Issue While creating Business Objects in SWO1

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I just want to add a FM to my Business Object.

In the FM, when i define the import and export parameters using "TYPE" the FM is working fine. But while adding that method to a Business Object in SWO1, an error is raised. The details are -

Data type xxxx cannot be used for methods

Message no. OL403

You tried to create a method in the BOR with a data type that is not supported. Only data elements and structures are allowed as reference types for parameters in the BOR.

But when i use "LIKE" in place of "TYPE", everything is working fine. Why i want to use "TYPE" in place of "LIKE" is that "LIKE" as typing for parameters is obsolete.

Please suggest the reason for the same.

Thanks,
