Regarding function modules return parameters

hi experts,
thnx in advance
i have requirement to make a rfc enabled function mudule, that will return some messages mat be error or information , such as 'read is implausible in sap-isu' etc, so how can make the export parameters of this fm, so that it return such mesages thru export parameters but not thru exceptions
pls help

either you can create a string table as return parameter which will hold your messages, then you can display them.
or a better method can be as seen in BAPIs..
a table of type BAPIRETURN.
just goto SE37, open any BAPI (BAPI* - then F4).
see in the table of type BAPIRETURN.
here you can pass the message details ... and use them from where you have called it.

Web Services from ABAP function modules return values- leading zeros

I am using several web services from SAP CRM (5.0) that were created from Function modules ( I am assuming that that they are in ABAP).
I can call the web services fine and they work as expected, but I am seeing a lot of leading zeros in the return values of fields in tables from the Web service.
The ABAP ers are telling me that they cannot see the leading zeros.
So my question is where these are appended to the values in the whole process. When I execute the Function Module in SAP CRM from transaction SE37 I can see the leading zeros. So I think that this is something that has to be handled by the ABAP ers and not in the client consuming the web service.
Are the functions in SAP CRM that can remove leading zeros for fields in a table (that is an export parameter?)
Jawahar

Hello Jawahar
If you run your (RFC-enabled) function modules using the SAP-GUI (i.e. in dialog) then the GUI automatically replaces leading zero when the function module returns any data. However, calling the same function module remotely you will always see these leading zeros.
These so-called conversion exits are defined as attribute of domains in the ABAP dictionary. If the function module used for the WebService is a standard fm then you have little chances to get rid of the leading zero. Perhaps the WebService has some attribute to suppress conversion exits or activate them when retrieving the data.

Function Module TABLES parameters

Hi All,
I want to pass my internal table to a function module but when I try to access the componenbts of the table it is giving me syntax error. Is it required that I should create DDIC structure for this? Is there any other option?
I have declared the internal table using types. And in function module tables parameters just declared internal table.
Regards,
Dilip

Hi
In the function
Say import parameter is TAB ( with no type definition )
From program you pass an internal table ITAB .
You don't need to define TAB in your function.
In the code you can diretcly use
LOOP AT TAB.
ENDLOOP.
( At runtime TAB will take the structure of ITAB from program )
Cheers

Authorization check on Function module return values

Hi,
I have a tricky situation. In our BW implementation, many of the FI infoobjects are authorization relevent. One of the objects is 0COSTCENTER. A user has been assigned with authorization profile, in which the user is authorised for COST CENTER = A* and #. All planning templates were working nice.
We were on SP 12 earlier, now we upgraded to SP 20. Now came a issue, the user gets error that user is not authroised for the data. After our analysis, we found nothing wrong as such, so contacted SAP. They came back with a root cause
In my planning function, an ABAP function module is used. The function module returns a COSTCENTER value. This return value is then assigned to a variable, this variable is of type 0COSTCENTER.
SAP said there was a bug in their own design. The bug was, if the cost center value is directly used in planning function for other calculations, it will throw an authorization error. But, if the COST CENTEr value is given to a variable and that variable is used for other calculations, it works fine. Thats why it worked for us earlier.
Now, they have removed that bug, so variables are also checked against authorizations and they said we need to either change the code or give * for the COST CENTER authorization.
So we have a problem. It is not straight forward to give * for COSTCENTER in FI BW implementation. SAP theory is that they cannot say which value the functional module will return. So they will check against ALL the values for COSTCENTER but not the authorised values.
Has anyone seen this issue before? is it only specific to planning function or its just ABAP concept? Any suggesations to come out this problem?

Bindu, thanks,
The error is coming at the program compile level itself i.e. before executing the planning group itself. As per the F1 help on forumla editor and from their support, the system reads all the reference data, So when it sees the function module and its export parameter, it captures all the data for COST CENTER as reference data.
Thus even I am sure that the return value will be always authorized, the reference data is checked for the full authorization. Thus its failing

Dought regarding Function module

Hi ,
I have small dought regarding fm....
since Read_text is a function module can it be changed to RFC , since i need to retrive data from sap to informatica .
since some of the long text are also need to retrived to a non sap system .
if i creat a zread _text as a RFC .
will this work .am i in the right path ,need ur advice on the same .
if its right what are the steps needs to be followed .to create a zread_text
Thanks ,
VInay .

Create a new function module in SE37, e.g. Z_RFC_READ_TEXT and tick that it is RFC enabled. The Import, Export, and Tables parameters should mirror those in READ_TEXT, but you might like to add another table so you can return any exception messages to the caller (e.g. "OT_RETURN" with a structure like BAPIRET2)... you might also have local standard for naming parameters in custom code which you may need to follow. Inside your "Z" function module you just call 'READ_TEXT' using the parameters of the "Z" function. Any exceptions from 'READ_TEXT' should be added into OT_RETURN so that the external caller can be advised of the problem.

