FB02 Question

Former Member — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 20:28:36 GMT

We wrote a program to batch load stuff via FB01 but there was an data load issue. Now we need to relog just the line text (SGTXT) for all teh documents it created. If there a faster way to batch update the line text in FB02 then a BDC program? I have a file of all the documents and line texts it needs to update.

Thanks,

David

What kind of items are these? G/L, vendor, customer or a mixture?

FI documents with a custom doc type.

Using the display/change line items transactions (FBL3N, FBL5N and FBL1N) there is an option on the display:

Environment -> Mass Change -> New values

where you can change the text.

Maybe I didn't explain it well enough. I'm looking to mass update FI documents by document number and update the line text (SGTXT).

Ex:

Doc# Line text

5000432 Facility 1006

5000434 Facility 1243

5000435 Facility 2537

So each document will have it's own different line text. I know I can do a CALL TRANSACTION 'FB02' BDC to update them but that's time consuming so I'm wondering if there's some function or another way to loop a set of FI documents then update the line text. In the original FB01 BDC the line text was off by one record so all the line text got posted to the wrong documents.

There may be a BAPI, but batch input should be pretty quick. I can't think of anything else.
