Refresh Global table in BAPI_AGREEMENTS

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using the BAPI 'BAPI_AGREEMENTS' to create multiple Rebate Agreements.

When I call the BAPI for the first time, it works perfectly and created the Rebate Agreement document. But when I call the BAPI for the second time, it results in a dump.

The reason for the dump is that, within this BAPI, the Function Module 'AGR_FILL_DEFAULT' is called. It populates a Global internal table GT_T6B1 from table T6B1, after checking that the internal table GT_T6B1 is initial. Then it assigns values to certain Field-Symbols. These Field-Symbols are used later within this same Function Module.

The first time the BAPI is called, the global internal table GT_T6B1 is indeed initial, and hence the Field-Symbols are assigned. But this global table is not refreshed within the BAPI. Hence, when the BAPI is called the second time, the Field-Symbol assignment does not take place. When the code tries to use the Field-Symbols, it results in a dump as the Field-Symbols have not been assigned.

I am using the BAPI 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT' to commit the transaction after the BAPI is called. This ought to refresh all buffers, but it is not refreshing this internal table at least. I also called the Function 'BUFFER_REFRESH_ALL' explicitly within my program, but that also is not helping.

Any solutions for this problem? Please share your ideas.

Thanks,

Swagata.

I found a workaround and that was sufficient to solve my problem. I created all he Rebate Agreements at once by passing all Rebate Agreements data in the parameter TI_BAPIAGRMNT and called the BAPI a single time. This did not cause dump. Marking this question as closed.
