BOL and the use of CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN

[juergenbaur]

Hi Guys,

i have a question regarding the use of FM CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN in the WebUI.

Many customers manipulate data with the FM CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN even in WebUI.

From my understanding:

If BOL is loaded and I change data with CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN -> the BOL will not be updated automatically.

So the changed data doesn't show up in WebUI.

In this case I have to force a reload of the BOL with CL_CRM_BOL_ENTITY->RELOAD( ).

Am I right?

Can anybody explain the behaviour of such changes in detail?

Hi,

Could you please elborate your requirement? in what situation you are calling the FM CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN in webui.

In web ui you can modify the data in BOL entities with the BOL object methods itself, you need not call any fm.

Usually we use crm_order_maintain in GUI side so that we access order related data from Bol objects loaded in memory or from database.

Thanks,

Hi,

I found this solution in a customer system. I would never use the function module in WebUI.

From my point of view, the solution have to be redesigned at all.

The bol entity does not refresh automatically in case you have updated the database buffer with crm_order_maintain or similar kind of FM. But there are some scenarios which refreshes entities automatically.

1. In case bol_core->modify is called by standard code during roundtrip

2. the method get_related_entity is called for ur entity after the modification and it will return the current updated data .

3. u use the method CL_CRM_BOL_ENTITY->REREAD after modification, but this can cause performance issue in case called mutilple times.
