Badi Implementation for Bex user exit variables

This document gives the step by step method for implementing BADI for user exit variables in Bex. This is an alternative approach to adding the code in EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 through CMOD.

Writing codes for user exits in CMOD exit makes it cumbersome and difficult to debug. Besides, if multiple users want to write the code for user exits at the same time, they can’t do so. To overcome this, we can create BADI implementations in Enhancement spot and write a code to call the BADI in EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001.

Go to transaction SE18 and create an enhancement Spot as shown below

Enter description in short text and hit enter

Create BADI definition

Enter a technical name and description for Badi definition and hit enter

Select the option for multiple use and create filter as shown below

Give a technical name and description for the filter and maintain settings as shown below

Before creating the filter, dictionary object ZGLOB_VAR needs to be defined through SE11. ZVAR_NAM is a domain object we created with data type as char and length 30 which should be sufficient to hold the technical name of the variable.

Next, we need to create interface by entering technical name and clicking on change.

Select level as Instance Method and give a name to method and description

Under properties tab, enter type groups you need and keep the other tabs unchanged

With this, enhancement spot definition is complete. Next, we create individual implementation for each user exit variable. An e.g is shown below.

Enter technical name and description and hit enter

Next, we create Badi implementation and Implementing Class for the enhancement

The implementation is created. Then, customer exit variable name needs to be assigned to the filter and the corresponding code should be entered in the method of implementing class.

Click on filter val and select new combination as shown below

Click on the combination 1 and assign the technical name (ZFDAY in our case) of the customer exit variable to the filter

Then we need to click on Implementing Class, select the method on the right side and say yes

Enter your code in the space

On activation, we will have completed our first implementation. Like this, we can keep adding implementations as and when we create customer exit variables.

In the include of EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001 of our enhancement project in CMOD, we need to add a code to call the BADI as given below

DATA: badi_glob TYPE REF TO ZBW_VAR_BADI_EXIT.

GET BADI badi_glob

FILTERS

zglob_var = i_vnam.

CALL BADI badi_glob ->enhance

EXPORTING

flt_val = i_vnam

i_vnam = i_vnam

i_vartyp = i_vartyp

i_iobjnm = i_iobjnm

i_s_cob_pro = i_s_cob_pro

i_s_rkb1d = i_s_rkb1d

i_periv = i_periv

i_t_var_range = i_t_var_range

i_step = i_step

CHANGING

e_t_range = e_t_range

e_meeht = e_meeht

e_mefac = e_mefac

e_waers = e_waers

e_whfac = e_whfac

c_s_customer = c_s_customer.

Hi Blasco,

Very nice one as we can create multiple user Exit variables under one Enhancement Implementation Spot.

Regards,

Nitin.

Hello….

Explicitly written and cleared the air for me on BADI. Could you please post a document on ”How to pass two variable for BADI implementaion”…..Its invariably appreciated…

Hi Blasco,

Thanks for this. But, would it work in an SAP BW 7.0 system?

I am facing an error at the i_step declaration point.

Any help is appreciated.

Guys,

Any idea on this?

Thanks!

Anirban

  Hi,
  
  I’m also experiencing the same problem as anirban mukhopadhyay..Did I miss some config?
  
  Also, do I need to apply this in the INCLUDE ZXRSRU01 of FUNCTION EXIT_SAPLRRS0_001?
  
  DATA: badi_glob TYPE REF TO ZBW_VAR_BADI_EXIT.
  
  GET BADI badi_glob
  
  FILTERS
  
      zglob_var = i_vnam.
  
  CALL BADI badi_glob ->userexit
  
  EXPORTING
  
      flt_val       = i_vnam
  
      i_vnam        = i_vnam
  
      i_vartyp      = i_vartyp
  
      i_iobjnm      = i_iobjnm
  
      i_s_cob_pro   = i_s_cob_pro
  
      i_s_rkb1d     = i_s_rkb1d
  
      i_periv       = i_periv
  
      i_t_var_range = i_t_var_range
  
      i_step        = i_step
  
  CHANGING
  
      e_t_range     = e_t_range
  
      e_meeht       = e_meeht
  
      e_mefac       = e_mefac
  
      e_waers       = e_waers
  
      e_whfac       = e_whfac
  
      c_s_customer = c_s_customer.
  
  Thank you.

    Hi Loed,
    
    I think you need to define I-Step in the attributes tab.

      Hi Swati,
      
      Attributes tab where? I can’t see an option where to type it..
      
      Can I see a screenshot how you configured yours?
      
      Thank you.
      
      EDIT:
      
      I created a thread swati gawade.. 😉

Hi,

When I’m entering this code in CMOD I’m getting error “Method “ENHANCE” is unknown or PROTECTED or PRIVATE. ” Can you please help?

Thanks,
