How to update a value of a specific batch characteristic using batch input

[former_member681953]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to update a value of a specific batch characteristic in batch input.

The process:

1. Execute 'MILL_CUT_LBA'.
2. Set a number of material document and an item number, and click on enter key.
3. The item is displayed on Receiving items.
4. Click the button on 'Batch classification'.
5. Input a new value of a specific batch characteristic.
6. Return to main page.
7. Save the data.

I recorded these process on SHDB and the step 5 is blow:

- Field name: RCTMS-MWERT(05) *05... Line number

- Field value: 1

The line number would change with some conditions (material etc..), so I'd like to know how to specify a batch characteristic without using line number.

Hello,

you can use "Position" button on classification screen (binocular icon).
By this mean, the characteristic to change will be alway in first position.
But from my point of view, perhaps it's better to use standard function to change classification when batch is created in system...

Good luck with the dynamic batch-input... Is there any reason not to use a BAPI or standard class to solve this?

Thanks for your comment.

The batch input except step 5 has been already completed, and I need to implement this Step 5 as a change request. We thought that this was an easiest way if possible, but it seems a bit difficult... We need to consider BAPI or standard class.

Thank you for your advice!

I suggested your advice to my boss, but he's concerned about the risk to set a different cursor if an item that is same as the searching word or is including the word exists.

As you said, it's better to use standard function.
