BAPI for creating Vendor Master record

Former Member — Thu, 19 May 2005 13:55:15 GMT

Hi,

Is there a BAPI available to create a vendor in background? I was looking at list of BAPIs in BOR and found a BAPI that creates a vendor online. I am looking for a BAPI that does not call the online transaction.

If there is no BAPI available to do this, is there a Function Module that I could use to create a Vendor?

Hi Vishnu,

The idoc message type: CREMAS allows you to create vendors. You can create an idoc of type CREMAS04 (or CREMAS03, etc. depending upon your release) which will be processed by function module IDOC_INPUT_CREDITOR.

This is an option if you want to use a standard interface for creating vendors.

Hope that helps.

Brad

Hi Brad,

Is using IDocs my only option?

Hi Vishnu,

I had a good look around. I didn't see much that looked interesting.

So unless you wanted to create a BDC, or use the data transfer program RFBIKR00 (which does a BDC after reading your data from a file), I think Idocs are your best option.

Cheers,

Brad
