Populating BAPI change structures

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

In BAPI import paramters we have change structures. E.g. in BAPI_FIXEDASSET_CREATE we have import parameter GENERALDATAX as change structure for the import parameter GENERALDATA.

Is there a functional module or something which can automatically populate the change structure? e.g. a function module to populate GENERALDATAX based on data in GENERALDATA.

Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Create this subroutine in your program:

*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
*&      Form  set_x_flags
*&---------------------------------------------------------------------*
FORM set_x_flags    USING is_data  TYPE any
                 CHANGING cs_datax TYPE any.

  FIELD-SYMBOLS: <l_field>  TYPE ANY,
                 <l_fieldx> TYPE ANY.

  DO.
    ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE is_data TO <l_field>.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE cs_datax TO <l_fieldx>.
    IF sy-subrc NE 0.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    IF <l_field> IS NOT INITIAL.
      <l_fieldx> = 'X'.
    ENDIF.
  ENDDO.
ENDFORM.                    "set_x_flags

And you can use it this way:

  DATA: ls_generaldata  TYPE bapi1022_feglg001,
        ls_generaldatax TYPE bapi1022_feglg001x,
        ls_inventory    TYPE bapi1022_feglg011,
        ls_inventoryx   TYPE bapi1022_feglg011x.

* Populate LS_GENERAL_DATA and LS_INvENTORY manually

*... then populate flags
  PERFORM set_x_flags: USING ls_generaldata  CHANGING ls_generaldatax,
                       USING ls_inventory    CHANGING ls_inventoryx.

The answer, as far as I know is: No, there's nothing that can automatically populate the "X"s in your badi X structure.

You'll have to use custom code as suggested above.
