ABAP Function Module table into crystal

Hello,
I created a ABAP Function Module with one export parameter(a structure), and another table paramemter(with table type of identical to a table in sap).
I wrote a simple select statement and dumped the data into the internal table which I am passing it as table parameter.
However when I access that function module from crystal, I only see export parameter(structure) with one record, BUT I DO NOT SEE the internal table(table parameter) AT ALL.
I tried various ways of passing,but crystal doesn't seem to be recognizing the table parameter at all.
I pulled the f_union shich shows up in crystal,but it is not returning any values at all.
How do I pull in a function module's table parameter into crystal?
Thanks
Kumar

Please re-post if this is still an issue to the Business Objects Integration Kits - SAP Forum or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly

Crystal Reports for VS2010 using a custom SAP ABAP function module data source

I recently worked with Crystal Reports 2011 and was able to connect and retrieve data from our R/3 system via an ABAP function module. While researching other features, I found this version that can be installed into Visual Studio 2010. The parameters are not very user friendly in Crystal Reports so I was hoping to create a custom dialog to collect my report parameters.
Does anyone know if I were to install Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010, would I be able to design a front-end selection screen in a Visual Basic form and then pass the input to through the Crystal Reports connection to my ABAP function module to retrieve the data filtered on the back-end by the selection screen parameters and return the results to be reported in the Crystal Reports output?
I am using Visual Studio 2010 Professional Visual Basic with the .NET Framework 4.0 on 32-bit Windows 7. I was able to connect to our R/3 system in Crystal Reports 2011, so if I were to install Crystal Reports for VS2010, would there be a similar way of connecting to SAP?
Any assistance or direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan

Hello Bryan
I don't know for sure, but I doubt this will work in CRVS2010. Only hope is that the utility available for download in this KBA will point you in the right direction.

Using ABAP Function Modules

ABAP Function Modules are available to Crystal Reports through the SAP Integration Kit. The look like tables when listing them in the Database Expert.
How do you use them? Specifically, I am trying to use READ_TEXT to retrieve into a report the contents of STXL.
Thanks!
Luis

Connect the following fields in the database expert:
STXL
TDOBJECT
TDNAME
TDID
TDSPRAS
TO FOLLOWING CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF READ_TEXT
I_OBJECT
I_NAME
I_ID
I_LANGUAGE
LATER USE "T_LINES.TDLINE[Text Line]" as output.

Help on ABAP Function Module (Unit 1)

Hello ABAP Experts,
I need help with the below mentioned lesson plan. I donot have source code for The ABAP Function Module - BC401_GET_SEP_STRING. For the Source Code Solution in the Lesson Plan to work, I need the source code for the above mentioned function module.
The Lesson Plan with Solution is posted below:
Exercise 1
Unit: Data Types and Data Objects in Detail
Topic: Defining Data Types and Data Objects
Basic Statements
Processing Character Strings
At the conclusion of these exercises, you will be able to:
u2022     Define structure types locally in the program
u2022     Define elementary and complex data objects
u2022     Split strings
u2022     Use conversion rules
u2022     Display the contents of data objects in lists
In this exercise, you will use a template to create a program that receives a single data record from the database table SFLIGHT in form of a character string. The program will split the this character string into its components and display it formatted in a list.
Because the focus of this exercise is not on the transfer of data as a character string, we will use a function module that will provide us with the required database. This will simulate actual cases, such as data transfer from an external system.
Program: ZBC401_##_SPLIT_STRING
Template: SAPBC401_DTOT_SPLIT_STRING
Model solution: SAPBC401_DTOS_SPLIT_STRING
is your two-digit group number
1-1 Copy the program, SAPBC401_DTOT_SPLIT_STRING and give it the new name ZBC401_##_SPLIT_STRING.
1-2 Familiarize yourself with the main body of the program. Pay special attention to the content of the data object datastring after the function module call. Use the Debugger to do this, and/or display the character string in a list. (The function module itself is here seen as a black box. For this exercise, it is not necessary to understand its construction.)
1-3 To be able to split the character string into its components you must first remove the ## characters. Remove the two leading separators from the character string first. Then copy the initial part up to the closing separators to the auxiliary variable set_string. For this, set_string has to be defined appropriately.
1-4 Now use the separators to split the contents of the auxiliary variable set_string into the structure wa_flight_c. The latter is typed with the local program structure type st_flight_c. You still have to comment out the components of this structure type and assign them an appropriate type.
1-5 As a test, display the fields of the structure, wa_flight_c in a list.
1-6 In the list displayed in exercise 1-5, you should have observed that some of the fields were displayed without formatting u2013 for example, the PRICE field. Your next step is to change this.
To do this, convert the data you have extracted by copying it to data objects with suitable types. Also, not all components of wa_flight_c are to be displayed.
For this purpose, a structure wa_flight has already been defined. It is typed with the structure type st_flight. You must comment out the components of st_flight and find appropriate types for these components for the formatting. Then copy the identically-named components of the character-type structure wa_flight_c to the fields of the structure wa_flight.
Display the contents of the structure wa_flight in a list. Use the appropriate formatting options for the WRITE statement for the fldate and price components.

