Trigger a waiting ABAP program from a User Exit of CO01

Hi all,
   We would like to launch a ABAP program from a User Exit (EXIT_SAPLCOZV_001) of CO01, this ABAP program has a special characteristic: using Function Module RFC_PING_AND_WAIT, so this program will be existing until terminating event coming.
    Our purpose is terminate CO01 normally before finishing of ABAP program. We don't know if it's possible?
    Actually:
       1. when we use SUBMIT ..., the process will stop CO01 (stop not normally) and then launch ABAP program. => This is not suitable for our purpose.
       2. when we use SUBMIT ... and RETURN, CO01 will wait for finishing of ABAP program => This is not suitable for our purpose too, because we wish CO01 terminated normally when ABAP program is still existing and waiting for its terminating event.
Do you have a solution that is suitable for our purpose, could you please help us?
(The context is below:
Time: Begin-->CO finished> ABAP finished-->
   Launch CO01 --> Call User Exit --> Call ABAP program for waiting --> CO01 saved normally.
> ABAP program still waiting ---> waiting for terminating event
Thanks a lot,
Vinh Vo

Hi,
Try with the function module BP_EVENT_RAISE, it takes eventid, and eventparm as import parameters in the User exit.
1) With Eventid, you create a background job of the ABAP program and schedule it. Eventparm can be the Production order number.
2) So when ever the Event is triggered the FM gets triggered and which in turn run the ABAP program, so the foreground the CO01 transaction runs without waiting for the ABAP program to complete.

ABAP program error for user EXIT

Hi, I wrote code in EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001
When check and active it there were no syntax errors but when go rsa3 and check it gives an error at the follwing line
it_mcekpo[] = c_t_data[].

Call ABAP program from Unix script passing dynamic filename

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to call an ABAP program from a Unix script passing a dynamic filename to the ABAP program?
We are receiving a file from an external company and on receipt of the file want to call an ABAP program passing the filename. The filename is made up of File ID, Date and Time which we need to read in the ABAP program. We usually use Events to trigger a program which is fine when the filename if static however since this filename will be dynamic we cannot do this. In addition we cannot just rename the file to a static name in the Unix script as we need to know the value of the date and time from the file ID in the ABAP program. I can change the ABAP program to check our /in directory for a Filename that starts with the fixed File ID however I thought there must be a better way of doing this. We want the external company to put this information in a file header record but they don't want to change the file contents. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sinead.

You could follow the following method
1.Let the external file reside in the SAP application layer in a defined path e.g. /usr/sap/tmp/interface/working/
2.Write an ABAP program which will include the following steps:-
i) read all files in the file path using function module EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING
ii) Read the data from files existing in the directory using OPEN_DATASET statement
iii) After the files have been read move the files to another directory e.g. /usr/sap/tmp/interface/backup/ or you can delete the file.
3.Schedule this program to be executed depending on the frequency of the external file being generated.

Startrfc - SAP utility to invoke ABAP programs from External systems

We have used the startrfc uitlity that comes along with the SAP Presentation CD. This is bundled with the SAP RFC SDK kit. The startrfc utility can be used to invoke ABAP programs from external systems or servers.
When using the startrfc from the SAP server using the parameters
startrfc -h 10.60.0.31 -s 01 -c 100 -u USERNAME -p PASS -F <Function Module> -E TPPARAM=\usr\sap\trans\bin\tp_domain_<SID>.PFL -T LIST,300,w=list.txt
the desired results are achieved.
However when using the same startrfc with the exact parameters from another server we get the message " Incorrect user or password". If we use the SAP GUI from this server to connect to the SAP server using the same username and password we are able to connect to the SAP system.
Has anyone encountered any similar issues with Startrfc? Any suggestion will be appreciated.
Thanks,
~Nilesh

Hi NIlesh,
Did you check that the password and user ID entered are in capita letters?
Thanks and Regards,

Removing or destroying an ABAP program from memory

Hello!
Is there a command to kill, unload, remove or destroy a previously called ABAP program from memory? Let me explain what I'm trying to do:
I'm doing some WM developments and I use the function L_TO_CONFIRM to confirm transfer orders. This function belongs to function group L03B (program SAPLL03B) and eventually it makes external calls to subroutines belonging to program SAPML03T.
If my Z program calls this funcion, the SAPLL03B program is responsible for loading SAPML03T into memory and everything works fine. The loaded programs list (on the debugging menu) are like this:
No     Program          Group with
52     SAPLL03B
78     SAPML03T      52
This is also what I get if testing L_TO_CONFIRM from SE37, where it also works.
But I wanted to reuse some subroutines from SAPML03T on my Z program, so I call something like this:
PERFORM set_quit_icon(sapml03t) ...
This call happens before the function call, so SAPML03T gets loaded by my Z program first, and stays on the memory. The list of loaded programs then looks like this:
No     Program          Grouped with
1     ZWMO_023
27     SAPML03T       1
So after calling the external subroutine in SAPML03T, I do some more coding and finally call the function L_TO_CONFIRM. Inside this call, my list looks like:
No     Program          Group
1     ZWMO_023 => My Z program
27     SAPML03T       1
28     SAPLL03B
So SAPML03T is grouped with my Z program and not SAPLL03B as it would be if I hadn't called the external subroutine first.
Now, the problem:
Since SAPML03T and SAPLL03B apparently share some global data (at least global workarea/table LTAK), in a normal call (SAPML03T)LTAK gets filled by a select statement and instantly (and somewhat inexplicable from what I new until now) (SAPLL03B)LTAK also gets filled by the same data. Well, I've only seen stuff like this with field-symbols but this is not the case. I would bet this two workareas would always be in fact two different workareas, but during the straight function call they are not. They are the same (I wish I could find their pointer addresses (like C++ stuff) to prove they were the same, but I couldn't). But if I call the external subroutine first and SAPML03T gets loaded, then I do have two different LTAKs and that's where I have problems, because L_TO_CONFIRM was coded considering this single workarea thing and when I have two, it doesn't work.

