DEALLOCATING PLANNED ORDERS USING BDC (CM40)

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

We are trying to deallocate (undispatched) a bunch of planned orders using BDC through transaction CM40.

After getting all the planned orders to be deallocated into an internal table, I then passed it to the BDC "on the screen multiple selections" at the levelling in batch (filter), I have an error saying "Screen 0000 is too large for the batch input".

Is there any other way to pass this data to the BDC or is there a BAPI to deallocate (undispatch) planned orders.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Basil,

did you get a solution for your problem? I have all planed orders in an internal table and want to undispatch only these planed orders via cm40.

I had a similar problem and if you are tyring a BDC with CM40 the BDc exits when you click execute on the capacity levelling screen

thats because CM40 does a submit program to generate  the selection screen for Capacity levelling and a leave statement inside it kicks it out of the selection sccreen

In online process that works fine, but when you call cm40 in a bdc then the leave statement takes it out of the bdc and does not dispatch/deallocate the orders

my solution was to do a sumbit program RCCYMAB1 with selection table

i dont know if this is the same problem that is depicted here, but for anyone in future this might help