Ways to call a ABAP Function module or ABAP Program from WAD

Hi,
Is there any way to execute an ABAP function module or program from the WAD?
Thanks

what you could do is create a bsp application which receives workbook id as url parameter.
from WAD create a link to this BSP page and pass the wbook id in the url.
within the BSP you can then read the excel as binary string like below
select * from rsrwbstore into table wb_tab
where workbookid = wbid.
you can then set wb_tab-clustd as the response of the page with mime type to 'application/vnd.ms-excel'. which will open as excel

Call ABAP function module from script?

Hi,
I have an ABAP function module, which works fine when I call it in a transformation.
Since I don't need to execute this function for each record but rather for each file I process, I would like to move the call from the DataFlow to a script in the WorkFlow. When I click on the 'functions' button the ABAP FM is available in my SAP Datastore, so I drag and drop it into my script. I also make sure to populate all required variables.
There are no error messages or warning when I check my job definition.
When I execute it, I get the following RFC error:
Function call <xxx ( abcd ) > failed, due to error <150413>: <RFC CallReceive exception <FUNCTION_NOT_FOUND>.>.
Is it just not possible to call an RFC enabled function module in SAP from a script or am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks,
Jan.

Could you please let me know how I can call an abap function module from a transformation? (from abap xslt program). I know how we can call methods of a class from the transformations, but no idea how we can call function modules. Any suggestions or a sample code snippet towards this will be very useful for me.
Thanks,
Shashi.

Passing an XML file from WebDynpro app to ABAP function module

Hi all,
I'm stuck with a problem, and am hoping one of you could let me know how to proceed:
I need to pass an XML file (or at least the entire content of the XML) from my WebDynpro application to a backend ABAP function module. What I tried was this:
In my WebDynpro app, I read the XML and convert the content into one long string (using java.io.FileReader and java.io.BufferedReader). In my ABAP function module I created an import parameter of type String. I then imported the ABAP Function module into my WebDynpro app as a model. I then tried to pass the XML string to the ABAP module. What happens is this:
If the size of the string (XML) happens to be less than 255 characters, then it works. That is, the string is passed to the ABAP function module and I can see the contents. However, if the XML string happens to be greater than 255 characters, then it does not work. The string at the ABAP side is empty. Surprisingly, the ABAP module does not throw an error either. It just displays an empty string.
Could you please tell me what the problem is?
Thanks & Regards,
Biju

Hi Biju ,
Welcome to SDN.
If the import parameter is defined as type string it should work, however did you check whether your application pass it properly?
I have applications using strings as import parameters working fine. (webapplications (BSP) to RFC)

Issue in creating web service for a ABAP Function Module

Hi,
now i'm learning how to create web service for a ABAP Function Module. I used the following steps.
1. select the Function Module, named "zws_test".
2. in the context menu, select "create->proxy object". so we enter into wizard.
3. in the wizard, press the radio button "Service Provider".
4. in the next page, press the radio button "Existing ABAP Objects(Inside Out)".
5. In the next page, Enter the "zws_test_prvider" as Service Definition and select "Function Module" as Endpoint Type.
6. in the next page, enter "zws_test" as Function Module and mark the "Mapping der Namen" button
7. in the next page,select "PRF_DT_IF_SEC_LOW" as Profile and mark "Deploy Service".
8. Save in the local package.
9. then it will pop up a window with title "WSDL Source". i selected "URL/HTTP Destination" and press "OK".
10.in the next page, i enter the URL as "http://hostname:portnumber/", and press "OK".
11. then it will pop up a window with title "Display logs". A record with error message "HTTP error(return code 404, message "Not found")" appears.
12. i press "ok" and a service provider with name "zws_test_prvider" appears in my local package.
13. i use "zws_test_prvider"'s URL to create a service consumer "ZCO_WS_TEST_CONSUMER" and logic portal "LP1".
14. But when i test my service consumer "ZCO_WS_TEST_CONSUMER", it will throw an exception "cx_ai_system_fault" with errortext "SOAP:14 Unexpected element -el=definitions ns=http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/".
15. I use t-code SM59 to test connection and get the following info.
      Status HTTP Response     200
      Status Text                      OK
      Duration Test Call             328 ms.
who can give me the reasons about item 11 and 14, and explain me how to create service provider and service consumer for a Function Module.
Thanks in advance

