BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN released network

HI all!
I'm using the BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN to update DURATION_NORMAL and WORK_ACTIVITY in our network.
It works fine if network is new, but when we release the network and try to update them, the system do not update anything, while doing this operation via transaction works fine.

Hello Marco,
                    To get more details you need to debub the both options as in the logic SAP is calling another report "R_BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN" using submit statement inside the FM "BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN".
And also befor the submit statement they gad used the EXPORT statement to save the data to the SAP memory.
Inside the Report BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN" SAP logic is calling the FM "2002_NETWORK_MAINTAIN" for doing the update.
So if the Export memory content gets changed due to another execution then the returm value may get changed and end up with conflicts.
So better you need to debub the both scenarios (SE37 & from program call).
You can knock out the problem you are facing.
Hope this answers your question.
Thanks,

Err in creating Activit under tab Ext. Process using BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

I need to create activity under tab Ext. Processing for a network and i am planning to use BAPI "BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN" for this purpose. I am able to create activity under "Int. Processing" using this BAPI but got error for "Ext. Processing" tab.
Below is the code i am doing for ext. processing tab.

Hi,
1)
I would suggest declaring a structure of type BAPE_VBAP & BAPE_VBEP...Then move the values instead of using offset..
Example
DATA: S_BAPE_VBAP TYPE BAPE_VBAP.
Populate the Extension structure WITH Order commited flag
LW_EXT_STRUCTURE-STRUCTURE = C_BAPE_VBAP.
S_BAPE_VBAP-VBELN = W_VBAP-VBELN.
S_BAPE_VBAP-POSNR = W_VBAP-POSNR.
S_BAPE_VBAP-ZZORDCOFL = W_VBAP-ZZ_ORDCOFL.
LW_EXT_STRUCTURE-VALUEPART1 = S_BAPE_VBAP.
This will make sure the BAPE_VBAP is extended with the Z fields..
2)
You are checking only for abort messages...You are not checking for error messages..
Instead of this..
READ TO CHECK THE ERROR AND ABORT MESSAGES DURING BAPI CALL
READ TABLE LT_RETURN_TAB INTO LW_RETURN_TAB
WITH KEY TYPE = C_MSGTYP_A
BINARY SEARCH.
Have this code..
LOOP AT LT_RETURN_TAB WHERE TYPE = 'E' OR TYPE = 'A'.
EXIT.
ENDLOOP.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
WRITE: / 'ERROR'.
ELSE.
WRITE: / 'SUCCESS'.
ENDIF.
This will make sure there are no error messages..Also check the return table for error messages in the debugging mode..
Thanks,

Usage of BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Dear All,
    I have a requirement where in I have to delete multiple activities from a network using a Z transaction and then renumber the existing activity numbers.
    For deleting the activities, currently I have used BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN with method u2018DELETEu2019. But for renumbering of the activity numbers I am not
    Sure how to do that.
    When I delete activities using this BAPI, I see that it is just setting the Deletion flag for that activity as u2018Xu201D and the activity number still exist in the database.
    Because of this I understand that I cannot reuse the same activity number. Also in BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN I see that we can update the details for activity
    Using I_ACTIVITY_UPDATE parameter. But even with this I donu2019t think we can change only activity details but not activity number.
   Can anyone tell me how to achieve the functionality of deleting and renumbering for my requirement? Appreciate your quick response on this.
    Please let me know if I am not clear in explaining my requirement.
Regards
Priya

Hi,
I think sequence is you need to renumber the activity first and then delete that activity. Instead of using BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN, you can use batch input in the Z program or you can create your own BAPI (for renumbering) with batch input inside the BAPI.
Hope this helps.

BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN how to specify link duration in percent ?

HI,
I'm trying tu use the BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN to update data about activities.
I need to create links between activities.
When the unit of duration of the link to create is WEEKS, DAYS and etc. It works properly :
I fill table "relation" with :
   -network predecessor, activitye predecessor
   - network successor, activity successor
   - type of relaion (FS for example )
   - duration_relation_unit = WCH for example
When teh duration is in percent I try the same thing except that
   duration_relation_unit = %
but I have the following error message :
% is not a valid time unit for the duartion of the relationship
Could you please tell me how to flle relation table in case of duration_relation in percent ?
Regards,
Morgan

please, i would like to know that number to put in the field: i_method_project-refnumber
thx

Activity relation using bapi bapi_network_maintain

hi gurus,
i wrote a upload program to create relation between the activities using the bapi bapi_networ_maintain .
I used refnumber Objecttype                method         object key
              000001    NetworkRelation      CREATE        FS0000600001610280
              000000                                    save
for i_method_project table
object key is formed with the combination of
wa_tab-relation_type wa_tab-net_pd wa_tab-activity_predecessor
                    wa_tab-net_sc wa_tab-activity_successor INTO w_objkey
here in my program objectkey value is obtained from the bellow values.
                                    wa_tab-relation_type value is 'FS'
                                     wa_tab-net_pd VALUE is empty (there is no value for this field in excel sheet)
                                     wa_tab-activity_predecessor value is ' 000060000161'
                                      wa_tab-net_sc value is empty ((there is no value for this field in excel sheet)
                                        wa_tab-activity_successor   value is ' 0280'
when i run the program I am getting the bellow error ..........
An incorrect object key was entered for object type Relationship
kindly sugest the solution for my problem.
thanks in advance,
padmaja.

