Call BAPI directly or use bus object types

Hi,
A quick question.
At a customer, I need to create a targetgroup in a CRM system from an ABAP program
I found that there exists the standard business object type BUS1185, what in fact has several methods which call BAPI functions ( for example BAPI_TARGETGROUP_CREATE )
My question is know what is the best way to create the targetgroup, call the BAPI directly or use the object type ( via include <CNTN01> and the macro's SWC...
Thanks in advance for your advice
Erwin

the only reason for using the BO macro's in regular ABAP programming, is if you want to emulate workflow behaviour, or if extra logic of the business object is needed (for instance if you have to know the content of several (virtual) attributes)). In the last case you also have to instantiate the BO.
Other than that, just use the BAPI.
Kind regards, Rob dielemans

  • How to use an Object Type from Another Database

    Hi,
    I have this requirement that I need to call a stored procedure from another DB (db1) but I am having a problem with this because one of the input parameters uses an object type defined in that DB (db1). Is it possible to use an object type from another database? TIA!

  • Using Multiple Object Types in a FIM Managed Criteria Distribution Group

    Is it possible to use multiple object types in a criteria based distribution group. So when building your criteria filter, "Select (object type) that match (all/any) of the following condiftions". Currently you can only choose 1 object type and
    I want to be able to choose object type "user" and a custom object type I create for my contacts 

    You can create main condition as "any" and later add two sub-conditions - one that object in set "All People" and other sub-condition that object in set "All Contacts" or "All Groups".

  • How to call a Oracle Proc,which contains Object Type as in Param, from java

    Hi
    Would like to know how to call a Oracle Procedure which contains the Object Type Parameter from java.
    Here is my code will look like...
    1. CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE emp AS OBJECT
    Empno NUMBER,
    Ename VARCHAR2(50)
    [COLOR=royalblue]In step1 I have created object type.[COLOR]
    2.CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE ref_pkg IS

    Hi Bob
    You can call a stored proc from a database control with the jc:sql annotation itself.
    Assume a stored proc taking one In parameter
    * @jc:sql statement="call sp_updateData({id})"
    void call_sp_updateCust(int id);
    You can even call stored proc with OUT parameters using
    * @jc:sql statement="{call sp_MyProc(?, ?)}"
    void call_sp_MyProc(SQLParameter[] params)
    You can also call stored functions via db control.
    More info and diff ways to call at

  • Problem using Oracle Object Types and Arrays.

    I'm currently trying to work with oracle object types in java and I'm running into some issues when trying to add an item to an array.
    The basic idea is that I have a header object and a detail object (both only containing an ID and a description). Inside of my java code I'm trying to add a new detail line to the header that has been retrieved from the database.
    Here's what I'm working with.
    --Oracle Objects:
    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE dtl_obj AS OBJECT

    Oracle® Database Object-Relational Developer's Guide
    Also note that object relational database design is often less performant and scalable than relational. It is not very often used in production environments.
    However, the object orientated programming feature that is provided with Oracle object feature set are used and can make development and interfaces a lot easier.
    So in a nutshell. Say no to ref and nested table columns. Say yes to most of the other object features. IMO of course...

  • Need some help on procedure calling procedure using object type reg

    dear all,
    i need to test one procedure by passing only one value but how do i pass single value. i am showing the details of few section on which i am working on. here is few details about the package.
    Description: package pkj_emp contains two procedure pkj_emp and procedure proc_rem.
    purpose:based on passing dname values to procedure pkj_emp, cursor cur_emp will fetch empid from emp table and then we are passing 4 empid records to procedure proc_rem using empid object type.Inside the procedure proc_rem it will delete all 4 records of table A,B,C and D at one short.
    Requirement:i need to test for only one value that means is it possible i can pass only one value using the cursor cur_emp.
    create or replace package pkj_emp
    TYPE obj_emp IS TABLE OF NUMBER INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    procedure proc_emp(empid obj_emp);
    create or replace package body pkj_emp

    You have hardcoded your IN LIST in the REM procedure. I recommend changing the code to take a variable number of inputs. You could do something like the following:

    Table created.
    SQL> CREATE TABLE C (ID NUMBER);
    Table created.

    Table created.

    SQL> INSERT INTO B VALUES(7902);
    1 row created.

  • Adding new object type (field BKPF-AWKEY) for BAPI posting

    Hi everyone,
    I am posting to SAP GL using an input file to read the data and transfer it to BKPF and BSEG tables.
    The problem is I have to use BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST, and it expects values for OBJ_KEY and OBJ_TYPE.. For now, OBJ_TYPE creates a problem, because if I use BKPF, it says it cannot post using this object type, as it is for SAP internal use only.
    Does anyone know how to add a new object type for the customer namespace, which can be manually used for this kind of posting? I know that the new entry must be made in tables TTYP, TTYPT, and possibly TTYPV, for which the maintainence view exists: V_TTYPV.
    How to add an entry here, or where can I find it in customizing?
    All helpful answers will be awarded.
    Thank you very much

  • Can't create object types in forms 10

    Hello,
    I am trying to use object types in forms 10.
    I have already created successfully two object types and also corresponding object views.
    With one object type A everything works fine in form. But with the other object type B it doesn't.
    I am calling the constructor of object B and after the constructor finshed, forms says that there is a numeric or value error.
    Well, by nbow I have reduced attributes from object B so that they are identical to object A (which works). But still get the same error or if I use a different constructor I get NULL as a return value. I tested the constructors with test script in the database directly and viola - the constructor are working fine.
    Only if I use the constructors in forms environment they fail.
    Any ideas why this might happen?
    Thank you
    Matthias
    Well, I fear to use the object types in my next project cause if I run into trouble if the object types are so easy with less code, what else might happen if they are filled up with much more code?

