bapi_po_change system messages - error or warning control

[Former Member]

hi,

I have a problem regarding the control of the W/E attribute in purchasing system messages.

I've changed the message category from E to W in customizing,

MM->purchasing->environment data->define attribute of system messages.

for example, i've changed message 088 in APP area 06 to W.

when i execute the bapi i still get an error for this message.

thanks,

Oren.

Hi

U should check if the message type is determined dynamically by customizing or statically, i.e it's hardcoded in abap program

i don't think these messages are hardcoded into the bapi.

how can i check this? (aside from viewing the code)

Do you get the message as error when you trying to change the PO online using standard SAP transaction? Did you configure the messages with different versions? If so, you may need to update your user profile with the parameter ID MSV with the version. Version will control the same message to be error message for one user and warning for another.

hi,

yes, i get the message when using me22n as well.

i didn't define any versions for the messages, so there's no need to define the id.

i've even defined a new version group and tried using the msv paramter, it still doesn't work.
