Debugging FM working as Web Service

Former Member — Wed, 29 Nov 2006 12:18:37 GMT

Hello!

I have an FM working as WS. How can I debug this FM when I pass data to this FM via WebService?

Regards, Tomek

I would suggest you to do a unit test in SE37 with the same data you are passing via a Web Service and ensure that it is working as expected.

I am not sure if you can debug when the fm is invoked a s a web service from a external system.

I did this already and when I use data from SE37 FM works correct, with the same data via WS not. Thatway I'm asking about debugging when data comes from WS.

I think that WSDL file and conversions can be problem...

you can place an HTTP break point within the code which would get triggered when called from webservice clients. (the user name has to be the same )

possbile reason for error: tested fine in SE37 and not in webservice.

conversion exits are there which are automatically handled in Se37.

for example csks-kostl is 10 chars long with conversion exit.

suppose csks-koslt value is 456, in se37 if you pass 456 it will work. however when you call from webservice you need to pass 0000000456 (seven preceeding zeros).

I also discovered that the problem are converions and leading zeros. Now inside FM I just call correspondent converions exit and now it works fine.
