Step-by-Step Guide for using BAPI in LSMW
Note! The screen prints in this article are from ECC 5.0. They may differ slightly in other versions.
Introduction:
This document details the usage of BAPI in LSMW. We have used the example of migration of the purchase order data into SAP.
Pre-requisites:
It is assumed that the reader of this article has the minimum knowledge required on the Business Object, BAPI, Message Types and IDoc Types.
Step-by-Step Procedure:
Details of the BAPI used in this scenario:
Business Object: BUS2012
Method: CreateFromData
Details of Message Type and Basic IDoc Type:
Message Type: PORDCR
Basic IDoc Type: PORDCR02
Lets have a look at the BAPI first, before proceeding to the LSMW:
1. Go to Transaction BAPI
2. Click on Search Button
3. Enter the value BUS2012 and select Obj.type(Technical Object Name
4. Press ENTER
5. Following screen appears:
6. On the left side of the screen, Expand the PurchaseOrder.
7. Select PurchaseOrder and double-click on the same for details.
Building LSMW using BAPI:
1. Go to Transaction LSMW.
2. Enter the Project, Subproject and Object information and click on CREATE.
3. Enter the descriptions for Project, Subproject and Object.
4. Now select Settings à IDoc Inbound Processing
5. IDoc Inbound Processing screen appears. Enter the required details as shown below:
6. Click on Activate IDoc Inbound Processing.
7. Click on Yes when prompted for Activate IDoc Inbound?
8. Hit on Back to return to the main screen.

Method: CreateFromData
Hit ENTER
12. Save and click on BACK button. Following information message is displayed.
13. Now select step 2 Maintain Source Structures and click Execute.
14. In this step, we need to maintain the source structure. In our example, lets consider the example of a file with 2 structures Head and Item data as shown below:
Click on Create and name the source structure as HEADERDATA. Now select HEADERDATA and click on Create again to create the child structure. Following popup appears:
Select Lower Level and click on Continue. Enter the Item data structure name.
Click Save and hit BACK button to go to the main screen.
15. Select step 3 Maintain Source Fields and hit execute.
16. Enter the fields as shown below:
17. Click SAVE and return to main screen.
18. Select step 4 Maintain Structure Relations and click Execute.
Select E1PORDCR and click on CREATE RelationShip. Following screen appears:
Select HEADERDATA and hit ENTER
Similarly do the same for the structure E1BPEKKOA, E1BPEKPOC and E1BPPEKET.
Click Save and return to main screen.
19. Select the step Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules and click on execute. Maintain the Field Mapping as seen below:
20. Select step 7 Maintain Source Files and provide the link for the test file created. (Create a test file with the same structure as defined earlier).
Save and return to main screen.
21. Select the step Assign Files and click on Execute.
Assign the file provided to the source structure. Here the same file is provided for both the structures.
Save and return to the main screen.
22. Select the step Read Data and click on Execute.

BDC is the way to transfer data by writing a batch input program which can use either session or call transaction method.
LSMW used to transfer data without/less code.
What type of data we transfer using LSMW?
LSMW is best suited for transferring master data.
Actually BDC and LSMW are not comparable at all.
for example LSMW itself can use BDC as a way of mass data transfer.
BDC is a mass data transfer technique via screen logic of existing SAP Data entry transactions. It behaves as if you are manually making thousand of entires into sap system as a background job. And that is probably the reason why BAPI's are preffered over BDC's.
On the other hand LSMW is a tool to facilitate DATA migration from other legacy systems ... It contains step by step procedure for data migration.
Like Managing Data Migration Projects , Creating Source Structures , Mapping Source structures wid Target structures , etc etc
LSMW internally might well be using the following techniqes for data transfer..
1. IDOX
2. Direct Input / BDC
4. BAPI's
LSMW is an encapsulated data transfer tool. It can provide the same functionality as BDC infact much more but when coming to techinical perspective most the parameters are encapulated. To listout some of the differences :
LSMW is basicaly designed for a fuctional consultant who do not do much coding but need to explore the fuctionality while BDC is designed for a technical consultant.
LSMW offers different techinque for migrating data: Direct input ,BAPI,Idoc,Batch input recording. While bdc basically uses recording.
LSMW mapping is done by SAP while in BDC we have to do it explicitly .
LSMW is basically for standard SAP application while bdc basically for customized application.
Coding can be done flexibly in BDC when compared to LSMW
see this and do accordingly

Creation of Location Master Data

What's the transaction code for creating Location master data or program SAPL0A02? Has anyone tried to do LSMW or SCAT for uploading hundreds of items?

