BDC with BAPI

How to upload the data by using BAPI Function Module in BDC.
The FM i am using is : BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST.
so, by using that FM, with BDC how to i post the GL Accounts
Thanks

I want purchase order bdc or bapi with full solution

hi,
if any one have purchase order bdc or bapi with full solution . plz send me .
thanking u,

hi
Just take all required fields to create PO into one internal table . Just use BAPI_PO_CREATE1 function module. In that function module give internal table name. It will create the PO. Extra decorations like error messages and all you need to take care.
Reward if it helpful.

ABAP interfaces build using BDC and BAPIs can be used/replaced with the XI?

Hi,
We have develeloped our interfases using BDC and BAPIs. Now our client has decited to implement XI. Now could you please help in finding whether these interfaces can be used/replaced with the XI.
If yes, please let us know how?
Thanks and Regards,

Why BDC when we can do the same with Bapi's

Hiii
Plz tell me why BDC when we can do the same with Bapi...
plz list out the differences clearly
Thanks & Regards
krishna

If the same functionality can be achieved by BAPI then we generally go for BAPI instead of BDC. The main reason is that the screen no can change in the next version and in that case the BDC code will not work. But if no BAPI is available then we go for BDC.
Sometimes we need to handle a large amount of data in BDC/BAPI in which it is not preferable to use 'CALL TRANSACTION' command. If the corresponding BAPI internally use 'CALL TRANSACTION' command. Then instead of that BAPI we create a BDC with SESSION METHOD.
Ex: IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS internally use CALL TRANSACTION. So if we need to use a large amount of data we create a BDC with session method instead of using IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS.

Reg: Mandatory fields updation with BAPI

Hi..
We are working on BDC using BAPI. In this if flat files contians only 4 fields and the mandatory fields in the application are seven then system needs to through error message. But with BAPI the program is updating the database without throwing error eventhough all mandatory fileds are not filled up with data.. Where exactly we need to do modifications to get error message when mandatory fields are not filled up with input.
Regards

Hi Verendra
Sometimes the function modules/BAPI's used by SAP do a direct update on the database tables. In such scnearios the entries are created in the system even though if the mandatory entries are not filled.
If the number of mandatory fields are small, then before the BAPI call, check if all the mandatory fields are filled or not;throw error in case of empty fields & bypass the BAPI call.
In case the mandatory fields are too high, then in that case, please use BDC recording to update the data.

BDC Using BAPI

Hi All,
Pls Send me sample code for using Bapi in a Bdc Program to upload Flat file
(non-SAP) Data into SAP R/3 .
Rgds
Rafi .

Hi
You can straight use a BAPI and upload the data into SAP like how you do using a BDC program.
see the doc
BAPI - BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) are the standard SAP interfaces. They play an important role in the technical integration and in the exchange of business data between SAP components, and between SAP and non-SAP components. BAPIs enable you to integrate these components and are therefore an important part of developing integration scenarios where multiple components are connected to each other, either on a local network or on the Internet.
BAPIs allow integration at the business level, not the technical level. This provides for greater stability of the linkage and independence from the underlying communication technology.
LSMW- No ABAP effort are required for the SAP data migration. However, effort are required to map the data into the structure according to the pre-determined format as specified by the pre-written ABAP upload program of the LSMW.
The Legacy System Migration Workbench (LSMW) is a tool recommended by SAP that you can use to transfer data once only or periodically from legacy systems into an R/3 System.
More and more medium-sized firms are implementing SAP solutions, and many of them have their legacy data in desktop programs. In this case, the data is exported in a format that can be read by PC spreadsheet systems. As a result, the data transfer is mere child's play: Simply enter the field names in the first line of the table, and the LSM Workbench's import routine automatically generates the input file for your conversion program.
The LSM Workbench lets you check the data for migration against the current settings of your customizing. The check is performed after the data migration, but before the update in your database.
So although it was designed for uploading of legacy data it is not restricted to this use.
We use it for mass changes, i.e. uploading new/replacement data and it is great, but there are limits on its functionality, depending on the complexity of the transaction you are trying to replicate.
The SAP transaction code is 'LSMW' for SAP version 4.6x.
Check your procedure using this Links.
BAPI with LSMW
http://esnips.com/doc/ef04c89f-f3a2-473c-beee-6db5bb3dbb0e/LSMW-with-BAPI
For document on using BAPI with LSMW, I suggest you to visit:
http://www.****************/Tutorials/LSMW/BAPIinLSMW/BL1.htm
what is BAPI?
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.
The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
Reading instances of SAP business objects
GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values, for example, company codes and material numbers.
The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved and returned to the calling program. The instance is identified via its key. The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method. BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed so that they can be called several times within one transaction. For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction, the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2. After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
Change( )
The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type, for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database or sets a deletion flag.
The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type. The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst! ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance. These BAPIs are instance methods.

