Jobs to run the function modules to extract the generic extarctors

Gurus,
I have a Datasource 'ZCMS_PP_TRAN' with extract structure 'ZBW_ST_CMSD_PP'. The extract structure is populated using the function module Z_BW_GET_CMSD_PP.
But how do I schedule this FM or in general, are they run using std programs?
Thanks,
Simmi

Hi Simmi,
what ever it may be the DS(i mean Business Content DS, Generic DS).... these will extract the Data using Dynamic Function Calls(not always). Comming to Generic DS using FM, this will be called using Dynamic Function Module.
In RSA3 or while extracting data from BW, you will pass request number, Update Mode, debugging option, selection fields, BW source System ID, DS Name.
Based on these details system will extract the underlying extract structure and function module(or table/view/infoset).
No job(Job created from BW while extracting data in the source system BI_requestid) created for Generic DS while extracting data in SAP.
For Queue Delta, Background job will be created, it will move the data to Delta Queue.
i will update the thread with related function modules. Try to debugg in RSA3, you could find all the information.
all the best.
Nagesh.

Hi,
There seems to be an error in the function module OPEN_FORM obstructing the process.

What is the Function MOdule that returns the fields in database table order

Hello Folks
I have a dynamic internal table with fields ( which are not in order). I want to display them in the order of which they are present in the database table? Is there any function module that returns the fields in database order?

How to debug a function module using in the generic datasource?

Hi all,
We have created a generic data source using function modulle and have been extracting the data for a single customer it contains single records but it has pulled out more than 10,000 records. how to debug the function module used in the data source.
since we schedule for extraction in bi and back ground job gets triggered in ecc for extraction,
i know in se37 we can select the function module name and then debug but still need to check while the bacground job is trigered through bi.
Thanks

Yes you can debug the Function Module.
Open the function module in SE37 and put a break point in the code where you want to check from, then come to RSA3 and give the datasource name and check the Debug check box on this screen, once you click on the start button it will take you the place where you have placed the break point in the FM, by pressing F5 you can see the flow of the FM.
Let me know whether this solves your issue.

Getting error in the function module

Hi everybody.
I have created one function module in se37 and i am calling that function module in the se38 report, when i am executing the report it is throwing me an error.
here in my report i am having the select option fields ex matnr, in the function module importing i have given the parameter matnr over there and when i am running the report it is through an error that
"The function module interface allows you to specify only
fields of a particular type under "MATNR".
The field "S_MATNR" specified here is a different
field type                                                "
IF i am giving the parameter instead of select-options in the report and executing, then the function module is getting triggered and receiving the data what ever the code is available in the source code.
can anyone help me out in this issue so that i can get the data while using the select-option instead of parameter.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Actually, I wouldn't recommend the use of that tables parameter...
From sap help:
Table parameters are obsolete CHANGING parameters that are typed as standard tables with a header line. If an internal table without a header line or a table body is passed as an actual parameter to a formal parameter of this type, an empty local header line is generated in the function module. If an internal table with a header line is used as an actual parameter, both the table body and the header line are passed to the function module. Pass by value is not possible in formal parameters defined using TABLES. Formal parameters defined with TABLES can be replaced by formal parameters defined with CHANGING. A local work area can be created for the internal table in the function module by using the addition LIKE LINE OF itab of the DATA statement.
Exceptions
So i definitely would go with either importing or changing parameter...
Cheers,
m.

Hi guru's what are the function modules are used in ALV

hi guru's what are the function modules are used in ALV

Hi vasu,
There are some function modules which will enable to produce the reports without much effort.
All the definitions of internal tables, structures and constants are declared in a type-pool called SLIS.
1. SIMPLE REPORT.
The important function modules are
a. Reuse_alv_list_display
b. Reuse_alv_fieldcatalog_merge
c. Reuse_alv_events_get
d. Reuse_alv_commentary_write
e. Reuse_alv_grid_display
A. REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY : This is the function module which prints the data.
The important parameters are :
I. Export :
i. I_callback_program : report id

