VBPA table not getting modified

Former Member — Fri, 12 Aug 2011 08:50:20 GMT

Dear Experts,

I want to update table vbpa for sold to party and shift to party.

I wrote the code as follows,

SELECT SINGLE vbeln kunnr FROM vbak INTO wa_vbak

WHERE vbeln EQ s_vbeln.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

MESSAGE 'Sales Order Does Not Exists' TYPE 'E'.

ELSE.

SELECT SINGLE * FROM kna1 INTO WA_KNA1

WHERE kunnr EQ p_kunnr.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

MESSAGE 'Enter Valid Sold To Party' TYPE 'E'.

ENDIF.

UPDATE vbak SET kunnr = p_kunnr

WHERE vbeln = s_vbeln.

UPDATE vbpa SET kunnr = p_kunnr

ADRNR = WA_KNA1-ADRNR

WHERE vbeln = s_vbeln

AND parvw = 'SP'.

UPDATE vbpa SET kunnr = p_kunnr

ADRNR = WA_KNA1-ADRNR

WHERE vbeln = s_vbeln

AND parvw = 'SH'.

COMMIT WORK.

ENDIF.

BUT it is updating table VBAK only. Please help.

to be honest i cant see the problem in this code snippet why it doesnt work.

BUT the hair on my neck is stiffening when seeing this. Hard updates on VBKA and VBPA?

And finally a commit work which doesnt even check sy-subrc = 0.

Thats not something i would recommend. Try to make use of e.G. BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE or SD_SALESDOCUMENT_MAINTAIN if you want to change change a sales order.

Why are you doing that?

Why are you changing that data directly by sql statament?

I don't think it's good thing to change these partners by this way: there are several tables where these data are the main keys: you risk to have many misalignments.

Anyway the function partner has a convertion routine to convert the code from/to input/output value:

SP and SH are the code for the output values, the input codes are AG and WE: you need to use these.

So VBPA doesn't changed because your query fails

Hi ,

Dont update SAP table directly ... It is not a correct way ..

You might be disturbing data related Directly or indirectly with vbpa table for other table .

SAP never recommend to do update table directly ... You use either bapi or bapi if any ..

Do find on SDn for the same .

Hi Makarand,

congratulations!

You work in a private environment not relevant for any legal requirement at all.

Because if an auditor or tax authority knows what you are doing in your system, it depends only on the value of the orders manipulated if the action is subject to prison sentence or monetary penalty. If your auditors know and let you do, they arte in a similar situation.

Note: If you use SAP transactions it can be always detected who changed what and when.

Regards,

Clemens

Hi,

I dont know why you are updating VBPA like this, But I can tell you why your update query is not working.

Its actually very simple, you are trying to update using parvw equal to "SH and SP". Those values are dispalyed due to conversion exits. so need to use "WE for SH" and "RG for SP" values.

UPDATE vbpa SET kunnr = p_kunnr

ADRNR = WA_KNA1-ADRNR

WHERE vbeln = s_vbeln

AND parvw = 'RG'. " Double check this value at domain level

UPDATE vbpa SET kunnr = p_kunnr

ADRNR = WA_KNA1-ADRNR

WHERE vbeln = s_vbeln

AND parvw = 'WE'.

Hi,

Nitesh is right. We should always need to use the conversion exit for Partner Functions while doing modifications.
