How to create a follow up (Subsequent Notification) in PM

Prerequisite:

You have a PM notification under which you want to create a child (subsequent or follow up) notification.

Overview:

I wanted to create a subsequent PM notification under a parent notification and could not found any concrete solution for the same which inspired me to write this blog to help fellow developers who are facing a similar problem.

I tried using FM ‘QM06_FM_TASK_CREATE_QM_NOTIFIC’ but it was expecting way too many parameters and even after writing the code it didn’t work as expected so I switched to ‘IQS4_CREATE_NOTIFICATION’ which was much easier to code and worked like a charm.

The code I have written is wrapped in an RFC as I had to call it in an OData service as the integration had to be done from a Fiori application.

Steps:

Create a function module as below:
