custom program to create outbound IDoc.

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to create a custom program to create BOMMAT IDoc for any create/change of BOM using CS01,CS02,C201 or C201.

Because standard change pointers for alternative BOM's are not working.

I can able to create BOMMAT idoc using 'MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE if I know the change information .

Should I use change_pointers_read to capture the change info ? if yes please let me know how to use this FM .

Please suggest me the best way .

Thanks,

Vinay.

You can also try to copy it to z i.e. custom and then activate change pointers for this. Add function module to it from BD60

Hi Vinay

• get change pointers

Fm: CHANGE_POINTERS_READ

exporting

change_document_object_class = 'STUE_V'

creation_date_high = <creation Date>

creation_time_high = <creationTime>

message_type = message_type

tables

change_pointers = lv_chng_ptrs

(lv_chng_ptrs like bdcp )

• bom is processed -> create Idoc

FMl: MASTER_IDOC_CREATE_BOMMAT

• mark change pointers as processed

CHANGE_POINTERS_STATUS_WRITE'

commit work.

call function 'DEQUEUE_ALL'.

Above info helps you

Hi Ramesh,

Thanks for useful answer !

Here I can't use MASTER_IDOC_CREATE_BOMMAT because this will not work for my BOM aletrnatives

So I am using fm master_idoc_distribute .

So could you please let me know How to manage the date and time in change_pointers_read for background job ?

Thanks,

Vinay.
