BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST header data

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

I am trying to post customer document by BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST instead of F-02. For the field Bus_Act I fill 'RFBU'. First line contains the customer data and the second line contains account data. I have used this BAPI many times before without any errors but now when i tried for a new program on a new system it asks for the following header table fields:

OBJ_TYPE

OBJ_KEY

OBJ_SYS

Before I did not need to fill these.

Is there smt that I have to check in customizing?

Thanks in advance,

Ali

Hi,

As i know you have to fill these parameters if it is a non po invoice.

Hi Ali,

if you never supplied OBJ_* data, maybe someone else did for you

I know it is almost impossible to do a search on SCN before posting. Otherwise one might find things like [Vendor Invoice Posting using BAPI|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Snippets/VendorInvoicePostingusingBAPI].

Happy coding!

Dear Clemens,

Thanks for your comment(!) I have actually gone through SDN and searched for this topic but no article was related to my question. As the last solution I had to create a post. Please be careful about your remarks and read questions carefully.

Hi all,

I used this BAPI before, without providing any values for OBJ_TYPE, OBJ_KEY, OBJ_SYS and the BAPI still works.

If you look into its source code, you can see that, if we leave those fields blank, system will automatically populate their values:

  IF document_header-obj_type   = 'BKPFF' OR (
     document_header-obj_type  IS INITIAL AND
     document_header-obj_key   IS INITIAL AND
     document_header-obj_sys   IS INITIAL ).

      PERFORM reference_create_prelim
              CHANGING document_header-obj_type
                       document_header-obj_key
                       document_header-obj_sys.

      IF document_header-bus_act IS INITIAL.           "note1264422
        document_header-bus_act = 'RFBU'.              "note1045412
      ENDIF.                                           "note1264422
    CLEAR document_header-ac_doc_no.
  ENDIF.

The routine reference_create_prelim will assign default values

OBJ_TYPE = 'BKPFF'
OBJ_KEY = '$'
call fm OWN_LOGICAL_SYSTEM_GET to get value for OBJ_SYS

This issue seems strange to me as well.

Did you test the BAPI in SE37? Is it ok?

I found the problem. The BAPI has no newer version on the current system I am working with. So the routine to fill in these three parameters do not exist.

Thx.
