Thanks in tones.

There is no fixed way to find FM . Use the keywords for which you want to find the FM and use it along with F4 help in SE37 .

For Bapi , check transaction BAPI

When I'm working in a spanking new environment I usually start with the package that the main transactions belongs to (go bother a functional consultant for this info) and or the application component.

Then I uses this info in SE80 to find a useful package (from application component) or a function group (from package).

Kind regards, Rob Dielemans
