FMs for Property Tree value assignments?

[former_member561828]

I'm looking for function modules etc we might use to get the value assignments from the property tree of a substance.  User would typically maintain this information using CG02.  We need methods to get this data for a web service.

Dear Richard

in any output variant SAP is providing you can "detect" which FM is used by SAP. You can check output variant e.g. "EXCEL".

The topic of APIs/BAPIs etc. to read data is addressed very often here, if you check . http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-4110

you will find reference to a lot of threads dicussing how to read of data from property tree.

E.g. in context of e.g. WWI this is done different but the result is the same.

To make it short: in older releases you have used normally this FM: C1F2_SUBSTANCES_READ_WITH_REF - Function - ABAP - SAP

In current situation i believe this is the best option: C1F5_SPECIFICATIONS_READ EHS: Read Specification Data - New - Function - ABAP - SAP

Any output variant can be designed in such a way that you can use "RFC"; so you can call the FM from a different SAP system. Clearly if you populate the FMs with the "right" parameter (quite tricky !) you can use them as in context of a Webservices as well.
