BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE cannot remove item billing block

[Former Member]

I have been able to use function BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE to change the billing block of an item to a new value, but it won't allow me to clear that value.

I have these variables set:

   CLEAR ORDER_ITEM_IN-BILL_BLOCK.        "Update works fine if BILL_BLOCK contains a value

   ORDER_ITEM_INX-BILL_BLOCK = 'X'.

   ORDER_ITEM_INX-UPDATEFLAG = 'U'.

    ORDER_ITEM_IN-ITM_NUMBER = <value from vbap-posnr>.

   ORDER_ITEM_IN-MATERIAL = <value from vbap-matnr>.

   ORDER_HEADER_INX-UPDATEFLAG = 'X'.

   SALESDOCUMENT = <value from vbak-vbeln>.

Any ideas on how to remove the item billing block?  Is this function unable to do it?

Thanks,

I just figured it out.  ORDER_ITEM_INX-ITM_NUMBER also needs to have the value of VBAP-POSNR.  I got it working and the billing block at the item level in the sales order was removed.

I have it working fine moving space to ORDER_ITEM_IN-BILL_BLOCK and don't forget to pass item number to 'X' structure ORDER_ITEM_INX-ITM_NUMBER = <value from vbap-posnr>.
