Facing problem in call function starting new task taskname

[Former Member]

Hi all,

when i call a function module using starting new task, it is failing with sy-subrc 3. can anyone guide me in this.

see the code :

DATA lv_taskname(7) TYPE c VALUE 'PEM_EXE'.

CALL FUNCTION 'PEM_SCHEDULE' STARTING NEW TASK lv_taskname

EXPORTING

iv_packid = gv_packid

iv_pebid = ls_alv_out-peb_id

EXCEPTIONS

invalid_state_request = 1

database_error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Does it work if you don't use NEW TASK ???

[Former Member]

yes it works, if i dont use 'starting new task taskname'

Is the function remote enabled ?

[Former Member]

no, the function module is not remote enabled. it is executed locally

[Former Member]

I think the function has to be remote enables. this is what the documentation says.

These additions are used to assign actual parameters to formal parameters of the function module and return values to exceptions that are not class-based. The additions have the same meaning as in the synchronous RFC with the exceptions that values with IMPORTING cannot be imported and that actual parameters specified by CHANGING can be transferred but cannot be imported.

when i change the function module from normal to remote, it gives me a error that the "generic types are not allowed in RFC", but i have not given any generic type in the parameters.

see the signature of the function module.

*" IMPORTING

*" VALUE(IV_PACKID) TYPE CNVMBTPACK-PACKID

*" VALUE(IV_PEBID) TYPE CNVMBTPEB-PEB_ID

*" EXPORTING

*" VALUE(EV_ERROR_DETECTED) TYPE C

*" VALUE(EV_STOP) TYPE C

*" EXCEPTIONS

*" INVALID_STATE_REQUEST

*" DATABASE_ERROR

*" FORIEGN_LOCK

Can u please check it and find out the problem

Thanks,

Instead of Type C use Type CHAR1 etc. Give the variable a length.