Hi ,
I think there is some error in the code written as you have mentioned that
object key is formed with the combination of
wa_tab-relation_type wa_tab-net_pd wa_tab-activity_predecessor
wa_tab-net_sc wa_tab-activity_successor INTO w_objkey
but as per the documentation found for this particular BAPI ( bapi_network_maintain ) ,
there should be only 1 object type , and can be a single network .
Please look into the documentation by opening this BAPI in system and try to write the program as per the rules.
May your problem get resolved .
And I suggest you to post this thread to Abap Forum , and there you can get the exact solution.
Thanks ,

Example code for BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Hi All,
I need to create a network, network activity and its components using BAPI (BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN).
Can any one tell me out to find the mandatory tables and its parameters.
if possible with example code.
One More question, when i am creating a network, Which network number do i need to pass as objectkey in IMETHOD table ?
Same number i need to pass in INETWORK table also?
Do i need to use some existing number or the number will be assigned by system?
When the BAPI ends with error, i can see error messages in message table.
if BAPI is success, does it give any messages like success message.
Thanks,
Swapna.

Question on BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Hi All,
Iam facing a Problem with this bapi BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN .
I have populated the field activity_successor in the internal table it_relation which we export to Function Module.
But it is throwing an error stating *Activity 1492 does not exist in the network " " *
Below is my code :
       wa_method-objecttype   = c_object_type. "Network relation
       wa_method-method       = c_method.        "Create
       wa_method-objectkey    = 'FS00000090445314910000009044531492'.
       wa_method-refnumber    = c_refnumber.    "000001
       APPEND wa_method TO it_method.
      CLEAR wa_method.
      wa_method-objecttype   = ''.
      wa_method-method       = c_method1. " Save
      wa_method-objectkey    = ''.
      wa_method-refnumber    = ''.
      APPEND wa_method TO it_method.
populate network table
      wa_network-network       = wa_nrel-o_network.
      APPEND wa_network TO it_network.
     wa_relation-activity_successor           = wa_nrel-n_act_succ. "Activity successor = 1492
      wa_relation-relation_type                  = wa_nrel-relation_type. " FS

      wa_relation-duration_relation             = wa_nrel-duration_relation. " D
      APPEND wa_relation TO it_relation.
wa_nrel is the work area which holds the data. I have mentioned the data which work area contains in the right corner.
My network number is 904453 and acitvity number are 1491 and 1492

from err msg it looks like network number is not passed.
try passing
NETWORK_ PREDECESSOR = same network number
NETWORK_ SUCCESSOR = same network number
that's how shown in SAP help

Bapi_network_maintain -error handling

Hi ,
I am using bapi_network_maintain to create networks. The BAPI is called from portal screens .
This BAPI internally does the same checks as done in CJ20n.
=>Test Data - project which has a Profit center - X. and X - is locked in the system .
When BAPI is called to create network for this project the program terminates without dumps .
If i do a single test in R/3 I get a message E(000) - error informing that the profit center is locked .
As this error is not recognized from portal the program terminates . I need to handle this error . Any such error should be properly sent back to the portal. How do i handle this ?
BAPI- calls a report and in the report there are FM calls which somewhere internally check profit center .
If i try to catch the error using error_message in the BAPI ... it does not work.
Any idea how to catch these type of errors?
Thanks in advance.

Dear all,
Anybody give me some idea?
Thanks,
Sam

Dates issue with BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Dear Frens,
I have issue with dates in the activities and in the header of network while using BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN. I am creating a new network with the deleted activities of an already
existing network. The network is being created with the activity early_start_Date and finsh dates as
sy-datum and the network header has early start dates set to sy-datum.
While passing values to the table parameter I_ACTIVITY of the BAPI , the dates are as available in the
existing network. But for unknown reason, The newly created network dates are with the today's date.
Can any one please let me know the possible reason for this.
Also every time I create a new network with multiple activities the new network is being created without first activity of the set of activities to be created.
Here also the table parameter I_ACTIVITY has all the activities that are to be created for new network.
I appreciate your quick response on this.
Regards
Priya

Hi Lakshmi,
I was able to solve the problem but not by the answer you gave. I had to write a WAIT up to 3 seconds after commit and that updated the table.Thanks anyways

Problem with BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN

Hello,
       I am try to create network activities using this FM. With external activities i keep getting error message CK 204 "Cost element xxxxxx does not exist".
I am transferring i_activity-Cost_Elem with leading zeros and the cost element does exist in CSKB.
(Without the leading 0's i get the error G/L account xxxxxxxx does not exist).
Does anyone know of a solution?

        Problem solved ! I discovered that I need to set the field CONTROL_KEY of I_ACTIVITY table, with the value PS01(that means "Network - internal processing" - I don´t know if this is the only correct value yet, I will ask for a PS functional consultant in the next week about this).
        Thank you, and best regards.

BAPI_NETWORK_MAINTAIN Budget Check

Hello Experts,
Does anybody know why this BAPI FM is doing the Budget Check and Determining Costs when I Create the Network Activities for a Project with it?
All the activities have no price or cost, and I have nu material components in the project.
This Budget Check takes a lot of minuts, and I really don't need it.
Thank you.

Hi
Network will be created individually but the reading happens as project, WBS, activities and then network. When you upload the activities system will check for budget on WBS element. System may try to read the activities under network first (though they are not created) and thus checks for budget. I am not sure but when I checked up with SAP this is the answer from them.
