Rfc : im unable to call a local function module

I was trying to write a simple rfc program to make a function call locally using the destination parameter as none and its throwing some error. I dont understand the problem, because the help on rfc says that using none makes it goto the gateway and call the function module.

What is the error? If you want to call locally, simply do not give the DESTINATION keyword, call it like any other function module.

Calling an ABAP function module

Hi friends,
I am developing an application in EP6 SP2 using JSPDynPage from which, want to call an ABAP function module that returns table and show the values from this table in this application.
I went thru various blogs and APIs. I am confused between SAP JCO, JCO client service and connector framework. Do u have any documentation on how to connect to R3 systems and call a function module, retrieve results etc.
Regards,
Nilz

JCo is the point to start. This gives you low level access to all rfc functions. Everything else (accept BSP and Web dynpro) are just layers of encapsulation around the low level JCo function.
The steps are always like this:
call the sap system for rfc login
prepare data areas and call in java
call the rfc in the R/3 system
handle exceptions
logoff and free ressource
continue with data obtained in R/3
There is a lot of material around jco. One book that is fairly ok is :
SAP Interface Programming
A comprehensive reference for RFC, BAPI, and JCo programming
J. Meiners, W. Nüßer
SAP PRESS ISBN 1-59229-034-5
This helps you navigate through the wealth of information also at SDN

Can a SQL Server stored procedure call an SAP function module?

Can a SQL Server stored procedure call an SAP function module.? The stored procedure will be called via a trigger when data records are added to a Z table.

You have two options:
- the other software can use the RFC SDK and call directly in the system
- the other software can use a database connect

Formal error: Invalid calling sequence for function modules

Hi All,
I have developed a function module for FQEVENT 620 Payment: Transfer Line Items for Clearing.
The clearing works fine.
After clearing the open items i need to post an FI-CA Document(BAPI : BAPI_CTRACDOCUMENT_CREATE) for each open item(cleared item)
I have used the bapi : BAPI_CTRACDOCUMENT_CREATE in the same function module that i have developed for FQEVENT 620 Payment: Transfer Line Items for Clearing.Here i am getting an error "Formal error: Invalid calling sequence for function modules".
So please let me know where i can use this bapi to post fi-ca document.Is there a BAdi or Enhancement Spot where i can use this BAPI or tell me what should i do to overcome this error.
Regards
Venkat

Venkat:
While I am confused about your business process - creating an open item when clearing one seems strange. Look into event 0020 which is called after documents are posted - it may present the opportunity to post process additional documents.

bill.

Multiple call of update function module

Hi Everybody,
I have made implementation to the definition MB_DOCUMENT_BADI( material Document creation).
While executing this BADI I am getting short dum with this error Multiple call of update function module.
Here is the short dump--
In the FORM routine Buchen_Ausfuehren (program SAPMM07M), an error
message was issued by a Business Add-In (BAdI) or function module.
This is not permitted, because it could lead to data
inconsistencies. For this reason, the update of the material
document was also terminated with a termination message (dump).
Note that this message (M7 372) is not the responsible error
message.
Please any body suggest the way forward.
Regards,
Sandeep.

Hi Kiran,
Thanks for the reply.
I have created one implementation to the BADI MB_DOCUMENT_BADI. This badi will hit while creation of material document.I have write the code in method MB_DOCUMENT_BEFORE_UPDATE such that it will act only for certain movement types specially for t-codeMb1a and MB31.
What problem I am facing i have used a error message "MB_DOCUMENT_BEFORE_UPDATE" in this method.If we got the erroe message then we dont need to post the material dcoument,but here problem is that if the material document could not posted then it corrupt the material and when we performing 261/101 we got error message like " Inconsistency between MM and ML for material and plant"
I have used following things like-
1-while updating the customized table using " Commit Work".
2-Call function vb_change_batch for updating the batch and not in update task.
3. Dequeue the table after updating the table.
Will thos things can create any inconsistency to the MM and ML.
Please suggest me uor thoughts.
Thanks
sandeep.

