CreateFunctionModule

Creates a new ABAP function module within an existing function group, with initial state. Specify function group name, function module name, optional description, and transport request.

Instructions

Operation: Create. Subject: FunctionModule. Will be useful for creating function module. Create a new ABAP function module within an existing function group. Creates the function module in initial state.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
function_group_nameYesParent function group name (e.g., ZTEST_FG_001)
function_module_nameYesFunction module name (e.g., Z_TEST_FUNCTION_001). Must follow SAP naming conventions (start with Z or Y, max 30 chars).
descriptionNoOptional description for the function module
transport_requestNoTransport request number (e.g., E19K905635). Required for transportable packages.
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, so the description bears full burden. It states 'Creates the function module in initial state' but lacks details on side effects, permissions, or constraints. Important behavioral aspects like whether the function module is activated or just created are left implicit.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness2/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description contains redundant phrasing: 'Operation: Create. Subject: FunctionModule. Will be useful for creating function module.' These sentences add no value and could be omitted. The useful information is compressed into the last sentence.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Given the tool's complexity (4 parameters, no output schema), the description is incomplete. It does not explain return values, success criteria, or clarify the transport request requirement. The context is insufficient for an agent to fully understand the tool's behavior.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema coverage is 100% with clear parameter descriptions (e.g., naming conventions). The description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so a baseline score of 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states it creates a new ABAP function module within an existing function group, which distinguishes it from sibling tools like CreateFunctionGroup. However, the first sentence 'Operation: Create. Subject: FunctionModule. Will be useful for creating function module.' is redundant and somewhat tautological, preventing a score of 5.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool compared to alternatives (e.g., CreateFunctionGroup, CreateClass). It does not mention prerequisites, restrictions, or when not to use it.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
