Creating requiorement using BAPI : BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE

[Former Member]

Hi all ,

I am trying to create requirement in the transaction MD61 using the BAPI BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE . When I execute the program I am getting the following message as <u><b>Requirement already exists, maintain via change transaction first</b></u> .

As of now if I goto MD63 and see there is no requirement with the given date and quantity . But if I goto MD61 and create the requirement it is getting created .

I debugged the BAPi and fiund the error message is being populated at : line 388 of the FM REQUIREMENTS_ITEM_MAINTAIN . however I am not able to diagnisethe issue .

Can anyone help to find out what the message means .

Hey , Can anyone help me with this .

Thanks ,

Hi Varun,

It seems you already have requirement created. If the requirement already exits, system only allows you to change NOT create.

Please check table PBIM with same key fields as you passed to BAPI BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE.

Hi Ferry ,

I can see an entry in PBIM . Does that mean I should use BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CHANGE to change the requirement ?

I went to the transaction MD63 and if I check the schedule lines I can see an entry already existing there . Now I want to create another entry with today's date and different quantity . This is what I am trying to achieve . When I directly do in the transaction I am able to achieve it , But with anyof the FM BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CREATE/BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CHANGE I am not able to do that . Can you please help me to do that .

Thanks ,

Hi,

Please try this.

- Use BAPI BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_GETDETAIL to get the old PIR data.

- Move the return values (table REQUIREMENTS_OUT) to an internal table. Then you loop at the internal table and replace the corresponding dates old data with new data.

- Then use BAPI BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_CHANGE to update the new dates with new data.

Hi Ferry ,

Can you tell me the significance of the table PBID .

When I am trying to read the details using BAPI_REQUIREMENTS_GETDETAIL for one of the material it is not returning any values and the reason is the select on the table PBIM failed . But when I goto MD63 I am able to see all the data on the screen . I am trying to get the schedule data . Can you please help me with this .

Thanks ,
