How to find Obsolete function modules ?
Hi ,
I am working on upgrade project R/3 4.6 to ECC 6.0 . I need to find obsolete function modules in program . I already have list of obsolete FM .Is there any program or logic through which we can find all obsolete FM at single execution.
Thanks & Regards
Sandeep
Hello Sandeep,
I'm not sure if there's a standard report/program to list obsolete function modules, but you can manually check them in table RODIR (via SE16 transaction) - there's a flag properly called 'OBSOLETE'
FYI, table TFDIR contains the FMs that were released.
There are some notes which provid additional information on this topi:
#109533: Use of SAP function modules
#857904: Upgrade from Release 6.40 to 7.0 for customer programs
#595310: ws_filename_get function module is obsolete
Please be aware that those FMs are still there - all applications will have the old function modules installed for
backwards compatibility and legacy reasons. However if you are writing your own code, these function modules will still be available, but not supported by SAP Support.
I hope this information help you.
Best regards,
Tomas Black

How to find which function module write the relevant idoctype?
Dear All,
how to find which function module write the relevant idoctype?Hi,
Generally the function modules of the idoc types are having a naming convention as IDOC_INPUT for inbound processing and IDOC_OUTPUT for outbound processing followed by the idoc type name
for example : For IDOC type ORDERS
the inbound function module will be IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS and for outbound IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERSP
In this way you can find the function module for a particular IDOC
P.S: Hope this is what you have asked for

To find the function modules for standard tables you go for a where used list of that particular table and check only function module interfaces checkbox...
and more over you can go for DB_UPDATE_TABLE will be the function module for updating database table..

How to find standard function modules for IDOCs
Hi,
Can anyone tell me is there any way to find the standard function module for IDOC. I have checked BD60 but it's not available. For example Idoc type WPUBON01 and I need to know the function module. Can anyone tell me the way out.
Secondly, if anyone can provide me the code to map the file fields and idoc segements.
RegardsUse WE82 to find message type associated with Idoc type.
Then use this message type as a search string to find the FM.
The associated FMs are.
POSED_FILL_OVERVIEW_ENT_WPUBON
POSED_INIT_DATA_WPUBON
POSED_LOCK_DATA_WPUBON
POSED_OVERVIEW_ASSIGN_WPUBON
POSED_READ_DATA_FROM_DB_WPUBON

How to find the Function module name
Hi,
Use the appropriate function module to get the manager. (Z_GET_MANAGER )
OR: Given the Org Unit, find the Manager for that Organization. Relationship O B012 S gives the position of the Manager.
for that we used HRP1001 table in that fields
OTYPE = O, RSIGN = B, RELAT =012.
This is the Job that desribes the position, relationship S B007 C.
Use the appropriate Function Module to find the Job?witch table it willbe???
Thanks & Regards
Kavithause table HRP1001 or FM RH_GET_LEADING_POSITION. this will give the position of the manager. now from PA0001 get the manager name by using this position(PLANS).
You can also use FM - RH_GET_LEADER

How to find the Obsolete function module in ECC 6.0
Hi Guys,
How we can find the all obsolete function in ECC 6.0, is any T-code to finding the obsolete function modules, or any other way to find.
Could you please help me.
Thanks,
Gourisankar.Hi Gouri,
If you are looking at determining whether a single FM is obsolete or not is by this method:
Go to FM in SE37 -> Goto Attributes Tab -> General Data section -> look above the Edit Lock field ... where SAP places the release status and date of the FM, if the FM is obsolete, the text Function Obsolete appears
This is one way of finding out one FM @ a time
However if you want to check on a mass scale, I dont have a SAP system here hence cant confirm, however, all FMs are stored in TFDIR database table. Please scroll through the fields of the DB table to check whether any field relates to release status or the like. If it does, then from SE16, you can put the value corresponding to "Obsolete" in the field and run to check all FMs.
Cheers,

Upgrade: Finding ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6
Hello everyone,
Is there a way to find ALL obsolete function modules in ECC6?
I have seen a few web pages posting a small list of obsolete function modules but they are not complete.
I have also tried querying table TFTIT for short text such as 'OBSOLETE' and 'Do not use'. However, some obsolete function modules do not leave any clue in the description at all such as WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT.
However, if you go to SE37 to view WWW_GET_MIME_OBJECT, you will notice that the SAP screen displays it as 'Function obsolete' under the General Data tab.
I have tried to debug the SE37 transaction to see which flag determines if a function is obsolete but I was not able to find it.
Any one has any ideas? Thanks a lot!Hi Oscean,
Check table RODIR where objecttype = FUNC and Obsolete = X.
Thanks

You know, the real power of forums like these is the search functionality. First you locate the correct forum, you succeeded in that and then you locate the search field and type in your question. In your case "check function module"

Besst way to find a function module
Hi there
I am quiet new to ABAP and I am curiouse about how to best approach the search for a function module??
can u guys please tell me how you search for functions modules that preform a specific task.
For example if I search for a function module that would display a itab in an alv grid, how would I do that?
Thanks,
NanaHi Nana Lohmanns
Generic way of Finding the function module is only to go to se37 type any combination like ALV na dpress F4.
You will get name of function modules along with short text,then you can try the one you think as useful.
Like when you are looking for a Function module which can perform Operation on DATE.go to SE37 Type _DATE then press F4.You will get list of Function modules like:
<b>DATE_CHECK_PLAUSIBILITY</b>: Check to see if a date is in a valid format for SAP. Works well when validating dates being passed in from other systems.
<b>DATE_COMPUTE_DAY</b>: Returns a number indicating what day of the week the date falls on. Monday is returned as a 1, Tuesday as 2, etc.
<b>DATE_GET_WEEK</b> :will return the week that a date is in.
<b>DATE_IN_FUTURE</b>: Calculate a date N days in the future.

Replacements for obsolete function modules
Hi,
What is the best way to find out the replacement for the obsolete function modules? We are starting an upgrade project and are required to replace the obsolete function modules used in that. So before starting that I want to keep a list of obsolete function modules and their replacements ready.
SSHi,
RODIR table gives not only FM, all obsoletes types.
if you dont find, best way is when we check EPC for the program,
in call function interface warnings shows, obsolete function modules.
or do UCCHECK it will both obsolete and suggested replacements.
Thanks
