BAPI_PO_CHANGE change two fields simultaneously

Hi,

I am having a problem with BAPI_PO_CHANGE and I was wondering if anyone can help me.

I am trying to use this BAPI to change the plant of a specific line of a purchase order, and at the same time, change the WBS element.

The problem is that old (existing) WBS element belongs to the old plant, so it gives me an error message before it changes the WBS element as well, so is seems that the BAPI does not do both jobs simultaneously.

For now, I overcome the problem by performing a batch input in me22n screen, but it is extremely slow, so I would appreciate any help on this.

Is there any way to make this BAPI perform two tasks together?

Dear Sanket,

Thanks for your responce. I already tried to call the Bapi twice, but the problem is that the one field change is linked to the other, so each one of them , on their own ends in error. To be more specific, I am changing "werks" of a line item , and its wbs element. If I change werks first, then an error occurs on the old wbs element belonging to the old werks, and so on.

I would appreciate any ideas.

Perhaps you could avoid a COMMIT WORK between the 2 changes? For the system they both change at once then.
