Function Module CREATE_GUID

Former Member — Fri, 04 May 2007 20:23:55 GMT

Hi, I'm looking for a function module to return a random GUID. I've tried CREATE_GUID but everytime I execute the FM, I get the same GUID.

Thanks!

Hi,

Please try this FM QF05_RANDOM.

I get numbers like "6,0803740611299872E-01"

Why is there a comma?

Hello Fong

If class CL_RECA_GUID is available in your SAP system call its static method GET_NEW_GUID.

Alternatively, you can directly call function module GUID_CREATE.

Uwe,

When I execute GUID_CREATE multiple times, I get the same GUID. What could be the issue?

It's unique. Difference in one-two characters, that's why it's seems like the same.
