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.

Hi,
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

Obsolete Function Modules in ECC 6.0

hi all,
Can anyone provide me alternative function modules or Methods for below mentioned FM.
WS_QUERY
WS_ULDL_PATH
WLK1_CHECK
CARD_CHARACTERISTIC_READ
F4_SEARCH_HELP
WS_EXCEL
Regards,
Anurag

Go to SE37. Enter the name of the obsolete function module - e.g. WS_QUERY
Click on "Function Module Documentation". This will tell you where to find the replacement.
If that doesn't help, look at class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES.

WS_QUERY
POPUP_TO_CONFIRM_STEP
POPUP_TO_CONFIRM_WITH_MESSAGE

Sandeep

here are replacement function modules for the obsolete ones.
award points in case u feel this useful
1. Obsolete Function Module: WS_UPLOAD.
 Replacement FM: GUI_UPLOAD.
Note:
1. If the FM WS_UPLOAD' has file type as ASC, then we can use same file
 type ASC for GUI_UPLOAD also.
2. But if the FM 'WS_UPLOAD' has file type as DAT, we can not use DAT for
'GUI_UPLOAD' as it will give short dump.
 In this case we need use file type as ASC
 and
 HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR = X.
3. If the file name or file type of ws_upload have variables or constants
 Instead of hard coding, then dont use hard code values for gui_upload.
3. The data type of file name always should be of character type for gui_upload
 The file type should be of Type Character and length 10.
4. Always uncomment the exceptions for gui_upload.
5. And also uncomment the code inside IF SY-SUBRC <> 0. and ENDIF after
 gui_upload if the customer has not handled any exception in 46c version.
 If there is any code inside IF SY-SUBRC <> 0 and ENDIF for ws_upload in 46c
 version, Please use the same code in ECC also after gui_upload.

Obsolete function module in ECC6 - what to use instead of that

I have to upgrade from SAP 4.7 to ECC6 .
Some obsolete function module are as follows:
ADDRESS_MAINTAIN
ADDRESS_UPDATE_OLD
DD_PR_REDEFINE
GRAPH_DIALOG
HELPSCREEN_NA_CREATE
Can anybody assist me which function module to use in place of this function module or which class methods to be used instead of these function modules ?
Thanks...

Hi Deepak,
For ADDRESS_MAINTAIN you can go this way for now.

          not_found         = 4.
we haven't found any replacement for this. so doing it this way.
ADDRESS_UPDATE_OLD - No Replacement for this.
DD_PR_REDEFINE - No Replacement for this.
GRAPH_DIALOG - No Replacement for this.
All the Above 3 FMs are still being used in ECC standard programs.
Thanks,
Sai

Obsolete Function Modules in ERP6.0

Hi Experts,
We are upgrading to ERP6.0 Unicode. We have lots of obsolete function modules (other than WS_UPLOAD/UPLOAD/WS_DOWNLOAD/DOWNLOAD). These are marked as obsolete by SAP. Now what will happen if we don't replace them with new function modules and continue with the existing ones? Will it create problems in the new system?
Regards,
Ravikanth

Obsolete function modules in 4.7

Hi can any one pls tell /state me the function modules that are obsolete in 4.7 and let me know the replacement of this function module...........
TZ_SYSTEM_TO_LOCAL,TZ_LOCAL_TO_GLOBAL.
Can any one please list the function modules and the T-CODES that are obsolete.....

Hi Madan,
You should get a repository of 4.7 and your target version(Higher) and then write a small program to check if its existing or not? Take I/P's from tables TFDIR for Function Modules and TSTC for Transaction Code.
Reward if Useful.
