Call a function module inside of another function module

Has anyone ever called a function module inside of a remote enabled function module? Maybe this needs to be accomplished inside of an include. Just wondering.
Thanks!

Hi
No u can't do it because the RE_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTH is not remote function module.
If you need to call it u should insert it in a RFC, so u should create in R/3 a new RFC calling both fms: RE_LAST_DAY_OF_MONTH and the remote one.
And so call this new rfc instead of the other one.

Unable to call a procedure from inside a another procedure

Dear members
I am trying to call a procedure from inside an another procedure.Both the procedures are present within the same package.I am trying to call the second procedure just before the end of the first procedure.Both the procedures are compiling fine but the tables are not getting populated inside the second procedure.Also the DBMS_OUTPUT statements present in second procedures are not getting displayed.(I feel the second procedured is not getting called).
The package specification is as follows:

Is it possible to call a adobe form inside a function module?

Hi gurus,
i am trying to generate the pdf data source inside a custom function module,
the function module will call the FUNCTION 'FP_JOB_OPEN' , then call the function module of the pdf interface. then get the pdf data back and return.
but at run time i got the error message:
FPRUNX101, the job already started.
then the program stopped.
i checked the service market place, there is a note for that:858325 Message "Job already started" when you display PDF forms .
according to the notes,it seems that it's only possible to call the pdf generated function module in a program.
my question is , is there a way to call that in a funciton module?
best regards.
Jun
the note states that:
Reason and Prerequisites
At runtime, a PDF-based form is called using a generated function module. If you use the new interface, it is necessary to set the function modules FP_JOB_OPEN and FP_JOB_CLOSE as control structures with one or several generated function modules. In order for the single test from Transaction SFP to work simultaneously, however, the system checks for the test environment of Transaction SE37 (in which the test ultimately runs) in the single test. In this case, the function modules FP_JOB_OPEN or FP_JOB_CLOSE are called automatically.
If you then test a function module that calls a PDF based form and therefore calls the function module FP_JOB_OPEN itself, this leads to the error message mentioned above.
Solution
The test should be carried out using a program that in turn calls the function module to be tested.

sorry, i found out the reason.
the fm can not test direct in se37, it should be wrapped by a program.

Ensure the module is loaded before calling the method in
particular if you are calling it at the initialization of your
app.

Calling a function inside another class

I have the following two classes and can't seem to figure to figure out how to call a function in the top one from the bottom one. The top one get instantiated on the root timeline. The bottom one gets instantiated from the top one. How do I call functions between the classes. Also, what if I had another call instantiated in top one and wanted to call a function in the bottom class from the second class?
Thanks a lot for any help!!!

Although I agree that utilizing events the way you attempted in your suggestion is better for at least a reason of eliminating dependency on parent, still you code doesn't not accomplish what Brian needs.
Merely adding event listener to grid instance does nothing - there is no mechanism in the code that invokes callTGMFunction - thus event will not be dispatched. So, either callTGMFunction should be called on the instance (why use events - not direct call - in this case?), or grid instance needs to dispatch this event based on some internal logic ofCreateGrid AFTER it is instantiated - perhaps when it is either added to stage or added to display list via Event.ADDED. Without such a mechanism, how is it a superior correct way OOP?
Also, in your code in ThumbGridMain class testFunc is missing parameter that it expects - Event.
Am I missing something?
I guess the code may be (it still looks more cumbersome and less elegant than direct function call):
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     import flash.events.Event;
     public class ThumbGridMain extends MovieClip
         private var grid:CreateGrid;
         public function ThumbGridMain():void
             grid = new CreateGrid();
             grid.addEventListener("callTGMFunction", testFunc);
             addChild(grid);
        // to call a CreateGrid function named cgFunction()
         public function callCG(){
             grid.cgFunction();
         public function testFunc(e:Event):void
             trace("testFunc was called");
package
     import flash.display.MovieClip;
     import flash.events.Event;
     import flash.events.Event;
     public class CreateGrid extends MovieClip
         public function CreateGrid():void
             if (stage) init();
             else addEventListener(Event.ADDED, callTGMFunction);
         // to call a TGM function
         public function callTGMFunction(e:Event = null):void
           // I forgot this one
            removeEventListener(Event.ADDED, callTGMFunction);
            this.dispatchEvent(new Event("callTGMFunction"));
        public function cgFunction(){
             trace("cg function called");
I think this is a case of personal preference.
With that said, it is definitely better if instance doesn't rely on the object it is instnatiated by - so, in this case, either parent should listen to event or call a function directly.