II. Tables :
i. t_outtab : internal table with the data to be output
B. REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE : This function module is used to populate a fieldcatalog which is essential to display the data in ALV. If the output data is from a single dictionary table and all the columns are selected, then we need not exclusively create the field catalog. Its enough to mention the table name as a parameter(I_structure name) in the REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY. But in other cases we need to create it.
The Important Parameters are :
I. Export :
i. I_program_name : report id
ii. I_internal_tabname : the internal output table
iii. I_inclname : include or the report name where all the dynamic forms are handled.
II Changing
ct_fieldcat : an internal table with the type SLIS_T_FIELDCAT_ALV which is
declared in the type pool SLIS.
C. REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET : Returns table of possible events for a list type
Parameters :
I. Import :
Et_Events : The event table is returned with all possible CALLBACK events
for the specified list type (column 'NAME'). For events to be processed by Callback, their 'FORM' field must be filled. If the field is initialized, the event is ignored. The entry can be read from the event table, the field 'FORM' filled and the entry modified using constants from the type pool SALV.
II. Export :
I_List_type :
0 = simple list REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY
1 = hierarchcal-sequential list REUSE_ALV_HIERSEQ_LIST_DISPLAY
2 = simple block list REUSE_ALV_BLOCK_LIST_APPEND

Parameters :
I. it_list_commentary : internal table with the headings of the type slis_t_listheader.
This internal table has three fields :
Typ : H header, S selection , A - action
Key : only when typ is S.
Info : the text to be printed
E. REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY : A new function in 4.6 version, to display the results in grid rather than as a preview.
Parameters : same as reuse_alv_list_display
This is an example for simple list.