    Hello again,
    I have tried again and still get the exception.
    Now I provide the code. Perhaps someone can see, why this exceptioon occurs.
    In the database I coded the following:
    create or replace type GenericObject as object
    -- Attributes
    iVersion VARCHAR2(8),
    -- Member functions and procedures
    MEMBER FUNCTION toString(SELF IN OUT NOCOPY GenericObject) RETURN VARCHAR2,
    FINAL MEMBER FUNCTION toString001(SELF IN OUT NOCOPY GenericObject) RETURN VARCHAR2,
    NOT INSTANTIABLE MEMBER PROCEDURE log(pLogger IN OUT MyLogger)
    ) NOT INSTANTIABLE NOT FINAL
    create or replace type body GenericObject is
    -- Member procedures and functions
    MEMBER FUNCTION toString(SELF IN OUT NOCOPY GenericObject) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
    BEGIN
    RETURN SELF.toString001();
    END;
    FINAL MEMBER FUNCTION toString001(SELF IN OUT NOCOPY GenericObject) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
    BEGIN
    RETURN 'GenericObject(' || SELF.iVersion || ')';
    END;
    end;
    create or replace type MyTestA UNDER GenericObject
    -- Attributes
    iPk VARCHAR2(16),
    iName VARCHAR2(100),
    iDCN NUMBER,

    lvText VARCHAR2(1000);
    BEGIN
    lvText := SELF.toString001();

    END;
    OVERRIDING MEMBER PROCEDURE log(SELF IN OUT NOCOPY MyTestA, pLogger IN OUT MyLogger) IS
    BEGIN
    pLogger.log(toString());
    END;
    end;
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW v_testa OF MyTesta
    WITH OBJECT IDENTIFIER (iPk) AS
    SELECT
    '1.0' iVersion
    ,g.pk iPk, g.NAME iName, g.ora_rowscn iDCN FROM o_geraete g
    DROP TABLE o_geraete;
    CREATE TABLE
    o_geraete
    pk VARCHAR2(16)
    , name VARCHAR2(100)
    , hersteller_FK VARCHAR2(16)
    , zaehlernummer VARCHAR2(20)
    , dummy VARCHAR2(10)
    INSERT INTO o_geraete
    VALUES(
    '100', 'Stromzähler', '1', 'AB-56', 'dumb'
    INSERT INTO o_geraete
    VALUES(
    '200', 'Wasserzähler', '2', 'WS-09', 'dumb'
    In forms I created a form from the view and coded into the on-insert-trigger:
    declare
         lvtest mytesta;
    begin
         message('1');
         lvtest := new mytesta(:blk_testa.iname, 1);
         message('2');
         message('3' || lvtest.tostring());
    exception
         when others then
              message('Exception: ' || sqlerrm);
    end;
    And in that forms block I got the exception.
    Perhaps someone has ANY idea...
    Thanx a lot

  • How can I obtain an object-type variable in Forms 6i?

    i create an object-type in oracle 8i database like this:
    TYPE OBJ_TYPE_NUMBER AS OBJECT
    FIELD1 NUMBER,
    MEMBER PROCEDURE INIT, ...
    i create a variable of this object-type in a stored procedure in Oracle 8i:
    v_Number OBJ_TYPE_NUMBER(10);
    and then call it's method:
    v_Number.INIT;
    it work's!
    But when I try to compile a previous variable declaration
    (v_Number OBJ_TYPE_NUMBER;) in Oracle Forms 6i I see only an error message.
    So my question is How can I declare and use an object-type variable in Forms 6i?

    Hi,
    the release after Forms 6i is Forms9i. Forms9i does have the PLSQL engine of Oracle 9.0.0.2 database which means that it should knwo how to handle object types in PLSQL.

  • How to return object  type from external c procedure ?

    Hello all,
    I'm trying for the first time to return an object type as the return value of an external stored procedure (in C ).
    I don't have any issue to use an object type parameter for the function but not to return one to the caller.
    each time I try I get "ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel" and the connection is dropped.
    Thanks for any help,

  • How to trigging a object event which the object type has two key fields

    Hi,kind guys
    I use the object type QMSM about qualification notification task,it has two key fiedls,qualification notification number and task number (can display by t-code -QM03), I want to trigging the event 'create' in  BOR 'QMSM ' by function SWE_EVENT_CREATE(or SAP_WAPI_event_create), but it only has one object key ,
    example:
    CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
      EXPORTING
        OBJTYPE                       =  OBJTYPE
        OBJKEY                        =  OBJKEY " only one key
        EVENT                         =   EVENT
    but the BOR object 'QMSM' has two keys,so it cann't be trigged rightly.
    thanks for any help.

    You have to Concatenate the Business object keys and pass it in one variable OBJKEY.
    Thanks

  • Smart Synchronization Without calling BAPI wrapper

    Hi All,
    I am very new to SAP MI development...
    I wanted to know that
    is it possible to call BAPI directly not calling with use of BAPI Wrapper?
    is there any other way to do Smart Synchronization where BAPI wrappern not required?
    Thanks,

    Hi Maulik,
    if u directly want to call the BAPI u will need to call the underlying RFC related to that BAPI.
    This is done through Generic Synchronization.
    Please refer to documents on help.sap.com and MDK for further help.
