Viewing Information in the DDIC Cache
Perform one of the following procedures to view information about the function modules, structure definitions, Business Objects, ALE mappings, and IDocs that are in the DDIC cache.
To view information in the DDIC cache
1. In the Adapters menu in the Integration Server Administrator navigation area, click Adapter for SAP.
2. Click DDIC-Cache.
The SAP Repository Cache table appears, showing all of the element types stored in the cache.
Note:
The
System ID field uniquely identifies an SAP system within one SAP domain. If one or more RFC connections use the same system ID, they will share the same cache. For more information about defining RFC connections, refer to
Configuring Adapter Connections.
Note:If you have configured and enabled an RFC listener, you will also see a 'Local' entry in the System ID. list. The cached elements of this System ID cannot be deleted or modified.
3. To view the names of cached function modules for an SAP system, click the number in the Functionscolumn for the appropriate System ID.
The Cached Functions table appears. To view more details about a function module:
a. Click the name of the function module for which you want to see the function interface.
Adapter for SAP displays a screen that lists the function interface for the selected function module.
b. View the structure definition of the displayed parameters by following the hyperlink in the Table column.
4. To view the names of the cached structure definitions for an SAP system, click the number in the Structurescolumn for the appropriate System ID.
The Cached Structures table appears. To see the structure definition, click the structure name of the structure you want to view.
Adapter for SAP displays a screen that lists the structure definition for the selected function module.
5. To view the names of the cached business objects for an SAP system, click the number in the Business Objects column for the appropriate System ID.
The Cached Business Objects table appears.
6. To view the names of the cached BAPIs for an SAP system (for which ALE information of an SAP system has been checked and extracted), click the number in the ALE Mappings column for the appropriate System ID.
The Cached ALE Mappings table appears.
7. To view the names of the cached IDocs for an SAP system, click the number in the IDocs column for the appropriate System ID.
The Cached IDocs table appears.
Note:
The list also contains BAPIs for which no ALE interface has been generated in the SAP system, but for which the availability has already been checked. This is because Adapter for SAP tries only once to retrieve ALE information. If this retrieval fails, Adapter for SAP retains this fact.
8. After enabling one (or more) RFC listeners, a new entry named LOCAL is listed in theDDIC Cache screen of Adapter for SAP. The LOCAL entry contains four function definitions: WM_PUSH_START_EVENT, WM_PUSH_STOP_EVENT, WM_PUSH_ERROR_EVENT, and WM_PUSH_BUSINESS_DATA and two structure definitions: WMKEYVALUE and WMBUSINESSDATA.
