BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN

[Former Member]

Hi,

I need to change the main work center , basic start date and basic end date which are in the header of the maintenance order. I tried using BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN but it is not working . It says Bapi call must have a save or dialog method. Can anyone give a sample code for the same - updating the header details of a maintenance order. Useful answers will be rewarded. Thanks in advance.

Hi Prabaharan,

I am on ECC 6.0...I was looking at one of the hits for this BAPI and came at this Include

/NRX/ALM_ORDER_PROC

which uses the BAPI...I thought it might be of some help to you....Here is a part of the code from above mentioned Include

*--Create lines in method & text table
      CLEAR f_method.
      MOVE sy-tabix TO ref.
      MOVE ref TO f_method-refnumber.
      MOVE 'TEXT' TO f_method-objecttype.
      MOVE 'CREATE' TO f_method-method.
      MOVE order TO f_method-objectkey.
      APPEND f_method.

      CLEAR f_text.
      MOVE order TO f_text-orderid.
      MOVE i_resb-rsnum TO f_text-reserv_no.
      MOVE i_resb-rspos TO f_text-res_item.
      MOVE t_text-langu TO f_text-langu.
      MOVE counter TO f_text-textstart.

*----Add text lines to table
      LOOP AT t_text WHERE item_number EQ i_resb-posnr
                       AND activity EQ i_resb-vornr.
        CLEAR f_lines.
        MOVE t_text-tdformat TO f_lines-tdformat.
        MOVE t_text-tdline TO f_lines-tdline.
        APPEND f_lines.
        counter = counter + 1.
      ENDLOOP.
      counter = counter - 1.
      MOVE counter TO f_text-textend.
      APPEND f_text.
      counter = counter + 1.
    ENDLOOP.

*--Add SAVE line to method
    CLEAR f_method.
    MOVE 'SAVE' TO f_method-method.
    APPEND f_method.

    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'
      TABLES
        it_methods    = f_method
        it_text       = f_text
        it_text_lines = f_lines
        return        = f_return.

*--Check the return structure, ensure no errors occured
    CLEAR f_error.
    LOOP AT f_return WHERE type EQ 'E'.
      MOVE 'X' TO f_error.
    ENDLOOP.

    IF f_error NE 'X'.
      CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
        EXPORTING
          wait   = 'X'
        IMPORTING
          return = f_return.
    ENDIF.

If you haven't done Where-Used List for this BAPI, I suggest you to do it...

Hi Viv,

Thanks for the immediate information. I checked the where used list but it has been coded to add text, but my req is to change the existing header data however I managed to find a solution for this and now the order got updated.

I am pasting the code below,

ata: I_METHODS type table of BAPI_ALM_ORDER_METHOD with header line,

I_HEADER type table of BAPI_ALM_ORDER_HEADERS_I with header line,

I_HEADERUP type table of BAPI_ALM_ORDER_HEADERS_UP with header line,

i_return type table of bapiret2.

i_methods-refnumber = '000001'.

i_methods-OBJECTTYPE = 'HEADER'.

i_methods-METHOD = 'CHANGE'.

i_methods-OBJECTKEY = '000005000018'.

append i_methods.

i_methods-OBJECTTYPE = ' '.

i_methods-METHOD = 'SAVE'.

append i_methods.

i_header-orderid = '000005000018'.

i_header-MN_WK_CTR = 'MPEAST'.

append i_header.

i_headerup-orderid = '000005000018'.

i_headerup-mn_wk_ctr = 'X'.

append i_headerup.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'

TABLES

IT_METHODS = i_methods

IT_HEADER = i_header

IT_HEADER_UP = i_headerup

• IT_HEADER_SRV =

• IT_HEADER_SRV_UP =

• IT_USERSTATUS =

• IT_PARTNER =

• IT_PARTNER_UP =

• IT_OPERATION =

• IT_OPERATION_UP =

• IT_RELATION =

• IT_RELATION_UP =

• IT_COMPONENT =

• IT_COMPONENT_UP =

• IT_TEXT =

• IT_TEXT_LINES =

• EXTENSION_IN =

RETURN = i_return

• ET_NUMBERS =

.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'

• EXPORTING

• WAIT =

• IMPORTING

• RETURN =

.

Hi Sampath,

Do you need to update order header status or operation status?

For updating status use the function module which are discussed in the below link,
