Characteristic Value Change BAPI_CHARACT_CHANGE

Former Member — Mon, 18 Apr 2005 16:03:48 GMT

Hi,

Has any one used the bapi BAPI_CHARACT_CHANGE?

I am trying to use this BAPI to insert characteristic values and desccriptions? After passing the parameters, the return parameter gives me correct messages that The characteristic has been changed. But there are no changes in the Database.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_CHARACT_CHANGE'

EXPORTING

charactname = 'AMTER'

CHANGENUMBER =

keydate = sy-datum

TABLES

charactdetailnew = w1

charactdescrnew = charactdescrnew
charactvaluesnumnew = charactvaluesnumnew
charactvaluescharnew = charactvaluescharnew

charactvaluesdescrnew = charactvaluesdescr

charactrestrictions = charactrestrictions

return = return.

Thanks,

Manish

Manish,

You will need to issue a COMMIT. This can be achieved by creating a test sequence in SE37.

Refer to thread:

Hi Manish,

If you are calling these BAPIs via SE37, you will need to create a <b>TEST SEQUENCE</b> (menu Function Module->Test->Test Sequences). This means that you call both BAPI's in the same Logical Unit of Work. Calling them one after the other in SE37 will not work.

Alternatively you could code the calls one after the other in a test ABAP.

Personally, I think the test sequence is easier.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Brad
