Introduction

Function modules (or FMs, as we’ll often refer to them throughout the book) are
templates that can be used and re-used within ABAP code in order to perform spe-
cific tasks. Instead of writing code to perform a certain functionality every time
that functionality is needed, programmers can simply call a function module tem-
plate within the logic. Then the programmer needs only to fill out the template
with the details that are specific to his particular program, and the functionality is
executed.

For example, a common functionality required in an ABAP program is the need to

convert a value from an internal format (how the backend SAP system stores the
value) to an external format (how the user should view the value). If this function-
ality is required, there is no need for programmers to write a separate program ev-
ery time they need it; rather, they can simply call a function module and supply
the necessary details that control how the value should be converted.

The most efficient programmers are those who have a commanding knowledge of
function modules, which can save the time of writing unnecessary custom code.
However, with about 7,000 function modules provided and released by SAP, un-
derstanding all of these FMs isn’t an easy task.

This book is your guide to the most commonly used FMs in direct programming
activities. We’ve also included common FMs that are related to SAP functionality
but are used in the background. For example, a user may receive an error, and the
error root cause is the FM executed in the background. Additionally, SAP uses FMs
in its standard delivered transactions. A user might want to redesign and custom-
ize those functionalities with some additional options and might need to use an
FM.

During our research for the book, we created, analyzed, and worked on a list of
thousands of released FMs, as well as some very common but not released FMs.
Based on our research, this book names and describes the most commonly used
FMs from that list of thousands, which we identified by searching where-used lists

35
850.book Seite 36 Dienstag, 8. Oktober 2013 5:16 17

Introduction

for each FM, as well as extensive help and Google searches. Our goal was to pro-
vide an invaluable reference for all those who work in ABAP development.

Note

Although you can use unreleased FMs in your programming, SAP offers no guarantee
that it will support these FMs in the future or that these FMs are correct. You can go to
a FM’s ATTRIBUTE tab via Transaction SE37 to see if the FM is released.

Structure of the Book

Based on the functionality of the FMs we’ve included, we’ve structured this book
to make it very easy to understand. You can search by FM name in the index or
table of contents, as well as by key word for what the FM accomplishes or works
with. This book contains 15 parts, each of which are created and based on different
functionalities and different areas in the SAP system. You may find that some FMs
are part of a larger sequence or process and must be used chronologically in order
to complete a task. In these cases, the first FM used in the process will contain a
list of or mention the other FMs that are used sequentially.

This book has been structured to be as user- and reader-friendly as possible. Each
FM is first explained in general terms and then defined with an example to help
you understand when, where, and why you can use that FM. Some of the FMs will
also contain figures to show how you can use the FM and what results you can ex-
pect from the FM call.

We’ll now discuss the different parts of this book.

Part I
Part I focuses on the FMs associated with systems. “System” here refers to SAP ERP
or SAP NetWeaver systems. This part deals with more of the Basis-related opera-
tions such as calling a new transaction, calling SAP NetWeaver from legacy sys-
tems, such as Java or Visual Basic (VB), or calling from an FTP server or a remote
location. This part also provides you with the FMs related to IP addresses, user au-
thorizations, login and logoff of the user in the system, calling a transaction in an-
other window, and so on.

Introduction

Part II
This part focuses on the ABAP Data Dictionary. This is the central repository of
ABAP, which describes and manages all of the data definitions used in the ABAP
system and the database. ABAP Data Dictionary supports the definition of user-de-
fined types, such as data elements, structures, and table types. These types are used
in the ABAP processors and programs. It also defines the structure of database ob-
jects, such as tables, views, and indexes. These database objects are automatically
created in the underlying database with the definition of the ABAP Data Dictionary
when the objects are activated. It also provides editing tools such as search help
and lock objects.

Part III
This part includes FMs that are related to conversions of values from one format
to another, such as from character to float, from one SI unit to another, from spool
to PDF, and so on. FMs related to date, time, unit of measure, round off, and so
on are also covered in this part. This part also includes CONVERSION_EXIT FMs,
which are used to convert the SAP internal format to the user output format and
vice versa.

Part IV
This part includes FMs related to Batch Data Communication (BDC), ABAP List
Viewer (ALV), report programming, and screen programming. Report and screen
(dialog or module pool) programming are the main crux of the ABAP language. Re-
ports are the executable programs that mainly deal with reporting; that is, fetching
the data from the database, processing it, and displaying the results. Results are dis-
played by ALV. This part defines various FMs such as those for calling an ALV, cre-
ating a field catalog for ALV, calling the BDC, reading and displaying the screen
values, and so on.

Part V
This part focuses on FMs related to form printing. SAP’s first form technology was
SAPscript. In release 4.6, SAP introduced Smart Forms, which eased the creation
of form output by allowing modeling of logic and output using graphical tools. In
release 6.40, SAP introduced SAP Interactive Forms by Adobe, where the graphical
editor was much easier to use, provided many more functionalities, and rendered
output exactly as designed in the editor (PDF). This part contains the FMs used to
call the Smart Forms or Adobe Interactive Forms; reading, saving, and updating
the SAPscript texts; and so on.

Introduction

Part VI
This part contains various functions such as archives, number ranges, texts, and
strings that you’ll use while developing your programs. You’ll use archives to store
the old data and information (which isn’t in use) in your secondary storage so that
you free the current memory for usage while still being able to refer to the infor-
mation whenever required.

Database records of the commercial objects such as purchase documents, sales doc-
uments, addresses, and so on are uniquely identified by a number or an ID. Num-
ber ranges assign the next available numbers to these commercial object database
records and help provide unique identification. This part also contains FMs for text
and string operations such as splitting the text based on some separator, concate-
nating strings, and so on.

