Hi,

Simplest way,

go to SE84 -> Envir. -> Exit Techniques -> Business Add-ins ->

Here you will find definitions and implementations.

Select the desired one, and enter the development class of the standard transaction to find all the existing BADIs.

Hi ,

A simple method is find the development class of the transaction for which you want the BADI .

Thenn enter this development class in SE80 , in the resulting tree structure there is a node called enhancements , you can find the BADI for the development class there.

Another way is mentioned in the below given blog

Hi Ahmed,

<b>A. BAdI Definition

1. SE18

2. Enter the name for the BAdI to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".

3. Enter a definition for your BAdI and on the interface tab enter a name for the BAdI interface. SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good. Meanwhile a BAdI class is also created which is not in our concern.

e.g for "ZTEST", SAP proposes "ZIF_EX_TEST" for the interface and "ZCL_EX_TEST" for the class.

4. Save your BAdI.

5. Double-click on the interface name. It will pass to a Class Builder session to make you implement your interface. If you are not familiar to the Class Builder; it's a bit like Function Builder and it will be easy to discover its procedure.

6. Save and activate your interface.

B. Calling your BAdI from an application program

1. Declare a reference variable with reference to the Business Add-In interface.

e.g. DATA exit_ref TYPE REF TO zif_ex_test.

2. Call the static method GET_INSTANCE of the service class CL_EXITHANDLER. This returns an instance of the required object.

e.g.

CALL METHOD CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE

CHANGING instance = exit_ref .

3. After those two steps, you can now call all of the methods of the BAdI where it is required in your program. Make sure you specify the method interfaces correctly.

C. BAdI Implementations

1. SE19

2. Enter the name for the BAdI implementation to be created in customer namespace and press "Create".

3. It will request the BAdI definition name to which this implementation will be tied.

4. Enter a definition for your implementation and on the interface tab enter a name for the implementing class. Again SAP proposes a name and it is pretty good.

e.g for "ZIMPTEST", SAP proposes "ZCL_IM_IMPTEST".

5. Save your implementation.

6. To implement a method, just double-click on the method name and you will be taken to the Class Builder to write the code for it. Here you redefine the BAdI interface methods.

7. You must activate your implementation to make it executable. You can only activate or deactivate an implementation in its original system without modification. The activation or deactivation must be transported into subsequent systems

Hi,

Searching BADI’s

Abstract: Searching BADI’s for a Business Transaction

Introduction

Business Add-Ins are a new SAP Enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects. This document explains the various ways to search BADI’s for a Business Transaction.

Target Audience: ABAP Consultants

Different ways to search BADI’s:

1. Using Performance Trace formerly known as SQL Trace (ST05)

This technique is most useful for Background Jobs or Processes.

BADI database tables are always accessed by the views V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT. So these two ABAP views will be the basis for the trace.

Example case

Change Customer Master (Transaction XD02).

Environment: SAP R/3 release 4.6C

Pre Checks

Check if no other users (SM04) or Batch Jobs (SM50) is using the same user as you do.

Trace Actions

· Start the Performance Trace (ST05)

· Set the flag Buffer Trace

· Click on “Trace on” button

· Open another session & change any customer using transaction “XD02”. And save it.

· Go back to trace screen and click on “Trace off” button

Analyzing the Trace List

· Select Trace List and filter trace list for objects “V_EXT_IMP” & “V_EXT_ACT”.

· Fill operation with “OPEN”

· Press Enter & see the result

Interpreting the Trace List

· All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BAdI class interfaces. The BAdI name is after the IF_EX_. So the BADI name for “IF_EX_ADDRESS_UPDATE” is “ADDRESS_UPDATE”.

In transaction “SE18”, we can the BADI Definition.

· If we would like to keep your analysis, you can export it to Excel file format.

2. Through transaction “SE18” using Package name: Get Package name for the required transaction. Go to transaction “SE18”. Press “F4” in front of Definition name. Click on “Information Systems”. Put package name & press Enter.

Example case

For Business Transaction “ME21N” & Package “ME” list of BADI’s is as under:

3. Using Exit Handler Class “CL_EXITHANDLER”: Set break point for methods “GET_INSTANCE” & “GET_CLASS_NAME_BY_INTERFACE”.

Execute transaction & check for control. If control stops, check for Exit name.

4. Using SAP Customizing Implementation Guide: In some cases, BADI’s are attached to Business Transactions through “IMG” settings. In transaction “SPRO”, select Project name & navigate to required object & check for Business Add-Ins.

Example case

Business Object: Purchase Order

Navigation: SPRO à SAP Reference IMG à Materials Management à Purchasing. At end you will find Business Add-Ins for Purchasing.

Conclusion

If you are planning to implement BADI’s for a Business Transaction, first step is to search proper BADI & then implement it. This document is useful for searching a BADI.