Yes, I tought about that.
As a matter of fact, just last week we had another global memory issue in a costing user-exit and we tried solving it with a STARTING NEW TASK. This initialy solved our problem, but this command leads to the opening of a new gui session, and when running this cost calculation procedure in the background, a short dump COMMUNICATION FAILURE was raised, probably because of the lack of a SAP GUI link. We then used DESTINATION 'NONE' and this solved the problem (I think it also opens a new LUW).
Also my WM problem is on a Z application that will be running under SAP Console, and I don't think opening a new GUI session with STARTING NEW TASK under SAP Console will work. I should try it anyway. - edited: I just remebered I did this a couple years go and it works
I could use DESTINIATION 'NONE' in this case too, since the funcion module is RFC-enabled already. There are a few ways to solve the problem (which is already solved by the way). My main question still is about removing a whole program from SAP memory through ABAP commands.
Thank you very much!

Calling ABAP Program from a Process Chain

I am calling an ABAP Program from Process Chain by adding a Process Type u201CABAP Programu201D,
My ABAP program writes lots of information using write statements.
I looked in Process Chain Log; I do not see output from Write statement. I am pretty sure my write statements were executed. I also looked in SM37 job log. I do not see any more information.
Where to see the output generated from ABAP.
Thanks.

Hi,
First find out where your ABAP program the data written.You need to write it into and spool then only you can see it.
Transaction SP01, you can use the FM 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS' in your abap program to write to spool.
Thanks,
Ravi

Call ABAP program from a Feature - PE03

We are in process of upgrading from 4.6 C to ECC 6.0. One feature (CSTV1) will not activate because there is a limit on generated programs to under 10,000 ABAP statements. SAP told me to call an ABAP program from the feature to reduce the number of ABAP statements in the generated program. Has anyone created a feature that called an ABAP program? I searched SAP help and I can't find any information about calling a ABAP program.
Thanks in advance,
Mark Ashabraner

Hi Mark,
You can try it this way.. Get the name of the ABAP Program generated by the feature from its attributes. it will be something like '1PAPA/FEAT020Z0106'...May be you can change this program ie put a substantial chunk of this code in a subroutine in another program & call that with a PERFORM from this Program..

Call ABAP Program from outside SAP

Hi all,
How can I call an ABAP program from outside SAP, for example from a C++ executable, a .NET assembly or a JAVA package ? Are their "adapters" provided by SAP for this ?
Angela

Hi Angela,
as mho already stated:
For external connections to ABAP, the sap-proprietary "remote function call (RFC)" is a common way.
SAP delivers an RFC-library for this, and for some development environments SAP even offers a connector on top of this library to make connectivity more easy (SAP Java Connector, SAP Business Connector, SAP Connector for Microsoft .Net). An RFC is always starting function modules in ABAP, not ABAP programs, and these function modules need the attribute "remote-enabled".
(Remark: in the context of SAP NetWeaver Process Integration, SAP offers adapters for connectivity, also for ABAP systems.)
For ABAP systems on basis code line 6.20 and above, the remote-enabled function modules can externally be used as web services.
Information on RFC can be found in the SAP Help Portal http://www.help.sap.com, e.g. [RFC Call - Example Program|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3d/733760ccb411d2b4550060941936e3/frameset.htm]. A search in SDN provides links to the Help Portal as well.

Is it safe/okay to use RSNAST00 program in a user-exit?

Hi Experts,
I got a business requirement and its:
After SAVEing the sales order......by using the user-exit USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT I have to trigger custom IDOC (currently its in the system and using for some other application) outbound direction to XYZ logical system.
But, the functional spec is asking me to to use RSNAST00 program in the above said user-exit.
So pls clarify,
1) Is it safe to use this RSNAST00 program in the user-exits?
2) If so, Wht is the best/safest approach to use it? is it by using SUBMIT AND RETURN statement? or do we have any other?
3) Actually, guess this is not good approach (achieving via ABAP workbench/triggering IDOC outbound by custom code of user-exit) to meet this functionality.......its a configuration task need to done by functional guy.

Thank you Vinod.
If thats the ONLY concern, then I can write a seperate FM, where in I will use SUBMIT RSNAST00 AND RETURN statements, and I will call this FM in a SEPERATE / BACKGROUND TASK, which works in a seperate LWU.
Pls. shade some light
Thank you

Starting a GP from a User Exit?

Hi all,
How do I start a GP from a user exit?
The scenario is like this: when a notification is created in SAP (transaction QM01), it should trigger the GP.
Thank you very much,
