    Good resource.

  3. Unknown User (10122natr)

    I just wanted to add to Jame's comment above. 

    This is an excellent resource!  I find myself periodically using the programs/function modules to reactivate transfer rules or datasources.  However, I don't perform those actions enough to commit the program/fm names to memory.  This wiki definitely help those of us who occasionally use these very useful programs.

  4. Definitely, this is good source of information. Great work..!

    One finding is that the FM RP_CALC_DATE_IN_INTERVAL is not exist in BI 7.0. Do you know any program/FM equivalent to this FM?

                EXPORTING I_DATE    = l_calday
                          I_PER     = 'K4'
                IMPORTING E_FISCPER = l_fiscper  ).

  9. Just wanted to add to the content another Function Module
