Hi,

Normally when we want to do a RFC call or we can use the IN BACKGROUND TASK addition to the Function module,

If it is a normal function moduel and need to run in separate task i mean need to run it in a another seeion then we can use this one, so here the called program will run without waiting the function module results.

normal function module, the control will wait for the results from the function module

Hi sivapuram,

1. When we call the FM normally,

then the FM gets competed,

and after that the processing continues further.

2. Where as in background task,

the call for the FM is logged,

and the processing continues immediately.

(The FM runs behind the scenes paralelly)
