Calling ABAP Function Module in BODS, but not RFC_enabled

Hello Experts
We have an ECC ABAP Function Module takes 5 input parameters and returns Division Name for an Employee and Employee PERNR is one of the input parameters for the Function Module.
I tried adding a function call in the target schema of Query Transform and the output parm passes out as an Output column. But getting an error that ABAP FM is not RFC_enabled. I checked attributes, and it is not RFC_enabled.
So is there way to invoke this FM as part of BODS ABAP Dataflow?. Becuase the code executes on ECC, it does not need to be RFC enabled, I believe. But on the Query Transform, the option "New Function Call" isn't enabled or it is greyed out, I can't select it.
What is the solution to invoke this ABAP FM with enabling RFC on it ?
Please provide me your inputs.
thank you

Hi,
Create a custom wrapper FM which is Remote enabled & call the FM DD_DOMA_GET inside your custom Remote FM. Changing the std. FM would be a core code mod. hence above approach would be safe.
Thanks,
Best regards,

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.

How to call ABAP function module/ class method through web service?

Hi Colleagues,
I need to write an iphone version of current ABAP program. I want to call ABAP method and function module through my iphone so that I can re-use the ABAP APIs.So I choose web service. Can you give me any details information about how to do that?
Thank you very much

Hi,
you need to create webservice out of FM. goto SE80 and follow the webservice creation wizard. Finally use webservice url for calling FM (remote enabled) from your iPhone.

Program making a RFC call to Function Module not working in background

Hi All,
I have an ABAP Program which is used to do a reconciliation check between the R/3 and BI system for Invoice Data. Please find below the details of the program flow:
1.     Program counts the number of records in the DSO table and aggregates the Net_Value based on the date range (passed as parameters)
2.     Program calls a Function Module (RFC Call) which counts the number of records in the R/3 table and aggregates the Net_Value for the same date range
3.     Function Module Passes back the count values and aggregated Net_Value to the program
4.     Program compares the count and aggregated Net_Value from EDWH and MSP systems and sends an email mentioning whether the counts match or not
However we are facing an issue.
Whenever, we execute the program in dialog mode, it works fine and fetches results within 5-6 minutes. However if we schedule the program to run in background (parameters through a variant), it gives no results even after running for over 3-4 hours. We tried figuring it out yesterday but could not come to any conclusion. Since there is a RFC call being to the function module, we were wondering if we need to specify some other parameter as well.
Thanks & Regards
Dharmendra

RFC Call is a procedure for executing remote enables function modules. It is done via the 'Remote Enabled' radio button on the function module's attribute screen.

Is it possible to call Normal function Module from WD4A , Not RFCs

Is it possible to call Normal function Module(FM) from WebDynPro for ABAP , Not RFCs

There is no difference, unless you are specifically calling the RFC to connect to another system. If so, then you need to add the DESTINATION keyword to the function call and specify the destination name. This name must be defined in SM59. But, if you are not going to another system, you can call the RFC the same way you call the regular function module.

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

Service call to function module not fetching data

Hello Experts,
Today, I have started facing one more weird issue of the similar kind, I faced few weeks back.
Once my web dynpro application is loaded, on the click of button I make a service call to function module which brings me some data and that is being shown on the UI.
After doing few more service calls on the click of other buttons, when I click on the button initially clicked, service call is being made but no data is being returned.
I already debugged the code, made sure the parameters is being passed correctly to function module.
Regards,
Harsh

Hello Katrice,
I debugged to the hilt and found that standard function module 'ME_REL_ACTIVE' was returning sy-subrc non zero.
I cleared one variable after identifying it. Below is the code snippet:
    ld_read_t16fg = '(SAPLEBNF)READ_T16FG'.
    ASSIGN (ld_read_t16fg) TO <lst_read_t16fg>.
    IF <lst_read_t16fg> IS ASSIGNED AND <lst_read_t16fg> IS NOT INITIAL.
      CLEAR <lst_read_t16fg>.
    ENDIF.
    UNASSIGN <lst_read_t16fg>.

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
This helps you navigate through the wealth of information also at SDN

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

Calling a function module out of a web template

Hi experts,
I need to call an ABAP function module out of a web template including a query with the variable values of the query as input parameters. There shall be button, which starts the funtion module, if the user clicks it. I don't need to transfer any other data just the variables. I have no idea how to accomplish that.
I experimented with implementing interface IF_BICS_CONS_WEBITEM_CUST_EXIT but this does not seem to help me, as the initialize method is called when starting the web template and I did not manage to bind it or the execute method to that button. Besides I was getting shortdumps when starting the web template with the customer extension web item. I declared it as ABAP_CLASS_NAME exit and set the right class name. Variable Container Access and Navigational State Access is on, Result Set Access is off.
Is there any other possibility to do this? Perhaps with BSP?
Can I call an ABAP function module with Javascript out of the template? If yes, which command can I use to do it?
Thank you very much in advance

Hi Markus,
if you are on BI 7.0 or higher I recommend using Integrated Planning for this requirement. If you implement a fox formula you can easily get the current variable value and execute the function module. You can execute the fox formula upon button click.
If you need more information just let us know.
Brgds,
Marcel

Calling a function module from within a transformation routine

I created a routine within a transformation and experience the following weird behavior now:
When I call a function module within that routine, the load fails with the following error message:
Exceptions in Substep: Rules
When I click on the button next to this text, it point me to my function module call.
What I do not understand is, that the following two scenarios work fine:
- Having the same function call (with fake values) in a plain ABAP program works beautilfully
- If I copy the content of my function module directly into my transformation routine, everything works fine as well
I am now wondering whether the routine does not "see" the function module I am calling. The module resides in a different package. Is that a problem? Do I have to include something first?
Here is the code that calls my FM (
CALL FUNCTION 'Z_CA_CONVERT_US_COST'
     EXPORTING
        PSOURCEVAL                      = SOURCE_FIELDS-/BIC/USFRZMFC

       PARTNO_NOT_FOUND          = 2
       OTHERS                    = 3.
Thanks a lot for your help. Points will be assigned.

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.

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

How do you call a function module in a web dynpro application ?

Its not me deleting them. Perhaps a different moderator or a technical problem within SCN itself.
Someone might be concerned about your question because it is very basic.
You can call a function module from WD the same way you did in any ABAP program - with the CALL FUNCTION syntax. There is a service call wizard that will generate a matching context and calling code for you - but it is just a helper, code generator. Everything it does can be done by hand as well (and often better than the generator).
