BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY vs BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE

Hi guys - need some help
I need to update MATNR on a specific equipment
Tested with BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY which is an obsolete bapi but it works fine
where i pass to EQUIMASTER-MATNR new value
and to EQUIMASTER_X-MATNR update flag 'X'
and finish it off with BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
and matnr gets updated on that equipment without any porblem
When I am using BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE which I am supposed to be using
I am not getting anywhere, what I do is simillar to BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY:
I populate DATA_SPECIFIC-MATNR with new matnr
and DATA_SPECIFICX-MATNR with update flag 'X'
(also send empty structure for DATA_GENERAL and DATA_GENERALX
and finish it off with BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
I dont get anything back in return structure and equipment does not get updated
Am I missing something? Do I need to populate any other fields?
//Thanks

Thank you again guys.
I found the problem and it is the function module
ITOB_FILTER_DATA -> that seems to filter MATERIAL and serial-number out
SAP has an enhancement for this reason which is called ITOB_SFWS_SC_ITOB_FILTER_DATA
which help to keep serial and matnr - very confusing but that is how it works.
Two other important fields that must be populated prior using this BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE
MaintPlant (ITOB-SWERK) and Company code (ITOB-BUKRS) or no change will take place
Well - happy coding

BAPI to change maintenance plant on Equipment

Hi everyone,
Is there a BAPI which changes the maintenance plant on the equipment. I tried both
BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY and
BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE unsuccessfully.
If any of you have an idea of any BAPI which does the same or if the plant can be changed with the above BAPI's please help.
Thanks
Aneesh

Hi Aneesh,
When using BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY are you populating with BAPI_ILOA-MAINTPLANT = "Your value" as well as BAPI_ILOA_X-MAINTPLANT = 'X'
Don't forget to call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT if you have no errors in your return table as well.
Kind Regards,
Richard.

Bapi BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE

I have a requirment to update the matnr and sernr for a particular EQUNR, I went through the BAPI BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE, however in the structure DATA_GENERAL i was not able to find MATNR and SERNR.
Has anyone done this before , which BAPI to use and what are the parameters needs to be passed.

Hi,
I used the solution I suggested here. BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY.
I m recieving the message that
'Equiment 'XXX' does not exist',
whereas I can see that in the EQUI table, and where the update is not yet done as per the to be changed material is inputted.
Kindly reply my qurery.

Use of FM BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE to update equipement with customer fields

Hello all
I have extended the EQUI table with customer fields using customer include structure and append structure.
I want to populate these customer fields with BAPI BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE Or BAPI_EQUI_CREATE.
So I have extended the structure ITOB appending the same customer fields as in table EQUI.
I have enhanced the function MAPXI_BAPI_ITOB_TO_ITOB which map data from structure BAPI_ITOB to internal structure ITOB.
But the fields are not populated ?
Has someone already the BAPI in that way ?
Thanks
Jerome

Usage of BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE

Hi,
i use BAPI: 'BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE' to change some fields of an equipment.
Now i have to change the garantie fields of the eqipment.
This fields are store in BGMKOBJ-GWLDT and BGMKOBJ-GWLEN.
I cannot find this field in the Parameter of the BAPI.
Is there another Bapi/FM to change this Fields?
Thanks.
regards, Dieter

Hi,
A way to solve this may be use the ENHANCEMENT-POINT in BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE:
ENHANCEMENT-POINT EHP_BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE_01 SPOTS ES_SAPLITOB_BAPI_EQ
Here you can adjust the value of L_ITOB_REC-GWLEN and L_ITOB_REC-GWLDT .

BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE and append structure CI_EQUI

Hi all,
we have an external system (non-SAP) calling BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE.
The BAPI interface does not cater for the transfer of the customer-defined fields in CI_EQUI. Has anyone come across this before?
Thanks,

BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE

hi all,
I have a material XYZ with a serial number of 123. The equipment number is 100. I wanna change this material number to ABC, serial numner to 456. I am using BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE.
How do i change these values so as to reflect it in the table EQUI?
thanks
regards
nayan

Hi Nayan,
while calling function module fill,
lv_equino = '100'.
wa_general-material = 'ABC'.
wa_genaral-serialno = 456.
wa_generalX-material = 'X'.
wa_genaralX-serialno = 'X'.
EQUIPMENT = lv_equino
DATA_GENERAL = wa_datageneral
DATA_GENERALX = wa_datageneralx
DATA_SPECIFIC = wa_dataspecific
DATA_SPECIFICX = wa_dataspecificx
after returning from the function call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
Award points if this is helpful.

DELETE work center (ARBPL) with BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE (Equipment)

Hi guys.
Im trying to modify the field arbpl in a equipment with BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE. The problem is thhis field doesn´t exist in this BAPI so I can change it...
Does anybody know where or how I could change this field?
Thanks a lot.
Regards

Hi,
You need to use the field DATA_GENERAL-WORK_CTR (main work center). However this uses the internal number. To get this internal number read the CRHD record by ARBPL value, field OBJID is then the internal value.

BADI or FM to Update records on ITOB

Is there a BADI or function module or class->method that allows me to update records on ITOB ? (and how to use it step by step).

Edited by: Tree Sap on Jul 21, 2011 5:10 PM

Hello Tree Sap,
You can use the following BAPI's:-
BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY
BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE
I had used these BAPI's before.

Bapi Create by reference

Hi all
I am using the bapi BAPI_EQUI_CREATE_BY_REFERENCE to create new equipments by reference. The Equipments so created will not have any material number & serial number, these blank fields can be populated with suitable material & serial numbers using bapi BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY. But the bapi BAPI_EQMT_MODIFY is obsolete & SAP prohibits us from using it. The BAPI BAPI_EQUI_CHANGE too does not seem to be serving the purpose. If any of you have dealt with a similar requirement kindly help.
Also None of the BAPIS or released function modules change the PARTNER details in the Partners sub-screen of the Location view of IE01. Kindly help.
Also i can use only released function modules!!

Sudhir
