Perform in a function module

Former Member — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 08:56:15 GMT

I use FM similar to HR_EVENT_RULES_PA0000 to fetch data and then save data in an own created table.

In that FM I have a perform and in that perform I will save the data, but under the perform all data is lost.

The form is in the bottom of the same FM.

How come?

Thanks // Peter B

Hi Peter,

check whether the table c9ontaining data to be saved is declared globally. it would be declared locally.

Also optionally you can pass that table as uisng parameter to save_perform.

Hope this is helpful.

To clarify a little the previous answer - data declared in a function module, and the parameters (unless set otherwise), are local to the function module - i.e. not visible in any forms.

It is better programming practice to pass parameters to forms, rather than using global variables, by the way.
