Hi !

Try the GM-Code 06 ... It's assigned to the MB11 and should work.

1.first try to place manual entry then check thru BAPI.

2.Check the Gm_code which are taking

1. GM_Code 01: Goods receipt for purchase order
2. GM_Code 02: Goods receipt for production order
3. GM_Code 03: Goods issue
4. GM_Code 04: Transfer posting
5. GM_Code 05: Other goods receipts
6. GM_Code 06: Reversal of goods movements
7. GM_Code 07: Subsequent adjustment to a subcontract order

Hi !

The code 06 is the right one - im pretty sure...

MB1B and MB11 are functually similar but the MB11 can handle ALL movement-types >= 201.

541 does usually not have a reference to purchase orders.

So in standard the fields may be not allowd.

So you can do two things:

Check the 541 in dialog MB11.

If the fields are missing there you should go to the customizng of the movement-typs and "open" the field for purchase-order there.

Then try MB11 again...

If it's working there then the BAPI will work to...

Hi !

Can you descirbe the steps and fields you're filling in the MB11 ?!?

Besides that... I've just had a closer look to your error-message...

Are you shure that GRs are allowed in your purchase order ?!?

If the error-message is correct - the purchase order does not allow GRs...

Ha,

1. Movement type = 541

2. To purchase order : order number & item number

3. I saved it asked for storage location

4. I gave storage location & saved it.

5. Document is created.

The above are the steps i used 'MB11'.

I am not able to understand why the same thing is not working with BAPI.

Hai,

It is allowed for the purchase order i am using because I used the same purchase order while creating manually.

It created successfully.

Hi !

I think I got your problem now...

The button "To purchse order" is only a selection "help" that makes the selection of the items of the PO easier.

That won't work in the BAPI.

You'll have to select the items per program from the EKKO-EKPO tables and fill the material-data of the items you'd like to post in the bapi into the "ITEMS" tables of the BAPI.

Besides move-type 101 ther's no selection-feature by giving it a PO number...

Hope that helps you now...
