Common Way of Representing Parameters
Parameters are generally represented as child elements of the business document root element. What parameter names are used as element names within the business document depends on the underlying interface type:
*In business documents for RFCs, the names of the parameters of the function module interface are used in the XML document.
*Business documents for BAPIs contain the parameter names as they are defined in the business object Repository (BOR).
The SAP-internal data structures of the parameters are displayed in a serialized form within the parameter element in accordance with the SAP specification Serialization of ABAP Data in XML.
