BAPI upgradation means, when clent wants to upgrade SAP version to new version,whether all BAPIs will work or not.

Yes that will work

bcoz in every BAPI there r two parameters like extensionsin and extensionsout for enhancements with BAPIs.

so that will not impact the BAPIs during upgradation.

And BAPI will not throw exceptions rather it will hold all the error messages in a return table.

good

go through link, which ll give you idea about the BAPI upgradation.

When we go for upgradation, there might be pozzibility to change the screen elements for transactions depending on the requirement. In that case,our BDC pgm may or may not work (depending on the screen changes they have made). Unless and until we prepare new BDC we cant use the old BDC pgm. But in BAPI, SAP promises that they are going to keep the old BAPI and for new functionality they will provide an upgraded BAPI. Until we write a new BAPI pgm, we can use the exisitng BAPI pgm.

EXCEPTIONS IN BAPIS->

hi,

<b>BAPI's can work for upgradation ....what it means?</b>One of the big plusses for BAPIs is that the interface and function are not supposed to change. This is a big plus when you do upgrades.

Hope it helps.

Reward if helpful.
