BAP BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE returning material

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to return material to vendor with movement type 122 with reference to an existing Material document (REF_DOC) and item (REF_DOC_IT). The function seems to work fine and I do get the new material document created for movement type 122 but the BAPI also returns to vendor the components of the material too whereas I only want to return the material I give in the input table GOODSMVT_ITEM. The materials I return have BOM. I do not want to return all the components of the material. Any thoughts on just returning the material and not the associated components?

I resolved this myself.

Here is what I did.

In table GOODSMVT_ITEM of the BAPI, I entered a line for the returning material with the returning quantity and a line for each of the component material.

The following fields of the GOODSMVT_ITEM were field for each of the component material which will not be returned.

• identification of the document line (LINE_ID)
• identification of the document line of the Parent material (PARENT_ID)
• Material number
• Plant
• Storage location
• Quantity in unit of entry(This was 0 for the components, since they are not getting returned)

I hope this helps.
