Updating Intervals ('<' & '>') in the Material Characteristics value using BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE

[sankar1781]

Hi Experts,

How to update '<' and '>' interval along with the numeric characteristic value for the material?

For ex:

Characteristic | Value

C_Substance | <3.00

Using BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE we able to update or it allows to update only the numeric value of 3.00 and when combines the interval symbol '<', it throws an error as "Cannot be interpreted as a number"

But, the system allows to create the same value manually.

Please reply by providing your valuable inputs.

Thanks.

An interval does not have lower and greater symbols, it has only lower and upper boundary numbers.

e.g. depending on total number of digits, here 10, to simulate < 3:

-99999999.99 to +00000002.99

Basically you must pass correct values in fields

• VALUE_FROM
• VALUE_TO
• VALUE_RELATION

Read first Data Element ATCOD documentation with SE11

• You could also use BAPI_CHARACT_GETDETAIL to get correct values from current database values to use as pattern.
• NB: In your case VALUE_RELATION value to use for <, aka LT, is 6, so you should also pass VALUE_FROM but not VALUE_TO
