BAPI Function or RFC
How can I find a BAPI FUNCTION?
I have to trying to search in the BAPI EXPLORER, but is that right?
Can someone help me in this problem?
Hi again.
A BAPI is a function module. In SE37 you can list all the function modules in the system.
In se80, you can list various types of objects in the system, like programs and function groups, etc ...
You can find, in SE80, programs that contain BAPI (also BAPI testing programs like report BAPI_CHARACT_CREATE_TEST, which is a report that uses a BAPI).
Hope I was clear.
Best regards.
Valter Oliveira.

Bapi Function call from Crystal reports 2008. import parameters syntax.
Dear,
I have an issue with calling a function directly from Crystal reports (2008) in the R3 system.
(if this belongs in another thread , please add the link if moved !)
I try to get data through function "BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS".
Till now all possible input parameters have no data-result.
I already read other threads stating that 'for example' the Language key needs to be provided in a single character. 'E' in stead of 'EN'.
I also already created a Z-wrap-function that fills out all input parameters 'hardcoded'. This works.
clearly there are som syntax changes in passing the values to R3 when called from Crystal Reports.
Can someone state which syntax has to be followed for numeric fields, for datefields etc. (so when i make these dynamical, I know which syntax should be the outcome of the formula)
in my function that doesn't work I use these selections:
(this function is called in a standard report only calling this function)
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_ISO} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_LANGU_INT} = "E" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS_1.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05)
I already tried other languages or the 'EN' as input.
(I would like to know how the date is passed exaclty to R3.)
The function is of course RFC enabled.
when I call the my Z-function with predefined inputparameters in R3 it does give the wanted result.
FUNCTION ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.
""Local Interface:
*" TABLES
*" OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION STRUCTURE BAPI_OBJECT_VALUES
*" CLASS_OBJECTS STRUCTURE BAPI_CLASS_OBJECTS
data ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION type TABLE OF BAPI_OBJECT_VALUES.
data ZCLASS_OBJECTS type TABLE OF BAPI_CLASS_OBJECTS WITH HEADER LINE.
ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_KEY = '000000000000000085'.
ZCLASS_OBJECTS-OBJECT_TYPE = 'MARA'.
Append ZCLASS_OBJECTS.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATIONS'
EXPORTING
CLASSTYPE = '001'
CLASSNUM = 'DSWTEST'
* KEY_DATE = SY-DATUM
* LANGU_ISO =
* LANGU_INT =
* CHARACTS_OF_CLASS_ONLY =
* IMPORTING
* RETURN =
TABLES
OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION = ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION
CLASS_OBJECTS = ZCLASS_OBJECTS
OBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[] = ZOBJECT_CLASSIFICATION[].
ENDFUNCTION.
please advise.
once again if this should be moved to another forum , add the link please!Dear,
I just debugged my Z-function, after adding all input parameters as in the standard BAPI function.
All parameters seems to be passed correctly except from the table parameters from
CLASS_OBJECTS
So all I_parameters are passed :
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_INT} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_LANGU_ISO} = "EN" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_KEY_DATE} = Date (2011, 08, 05) and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSNUM} = "DSWTEST" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CLASSTYPE} = "001" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.I_CHARACTS_OF_CLASS_ONLY.BAPIFLAG} = ""
but the table parameters aren't coming through:
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_TYPE} = "MARA" and
{ZBAPI_CLASS_GET_CLASSIFICATION.T_CLASS_OBJECTS.OBJECT_KEY} = "000000000000000085" and
these are 'blanco' in the function.
also after the function is executed and all data is retrieved, when passing the data back to Crystal reports, once again, the table result isn't passed to Crystal Reports.
please advise -
What is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function
hi,
what is the difference between the normal function module and bapi function module.Hi
BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
A BAPI is remotely enabled function module ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access. Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.

Hi,
I am trying to make BAPI function call in JAVA. I am using the following libraries for IBM AIX version and the sapjco.jar
1) librfccm.o
2) libsapjcorfc.so
The above 2 libraries are in my java lib path.
But I get a exception and it is referring to sapjcorfc.dll (which is a windows version) instead of referring to libsapjcorfc.so
What should I do so that it refers to libsapjcorfc.so and not sapjcorfc.dll

Hi friends,
I am new in BAPI IDOC ALE
I want to learn these Topics but i dont have any clue or material about this.
Kindly help me to learn this topics, please give me material and basic clue for this,
Many Thanks
Jahnavee TrivediHi,
ALE AND IDOC:
Data Creation in Idoc
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.
How to create idoc?
*WE30 - you can create a IDOC type
For more information in details on the same along with the examples can be viewed on:

http://www.allsaplinks.com/idoc_search.html
http://www.sapgenie.com/sapedi/idoc_abap.htm
http://www.erpgenie.com/sapedi/idoc_abap.htm
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30 )
Create Message Type ( WE81 )
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82 )
Creating a Segment
Go to transaction code WE31
Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon
Type the short text
Enter the variable names and data elements
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set Release
Follow steps to create more number of segments
Create IDOC Type
Go to transaction code WE30
Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set release
Create Message Type
Go to transaction code WE81
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter
Click New Entries to create new Message Type
Fill details
Save it and go back
Assign Message Type to IDoc Type
Go to transaction code WE82
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter.
Click New Entries to create new Message Type.
Fill details
Save it and go back
Check these out..

