BAPI to update batch characteristics

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement to update batch characteristics in SAP. I used the VB_BATCH_CHANGE to update the batch characteristics. Below is my code. After the call, I don't get any error from this BAPI/RFC, but batch chararacteristcis values are not updated. Any ideas?

FUNCTION Z_VB_CHANGE_BATCH.

Hi,

Did you try BAPI_BATCH_CREATE? Check the documentation for more help.

Use BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT after this func.module call.

Hi Subramani,

Thanks for your response.

BAPI_BATCH_CREATE will not work for us, because we are trying to update batch, not creating new batch.

Also, The function TRANSACTION_END, I am calling in the code is responsible for committing the transaction.

Thanks,

Hello Sara,

Check the logic for populating the FM input parameters in the include "MQEVAF40".

may be you are not populating the Values properly.

Greetson,

Can you please give more details what to check on the include program? That means, do you see any errors in my code?

Hello Sara,

I don't see any error on your code. What I mean to say is you may not properly sending all the input parameters to the FM call. Check the return code after your FM call and then see the Expections parameter if the return SY-SUBRC code is not equal to 0.

If the SY-SUBRC is 0 and you are passing all the parameters propery then check for OSS.

Thanks,

Hi Greetson,

Thanks once again for your response. I checked all of the things you mentioned, everything looks fine. Now I have the doubt that the original FM VB_CHNAGE_BATCH updates the batch characteristics values.

Thanks,

Sara
