What does BDC Session part mean

Former Member — Sun, 19 Oct 2008 13:20:31 GMT

Hi all,

As you know,when generating BDC program using t-code SHDB,we got two ways to re-execute the certain transaction,which are 'CALL TRANSACTION ... USING bdcdata' and 'CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_INSERT'' .

I just know how to use the previous one, so could you tell me the meaning of the latter one,how to use it?

Tks

Using Session Method is a two step process in general. When u execute your BDC program using session method,that is calling FM BDC_INSERT... The system would create a session which needs to up processed to update the database. When you create a session,database does not gets updated, Only when you process the session,database is updated.

Call Transaction updates the database immediately....

Hi Alex,

There are lots of threads for your same query please do spend some time to search yourself you will get lots of post for your paot.

Anyways BDC_INSERT is one of the function module which will create a session while we upload data using BDC technique this is the sample example ..

Load BDC as a transaction in BDC session

call function 'BDC_INSERT'

exporting

tcode = v_tcode

tables

dynprotab = itab_bdc_tab

exceptions

internal_error = 01

not_open = 02

queue_error = 03

tcode_invalid = 04.

endform.