Calling an ABAP function module

Hi friends,
I am developing an application in EP6 SP2 using JSPDynPage from which, want to call an ABAP function module that returns table and show the values from this table in this application.
I went thru various blogs and APIs. I am confused between SAP JCO, JCO client service and connector framework. Do u have any documentation on how to connect to R3 systems and call a function module, retrieve results etc.
Regards,
Nilz

JCo is the point to start. This gives you low level access to all rfc functions. Everything else (accept BSP and Web dynpro) are just layers of encapsulation around the low level JCo function.
The steps are always like this:
call the sap system for rfc login
prepare data areas and call in java
call the rfc in the R/3 system
handle exceptions
logoff and free ressource
continue with data obtained in R/3
There is a lot of material around jco. One book that is fairly ok is :
SAP Interface Programming
A comprehensive reference for RFC, BAPI, and JCo programming
J. Meiners, W. Nüßer
SAP PRESS ISBN 1-59229-034-5

Call an ABAP Function module on click of Button in BSP page

Hello ,
i would like to run a ABAP function module on click of a button in BSP page.
or in other words i want a Funtion module ex: 'test1' to run after clicking this button ex: 'button1'
and how to pass the values for a function module after clicking the button.
i an new to bsp application .
Can anyone help me on this .

Hi Shalaxy,
Triggering a URL to WDJ:
I suppose the URL of WDJ app. is also a portal URL. I assume that from a BSP application inside portal you need to trigger the WDJ url.
But the catch is that you cannot hotcode this URL, since it varies for a development, quality and production systems(diff. portal environments).
To solve this issue, ABAP provides a system variable named sy-sysid, which says want system your ABAP system is, normally a development R/3 system will be associated to development portal system and quality R/3 to quality portal ans so forth.
So you could have a internal table/db table/ variable for dev, quality or prod portal urls and from the bsp on button click based on the value in the sy-sysid you can trigger the url accordingly.
Creating a URL in WDJ
The above is about triggering a WDJ from BSP. But if you dynamically want to create a link in WDJ on a button click, then apparently you could not do that from BSP, since the applications are different. All you could do is to pass some URL parameters to WDJ application from BSP app. Then based on the URL parameters the WDJ application has to dynamically create a link and add it to its application.
Hope it helps.

Maheswaran

ABAP Function Module generator

Hi,
I wonder if there is a ABAP Function Module generator for inbound and outbound adapter data. Can I generate a function module in XI to trigger a adapter.
regards,
Richard

Hi,
There is no tool to "generate" RFCs. You will have to use SE37 to create the RFCs as always.
For outbound RFC, you will need only to define the interfaces, e.g. IMPORT, EXPORT, TABLES. No ABAP code is required. Then, just populate the parameters and send to XI.
For inbound RFC, you can develop the RFC to do whatever it needs to do in ABAP.
In the IR of XI, you can import the RFC's meta data.
Regards,
Bill

As you can see, the tables shown by these function modules have lots of columns but there is not much description (In fact, nothing at all) about them. If anybody has used these function modules before can you please point me to a location where I can find documentation for these. I have already searched on SAP help portal but it doesn't show any information about this. I tried with TCODE SM50 on my SAP GUI but it doesn't give precise information. Please suggest on how or where I can find description for these tables.
Many Thanks in advance!!!
- John

Hi John!
There is no documentation - you can't expect, that <i>every</i> bit is documented in SAP.
If you are interested in something special, ask this - but I doubt that you will find someone, who writes a FM documentation based on his own experience.
The most important fields you can guess by the name or comparing with SM50 / SM66.

Christian
