Hi,

I think there are 3 table you need to fill. One table with the text and the aother intable table about the entries for eg : operaiton 0010 start line and the end line . 3rd internal table is the Method internal table.

Please let me know if you need any other information.

Regards,

Naveen.

Below code sample is for creating the first operatin text

gs_tline-tdformat = '*'.

gs_tline-tdline = v_text

Append gs_tline TO et_tline.

gs_text-orderid = gv_aufnr.(Order Number)

gs_text-activity = iv_vornr. (Operation)

gs_text-langu = gc_lang. "'E'.

gs_text-textstart = '1'.

gs_text-textend = gv_int. " last line number, ntg but number of entries in the table et_tline

APPEND gs_text TO et_text.

ls_methods-refnumber = '000001'.

ls_methods-objecttype = 'TEXT'.

ls_methods-method = 'CREATE'.

CONCATENATE gv_aufnr lv_vornr INTO ls_methods-objectkey

IN CHARACTER MODE.

APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

ls_methods-refnumber = '000001'.

ls_methods-objecttype = space.

ls_methods-method = 'SAVE'.

APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

ls_header-orderid = gv_aufnr.(Order Number)

APPEND ls_header TO lt_header.

CLEAR ls_header.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'

TABLES

it_methods = lt_methods

it_header = lt_header

it_text = et_tline

return = lt_return

et_numbers = lt_numbers.

I hope this should help.

Regards,

Naveen

Suppose you want to populate texts for two line ( Fill the rest of the columns yoursef )

BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEM_NO_OF_PRODUCTION_RESOURCE = '0001'
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMLANGU   = 'EN'
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMTEXTSTART = 1 " Corresponding start line in the text table
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMTEXTEND    = 3 " corresponding end line in the text table
APPEND BAPI_ALM_TEXT TO IT_TEXT.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEM_NO_OF_PRODUCTION_RESOURCE = '0001'
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMLANGU   = 'EN'
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMTEXTSTART = 4
BAPI_ALM_TEXT-ITEMTEXTEND    = 5
APPEND BAPI_ALM_TEXT TO IT_TEXT.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDFORMAT = '*'.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDLINE = 'item 0001 line 1'
append BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES to IT_TEXT_LINES.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDFORMAT = '*'.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDLINE = 'item 0001 line 2'
append BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES to IT_TEXT_LINES.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDFORMAT = '*'.
BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDLINE = 'item 0001 line 3'
append BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES to IT_TEXT_LINES.

And ofcourse you will need to add save to the method tab as suggested above

BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDFORMAT = '*'.

BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDLINE = 'item 0002 line 1'

append BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES to IT_TEXT_LINES.

BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDFORMAT = '*'.

BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES-TDLINE = 'item 0002 line 2'

append BAPI_ALM_TEXT_LINES to IT_TEXT_LINES.

hi Naveen ,

below i just pasted code for header long text .

wa_et_header-orderid = gv_aufnr.(Order Number)

move 'CREATE' to wa_et_methods-method.

move wa_et_header-orderid to wa_et_methods-objectkey.

wa_et_methods-objecttype = 'HEADER'.

APPEND wa_et_header TO it_header.

CLEAR wa_et_header.

wa_et_methods-refnumber = 1

move 'CREATE' to wa_et_methods-method.

move wa_et_header-orderid to wa_et_methods-objectkey.

wa_et_methods-objecttype = 'TEXT'.

append wa_et_methods to it_methods.

clear wa_et__methods.

wa_et_methods-refnumber = 1

move 'CREATE' to wa_et_methods-method.

move wa_et_header-orderid to wa_et_methods-objectkey.

wa_et_methods-objecttype = 'TEXT'.

append wa_et_methods to it_methods.

wa_et_methods-refnumber = 1

move 'CREATE' to wa_et_methods-method.

wa_et_methods-objecttype = 'OPERATION'.

CONCATENATE gv_aufnr lv_vornr INTO wa_et_methods-objectkey

append wa_et_methods to it_methods.

wa_et__methods-refnumber = '000001'.

Re: Update long text using Bapi_alm_order_maintain

Suppose if it is not working, then once the order is created, you can use FM - SAVE_TEXT for creating the header text.
