characteristic value update

[Former Member]

hi masters,

i am using fm : BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE to update the characteirsctic values

ex : if their are 14 characterisic values where by i need to update just 3 of them so am using an internal table and and passing those 3 values to update.

yes it does update but it clears the rest of the values.

what could be the problem?

can i have some info pls?

thank you,

pasala.

Hi,

You can use BAPI_CHARACT_CHANGE to change the particular characterstic value rather than using BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE.

Hi Pasala,

I also faced the same issue with BAPI then I used following approach to solve it.

First read the existing characteristics with BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL and then modify the internal table of this BAPI with

the values to be updated and characteristics and then pass it to BAPI_OBJCL_CHANGE.
