About SWE_EVENT_CREATE

[Former Member]

In function group SWEA there are five function modules of type SWE_EVENT_CREATE.

What is the difference in these fms? What are the typical uses of each of these?

Is there any documentation available for these?

Hi Sudhir,

The following in excerpt from SAP Help.

<i>You can create events from application or system programs by calling one of the relevant function modules SWE_EVENT_CREATE or SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT .

For the following special cases, there are other function modules, which actually use the functionality of the above function module internally:

SWE_EVENT_CREATE_IN_UPD_TASK

This function module makes it possible to create events in an update task. In contrast to the function module SWE_EVENT_CREATE , it can be called with the addition of IN UPDATE TASK .

SWE_EVENT_CREATE_FOR_UPD_TASK

The event is created in the update task. (The function module is not called with the addition of IN UPDATE TASK .)</i>

One of the remaining FM has no code in it and the other is not used anywhere even by SAP.

If you are trying to create events, use the SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT function if it is available in your SAP release.

Cheers,

Ramki Maley.

what is the difference between the function modules SWE_EVENT_CREATE and SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT ?

In my program,when I tried to call the FM SWE_EVENT_CREATE for a custom BO event ,the event is not getting triggered.

But when I use FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT for the same custom BO event with the same parameters, the event is getting triggered.

Can anyone please diffrerentiate between these two FM usages?

Thanks a lot in Advance.
