RFC executing a BDC

Former Member — Wed, 05 Apr 2006 08:31:53 GMT

I have written an RFC that executes a BDC.

When I test this in SAP it works fine.

However when the external application calls this RFC the transaction CJ20N returns an Abort message.

We have tried logging on as a dialog user too but an abort messageis still received.

I have been led to believe that it is possible to call a BDC from an RFC.

Can anyone confirm whether this is true?

The message when it aborts is:

"Error calling a method of the tree control"

Many Thanks

David

Hi David,

Are you abble to call a BDC of the transaction CJ20N in background task ?? I'm surprise, I thougth that SAP will dump because it can't create a container for the Tree ..

Why don't you use BAPI ? BAPI is made for that goal.

as Frederic mentioned you cannot use BDC for CJ20N as it uses controls. you should go for a BAPI.

BAPI_PROJECTDEF_CREATE

Hi,

You can try this BAPI <b>BAPI_BUS2001_CREATE</b> to create Project Definition.

Read the FM documentation.

Hello David,

If you really need to use Batch Input (BDC) for this, use transaction CJ20 (see SAP note 535013). Controls (like tree control etc.) are not supported for batch input.

Cheers,

Martin

Thanks all for your replies.

BAPI_PROJECTDEF_CREATE is no use to me as I need to edit an existing project and it is a custom field.

I have now found that CJ07 suits my purposes.
