BAPI_DOCUMENT_DELETE ?

Former Member — Fri, 30 Jun 2006 15:14:12 GMT

I am using this BAPI FM , bapi_document_delete to delete a document . When i execute it with the relevant parameters and debug to see the RETURN table , it doesnt get any message in the table ( no S , E or W ) message .

I am also calling the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT . When i go back to see the document , it still exists ?

It will not delete the entry physically from the database.

It will set a deletion indicator for that document, so that you cannot see that document in any Change/Display transaction.

Hi ,

I think there must be some message or indication in the display transaction also ,saying that this document is marked for deletion.

It should not come in change transaction at all.

Yes , that message is displayed and going through cv02n (change) it only displays the doc in non editable mode with the message , doc is marked for deletion .

Then how are the docs actually deleted , becaiuse after removing these documents , i have to recreate them and i tried with one ( deleted it ( set the indicator ) ) and tried creating a new one , it still says the 'Document already exists ' ?

So, it is working okay.

Go to the master table DRAW and see the value for LOEDK field. If it is 'X', then it means it is practically deleted.
