everything is standard SAP system's responsibility.
    Ideally, you should do a call transaction if the resources are not a problem and if it fails, put the errored transaction into a session.
    You can decide based on the data volume that your BDC is processing. If data volume is high go for session else call transaction will do.The call transaction updates will be instantaneous where as session needs to be processed explictly after creation.
    Session Method
    1) Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
    2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
    3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
    4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
    5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
    6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
    in bdc we use FM ...
    bdc_open_group " for creating Session
    bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
    bdc_close_group " for closing Session
    Call Transaction
    1) Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
    2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
    3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
    we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
    4) it doesn't support background processing.
    5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
    this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
    syntax:
    Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
    mode <A/N/E>
    update <L/A/S>
    messages into BDCMSGCOLL.
    BDC:
    Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the process of transferring data from one SAP System to another SAP system or from a non-SAP system to SAP System.
    Features :
    BDC is an automatic procedure.
    This method is used to transfer large amount of data that is available in electronic medium.
    BDC can be used primarily when installing the SAP system and when transferring data from a legacy system (external system).
    BDC uses normal transaction codes to transfer data.
    Types of BDC :
    CLASSICAL BATCH INPUT (Session Method)
    CALL TRANSACTION
    BATCH INPUT METHOD:
    This method is also called as ‘CLASSICAL METHOD’.
    Features:
    Asynchronous processing.
    Synchronous Processing in database update.
    Transfer data for more than one transaction.
    Batch input processing log will be generated.
    During processing, no transaction is started until the previous transaction has been written to the database.
    CALL TRANSACTION METHOD :
    This is another method to transfer data from the legacy system.
    Features:
    Synchronous processing. The system performs a database commit immediately before and after the CALL TRANSACTION USING statement.
    Updating the database can be either synchronous or asynchronous. The program specifies the update type.
    Transfer data for a single transaction.
    Transfers data for a sequence of dialog screens.
    No batch input processing log is generated.

  • Difference between Session Facade and Business Delegate design patterns

    Can someone tell me the differences between Session Facade and Business Delegate design patterns

    1. Session Facade decouples client code from Entity beans introducing session bean as a middle layer while Business Delegate decouples client code from EJB layer ( Session beans).
    2. SF reduces network overhead while BD reduces maintenance overhead.
    3. In SF any change in Session bean would make client code change.
    While in DB client is totally separate from Session bean because BD layer insulate client from Session beans(EJB layer).
    3. In only SF scenario, Client coder has to know about EJB programming but BD pattern no EJB specialization needed.
    4.SF emphasizes on separation of Verb, Noun scenario while BD emphasizes on separation of client(presentable) and EJB layer.
    Anybody pls suggest more differences ?

  • Difference between Session Facade and Business Delegate??

    Hello,
    I am currently working on design patterns and I am confused what the difference is between the Session Facade and Business Delegate pattern. They look identical.
    What's the difference?
    Balteo.

    We implement Business Delegators (BD) as follows:
    1. The client always talks to the BD.
    2. The BD then talks to either our Session Facade, Session EJB, or Java Class, etc, etc directly.
    This allows the client end code to never change whilst allowing our BD to swap between different providers of the service we require.
    It's the good 'ole "layer of indirection" thingy.

  • Difference between Receipts form and Receiving Transactions form

    Hi People,
    I have a doubt about two dorms. Firts I have created an Inter-Oranization Transfer generating the Shimpment num 1111.
    Then using Inventory Responsibility, I navigate to Transactions -> Receiving -> Receipts and find it withou any issue.
    But when I navigate to Transactions -> Receiving -> Receiving Transactiond, I am not able to find it. Why?
    Which is the difference between thos forms? Why I can see the transaction in one form but not in another?
    Thanks,
    Facundo.

    hi
    receiving can be configured to be a two-step process: first receive it in receving bay (using receipts form) and then deliverying to some storage area within warehouse (using receiving transaction form).
    on shipping network form, we can specify if we want to do receiving as 1-step (direct routing) or as 2-step (standard routing) or 3-step (inspection routing).
    in your case, there r two options:
    1. its a direct routing, so receiving transaction has already taken place...see receiving transaction summary form..
    2. receiving txn has gone to error status or is pending for processing. use receiving transaction status form to review if it is in pending/ error status.
    in case of pending...launch receiving transaction processor conc program....
    please check and set profile RCV: processing mode appropriately.
    thanks,
    hrishi

  • Difference between session facade and business delegate patterns

    Hi,
    How the session facade and business delegate patterns differ from each other, as both of them have similar and almost same forces to be addressed.
    Please address.
    Satya.

    BTW, in J2EE Core patterns :
    When the Business Delegate is udes with a Session Facade, typically there is a one-to-one relationship between the two. This one-to-one relationship exists because logic that might have been encapsulated in a Business Delegate relating to its interaction with multiple business services (creating a one-to-many relationship) will often be factored back into a Session Facade.[I/]

    Hello,
    An Online # is for your contacts to call you. (You can't make calls from it).
    Call forwarding is simply forwarding a received call to another phone of your choice.
    To receive calls from your contacts you will need an Online #.

  • Session method and call transaction methos which one is the sap recomonded

    hi
    PLease give me the answer to these questions.
    session method and call transaction methos which one is the sap recomonded why .
    2) if we want to maintain BDC program in all the systems.wt to d0

    Hi Revethi,
    Here is the difference between the Session and Call Transaction method.
         Session
    Session method supports both small amount of data aswell as large amount of data
    2) data processing is asynchronus and data updation is synchronus.
    3) it process multiple apllication while perfomaning validations.
    4) in session method data will be updated in data base only after processing session only.
    5) system provide by default logfile for handling error records.
    6) it supports both foreground aswell as background process
    in bdc we use FM ... bdc_open_group " for creating Session
    bdc_insert " adding transaction and bdcdata table for updating database
    bdc_close_group " for closing Session
          Call Transaction
    Call transaction exclusively for small amout of data
    2) it supports only one apllication while perfoming validations
    3) there is no default logfile, We can explicitly provide logic for creating logfile for handling error records.
    we can create logfile by using structure....BDCMSGCOLL
    4) it doesn't support background processing.
    5) data processing is synchronous and Data updation is Synchronous( default), in
    this method also supports daya updation in asynchronus process also.
    Syntax:
    Call transaction <transaction-name> using BDCDATA
    mode <A/N/E> update <L/A/S>
    messages into BDCMSGCOLL.

  • Difference between Java Method and a java function

    what is the difference between a method in java and a function
    in java ?
    ( i have seen that main() is called a function but the others
    are method )
    is it for main can only be called by JVM ?
    please help if u can...

    Though Ceci isn't a programmer, his answer is closer: strictly speaking, Java has no functions.
    The Java Language Specification, 2nd Ed, mentions the word "function" thrice: in the sense "to function as something", when talking about a C function, and in the index as "mathematical function". (Get the spec under "documentation" on the left hand side of your screen.)
    So, officially, no functions.
    Informally, many people use "function" and "method" as synonyms. You may even find some that calls a void-returning method "procedure" and value methods "function" (perhaps Pascal background?). And a Lisp programmer might call Runnable.run() a "thunk", but he'd just be pulling your leg.

Maybe you are looking for
