As per my knowledge, It will be called in a new session like Update task. you will not get any output from these.

Hi Anuj,

CALL FUNCTION 'XXX' STARTING NEW TASK starts new FM in asynchronous mode. It doesn't interrupt your current program processing. Instead it runs pararelly to your program, therefore the results are not visible until this fm concludes (you can't determine when it happens). Moreover it also starts new SAP LUW, so after fm finishes there is made an implicit DB commit and changes done within this FM can't be rollbacked anymore. During all this time, your program goes ahead and the fm results don't affect it.

On the other hande, when you use normal CALL FUNCTION without the addtion it runs in synchronous mode, so the program holds until the execution of FM is ended. Then it continues its processing. Depending on what you want to achieve you should consider both (any)synchronous approach.

Regards

Marcin

Did you use the PERFORMING <form> ON END OF TASK to get the results back; like in the following sample

          CALL FUNCTION 'SAPWL_STATREC_READ_FILE'
               STARTING NEW TASK taskname
               DESTINATION list-name
               PERFORMING read_outtab ON END OF TASK
               EXPORTING
                    read_start_date   = s_date
                    read_start_time   = '000000'
                    read_end_date     = s_date
                    read_end_time     = '235959'
               EXCEPTIONS " failure when calling RFC
                    communication_failure = 1 MESSAGE msg_text
                    system_failure        = 2 MESSAGE msg_text
                    RESOURCE_FAILURE      = 3.

and

FORM read_outtab USING taskname.
* Receive results back
  RECEIVE RESULTS FROM FUNCTION 'SAPWL_STATREC_READ_FILE'
    TABLES
      v2_normal_records = outtab
    EXCEPTIONS " from the called FM
      nodata    = 1.

Regards
