BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 error

[Former Member]

Hi all,

While creating the sales order using BAPI - BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2

got the following error message

"Material is not defined for sales org., distr.chan., language EN"

Any suggestion welcome,

Thanks ,

I guess the message is straightforward. Check if, for this material, sales data exist (transaction MM03, pick sales views)

thanks for reply,

I checked that material in table mvke for sales org and disti channel and that material exist .

If i execute that BAPI from se37 using same paramaters then it successfully creates the Sales order.

But in report got the following error message.

Any suggestions welcome,

Come to think of it, I've encountered this problem before, while material was fully extended in sales area. I do not recall the solution but I think tried to put a watchpoint in debugger to stop when sy-msgid and sy-msgno reaches the message in question

I encountered the same problem and solved by changing the format of the material entered to the BAPI. Convert the material to Internal format using the

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = material

IMPORTING

output = wa_orders_in-material.

Example material 8956 is convereted to 0000000000008956 in wa_orders_in-material which is accepted by the BAPI and processed successfully.

Cheers,
