BODI-1112413 : Unable to import a function module from BW

Hi,
I have SAP BusinessObjects Data Services XI 3.2 (12.2.0) and I am creating an interface with SAP BW.
I need to import in BODI several function modules, that were created in BW, and will be called in BODI jobs.
All imports worked except one, which fails and gives the following error message, without much more details:
Unknown error when importing the function <name= XXX >. (BODI-1112413)
This function module was tested in BW and seems to be working properly.
I cannot find more details related to this error return code. So I am a bit lost where to investigate.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
you can use translate, the ABAP documentation has an example:
DATA text TYPE string.
text = `Careful with that Axe, Eugene`.
TRANSLATE text TO UPPER CASE.
After the conversion, the variable text contains "CAREFUL WITH THAT AXE, EUGENE".
Best regards,
Ralf

  • Problem while importing RFC function module in XI. Please Help!

    Hi Experts,
               When I try to import RFC function module in XI I get the following error:
                 **Ready for import**
    Import started...
    YCOP_VALIDATE_GR:
      + com.sap.aii.ibrep.sbeans.upload.RemoteUploadException: connection closed without message (CM_NO_DATA_RECEIVED)
    Import failed with 1 error
    Any idea why is this error? How to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Hi
       The problem still persists.
       This is what I have done:
        1. My FM is RFC enabled. In the "Attribute" tab of the FM I have selected "Remote-enabled module" and "Start immed".
    2.Activated and tested the FM.
    3.Released the FM. In se37, Function Module -> Release ->Release. 
    4.Tried to import this FM in XI under "RFC". Get the same error.
    I have some questions:
    1. After releasing the FM do I have to activate it?
    2. In release there is "Internal Release" Do I have to use that?
    3.Do I have to do "Internal Release" first then "Release"?
    4.The FM i am trying to import makes a call to another FM. Both the FMs are in the same system. Both are remote enabled. The second FM updates data in custom table. the first FM which I am importing validates the data and then calls the second FM for update. Do I have to import both FMs?
    Please help me!
    Thanks

  • Call an Function Module from BSP page to import an CSV file to internal tab

    Hi Experts,
    I am working on creating a web application in BSP which will call the function module  ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE.
    This function module imports an excel file into an internal table.
    Since this is the first time I am working on BSP I am not sure how to call this FM from event handler tab in BSP page.
    What I could gather from previous posts is that we need to create an attribute which should take the value of the export parameter of the function module.But I am kind of messed up on this.
    Could u guys please help ,I would be extremely grateful.Points will be assigned for sure
    Thanking in anticipation

    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.

  • CNTL_ERROR while calling a function module from Java webdynpro

    I am calling a RFC function module from javawebdynpro app
    which inturn calls a function module performing BDC on CAPP transaction. When I run this from SE37 of the same system or a different system everything works fine. But when called from Java webdynpro app, it raises a CNTL_ERROR exception and creates a short dump.
    Any help on this is highly appreciated

    Good catch, BI Learner. This was exactly it: when assigning the values from SOURCEFIELDS directly to the import/export parameters, you have to make sure that the types are EXACTLY the same, otherwise it will not work (the routine stops with an error when calling the FM, but there is no dump).
    Therefore, to solve my problem, I created the declarations precisely as expected by the FM and assigned the values to these fields:
    DATA:
          SOURCEVAL TYPE  /BIC/OIINVQTY,
          SOURCEUOM TYPE  /BIC/OIUSUOM,
          USITM TYPE  /BIC/OIUSITM,
          TARGETUOM TYPE  /BIC/OIUSUOM,
          CONVERTED_COST TYPE  /BIC/OIINVQTY.
    DATA PRODUCTION_UOM TYPE /BIC/OIUSUOM.
    " get the Production UOM
        SELECT SINGLE I~/BIC/USPRDUOM
          FROM /BIC/PUSITM AS I
          INTO PRODUCTION_UOM
          WHERE I~/BIC/USITM = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USITM AND I~OBJVERS = 'A'.
        IF ( SY-SUBRC = 4 ). " no records found
          "RAISE PARTNO_NOT_FOUND.
          RAISE EXCEPTION TYPE CX_RSROUT_SKIP_RECORD.
        ENDIF.
    " load the parameters
        SOURCEVAL = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USFRZMFC.
        SOURCEUOM = SOURCE_FIELDS-BASE_UOM.
        USITM = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USITM.
    " then you can call the FM
        CALL FUNCTION 'Z_CA_CONVERT_US_COST'
          EXPORTING
            PSOURCEVAL                = SOURCEVAL
            PSOURCEUOM                = SOURCEUOM
            PUSITM                    = USITM
            PTARGETUOM                = PRODUCTION_UOM
          IMPORTING
            PTARGETVAL                = CONVERTED_COST
          EXCEPTIONS
            CONVERSION_NOT_MAINTAINED = 1
            PARTNO_NOT_FOUND          = 2
            OTHERS                    = 3.
    " ... [do the rest]

