Functionality
You use this function module to start the configuration of an object.
The function module first initializes the configurator and deletes allglobal variables and tables of the configurator.
Then it creates an instance for the ROOT object and copies all defaultvalues to it.
If the interface already contains external input data, the functionmodule now sets this data for the instance. (This currently onlyapplies to the characteristic values of the ROOT object.)
The object dependencies of the instance are taken into account.
The function module returns the temporary identification of theinstance of the ROOT object.

Notes
Only one configuration profile can be maintained for the ROOT object.
An application (for example, SD01) must be maintained in the settingsfor the ROOT object.
Since this BAPI is called without a reference to environment data,configuration cannot be carried out, for example, for the data of anorder item or order header.

Further information
