Delete longtext with BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

[Former Member]

Hi,

can anybody explain me, how to fill the fuba BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA, if I wan to delete the existing longtext.

Is MATERIALLONGTEXT-DEL_FLAG the right way?

I tried it with

MATERIALLONGTEXT-APPLOBJECT = MATERIAL

MATERIALLONGTEXT-TEXT_NAME = 96312103

MATERIALLONGTEXT-TEXT_ID = GRUN

MATERIALLONGTEXT-LANGU = DE

MATERIALLONGTEXT-FORMAT_COL = /

MATERIALLONGTEXT-TEXT_LINE

MATERIALLONGTEXT-DEL_FLAG = 'X'

If I insert a text inside MATERIALLONGTEXT-TEXT_LINE without the del_flag the system works correct and change the datas.

hii

yes for deleting long text it is needed to set MATERIALLONGTEXT-DEL_FLAG = 'X'.

MATERIALLONGTEXT-TEXT_NAME = 96312103

Text name = 'Material number with 18chars'

check that once.

If you still having the problem Post your code once.

FORM text_aendern.

data: ltext LIKE bapi_mltx OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,

lhead like BAPIMATHEAD,

dreturn like BAPIRET2.

clear ltext[].

loop at xtxt.

move: xtxt-tdformat to ltext-FORMAT_COL, "xtxt-tdformat = /

xtxt-tdline to ltext-TEXT_LINE. "xtxt-tdline = INITIAL

ltext-APPLOBJECT = pa_objec. "Pa_objec = MATERIAL

ltext-TEXT_ID = pa_id. "pa_id = GRUN

ltext-LANGU = xeing-spras. "ltext-langu = DE

ltext-del_flag = 'X'.

append ltext.

endloop.

lhead-material = dmatnr. "dmatnr = 96312103

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'
