Why is the field value of REF_ITEM not transferred from BAPI parameter BAPIMEPOITEM-REF_ITEM to database table EKPO-REF_ITEM when using BAPI_PO_CHANGE? After executing the following code, the field values set on BAPIMEPOITEM are available in table EKPO except the field REF_ITEM which is empty

Version info: SAP ECC 6.0, SAP_ABA 702, SAP_AP 700(support pack= SAPKNA7017)

I could not find any documentation on this or SAP Note relevant to the version indicated above.
