'BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY' dont return ATP quantity after calling BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE

[shobhan_rana]

Hello Abap-Gurus,

1. if i call BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY independently it functions well.

2. if i call BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY after BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE to get prices for material and customer comination the Simulation works and returns the prices. However right after i call BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY it does not return the available quantity with the same input of point 1, where it previously returned the available quantity.

Could you clear why BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY is returning 0 as available quantity after calling BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE ?

Best Regards

Hello,

The documentation mentions that this runs the same interface as BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1 bapi-so-simu-doc.jpg
Maybe you can do a BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK and then run the BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY and check.. some updates running hence unable to check myself for now..

Regards,
Vijay

How do you say that BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK will help when it is mearly all about data read?

Done it by preventing not to run the BAPI_AVAILABILITY_CHECK second time for the same material number when it had already happened the Price simulation.
