Create SALES ORDER: BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2

[Former Member]

hI !!!

i'm working in the version 4.6 B

When i test the bapi: BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 in transaction SE37 this execute successful but when,

i execute the same bapi with the same parameters in code abap this generate the

message:

E V1 312 Sales document type PS is not defined

I don't know why in test mode don`t generate a message

and when a run this since abap code, generate an error.

Someone know what are happening ?

Hi Noemi,

It is highly unlikely that it would work in SE37, but would not work in an ABAP program. However I suggest a few things:

a) Make sure you have done proper conversion while passing data, for eg. if a particular value you enter in SE37 as 20034, you might have to enter it as 000000200034 in your ABAP program.

b) Please check once again whether all your input data is correct and exactly matches with Test data

If above solution does not work, you might post your code here.

Hi Noemi,

Don't listen to Subramanian V! It is in fact highly likely that a test of a function module in SE37 works and then does not work when called in ABAP. The culprit is almost always the fact that in SE37 SAP automatically converts what you type in into internal format (for example customer number 0000003370, when you type in 3370 - ok listen to Subramanian V on this point).

In your case, when you type in sales document type PS, SAP is converting that to the internal version of this document type. If you check table TVAKT, you can see all the conversions from internal types to external types (by language).

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Brad

You need to pass the internal value of the sales document type .

<u><b>How do i find the internal values?</b></u>

go to the domain of sales document type which is AUART.

you can find a field called conversion routine which will hold 2 FMs. One to convert from external to internal and the other from internal to external (these values reside in table TAUUM - this table is for sales document type conversion). You should use these FMs to convert the value to internal format and pass it to the BAPI.

<u><b>Why it worked in SE37?</b></u>

Here SAP takes care of the conversion automatically.

Subramanian, Brad and Raja.

these i can resolve my problem.

I used the se37 to test bapis, is more easy and fast !!

and you can save data like variant, and you can simulate the real execution without write any code abap,

and re-process the times that you need,

when you know what fields you need you write your abap code faster.

Thanks !!!
