Introduction

Function modules (or FMs, as well often refer to them throughout the book) are
templates that can be used and re-used within ABAP code in order to perform specific tasks. Instead of writing code to perform a certain functionality every time
that functionality is needed, programmers can simply call a function module template 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 functionality is required, there is no need for programmers to write a separate program every 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, understanding all of these FMs isnt an easy task.
This book is your guide to the most commonly used FMs in direct programming
activities. Weve 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 customize 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 provide 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 FMs ATTRIBUTE tab via Transaction SE37 to see if the FM is released.

Structure of the Book

Based on the functionality of the FMs weve included, weve 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 expect from the FM call.
Well 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 operations such as calling a new transaction, calling SAP NetWeaver from legacy systems, 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 authorizations, login and logoff of the user in the system, calling a transaction in another 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-defined 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 objects, 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. Reports 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 displayed by ALV. This part defines various FMs such as those for calling an ALV, creating 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. SAPs 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 youll use while developing your programs. Youll use archives to store
the old data and information (which isnt in use) in your secondary storage so that
you free the current memory for usage while still being able to refer to the information whenever required.
Database records of the commercial objects such as purchase documents, sales documents, addresses, and so on are uniquely identified by a number or an ID. Number 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, concatenating strings, and so on.

Part VII
This part contains the FMs related to frontend services and Microsoft Office integration. Frontend services contain the FMs related to SAP GUI frontends such as
GUI_DOWNLOAD, which downloads the FMs to your computer, and GUI_UPLOAD, 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 between two systems. Application Link Enabling (ALE) and Electronic Data Interchange (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 document 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 system 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 document 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
organizations SAP computing resources. Background processing tells the SAP system to run programs for you. It also lets you move long-running or resource-intensive 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 isnt 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. Message texts (standard or custom) are generally used to provide information, warning, success, or error details to the user.
This part contains the FMs for creating a message, sending and collecting the messages 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 administers 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 its a system-wide standardized process and is convenient
to analyze. Several application logs can be written at the same time by an application. 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 function 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), Quality Management (QM), Warehouse Management (WM), and so on. This part contains all of the commonly used BAPIs.

Part XV
This part contains miscellaneous FMs that are important and commonly used but
cant be categorized into any of the preceding parts. Many component-specific
FMs that arent 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, weve identified each type of parameter with an icon and heading for
easier identification.

Import

Import parameters are the parameters or values that you pass on to the FM to execute it correctly when youre in an ABAP program. Some of the import parameters are mandatory, and the rest are optional. Some import parameters are defined
with the default values; that is, if you dont pass any value, then the default values
are automatically passed.

40

850.book Seite 41 Dienstag, 8. Oktober 2013 5:16 17

Introduction

Export

Export parameters contain the results returned from the FM execution.

Changing

Changing parameters indicate those parameters whose value is changed in the FM.
These parameters can be considered as import and export parameters; for example, 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.

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.

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 occurred. 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.

ADDR_DIALOG

384 ADDR_DIALOG
This FM displays the dialog box in which you
can maintain the complete address of a user,
vendor, third party, and so on. FM ADDR_
DIALOG_PREPARE (FM 385) must be called if
you want to parameterize the dialog box, including its title, field selection, exclude functions, and so on.
Example: You want to maintain the address of
any person that exists in your SAP system. If
you want to parameterize the address dialog
box; that is, cause only those specific settings
to appear in the address dialog box, you can
call FM ADDR_DIALOG_PREPARE (FM 385)
first. You can call this FM to open the address
dialog box screen and maintain the address
without
calling
FM
ADDR_DIALOG_
PREPARE (FM 385), which opens the address
dialog box with default settings. You can
maintain addresses in this dialog box.

385 ADDR_DIALOG_PREPARE
This FM sets parameters for address maintenance or filtering conditions for field selection, which reduces the parameters of address
dialog screen. This FM should be called before
calling the address maintenance dialog (from
FM ADDR_DIALOG [FM 384]) to set up application-specific parameters for the address dialog. These address settings are valid until the
end of the LUW or until the FM is called again
and overwrites them.
Example: If you want to change the title bar of
the address dialog screen, exclude/include any
pushbutton, or apply some other condition,
you can pass these parameters in this FM,
which parameterizes the address dialog
screen. Next, when you call FM ADDR_DIALOG (FM 384), it displays the changes you
made to parameterize the address dialog box.
