Hi, I'm looking for a function module to return a random GUID. I've tried CREATE_GUID but everytime I execute the FM, I get the same GUID.

Thanks!

I get numbers like "6,0803740611299872E-01"

Why is there a comma?

Hello Fong

If class<b> CL_RECA_GUID </b>is available in your SAP system call its static method <b>GET_NEW_GUID</b>.

Alternatively, you can directly call function module <b>GUID_CREATE</b>.

Uwe,

When I execute GUID_CREATE multiple times, I get the same GUID. What could be the issue?

It's unique. Difference in one-two characters, that's why it's seems like the same.
