Events Concept

Introduction

The event concept enables the integration of industry-specific and customer-specific processes and data in the existing system architecture of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable for a new implementation and in production operation.

Using installation-specific and industry-specific function modules that you define in Customizing, you can enhance the standard business processes of Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable in predefined program events seamlessly and without modifications. Depending on the event, you can either realize an alternative program logic or additional functions.

SAP delivers a sample function module for each event that defines the interface of this event, but in which no flow logic is usually implemented. To adapt the processes defined by SAP to the internal requirements, each customer can implement another customer module in their installation at any time.

The technical name of the sample function module is formed from code FKK_SAMPLE* and the name of the event. In the case of a sample function module defined at event 0010, the name would be FKK_SAMPLE_0010. If the Additional functions indicator is set, several industry-specific function modules and several customer-specific function modules can be processed. Along with events that are available to all industry components, additional industry-specific events also exist. You can recognize these from the encryption of the application area in the technical name

You can use transaction FQEVENTS to maintain events and their function modules in FI-CA. You can use the function module FKK_FUNC_MODULE_DETERMINE to check the sequence:

  • TFKFBM sample function module
  • TFKFBS standard function module
  • TFKFBC installation-specific function module
