Create customer date trough class cmd_ei_api - error in test run

Former Member — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 16:27:34 GMT

Hi all,

I try to use class cmd_ei_api to create customer. It works fine but one thing is strange.

When I pass data with test run and customer is in a group with internal nummering system icrease number every time when i run program. Customer is not created ( that is good) but the assigned nummer is lost.

I tried to use method maintain_bapi and maintain.Problem occurs every time.

Do you have the same problem? Do you know solution of this problem?

regards,

SAMPLE CODE:

report zcreate_customer.

I do not know the method that you use, but when I create customers thru IDOC method then I use function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT to get a number from internal number range, I then create write a record into a Z-table for cross reference purposes.

I always check this Z-table if there is already a number assigned before I call this function module.

So I can do several test runs and I always get the same numbers. if I want new numbers, then I just delete the cross reference entries from the z-table

At the begining I don't give number in test run. In this class is method get number or something like that. Unfortunately in test run when you don't give number the next number from range is used and it is reserved. In my opinion it is weird.

Solution this problem is simple. When you put any number in test run it will be good. In my test Vendor numbering range was between 10000 to 20000. I put number 1 in test run and class works fine.

Hi experts, I am using cmd_ei_api to create customer. Each time when I create the customer, for the customer number KUNNR, first the method picks a new number from number range, if I don't supply one in program. Then it makes the necessary checks on customer data. If data check is success, customer is created and everything is okay. But if the check is failed, no customer gets created in the Data base, but the picked number is lost forever. Is there a way to avoid this?

The same happens, even when I ran it in Test Mode(iv_test_run = 'X'). A number is lost irrespective of whether the test run is success or not.

I tried supplying the customer number via the program. I this case also, I had to get a number from the Number Range and supply. As the Method validates whether the supplied number belongs to the right number range, I cannot use any dummy number(not even for a Test run). Also it validates whether a customer exists in KNA1 with the supplied number.

As a work around, now I am supplying the last number of the number range for the test run(which I have hard coded ~not a good practice!!). If this runs error free, I will pick a new number and creates the customer.
