How to create Abap function

Former Member — Thu, 12 Jul 2007 02:40:19 GMT

Hi Experts,

I would like to create a ABAP function that can take in value and update the value into the custom database table. How do i do it? Is there any step by step procedure material?

At the end of the day, i would like create a web service of the function and allow the developer using Interactive form to pass the value into the web service and update the database table. How do i accomplish that?

Your feedback is very much appreciated. Thanks

Regards,

Rayden

Hi Bala,

Thanks for your valuable feedback. Well, do you have any code sample to supply for the above situation? Or do you have any simple material which take in a parameter and do a insert statement of data into database table and return a "Success" message as a output parameter?

Thank you very much.

Hi Rayden,

First it would be a good idea to create a function group at SE80, only select fuction group in the combo and define a name to it.

Then, go to SE37 and create your function.

The function, if I understood correctly, needs to receive data and input (or modify?) entries in a Z table. For this, you need to define how this data will be received and if there will be more than one entry at a time (if will receive a table or a workarea or even a sequence of entries for every field), and create the relative Importing data.

If you receive a table, just use the following code, consider E_RESULT a Exporting parameter for confirmation of the action:

INSERT (or MODIFY) dbtab FROM TABLE ITAB.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.

E_RESULT = 'OK'.

ELSE.

ROLLBACK WORK.

E_RESULT = 'ER'.

ENDIF.

If you receive from a workarea consider this code:

INSERT (or MODIFY) dbtab FROM E_DATA.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.

E_RESULT = 'OK'.

ELSE.

ROLLBACK WORK.

E_RESULT = 'ER'.

ENDIF.

If you receive the data from every field, you will need to create a workarea at your function and set the data you receive in the respective fields then you do the last code (above one).
