actualize EAN data using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

[Former Member]

Hi,

I've tried to insert EAN barcode data using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to modify material master data, however without success. I get an error saying that i should specify the EAN for the base unit first.

Initially i was just passing the table INTERNATIONALARTNOS, but then i've started also passing UNITSOFMEASURE and UNITSOFMEASUREX:

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

HEADDATA = header

TABLES

UNITSOFMEASURE = ti_marm

UNITSOFMEASUREX = ti_marmx

INTERNATIONALARTNOS = ti_mean

RETURNMESSAGES = mensagens

Can anyone help me with this one? Does anyone have some sample code for such a case?

Thanks

Hi Bruno!

I hope you try to maintain an EAN for the base unit, not an alternative unit...

At least in Retail it's a little bit nasty: first EAN should be maintained via MARM structure, all additional EANs should come with MEAN structure.

Maybe you start with a test of just one EAN in MARM(X) on base unit level.

Hi Christian,

I've tried just passing MARM:

header-material = material.

header-BASIC_VIEW = 'X'.

ti_marm-ean_upc = codigos-codigo_barras.

ti_marm-alt_unit = 'KI'.

append ti_marm.

ti_marmx-ean_upc = 'X'.

ti_marmx-alt_unit = 'X'.

append ti_marmx.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

HEADDATA = header

TABLES

UNITSOFMEASURE = ti_marm

UNITSOFMEASUREX = ti_marmx

RETURNMESSAGES = mensagens

.

and as a result it does no modifications of the material master data. Can't understand what's missing.

are you using BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.

if not use that FM, after the BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.

Hi Vijay,

The problem is not at that level, since it's BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA that generates the message that no modifications where made.

Hi,

(now) I had a look in docu of this FM: you have to fill both structures, marm and mean in case of new eans for an article.

Sorry for confusing this, but try your original version <i>for the base unit.</i> Hopefully this will work.

Hi All, I need this bapis to create new material in SAP, I'm got stuck with the following error:

The field MARA-EAN11 is defined as a required field; it does not contain an entry

I have include all structure that to fill EAN value, but still I have the same problem.

This is my program.
