Return message capture issue while using API_RE_CN_CHANGE

[Former Member]

Hi Experts

I have an issue in capturing return messages while using API_RE_CN_CHANGE to alter a real estate contract.follows is the problem description -

API_RE_CN_CHANGE is called to change a realestate contract(insert a condition) with key to identify the contract as "Object instance of the contract". In this case, the return message form the API is empty. this is how i use the API function module -

CALL METHOD cf_recn_contract=>find

EXPORTING

id_bukrs = bukrs

id_recnnr = recnnr

id_activity = reca1_activity-change " Change mode

if_auth_check = abap_false

if_enqueue = abap_true " LOck the contract

RECEIVING

ro_instance = lo_contract " getting the contract object instance

EXCEPTIONS

error = 1

OTHERS = 2.

CALL FUNCTION 'API_RE_CN_CHANGE'

EXPORTING

• id_bukrs = g_t_contracts-bukrs " Not using this field

• id_recnnr = g_t_contracts-recnnr " Not using this field

io_object = lo_contract

it_term_sr_sales = lt_term_sr_sl_intc

it_condition = lt_condition_intc

if_test_run = g_testrun_flg

if_msglist_instead_of_exc = 'X'

io_msglist = lo_msglist_t " Error messages list

IMPORTING

EF_STORED = ef_stored

EXCEPTIONS

ERROR = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

• convert messages to bapi return list

CALL METHOD lo_msglist_t->get_list_as_bapiret

IMPORTING

et_list = g_t_return[]. " Read the messages in internal table

Here the method does not give the return message as import parameter. but all these stuff works if i call API_RE_CN_CHANGE using company code(BUKRS) & Contract number(RECNNR).

Can anybody suggest a solution.

Thanks

Hello Mukundhan

While function module API_RE_CN_CHANGE may work this is not the way how I would change a contract condition. Since you are obviously working with RE-FX and dealing with a contract instance (IF_RECN_CONTRACT) I would apply the following logic:

DATA:
  lo_contract              TYPE REF TO if_recn_contract,
  lo_condition_Mngr    TYPE REF TO if_recd_condition_manager,
  lo_condition             TYPE REF TO if_recd_condition.


" Create contract instance
  CALL METHOD cf_recn_contract=>find
    EXPORTING
      ...
    RECEIVING
      ro_instance = lo_contract
   EXCEPTIONS
     others = 1.

" Get condition manager from contract
  lo_condition_mngr = 
        lo_contract->IF_RECD_HAS_CONDITION~GET_CONDITION_MNGR( ).


" Insert a new condition
   CALL METHOD lo_condition_mngr->insert_condition
     EXPORTING
       ...
    RECEIVING
      ro_condition = lo_condition.
