Manual creation of the function module

In transaction SE80, the function module RFC_GET_STRING must be created in a separate, active function group. The function module should be given a prefix according to the valid naming conventions. In the example shown here, this would be Z_RFC_GET_STRING. In this case the prefix would be Z_. The name must therefore consist of a prefix and RFC_GET_STRING.
