Hello ABAPERS

Hi All

Please could anyone of you who knows help me, below is my problem:

I am using a BAPI BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to make changes to Material Master, now when I run a report to see what changes were made on the Material Master, SAP has stored the changes transaction in table CDHDR-TCODE as 'MM01(BAPI)' or 'MM02(BAPI)'.

I have tried to debug this BAPI to see where this changes transaction in the history table CDHDR is determined and I could not find it. Please see below:

Please anyone who has done or seen this please share, points will be awarded and your help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Ramo

Hi Ramo,

You need to use function modules in order to retrieve the data and CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS should get the data that you need.

(Other useful function modules include:

CHANGEDOCUMENT_DISPLAY

CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ

CHANGEDOCUMENT_READ_HEADERS)

I hope that helps.

Perform a where-used on FM MATERIAL_WRITE_DOCUMENT, then add break-point at calls found, and run your report.

Regards,

Raymond

Hi Raymond

I did all you suggested but It does not seems to be on any of those MATERIAL_WRITE_DOCUMENT function calls.

Thanks though.

Any other ideas where SAP could be writing this info into the change documents tables?

Those documents are created (in update task !) in this FM (*), look at it once again.

What do you exactly want to know, is it Note 1050255 - Transaction code in change documents not actionable or Note 1682898 - Change Document: Detailed T-Code for BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA ?

Regards,

Raymond

(*) Look at transaction SCDO for change objects and there position at MATERIAL and navigate to FM.

Run the bapi with ST05 trace switched on. You should be able to drill down from the report on the updates to CDHDR and CDPOS to find the code.

Hi Raymond

The MATERIAL_WRITE_DOCUMENT wher-used-list did the trick thanks a lot...

Much appreciated.
