Headertext in BAPI_PR_CHANGE

[Former Member]

Hello!

I have to insert a headertext via BAPI_PR_CHANGE to an existing Purchase Requisition.

I was testing this BAPI while filling the table PRHEADERTEXT and the field NUMBER, but the Purchase Requisition wasn't changed.

Have I to do something more?

Kind regards!

hi Dennis,

do you COMMIT after the FM call?

Hi Eric,

I have set TESTRUN = 'X'.

Is it not enough to test the bapi and understand how it works?

[JozsefSzikszai]

if testrun is set, nothing will be posted, you have to take it out and do a COMMIT WORK statement after the function call (if everything is all right). If your objective is only to see if the data which you give to the BAPI is ok, than you can set testrund and check the return message.

I do a COMMIT WORK after the function call, but nothing happens.

Have I to fill some more fields to change the headertext with this BAPI?

[JozsefSzikszai]

sorry... no idea...

check the return parameter of the BAPI, if it is OK, than you have to debug...

Use function module BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT

after coming calling BAPI.

Was this ever solved? I have encountered the same problem: I have a purchase requisition, I try to add header text with BAPI_PR_CHANGE, the return messages says requisition was updated, but the text was not updated. I do not have "test run" checked!

I have tried debugging but I could not discover what the problem is.

Has anyone here ever successfully updated purchase requisition header text with BAPI_PR_CHANGE?

Thanks,

And you ran BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after each call to the BAPI?

Rob,

I tried this change using Test function of SE37. Other changes I tested in SE37 were applied to the purchase requisition without separately calling BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT . I confess I don't understand how I would (or why I would need to) do that.