Part VII
This part contains the FMs related to frontend services and Microsoft Office inte-
gration. Frontend services contain the FMs related to SAP GUI frontends such as
GUI_DOWNLOAD, which downloads the FMs to your computer, and GUI_UP-
LOAD, which uploads the FMs.

Office integration deals with the FMs related to Microsoft Office features such as
opening the file in Word and Excel.

Part VIII
An Intermediate Document (IDoc) is the data container used to transfer data be-
tween two systems. Application Link Enabling (ALE) and Electronic Data Inter-
change (EDI) are used for exchanging business data between different systems.
Data is distributed through ALE when you want to communicate from one SAP
system to one or more other (mostly SAP) systems. ALE transfers the data in IDoc
format and uses the tRFC (transactional RFC) method for data transfer. EDI, on the
other hand, is generally used if you want to transfer business application docu-
ment with the external partner system like vendor or customer. This part focuses
on the ALE, EDI, and IDoc FMs; that is, FMs used to send IDoc data from one sys-
tem to another.

Part IX
This part contains the FMs related to SAP users and their authorizations to execute
transactions. Users are maintained in Transaction SU01 (User Master), and data are
saved in user-specific tables, whose names generally start with “USR” such as

38
850.book Seite 39 Dienstag, 8. Oktober 2013 5:16 17

Introduction

USR01, USR02, USR03, and so on. This part contains the FMs that are used to set
user details such as an address, print the address in Smart Forms, and so on. This
part also contains the FM to check whether the user has relevant authorizations to
execute any transaction, to execute any ABAP Data Dictionary table or view, or to
access any file.

Part X
This part contains the FMs related to spools and jobs. A spool request is the docu-
ment for which a print function has been selected and not yet been printed. The
spool system uses the spool request to store the print data temporarily and access
it. An output request is created for the spool request document that outputs the
print data of the spool request to a particular output device (e.g., printer).

SAP background processing automates routine tasks and helps you optimize your
organization’s SAP computing resources. Background processing tells the SAP sys-
tem to run programs for you. It also lets you move long-running or resource-inten-
sive program runs to times when the system load is low. You can delegate the task
of running reports or programs to the system. Background processing isn’t tied up
with the user interaction and dialog screens. This part covers FMs used for creating
a spool request, finding the spool request, opening the job, submitting the job for
background processing, closing the job, and so on.

Part XI
This part deals with communication with the user via messages or popups. Mes-
sage texts (standard or custom) are generally used to provide information, warn-
ing, success, or error details to the user.

This part contains the FMs for creating a message, sending and collecting the mes-
sages for the message handler, and taking user confirmation in popup screens.
Popup screens are used to show the time and date, to display help, and so on.

Part XII
The Transport Management System plays an important role in the development
and customizing environment. All of the development is locked under the task of
the transport in the development system, which is moved to the quality system
and finally to the production system. The Transport Management System admin-
isters and controls the new development, and records the version of the changes
made for a particular program. This part focuses on FMs used in the Transport
Management System.

Introduction

Part XIII
Application logs are used for logging application events. This process is similar to
using a system log where system event information is recorded. The advantage of
an application log is that it’s a system-wide standardized process and is convenient
to analyze. Several application logs can be written at the same time by an applica-
tion. This part defines the FMs related to application logs.

Part XIV
Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs) define the API methods for
SAP business objects. These business object types and their BAPIs are described
and stored in the Business Object Repository (BOR). BAPIs are always remote func-
tion call (RFC) enabled, so they can also be called from external application systems
and other programs. BAPIs are also related to SAP components such as Sales and
Distribution (SD), Materials Management (MM), Production Planning (PP), Quali-
ty Management (QM), Warehouse Management (WM), and so on. This part con-
tains all of the commonly used BAPIs.

Part XV
This part contains miscellaneous FMs that are important and commonly used but
can’t be categorized into any of the preceding parts. Many component-specific
FMs that aren’t BAPIs are covered in this part.

Structure of Each Function Module Entry

Each FM can be defined by its parameters (import, export, changing, tables, and
exceptions). This book describes all of these parameters and uses them in the FM
call. All of these parameters, excluding exceptions, are associated with a data type.
In each FM, we’ve identified each type of parameter with an icon and heading for
easier identification.

I Import
Import parameters are the parameters or values that you pass on to the FM to ex-
ecute it correctly when you’re in an ABAP program. Some of the import parame-
ters are mandatory, and the rest are optional. Some import parameters are defined
with the default values; that is, if you don’t pass any value, then the default values
are automatically passed.

Introduction

X Export
Export parameters contain the results returned from the FM execution.

C Changing
Changing parameters indicate those parameters whose value is changed in the FM.
These parameters can be considered as import and export parameters; for exam-
ple, an input value is passed in the FM. The value is used, and a new value after
execution of the FM is returned in the same parameter.

T Tables
Table parameters contain the internal table that you want to pass in the FM. Table
parameters are also like changing parameters, in that some of the values can be
changed after the execution of the FM.

E Exceptions
Exceptions are the errors or some exemptions that might have occurred during FM
execution. They generally return the messages that define what problem has oc-
curred. Exceptions should be handled in the program that is calling the FM, and
the message explaining the exception should be displayed to the user.

Part IX
Users and Authorizations

This part of the book contains the function modules (FMs) related to users who are
using SAP and their authorizations to execute transactions. Users are maintained
in Transaction SU01 (User Master), and data are saved in user-specific tables,
whose names generally start with “USR” such as USR01, USR02, USR03 and so on.

This part contains the FMs that are used to set user details, such as an address;
printing the address in Smart Forms; and so on. This part also contains the FM to
check whether the user has relevant authorizations to execute any transaction, to
execute any ABAP Data Dictionary table or view, or to access any file.
