Registering Your Own Programs, Function Modules, and BAPIs
Use
For certain object types, SAP already provides registered standard programs in the Data Transfer Workbench.
For tasks, such as extracting data from non-SAP systems or cleaning data, you can also develop your own programs and function modules. Before you can use these for a task, you have to register them with the relevant object type.
If you want to enhance the SAP-registered BAPIs for loading data into R/3 Systems, you have to create and register your own BAPIs.
Prerequisites
Procedure
In the Data Transfer Workbench, choose Goto ® DX Program Library to get to the Data Transfer Programs Library screen.
Proceed as follows:
Choose Create registration.
In the dialog box Create registration, use the F4 input help to make your selection.
Select one of the object types.
Several program types are assigned to each task type. Only programs of the following program types can be registered:
|

Enter your program or function module in the Program field.
You can deregister programs that you have registered.
If it is a BAPI (only in the case of task type LOA), use the input help to choose Object type and Method in the dialog box. If available, enter the name of a program that generates test data in the Program field.
If it is an IDoc, use the input help to choose Object type and Function module in the dialog box. If available, enter the name of a program that generates test data in the Program field.
You can delete registrations. You can also assign a different method or program to a registered object type.
Result
Your programs, function module and BAPIs are now registered.
