Using the Internal Posting Interface
This topic is only for application programmers and consultants who have written their own reports or programs in the SAP System and have previously always used batch input to update data in the database.
Use
You can use the internal posting interface in Financial Accounting to generate postings using either batch input or call transaction.
Features
You no longer have to enter a program name or screen number when using this interface. Both of these are determined by the interface on the basis of the data that is being posted. This has the advantage that, if the data structures are changed, you do not need to modify your programs.
The posting interface is intended to be an aid in simplifying the batch input process. This is only required in exceptional cases where the standard functions are not sufficient.
You can use this interface via the function modules listed below:
Function module |
Transaction |
POSTING_INTERFACE_START |

POSTING_INTERFACE_DOCUMENT |
FB01, FBS1, FB41, ABF1, FBB1, FBVB, FBV1, FBD5 |
POSTING_INTERFACE_CLEARING |
FB05 |
POSTING_INTERFACE_END |
|
POSTING_INTERFACE_RESET_CLEAR |
FBRA |
POSTING_INTERFACE_REVERSE_DOC |
FB08 |
The individual function modules are documented online in the SAP System.
