Structure of a Function Group

For example: Function Group ABCD

SAPLABCD                                              Program name

  -> LABCDTOP                                        Global data

  -> LABCDUXX                                        All function modules

      -> LABCDU01                                     Function module #01

      -> LABCDU02                                     Function module #02

  ->LABCDF01                                          Subroutines

 

To understand how an X function group works, you need to understand how a normal function group works:

    A function group consists of includes. The system assigns unique names to the includes for different objects. Some of the include names are simply proposals and some cann't be changed.

    Global data is stored in the TOP include. This inlcude is generated automatically when a function group is created.

    Function modules are stored in includes with sequential numbering, and they in turn are all stored in an include ending with UXX.

   While you can freely choose the names of the includes for all other objects ( subroutines, modules, events, and so on), we advise you to accept the proposed names.

 

 

Structure of an Exit Function Group

SAPLXAAA                                            Program name

  -> LXAAATOP                                      Global data

      ->LXAAATAP                                   Global SAP data

      ->ZXAAATOP                                   Global customer data

  -> LXAAAUXX                                       All function modules

      ->LXAAAU01                                    Function module #01

          ->ZXAAAU01                                Customer source code

      ->LXAAAU02                                    Function module #02

          ->ZXAAAU02                                Customer source code

  -> LXAAAF00                                        SAP source text proposal

 

Exit function groups created by SAP application programmers for enhancement exits contain include programs that begin with either LX or ZX. You can only edit includes beginning with a Z, since they are stored in the customer namespace.

No further function modules may be added to the function group.

The include program ZxaaaUnn contains the source code for the function modules of a function module exit.
