JCo: retrieving all BAPIs from R3 system

[Former Member]

I create JCo.Client object.

According to all jco tutorials next steps are: create repository, create function template, get function, set input parameters, execute function, get output.

These steps are all about executing ONE particular BAPI.

Is it possible to retrieve all BAPIs available on R3 system represented by my JCo.Client?

Yes, BAPI works like RFCs.

Nothing is different. BAPI are RFC.

A simple definition (not mine 😛 😞

BAPI (Business Application Programming Interface) is a set of interfaces to object-oriented programming methods that enable a programmer to integrate third-party software into the proprietary R/3 product from SAP. For specific business tasks such as uploading transactional data, BAPIs are implemented and stored in the R/3 system as remote function call (RFC) modules.

Roberto, nothing new for me in your link (calling only ONE BAPI - "BAPI_MATERIAL_GETLIST").

My task is:

- enter parameters for R3 system (like host, client, ,user, pssw ....)

- retrieve ALL BAPIs from R3

- call selected BAPI

yes, two first steps like in SAP Enterprise Connector Wizard - but i want to do it using JCo

Must exist a a standard RFC or FM to call.

RFC_FUNCTION_SEARCH
