Need to update custom fields in MSEG table using "BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE"

Hi All,
There is a requirement to update custom fields in table MSEG which are part of append structure. There is a option to update the custom fields using the one of the tables parameters "EXTENSIONIN". Anyone please advice how can I update the custom field thru EXTENSIONIN.
Thanks in advance.
cheers,
Vijay

BADI MB_MIGO_BADI not updating custom field in MSEG Table

Dear Experts,
I am working on screen exit In MIGO transaction for transfer Posting.
I checked that BADI MB_MIGO_BADI having facility for screen exit and method line_modify having facility to change GOITEM Structure for the changed line item.
Now, to make this functionality work I have enhanced include structure CI_COBL which is available in both mseg table and goitem structure, now I have this customized fields on my custome tab through the enhancement and also to update this value 2 custom fields created in goitem structure and MSEG table through include structure CI_COBL.
Here my question is at the time of transfer posing creation in MIGO when I am passing the value in custom fields through screen and assigning it to custom fields of structure GOITEM through LINE_MODIFY method, it is giving me below worning message
BADI: Field GOITEM-ZZIDNLF is not ready for input. (Change is not taken over)
Now I have debuged the code, also checkout many threads and came to know that because of few checks in standred program (iNCLUDE:LMIGOKL3) these fields will not be updated WHERE IT always checks whether these fields are ready for input or not and if not ready then instead of assigning the values it throws worning message.
Now can you please through some light how can I go ahead as I have check out many threads and also tried to change value of cs_goitem structure using field symbol but throughing dump that it is blocked against changes through field symbol.
The helpful answers will be highly appriciated.

Hi,
In the badi mentioned by you GOITEM is the importing parameters & if the relevant field is not used in any MIGO screen you cannot change the data.
Please check example BADI interface: IF_EX_MB_MIGO_BADI~LINE_MODIFY
Please check the BADI documentation:
Changed data in GOITEM is only adopted if the relevant fields are visible and ready for input.
Changed data in GOITEM is not adopted if the relevant field is not used in any MIGO screen (warning via MIGO 049).
Changed data in GOITEM is not adopted if the relevant fields are not ready for input (warning via MIGO 050)
Thanks and Regards,

Updating custom fields to MSEG through MIGO

Hi,
I got a requirement to add a tab with custom fields in MIGO transaction, which I did using BADI MB_MIGO_BADI
and requirement also says to extend table MSEG with custom fields and store the values in MSEG.
I have gone through example implimentation and updated MSEG in similar way. IS it a good approach to extend MSEG table? I read one thread says we can't extend MSEG table with custom fields. is it true?
Goods receipt will be done only through MIGO to restrict inconsistensies in material documents.
One more question.
How to restrict the additional custom screen to be displayed for particular action in MIGO?
Thanks

Hi,
Yes you can do it, i did it with the same BADI method to update to custom fields in MSEG table through MIGO transaction.
Here is the steps you need to follow :-
1. Create a append structure or you can use the CI include to add fields in MSEG table. I did it though append structure only.
2. Create a implementaion of MB_MIGO_BADI through SE18 or SE19 transaction.
3. Inplement the interface IF_EX_MB_MIGO_BADI methods, the details of interface implementaions are described below:-

Updating custom fields in BSEG table

Hi Experts,
I searched through SDN but did not find satisfactory answer to my problem.
The scenario is that FIDCC2 Idoc is coming to SAP system. This Idoc has extended to include few custom fields. These fields need to be updated in table BSEG. Table BSEG also contains these custom fields. However, the Idoc processing routine is not updating custom fields in table BSEG with the data coming in Idoc. How can I do that?
Thanks in advance,
Netrey

This message is processed by function module IDOC_INPUT_FIDCC2. If you drill down into the code a little bit, you should be able to find BTE/open FI or user exit calls (CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION) before the document is being posted.
I found two that are using the ACCIT structure for passing the line items, which should contain your customer fields as well, if they were added to BSEG properly (via transaction OXK3).
Please have a look.

How to update a custom field of MARC table using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEREPLICA

Hi,
I want to update a custom field (Appended field) of MARC table using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEREPLICA. Please help me in this issue. I cannot use BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA as this updated the MARC table record by record. I have to update bulk records at a time.
Thanks
Rahul.

Hi,
Use the Documentation given for struture in BAPI docuemntation...
For loading data into custom fields of MARC use the structure - BAPI_TE_MARC.
First, structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> (<NAME> = MARA, MARC, MARD, MBEW, MLGN, MLGT, MVKE, MARM, MAKT) and the appropriate check structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> (<NAME> = MARAX, for example) have to be extended by the customer to include the required fields. The structures that are delivered as standard only contain the relevant key fields. When new fields are added to this structure, you should ensure that a field has the same name as the field in the database table. Furthermore, the fields in the structures BAPI_TE_<NAME> can only be CHARACTER fields. Data element BAPIUPDATE is to be used for the fields in the check structure (exception to this: key fields.)
Parameters EXTENSIONIN and EXTENSIONINX are used for transferring data to the method. Field STRUCTURE contains the name of the structure (for example, BAPI_TE_MARA or BAPI_TE_MARAX). This names is used to identify the work area (for example, WA_BAPI_TE_MARA or WA_BAPI_TE_MARAX) to which the data is transferred. The remaining fields in parameters EXTENSIONIN or EXTENSIONINX contain data for the key fields (for example, the material number) and the data for customer-specific fields. The number of characters reserved in both parameters for the contents of the customer-specific fields must match the number of characters for the relevant field in the work area. If the number of required characters is less, the remaining characters are left blank. Only when all characters have been filled can the contact for an additional field be transferred. Bear in mind that only data for which an appropriate indicator has been set in the work area can be updated to the database.

