Change the contract

[former_member202077]

Hello

I need to create a new item/s to an existing contract (online its VA42 tx), so i am trying to use the 'BAPI_CONTRACT_CHANGE' and 'BAPI_CUSTOMERCONTRACT_CHANGE' BAPIs, but i stucked at

1) For Item: which is the correct field and structure for passing Billing Start Date and Billing End Date

2) in this perspective i tried tables param 'CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_ST_DAT' and 'CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_EN_DAT' is it correct? then am gettign an error saying 'Pls. pass the date rule'? what is this? i guess its/system is not asking to pass user date format (MM/DD/YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY), its some thing else

3) For Item: which is the correct field and structure for passing a new condition (in VA42, we normally enter by just gng to conditions tab and we add a new condition)?

Thank you

Hii,

Just try by passing date in below FM

CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_INTERNAL'

     EXPORTING

       date_external                  = CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_ST_DAT

*       ACCEPT_INITIAL_DATE            =

    IMPORTING

      date_internal                  =  CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_ST_DAT .

Regards,

No, its(formatting the date) not the cause. Pls. experts shed some light,

1) For Item: which is the correct field and structure for passing a new condition (in VA42, we normally enter by just gng to conditions tab and we add a new condition)? seems we can create a new item and adding a new condition in ONE SHOT by calling only once! am i correct?

12 For Item: which is the correct field and structure for passing Billing Start Date and Billing End Date

3) in this perspective i tried tables param 'CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_ST_DAT' and 'CONTRACT_DATA_IN - CON_EN_DAT' is it correct? then am gettign an error saying 'Pls. pass the date rule'? what is this? i guess its/system is not asking to pass user date format (MM/DD/YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY), its some thing else
