Example for BAPI_FUNCLOC_CHANGE with customer fields

[Former Member]

Hello,

I want to use the function module BAPI_FUNCLOC_CHANGE in order to change a customer field that has already been created on the Table IFLOT. The parameter EXTENSIONIN has been added to the BAPI for that purpose, but unfortunatelly I cannot find the way to use it properly.

Furthermore, I would like to know how can I get the data neccesary for the Importing Parameters.

Could anyone provide me an example of its use?

Thank you in advance,

Have a look at SAP-KBA 2146575 on how to add "Customer fields in BAPIs: Technical object" : link

This KBA provides info on additional Structures that need to be created to allow the correct transfer of data through "EXTENSIONIN"-Tables when executing this (or other related) BAPI ...

PS : As this is a more Technical (ABAP) related topic, you could set the additional Tag to ABAP Development to 'attrackt' more responses ...

Kind regards

I've never done it before...

In SE37, click on the Function Module Documentation button.

Then read the information for EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONOUT.

I have already read the BAPI Documentation, but it does not help me in this issue. For this reason I wrote here my question 😉

Clara,

Do the following:

• Add the functional location name in the FUNCTLOCATION field
• Change the fields in the DATA_GENERAL and DATA_SPECIFIC tabes as required
• For the same fields you changed above, put an "X" in the corresponding DATA_GENERALX and DATA_SPECIFICX tabes
• Run/call BAPI_FUNCLOC_CHANGE
• Run/call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT

Thank you for your answer. I don´t need to change any field of data_general or data_specific, so I leave them INITIAL (as well as data_generalx and data_specificx). What I need to change is a customer field (named ZZKOMP) that we have added to table IFLOT. How can I insert this field into Parameter EXTENSIONIN?
