error while calling BAPI_PARTNEREMPLOYEE_CREATE BAPI using JCO

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Our requirement is to create and update customer contact details from java application. For this purpose we are trying to call BAPI_PARTNEREMPLOYEE_CREATE BAPI for create contact and BAPI_PARTNEREMPLOYEE_EDIT for updating contact information. As these BAPIs are of online version, error is coming while calling these BAPIs.

So is there any way to call these BAPIs through JCO or are there any alternative BAPIs available for same purpose?

Thanks in advance,

Arati.

Hi,

All the bapi or function module available in SAP to create contact person will internally do a call transaction to VAP1 and VAP2 tcodes in order to create or change contact person respectively.

We had a similar problem when we were creating and updating customer contact person using inbound idoc. We then created a bdc recording for the same and then created two function module with name Z_CREATE_CONTACT and Z_CHANGE_CONTACT. In your case you can make this function modules as RFC enabled FM and call them using JCO I guess.
