Hi,

The types of function modules are :

Normal function ... can be called only within the R/3

Remotely enabled function... can be called remotely form other R/3 or java application..

Update module..Used by the system

function added to Business Object Repository (BOR) and remotely enabled-->BAPI.. Standard API provided by SAP which also can be remotely called..

Tanveer.

Hi Rohit,

1. Normal FM = Normal FM

RFC Enabled FM = can be called in another R/3 system

(similar to Remote Method Invocation

in Java)

Update FM = similar to normal FM

but the FM is executed

by the system, in a different fashion, and after a little time.

(specially used to update BUNCH of tables,

for a complete transaction )

regards,

amit m.
