Inbound Function Module

This section shows how to implement the function module called to process the inbound IDoc(s).

It starts with an explanation of what needs to be considered to ensure consistent data.

The simplest case is outlined, where the inbound function module only processes one IDoc at a time.

The implementation of the serialization function and the addition of customer exits is described.

Then, the implementation of an inbound function module that can process more than one IDoc at a time ("mass processing") is outlined.

The section ends with an explanation of how to ensure data consistency when using a call transaction.
