• Key Concepts: 
  Function Builder is a tool within the SAP Workbench that allows users to create and modify functions. It is part of the Editors, Painters, and Modelers component of the BC-DWB-TOO package. Function Builder enables users to create functions that can be used in ABAP programs, and it also allows users to modify existing functions.
  
  How to use it: 
  Function Builder can be accessed from the SAP Workbench by selecting the “Function Builder” option from the Tools menu. Once in Function Builder, users can create new functions or modify existing ones. When creating a new function, users must specify the function name, parameters, and return type. They can then add code to the function body to define its behavior. When modifying an existing function, users can edit the code in the function body or change its parameters or return type.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a new function, it is important to give it a descriptive name that accurately reflects its purpose. This will make it easier for other users to understand what the function does when they come across it in an ABAP program. Additionally, when modifying an existing function, it is important to test the changes thoroughly before deploying them into production.
