How to make a call to function module of R/3 side in BW?

I am writing a code in BW to check some discrepancies in data. But this code requires some values which are given as output to the function module, which is present on R/3 or PC1 system. So is there any way by which i can make a call to the R/3 function module in BW so that i could fetch its records directly in BW! any help or suggestion would be apprecited.

Hi,
Once you are administrator or overseer or owner of process that you want to monitor, you can use Guided Procedures Runtime Workcenter (Runtime WC role) which will provide you information (process title, start date, due date, description and progress) about running processes, completed processes, terminated process and erroneous processes.
Another way to reach this information is through Maintain Process menu in GP Administration (GP Administrator role) that will provide you another administration tasks like change authorization, terminate instances, complete step or delete instances.
Unfortunately GP doesnu2019t provide other UIs or Reports. You may use GP APIs to develop your custom report. As soon as I have time I will publish a blog with a custom report that I developed and it may be helpful to you.
Best Regards,

Hi Raj
Function Modules
Function modules are procedures that are defined in special ABAP programs only, so-called function groups, but can be called from all ABAP programs. Function groups act as containers for function modules that logically belong together. You create function groups and function modules in the ABAP Workbench using the Function Builder.
Function modules allow you to encapsulate and reuse global functions in the SAP System. They are managed in a central function library. The SAP System contains several predefined functions modules that can be called from any ABAP program. Function modules also play an important role during updating and in interaction between different SAP systems, or between SAP systems and remote systems through remote communications.
Unlike subroutines, you do not define function modules in the source code of your program. Instead, you use the Function Builder. The actual ABAP interface definition remains hidden from the programmer. You can define the input parameters of a function module as optional. You can also assign default values to them. Function modules also support exception handling. This allows you to catch certain errors while the function module is running. You can test function modules without having to include them in a program using the Function Builder.
The Function Builder also has a release process for function modules. This ensures that incompatible changes cannot be made to any function modules that have already been released. This applies particularly to the interface. Programs that use a released function module will not cease to work if the function module is changed.

You can execute function module in SE37ie you can perform the activiites defined in the function module by executing it.
By deleting BOM you mention the FM name in se37 and execute. In some function module it will ask input parameters as developed in the program , you have to give the input parameters and execute.

How to call a function module dynamically?

Hi
I am doing a smartform development and here my scenario.
Scenario:
There will be a simple report which will trigger a smartform output. The report has a selection screen and and in one of the field the user will enter the layout name or the layout name will be stored in the variant so that the user need not remember the layout name.
Based on the layout selected i need to show the output.
What i have coded:
In my program after selecting the data i am calling the FM SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME which will return the function module name to be called.
Question:
How do i call the function module dynamically. I cannot do a single call to the function module using the FM name derived from the above function call. I want to make the interface calling dynamic. We dont want to hardcode the function calls coz we may have many layouts to be called so how is it possible in SAP to call the FM interface dynamically.
~Suresh

Actually you can call the FM dynamically in by taking it into one variable and than use the CALL FUNCTION V_FM_NAME.
But the problem here is, you need to take care about the importing, exporting and tables parameters. They needs to be same for all FMs which you are planning to call. Otherwise system will give you a run time error.
 CALL FUNCTION 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'
 EXPORTING FORMNAME = LF_FORMNAME
* variant = ' '
* direct_call = ' '
 IMPORTING FM_NAME = LF_FM_NAME
 EXCEPTIONS NO_FORM = 1
 NO_FUNCTION_MODULE = 2
 OTHERS = 3.
 CALL FUNCTION LF_FM_NAME
 EXPORTING
 ARCHIVE_INDEX = TOA_DARA
 ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS = ARC_PARAMS
 CONTROL_PARAMETERS = LS_CONTROL_PARAM
* mail_appl_obj =
* mail_recipient = ls_recipient
 MAIL_SENDER = LS_SENDER

How to call a function module from a transformation

Hi,
Could somebody please let me know how I can call an abap function module from a transformation (abap xslt program). I know how to call the class methods from transformation, but how do i call a function module..?
Thanks,
Shashi.
Edited by: Shashi Kanth Kasam on Apr 8, 2010 12:45 PM

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..?
Thanks,

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.
""Interfase local

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

In above code how to capture 'EV_RC' when FM is called as background task.

Prakash,
CALL FUNCTION IN BACKGROUND TASK allows no IMPORTING parameters, so that your code will produce a syntax error.
The calling program can only handle errors of remote function calls (RFC) if these are either
- synchronous RFC (that is CALL FUNCTION ... DESTINATION ...) or
- asynchronous RFC (that is CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK ... DESTINATION ...).
Both synchronous and asynchronous RFC allow the capturing of errors by means of exceptions. But that is a different topic.

How to call Z-Function module from BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1.