some theory regarding alv:
This table tells ALV which events are processed by the caller by CALLBACK.
The table of possible events per list type can be initialized using the module REUSE_ALV_EVENTS_GET.
You can display the names of the constants in the type pools SLIS which represent the individual events using the individual test function in the function module
REUSE_ALV_EVENT_NAMES_GET. Only events with a form routine name are processed.
The table structure contains the fields:
IT_EVENTS-NAME
Name of the Callback event.
Possible Callback events:
Action
USER_COMMAND USING R_UCOMM LIKE SY-UCOMM RS_SELFIELD TYPE SLIS_SELFIELD
Process actions on the list
As this is a frequently-used Callback event, the form routine can also be passed directly in the interface in the IMPORTING parameter I_CALLBACK_USER_COMMAND.
PF_STATUS_SET USING RT_EXTAB TYPE SLIS_T_EXTAB
If a user list status is to be set, it must be done in the form routine assigned to this event. The ALV function codes, which must not be active, are in the Parameter RT_EXTAB. This table must be passed with the SET PF-STATUS command (with inactive user function codes as well, if necessary).
The STANDARD status of the function group SALV should be used as a template for a user-specific status.
As this is a frequently-used Callback event, its form routine can also be passed directly in the interface in the IMPORTING parameter I_CALLBACK_PF_STATUS_SET.
ITEM_DATA_EXPAND USING RS_SELFIELD TYPE SLIS_SELFIELD RFLG_ALL TYPE C
Only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists using the layout parameter IS_LAYOUT-EXPAND_FIELDNAME of the structure IS_LAYOUT.
Exit for passing item entries (ITEM table) for a header record which was expanded interactively by the user.
RS_SELFIELD-TABINDEX contains the header table index for which the item entries are to be put in the global item output table (T_OUTTAB_SLAVE). The Callback is only called if ALV has no items for a header which is to be expanded.
RFLG_ALL is passed with 'X' if the user shows all items. The application must ensure that entries are not repeated in the item table. RS_SELFIELD is initial in this case.
CALLER_EXIT USING RS_DATA Is called at the beginning of the function module to make special settings. It is not usually used.
List processing events
IMPORTANT: The application Callback routine must not manipulate the internal output table and/or its header record. This restriction applies to all Callbacks which are called in the list output and run under the 'List processing events'.
TOP_OF_LIST no USING parameter. Information output at the start of the list
END_OF_LIST no USING parameter. Information output at the end of the list
TOP_OF_PAGE no USING parameter
Equivalent to the list processing TOP-OF-PAGE event
END_OF_PAGE no USING parameter. Not available for hierarchical-sequential lists.
Information output at the end of a page. This is only called for printing.
TOP_OF_COVERPAGE no USING parameter
The selection information and list status are output together (if they exist) on a separate page by default. See also the documentation of the parameters:
IS_PRINT-NO_COVERPAGE
IS_PRINT-NO_PRINT_SELINFOS
IS_PRINT-NO_PRINT_LISTINFOS
IS_LAYOUT-GET_SELINFOS
The user can format the header area of the 'cover page' himself or herself by specifying a Callback routine for this event.
END_OF_COVERPAGE no USING parameter
Analogously to TOP_OF_COVERPAGE the user can add other information to the information output by ALV (selection information, list status) at this event.
FOREIGN_TOP_OF_PAGE no USING parameter
The Top-of-page event is always processed in ALV and is only passed to the caller via the Callback mechanism. This is still the case if the caller, e.g. by a user action, processes a branch list which was not formatted by ALV (e.g. a popup with additional information about the list record selected and displayed by ALV).
In this case, top-of-page cannot be formatted by ALV analogously to the basic list, it must be handled completely by the caller. The event top-of-page still occurs in ALV. When ALV notices a top-of-page which was not caused by an ALV output, the form routine in FOREIGN_TOP_OF_PAGE is called.
FOREIGN_END_OF_PAGE no USING parameter
The event end-of-page is always processed in ALV and only passed to the caller via callback. This is still the case, e.g. when the caller processes a details list which was not formatted by ALV (e.g. a popup with further information about selected list records which were displayed by ALV).
In this case, end-of-page cannot be formatted by ALV analogously to the basic list, it must be handled completely by the caller. The event end-of-page still occurs in ALV. When ALV notices an end-of-page that was not caused by an ALV output, the form routine in FOREIGN_END_OF_PAGE is called.
BEFORE_LINE_OUTPUT USING RS_LINEINFO TYPE SLIS_LINEINFO
Output information before each output line. Should only be used in justified cases because it costs a lot of performance.
AFTER_LINE_OUTPUT USING RS_LINEINFO TYPE SLIS_LINEINFO
Output information after each output line. Should only be used in justified cases because it costs a lot of performance.
Internal use only
LIST_MODIFY USING R_TABNAME TYPE SLIS_TABNAME
R_INDEX LIKE SY-TABIX
R_INDEX_ITEM LIKE SY-TABIX
R_INDEX_SUM LIKE SY-TABIX
IT_EVENTS-FORM
Name of the form routine which should be called in the calling program at the event.
Field_catalog:
Field catalog with field descriptions
2.7.1. Description
Field catalog containing descriptions of the list output fields (usually a subset of the internal output table fields). A field catalog is required for every ALV list output.
The field catalog for the output table is built-up in the caller's coding. The build-up can be completely or partially automated by calling the REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE module
See also the documentation of the function module REUSE_ALV_FIELDCATALOG_MERGE.
The minimal field catalog is documented under 'default'. The caller can use the other optional parameters to assign output attributes to a field which differ from the default.
A field catalog need not be built-up and passed explicitly only under the following conditions:
The internal table to be output has the same structure as a Data Dictionary structure which is referred to in the internal table declaration using LIKE or INCLUDE STRUCTURE.
all fields in this structure are to be output
the structure name is passed to ALV in the parameter I_STRUCTURE_NAME.
See also the documentation of the IMPORTING paramter I_STRUCTURE_NAME.
Positioning
row_pos (row position)
value set: 0, 1 - 3
Only relevant if the list output is to be multi-line (two or three lines) by default.
A multi-line list can also be defined by the user interactively if the default list is one-line.
The parameter specifies the relative output line of the column in a multi-line list.
col_pos (column position)
value set: 0, 1 - 60
only relevant when the default relative column positions differ from the field catalog field sequence. The parameter specifies the relative column position of the field in the list output. The column order can be changed interactively by the user. If this parameter is initial for all field catalog entries, columns appear in the field catalog field sequence.
Identification
fieldname (field name)
value set: internal output table field name (required parameter)
Name of the internal output table field which is described by this field catalog entry
tabname (internal output table)
value set: SPACE, internal output table name
This parameter is used in 'manual' field catalog build-up only for hierarchical-sequential lists.
Name of the internal output table which contains the field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME.
Data Dictionary reference
ref_fieldname (reference field name)
value set: SPACE, Data Dictionary field name
Name of the Data Dictionary field referred to.
This parameter is only used when the internal output table field described by the current field catalog entry has a reference to the Data Dictionary (not a program field), and the field name in the internal output table is different from the name of the field in the Data Dictionary. If the field names are identical, naming the Data Dictionary structure or table in the FIELDCAT-REF_TABNAME parameter is sufficient.
ref_tabname (reference table/structure field name)
value set: SPACE, name of a Data Dictionary structure or table
Structure or table name of the referred Data Dictionary field.
This parameter is only used when the internal output table field described by the current field catalog entry has a Data Dictionary reference (not a program field).
Reference to fields with currency/measurement unit
