Hi Chandrakala,

You must use BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE func. after the BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE func.

You would get the notifheader_export-notif_no value from BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE func.

Then send this parameter to BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE func.

At last you use BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT func.

Hi Kadir, thanks for your reply.

I got Notif_no from Notifheader_export. But it gives Notification number as "%000000002".

In this case what I should do.

Also are there some BAdI/Exit/Eancement implemtation in your system which could have broken some SAP logic, and, if they only impact BAPI and not transactions, nobody realized.

Hi Chandrakala,

Did you try to give notification number "%000000002" to second function then commit and see the result?

Does it work?

As already written you must also call BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE and then BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT.

Pass result of first call ( notifheader_export- notif_no ) to second, then get the generated number from the second call ( notifheader-notif_no ) as only at this step was the number next FM executed.
