Hi Sabarinathan,

I assume you are using the Sales Order (A2X) Inbound API to fetch the sales order payload shown in the screenshot. In the API business documentation, you can see the supported entities that are accessibly via API call:

As you can see, only the actual batch number is supported as a field. In case you additionally require the batch characteristic data as well, one option would be to do do a custom development where you receive the sales order payload, extract the value of the <Batch> field, and in the second step, you can call the Batch master record API that will then provide you with the necessary batch characteristic data.

Alternatively, you could also consider creating a custom CDS View (as shown here) where you join the I_SalesOrderItem and I_Batch CDS Views and publish the resulting data set as an external API.

Best regards
