BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEREPLICA creating and changing data always

[Former Member]

Hello,

we are writing a program to extend a material across multiple plants and are using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEREPLICA to do this.

when called, the function module seems to be executing twice. Once to create the material's plant views as specified in the structures and then immediately after to change the same data. It is creating the data fine.. but then in some cases such as the accountign view.. when it goes to change the valatin type it erros as this field is no longer editable.

is this normal? surely there is a flag somewhere or i am not populating the tables correctly - am using function "INS" for all relevant structures.

any help greatly appreciated!

regards

Budgie.

Hi,

Try using UPD instead of INS.

Hi NaughtyBudgie ,

For extending material master to other plants you can use this FM' BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'.

It will works fine for you.
