BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATEFROMDATA Contract START/END date not updated

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am creating contract using BAPI “<b>BAPI_CONTRACT_CREATEFROMDATA</b>” for VA41. It contract created fine, but only issue is It’s not populating <b>“CONTRACT START” and CONTRACT END”</b> dates on header. Do anyone know which field I should be filling in “CONTRACT_HEADER_IN” to update this fields.

Thanks in advance.

Tim

Have you tried these?

CT_VALID_F

CT_VALID_T

Make sure that you are also filling the corresponding fields in the CONTRACT_HEADER_INX structure with "X".

Hi Rich,

YES! I did try CT_VALID_F and CT_VALID_T update along with CONTRACT_HEADER_INX. It updates date fields in table “VBAK”, but contract start/end dates are in table VEDA. Thanks for your reply.

Hi, please try filling CONTRACT_DATA_IN and CONTRACT_DATA_INX. If you look at the structures, they do resemble fields in the VEDA table.

Remember, these are TABLES parameters, so you will need to APPEND to the table before passing to the BAPI.

How about fields CON_ST_DAT and CON_EN_DAT of the CONTRACT_DATA_IN parameter?

Hi Rich,

Apologies! YES you are right CONTRACT_DATA_IN/CONTRACT_DATA_INX need to be filled. I got mixed up with CONTRACT_ITEMS_IN. Thanks a lot it works fine.
