BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

[former_member579227]

Hi all,

this is the part of code where I set to '20' the status of material 'AL1001' in division/plant 'AOI1'. It work well. Now, I have to set the same status to the default/null/void value ''. I write '' instead of '20', but it doesn't work. why?

• part of code ****

testata-material = 'AL1001'.

testata-purchase_view = 'X'.

tb_marc-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marc-pur_status = '20'.

tb_marcx-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marcx-pur_status = '20'.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

headdata = testata

plantdata = tb_marc

plantdatax = tb_marcx

IMPORTING

return = tb_ret

Gilbert,

Why don't you try clearing the value in tb_marc-pur_status = '20'rather than initializing it to blank. May be it would work.

Regards,

Abhijeet.

Because if a field has a clear value then the BAPI don't update that field.

In my situation, if the field tb_marc-pur_status is null or void or '' or clear, the 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA' don't update that field.

Exist another way to update a field to ''?

How are you testing the bapi?

Did you write a program?

Are you using the same material for testing?

[former_member579227]

First case (right, itipudate the value to '20')

REPORT ztest.

DATA testata LIKE bapimathead.

DATA tb_marc LIKE bapi_marc.

DATA tb_marcx LIKE bapi_marcx.

DATA tb_ret LIKE bapiret2.

testata-material = 'AL1001'.

testata-purchase_view = 'X'.

tb_marc-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marc-pur_status = '20'.

clear tb_marc-pur_status.

tb_marcx-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marcx-pur_status = '20'.

clear tb_marcx-pur_status.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

headdata = testata

plantdata = tb_marc

plantdatax = tb_marcx

IMPORTING

return = tb_ret

.

IF tb_ret-type = 'E'.

WRITE:/ 'Error Message ', tb_ret-message.

ELSE.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.

WRITE:/ 'Update eseguito'.

ENDIF.

************************************************

Second case (wrong. It don't update the value)

REPORT ztest.

DATA testata LIKE bapimathead.

DATA tb_marc LIKE bapi_marc.

DATA tb_marcx LIKE bapi_marcx.

DATA tb_ret LIKE bapiret2.

testata-material = 'AL1001'.

testata-purchase_view = 'X'.

tb_marc-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marc-pur_status = ''.

clear tb_marc-pur_status.

tb_marcx-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marcx-pur_status = ''.

clear tb_marcx-pur_status.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

headdata = testata

plantdata = tb_marc

plantdatax = tb_marcx

IMPORTING

return = tb_ret

.

IF tb_ret-type = 'E'.

WRITE:/ 'Error Message ', tb_ret-message.

ELSE.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'.

WRITE:/ 'Update eseguito'.

ENDIF.

hi,

Try this code it may work,if we want to update any entry in the plantdata(tb_marc) the corresponding entry in the plantdatax(tb_marcx) must be set to 'X'.

tb_marc-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marc-pur_status = ' '.

<b>tb_marcx-plant = 'AOI1'.

tb_marcx-pur_status = 'X'.</b>

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

headdata = testata

plantdata = tb_marc

plantdatax = tb_marcx

IMPORTING

return = tb_ret
