BAPI / IDOC for incoming CS Order

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

I am looking for a SAP standard function module that will create/change a CS/SM/PM order (not internal order). I had a look at message type IORDER, but it there's no function module for inbound processing. (release 4.6C)

I need to create CS orders out of a XML message using XI.

(XI recieves an external XML document and creates CS orders in SAP )

The easiest way I could think of was to use an existing SAP IDOC / RFC to create the CS order in SAP.

Thanks for suggestions, regards, Kathrin!

Kathrin,

probably before the release 4.7 do not exsists BAPI or IDoc to manage CS order document.

I'm in 4.6B and manage it with batch-input.

Hello,

in Rel.45 and 4.6x i searched this without any success.

One workaround i used in 4.5 for CS-orders was creating an sales order and using 'service products' ( the CS-order is then created in the SD-module). But it's a very restricted solution.

In Rel.47 look for BAPI's beginning with 'BAPI_ALM' .

they looked good, but i never really worked with them.