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.

SAP ALE & IDOC<<<<
Steps to configuration(Basis) >>
1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client
2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers
3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)
4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)
5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)
6. Generate partner profiles for sending system
The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)
Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);
Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;
Generate outbound partner profiles;
Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and
Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.
Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>
1. Define IDoc Segment (WE31)
2. Convert Segments into an IDoc type (WE30)
3. Create a Message Type (WE81)
4. Create valid Combination of Message & IDoc type(WE82)
5. Define Processing Code(WE41 for OUT / WE42 for IN)
6. Define Partner Profile(WE20)
Important Transaction Codes:
SALE - IMG ALE Configuration root
WE20 - Manually maintain partner profiles
BD64 - Maintain customer distribution model
BD71 - Distribute customer distribution model
SM59 - Create RFC Destinations
BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
BD82 - Generate Partner Profiles
BD61 - Activate Change Pointers - Globally
BD50 - Activate Change Pointer for Msg Type
BD52 - Activate change pointer per change.doc object
BD59 - Allocation object type -> IDOC type
BD56 - Maintain IDOC Segment Filters
BD53 - Reduction of Message Types
BD21 - Select Change Pointer
BD87 - Status Monitor for ALE Messages
BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
BD62 - Define rules
BD79 - Maintain rules
BD55 - Defining settings for IDoc conversion
WEDI - ALE IDoc Administration
WE21 - Ports in Idoc processing
WE60 - IDoc documentation
SARA - IDoc archiving (Object type IDOC)
WE47 - IDoc status maintenance
WE07 - IDoc statistics
BALE - ALE Distribution Administration
WE05 - IDoc overview
BD87 - Inbound IDoc reprocessing
BD88 - Outbound IDoc reprocessing
BDM2 - IDoc Trace
BDM7 - IDoc Audit Analysis
BD21 - Create IDocs from change pointers
SM58 - Schedule RFC Failures
Basic config for Distributed data:
BD64: Maintain a Distributed Model
BD82: Generate Partner Profile
BD64: Distribute the distribution Model
Programs
RBDMIDOC Creating IDoc Type from Change Pointers
RSEOUT00 Process all selected IDocs (EDI)
RBDAPP01 - Inbound Processing of IDocs Ready for Transfer
RSARFCEX - Execute Calls Not Yet Executed
RBDMOIND - Status Conversion with Successful tRFC Execution
RBDMANIN - Start error handling for non-posted IDocs
RBDSTATE - Send Audit Confirmations
FOr testing you can use WE19.
There are two filtering in IDoc.
Segment Filtering:
Segment filtering can be achieved using T/Code BD56. Here you can suppress a whole segment irrespective of data inside it . You have to give Message Type / Sender Prrtner / Receiver Partner.
Data Filtering:
Data filtering can be done in dustribution model (BD64) where you can restrict whole IDOCS or partials IDOCS to be send based on data in fields inside IDOC depending on whether the segment in which you filter is at the highest level or at a lower level. For example in MATMAS if you put a filter of E1MARCM for a particular plant , only data for this plant will go and other plants will be ignored.

BAPI is also a Remote enabled function module but the difference between BAPI and RFC is in BAPI there is a bussiness object attached to it which calls SAP application internally.
BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface.
It is a library of functions that are released to the public
as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external system.

RFC:
Remote Function Call:
RFC is an SAP interface protocol. Based on CPI-C, it considerably simplifies the programming of communication processes between systems.
RFCs enable you to call and execute predefined functions in a remote system - or even in the same system.
RFCs manage the communication process, parameter transfer and error handling.
Have a look at this link.

BAPI Function module : Unable to search from Netweaver Studio
Hallo,
I developed a small BAPI Function module GetCarList etc using the tutorial <a href="http://www.sappoint.com/abap/bapiintro.pdf">Introduction to BAPIs</a> . This ofcourse is also available in help.sap.com for GetFlightList etc.
Steps Followed :
-o developed RFC based Function Module. (BAPI supported)
-o activated it, released it.
-o created a alias in the BAPI explorer, added API methods, parameters and released all of them
After i activated and released the function module, i could see it in the BAPI Explorer (Transaction SWO1) as released( ready to be used). But when i tried to search it from Netweaver Studio (to import it as a WebDynpro Model) i could not find it.
-o checked if the BAPI method is available or not in the BAPI Explorer list. (it is available and released)
-o Tried to import BAPI Func.Module - like 'GetFlightList' of Table SFLIGHT (comes with SAP examples), [ but could not] .
I have no idea what the problem could be. do let me know.
thanks
Sreenivas.Hi all,
i did check the SE37 or SE80 transaction to find out whether the current module is Remote call enabled or not. Adn well it was already RFC set. I have no idea what had happened in the last week, today it works. Now i can import the function module into netweaver. anyways thanks Achim for the support.

