Description of the Interfaces

Dependencies

If you use a remote function call, SID support has to be switched off and the hierarchy restrictions have to be expanded.

Different variants are allowed for the interface of the user-defined function module. These variants depend on the options you have chosen for the VirtualProvider:

If Pack RFC is switched on, choose variant 1
If SID Support is switched off, choose variant 2
Otherwise, choose variant 3

Variant 1:

 
 IMPORTING
   infocube        LIKE bapi6200-infocube
   keydate         LIKE bapi6200-keydate
   return          LIKE bapiret2
 TABLES
   selection       STRUCTURE bapi6200sl
   characteristics STRUCTURE bapi6200fd
   keyfigures        STRUCTURE bapi6200fd
   data            STRUCTURE bapi6100da
 EXCEPTIONS
   communication_failure
   system_failure

This variant is the most general and the most straightforward. It is described in the documentation for function module BAPI_INFOCUBE_READ_REMOTE_DATA.

Variant 2:

 
 IMPORTING
  i_infoprov         TYPE rsinfoprov
  i_keydate          TYPE rrsrdate
  i_th_sfc           TYPE rsdri_th_sfc
  i_th_sfk           TYPE rsdri_th_sfk
  i_t_range          TYPE rsdri_t_range
  i_tx_rangetab      TYPE rsdri_tx_rangetab
  i_first_call       TYPE rs_bool
  i_packagesize      TYPE i
  i_maxrows          TYPE i
  i_use_aggregation  TYPE rs_bool
  i_show_statement   TYPE rs_bool
 EXPORTING             
  e_t_data           TYPE standard table
  e_end_of_data      TYPE rs_bool
  e_t_msg            TYPE rs_t_msg

This variant is described in the function module documentation for RSDRI_VPROV_READ_TEMPLATE.

Alternatively, the name of a class that implements interface IF_RSDRV_VPROV_LOC_NOSID_QUERY can also be entered here. The name is used to differentiate between them. If the name begins with CL, this is interpreted as a class. (Class name such as ZCL*, YCL* or namespace prefixes are not supported). This interface can only be used in internal SAP applications.

Variant 3:

Caution

SAP advises against using this interface.

The interface is intended for internal use only and is only mentioned here for completeness.

Note that the structures used in the interface may be changed by SAP.
