Dear all,

I want to delete Bank in same way as with BAPI_BANK_CREATE but delete.

how can I do it? I didn't find the proper one BAPI for this purpose.

Thanks

Use BAPI_BANK_CHANGE

BANK_DETAIL-BANK_DELETE = 'X'.

Hello Peter,

I 'deleted' bank in such way, by means of BAPI_BANK_CHANGE,

but it has no effect, also when I use BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.

Does it take long time to delete a bank?

I guess it will not delete a bank if it is still used somewhere. Did you check the return values for error messages after the bapi call ?

And since it is a deletion indicator, the data is not deleted but FLAGGED for deletion.

An archiving program can delete it permanently.

Hi,

You can use the Tcode   FI06 to delete the bank.

Hi,

I would like to use a function or bapi to delete bank automatically, without any user actions, is it possible?

Did you try BAPI_BANK_SAVEREPLICA  as well as BAPI_BANK_CHANGE setting field BANK_DETAIL-BANK_DELETE (moved to BNKA-LOEVM), did you check RETURN values, were you able to simulate deletion of the bank with transaction FI06 ?

Hello,

how can I use this transaction 'FI06' to delete a bank? I could not do it.

BAPI and transactions will not delete records in database but set a flag for suppression.

To actually delete records from database, you must execute SARA transaction "Archiving".

Of course SAP put some constraints on this (no more documents/master data using this reference for database integrity) Read some documents like Introduction to Data Archiving (CA-ARC) til you read Step 3: Running Delete Program.

Hi,

Please use FM BANK_MARK_FOR_DELETION and also read documents available for this function module.

If you do not want to set deletion flat and you want to delete it from the table BNKA, then use SAP Standard Archiving functionality, use Transaction Code F61A and create a variant to archive bank data.

Can I set some flag to set the bank invisible? When I use BAPI_BANK_GETLIST I should not see the bank, which was marked for deletion.
