VL02N exit to update VEPO at packing time

Hi All,

We are running IS-RETAIL on NW 7.0.1. I have a requirement to update VEPO-SPE_IDPLATE (country of origin) during packing in VL02N. I've been unable to find a Badi or User exit that can influence VEPO/VERPO, either before the screen loads (to default the value) or at save.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Bryan

So, having not found any official way to influence the contents of VEPO at packing time, I'm looking at doing an implicit enhancement on FM HU_PACKING_UPDATE at the start of the FM.

This enhancement will check the global variable gt_xvepo and if the item has been marked for update or insert, populate the country of origin.

Thoughts on this solution? It seems safe enough to me (so long as I only update records that are going to be updated by the FM anyway) but I thought I'd throw it out there.

Thanks

Bryan
