BAPI to create multiple Internal Orders

former_member669323 — Tue, 31 Mar 2020 09:11:55 GMT

Hi,

I am having a requirement to create multiple internal orders in KO01 transaction. I found that BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE can be used to create single order at a time.

Could you please suggest a BAPI that could allow to pass internal table as input so that, creation of multiple internal order is possible. It would help us to increase the performance to a greater extent.

Thanks,

Hariharan Ravichandran

Hello hariharan_93

I don't think you are going to find an function release for customers to mass create internal orders. As you noticed BAPI_INTERNALORDER_CREATE creates single internal order only.

The BAPI uses internally KAUF_ORDER_CREATE function that also create a single internal order only.

I guess you'll have to stick to individual creation.

hariharan_93 As there is only a BAPI to create one order at a time, as your requirement is "It would help us to increase the performance to a greater extent", you can:

Analyze why the performance is bad.
Call the BAPI in parallel threads.

Hi sandra.rossi

Those are sound recommendations. I wonder if the performance is really such an issue here. I don't see mass creation of internal orders to be performed on ongoing basis. It's more of a one time or once in a period task.

The OP's main concern is the performance. Based on the fact that there's only a BAPI to create one order at a time, the workaround is then to either solve the performance issue by analyzing the cause (e.g. database missing index, etc.) or create the internal orders in parallel threads.

NB: I initially misunderstood "sound", it's why I seem repeating myself, but it's fine now 😉