Multiple calls of same function module do NOT initialize variables ?

Hi all,
..so its my fist post here, this is a bit strange problem for me and maybe someone knows whats happening.
So I have in SAP Solution Manager a function module 'Z', which calls a standard SAP class CL_SPROJECT_SOLAR_BASE_REPORT, which in turn calls the standard function module 'SPROJECT_GET_ADMIMP_SCREEN_BP'.
During development, things worked fine, but now I run my Z-Program for more than one instance and even I do all FREE for the Class, apperently the function module SPROJECT_GET_ADMIMP_SCREEN_BP, which is called by the class CL_SPROJECT_SOLAR_BASE_REPORT, does not get it's variables from the global data of the function pool re-initialized, when it is called for the second, 3rd, ... time.
This is a bit strane behavior for me, I would have expected that variables in a function module (or even in the global data of that function pool) get re-initialized each time that function module is called ?
Actually, this is the only function in that function pool.
Well, if not, does anyone has an idea how I can get the variables of this module pool re-initialized between the calls ? More concrete, the global data of function pool SAPLSPROJECT_SOLAR_ADMEVAL_BP define:
DATA: g_v_with_var TYPE char1.
In the function module line 36 (no reference to g_v_with_var, no module call, no changes to g_v_with_var before the IF-statement at all) it is querying:
IF g_v_with_var IS INITIAL.
So this is my problem, the second time I am calling the class (which is 'free'ed and re-created between the calls) which calls this function module the 'g_v_with_var' is not initial and there seems to be no way to have it set to initial again ?
So even thought this is in SolMan, I think the question & problem is a ABAP technical one ?
Any thoughts, help or support would be very much appreciated,
thank so much,
Frank

Hi Mae,
..thanks a lot for your fast reply, unfortunately there is only one function and no functions or forms at all for initializing. The variable I am fighting with is g_v_with_var and that is referenced only 4 times in the whole function pool:
Global Data:   101 DATA: g_v_with_var TYPE char1.
Function Module SPROJECT_GET_ADMIMP_SCREEN_BP (which is the only function module):
    36   IF g_v_with_var IS INITIAL.
   127       g_v_with_var = airep_true.
   193         CLEAR g_v_with_var.
If in line 36 g_v_with_var is 'X', which it is always after the first call, the function will exit with an exception, so line 193 to clear it will actually never be executed...and it is not cleared the next time the function module is called, so you never get back to have the function run...
All the best,
Frank

Call report in function module

Hi All,
Please tell me how to call report in function module. i want input parameters of function module with same selection screen parameters of report. please tell to me .if possible provide the code.
Thanks,
Raju.

Hi Kumar,
Incorporate the below logic in the FM that you have developed.
SUBMIT zreport WITH s_vbeln IN t_saleorder_range
WITH p_file EQ w_file
AND RETURN.
Note: Here, t_salerder_range is an internal table of type range. It has four fields just like selection-options...SIGN,OPTION, LOW and HIGH. Whatever the values that you pass here would be taken as the selection screen values for the report that you are calling.
Hope this is helpful
Thanks,

How to detect caller of a function module

Hello,
how is it possible to detect who is calling a function module?
Thanks a lot,
Tanguy Mezzano

Hi, May i know why you need the caller name. If suppose you want to know currently who is executing the function. then you can check the sy-uname inside the calling program or function module that will have. If you want to know from another program then you need to pass some parameter id in side the function module and check your second program for the parameter id having any value.
Thanks.

Call BEx from function modules.

I'm trying to run BEx (Excel) from an abap Exit. Using the debugger I have observed that it is necessary to call the rsah_launch_excel function module passing some parameter (i.e. workbook id) but don't know if it is necessary to copy and modify the called program ( RRMX_START_EXCEL).
Any suggestion about the coding will be well appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

RFC CALL canu00B4t execute Functions module ??

