CO-PA postings

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have an exisgting interface for posting Incoming Invoice. I get the data from Legacy through XI interface. Legacy side i have File adapter and R/3 side ABAP Proxies. This interface uses BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE function call.

But, now my requirement is, i will get some more extra fields related to COPA along with incoming invoice data through the same interface. Where should i implement the logic to post the COPA data. There are no parameters in BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE function module related to COPA fields !!

HI,

Clarify with functional team to gt n exact diff of BAPI and if enhancements are required then use Custom BAPI.

also u can check with BAPi_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST for CO-PA post

[Former Member]

you mean we have to use another BAPI without disturbing the existing one ?

[Former Member]

if you dont have that field in bapi you have to use other BAPI which have all the fields

[prabhu_s2]

yes u need to use another bapi for this case. try with the bapi i'd given u

[Former Member]

Hi Prabhu,

even in the BAPI that u mentioned ( BAPi_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST ) I dont have all the CO-PA related fields i do have some but not all...

In this case is it possible to add some more fields to the COPA structure of the above BAPI ?

[Former Member]

yes you can add by extending that BAPI which is ZBAPI . i would suggest use our current and extended it by adding missing fields and make it zbapi

we can add the fields in a customized BAPI but again if u cannot find it in a std bapi then functionalites for updating those fields values in sap willnot be handeled. u need to check for other bapi or u may need to have on created which adds all ur fields defintion for target

[prabhu_s2]

also u can check with: BAPI_COPAACTUALS_POSTCOSTDATA

Hi,

In any case i have about 10 COPA fields to be posted. So, Is it okay if I add those fields to the existing COPA structure in one of those BAPI ?

Do we ge all the functionality if we copy the std BAPI to ZBAPI as suggested by Sreeram ?

[prabhu_s2]

i hope u cant get this functionality done just by inlcuding those in the cutomized bapi. first u need to check with the bapi if those fields are handeled.. if not then u cannot do this. As per sreeram he had meant on customization of bapi and pls note that all bapi f/n mod starts with bapi* and not with Z prefixed. so u need first check if the fiedls are handeled in the bapi or u may need to write on new bapi to address this fucntionality

Hi Prabhu,

I was looking at BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST but, the problem is that I receive the Header Data for Invoice which can't be used in BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST header. Because, this BAPI meant for posting Accounting Data .

Is there any other BAPI which can take COPA data directly (or along with Invoice data) and post into the application ?

Waiting for reply

[prabhu_s2]

not much sure but need to search for it. goto se37 and give bapi* and search for it. will keep u posted on this.

BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_CHECK Accounting: Check Invoice Receipt

BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_RECEIPT_POST Accounting: Post Invoice Receipt BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_REV_CHECK Accounting: Check Reversal of Invoice

BAPI_ACC_INVOICE_REV_POST Accounting: Post Invoice Receipt Reversal