Each internal output table sum or quantity field whose decimal places are to be formatted appropriately for the unit in the list must follow the convention:
the field is of data type QUAN or CURR (internal type P) (the field must really have this physical data type. Overwriting the physical data type with the parameter FIELDCAT-DATATYPE has no effect)
There is a field in the internal output table which contains the associated unit.
There is also an entry in the field catalog for the unit field.
(If the unit is not to appear as a column in the list, and cannot be interactively displayed as a column, e.g. because it is always unambiguous and is therefore explicitly output by the caller in the list header, the field catalog units field entry can take the parameter FIELDCAT-TECH = 'X'.
The association of a value field to a unit affects the output as follows:
appropriate decimal places display for the unit
an initialized field with a link to a non-initial unit is output as '0' for the unit (if FIELDCAT-NO_ZERO is initial). When this field is summed, this unit affects whether the units are homogeneous.
an initialized field with a link to an initial unit is output as SPACE. When this field is summed, the unit SPACE does not affect the homogeneity of the units.
When non-initial fields with an initial unit are summed, the unit SPACE is considered to be a unit.
Link to currency unit
cfieldname (currency unit field name)
value set: SPACE, output table field name
Only relevant for amount columns with associated unit.
Name of the internal output table field containing the currency unit associated with the amount field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME. The field in FIELDCAT-CFIELDNAME must have its own field catalog entry.
ctabname (internal currency unit field output table)
value set: SPACE, output table field name
only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists
Name of the internal output table containing the FIELDCAT-CFIELDNAME field.
Link to measurement unit
qfieldname (measurement unit field name)
value set: SPACE, output table field name
only relevant for quantity columns with unit link.
Name of the internal output table field containing the measurement unit associated with the quantity field FIELDCAT-FIELDNAME.
The field in FIELDCAT-QFIELDNAME must have its own field catalog entry.
qtabname (internal measurement unit field output table)
value set: SPACE, output table field name
only relevant for hierarchical-sequential lists
Name of the internal output table containing the FIELDCAT-QFIELDNAME field.
Column output options
outputlen (column width)
value set: 0 (initial), n
For fields with a Data Dictionary link this parameter can be left initial.
For fields without a Data Dictionary link (program field) the parameter must be given the value of the desired field list output length (column width).
initial = column width is the output length of the referred Data Dictionary field (domain).
n = column width is n characters
key (key column)
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = kex field (key field output in color)
Key fields can not be interactively hidden. Parameter FIELDCAT-NO_OUT must be left initial.
For exceptions see the documentation of the FIELDCAT-KEY_SEL parameter.
key_sel (hideable key column)
value set: SPACE, 'X'
only relevant when FIELDCAT-KEY = 'X'
Key field which can be hidden interactively.
The key column sequence cannot be changed interactively by the user.
The output is controlled by the FIELDCAT-NO_OUT parameter analogously to non-key fields.
no_out (field in field list)
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = field is not displayed in the current list.
The user can interactively choose the field for output from the field list.
The user can display the contents of these fields at line level using the 'Detail' function.
See also the 'Detail screen' documentation of the parameter IS_LAYOUT.
tech (technical field)
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = technical field
Field cannot be output in the list and cannot be displayed interactively.
Field can only be used in the field catalog (not in IT_SORT, ...).
emphasize (highlight columns in color)
value set: SPACE, 'X' or 'Cxyz' (x:'1'-'9'; y,z: '0'=off '1'=on)
'X' = column is colored with the default column highlight color.
'Cxyz' = column is colored with a coded color:
C: Color (coding must begin with C)
x: color number
y: bold
z: inverse
hotspot (column as hotspot)
value set: SPACE, 'X'
'X' = column cells are output as hotspots
fix_column (fix column)
value set: SPACE, 'X'
Not relevant for block lists (output of several lists consecutively)
'X' = column fixed (does not scroll horizontally)
All columns to be fixed must have this flag, starting from the left. If a column without this flag is output, only the columns to the left of this column are fixed. The user can change the column fixing interactively. See also the documentation of the Layout parameter
IS_LAYOUT-NO_KEYFIX of the IMPORTING paramter IS_LAYOUT.
do_sum (sum over column)
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = a sum is to be calculated over this internal output table field.
This function can also be called by the user interactively.
no_sum (sums forbidden)
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = no sum can be calculated over this field, although the data type of the field would allow summing.
input (column ready for input)
Function not available
Format column contents
icon
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = column contents to be output as an icon.
The caller must consider the printability of icons.
symbol
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = column contents are to be output as a symbol.
The internal output table column must be a valid symbol character.
The caller must consider the printability of symbols.
Symbols can usually be printed, but may not always be output correctly, depending on the printer configuration.
just (justification)
value set: SPACE, 'R', 'L', 'C'
Only relevant for fields of data type CHAR or NUMC
' ' = default justification for this data type
'R' = right-justified output
'L' = left-justified output
'C' = centered output
The justification of the column header always follows the justification of the columns. Independent justification of the column neader is not possible.
lzero (leading zeros)
value set: SPACE, 'X'
Only relevant for fields of data type NUMC
ALV outputs NUMC fields right-justified without leading zeros by default.
'X' = output with leading zeros
Note: If a NUMC field is output left-justified or centered by FIELDCAT-JUST, leading zeros are output. If the output of leading zeros is suppressed by a Data Dictionary reference ALPHA conversion exit, the output is always left-justified.
no_sign (no +/- sign) Only relevant for value fields
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = value output without +/ sign
no_zero (suppress zeros) Only relevant for value fields
value set: SPACE, 'X' 'X' = suppress zeros
edit_mask (field formatting)
value set: SPACE, template
template = see documentation of WRITE formatting option USING EDIT MASK template
The output conversion conv can be made by template = '== conv'.
Texts
The following text parameters should be specified for program fields without a Data Dictionary reference. The texts are taken from the Data Dictionary for fields with a Data Dictionary reference. If this is not desired, the text parameters can also be specified. The Data Dictionary texts are then ignored. If the user changes the column width interactively, the column header text with the appropriate length is always used. The interactive function 'Optimize column width' takes account of both the field contents and the column headers: if all field contents are shorter than the shortest column header, the column width depends on the column header.
The 'long field label' is also used in display variant definition, sort, etc. popups.
seltext_l (long field label)
seltext_m (medium field label)
seltext_s (short field label)
reptext_ddic (header)
analogous to the Data element maintenance 'Header'
The specified text is not necessarily output in the list, an optimum among all texts is sought.
ddictxt (specify text)
value set: SPACE, 'L', 'M', 'S'
You can specify with values 'L', 'M', and 'S', the keyword that should always be used as column header. If the column width changes, no attempt is made in this case to find an appropriate header for the new output width.
Parameters for program fields without Data Dictionary reference
see also 'Text' parameters
datatype (data type)
value set: SPACE, Data Dictionary data type (CHAR, NUMC,...)
Only relevant for fields without Data Dictionary reference

