Problem with 'CALL TRANSACTION'

Former Member — Wed, 21 Jul 2010 17:00:48 GMT

Hello,

I'm having the following problem:

When I perform an operation (button click to send an e-mail), somewhere in an user-exit I have a call to a 'Z' function module (FM X). That FM X calls the same transaction I was before using batch data. Everything works fine.

Now imagine that I click the same button again (without leaving the transaction) to try to send a new e-mail. Somewhere in the code I have another FM (FM Y) for sending mails with a "commit work" statement. The second time, after the commit work, everything is different because the program jumps to the end of FM X. I suppose this is happening because I'm using the same session and I must have some kind of parameters saved in memory.

Do you know a way to call FM Y without the program returning to FM X?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

ricardo

Difficult to understand the exact scenario, you give too much information, please keep things the simplest possible.

Are you talking about CALL TRANSACTION ... USING ... ? (also called CTU, it uses BDC technology)

In that case, by default, any COMMIT WORK stops the transaction. If you use OPTIONS FROM keyword to CTU, with field RACOMMIT = 'X', then the COMMIT WORK do not stop the transaction any more.