Calling a function module on another server

Dear all,
I have a function module on a test server which accesses a database table on it. I need to call that function module from a development server. Both servers are AS ABAP. I believe I need RFC, but how do I specify the test server address from the development server function call?
Thanks for your help,
Philon

You need to call the Function module as a RFC FM.
The function module needs to be set as such.
In its atributes, it needs to be Remote-enabled function module.
To call it, proceed as follows:
CALL FUNCTION <FUNCTION MODULE> ON <DESTINATION>.
<DESTINATION> needs to be a predefined RFC destination. (See transaction SM59)
CALL FUNCTION func DESTINATION dest parameter_list.
Effect
Synchronous call of a remote-enabled function module specified in func using the RFC interface. Use addition DESTINATION to specify the destination in dest. For func and dest, character-type data objects are expected. After terminating the remotely called function, the calling program is continued after CALL FUNCTION.
Note
If the content of dest is equal to the constant space, then the addition DESTINATION is ignored and a normal call CALL FUNCTION func is executed.

Calling a function that's inside another function

function test1():void
function test2():void {..}
How do I call test2 function (outside test1 function)? Is it possible?

Hi,
yes it is possible.
Here is the code helps u
function foo():Function
var x:int = 40;
function rectArea(y:int):int // function closure defined
return x * y
return rectArea;
var myProduct:Function = foo();
var s = myProduct(4);
trace(s);

Can't call a function inside another function

Hello,
i have the following function :
FUNCTION test_day_week (P_DATE DATE)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
BEGIN
RETURN TO_CHAR(P_DATE ,'DAY');
END;
--it returns the day name of a given date
FUNCTION TEST_DAY_NUMBER (P_DAY_NAME VARCHAR2)
RETURN NUMBER IS
     V_RESULT NUMBER;
     V_RETURN_DAY VARCHAR2(30);
     P_DATE DATE;
BEGIN
V_RETURN_DAY := test_day_week (P_DATE );
MESSAGE('V_RETURN_DAY'|| V_RETURN_DAY);
MESSAGE('V_RETURN_DAY'|| V_RETURN_DAY);
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'MONDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=1;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'TUSEDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=2;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'WENDSDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=3;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'THURSDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=4;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'FRIDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=5;
     END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'SATURDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=6;
END IF ;
IF V_RETURN_DAY = 'SUNDAY' THEN V_RESULT :=7;
     END IF ;
RETURN V_RESULT;
END;
--The above function returnds the day name in numbers
The proble is that when i call test_day_week function it returns no value even it is tested separatly and works fine don't know where is my problem :
1-number of argrments in function[b] TEST_DAY_NUMBER
?? and so ..!
Regards,
Abdetu..

You could also cut the whole thing down to a simple function... (assuming you have a need to customise your start of week rather than use built in date functionality)

How to call a function module in VC

Hi,
I want to call a function module for an addition formula which shall calculate and infer the value.
eg. quantities of 5 different characteristics (of numeric data) is to be summed up and inferred against the 6th characteristic.
I want to know the detailed process to create a Variant Function and use it in a dependency.
Request to please advise the steps, type of dependency and its code.
Regards,
Rajesh Mohapatra

Dear Rajesh,
I also wanted to learn how to do that, your post motivated me to use a bit of freetime and investigate on the subject. I finally made my function work, so here are the tips.
The example is very simple, just a variant function with two inputs and which multiplies inside the input values and transfer that result to the output ( 3 x 4 => 12 ).
Deducting how to add five values or any other logic would be easier starting from there.
STEP 1: Create Variant Class for the product. I imagine you already have that. In my case its name is ZVC_CLASS, you have already a material assigned to the class, a configuration profile, etc....
STEP 2: Create Three Characteristics Z_NUM_CH_1,Z_NUM_CH_2,Z_NUM_CH_3 the three of numeric type
STEP 3: Assign characteristics from step 2 into class ZVC_CLASS
STEP 4: Create the function module with the code given below. I put the name ZVC_FUN_TEST
FUNCTION ZVC_FUN_TEST.

