Steps:
1. Enter transaction FIBF.
2. You go to the Environment / System Info option (P/S). This option will show you a
selection screen, press F8 on it.
3. All events are shown to you, select the one you want to use and press the
Module Button Functions Type.
4. You are shown an example of the function module for the selected event, inside
From it, you will find the data, tables, and structures that you can use when the event occurs.
It's a shooting. The only thing you need to do is copy the example module by creating the
yours and within it place your program logic.
5. You go back to the tcode FIBF and go to the Options / Products menu / ..a customer... Here
you create the product that you will associate with the event, for this you create an entry
nueva indicando el nombre del producto(debe comenzar con Z), una descripcion y lo
most importantly, check the active box.
6. Finally, you return to transaction code FIBF and go to the Modules menu P/S / ..a client and in
you create a new entry indicating the event you want to use, the created product and
your function module.
General Information BTE
BTE's - Business Transaction Events
The BTEs (Business Transactions Events, or business transaction events)
they are a type of extension for the FI module of SAP. Just as there are User- for SD
Exiting from transaction CMOD, SAP created BTEs to be able to adapt the FI module of
SAP system for all clients who require it.
BTEs are based on the following principles: application designers must
define the interface in a function module; an assignment table is read in the
generated code and user modules are called dynamically.
The concepts of BADI's and BTE's are similar in some aspects, but they
they differ in different points:
BTEs can only be used to extend the standard SAP code; it is not
It is possible to expand interfaces like with BADIs.
It is assumed that in the BTEs there are only 3 levels: SAP, Partners, and Clients, to
opposite of BADI's that support multiple layers.
Functions are used to extend SAP code in BTEs; BADIs use.
ABAP Objects.
There are 2 types of interfaces:
Publication and Subscription Interfaces
Process Interfaces
Publication and Subscription Interfaces
These interfaces report on particular events (for example, a document
entered) in the standard SAP application and make the created data accessible for the
external software. The external software does not return any results to the standard of
SAP. Examples of these interfaces are:
Creation, modification, or blocking of a Master Record
A document was created, modified, or annulled.
Items were deleted or reset
Additional processing can be generated in the additional component based on the foundations.
from the following data and events:
Start a Workflow
Generation or modification of additional data
Request for correspondence
Process Interfaces
They are used to send business processes to a different control that cannot be
carried out from the standard processing; that is to say, the process interfaces
they replace the standard SAP interfaces.
At this point, the determination of individual fields can be structured or of
specific reactions to the flow processes individually. It is possible to connect different
different developments external to the standard SAP system. Generally, the
External developments are carried out using the ABAP Workbench.
Basic steps to set up BTE's
First, make sure the application is active for BTE's.
Identify the BTE
Copy the sample code into a Z module
Write the new ABAP code in module Z
Record and activate the function module
Assign the function module to the event, country, and application
Optimal Way to Identify BTE.
A very practical way is by putting a break-point in the following modules of
functions and then execute the business process, with the break-point it will stop at
each BTE that jumps in the process.
PC_FUNCTION_FIND
BF_FUNCTIONS_FIND
Common questions
Powered by AIBTEs facilitate integration by providing interfaces that report specific events within SAP applications, making relevant data accessible for external software processing without altering the core SAP processing. This enables seamless data flow to external controllers or software, enhancing the standard process capabilities with externally developed functions .
To implement a BTE, first ensure the application is active for BTEs. Then identify the BTE, copy the sample code into a new Z module, write the new ABAP code in module Z, record and activate the function module, and finally assign it to the event, country, and application. During execution, set breakpoints in specific function modules to find BTEs .
Function modules in BTEs serve as the core building blocks that define the business logic and operations activated by BTE events. They are dynamically assigned and executed according to specific events, facilitating the extension of standard SAP functionality by encapsulating business-specific logic in a customizable and reusable manner .
Publication and Subscription interfaces report on specific events, such as document creation or modification, and make data available to external software without returning results to SAP. In contrast, Process Interfaces send business processes to external controllers when the standard SAP process cannot handle them, effectively replacing SAP interfaces .
Setting up a Process Interface requires identifying the specific business process that needs external handling. Define how the business process is to interface with external controls, replacing the SAP standard processing. Use the ABAP Workbench to develop necessary external components and structure reactions to process flow adjustments, enabling connection to multiple developments external to SAP .
Copying sample code into a Z module provides a structured starting point for customization. It allows developers to start with a tested foundation that aligns with SAP's standards, reducing errors. The sample code encapsulates essential logic and structure needed for BTEs, which developers can modify specifically to meet custom business requirements within their function module .
BTEs (Business Transaction Events) are used to extend standard SAP code, and differ from BADIs (Business Add-Ins) mainly in their extensibility and interface capabilities. BTEs support only three levels: SAP, Partners, and Clients, whereas BADIs allow multiple layers. BTEs cannot expand interfaces like BADIs and rely on function modules, whereas BADIs utilize ABAP Objects .
Businesses can ensure a BTE setup is operational by setting breakpoints in the function modules like PC_FUNCTION_FIND and BF_FUNCTIONS_FIND during business process execution. This allows verification that the correct BTEs activate as required. Verification also involves checking the event, product, and function module assignments in the transaction FIBF and ensuring that the configuration reflects the intended process logic .
Businesses might choose BTEs over other methods when they need to extend FI module functionality with a simple interface that does not require multiple layers. BTEs are suitable when a business needs to integrate standard SAP applications with external systems quickly, without complex interface customization which is more feasible with BADIs .
Transaction code FIBF serves as the central interface for configuring and managing BTEs in SAP. It allows users to navigate through environment options, create new event bindings, and maintain function modules and product associations required for BTE activation and functionality, effectively bridging user-defined logic with standard SAP processes .
