Problem with Functional Module Code

Former Member — Wed, 21 Aug 2019 14:20:39 GMT

I am trying to write a functional module to read data from a table and then export it. Issue i am facing is with Function , ENDFUNCTION keywords. It says I need to write FUNCTIONAL-POOL instead of Function. I have tried that also. It didn`t help either.

Please point out what is the issue with this thing.

You need to know how to create FM. Please, check the following link

https://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/9f/db98fc35c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/content.htm?no_cache=true

After take in account you have some ranges for creating your own objects in workbench. Please, look at Note 16466 - Customer name range for SAP objects. So, for FM the function must be begin by Z_ or Y_

I hope it helps you

Regards

Eduardo

A function module belongs to a function pool (or function group) which has a FUNCTION-POOL statement at the beginning of the code. Maybe you removed it or you didn't activate the function pool first (you may also activate all objects at a time).

Did you forget to (create and) activate the function group before creating the first function module?

Also your forum Id doesn't display the SAP employee icon, so use a Customer namespace - Function group starting with Y or Z, module starting with Y_ or Z_ (ref: 16466 - Customer name range for SAP objects)