To Update Custom field in mch1 table through MIGO Tcode

Dear champs,
I have added one custom field in mch1 table ( date ).
Now , In MIGO Tcode when i am doing posting, MCH1 table is also updated.
I want to know how to update my custom field in mch1 table at the time of posting.
Please tell me where to write logic to update mch1 table.
Regards,
Satyen Trivedi

Hi Satyen,
what data has to be update in MCH1 table new field, for this did you added any screen or you want to implement your own custom logic.
1) if you implemented the screen , then you have to write logic there itself.
2) If you want to update through custom logic , then you takeup with the Enhancements or BADI.

Updating custom field in standard table ERCH

Hi All,
I'm trying to update a custom field bill type in table ERCH.I could not find any function for ERCH table and hence i am using enqueue dequeue with update statement.During debugging,the field BELNR(bill doc) is seen with a value for bill document but if at that moment i take that bill doc and put in table ERCH,it shows no entries found.Because of this reason,sy-subrc is not zero and bill type does not get updated.Any suggestions here are welcome.
Thanks,
Shreeraj

Thanks for your replies,
I need to update the custom field bill type in table ERCH depending upon the bill transaction( if bill transaction is periodic,bill type will be updated as P and so on for other cases)
I am implementing a BADI ISU_DEF_BILL_PERIOD and i have used case statements(when abrvorg is P,bill type is P). While debugging i saw that the importing parameter bill document is generated but if i enter the same bill document number at that point in time in table ERCH, it shows no entries found. Thus sy-subrc is retrieved as not zero and hence the custom field bill type does not get updated.
I would like to know how do i go about this requirement since it seems that the bill document entry is made in table ERCH outside this BADI.How do i update the bill type in table ERCH based on the billing transaction?
Thanks,
Shreeraj

The thing is that XSLT often doesn't deliver the functionality required when it comes to times.
You suggest appening "Z" to the time but this means that the time is now in UTC time. What if the system from where the date is being converted is running in NZ using local time? Other systems that recieve the date (and correctly handle the time zone) will now have a time that is out by a number of hours.
You often can't ignore the time zone (drop the 'Z') as if you send the time to a system it has to either assume the time is local to it (which may not be the case... the other system coudl be in a different time zone) or assume the time is UTC (I think crossfire does this by default).
Typically can't just append a time zone (e.g. +11:00) either as many places have daylight savings so the value to appended is variable (you then need some way of determining what the value is... either Java Embedding or a Service).
As you mention it does depend on the use case but in many circumstances using Jaba Embedding, not as suggested above but with the appropriate Java.util.Calendar classes, is the best way to handle date and time in BPEL. Even still you need to ascertain the format of times external to the system and ensure you parse them correctly.
ANd even if you do all this you can still run into problems. I've seen a real world example where two systems which both handled time zones correctly and had previously been working together for quite a while, satrted reporting different times. It turns out that only one of them had had the most recent Java Time Zone patches applied and there had been a change in the dates for daylight savings here (Australia). Be warned!

Ideal way to update a field in a table

Hi All,
We need to update a field in a table which have some 8 million records.
The value of the field needs to be updated in all the above mentioned records.
Now, we have an input file with all the primary key fields and the field to be updated.
Can any one suggest the ideal way to update the field.
1.     Updating the database for each record.
Loop at itab.
Update.
Endloop.
2.     Updating the database with a set of 100 records.
We are planning to schedule the job in the background.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
be very carefull with the update, ´cause you can damage 8 million records !!
You better use instruction Update for this:
update mytable set field = value where conditions.
Try to use all key fields in the conditions and never use something like
update mytable set: field1 = value1
                    field2 = value2
                    field3 = value3 where conditions.
The loop in your case 1 is not absolutely necessary, ´cause you update a whole bunch of records at once with the conditions in Update.
Test the changes in the development system before you do it in production

Update 2 fields in 1 table

I need to update an Oracle 8i database. I need to update 2 fields in 1 table with about 2,000 rows of data.
Right now the date is stored in an Excell file in columns A and B.
I need Something like:
Update Table1
set field1 with value from A:1,
set field2 with value from B:1
repeated with A:2,B:2 and so on

I believe you could use sql loader to get your excel file in but here is a way I cheat to do it.
I save the excel file as a comma deliminated file (I think it is .csv)
then I open it up and copy and paste it into the following. (the part that says paste flat file here)
this is assuming 8i supports model clause I'm unsure on that point.
create or replace view view_xl_file_to_table as
select * from
with t as (select
--- copy paste your flat file here
' Bob,Jones,12345,Employee
Fred,Thebes,32,Manager
John,Smith,12,Employee
Karl,Cane,432,Employee
George,Johnson,54,Manager
' flat_text_file from dual

model return updated rows
dimension by (0 d)
measures (flat_text_file, 0 position_of_return ) -- the position of return is where the next carriage return is
rules iterate(1000) until position_of_return[iteration_number+1] = 0
position_of_return[iteration_number + 1] = instr(flat_text_file[0],chr(10),1,iteration_number + 1), -- find the next carriage return
-- get the text between the previous carriage return and the next and make it a row
flat_text_file[iteration_number + 1] = replace(substr( flat_text_file[0],
