BAPI_BATCH_CREATE

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I'm creating the batches using the <b>'bapi_batch_create'</b>. Now I want some batches in that to be 'RESTRICTED' and some are not. For that I want to use the structure<b>(BAPIBATCHATT)</b> available in that. There is a field in that structure: <b>'DZUSCH'</b> [STATUSKEY]. But I dont know what exactly that field will do. Could you please tell me <b>how</b> can I use this field?

thnx very much.

According to the definition of this field, you should be able to set the value of this field to the character that is for 'Restricted' and that should do the trick.

<i>Short text

Batch status key

Definition

Key determining the status or usability of a batch.

Use

It is possible to define several status keys for a certain status (e.g. restricted-use, blocked) thus permitting a more detailed breakdown according to status.

Check this note on the status field in the documentation of the BAPI itself.

<i>The status of the batch is set in the target system. The batch contains the status that has been specified as the initial status in Customizing for the target system.</i>

Srinivas,

I have checked in my system, they haven't specified anything for the 'Restricted'. It is blank for all the values. In that case how can proceed.

thnx again.

Do they set a batch to restricted online? If not, then how can you do it through program? System has to be configured to be able to set the status. Go through the following IMG path to configure or read more about the status.
