CHECK_53 - Function module recommendations

REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY

use cl_salv_table=>factory or cl_gui_alv_grid

SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1

use cl_bcs

SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR

use cl_progress_indicator

Using the function module looks like this:

CALL FUNCTION 'SAPGUI_PROGRESS_INDICATOR'
  EXPORTING
    percentage = progress_percent
    text       = progress_text.

CL_PROGRESS_INDICATOR=>PROGRESS_INDICATE provides support for automatically calculating the percentage of the progress. This can be achieved either by providing i_text with a text with three placeholders (&1, &2, &3):

cl_progress_indicator=>progress_indicate(
    i_text               = 'Processed &1 % (&2 of &3 records)'
    i_processed          = current_record
    i_total              = total_records
    i_output_immediately = abap_true ).

Or by using i_msgid and i_msgno with a message with three placeholders (&1, &2, &3):

cl_progress_indicator=>progress_indicate(
    i_msgid              = 'ZMYMSG'
    i_msgno              = '005'
    i_processed          = current_record
    i_total              = total_records
    i_output_immediately = abap_true ).

Both approaches give the following result:

Processed 20 % (1 of 5 records)
