Question

I am using the SAP .NET Connector 3.0 to connect to some NetWeaver instance running on another machine. It all works nice, but the tutorial only connects to one function called STFC_CONNECTION. To do this, I am using this code:

function = destination.Repository.CreateFunction("STFC_CONNECTION"); 

Problem is, how do I know what other functions I can call? I there an overview of the available functions and return values? I have a login for the SAP site, so that’s not a problem.

Thanks 🙂

If you want to know all function that can be called, you can check the table TFDIR with parameter FMODE =’R’ (for Remote) using transaction se16. However, this will clearly be far too much info, since there is no explanation of what the functions do, or how they relat to each others.

another possibility is to use the BAPI transaction to get info on disponible operation by functionnal area.

Last, if you know some functions that interest you, you can search for function with the same prefix, or inportant part (ie INFTY for HR for exemple) using transaction se37. Please note that in this case, returned function can be inaccessible by RFC : you will have to check in the function’s properties if the execution type is ‘Remote’.
