Gateway Service with Table and Field as input

[former_member414689]

Hello Folks,

I have a RFC which has:

1 importing parameter : a field

1 table parameter : a table with 2 fields(multiple entries).

I need to consume this RFC in my service.

I am very much confused so as how to pass the table as an input to my servie query.

My service is constrained by the FM design and I cannot provide a code-based implementation to encapsulate the FM,so have to go this way only.

I have gone through many posts so as how to pass Tables(not range tables as input).

But I am not able to understand (both $batch and normally) how to implement them.

UI will send me the data in the form of a table and I need to pass it in the query input.

So I basically will not know how many records can be there in the table.The only thing I might know is they will be date values.

Please help if anyone has any input on this.

Thanks In Advance.

You have to ask UI to send data in JSON format to backend. Sample - https://blogs.sap.com/2017/12/13/odata-working-with-json-data-in-backend/

Hello Ankit,

OK but then how should I design the service in my scenario ??

You can have a string property which will take the table data in JSON format from UI and then parse the same JSON string in backend to convert it to an internal table.
