BAPI Extension Structures

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can any body tell me how to find the BAPI Extension structures for a BAPI. for example BAPI_TE_MEPOHEADER and BAPI_TE_MEPOITEM in case of BAPI_PO_CREATE1. Also i found the statement in the SCN thread i.e BAPIPAREX+30 =  BAPI_TE_MARA in a sample code.what does it mean. I would like to know how to Use Extensionin and Extensionout parameters with example.

Thanks in advance

Custom fields may be passed using EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONOUT parameters of the BAPI function module. This example in SAP Library shows how to fill EXTENSIONIN when there are few custom fields, as SAP says in its example: "take care that you have 960 bytes in pieces of 240 byte. Luckily we have less than 240 byte so we need only one move".

So that to work all the time, you may call the following routine to ease the initialization of EXTENSIONIN parameter:

DATA ls_extensionin TYPE bapiparex.

DATA lt_extensionin TYPE TABLE OF bapiparex.

DATA ls_extensioninx TYPE bapiparex.

DATA lt_extensioninx TYPE TABLE OF bapiparex.

DATA ls_bapi_te_mara TYPE bapi_te_mara.

DATA ls_bapi_te_marax TYPE bapi_te_marax.

ls_extensionin-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARA'.

ls_bapi_te_mara-material = lv_matnr.

ls_bapi_te_mara-zzfld01  = lv_zzfld01.

ls_bapi_te_mara-zzfld02  = lv_zzfld02.

PERFORM transfer_to_extensionin USING ls_bapi_te_mara CHANGING ls_extensionin.

APPEND ls_extensionin TO lt_extensionin.

ls_extensioninx-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARAX'.

ls_bapi_te_marax-material = lv_matnr.

ls_bapi_te_marax-zzfld01  = 'X'.

ls_bapi_te_marax-zzfld02  = 'X'.

PERFORM transfer_to_extensionin USING ls_bapi_te_marax CHANGING lt_extensioninx.

APPEND ls_extensioninx TO lt_extensioninx.

Appending Customer Fields (SAP Library - Customer Enhancement and Modification of BAPIs (CA-BFA))

[ThangaPrakash]

Hello Malikarjun,

To find the BAPI extension structures of a BAPI use below step.

1) Find the package of the BAPI in which it is stored.

2) Goto SE11 and give BAPI_TE_* in the data type and press F4.

3) Click on structures

4) You will get a huge list of structures. click on new selection

5) In the pop up provide the package name from step 1 and press OK.

6) Now you will get a list of structures related to that BAPI in step1.

Regards,

Thanga