STEP 5: Activate the function module for Variant Configuration in transaction CU65, put there your function module, release int and in button characteristics write Z_NUM_CH_1,Z_NUM_CH_2,Z_NUM_CH_3. Flag the first two lines as they are inputs.
STEP 6: Create a Dependency ZVC_PROC_TEST of type Procedure to call the function with this code:
000010 Function ZVC_FUN_TEST
000020 (Z_NUM_CH_1 = $root.Z_NUM_CH_1,
000030 Z_NUM_CH_2 = $root.Z_NUM_CH_2,
000040 Z_NUM_CH_3 = $self.Z_NUM_CH_3)
STEP 7: Lets say I want to calculate the multiplication only upon the selection of another characteristic "Calculate" YES/NO. For this I create a characteristic in CT04 Z_CALCULATE type CHAR 1 with possible values Y or N. For the value Y y add the procedure ZVC_PROC_TEST so that formula only activates on Y.
STEP 8: Add characteristic Z_CALCULATE to class ZVC_CLASS
STEP 9: VA01, it should work

Call RFC Function Module in R/3 via XI during Mapping

Hi,
I have an XI scenario where I have to fill the IDoc ADRMAS03 in XI and send it to R/3. Unfortunately the sender system does not provide the required address number (ADRNR) for the Business Partner, only the Business Partner number. Therefore I want to call a Function Module in R/3 during the mapping in order to get the ADRNR.
Does anybody know which RFC-Function Module I can call in R/3 4.6c providing the Busness Partner number in order to get the ADRNR?
Thanks.
Alex

Hi,
no need for RFC lookup it's better to do as he wants
(inside an exit in R3) - just my point of view
BTW
don't use a FM just find a table with both values
and create a select statement youself

Can we call a function module from a structure?

Hi everyone,
I have a requirement to send an idoc. I have to populate a segment with signing authority . I have to create a custom table for that and call the function module. How do i do that ?
Thanks in advance,
Venkat

Hi!
When you have an outbound IDOC, then there is a function module to create the IDOC and fill the segments. Often the function name follows the form MASTERIDOC_CREATE_NNN with NNN = IDOC-name.
Inside this function module should be an user exit to add some own coding.

Christian

Can I call a function in another package?

Dear all,
Can I call a function in another package?
Say I have package A, and package B.
Is it possible for me to call a function in inside package A, within a function inside package B?
If yes, what's the syntax.
Thanks in advance!

The variable in the calling package that will receive the value of the function in the other package needs to be defined based on that type in the other package directly:
sql>create or replace package pkg_a
2 is
3    type testTable is table of varchar2(10) index by binary_integer;
4
5    function f_a return testTable;

Calling a function inside a symbol?

Hi there,
I'm one of those flash-devs that are trying to get Edge Animate to do what I usually do in Flash, so I might be doing this the wrong way, but I've got a symbol with a function "inside" on my stage, and I wanna call that function from the stage.
I've been trying to use sym.getComposition().getStage().getSymbol("symbolName").functionName(); but it doesn't work.
I don't have any problems manipulating the symbol itself by calling .play() or .hide() so I know the path works....can anyone show me the right syntax to call a function inside a symbol?
Thx in advance

Hi Abnesher,
An important principle to grasp is that symbols (and the stage is one of them) lies in parallel, despite the fact of instances of different symbols being nested one in another (and all in fine nested in the stage).
The consequence is that from inside your nested symbol you have no direct visibility of the function defined inside the stage symbol !
Inside the Stage symbol, in the document.compositionReady event handler :
sym.yourGlobalFunction = function( firstParameter)
// your stuff
Inside another symbol, in one of its events handlers :
sym.getComposition().getStage().yourGlobalFunction( 5);

Call a function inside a package from a stored procedure

Hello:
I am kind of new to the stored procedure. Does anyone know how to call a function inside a package from another stored procedure?
I have a existing function (func_b) inside a package (pack_a) and it returns a cursor. I want to call this function from a stored procedure (proc_c) so that I use the data inside the cursor.
can I do the following in proc_c:
my_cursor1 SYS_REFCURSOR;
begin
my_cursor1 := exec pack_a.func_b
end
It will be very helpful if anyone can point me to any reading or example. Thank you very much for your information.

guys:
Thank you for your information so far. I need some more help here. I was able to run the function in my stored procedure. However, I was not able to print the result on the screen to view the cursor result, although I am using dbms_output.put_line statement inside my stored procedure.
I use the following statement to execute my stored procedure on sql*plus. I can tell the stored procedure is executed successfully, but I did see anything printed:
DECLARE TEMP VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN PROC_LAWS_CAD_NAME_SEARCH('LPD', 'TEST DEVICE ID', 'TEST LAST NAME', 'TEST FIRST NAME', 'F', '11112009', TEMP); END;
I tried to use 'set serveroutput on' and got the following error:
ERROR:

I am kind of confused now. thank you for your help.
