Hi Rajat,

For standard transactions like mm01 and mm02 I can confirm that the bapis can do the same work which you are doing from screen using your bdcs.

try using BAPIS

BAPI_MATERIAL_EDIT

BAPI_RETAILMATERIAL_CREATE

and see if it helps.

Rajat try this and check out what all bapis you have as an option to use.

1. Goto se37

2. Without typing anything press F4

3. Go to information system

4. Give BAPI against name and aterial in description

5. press enter

You will get a list of all possible bapis you can use.

Reward Points if helpful.

regards,

Vikas

Hi...

It is better to use the BAPI

BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

in this case.

Reward if Helpful.
