Hi ,

Imagine that we have article number X in 50 sales orders.

Now we need to replace the article X with the article Y in all the orders....

As far I see we also will not by able to build something with standard BAPIs for this...

Thanks and regards

Dear L,

I think you should try the input given by our fellow mate Mr Ravi Shankar. in my opinion that should solve your issue.

Note: Requesting you to respect the Contributors inputs, test them in system , still it doesnt address your issue update in forum. So that others will try to provide alternative inputs.

As per forum rules, dont mark thread as answered until unless received input completely address your issue & if it is done- Open a new thread & continue posting

Hello,

thanks for the input...

I closed the tread because I seen that all the standard functionalities are not working in our system-MASS,VA05 and so on which could be used for my issue.

The problem is that we are working with sizetables...

Thanks and best regards

Hi

You can use material determination to automatically substitute one material for another or to propose a list of alternative materials for the user to select among. Further, the substitute material either can replace the original material on the main

order line or can be added as a subitem to the original material in the order. With material determination, not only can you substitute the materials, but you can also check the stock availability for the original or substitute material and control

whether the shortage is to be transferred to the MRP for the original or for the substitute materials

Hi Saif,

thanks for your replay.

The VB11 works as I seen in the moment I create a sales order-->Is there a possibility to carry

out Substituitions for the saved orders when condition record is created??

If yes,this will be useful

Thanks in advance

Hi

I guess, you are looking for a transaction to make changes to sales orders enmasse. If yes, you can try with the Tcode MASS. The object type for sales orders is BUS2032.

Thanks,

Try VB11.

Is very easy to use and has a very easy configuration here IMG > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Material Determination

BR!

Hi Marian

looks really useful.

But I dont understand in which moment the article is changed in sales orders?

Lets say that I create a condition record in VB11-->And what happens then?

Thanks in advance and best regards
