Using generated business object definitions and business object handlers

Use SAPODA to generate business object definitions and business object handlers for each RFC-enabled function that you want to support. You can use the generated objects without any modifications. However, you can manually edit these objects to refine the functionality.

After the objects are generated, you must add the business object definition and its corresponding BAPI-specific business object handler to your WebSphere business integration system's runtime environment.

Important:
You can modify the name of the generated business object as well as the name of its child business objects. To do so, you must edit the definition as a text file rather than in Business Object Designer. If you do change a business object's name, ensure that you also modify all references to the names that you change. Also, if you modify the names of the generated.class file for the business object handler, you must maintain the changes for the application-specific information for the associated business object.
