Adding subcontracting components BAPI_PR_CREATE

[former_member368216]

Hi,

I am trying to create a PR using 'BAPI_PR_CREATE' -- I am able to create a PR without components, if i pass the subcontracting Components(Item cat as 'L'), the return structure comes up with error "Not possible to determine any components". I passed material, Plant, quantit, UOM, batch and change_id eq 'I'. lease, any suggestions...

Thanx,

Ashok

Hello,

For your information, the message ME154 is hardcoded in the System,

The Standard system was programmed that the message has to

be an error, as it is not allowed to create a subcontracting

purchase order without components.

The System works in the following manner :

If you use a material that does in fact have components (BOM),

the message ME154 does not occur. However, if you use a

material that does not have components, then the message ME154

does occur.

To get to the components screen, proceed as follows:

-If the component exist:

Item details -> Select the 'Material data' tab and you should

now see the [Components] button, on the right hand side of the

'Revision level' field. Selecting this will allow you to see

the components.

Or

-you can enter the components.

Please note that if no components exist and you enter the

[Components] then you will need to return from this screen.

Regards,

David
