Hi,

Have You browsed SE37 transaction?If you open any FM in SE37 Documentation button is available on right side corner, or else menu item goto->documentation.

But be sure, some function modules documentation is not available in english.They might be in german.You have to change your logon language if documentation is not maintained in english.

Regards,

Lakshman.

There was a project to supply such here: http://www.se37.com/Fmods/start.aspx

All released function modules are documented within SAP. Some function modules that aren't released are intended for customer use and so are documented. If a function module isn't released, and has no documentation, be very careful about using it, as it isn't intended for customer user and could change at any time. It could also require certain checks or setup be run before execution, so could lead to problems with your data.

I know one site where they used unreleased FM, that we not present in the next release.

But for most of these function modules , Documentation TAB is not active. Please provide details if you have ever used these or even if you have any idea on the same.

Thanks for the earlier replies.
