Getting values out of functionmodule in functionmodule

former_member656551 — Thu, 27 Oct 2022 13:29:48 GMT

Hi experts,

I have a functionmodule in which the functionmodule "BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE" is used. From this functionmodule I now want to use the table "lt_item". Is there a way to get the table without changing the other functionmodule?

Thanks in advance.

Do you want to pass lt_item to the BAPI, which would be a basic abap question, or could you rephrase your requirement that I don't quite understand?

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'
" ...
  TABLES
    goodsmvt_item                 = lt_item
" ...

As Raymond mentioned it is not 100% clear what you are asking for.

Each function module has his own import and export parameters defined.
In the BAPI named above your table structure is based on structure BAPI2017_GM_ITEM_CREATE.

Therefore you need to map the table you get from BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to your own format in different ways:

1) MOVE-CORRESPONDING for structure or table (if your own table uses the field names and DDIC elements

2) LOOP lt_item assigning <ls_item>.

ls_new-matnr = <ls_item>-material.
....
ENDLOOP.

There is no automatic mapping between FMs.

alexander.adam , actually you can create a mapping FM between two structures (using the data element) look at transaction BDBS - Converting Between Int. and Ext. Data Formats and Structures (in SAP Library - BAPI Programming Guide Reference)
