Directories and files 2. Output and spool 3. Logs 4. FTP 5. Others 1. Directories and files RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL - Read a directory on the Application Server RZL_READ_DIR - If the server name is left blank, it reads a directory from local presentation server, otherwise it reads the directory of the remote server EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING - return a list of filenames from a local or network d rive 2. Output and spool SO_SPOOL_READ - Fetch printer spool according to the spool number informed. SO_WIND_SPOOL_LIST - Browse printer spool numbers according to user informed. 3. Logs BP_JOBLOG_READ - Fetch job log executions. 3.1 Application log APPL_LOG_DELETE With this function module you delete logs in the database accord ing to specified selection conditions APPL_LOG_DISPLAY With this function module you can analyze logs in the database. APPL_LOG_DISPLAY_INTERN With this function module you can analyze logs in local memory, e.g. when you have only collected log records at runtime and do not want to write to the database. APPL_LOG_INIT This function module checks whether the specified object or sub-ob ject exists and deletes all existing associated data in local memory. APPL_LOG_READ_DB With this function module you read the log data in the database for an object or sub-object according to specified selection conditions. APPL_LOG_READ_INTERN With this function module you read all log data whose log c

lass has at least the specified value, from local memory, for the specified obje ct or sub-object. APPL_LOG_SET_OBJECT With this function module, you create a new object or sub-ob ject for writing in local memory. With a flag you can control whether the APPL_LOG_WRITE_... messages are written in local memory or are output on the scr een. APPL_LOG_WRITE_DB With this function module you write all data for the specified object or sub-object in local memory to the database. If the log for the object or sub-object in question is new, the log number is returned to the calling program . APPL_LOG_WRITE_HEADER With this function module, you write the log header data i n local memory. APPL_LOG_WRITE_LOG_PARAMETERS With this function module, you write the name of t he log parameters and the associated values for the specified object or sub-object in local memory. If this function module is called repeatedly for the same object or sub-object, the existing parameters are updated accordingly. If you do not specify an object or sub-object with the call, the most recently used is assumed . APPL_LOG_WRITE_MESSAGE_PARAMS With this function module you write a single messa ge, with parameters, in local memory. Otherwise the function module works like A PPL_LOG_WRITE_SINGLE_MESSAGE. APPL_LOG_WRITE_MESSAGES With this function module you write one or more messages , without parameters, in local memory. APPL_LOG_WRITE_SINGLE_MESSAGE With this function module you write a single messa ge, without parameters, in local memory. If no header entry has yet been written for the object or sub-object, it is created. If you do not specify an object or sub-object with the call, the most recently used is assumed.

FTP FTP_CONNECT - Open a connection (and log in) to an FTP server FTP_COMMAND - Execute a command on the FTP server FTP_DISCONNECT - Close the connection (and log off) the FTP server 5. Others TERMINAL_ID_GET - Return the terminal id TH_ENVIRONMENT - Get the UNIX environment TH_POPUP - Display a popup system message on a specific users screen. TH_REMOTE_TRANSACTION - Run a transaction on a remote server. Optionally provide

BDC data to be used in the transaction TH_USER_INFO - Give information about the current user (sessions, workstation lo gged in from, etc) TH_USER_LIST - Show which users are logged into an app server WS_EXECUTE - execute a program on a windows PC WS_VOLUME_GET - Get the label from a frontend device. BP_EVENT_RAISE - Trigger an event from ABAP/4 program. ARFC_GET_TID will return the IP address of the terminal in hex. ENQUEUE_ESFUNCTION Lock an abap program so that it cannot be executed. Example: Set the parameters as follows: RELID = 'ZZ' SRTF2 = 0 SRTF = (your report name) Please note that you should not use SY-REPID to pass your report name to the fun ction. The value of SY-REPID will change as it is being passed to the function m odule, and will no longer hold the value of the calling report.
