Hi,

I guess you cannot rename a function group, instead goto se80 and copy the entire function group to the name which you want then delete the old one. Make sure before delete the old one check the entire newly copied function group for the existence of all the function modules.

Naveen,

Goto SE38 --> Enter the program name as SAPL(Function Group Name) e.g. if FG name is TEST then enter Program as SAPLTEST. In the application toolbar, there will be an option Rename. Click on that na dprovide the new name. Press Enter and activate.

Every Function Group has a main program associated with it which contains the TOP Include and the UXX include. UXX include contains the includes. Each include here corresponds to a function module.,

To see the main program, what u can do is goto SE37 --> Goto --> Function Group --> Display Group.

Put the group name here and then press the button Main Program on the popup that comes.

Hence, I am talking of this main program which if u will rename, will automatically rename the Function group.

Hope it helps.

Amit.

sorry, I thought this works, but really not...

In this case I am afraid, there is only a three-step way:

1. Copy the function group with the new name and all the function modules inside

2. Delete the original function groups and its modules

3. Rename all the funciton modules to its original name in the new function group

Hi Naveen,

what you can do is Copy the FG and rename the FM as well and later delete/rename the Previous FM of old FG and rename the new FM's with OLD FMs.
