Former Member — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 14:26:42 GMT

Hi Experts,

I've one structure which is used in many BAPIs.

I want to change the field lengh of one of the field in the structure.

When I'm activating it, it is giving me message BAPI-structure: invalid change.

Can you help me on this issue ?

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

My structure is Z Structure (Custom Object ) and it is used in Custom BAPi's.

Look at [BAPI Programming Guide (CA-BFA)|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/CABFABAPIREF/CABFABAPIPG.pdf]

If your BAPI is released, you wont be allowed to change the structure, so you should un-release the BAPI, BOR and FM before updating the structure parameter.
