BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE - Pass empty values (no data) to the classification field

[Former Member]

Hi there

i´m totally new to SAP and i hope you can help me...

I'm developing a BizTalk-interface to SAP/R3

we use the BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE to change classification in SAP.

my question:

is it possible to pass "empty Values" to a classification that does not allow these Values?

for example:

in SAP

HOUSING_STYLE = Closed (valid Values; Closed, Cooled)

M_000322 = CM (valid Values; CM, CMB, CMI)

with the BAPI-Call we want to update the classifications this way

HOUSING_STYLE = empty value

M_000322=CMB

When we send an epty Value for the HOUSING_STYLE it says that "" cant be found.

is it possible to force the empty Value into the "HOUSING_STYLE" Fields?

We tried several Vales from "/" to " " to "no data". but nothing works.

As far as i know, it is possible if you change the classification manually in SAP itserf to an "empty Value".

I hope you can help me!

Thank you!

Hi,

If your empty value have a description, you can put the description in the field ATWRT.

HOUSING_STYLE = empty value

basically that means HOUSING _STYLE has no value. Hence, don't pass any value for that characteristic.

Edit.

On a second read: i think you mean you want to delete an existing value? If thats the case, simply don't pass the characteristic in the internal table of the function.

Hi,

If you dont want values delete those from the internal table.

delete table ALLOCVALUESCHARNEW  where CHARACT = c_charname.

This way this character from the class will be initialized.

Thanks,

Hi gurus,

could you give me more info about reset the characteristic value to initials value using change BAPI?

Now, passing to a characteristic the initial value, do not get any change.

deleting the record of the feature to reset, I do not get the desired result.

Checking in debug the BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE I see that the table " l_api_val_r_del" is empty.

Any help?

Hi,

You can give empty values to characteristics using single quotes like ' ' .

For BAPI 'BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE' , Pass all the required data.

This BAPI alone does not change the database. To change the database, call BAPI 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' afterwards.

Please refer the Function Module Documentation.

Rajesh.
