RFC_READ_TABLE

Former Member

Hi,

According to the SAP note 382318 the function module RFC_READ_TABLE is not to be used.

In the ABAP program in the R/3 I must read information from tables of BW system. For the function RFC_READ_TABLE I spent the client (destination), table, fields and WHERE clause selection, but I discovered that I can't use this function.

Someone would tell me how can I make these selections in BW?

Thanks.

Hi,

This is due to RFC_READ_TABLE have output length limitation of 512 and not compatiable to unicode.

My suggestion is write your own function module in BW and make it enabled RFC and call it from SAP R/3

The output lenght is not problem. Sometimes Dumps are generated saying tables mentioned in programa are not exist in BW.

Maybe I need to use other funciton module.
