Hi Krishnam,

The 'OPEN_FI_PERFORM......_P' function module corresponds to the Process BTE. These BTEs allow to implement program that differs from standard application, so they have changing or exporting parameter in the BTE function module interface.

The 'OPEN_FI_PERFORM......_E' or the 'OUTBOUND_CALL..' are Publish and Subscribe BTEs. These BTEs allow you to functionality implement additional functionality, not delivered by SAP or as per custoomer requirement.

Hi Krishnam,

The 'OUTBOUND_CALL*' BTE function module additionally allows to sRFC enabled implementation.

Which means that in the OUTBOUND_CALL..' BTE there is a check to identify if the function module implemented is RFC enabled or not, and it has the possibility to call RFC enabled function module based on 'SAMPLE_INTERFACE_....' with destination.

The 'OPEN_FI_PERFORM*_E' calls only normal function module implementation.
