Hi all,
I’m following this tutorial to try and become familiar with smartforms. I feel like I’ve followed all the steps exactly as describe, but when I execute the driver program for the smartform, I get this error:
“An attempt was made to call function module “SFF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME”.
This cannot be found in the library though.”
I don’t think the code is necessary here but I’ll paste it anyway just in case. This is the code for the driver program that should eventually activate the smartform:
DATA: FM_SFORM TYPE RS38L_FNAM.
TABLES: mara.
* marc, mard, makt.
*DATA: begin of it_mara occurs 0,
* matnr like mara-matnr,
* ersda type mara-ersda,
* ernam type mara-ernam,
* mtart type mara-mtart,
* end of it_mara.
data: it_mara type standard table of mara with header line.
parameters: p_matnr like mara_matnr.
select single matnr ersda ernam mtart from mara into corresponding fields of it_mara
where matnr = p_matnr.
* Now call function: SSF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME
* IN FORMNAMEL parameter pass the smartform name.
* FM_NAME: PARAMETER PASS THE FUNCTIONMODULE VARIABLE WHICH IS * declared* over the program.
*
CALL FUNCTION ‘SFF_FUNCTION_MODULE_NAME’
EXPORTING
FORMNAME = ‘ZTEST_RDC’
* VARIANT = ‘ ‘
* DIRECT_CALL = ‘ ‘
IMPORTING
F_NAME = FM_SFORM
* EXCEPTIONS
* NO_FORM = 1
* NO FUNCTION_MODULE = 2
* OTHERS = 3
.
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* * MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGN0
* WITH SY_MSGV1 SY_MSGV2 SY_MSGV3 SY_MSGV4.
ENDIF.
CALL FUNCTION FM_SFORM “‘/1BCDWB/SF00000021’
* EXPORTING
* ARCHIVE_INDEX =

* ARCHIVE_PARAMETERS =
* CONTROL_PARAMETERS =

it_mara1 = it_mara
* EXCEPTIONS
* FORMATTING_ERROR = 1
* INTERNAL_ERROR = 2
* SEND_ERROR = 3
* USER_CANCELED = 4
* OTHERS = 5
.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* Implement suitable error handling here
ENDIF.
On the internet I did see some people talking about the function module, but those posts were from 2010. Does the function module just not exist anymore? And if so, does anyone know of a replacement I could use?
Thank you very much in advance!
