BAPI for crate and insert to temporary tables like SQL

Former Member — Sat, 30 May 2020 08:38:52 GMT

I am a ABAP and BAPI beginner. The requrement is to look for BAPI can create own table and insert record forwading to own ABAP programs. It like a SQL BAPI ! If we can not reach to such BAPI , any idea using other objects can be called via RFC will be appriciated.

Kind regards, Kiyoshi

Hi egawa72,

I do not think there is one. Below you can find links to 3 similar questions.

For reading data via RFC there is a standard module RFC_READ_TABLE but for changing the data you would need to create your own RFC-enabled module and call it via RFC or publish it as a Web Service (depending on your needs).

Hello egawa72

I agree with Bartosz.

BAPI is a function, like any other, that allows developers to use SAP standard functionalities in a standardized way. Making sure, that an invalid/incomplete objects are not created in the system.

If you want to have a custom table and a BAPI-like function to update it from other reports (internal or external), then you will need create this function on your own. This will allow you to put any special/critical logic into your function, like additional checks or error handling, which will ensure that the table is updated with proper data.

Kind regards,

Mateusz
