How to get BAPI_EQUI_CREATE working

[Former Member]

I want to use BAPI BAPI_EQUI_CREATE to create equipment. When trying to create an equipment by test-running that BAPI i get no error message, the BAPI returns with a new equipment number and still there is no new equipment with that number. I have the same problem with BAPI_EQUI_CREATE_BY_REFERENCE and there is no big chance to forget any importing parameter with this function module.

Do i have to start those BAPIs in a program and call a certain other BAPI before??

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'

EXPORTING

INPUT = WL_EQUNR

IMPORTING

OUTPUT = WL_EQUNR.

WL_FLAGS-CP_MEASPT = C_CHECK.

WL_FLAGS-CP_MPT_TXT = C_CHECK.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_EQUI_CREATE_BY_REFERENCE'

EXPORTING

REFERENCE_NUMBER = WL_EQUNR

COPY_FLAGS = WL_FLAGS

IMPORTING

EQUIPMENT = WL_EQUI-EQUNR

DATA_GENERAL_EXP = WL_GEN

DATA_SPECIFIC_EXP = WL_SPE

RETURN = WL_RETURN

EXCEPTIONS

OTHERS = 1.

IF WL_RETURN(1) = 'E'.

MESSAGE E899(M3) WITH WL_RETURN-MESSAGE(50)

WL_RETURN-MESSAGE+50(50).

• fp_return = sy-subrc.

ELSE.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'

EXPORTING

WAIT = C_CHECK.

Just try like above

Hello Jens,

<b>BAPI_EQUI_CREATE</b> is waiting for a call to <b>BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT</b>, as any real BAPI should. Otherwise no Update modules triggered in the BAPI will be started.

If you find my answer useful, please don't forget the reward.

Hello Juergen,
