Problem in BAPI /INCMD/BAPI_GROUP_SAVE ?

[Former Member]

Dear Experts ,

when i am trying to execute  BAPI : /INCMD/BAPI_GROUP_SAVE it will create the substitution master data in the APO system ,

But when i am trying to change the existing interchangeability groups or delete the groups .

BAPI is returns  an error .  " Interchangeability Group  cannot be changed."

Can any one suggests me how to overcome this.

Hi Sudheer,

Please, check in transaction /INCMD/UI what is the Allowed Method for Change of the Interchangeability Group.

If it says "User Interface", it can only be changed through the UI and the error message in BAPI is expected.

In this case, if you need to modify the setting to allow it to be changed via BAPI,you may create an OSS incident and we (SAP) will check whether it's possible in your scenario or not.

Hi Tiago,

Thanks a lot for your response.

Kindly correct me if i am wrong .

In the t-code /N/INCMD/UI ,

Change allowed : using user interface .

my requirement is to change the header details / item details / subset details (via program )and

                           to add new subsets / items details via program - selection screen select options values under a single interchangeability group as shown in the figures.

i found another BAPI :: /INCMD/GROUP_MAINT .

Is the above requirement can be achieved through this BAPI .

Thanks in avance.

Regards,

Sudheer.

Hi Sudheer,

You're right, that's the setting I meant.

Given that Change Allowed has value "Using User Interface", the interchangeability group cannot be modified through BAPI or CIF.

If you want to use a BAPI, please, create an incident and SAP will evaluate whether it's possible to change the setting for you.

Tiago
