please help me: BDC question

Hi

U can use both method, so insert a radiobutton in the selection-screen in order to decide which method to be used.

The ABAP code is the same, the only difference is you have to use CALL TRANSACTION statament or fm BDC_OPEN_GROUP, BDC_INSERT, BDC_CLOSE_GROUP.

IF P_SESS = 'X'.
  CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_OPEN_GROUP'
    .................
  
  FL_OPEN = 'X'.
ENDIF.

*---> Here fill BDC table

IF P_CALL = 'X'.
  CALL TRANSACTION <TCODE> ....
ELSE.
  IF FL_OPEN = 'X'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_INSERT'
      ....................
  ENDIF.
ENDIF.  

IF FL_OPEN = 'X'.
  CALL FUNCTION 'BDC_CLOSE_GROUP'
   .............................
ENDIF.

you can prepare your program to create a BI session if CALL TRANSACTION fails

Max

it is ur requirement...if u have few records u can go for call transaction but if u have large no of records then go for session method as this will help a lot in ur case.

Hi,

It is better to use the Call transaction method, for this if any error records found, you can create the session for this one.

Call Transaction 'TCODE' using BDCDATA MODE 'N' UPDATE 'S' messages into BDCMSGCOLL

if sy-subrc <> 0.

Call transaction 'BDC_OPEN_GROUP'

CALL TRANSACTIOn 'BDC_INSERT'.

CALL TRANSACTION 'BDC_CLOSE_GROUP'

endif.
