Reg BAPI BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN

[Former Member]

Hi ,

We have upgraded from ECC 5.0 to ECC 6.0 and during our testing we encoutered an error to this BAPI BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN, saying that the order type is not defined for maintenance order(Msg class I0, msg No 505).We are trying to change production orders through this BAPI. we tried the same program in the old version(ECC 5.0) but there is no error. have you encountered this same scenario and how did you fixed it?

Thanks in advance ,

Hi,

This error is by SP 15 for SAP_APPL 6.00. Temporarily, you can put in commentary the line 109 u201Cmtype = 'E'u201C in the function u201DIBAPI_H_EXEC_BU2_INTERNu201D while SAP fix it.

u201C* start of note 1275923

• read t350

CALL FUNCTION 'T350_READ'

EXPORTING

auart = es_caufvd-auart

language = sy-langu

• mtype = 'E' u201C<- Temporary fix

IMPORTING

Has SAP came back with a fix for this issue -

[reinhard_gruber]

BAPI BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN is named 'Process Maintenance-/Service Order', its doumentation states 'This Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) is used to change maintenance or service orders and their subobjects'. It clearly was never meant to be used for production orders. It only supports order category 30. The system bahavour described is definitely not an error. A program 'correction' by SAP is not intended.

Read Note 1694267 - BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN not for work orders

(Summary : Try BAPI_PRODORD_CHANGE production or BAPI_PROCORD_CHANGE process, or raise an OSS message to request SAP Note 1636321.)

Hi Raymond,

BAPI_PROCORD_CHANGE can be used to change the data at Header Level of Process Orders. My Requirement is to change the Quantities of Materials present in the Material section of COR2. it would be great if you can provide me the BAPI for this purpose. I believe BDC is not a recommended approach for this.

Thanks in advance,

As long as the OSS note is not updated/obsolete due to a, new one, there is few hope that such a BAPI exists in the delivered standard, If i knew one be sure I would have provided it...

So BDC may be today only standard available solution (Excluding play with not-released FM) - or - (as written, in the Note) create an OSS message to be allowed to implement the restricted (internally released only) https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1636321
