Create MPN material usingBAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

[antony_john]

I am trying to create a Manfacturer Part Number using the BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA BAPI, even though I am passing the material type HERS and also passing other required values like

MATL_GROUP.

MOVE 'X' TO ls_MatDets_op-MATL_GROUP.

MOVE 'MPNPART' TO ls_MatDets-MANU_MAT.

MOVE 'X' TO ls_MatDets_op-MANU_MAT.

and the internal material number

MOVE lv_matnr TO ls_MatDets-INV_MAT_NO.

MOVE 'X' TO ls_MatDets_op-INV_MAT_NO.

The BAPI gives me an error

Operation not possible (e.g. incorrect material type or plant)

has anyone used this BAPI to create a HERS material reference

Please let me know, it would be of great help

ok guys

I figured out how to get that done, just incase anyone faces this problem

you dont need to select the BASIC_VIEW

MOVE 'NEWHERSMATNR' TO ls_Header-MATERIAL.

MOVE 'A' TO ls_Header-IND_SECTOR.

MOVE 'HERS' TO ls_Header-MATL_TYPE.

*MOVE 'X' TO ls_Header-BASIC_VIEW.

*MOVE 'X' TO ls_Header-SALES_VIEW.

*MOVE 'X' TO ls_Header-ACCOUNT_VIEW.

it will work. Just incase anyone has the same problem.
