creating new material

[Former Member]

Hi everybody

im trying to create a new material using BAPI through C#.

im using BAPI_MATERIAL_GETINTNUMBER then BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to create the new material and everything working but when i try to create a new purchase order for the new material i got a message saying the material is not activated or does not exist. i can find the new material in the MARA table.

Any advise will be helpfull.

Hi

i'm using BAPIs, so i need to do everything with BAPI only.

Thanks

basiclaly your material is not released for purchasing yet. so you need to change your BAPI or use another one to do that. Work with the MM functionsal person to see what info is missing from the material you are creating, and then see how you can populate that in the BAPI

you can use the same bapi-BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA , as 2nd time, meaning, initially, create the matnr and then again change its status by using the same bapi.
