Err.Message sales document type 'OR' not defined

[Former Member]

Hi Friends

I am trying to create an order using standard bapi BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2.

When I manually enter the below given data (minimum required as per documentation), it creates an order.

order_header_in-distr_chan = '12'.

order_header_in-division = '00'.

order_header_in-sales_org = '1000'.

order_header_in-doc_type = 'OR'.

order_partners-partn_role = 'SP'.

order_partners-partn_numb = '0000001000'.

However, when I try to call the same BAPI from an SE38 program with exactly the same data, I get an error message _sales document type 'OR' not defined_

Does anyone konw where I am going wrong.

Your suggestions or feedback will be highly appreciated.

Tks

doc_type s 4 characters.... you are entering only 2 characters

use convertion routins:

CONVERSION_EXIT_AUART_INPUT " for input

CONVERSION_EXIT_AUART_OUTPUT "for output.

[naimesh_patel]

There is a conversion Exit on the DOC_TYPE field.

Try with:

  order_header_in-doc_type = 'TA'.

HI,

Use this FM

DATA : l_doctype type AUART.

Function module              CONVERSION_EXIT_AUART_INPUT
  Import parameters               Value
  INPUT                           'OR'

  Export parameters               Value
  OUTPUT                          l_auart.

order_header_in-doc_type = l_auart.

Thanks a lot for all the responses. I appreciate it. I tried each and every suggestions and here are my responses to those.

J@Y, I tried adding blanks but still got the same error.

Naimesh Patel, I tried 'TA' instead of 'OR' and I got an error that said

enter 'sold-to-party' or 'ship-to-party'

However, I have already entered the partner number which works when I

manually tested this BAPI. Also the same set of data works with

quote creating BAPI. My understanding is that Partner-number

can be used as ship-to or sold-to party.

I also tried calling CONVERSION_EXIT_AUART_INPUT function but again got the same above

error message asking for 'sold-to' or ship-to-party'.

I would also like to add that I have added the transaction commit in my code.

Any other suggestions or feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Tks

HI,

Pass AG instead of SP.

order_partners-partn_role = 'AG'.

or use this Fm CONVERSION_EXIT_PARVW_INPUT

Function module              CONVERSION_EXIT_PARVW_INPUT

  Import parameters               Value
  INPUT                           'SP'

  Export parameters               Value
  OUTPUT                          order_partners-partn_role

Thanks a lot guys, Avinash's suggestion of using AG instead of SP did the trick.

Thanks again to everyone for responding. I appreciate it.
