PSCD - FICA Mass Activities - VTREF Parallel Processing Object not working.

[Former Member]

Hi. I am developing mass activities for PSCD in the FICA grounds.

However, when I try to use VTREF as the paralell processing object, the framework for mass activities does not work.

I found that for the VTREF object to work, I need to configure the event 9000 to a function module. I tried to do this by updating the TFKFBC table (or V_TFKFBC) but I have at least four different function modules that need to process VTREF data, and this table / view only lets me configure one.

What I think is that I am misunderstanding the use of the table and the event, but I haven't been able to find any documentation on this matter. Only the main OSS note for Setting Up Mass Activities:

 Event for the Interval Function Module 
Use event 1700 as an example: 
o Insert an installation-specific event into the table TFKFBM using 
table maintenance (transaction SM30). Usually, these type of events 
are agreed within the range 1700-1799.  The name of the customer 
events is available in the customer namespace, for example Z001. 
o As a sample module, specify the interval module that you are using. 

Does anybody know how to setup this event or a link to any documentation, tutorial or whatever about this matter?

Thanks in advance.

I found the solution. Although I do not really understand why...

What I did was create a dummy function with no processing at all, and then in the view V_TFKFBC assigned that function to the events 9000 and 9001.

I hate when I do not understand why, but... that way it worked.

Thanks.
