Unable to create a Product using Odata API_PRODUCT_SRV A_Product

[former_member825853]

Hi,

Appreciate your inputs in advance. I am unable to create a product on my fully activated SAP Appliance using API_PRODUCT_SRV A_Product POST. I get the following error:

code":"API_PRD_MSG/009","message":{"lang":"en","value":"Create operation not allowed on entity.

Digging a little deeper, I find this in

 /iwbep/if_mgw_appl_srv_runtime~create_entity

* Create operation not allowed in below entities<br>    IF lv_entity_type_name = cl_api_product_mpc=>gc_a_producttype<br>      OR lv_entity_type_name = cl_api_product_mpc=>gc_a_productmlaccounttype<br>      OR lv_entity_type_name = cl_api_product_mpc=>gc_a_productmlpricestype<br>      OR lv_entity_type_name = cl_api_product_mpc=>gc_a_productvaluationcostingty<br>      OR lv_entity_type_name = cl_api_product_mpc=>gc_a_productvaluationaccountty.

    ENDIF.

Hi,

You can use A_Product entity to create via create_deep_entity redefinition. Please use the navigation property to_Description as you need to provide a description in a specific language:

{
  "Product": "string",
  "ProductType": "stri",
  "BaseUnit": "str",
  "IndustrySector": "s",  
  "to_Description": {
    "results": [
      {
        "Product": "string",
        "Language": "st",
        "ProductDescription": "string"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Hi Anurag,

the question/issue probably isn't specific to CAL or the fully-activated appliance.

Can you please also tag your question with SAP Gateway and oData so that reaches the right forums ?

Thanks,

Joerg