  • Function modules from the function pool Z_MEREP_G (Message no. MEREP_00530)

    We installed a new system and imported the syncbo definitions to this new system.
    After the import and generation of all T01 SyncBOs we get an error. E.g. for MAM25_016:
    Function modules from the function pool Z_MEREP_GEN_T01_MAM25_016 contain syntax errors
    Message no. MEREP_00530
    After investigation the following syntax error is shown:
    Source code   LZ_MEREP_GEN_T01_MAM25_016U04                  Line     641
    The FORM "MAM25_016_CONV_NAME" does not exist, but there is a FORM with the similar name "MAM25_016_I_CONVERSION".
    "MAM25_016_I_CONVERSION".
    We are already using three systems D -> Q -> P. The export/import of files between these systems work okay. But not with the new system. All are on NW04 SPS 18. In the other systems the form is available.
    Does someone have an idea how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Benjamin de Rijke

    Hello Rahul / Karthick,
    Thanks for the tip, I already reimported these with no effect. Next to this I deleted the function modules for a Z-syncbo (our own developed one). But this didn't help as well.  The MAM-SyncBO function group can not be deleted because the system is not a developement system. We are not allowed to develop things in this environment.
    I have the feeling that it has something to do with the initial setup of this system. All the others were first on SPS15 were we developed the SyncBOs. At a certain time we updated the systems to SPS18 and developed further. No issues so far regarding the import / export of the files from D to Q and P.
    Now we initial installed a new system on SPS18 and on this one the generation failes with the mentioned syntax error.
    Kind regards,
    Benjamin

  • Function Module from BOM

    Hi,
    I need to identify from a give material code that where all it has been used in BOM as component. Is there any function module which I can directly use to get this information. I need material no., Alt BOM, and Plant as output.
    I know it can be achieved through transaction CS15, but I am unable to identify the function module.
    Thanks & regards,

    Hi,
    Use the function module below:
    CS_WHERE_USED_MAT
    You can look at report RCS15001 as example.

  • Calling Function Modules from BSP

    Hi,
    Can we call Remote Function Modules from a BSP page? If yes, can they be called from both Layout and Events and what's the proper way of calling them?
    Any help will be great.

    HI Aurang
    Calling RFC is similar to calling any other Function Module..Only thing is you need to provide the DESTINATION name  of RFC Destination..
    And you can call it from Event like OnInputprocessing...
    inside your BSP Page..
    For Example
          CALL FUNCTION 'ZFI_FUNC_IM_DISPLAY_ASSE_CA_AS' DESTINATION 'Provide the RFC Destination here'
            EXPORTING
              I_PRCAT    = 'CA'
              I_DOCNO    = VAR_DOCNO
            IMPORTING
              E_ASSE_HDR = WA_HDR
              E_TEXT     = VAR_STATUS
            TABLES
              T_ASSE_LIT = T_T900.
    If you are calling from same server..Write destination as NONE
    Cheers:)

  • 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,

    Ya. I can do that. But I don't want to use a class and a method to call that function module. Want to directly call function module from transformation. Is that possible..?

  • Calling Z function module from BSP page

    hi,
      i am calling a z function module from BSP application ROS_SELF_REG ,The z function module is inside a z function group,It does not give any sytnax error..but while running BSP application ,it is going into dump saying that Z function module is not found..Any idea why this is happening???

    Hi,
    Check whether the Z function module is spelled correctly. Also try activating the whole function group and function module in se80 transaction.
    Check whether the BSP application is calling the Z FM from the correct server/client where it is available.

  • Call an ABAP program or a function module from command prompt/python script

    Dear All,
    I want to call a function module/ABAP program from command prompt or a python script.
    Let me explain with an example.
    There is a function module "z_add" that takes  two integers as input parameters and generates their sum.
    the sum is the output parameter.
    Now i want to call this function module from command prompt / python script and pass parameters to this function module.
    In return i must get the sum(i.e. the output of function module).
    I tried using STARTRFC ,was able to call the FM but could not get the return value(output) from FM.
    Can you please provide me the code of such a function module and the method to call it thereby passing parameters and getting the sum.
    Thanks and regards,