Regarding Function Module AC_DOCUMENT_RECORD

Hi All,
I am working on one Report in which I am calling the function module
AC_DOCUMENT_RECORD. I am Exporting values for all the parameters to this function except
I_AWSYS, I_AWTYP_INCL,I_AWTYP_EXCL.
These parameters will be treated as Default to SPACE.
Can anyone please tell me what these parameters are and what type of value or what value shall
I Export to these Parameters.
Regards,

Dear Rishi,
All these three parameters are optional. You can comment them if you do not want to pass any data. The system would treat them as SPACE.
I_AWSYS - Logical System (Character Type of Length 10: ACCHD-AWSYS)
I_AWTYP_INCL - Reference procedure (Character Type of Length 5 :ACCHD-AWTYP)

ABAP Programing help regarding function modules coding

Hi,
i'm currently creating a function module that retrieve a number from a table and add one to it and return back the value to the table.
the codes are as follow:
FUNCTION ZFM_NUMBER
" * " Local Interface:
" EXPORTING
"      VALUE (ZZNUMBER) TYPE ZNUMBER
"      VALUE (ZENUMBER) TYPE ZNUMBER
SELECT ZNUMBER FROM ZTAB_NUM into ZZNUMBER.
END SELECT.
ZENUMBER = ZZNUMBER + 1.
UPDATE ZTAB_NUM SET ZNUMBER = ZENUMBER WHERE ZNUMBER = ZZNUMBER.
END FUNCTION.
this function module works finely, but now i need to concatenate the number with the year to store it into another table.
i know something about the sysdatum where i select only the first 4 characters...but i'm not sure how could i do that?
do i need to create another function module to call the above function module and concatenate it with the year?
or i just need to continue the codes in the same function module?
and how should i code it?
i'm very new to abap coding and i could'nt get help from anyone in my team. your help is very much appreciated!!!
Thanks,
leesyy

hi you can do it in the same function module.
SELECT ZNUMBER FROM ZTAB_NUM into ZZNUMBER.
END SELECT.
instead of the above statement use the following statement, it improves performance of your program
SELECT single ZNUMBER FROM ZTAB_NUM into ZZNUMBER.
in the above statement you can also specify some where condition
ZENUMBER = ZZNUMBER + 1.
UPDATE ZTAB_NUM SET ZNUMBER = ZENUMBER WHERE ZNUMBER = ZZNUMBER.
data: var_date type sy-datum,
      var_yyyy(4) type c,
      var_numyear(10) type c.
var_date = sy-datum.
var_yyyy = var_date+0(4).
concatenate ZENUMBER var_yyyy into var_numyear.
UPDATE ZTAB_NUMyear SET ZNUMyear = var_numyear WHERE ZNUMBER = ZZNUMBER.

Regarding Function Module for Locking ( enque)

Hi,
I am facing a Problem that is when iam running Call transaction one popup is coming because some other user currently editing that Tcode at that time i need to lock tcode using enque specially for table . If suppose some other user editing at that time it will shoe that popup and it will exit from their with out doing any other process For that i need Function module for Lock and Delock.
thanks in advance,
murali krishna.

So in this example, I am doing a loop and check for a lock, if I don't get one, I wait for 5 seconds, this loop continues untill 30 seconds, no lock then it quits and gives message.
report zrich_0001.
data: counter type i.
parameters: p_equnr type equi-equnr.
start-of-selection.
clear counter.
do.
Exhausted, no luch in getting a lock, get of of DO loop.
    if counter > 6.
      sy-subrc = 1.
      exit.
    endif.
Try for lock
    call function 'ENQUEUE_EIEQUI'
      exporting
        mode_equi            = 'E'
        mandt                = sy-mandt
        equnr                = p_equnr
   _wait                = 'X'
      exceptions
        foreign_lock         = 1
        system_failure       = 2
        others               = 3.
Got a lock, get out of DO loop.
   if sy-subrc = 0.
      exit.
    endif.
Still here? Then wait another 5 seconds
    wait up to 5 seconds.
    counter = counter + 1.
enddo.
Report status
case sy-subrc.
    when 0.
      message s001(00) with 'Lock could not be established'.
    when 1.
      message i001(00) with 'Lock could not be established'.
endcase.

Functional module table parameters values not getting displayed in Java sys

Hi,
We are calling the Table parameter through Java code from functional
module ZCRM_ICSS_PROJ_CUST_USR is not giving any rows value .If I execute
the same functional module with passing the import parameter value User
id: MLDL010 its giving value in CRM.
I am checking Function module( Remote enabled ) in Debugging mode,
before displaying values it is raising message like
SY-MSGNR - 005
SY-MSGTY - CRM_LINK
in T100 Table
SPRSL : EN
ARBGB : CRM_LINK
MSGNR : 005
TEXT :'No Links corresponding to the specified data could be determined'
Is that related to any communication problem CRM & JAVA ICSS System ?
Regards,
Pavan.

The message in simple English just means that "You are doing something really bad" !!! It is absolutely not the communication problem, but understanding problem.
Though you may be executing the same function using SE37 or in the webshop application through JCo, the runtime context is different and without knowing what exactly your Z rfc is doing, it is very difficult to help. To start with, the userid - that is who is running the RFC is different in both situations. In SE37, it is the logon user and in the web, depending upon whether the connection is stateless or stateful, it could be the anonymous ICSS user or the logged in user. Here again, if you have used UME, it is the user id and if you have used ALIAS user, then it is the alias user id. This is just an example. Your runtime context can be different due to many other reasons too.
So, to make this simpler - what is that you are trying to do?
BTW, try not to create multiple threads for the same issue..

Hello Suresh,
What do you mean by not going?
If you are trying to do an F5 at the function call, the debugger is not "enter" into the FM. This is because at this point the function call is registered but the FM is not executed.
Update FM calls registered in a particular LUW are executed(in a special "UPD" workprocess) when there is a COMMIT encountered(may be explicit or implicit).
Did you read the online help on [Update Debugging|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW70EHP1core/helpdata/en/c6/617d0ce68c11d2b2ab080009b43351/content.htm] & [Breakpoint behaviour during Update Debugging|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW70EHP1core/helpdata/en/c6/617cbee68c11d2b2ab080009b43351/content.htm]?
