table parameters are kind of obsolete, and ther is no need to use them.

If you declare the type of an import parameter correctly (with a tabletype existing in your dictionary) you can import a table in your import parameters. rest should be easy then.

just for the record, this works with exporting parameters as well.

table parameters are kind of obsolete, and there is no need to use them.

Except in remote-enabled FM's as long as basXML is not the RFC protocol. In this case, tables parameters are preferred, as they are much faster than changing parameters in this case. See Official ABAP Programming Guidelines by SAP Press (2010), pages 342-344.

Ignoring the TABLES/CHANGING/EXPORTING argument...

Why not? There's no issue with marking a TABLES interface parameter with 'Optional' and publishing the function module or function group as a web service...

hi experts,

i am able to put optional for strucutre but i need to put optional for the individual fields present in that structure ...

in present sceniro either i am having to pass values for all the fields of the structure or skip the whole structure ..

but my requirmnt is that few of the fields are not mandatory in that structure so they should be acpet null values.

regards,

prabhanjan

Hi,

I think these validation are done using the coding only. Please check the source code inside the rfc for the particular field. and change the code accordingly.

You can not put some of fields in structure is optinal or mandatory. You have to put validation in you program for that.

Only you can define structure parameter is optional or mandatory.