Bdc to Bapi
The steps to be followed are :
1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
[for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2]
2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
-> Importing structures.
eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
-> Tables parameters:
eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
Note :
Only specify fields that should be changed
Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
U = change
D = delete
I = add
Example
1. Delete the whole order
2. Delete order items
3. Change the order
4. Change the configuration
Notes
1. Minimum entry:
You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
You must always enter key fields for changes.
You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
2. Commit control:
The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.
Bapi to VB(Visual Basic)
Long back I had used the following flow structure to acheive the same.
Report -> SM59 RFC destination -> COM4ABAP -> VB.exe
my report uses the rfc destination to create a COM session with com4abap. com4abap calls the vb.exe and manages the flow of data between sap and vb exe.
You need to have com4abap.exe
If com4abap is installed you will find it in sapgui installatin directory , C:\Program Files\SAPpc\sapgui\RFCSDK\com4abap.
else refer OSS note 419822 for installation of com4abap
after making the settings in com4abap to point to the vb program and setting up rfc destination in sm59 to point to com4abap session , you can use the following function modules to call the vb code.
for setting up com4abap and rfc destination please refer to the documentation for com4abap.
Invoke NEW DCOM session
call function 'BEGIN_COM_SESSION'
exporting
service_dest = service_dest "(this will be a RFC destination created in SM59)
importing
worker_dest = worker_dest
exceptions
connect_to_dcom_service_failed = 1
connect_to_dcom_worker_failed = 2
others = 3.
call function 'create_com_instance' destination worker_dest
exporting
clsid = g_c_clsid
typelib = g_c_typelib
importing
instid = g_f_oid
exceptions
communication_failure = 1 message g_f_msg
system_failure = 2 message g_f_msg
invalid_instance_id = 3
others = 4.
call function 'com_invoke' destination worker_dest
exporting
%instid = g_f_oid
%method = 'UpdatePDF'
sntemp = g_v_const_filent
snsysid = sy-sysid
snflag = 'N'
tables
rssaptable = g_t_pdfdetail1
%return = g_t_pdfdetail1 "t_test
exceptions
communication_failure = 1 message g_f_msg
system_failure = 2 message g_f_msg
invalid_instance_id = 3
others = 4.
then close the com session , using
FM delete_com_instance
FM END_COM_SESSION

Rewrite process and remove the call to f-54 and replace with bapi proces

Hi Gurus,
Please help me to find the soultion.
The root cause of this continual problem is the design and use of BDC session for F-54. Is there a redesign possible with ECC6.0?
I wanted to rewrite the process and remove the call to f-54 and replace with bapi process.
if this is now possible in ECC 6.0
The benefit would be to better control what PO was used in the DP recoupment.
Thanking you,
Raju Singhireddy.

