Hi friends,

I have an error while executing the BAPI: BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN.

Hi mahesh,

   try this in place of your save method. Don't pass any value for refnumber and objecttype for SAVE. I have done same thing. It will work.

wa_methods-refnumber = ' '.

   wa_methods-objecttype = ' '.

   wa_methods-method = 'SAVE'.

   wa_methods-objectkey = '%00000000001'.

   append wa_methods to it_methods. clear wa_methods.

Hi Ashish,

I tried that but now also i am getting the below error .

No authorization for authorization group 3000

Mahesh

Hi,

this can mean that you are not authorized to create order with this type, i.e. PM01.

You can ask from your senior to check the authorizations or roles assigned to you.

Thanks Ashish.

I will check and let you know.

Check authorization failure with transaction SU53

Hi Ashish,

I tried with refnumber as null, now i am getting the error as Entry 0 in table HEADER (method CREATE) was not found

Regards,

Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,

  Refnumber is needed for all the other methods. Only for the 'SAVE' its not needed. Can you copy the part where you are declaring the methods.

First give the refnumber for the HEADER CREATE method, and keep it blank for SAVE. This refnumber is a numeric field , so you can directly declare the value as 1 in place of '000001'.

Try that.

Hi Ashish,

I found the problem.

It happened because of improper Authorizations.

Ask your Colleagues to create orders with their ID and if they are able to create compare and assign the missing authorizations to your ID. SU53 will also help you in displaying the missing authorization.
