A BAPI wrapper is a function module more or less like a BAPI and follows certain rules to be a BAPI wrapper. Conceptually, a BAPI wrapper has the role of a private method of a business object (SyncBO) and resides in a backend system. That is, a SyncBO in Smart Synchronization calls the BAPI wrapper based on the request from a mobile device. Therefore, it is important that each BAPI wrapper has the parameters expected by Smart Synchronization and behaves as expected by Smart Synchronization. For each business object, up to 5 BAPI wrappers can be created and used:

GET LIST ,GET DETAIL,CREATE ,CHANGE, DELETE
