VA42 function module to change Target value

thomasmakkink — Fri, 20 Dec 2019 14:29:07 GMT

Hi all,

We have our own transaction where we want to be able to change the "Target value" in a contract (as in transaction VA42).

I have looked around, and all answers for modifying in VA42 revolve around BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE or BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE. But none of these has a field of the same type as the field I want to change.
I also tried debugging the transaction by setting a break point on command "CALL FUNCTION" but it takes for ever...

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi thomasmakkink,

Try this BAPI,

BAPI_CONTRACT_CHANGE

Check in the export parameter you have fields to populate the target Value.

Regards

Hi,

I don't see it there. Also not sure that that BAPI is for the "type" of contract I'm using. Not exactly sure functionally what kind of contract I'm talking about, maybe it's a sales document.

Anyways, your function module takes PURCHASINGDOCUMENT of type EBELN, but I'm using a SALESDOCUMENT of type VBELN_VA (as in Transaction VA42).

I am confused - what is wrong with using TARGET_VAL in CONTRACT_ITEM_IN in BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE?

Just convert your variable to the format required by the BAPI.

I used a SE37 sequence and it works just fine...
