call a BAPI function for twice

former_member220801 — Thu, 26 Jan 2006 04:50:37 GMT

I need to create a pair of article document by using 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'. If the second article document has error, the first one should be rollback.

However, when I call the function for the second time, an error said that the function cannot be called until a work is committed for the previous function call. But once I called 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT', the first document cannot be rollback even though I found errors when creating the second document.

I wonder if there are any ways to achieve this? Thanks!

(I know that I can create a single document with 2 items in it... but in my case, I need to to create 2 separate documents)

I guess you can try this.

Call first 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE' in test run i.e. set the test flag.

If it gives success call second 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE' in test run.

If this also give success then call both without test flag set.

then u can commit both with 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.

Hi!

This is not possible in a direct way: one goods receipt is a complete transaction, you can't call a 2nd transaction without doing a commit beforehand.

But the workaround Mithlesh proposed is quite good. Just a small performance improvement:

- Call the 2nd in test mode

- If test is OK, call 1st without test

- If 1st is OK, commit work

- If 1st was OK, book 2nd (+ commit work)
