BAPI or function module instead of CS40

[Former Member]

Hello,

we need to perform automatically mass-assignment of BOM alternatives to configurable materials.

Because of runtime-problems with CS40 as batch, we are looking for a solution to do it via BAPI / function module.

Any advice how to replace the CS40-Batch by call of a BAPI / function module?

Many Thanks in advance.

BAPI_MATERIAL_BOM_GROUP_CREATE might help, I have never used this but found this out using the method to find BAPI for a particular usage. I will provide you the method which I used

Start CS40 go to system --> status.

Double click on transaction

Package is CS

Open this package in SE80

Open business engineering-->Business object types

Find the BO which sounds the most appropriate

I would suggest BUS1080 Material BOM

Double click.

Open methods.

Find the released method with from data or something similar in the name

, Createfromdat2

Position the cursor in it and click the program button

Scroll down to find the bapi used in this method .

Hope this helps.