Hi All,
Process code is :BAPI and standard function module is BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1.
I am coding all the logic for the INBOUND IDOC in the Z-Function module ZIDOC_INPUT_ZGOODSMOVEMENTOIL.
My requirement is:
Process code fires the inbound function module BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1, this in turn call the function module ZIDOC_INPUT_ZGOODSMOVEMENTOIL.
How can i call ZIDOC_INPUT_ZGOODSMOVEMENTOIL from BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1 to process the idoc.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Krush,
Thanks for your reply,
Now i can trigger the idoc.
I have one more problem that if i want to add another z-segment to the attached idoc type its not allowing me its saying that it is already generated and cannot be changed.
if i am generating the BDBG transaction its not asking for specific segment and it automatically takes the segment and generates the function module.
How i can add an additinal z-segment to the idoc type and it generate through BDBG transaction to include in inbound function module?
Thanks in Advance.

How to create RFC function module and how to call this function module

Hi,
i want to know step for creating RFC function module and then How to use this function module from some other sap system.
Thnaks,
jigar

Jigar,
To implement a remote function module in ABAP, perform the following steps:
Register the module as remotely callable in the RFC server system.
In the function module Administration screen (transaction code SE37), set the field Can be called via REMOTE CALL. Registering a module as remote causes an RFC stub to be generated for it.
Write the code for the function module.
Create the destinations.....................
Displaying, Maintaining and Testing Destinations
To display, create or modify destinations, choose Tools ® Administration ® Administration ® Network ® RFC destinations or enter transaction code SM59.
Remote Destinations are stored in table RFCDES. The RFCDES table describes logical destinations for remote function calls.
It is not possible to maintain the RFCDES table directly.
You can also access logical destinations via the Implementation Guide (IMG) by choosing Tools ® AcceleratedSAP ® Customizing ® Execute Project ® SAP Reference IMG.
In the Implementation Guide, expand the following hierarchy structure:
Basis
Application Link Enabling (ALE)
Sending and Receiving Systems
Systems in Network
Define Target Systems for RFC Calls
Displaying Destinations
The initial screen for this transaction displays a tree:
Different connection types (i.e. partner systems or programs) are possible. For further information, see Types of Destinations.
To display all information for a given destination, double-click it, or place the cursor on it and press F2 .
To search for a destination, press the Find button and specify your selection. You get a list of all entries matching your selection. Place the cursor on the one you want, and press F2 or simply double-click the destination. All information for the given entry appears.
Creating Destinations
On the destinations overview screen (transaction code SM59), the connection types and all existing destinations are displayed in a tree structure.
All available connection types are explained in Types of Destinations.
To create a new RFC destination, press the Create button. A new screen is displayed with empty fields for you to fill in.
If you want to create a new destination
As you create a remote destination, you can specify a particular application server or a group of servers for a balanced distribution of system load.
For details of the destination parameters, see Entering Destination Parameters.
Changing Existing Destinations
On the destinations overview screen (transaction code SM59), the connection types and all existing destinations are displayed in a tree structure.
You can display all information for a given destination by double-clicking it or pressing F2 on it.
To change an existing destination, double-click it, or place the cursor on it and press the Change button.
For details of the destination parameters, see Entering Destination Parameters.
Testing Destinations
To test a destination, choose the appropriate function from the Test menu.
Connection (also available via the Test connection pushbutton)
Authorization (checks logon data)
Local network (provides a list of application servers)
You can use the CALL FUNCTION statement to call remote functions, just as you would call local function modules. However, you must include an additional DESTINATION clause to define where the function should run:
CALL FUNCTION RemoteFunction
DESTINATION Dest
EXPORTING
f1 =...
f2 =...
IMPORTING
f3 =...
TABLES
t1 =...
EXCEPTIONS......
The field Dest can be either a literal or a variable: its value is a logical destination (for example, "hw1071_53") known to the local SAP System. Logical destinations are defined in the RFCDES table (or the TRFCD table in R/2 Systems) via transaction sm59 or the following menu path: Tools ® Administration, Administration ® Network ® RFC destinations. You can also access logical destinations via the Implementation Guide (IMG) by choosing Tools ® Customizing ® Enterprise IMG. In the Implementation Guide, you can then choose Cross-application components ® ALE ® Communication ® Define RFC destination.
The remote function call concept, for example, allows you to access a function module in an R/2 System from an ABAP program in an R/3 System. If you want to read a customer record from your R/2 Systems database, create a remotely callable function module in the R/2 environment which retrieves customer records. Call this function from your R/3 System using a remote function call and listing the destination for the target R/2 System:

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).

Can one call a function module in Calculated Key Figure?

Can one call a function module in Calculated Key Figure? If yes how, if not, what is the solution if formula does not suffice?
I want to convert duration which is in seconds to Duration in Hours and Minutes. There is a function module for doing it. Not sure how to do it in a formula.

One option you have is a Virtual Key Figure and User Exit to use the Function Module to convert the time from seconds to HH:MM. Here are two documents on this subject to help you create them, based on the technology your comfortable with:
