After selecting Import WRO data on the SAP PM Console page, j5 communicates with SAP several times. It does RFC reads while the tasks are being "Refreshed" and BAPI calls while the tasks are being "Fetched".
-
During "Refreshing SAP Time Zone table", "Refreshing SAP user table" and "Refreshing SAP Text Table" the following call is made to SAP:
-
RFC_READ_TABLE (multiple times)
-
-
During "Fetching Work Orders from SAP" the following call is made to SAP:
-
BAPI_ALM_ORDERHEAD_GET_LIST
-
-
During "Fetching Operations from SAP" the following call is made to SAP:
-
BAPI_ALM_ORDEROPER_GET_LIST
-
-
During "Fetching Notifications from SAP" the following call is made to SAP:
-
RFC_READ_TABLE on table VIQMEL
-
On the initial load, only notifications that have no completion date are fetched. This is done by specifying ‘AND QMZAB = ‘000000’ AND QMDAB = ‘00000000’’ in the filter. After this, all of the notification records are then fetched from the point of the last sync.
Refer to RFC_READ_TABLE Implementation for more information.
