BTE exits to add additional components to the SAP standard system, for example in the form of function modules. There are two

types of interface:

- Publish and Subscribe interfaces

- These give information that specific events have occurred in the SAP standard application and provide the data generated

to external software. However the external software does not return any data to the SAP standard system.

- Process interfaces

These subject business processes to an external control function that is not part of the standard system; in other words the process interfaces interrupt the standard process and deliver data to the SAP application.

A BTE exit is called up in the process, meaning that process modules check the events in Customizing for calling up the BTE exits.

In the BTE method, function modules are called up in specified events, to which they have been assigned in Customizing. The event interface is predefined. To activate the process modules, choose _Settings for Process Interfaces -> Assign Customer Function Modules to Process Interfaces.
