Hi,

I think new Function Module Will not be Created.

Changes in your Smart forms will be Updated to the Function Module.

(just Wait for the expert suggestions.. If i Entered Anything wrong)

Hi Hitesh,

Different version will have different FM name. So answer is yes.

Hi, Once done the changes Have actived or only saving the changes.

[hitesh_gabani]

Both i am doing ( first save and after activate it).

AFAIK (and after test) the FM name is defined at first activation (dev) or first import (in a target system) of course activation and import will always regenerate the FM.

But why do you ask (the number range is wide enough (9999999 values) and in all cases your program MUST use FM  SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME as the sequence of number will be different in the different systems (or you have to insure to transport first time the form in same sequence than original activation, good luck)

Hi Hitesh,

                     Yes it will create new function module, only at the time when you change Import parameters.

Hi Hitesh,

As per my understanding on activation it will not create the different FM , but if you save the form and do not activate then it will generate the new FM .

Better you try different combinations on your system and make a conclusion , I am also waiting for the current answer , I do not have system with me as of now ,else I would have been done this for you .

Hi Shyam,

Yes if we save the form and do not activate it will create new FM,  but also after activation we will be getting the Old FM.

Also the FM will be different in different target system. ie DEV, QA, PRD i confirmed the same.

Hello Hitesh,

New FM will be generated whenever the smartform gets activated or transported to other systems.

Hello Vadamalai,

Yes it will create a New FM. To control that you Need to use the FM 'SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME'. In this you need to pass the Smart form Name and it will return you the FM Name.

Two Function Modules are generated  as follow:

1.First at creation time

2. Second at the time of activation

The Second  FM will change Every Time When You Activate The SMF

and The Last  Activation Fm Replaces The Creation Time's FM.

It May Help You,