Others
sp_group (field group key)
value set: SPACE, CHAR(1)
Field group key.
Keys are assigned to group names in the IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS parameter (see also the documentation of the parameter IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS).
When such an assignment is made in the field catalog and in IT_SPECIAL_GROUPS, the fields are grouped correspondingly in the display variant popup.

'X' = When the Report/Report interface is called, the value of this field is passed in the selected interface start record as a selection criterion.
2.7.2. Default
The following entries are usually sufficient for internal table fields with a reference to a field defined in the Data Dictionary :
fieldname
ref_tabname
Notes:
ALV gets the remaining information from the Data Dictionary.
If no relative column position (COL_POS) is specified, the fields are output in the list in the order in which they were added to the field catalog.
REF_FIELDNAME need only be specifid when the name of the internal table field differs from the name of the referred Data Dictionary field.
Information which is explicitly entered in the field catalog is not overwritten by information from the Data Dictionary.
Priority rule:
Entries in the field catalog have priority over differing entries in the Data Dictionary.
The following entries are usually sufficient for internal table fields without a reference to the Data Dictionary (program fields):
fieldname
outputlen
datatype
seltext_s
seltext_m
seltext_l
Notes:
F1 help can be provided for program fields by assigning a data element to the parameter ROLLNAME.
If the parameters SELTEXT_S, SELTEXT_M, SELTEXT_L, and REPTEXT_DDIC contain appropriate field labels, the program field column headers are also adjusted appropriately when the column width changes

Function Module to know the Acc doc no for a Material document.