Hello everybody,
I have a problem with a Function module. The function module should open an link (it´s a Link of a Webdynpro Application).
I have the following constellation.
Bex Analyzer execute a RFC Call to open/execute the Function module. The Function module should open a URL (Webdynpro Application), but it doesn´t work.
I don´t know why. The Connection of the RFC Call is ok. I have tested the RFC with any Object´s and it works (He "answered").
What ist wrong in the Function Module, why can´t the FM open the URL??!
Simple Code of Function Module
call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute
exporting
document = 'URL'
exceptions
others = 1.
Endfunction.
A other test
*CALL FUNCTION 'PRGN_GENER_EXECUTE_URL'
*EXPORTING
*NODE_DATA = 'url'.
The VBA Code for RFC
Sub Login()
Dim functionCtrl As Object
Dim sapConnection As Object
Dim theFunc As Object
Dim sReturn As Boolean
Dim l_export As String
Dim objQueryTab As Variant
Set functionCtrl = CreateObject("SAP.Functions")
Set sapConnection = functionCtrl.Connection

sapConnection.user = "xy"
sapConnection.Language = ".."
sapConnection.SystemNumber = "xy"

MsgBox "Keine Verbindung"
Else
Set theFunc = functionCtrl.Add("SS_RFC_URL_TEST")

theFunc.Exports("I_PAR") = objQueryTab
sReturn = theFunc.call
If sReturn = True Then
objQueryTab = theFunc.Imports("E_PAR")
End If
sapConnection.logoff
End If
End Sub
>E_PAR is the Exportparameter of the Function module
>I_PAR is the Importparameter of the Function module

Hi, I have a similar situation. Within VBA I am calling the RFC 'RFC_CALCULATE_TAXES_DOC'. This RFC is used to communicate with external tax software like Taxware; it gets applicable tax rates, amounts, etc. based on tax jurisdiction code and other data. The RFC is remote-enabled (has to be to talk to Taxware).
This RFC requires an RFC Destination in order to work. Within VBA, I have not been able to figure out the syntax required to enter the Destination name. I saw Shreeram's post saying to use CALL FUNCTION 'PRGN_GENER_EXECUTE_URL' DESTINATION <RFC Destination Name>. However, this looks like ABAP syntax and not VBA syntax.
Does anybody know if this is possible within VBA? Sounds like it's not but wanted to double-check.
Thanks!!

Unable to send table to function module using RFC

Hi all,
I'm trying to send a table from XI to a function module using RFC. I tested the process first using indivdual parameters. At this point there were no problems. Now I changed the import parameter of
the FM into a table and imported the changes into XI. I changed the Message mapping and tested it with multiple records. When I run the process XI calls the FM but the FM doesn't receive any data. I tested this by puting a break-point in the FM. There are no errors in the XML Messages Monitor. I found this message in the Communication Channel Monitoring:
Short Log:
Server 0 10_39293 Receiver channel 'CC_BackendIn' for party '', service 'BS_Backend' (internal name 'RfcClient[CC_BackendIn]')

Any ideas?
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Ivo van Ee

Hi everyone,
thanks for your prompt response! I tested the mapping in XI and didn't find any error here. So I concentrated on the receiver side. There were some communication channels running on the server that were generating errors. I stopped alle the communication channels and started just the two communication channels for this process. This time the table was successfully exported to the function module! Problem solved. Still not sure what caused the problem in the first place, but everything is working fine now.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Ivo

Calling r/3 function module from crm using rfc

Dear SDN Members,
I'm given a task to write a method on CRM side which sets the equipment status to "lost" in ABAON transaction on R/3 side. There is a function module on r/3 side which is RFC enabled and it will set the stuatus to LOST when we call that from CRM. This RFC fm is not available on CRM side, so I cannot used Pattern. I'm very new to abap and when i've gone through abap help I got the syntax which i've write with destination parameter. But I'm really not understanding how to pass Lost status to that fm.
Here-with I put the coding so far i've done on crm side and also the rfc fm coding aswell on r/3 side.
Should any one need for more info please do let me know to my yahoo ID:
[email protected]. I would be pleased to provide you the same.
The coding on crm side to call the r/3 fm through rfc follows here..
