[Former Member]

Hi All,

    I'm able to create vendor master record using class VMD_EI_API and method MAINTAIN_BAPI but not able to update vendor master record using same  class .

Can anybody please suggest what is the process to update vendor master record using this class VMD_EI_API ?

Hi Alok,

Please look at the code for creation of vendor using class VMD_EI_API

Alok:

Where are you finding the difficulty?

MAINTAIN_BAPI can be used for updating Vendor as well. Just tried it and it works well.

Below are sample codes for updating address of Vendor:

{Code}
DATA:  lt_vendors            TYPE vmds_ei_extern_t,
           ls_vendors            TYPE vmds_ei_extern,
           ls_address            TYPE cvis_ei_address1,
            gs_vmds_extern    TYPE vmds_ei_main.
     ls_vendors-header-object_instance-lifnr = p_lifnr.               "Pass the Vendor Number to be updt
     ls_vendors-header-object_task = 'U'.                                "Represents update
 *   Set the Name
     ls_address-postal-data-name        = 'Test'.                      "Name of the Vendor
     ls_address-postal-data-street      = 'Flat 105, ABS Road'.
     ls_address-postal-data-postl_cod1  = '400062'.
     ls_address-postal-data-region      = '13'.
     ls_address-postal-data-country     = 'IN'.
     ls_address-postal-data-sort1       = gv_name.
     ls_address-postal-data-langu       = sy-langu.
 *   For all the fields where value was provided, set the flag value also to be 'X'
     ls_address-postal-datax-name       = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-street     = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-postl_cod1 = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-region     = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-sort1      = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-country    = 'X'.
     ls_address-postal-datax-langu      = 'X'.
*    Represents that we are updating address of the Vendor
     ls_address-task                    = 'U'.
 *   Set the Address for the Vendor
     ls_vendors-central_data-address = ls_address.
     APPEND ls_vendors TO lt_vendors.
*   Set the Final Vendor Data based on which it has to be updated
*   Note if multiple vendors are to be updated...please maintain multiple entries in LT_VENDORS
    gs_vmds_extern-vendors = lt_vendors[].
*   Initialize all the data
     vmd_ei_api=>initialize( ).
 *   Call the Method for updation of Vendor.
     CALL METHOD vmd_ei_api=>maintain_bapi
       EXPORTING
         is_master_data           = gs_vmds_extern
       IMPORTING
         es_master_data_correct   = gs_vmds_succ
         es_message_correct       = gs_succ_messages
         es_master_data_defective = gs_vmds_error
         es_message_defective     = gs_err_messages.
     IF gs_err_messages-is_error IS INITIAL.
       COMMIT WORK.
     ENDIF.
{code}

Let me know as to what error are you receiving!

Thanks Vineesh!

Now I'm also able to update vendor master data with the help of your code as I was not setting flag value 'X' in datax fields.

Once again thank you very much..

Did you check the link below?

The below set of codes are to be checked....

*   Set Contact Person

    REFRESH: lt_contacts[].

    CLEAR ls_contacts.

    ls_contacts-task = 'I'.                                                         "Represents Creation of Contact person

    ls_contacts-address_type_3-task = 'I'.                               "Represents Creation of Address for CP

*   Specify how many Contact Person numbers are to be obtained

*   This will simply provide us a contact person number

*   NOTE: If the note 1749700 is present in the system, then the contact person number can be left empty

    CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PARTNEREMPLOYEE_GETINTNUM'

      EXPORTING

        quantity  = '1'

      IMPORTING

        contactid = lv_contactid.

    ls_contacts-data_key-parnr = lv_contactid.                          "Contact Person Number

*   Set the Name for Contact person

    ls_contacts-address_type_3-postal-data-fullname   = 'John Doe'.

    ls_contacts-address_type_3-postal-data-firstname  = 'John'.

    ls_contacts-address_type_3-postal-data-lastname  = 'Doe'.

    APPEND ls_contacts TO lt_contacts.

Hi, i check the link also but the issuse is record iare.

1. if im using maintain_bapi for creation of contact person as per ur above code its executing but value is not populating in knvk table or vendor ' screen in xk02 tcode.

2. if im using maintain _bapi for editing contact person ie. first im using bdc to create contact person of vendor with mandatory field (name, last name, department& p.function)

second adding communication details such as telephone fax or email(by using address_type3 structure) its showing error:'Address Number or Address handle missing'. But the thing is im passing adrnr in address->postal(structure ) of vendor.

so kindly suggest wer is the error?
