Get ENH Xrefs

This workflow provides an example of using the Generic RFC Call action to call a remote function named /ICORP/RFC_GET_ENH_XREFS, which is provided with LiveCompare. Given a set of objects and a list of enhancement naming patterns, the workflow creates the selection criteria for the call, then calls the RFC. The RFC reads the SAP table ENHINCINX and returns a cross-reference table that links the input objects to any enhancements that match the naming patterns.

The results are stored in the Enhancements Found Table dataset, which stores enhancement data from SAP table ENHINCINX that matches the input selection criteria. The table has the following columns:

Column Description
ENHNAME Enhancement name.
PROGRAMNAME Program name.
METHODNAME Method name.
ENHINCLUDE Include name.