Difference BAPI & Functional Module
hi friends
my Q is
=> what are differences between BAPI and Function Module?
=> why Smart form is client independent? (in detail)Hi Sujit ayare ,
BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface. It is a library of functions that are released to the public as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external system.
RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to R/3 from an R/3 system.
Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as RFC functions in the SAP development workbench. They are then called RFC function modules. BAPIs are complete sets of (BAPI) function modules that model a business application.
When you are familiar with web developments: RFC can be compared to HTTP and BAPIs are CGI applications.
In other words: A BAPI function is a function module that can be called remotely using the RFC technology.
BAPI's are RFC enabled API's where as FM's are not.

How to define null or empty value in BAPI function modules?
Hi,
I have problem with BAPI functions, where some parameters are mandatory.
For example: when I try to use HR BAPI's(BAPI_PERSDATA_CHANGE, etc.) I have to insert parameters like SUBTYPE,OBJECTID,LOCKINDICATOR. The PA0002 table that is used from this BAPI doesn't have SUBTYPE, OBJECTID, LOCKINDICATOR, for any of the records that I would like to select.
So what I tried, was to put a ' ', to indicate that is empty. It returned an error message saying "Make an entry in all required fields". Next tried to put in some values for these fields -- and it returned an error message saying "No data selected from 0002 for this period".
I also tried to run BAPI_FAMILY_CHANGE that uses data from table PA0021. Here I found some records with SUBTYPE, OBJECTID fields that were not empty, but LOCKINDICATOR was still missing. So I tried to put LOCINDICATOR value directly in to database (with MS SQL Enterprise Manager). After that I was able to use BAPI_FAMILY_CHANGE.
I think that manually inserting data in database is not normal procedure.
Is there something that I have missed out?
I mean -- how can I get this to work without inserting data directly in database?
How can I define null or empty value in BAPI function modules?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
MihailDefining an empty value for a parm in a table is easy.
First get the function's definition from the SAP system
Second only populate the fields for which you have a value to set
Third execute the function.
The JCO takes care of the rest.

HOw to find the BAPI function module
Hi all,
I have a field called IEVER in table EIKP.
How to find the related BAPI function module and BAPI structure for this filed.
Thanks in advance
KPHi KP,
can you tell us the name of the transaction in which you saw this field?
If it is in PO Creation or Change you can probably look at the bapis
BAPI_PO_CREATE or BAPI_PO_CHANGE

Give the name of BAPI function module for pricing change into the transaction VA05 ?
What are the mandatory fields ?
Please give a exemple code to do this.Hi,
VA05 is for list of sales order. But if you want to change pricing of material stocks go for follwoing fn module.
BAPI_SALESORDSTCK_PRICE_CHANGE
If you want other BAPI for sales related, just go to SE37, give BAPISALE and press F4, you will get all the BAPI fn modules.

BAPI Function taking too much time
Hi,
One BAPI function BAPI_INCOMINGINVOICE_CREATE
taking too much time to process the data. do we have any alternative to reduce the time taken by the BAPI function ?
like by using any SAP Notes or any other alternative function or by any other way.
Thanks and regards,
ShailendraHI,
Please apply the OSS Note 830717. I applied this note and ran transaction code FBZ0 and the "withholding tax code" changed from XX to 03.

Is there a BAPI function module which reverses the sign of an integer
Hi Friends,
Could u plz tell me a BAPI function module which can reverse the
sign of an integer ?
For example:
if i get the integer value in work area as <number> <sign> , i need to change it to <sign><number>.
i.e if i get the integer value in work area as "248-" ("-" indicates minus sign) to " -248 ".
i.e if i get the sign after the value , my requirement is to get the sign before the value.
The actual ABAP query is:
data: QTY_1 TYPE CHAR10,
QTY_2 TYPE CHAR10,
WA_DISTK_PORTLET-QUANTITY TYPE INT4.
QTY_1 = WA_DISTK_PORTLET-QUANTITY.
SEARCH QTY_1 FOR '-'.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0 AND SY-FDPOS <> 0.
SPLIT QTY_1 AT '-' INTO QTY_1 QTY_2.
CONDENSE QTY_1.
CONCATENATE '-' QTY_1 INTO QTY_1.
CONDENSE QTY_1.
ELSE.
CONDENSE QTY_1.
ENDIF.
CLEAR: WA_DISTK_PORTLET-QUANTITY.
MOVE : QTY_1 TO WA_DISTK_PORTLET-QUANTITY.
when i move this QTY_1 to work area quantity field The sign is coming after the numeric value.
Note: There is no possibility to change the datatype of quantity field.
I have tried my level best with 'CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT' function module.
I will assign full points to the correct function module.Hi Ram,
try this ang look into fields.
data: fields type table of SVAL with header line.
fields-tabname = 'MARA'. fields-fieldname = 'MATNR'. append fields.
fields-tabname = 'BKPF'. fields-fieldname = 'BUDAT'. append fields.
CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_GET_VALUES'
EXPORTING
POPUP_TITLE = 'Value Insert'
TABLES
FIELDS = fields.
