UOM conversion using 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I am using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to update the UOM for existing materials. But I am getting Error message. Here is the code, pls tell me what am I missing.

LOOP AT it_datatab INTO wa_datatab.

increment count.

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'

EXPORTING

input = wa_datatab-matnr

IMPORTING

output = wa_datatab-matnr

.

READ TABLE it_zifs_uom_map INTO wa_zifs_uom_map WITH KEY zifs_uom = wa_datatab-meinh.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

it_headdata-material = wa_datatab-matnr.

it_headdata-basic_view = 'X'.

• it_clientdata-base_uom = 'EA'.

• it_clientdatax-base_uom = 'X'.

wa_unitsofmeasure-alt_unit = wa_zifs_uom_map-zsap_uom.

wa_unitsofmeasure-denominatr = wa_datatab-umren.

wa_unitsofmeasure-numerator = wa_datatab-umrez.

APPEND wa_unitsofmeasure TO it_unitsofmeasure.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-alt_unit = wa_zifs_uom_map-zsap_uom.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-denominatr = 'X'.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-numerator = 'X'.

APPEND wa_unitsofmeasurex TO it_unitsofmeasurex.

PERFORM update_uom.

ELSE.

APPEND wa_datatab TO it_error.

ENDIF.

can somebody pls help me

Thanks,

Chandni,

A very similar code like yours is working for me,. Please validate if 'BOX' exist in your T006 table (i presume it should exist).

DATA: s_headerdata TYPE bapimathead.

DATA: it_unitsofmeasure TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapi_marm.

DATA: it_unitsofmeasurex TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapi_marmx.

DATA: wa_unitsofmeasure TYPE bapi_marm.

DATA: wa_unitsofmeasurex TYPE bapi_marmx.

DATA: s_return TYPE bapiret2.

s_headerdata-material = 'ZTEST'.

s_headerdata-basic_view = 'X'.

wa_unitsofmeasure-alt_unit = 'BOX'.

wa_unitsofmeasure-denominatr = '1'.

wa_unitsofmeasure-numerator = '6'.

APPEND wa_unitsofmeasure TO it_unitsofmeasure.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-alt_unit = 'BOX'.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-denominatr = 'X'.

wa_unitsofmeasurex-numerator = 'X'.

APPEND wa_unitsofmeasurex TO it_unitsofmeasurex.

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'

EXPORTING

headdata = s_headerdata

IMPORTING

return = s_return

TABLES

unitsofmeasure = it_unitsofmeasure

unitsofmeasurex = it_unitsofmeasurex.

IF sy-subrc = 0.

ENDIF.
