&FUNCTIONALITY&
This function module was generated from
object <LS><(>&<)>1</> and method <LS><(>&<)>2</>
, for BAPI calls using ALE.
The interface of the module was defined as a standard API in ALE. The
data is provided by the ALE layer.
The function module is executed in the inbound system by the ALE layer.
It converts the data from the IDoc into BAPI parameters and calls the
BAPI in the inbound system. For more information about this BAPI, see
>>>>DOCULINK<(><<)><(><<)><(><<)><(><<)>.
When this module is executed, a new IDoc status is written. This status
indicates either that the BAPI was called successfully in this system
(status 53) or that errors occurred (status 51).
BAPI return parameters specify how the ALE layer writes the IDoc status.
If errors occur, the ALE layer is responsible. How the BAPI return
parameters work:

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

If the BAPI return parameter is an EXPORTING parameter, one single IDoc
status record is written. If the message has type A or E, the IDoc is
given status 51 (application document not posted). Otherwise (for
message types W, I, or S), the IDoc is given status 53 (application
document posted).
If the return parameter is a tables parameter, multiple IDoc status
records can be written. Message types determine the IDoc status. If a
message has type A or E in the table, status 51 is written for the IDoc
(application document not posted) for all entries except those with the
type S (entries with types A, E, W, or I). For messages with type 'S',
no IDoc status appears. If a message in the table has type 'A' or 'E',
status '53' (application document posted) is written for 'W', 'I' or
'S'. The status records are written to the database in the same sequence
as the messages in the return parameter.
If the return parameter is empty, the BAPI call was successful. In this
case, an IDoc status record with status 53 (application document posted)
is written by the ALE layer.
If errors occur, the application must ensure that the data is
consistent, for example by rolling back unwanted changes.
You can use the ALE error handling functions (create a work item) to
process any errors.
