BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST Problems

[Former Member]

The BAPI_ACC_GL_POSTING_POST is allowing FI documents to be created with invalid vendor, customer, and material numbers. According to a response from an SAP message I filed, SAP says this BAPI checks all "important" data like account number and company code; but for vendor, customer, and material, it's the calling application's responsiblity to validate the data. While SAP may not consider this important, when this data goes to BW, it's validated there and fails to load in BW if incorrect.

Does anyone else have a similar experience or solution?

      obj_key like bapiache02-obj_key,
      obj_sys like bapiache02-obj_sys,
      documentheader like bapiache08,

      accountgl like bapiacgl08
                  occurs 0 with header line,
      currencyamount like bapiaccr08
                  occurs 0 with header line,
      return like bapiret2
                  occurs 0 with header line,
      extension1 like bapiextc
                  occurs 0 with header line,

      t_edidd  like edidd occurs 0 with header line,
      bapi_retn_info  like bapiret2 occurs 0 with header line.

Sudheer,

If you change your code to pass "YADAYADA" in accountgl-CUSTOMER (assuming YADAYADA is not a valid customer), you will see that the FI document will post with that customer on that line item. However if you were to try to enter the same data via FB01, it will not allow YADAYADA as a customer number.

Thanks,

Wardell
