problem using BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE

Former Member — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 04:04:14 GMT

We are having an issue in using this BAPI on mass creating of production orders BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE.

I'm getting this message:

E CO	027 Forward scheduling (enter start date)

I already place the date on BASIC_START_DATE but it keeps getting error. Further debug it would seem this field is for GSTRP, and it is looking for GSTRS (schedule start date) instead.

the fields that I populated are

MATERIAL

PLANT

ORDER_TYPE

BASIC_START_DATE

QUANTITY

as I would normally do on tcode co01. anyone has encountered and solved this kind of issue? if i choose BDC approach, i'm getting too much dynamic messages.

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Carlo.

Hi,

As you have debugged and found out, the field that is being expected by the BAPI to successfully create a production order, please provide the field from your driver program/input. In foreground execution of the transaction, certain fields are automatically filled based on the configurations but while using BAPIs this is not possible, so whatever fields are expected by BAPI, we have to provide it.

Regards,

Kartik

Thanks.

unfortunately the bapi import parameters doesn't have schedule date field. it only has the basic start date as field.

where should I input the schedule date?

Have you checked the BAPI documentation?

The parameter ORDER_DATA transfers the data about the creation of an order.

The following fields in the structure must be filled as a minimum:

MATERIAL: Header material

PLANT: Production plant

ORDER_TYPE: Order type

QUANTITY: Quantity to be produced

At least one of the following basic dates must be entered (unless you schedule from the current date):

BASIC_START_DATE (possibly also the BASIC_START_TIME): Basic start date (Date and time)
BASIC_END_DATE (possibly also the BASIC_END_TIME): Basic end date (Date and time)

Hi All.

I appreciate trying to help me.

I'm looking for these fields on the bapi: (from tcode CO01)

yes I could (and I am) entering the basic start date but still it is looking for the schedule start date.

BDC is also a pain as to many checking flying around that is stopping the transaction as messages and different screen is always popping up.

Thanks for all the help, I am quite new with the PP transactions.

I've ended up with BDC and including this:

SET PARAMETER ID 'FLAG_DIALOG_STATUS' FIELD abap_true.

Setting this up prevents the log screen to show as if I was doing BAPI.

Hi,

if you use BAPI_PRODORD_SCHEDULE after BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE you can change the SCHED_TYPE. You have in the customizing (OPU3) a value for schedule type = Backwards.

Therefore you give in BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE any date in BASIC_END_DATE followed by BAPI_PRODORD_SCHEDULE with the correct startdate and schedule type.
