You use STARTING NEW TASK to generate a new task which calls the function module. The
original program continues to run after the remote function call has been started.
The client program in the above example can receive no confirmation messages from the called
function module since IMPORTING, CHANGING or EXCEPTIONS are not possible with CALL and
because the connection is closed right after the CALL. You also cannot use the destination BACK in the
called function module.
If the called function module performs dialogs, the relevant screens are displayed in the client system in
the new session.
Using this technique, you can not only make connections to another remote R/3 System, but you can also
execute remote function modules on any computer in your own R/3 System (with distributed systems).