Hi,
If I am correct we can create locations through SPRO transcation.
Enterprise Structure>Definition->Logistics General--> Define location.
Here we can create number of locations on plant wise.
The key in this field indicates a location within a plant.
You can use the location to set up a plant according to space and local area. You can assign an address to a location.
The following master data objects can be referenced to a location:
Asset master records of asset management
Equipment
Functional location
Work center
Production resource/tool

Uploading of customer balances to GL A/C

How do we upload trial balance figures. is it through lsmw or through passing JV

HI
There are 3 ways to upload Customer balances with some precausions as well..
the ways will be a. BDC b. LSMW c. scat tool
the precautions will be:
1. If it is addition to existing balances then take the existing balances from trial balaces reports.
2. consider the new balances with old balances then record (SHDB) the FB01 transaction for BDC if ur going through BDC program.
3. If it is new balances then create one new document type with number range concept.
4. After upload of the balances then tally the balances with existing ones , and disconnect the link between the document type with number ranges because with the same document type no one elce should post with the same document type.
5. Consider the correct posting keys while uploading the balances
Let me know for any assistance.

Mass Plant Upload

Hi
Can any one tell me how to upload the Plants in mass? Is there any standard available for this? LSMW and SCAT is not possible as the creation of Plant does not have a transaction code....
Solution is highly appreciated,
Thanks and Regards,
PKM

Hi Prakash,
You are trying to create about 500 plants. Just imagine what could be the master data maintenance efforts required for these 500 plants.
Can you please specify what process you are trying to configure. May be some expert will give some short solution.

Can't find the created queries in SQVI after SAP GUI Upgrade

Hi all,
I have a problem when I update my SAP GUI (7.10 -> 7.20)
After the upgrade, I can't find anymore the queries in SQVI. The liste is totally emptied...
Could you help me to find them? Or plz, just tell me I deleted them T_T
Thanks in advence.

Hello Alexander,
Thank you for your reply, but the situation didn't change... it's really strange...
We used the same PC to logon with 720, I'm sure that the parameters of SAP GUI are good, everything works correctly except SQVI. No problem with LSMW or SCAT... The most important point, this problem appears on all PC with 720 upgrade! So, it's not a local problem...but we didn't touch anything on server...maybe it was just a coincidence, somebody did something on the server in the same time of SAP GUI Upgrade...
For now, we copied the lost queries from QUALITY (it's not the last version T_T but it's better than nothing!) And we still don't know where is the source of problem.
Anyway, thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Alu

Contract price upload

What is better options to upload contract price upload
LSMW or SCAT ?

Hi
You have many options But if you know how to create LSMW then go ahead with LSMW.
Or you can get a help from ABAPer to create a BDC program to upload the price , the advantage is you do some coding to control the upload according to your requirment. For example you have more line items in Contract say 100+ then I would recommend BDC.

Scat in crm 5.0

Hi,
will SCAT in CRM 5.0 work or not. For me REcord Transaction is in deactive mode.

ram

Hi KZ,
I have CATT & eCATT active in SCC4, but still the 'record transaction' is not active in t.code scat. what could be the issue ?
I believe CATT will not work in CRM 5.0, instead we should use either eCATTs or LSMW right !!
thanks

Lsmw and CATT

Hi all ,
Please can you help me in my doubt :
a)what is the difference between Lsmw and CATT.
b)I beleive the transaction for CATT is scat.Does lsmw offer some additional utilities then CATT.
c)also I want to know for uploading data whether BDC done by an abap code is prefered over lsmw and Catt.
Thanks in advance

Hi Waman,
LSMW has more option/functionality to load data.. whereas CATT allows screen recording and loading data from file.. Data mapping/translation/routines etc. not possible with CATT..
Hope this helps..

LSMW for UI fields (Data Upload)

Hi Experts,
We need to upload data using LSMW. But problem is that there are some fields that are in UI but not in GUI. If we use recoarding methord in lsmw, then we will not be able to capture field that are in UI but not in GUI. Please suggest how to tackel with this situation.
Also is there any new methord to upload data in besides lsmw scat and BDC.
Best Regards
Pankaj Kumar

Pankaj,
This really isn't a CRM 2007 specifc question, but I will give you answer regardless. First off BDC has never been supported for data loads on CRM. You couldn't use BDC on CRM 2.0C which was released in 2001 and you still can't use it today.
For LSMW you can use the XIF idoc adapter to perform your data loads. All the major CRM business objects are supported and it works pretty decently.
To get started I suggest you read my very old blog about XIF and the product master:
The specified item was not found.
In addition search the CRM general & framework forum on XIF and LSMW(plenty of questions and answers).
Take care,
Stephen

I certainly do not use SCAT or SECATT to load master data, especially not material master.
A material master has dynamic screens, based on the material type the view selection will be different, based on entries made in MRP view fields become hidden or mandatory. Such things canot be done with a static recording.
SAP provides batch input programs and BAPIs for material master load and additonally loading per IDOC in LSMW (which offers as well batch input and Bapi methods)
