Type 0: Definition of Dynamic Function Calls

Use

You can use this function to call certain SAP functions from within the PI sheet or perform certain calculations and checks in the PI sheet. ABAP function calls that have been created for the corresponding use are used for the function call.

Prerequisites

The function module to be called must exist and be active in the Function Builder (ABAP Development Workbench).

Features

The SAP system contains a number of predefined function modules that you can use in function calls. You can also create your own function modules.

To create or display function modules, go to Customizing for Process Management and choose Process Instructions Define PI Categories for PI Sheet Using Characteristic Overview. -> Assign Characteristics to Dynamic Function Calls Create Function Modules for Dynamic Function Calls.

The following table provides an overview of the function modules that you can define as dynamic function calls:

Function	Function Module
Calling of any transaction	COPF_CALL_TRANSACTION
Order confirmation for phases	COPF_ENTER_CONFIRMATION
Displaying of material quantity calculation in the order	COPF_MATERIAL_QUANTITY_ CALC
Display of documents created in the SAP document management system	COPF_DOCUMENT_ SHOW _DIRECT
Calculation of the duration of time intervals	COPF_DETERMINE_DURATION
Calculate the start date of a time interval	COPF_DETERMINE_START_TIME
Calculation of the end date of a time interval	COPF_DETERMINE_END_TIME
Creation of physical-sample records for quality inspections during production	QPRS_PI_ NEW _SAMPLE_DRAW
Processing of sample drawing(for example, release/lock physical sample)	QPRS_PI_SAMPLE_DRAW_PROCESSING
Recording of inspection results in QM	COPFX_QM_INSPECTION_RESULT_REC
Sample function module for check function	COPF_VALIDATION_FUNCTION_TEST
Display PI sheet in layout of batch record (EBR)	PI_SHEET_PRINT_WITH_EBR_ STYLE

Activities

When defining dynamic function calls, you specify the following information in the process instruction:

The name of the function module you want to call
Any short text to be displayed on the pushbutton
The characteristic that specifies whether the function can be called when the PI sheet is displayed
The parameters defined in the function module

To enter this information, you assign the following characteristics to the process instruction in the sequence specified below:

Characteristic	Meaning	Value
PPPI_FUNCTION_NAME	Name of a function module	Name of the function module you want to call
PPPI_BUTTON_TEXT	Text for pushbutton	Any short text
PPPI_FUNCTION_DURING_DISPLAY	Specifies whether the function can be called when the PI sheet is displayed	"0" = Not permitted"1" = Permitted
< <Export parameters> < <Changing parameters> < <Import parameters> < <Table Parameters>	Parameters according to definition in function module: < Export parameters < Changing parameters < Import parameters	Parameters of the function module < Import parameters < Changing parameters < Export parameters
