Hi Abhishek,

Where did u defined ur return parameter. It should be defined in TABLES parameter of type BAPIRET2 and as mandatory field(Pass value). Also check whether ur FM and FG is active or not.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Short Text

BAPI &1: BAPI function module &2 has no return parameter

Diagnosis

The system checks that the RETURN parameter has been defined in both the

BOR and in the function module. The parameter must refer to one of the

BAPI return structures (all planned reference structures can be used for

BAPIs up to and including Release 4.6B; but from Release 4.6C only

BAPIRET2 can be used).

The BOR parameter must be type EXPORT (one line or multi-line) and the

function module parameter must be type EXPORT (if one line) or type

TABLE (if multi-line).

Procedure

Create a RETURN parameter for the function module. Also define the

reference of the BOR parameters to the function module parameter in the

BOR ("Name in function module").

Note that only incompatible changes can be made to BAPIs already

released and delivered.

Find out about enhancing or modifying BAPIs that have already been

delivered by calling the BAPI Explorer (Tools -> BusinessFramework ->

BAPI Explorer) and reading the project form "Project to change an

existing BAPI".

Further notes

For more information see the BAPI Programming Guide in the SAP Library

under CA-BFA.
