ABAP Function ROUTING_MAINTAIN component allocation phantom assy

[former_member610913]

Dear community,

Due to an upgrade to SAP EWM, we have to allocate components to the right operation in the routing of a material. This can be done manually in CA02, but since we need to update hunderds of routings, we wanted to use the function routing_maintain.

It is working for a level 0 component, but I cannot get it working for the components of a phantom assy.

The code below for the function/bapi ROUTING_MAINTAIN is working for the level 0 component

'    keyDate = "20190514" 
'    routingGroup = "50018714" '
'    routingGroupCounter = "01" '
'    material = "6425-1301-6601" '
'    plantt = "2010" 
'    maintainMode = "C" 
'    flagBarPointer = "0000000000" 
'    sequenceNo = "000000"
'    activity = "0305"
'    operation = "0305"
'    bomType = "M" 'auto
'    BOMnumber = "00236223" 
'    alternativeBOM = "01" 
'    itemID = "00000006"
'    itemNo = "0060" 
'    quantity = "1"
'    qUnit = "EA" 
'    bomTypeRoot = "M" '
'    bomNumberRoot = "00236223"
'    alternativeBOMRoot = "01"

Set bapi = r3.Add("ROUTING_MAINTAIN")
    bapi.Exports("KEY_DATE") = keyDate
    bapi.Exports("TASK_LIST_GROUP") = routingGroup
    bapi.Exports("GROUP_COUNTER") = routingGroupCounter
    bapi.Exports("MATERIAL") = material
    bapi.Exports("PLANT") = plantt

    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "MAINTAIN_MODE") = maintainMode 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "FLAG_BAR_POINTER") = flagBarPointer 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "SEQUENCE_NO") = sequenceNo 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ACTIVITY") = activity 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "OPERATION_ID") = operation 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "BOM_TYPE") = bomType 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "BOM_NO") = BOMnumber 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ALTERNATIVE_BOM") = alternativeBOM 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ITEM_ID") = itemID 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ITEM_NO") = itemNo 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "COMP_QTY") = quantity 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "COMP_UNIT") = qUnit 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "PLANT") = plantt 'plant
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "MATERIAL") = material 'material
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "BOM_TYPE_ROOT") = bomTypeRoot
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "BOM_NO_ROOT") = bomNumberRoot 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ALTERNATIVE_BOM_ROOT") = alternativeBOMRoot

    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "SEQUENCE_NO_OLD") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ACTIVITY_OLD") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "OPERATION_ID_OLD") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_DIVISOR") = "00000"
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_1") = "0"
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_2") = "0"
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_3") = "0"
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_UNIT") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "CUTTING_MEASURE_UNIT_ISO") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "COMP_UNIT_ISO") = "EA"
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "BACKFLUSH") = ""
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ORDER_LVL") = "00" 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "ORDER_PATH") = "00" 
    MAINTAINCOMPONENT.Value(1, "PATH") = "000000" 

What I changed for the level 1 component was the BOMnumber (BOM_NO), item ID(ITEM_ID), item No(ITEM_NO), ORDER_LVL (to 01), ORDER_PATH (to 01) and PATH (to 000001).

This resulted in the error "No suitable object found" and "The component to be assigned has not been completely specified".

I also tried changing the material to the phantom material number, the item ID to both the number of the row/line in CA02 and to 00000001 as it's the first item in the BOM of the phantom material. However each time I get the same error.

In short:

Can someone help me with what I need to change in my code (which fields) to be able to assign a component on level 1 (so a component of a phantom assy) to an operation in a routing using ROUTING_MAINTAIN?

Thank you in advance!

Tom

Perform some search on OSS there are some notes available

Hint: Start with note 1933543 - CPCC_S_TASK_LIST_MAINTAIN: Error with phantom assemblies ('The same symptom occurs when you use the function module ROUTING_MAINTAIN')

I'll check it out as soon as our SAP service department has implemented the note.

Thank you!

Unfortunately that note and the 2 others found (2153292 CPCC_S_TASK_LIST_MAINTAIN: Error with phantom assemblies (2) and

2299757 CPCC_S_TASK_LIST_MAINTAIN: Error with phantom assemblies (3)) are only valid to version SAPKH61712 or before, while our system is on SAPKH61714.

Did you pass the parameter application in your code, as suggested in first note?

' To allow editing of these kinds of component assignments, you must enter an application (parameter 'APPLICATION') to enable a multi-level explosion of the root BOM.

Hi, did yo do the other change? I met the same problem with you~

I somehow overlooked this, this indeed fixes the problem.

For the sake of future references, I added bapi.Exports("APPLICATION") = "PP01" (where PP01 is the BOM application)

Thanks a lot Raymond!
