Hi All ,
i want to use the BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA to update the Z-fields of tables MARA and MARM, but I don't know how to use the tables EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONINX.
If anyone can give me a sample.
thanks

Hi Fabrice ,
This is what the FM documenytation says:
<i><b>Reference Structure for BAPI Parameters EXTENSIONIN/EXTENSIONINX
Description
You use this structure to transfer the material's customer-defined
fields. For information on transferring these fields, see the function
module documentation.
Note
Besides the table fields already defined, customer-defined table fields
can also be supplied with data. Since these fields are created by the
customer, they are known only during the runtime and must therefore be
determined dynamically.
The structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> (<NAME> = MARA, MARC, MARD, MBEW, MLGN,
MLGT, MVKE) and the relevant checkbox structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> (<NAME>
= MARAX, etc.) must first be extended by the customer to include the
fields required. The standard structures contain only the corresponding
key fields. When including new fields in these structures, make sure
that the field has the same name as the field in the database table. In
addition, the fields in the structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> may only be of the
type CHARACTER. The data element BAPIUPDATE must be used for the fields
in the checkbox structure (except for key fields).
The two parameters EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONINX are used to transfer the
data to the method. The field STRUCTURE contains the name of the
structure (for example, BAPI_TE_MARA or BAPI_TE_MARAX) used to identify
the work area (for example, WA_BAPI_TE_MARA or WA_BAPI_TE_MARAX) to
which the data is transferred. The remaining fields for the parameter
EXTENSIONIN or EXTENSIONINX contain the data for the key fields (for
example, the material number) and the data for the customer-defined
fields. The number of characters reserved in the two parameters for the
content of a customer-defined field must be the same as the number of
characters for the corresponding work area field. If the number of
characters required is smaller, the remaining characters in the two
parameters must be filled with blanks. Only then may the content of
another field be transferred. Here too, remember that the data is
written to the database only if the corresponding indicator has been set
in the work area. </b></i>

Hello
Thanks, but I've already read the documentation, but I don't understand what they mean.
Do you have an abap sample ?
Thanks for your answers

see the sample code I had posted long back.
I had posted it on wiki too
