FM: RSDRO_READ_ODS_OLAP doesn't exists

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are Rampup Customer with SP7.

We are using a Function module RSDRO_READ_ODS_OLAP in one of the customized program. This FM doesn't exists in 2004s BI.

I found FM name in the Object Navigator (SE80)in Package RSDD under RSDRO_REPORT, When I double click on FM RSDRO_READ_ODS_OLAP it says FM doesn't exist.

Can anyone Suggest me, what is the status of this FM.

Is that Under development ? Obsolete or any alternate solution for this.

Thanks.

Swamy.

Hi Swamy,

this function has vanished in 7.0. This is simply the risk that you take if you use internal calls.

I suggest that you look at the RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ. It is documented albeit also an SAP-internal API. However, it is more likely to remain stable.

If you are looking for a stable BAPI then consider the OLAP BAPI.

Hope this helps.

Hi Thomas,

I have tested my programs using FM : RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ before posting this, it reads data from cubes but doesn't returns any data from ODS.

Any how I solved my problem using an another function module RSAN_ODS_DATA_READ.

Thanks for Investigating on this.

Best Regards

Swamy.
