BAPI bapi_vendor_create

Former Member

Hi,

I was under impression that BAPIs are screen independent.

But I guess there exists BAPIs which can call the screens online. e.g. BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE allows u to call transaction XK01 and thus create vendors.

The question here I have is, should I call this BAPI from outside like using JCo. What will be effects of calling such BAPI from outside ?

Regards,

Nitin

Hello Nitin,

you are right.This BAPI opens only the vendor dialog for xk01.You need an SAPGUI for using it.

I tried to use it via RFC from a NON-Sapgui Client and i get an "ABORT_MESSAGE_STATE".

I don't know,why the SAP make such a crazy BAPI

Hi!

Does it mean that I have to use this function only inside the SAP? Or can I call it from web if I have got SAPGUI on my computer - or on the web server?

I really don't understand this function!

Thank you!
