Problem with BAPI_BUS2054_SET_STATUS

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am using the bapi BAPI_BUS2054_SET_STATUS to change the statuses of WBS elements and projects on a mass scale.

The BAPI works fine for Projects but when I am trying to change the status of wbs element (which has some lower level wbs elements) from 'Released' to 'Technically completed' , then the status is changed for all wbs elements including the lower level.

I dont want this to be happen. I want to change only the status of parent WBSE.

Is there a way I can do this. Points will be rewarded for your help.

Thanks.

Hello Chandrasekaran,

We can not control this using this BAPI.

Hi Greetson,

Thanks for your reply.

I guess its something to do with Settlement rule. Please correct me if I am wrong.

The issue is when I am passing a WBS which happened to have some lower level elements the status is changed for all but the parent wbs element is alone getting displayed in my report. I want ti display all the wbs elements for which the status had been changed.

I used the bapi BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO to get the hierarchy details of a wbs element thinking that I can populate the lower level ones and append it to my internal table. But we can't pass multiple wbs elements OR can't call the bapi inside a LOOP statement. So can't use this for multiple WBSE status change.

Is there a way out ? Again thanks for your help.
