Change output medium to a Local PO in SRM e.g MAIL to XML

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I wanted to change the output medium of a Local PO. Currently the Output medium is picked from the Supplier data e.g Mail.

I wanted to change the output medium to say XML.

I have implemented the Badi BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI.

METHOD if_ex_bbp_doc_change_badi~bbp_po_change.

DATA : lv_medium TYPE ppfdmetype,

lv_medium_new TYPE ppfdmetype VALUE 'XML'.

• Check for Vendor customiing and do necessary change.

CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_OUTPUT_PO_PARAMS_GET'

EXPORTING

guid = is_header-guid

IMPORTING

medium_vend = lv_medium.

IF lv_medium <> 'XML'.

CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_OUTPUT_PO_PARAMS_SET'

EXPORTING

iv_guid = is_header-guid

iv_medium_type = lv_medium_new

EXCEPTIONS

no_print_possible = 1

no_mail_possible = 2

no_fax_possible = 3

no_xml_possible = 4

OTHERS = 5.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

" dO NOTHING AS OF NOW..

ENDIF.

ENDIF.

In Debugging When I save or order the PO , I could see that the medium changed to XML . But When I open the PO , i could see that the Output medium is again fetched from Supplier data.

This behaviour is save , even if I change the Output medium from the output medium tab .

Would be great if you could help me solve this issue.

Best regards,

Prabhu
