BAPI '/AFS/BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I am trying to create material using BAPI '/AFS/BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'.

When I am executing the BAPI from code it is giving error 'No description Transferred'. Error 148 from message class 'MG'

But when I test the BAPI from SE37 it works fine.

remember to populate the "materialdescription" table passed to the BAPI

i copied my source code below.

Please note that you would need to adjust the code to your configuration on your system. As the material types, distribution channels, plants, storagelocation etc, might differ.

Hope it helps.
