Hi

In R/3 system, Go to transaction - SE37 and put any standard function module name

say BAPI_PO_CREATE

and click on Display key.

Go to the Attributes tab.

Press F1 on the particular radio buttons (say Update Function module .. and so on..)

You will all the relevant information from there.

To be able to call a function module in an update work process, you must flag it in the Function Builder. When you create the function module, set the Process Type attribute to one of the following values:

Update with immediate start

Set this option for high priority ("V1") functions that run in a shared (SAP LUW). These functions can be restarted by the update task in case of errors.

Update w. imm. start, no restart

Set this option for high priority ("V1") functions that run in a shared (SAP LUW). These functions may not be restarted by the update task.

Update with delayed start

Set this option for low priority ("V2") functions that run in their own update transactions. These functions can be restarted by the update task in case of errors.

Hi raul,

1. Update FM - The main purpose of such FM is to update

some database tables, in a consitent manner.

2. It means that, when we call such update FM,

it does not update the tables immediately.

3. Instead

4. It stores the information (such as table to be update, data to be update etc),

and later on,

indepenently updates the tables.

5. If any error occurs, it notifies using inbox/workplace.

regards,

amit m.
