Problems with Transfer posting in BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE

[ronald_cadena]

Greetings Experts,

I was asked to check a client program that help transferring goods using the BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE, but for some reason is failing, even though this is a copy of another program that works perfectly using the same BAPI but in that case for “Goods issue”, I was wondering if maybe we are filling the data incorrectly or we could be missing some key data, this is the current logic the program is executing:

      REFRESH: lti_goodsmvt_item.

          return           = lti_return.

If we execute it in a test run, it works perfectly, the return table is empty and it seems like it was a success, but if we do a real run, then we get the following error message “VL581 - Assign a goods receiving point to the inbound delivery”, I’m not entirely sure what to do with said error, maybe we are missing some key data in the BAPI or the system is lacking some sort of configuration, but the user tell us he can manually create this transfer in the transaction MIGO without issues.

I manage to track said error in this INCLUDE “FV50XF0B_INB_DELIV_REC_POINT_C” for program “SAPMV50A”, it seems like is related to the table LIKP, but not sure why is it assigning that data in this case.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Additional information:

The example that we are checking is using the movement type “301”, maybe that could be affecting the BAPI behavior

Include Receiving Plant in the code i,e MOVE_PLANT

[ronald_cadena]

Thanks Aishwarya, but the field you mention is currently getting filled in the code, according to the user the information we are using there is the correct one

[p244500]

Hi,

I think system try to assine good receiving point. Before assign the goods receiving point, you must define the plant and storage location. You will find information on this in the structure maintenance of the enterprise structure, where plants and storage locations in the general logistics and materials management areas are defined.

Did you try to google the error with "SAP ERROR VL581"?

You can see it should be raised if you have WM active on the warehouse where you are receiving the goods.

WM, in this case, needs a Receiving point to allocate the materials.

Thanks for you comment Simone, the thing is I’m mostly a programmer and I’m kind of new to this module, so I’m not familiar with warehouse configuration, I did search for the error as you mention, but I can’t find were said “receiving point” can be configure, is that a specific part of the warehouse? Maybe the one we are using is currently lacking that data

[SimoneMilesi]

Hi ronald.cadena,

Ask your MM referent if the warehouses are under WM or check in customizing like explained here: if so, you cannot move materials with the BAPI, but you have to create a Transfer Order between them (FMs L_TO_*) and confirm them if autoconfirm is not active.