Dear Friends,
What is the Function Module to know the Acc doc no for a Material document? Please help. Thanks in advance.

RAMAN

Hi Raman,
I am not sure about your requirement,
But i remember when i required the same like you i went to vrpma table to get the account document,
I just did like a blind fold,
as my company does all the billing accounts in the same month, my search criteria was blind.
Also try with MKPF-XBLNR with the VBRK-XBLNR and get VBRK-VBELN
from there goto BSEG.
Thansk & regards,

Find Triggered report name in the function module.

Hi All,
A function module is being called by many Reports say (100). Now the question is, I need to find out the Triggered report name in the function module where I can do required logic change based on the report. I cannot include an import parameter in the function module to capture the Report name, for this solution I need to change 100 reports. Is there any better way to find the Triggered report name in the Function Module?
thanks in advance.

How to findout the Function module for a particular object

Hello friends,
   Related to my thread, there was one thread in the forum,to find out the function module for a particular object.I tried the solution provided my our experts but couldn't got the results.Thats why i am putting this thread again.
I want to find out the function modules used for the particular object, i.e. Production order.
   solution i tried is, first go to T.C SE37, then in function module field put the object name like Production order and enter, than it will show another screen, there also put object name in function module field and than press enter, it will show all the function modules available for that object.
    So could you guys help me out to find out where i am wrong in the process of finding out the function module for a particular object.
                       Plz don't bother abt the point.Helpful answers will definitely get awarded.
                            Thanking you guys for your valuable support till now and hoping to get in future too.

Dear
When the problem is solved please give points too. Otherwise why people will help others, give time and share their valuable knowledge. This will build up self confidence.
If not solved and closing, then mention the difficulties what u exactly looking for. Simpy closing is not enough because who ever is providing solution will not able to know the real problem.
How to give points I believe u already know that and need not explain.
I had seen many times this problem with others too. Even if the problem is totally resolved they give 2 in stead of 10.

Function Module to find the Difference between two times.

Hi All,
Wud you plz let me know the Function Module to find the Difference between two times.
Input Time1( Hours:Minutes) Time2 ( Hours:Minutes)
Need Output in Hours:Minutes only . ( No seconds Needed )
Ex :
Input :
       06:00 to 18:00 Output : 12:00
and 20:00 to 06:00 Output: 10:00 with +ve sign only. No -ve sign.
Thanks,
N.L.Narayana

check this .
data : p_timel like sy-uzeit,
       p_timeh like sy-uzeit,
       diff like sy-uzeit,
       di(8) type c .
       p_timel = '200000'.
       p_timeh = '060000'.
       diff = p_timeh - p_timel.
       concatenate diff+0(2) ':' diff+2(2) into di.
       write:/ di.
also check for this.
       p_timel = '060000'.
       p_timeh = '180000'.
see if this can be implemented in ur code .
or else u can try with Fm L_TO_TIME_DIFF passing startdate enddate starttime endtime with UOM as MIN
hope this helps regards,
vijay

Hi
Please use FM
SD_DATETIME_DIFFERENCE

Function module to get the difference of dates ..

Hi ,
Can somebody pls help me with the function module to get the difference between two dates?
I need to find the difference value and delete records if >1.
Thanks in advance.
Regds,
Leeza.

Leeza,
 When I tested the FM in my Program, it is working!!!!!
 Note that the Two Input Dates are to be in the format of DATS type (Eg: vimimv-dmibeg).
U can want the Day which u have specified in the parameter I_DATUM_BIS (eg: 20050101) to be included for
the calculation , then put X in the parameter I_KZ_INCL_BIS.
Sample Code :
report zkam01.
data:
sav_nlaufz like rf60v-nlaufz,
date1 type vimimv-dmibeg,
date2 type vimimv-dmiend.
date1 = '20050101'.
date2 = '20051001'.
call function 'MONTHS_BETWEEN_TWO_DATES'
 exporting
 i_datum_von = date1
 i_datum_bis = date2
 i_kz_incl_bis = 'X'
 importing
 e_monate = sav_nlaufz.
write:
date1,
/ date2,
/ sav_nlaufz.
Please allot points if the problem is solved.
Thanks
Kam
