Hi,

can any body give me an idea of implicit commit and explicit commit.

we need to post a transaction using RFC How would u accomplish this

(a) async BAPI with implicit commit

(b) async BAPI with explicit commit

Thx in advance

Hi Kobby,

The newer BAPI's work with explicit commit which means that the BAPI call must be followed by a call to BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT within the same RFC session.

>><i>we need to post a transaction using RFC How would u accomplish this

To accomplish this the BAPI should be able to call the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT itself . The advanced settings in the RFC adapter can also be used to COMMIT the bapi within the same RFC Session.

>><i>(b) async BAPI with explicit commit</i>

To accomplish this you need to create a BAPI wrapper which calls the BAPI and subsequently calls the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT and explicitly commits the BAPI. For more details on BAPI wrappers follow this link

Further read some weblogs on BAPI's

Hi,

In the RFC Adapter RCV Configuration you have an advanced section where you can chose to send the the CONFIRM Transaction or not for your BAPI. I think then you can control it from XI rather than coding it in the BAPI.

Thanks

Hi Kobby,

I think the implicit commit is the one in whch the BAPI itself has the logic to commit the transaction whereas, some BAPIs doesnt hv this logic, so u hv create a wrapper RFC in which u will call the main BAPI followed by the bapi BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT. This is called explicit commit.
