BAPI - Sales Order Create

Former Member — Fri, 06 Jun 2014 05:38:10 GMT

Hello everyone,

I am using BAPI 'BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2' for sales order creation.

I want create a sales order for which Contract start date and Contract end date are required.

My concern is I am not able to find the structure and the field names for these two fields in the BAPI.

I have read the documentation for the BAPI but could not locate these two fileds.

Please advice me as soon as possible.

Awaiting for your response.

- Nikhil.

Hi Nikhil

please try this if you can get it through

BAPISDHD1-CT_VALID_F and BAPISDHD1-CT_VALID_T.

but i will prefer you to use

BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE.

Thanks Sanjeev Kumar for quick reply.

I will validate your suggestion.

You have suggested BAPI for contract. But I am interested in BAPI for sales order creation.

My understanding is both are different. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Regards

Hi Nikhil,

for BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 you have to search on SCN , you will get how to implement it , the field i have suggested shall work in it for Contract Start date and Contract End Date.

Please work on it , i hope you will get what you need.

Vijay, Mohammad and Sanjeev,

You all suggested the same solution. But it didn't worked.

I tried following,

wa_head-ct_valid_f = exl_wa-ct_valid_f .
wa_head-ct_valid_t = exl_wa-ct_valid_t .

wa_headx-ct_valid_f = 'X'.
wa_headx-ct_valid_t = 'X'.

No luck

Hi Nikhil,

please debug your code and see that you are getting values in that fields or not.

Hi Nikhil,

It should work.. can you hard code the date and see?? or just put the date in debugger and see whether it is getting reflected...

Hi Nikhi,

Check date format and validations for date format.

Thanks

Vijay

Sanjeev Kumar, I have debugged the code and have confirmed that values are correct.

Viswanathan Srinivasan, I also tried hard coding values, it didn't worked.

Vijay Vikram, date format is yyyymmdd. what do you mean by validation?

Hi Nikhil,

so what is the concern, if you are getting your data in above fields.

Re: BAPI - Sales Order Create

Sanjeev,

Those two fields, Contract Start date and End date, are not updated in the sales order.

Rest of the fields like Purchase order date is being populated in SO.

Check screen shot for reference.

Yes Sanjeev

Hi Nikhil,

its common problem with using that bapi, what i will suggest you to first check your data for consistency like data formats you have used in your flat file , and if everything is ok, then search in this forum for any ulternate solution.

Hi,

Try tis,

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
EXPORTING
input = object
IMPORTING
output = object.

Perhaps using function module SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE can be a solution.

Or perhaps try to use a BADI to enforce populating these fields (meaning you have to temporarliy store the input file in a table which you can read in the BADI).
