BAPI_PR_CREATE creation indicator

[giancarla_aguilar]

Hello.

I have a Create PR Upload program where I used FM "BAPI_PR_CREATE". I filled the neccesary fields on structures PRITEM, PRITEMX, PRITEMEXP, PRACCOUNT, PRACCOUNTX, PRHEADER and PRHEADERX. The value on the field PRHEADER-CREATE_IND is 'R', which is a valid value for that field (ref. field EBAN-ESTKZ). I also assigned PRITEMEXP-CREATE_IND = 'R'. But I get the return msg "Creation indicator is invalid". Somewhere in method PROCESS_RULES of class LCL_RULE_INTERPRETER, it clears the Creation Indicator field (ESTKZ). Did I miss something in the parameters? Is there a sap note related to this problem?

Below are snipets of my structure assignment:

gs_prheader-pr_type = gt_updata-bsart.

gs_prheader-general_release = 'X'.

gs_prheader-create_ind = 'R'.

gt_pritem-preq_item = gt_updata-bnfpo.

gt_pritem-pur_group = gt_updata-ekgrp.

gt_pritem-preq_name = gt_updata-afnam.

gt_pritem-short_text = gt_updata-txz01.

gt_pritem-plant = gt_updata-ewerk.

gt_pritem-matl_group = gt_updata-matkl.

gt_pritem-quantity = gt_updata-menge.

gt_pritem-unit = gt_updata-meins.

gt_pritem-preq_date = gv_dstart.

gt_pritem-del_datcat_ext = 'D'.

gt_pritem-deliv_date = ld_ddate.

gt_pritem-rel_date = gv_dstart.

gt_pritem-preq_price = gt_updata-epein * gt_updata-menge.

gt_pritem-price_unit = gt_updata-epein.

gt_pritem-acctasscat = gt_updata-knttp.

gt_pritemexp-preq_item = gt_updata-bnfpo.

gt_pritemexp-doc_type = gt_updata-bsart.

gt_pritemexp-doc_cat = 'B'.

gt_pritemexp-create_ind = 'R'.

gt_pritemexp-pur_group = gt_updata-ekgrp.

gt_pritemexp-preq_name = gt_updata-afnam.

gt_pritemexp-short_text = gt_updata-txz01.

gt_pritemexp-plant = gt_updata-ewerk.

gt_pritemexp-matl_group = gt_updata-matkl.

gt_pritemexp-quantity = gt_updata-menge.

gt_pritemexp-unit = gt_updata-meins.

gt_pritemexp-preq_date = gv_dstart.

gt_pritemexp-deliv_date = ld_ddate.

gt_pritemexp-subj_to_r = ' '.

gt_pritemexp-acctasscat = gt_updata-knttp.

gt_pritemexp-general_release = 'X'.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Please give the value BAPIMEREQHEADER-CREATE_IND = 'R' and pass blank value to BAPIMEREQHEADERX-CREATE_IND.

It works fine and creates the PR. Do not forget to commit work for the BAPI.