BDC or BAPI for me01 and me02 please read the requirement below

Hi Experts
I am having one requirement ,that
I need to write a BDC program for Source list
My alt file is having 3 filed with
matnr werks lifnr
if the material no and werks are same and the lifnr is not existing then it has to add the new vendor with the material and werks to the source list
if matnr werks and lifnr are not existing then need to create a new source list
flat file
10000001 4200 0230000000
10000001 4200 0230000000
10000001 4200 0230000000
10000001 4200 0230000001
10000002 4210 0230000002
see in this flat file I'm having two diffrent vendors
suppose in eord table existing
matnr , werks,lifnr
10000001   4200 0230000000
so nw it has to check for whether vendor is existing or not if existing nothing to do if not then it has to add the new vendor
if matnr werks and lifnr or not existing then it has to create new source list
means create the vendor
Is there any BAPI or any sample prog is thr    please provide me
WILL GIVE YOU POINTS IMMEDIATELY
Thanks in advance

Bdc,lsmw,bapi

hello all,
please tell me about difference between bdc , lsmw, bapi
Moderator Message: Search for available information before posting.
Edited by: kishan P on Dec 28, 2010 4:32 PM

Hi Karthik,
All the 3 can be used for the same purpose.
BDC - was the first provided by SAP for mass data entry in to SAP Database with Screen checks
LSMW - Originated as a 3rd party tool with many more functionalities and ease of use
BAPI - Some times the transaction screens changes, in those cases the BDC's fail as they purely refer to the screen elements. BAPI's provide a more consistent way to make entries in SAP systems without referencing the screen elements but still adhering to the underlying business logic, so the data entry is syntactically and semantically correct.
Hope this helps.

Gaurav

Disadvantages of Using BDC over BAPI

Hello ,
could you please clear my confusion as why BDC are not supposed to be used for data uploading over bapis.
What are the advantages and disadvantages between BDC and BAPI
thanks in Advance
PAvan

Hi Pavan,
BDC is slower because it additionally processes the screens. This is a big disadvantage (could be more than 10 times slower). An advantage on BDC processing is that you can later view an process the data manually.
With BAPIs (which are not necessarily OO) you have to have some error handling in place if one of the imported data sets fails (sometimes done with restartable jobs, look for example into the documentation of RFBIBL00).
Also, as already mentioned, changes of the screen layout and/or the GUI status will very likely make your BDC sessions fail (no matter these changes were caused by customising settings or a patch).

BDC with disabled fields

Hi all,
I'm writing a BDC program for a transaction that might contain disabled fields. At run time I can't determine wich fields are disabled so the BDC doesn't work when I try to write in a those fields. Does anyone know how I can solve this issue?

"Blind Data Carry" - that's a new one on me... it used to be Batch Data Communication!
When you say "can't determine which fields are disabled", well generally you can do this - but it may require a lot of code and database lookups i.e. SAP itself determines which fields to block at runtime depending on configuration and data values and other switches therefore it should be technically possible to anticipate which are open for input and which are not. If you chat to your functional guys, they can often give you broad business rules that might help e.g. "Balance Sheet GL accounts won't have Cost Centre open for input" which may help you write something a little easier. You're likely to have the same problem with BAPIs - if you provide data values that are not required the BAPI may issue an error too.
Which transactions are you trying to BDC into?

.can anybody explain the bdc with help of an example

i am new to bdc .can anybody explain the bdc with help of an example

Hi,
BDC is method to transfer legacy data into R3 system.
Data transfer can be done in any one method below:
BDC
LSMW
Direct Input method
BAPI
Of these BDC is subdivided into 2 types,
Call Transaction and Session method (TCode: SM35)
Let me give the sample prg for Call Transaction method.
tables ZMATMASTER.
DATA : itab like TABLE OF ZMATMASTER WITH KEY DESCRIPTION with header line.
DATA : IT_BDC LIKE TABLE OF BDCDATA WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : IT_MSG LIKE TABLE OF BDCMSGCOLL WITH HEADER LINE.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
EXPORTING
    FILENAME                      = 'C:\Material.txt'
    FILETYPE                      = 'ASC'
    HAS_FIELD_SEPARATOR           = '#'
TABLES
    DATA_TAB                      = itab.
LOOP AT ITAB.

    PERFORM BDC_DATA   USING 'ZMATMASTER-DDAYS' ITAB-DDAYS.
    PERFORM BDC_DATA   USING 'ZMATMASTER-FLOT' ITAB-FLOT.
ENDLOOP.

                 USING IT_BDC
                 MODE 'A'
                 UPDATE 'S'
