BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE 415 Q

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I am trying to develop a program which receives necessary data for material document and then recording it into a ZTABLE.

But before designing the layout and other parameters I wanted to use  BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE with constants, which I failed.

I am trying to transfer a material from a WBS stock to another.(after that I want to try multiple materials)

My constants are:

Plant                           :2000

WBS1                        : PR00000611

WBS2                        : PR00000638

Storage location          : E001

Material number          :1000077

Movement type            :415

Special stock indicator: Q

Document date           :30.09.2013

Recording date           :30.09.2013

What am I doing wrong? I am new to ABAP and using BAPI's so I collected pieces of codes to work out.

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Arda

Can you replace the (awful)

IF gm_return[] IS INITIAL.

with a

LOOP AT gm_return TRANSPORTING NO FIELDS WHERE type = 'E' OR type = 'A'.
   EXIT. " or MESSAGE statement (and use a work area)
 ENDIF.
 IF sy-subrc NE 0. " No error was raised

Remember that RETURN may contain S-success messages too (An I-information or a W-warning too)

Hi Arda,

What exactly is the error that you are getting?

I tried to replicate your same code, and it is working fine...as in it is going to the else part of the code and displaying "~ERROR~".

The error message is : "No internal key found for the PSP element PR00000611 in field WBS_ELEM"

[Former Member]

I used the object key of WBS on PRPS table?

Was that wrong?

I recieve no error except for the "~ERROR~" text I added and no document is being created.

[Arun_Prabhu_K]

George,

     You are getting this error because that WBS won't be available in your system.

Hello Raymond,

I did what you asked but should I change ENDIF with ENDLOOP? because it is missing

[Arun_Prabhu_K]

Raymond,

     RETURN[] will be initial in this BAPI on successful completion of material document creation.

     Only on erroneous cases, the return internal table will be filled with messages.

[Arun_Prabhu_K]

Hello Arda Takan.

     Your code seems to be right after the BAPI.

1)  gm_return[] will be initial on successful creation of material document.

     Kindly check what message you are getting in gm_return.

     Instead of just showing ERROR, display the exact error message.

     READ TABLE gm_return WITH KEY type = 'E'.

       IF sy-subrc = 0.

         MESSAGE gm_return-message TYPE 'S' DISPLAY LIKE 'E'.

         leave to screen sy-dynnr.

       ENDIF.

2) Make use of  function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT (Pad preceding zeroes) for material and then pass to goodsmvt_item-material.

3) Are you passing CHAR24 format of WBS to goodsmvt_item-wbs_elem and goodsmvt_item-val_wbs_elem?

Regards.

Hi Arda,

After calling the BAPI, you are checking for an initial return table. That way, even if the BAPI returns a success message, you would still get an error message that you have hard coded.

For further usages too, avoid checking for an initial return table from a BAPI or a BDC. Instead check for MSGTY = 'E' in the return tables.

In this case, it would be helpful if you could share the return table after the BAPI call through the debugger. It would be clearer what the error actually is.

Thanks,

Anupam

Also check whether the WBS element that you are trying to pass exists in your system. If it exists, use a conversion routine to convert to convert it to SAP internal format.

[Arun_Prabhu_K]

Anupam,

     While passing to BAPI, WBS has to be converted to SAP EXTERNAL format (CHAR 24) and passed into goodsmvt_item.

What about I need to transfer multiple materials?

Do I need something like " gm_item_number"?

[anupam_anand]

Hi Arda,

In case you need to pass multiple materials, you need to append the records to the table gm_item for the respective materials along with the respective other values.

Once all the item entries are populated in the table GM_ITEM, you can now call the BAPI.

Thanks,

Anupam
