Problem with bapi_goodsmvt_create

hi all,
iam using bapi_goodsmvt_create to do a goods recipt for a PO. while running the error message iam getting is
"No goods receipt possible for PO 2200000065 010". But i can do it manually the recipt using MIGO for that PO & if i delete that Goods Recipt manually and if i run the program again, the program is picking that PO and its recipting properly as expected.
the requirement is it should do it for the first time itself, rather than receipting manually & deleting that receipt & running the program again
Help me in this issue,
Cheers,
Prem.

here is the program...

  • Problem with BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE and MAA

    Hi experts,
       I'm trying to GR a PO with MAA (Multiple Account Assingment) by using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE.
       My problem is that, as is a return delivery,  BAPI is checking wether the reference doc, position and year have been populated for the MAA related positions.
       This is done in method CL_MMIM_MAA_2 --> MAA_ITEM_DUPLICATOR_BAPI. As ain't populating those fields, BAPI returns error message M7 465 and not EM document is created.
       But, when doing the same by using MIGO transaction, document is created as there is not validation for reference document, because MIGO is using method CL_MMIM_MAA_2 --> MAA_ITEM_DUPLICATOR_MIGO.
       I've ssearched fot SAP NOTES (1654305) and SCN posts, with no results.
      Can someone explain how to do a return delivery with MAA by using BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE?. Is there any way to avoid the validation when using the BAPI?.
    Thank you so much in advance.
    Regards,
    Carlos.

    Hi,
       I think the reason and the solution for the error M7 465 is well explained in the note:  1654305 - MAA2 error M7 599 during return delivery GR with BAPI
       If the note is applicable for you and still the problem is not solved with the note, you may cross check the changes mentioned in the note and you may raise an OSS ticket to SAP.

  • Problem with BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to transfer stock

    Hi all,
    i met a problem when i use BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to transfer stock from one stock to another stock (one step).
    parameters:
    Goodsmvt_code = '04'  " MB1B
    Material,Plant,Stge_loc,Batch,Move_type,move_plant,Move_stloc,Move_batch
    Matdoc_item,Serialno
    then execute the bapi. i get the successful result.
    but when i check the stock, nothing happened.
    i also check the table SER03. the material documents didn't generate.
    i use MB1B to do it directly. the material is transfered and the material documents also generated.
    can anyone tell me what's wrong and what should i do? thank you very much.

    Dear Dave,
    Actually the Bapi that you user is a Test Function , so it will not posted,just do simulation, you need to copy the FM to program then commit it, then it will post the document.

  • Problem with  BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE  FM - intersting Issue

    HI all,
    I need to do the GR for an open inbound delivery. At the item level of precessing document i.e PO 'No goods receipt' check is marked. Same thing is copied to my inbound delivery 'No goods Movement' is marked in Adminstrative tab of my inbound delivery item.
    When I use the BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE to do GR for this Inbound delivery, it throws an error saying that 'No goods receipt possible for the PO item'.
    But when I do the same thing manually it happened successfully by creating a "service confirmation document" and changed the goods movement status as C (fully completed) without creating an material document as these items are no relevant items for goods movement.
    As we are moving goods directly from Vendor to customer, just we want to do service confirmation to vendor without any goods movement. It happening manually but not through BAPI. Please suggest.
    Helpful anwers are certainly rewared
    Thanks,
    Raggs.

    Hi,
    Incase a goods movement document is not getting created then it will not be possible to use the BAPI BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE.
    Although your process is interesting but its a widely used process.
    I think there should be a service order in this scenario against which the confirmation may be happening.
    Check any BAPI is available for creating the service order document and then confirming teh same
    Check with your functional consultant to explain you the entire cycle and then check for some BAPI or FM available.
    Regards,

  • BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE Problem with movement 161

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a problem with BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE and movement type 161. We used to put 161 as the movement type when referencing a PO with "Returns Item" marked. Movement was properly posted. But now I am facing the following issue, when trying to post 161 I have the message "No goods receipt possible for purchase order 4200000084 ...", If I use movement type 101 system will assume 161 and everything is OK, but I don't understand why I could use 161 before and now I can´t, this is happening with all my POs with "Returns Item" marked.
    I understand that I can just use 101, the problem is that this will require a change in a non-SAP system... that is why we prefer still using 161.
    Any help will be highly appreciatted.
    Thanks!

    Use WAIT for 5 seconds before COMMIT. It may work.

  • A problem with threads

    I am trying to implement some kind of a server listening for requests. The listener part of the app, is a daemon thread that listens for connections and instantiates a handling daemon thread once it gets some. However, my problem is that i must be able to kill the listening thread at the user's will (say via a sto button). I have done this via the Sun's proposed way, by testing a boolean flag in the loop, which is set to false when i wish to kill the thread. The problem with this thing is the following...
    Once the thread starts excecuting, it will test the flag, find it true and enter the loop. At some point it will LOCK on the server socket waiting for connection. Unless some client actually connects, it will keep on listening indefinatelly whithought ever bothering to check for the flag again (no matter how many times you set the damn thing to false).
    My question is this: Is there any real, non-theoretical, applied way to stop thread in java safely?
    Thank you in advance,
    Lefty

    This was one solution from the socket programming forum, have you tried this??
    public Thread MyThread extends Thread{
         boolean active = true;          
         public void run(){
              ss.setSoTimeout(90);               
              while (active){                   
                   try{                       
                        serverSocket = ss.accept();
                   catch (SocketTimeoutException ste){
                   // do nothing                   
         // interrupt thread           
         public void deactivate(){               
              active = false;
              // you gotta sleep for a time longer than the               
              // accept() timeout to make sure that timeout is finished.               
              try{
                   sleep(91);               
              }catch (InterruptedException ie){            
              interrupt();
    }

  • Problem with Threads and a static variable

    I have a problem with the code below. I am yet to make sure that I understand the problem. Correct me if I am wrong please.
    Code functionality:
    A timer calls SetState every second. It sets the state and sets boolean variable "changed" to true. Then notifies a main process thread to check if the state changed to send a message.
    The problem as far I understand is:
    Assume the timer Thread calls SetState twice before the main process Thread runs. As a result, "changed" is set to true twice. However, since the main process is blocked twice during the two calls to SetState, when it runs it would have the two SetState timer threads blocked on its synchronized body. It will pass the first one, send the message and set "changed" to false since it was true. Now, it will pass the second thread, but here is the problem, "changed" is already set to false. As a result, it won't send the message even though it is supposed to.
    Would you please let me know if my understanding is correct? If so, what would you propose to resolve the problem? Should I call wait some other or should I notify in a different way?
    Thanks,
    B.D.
    Code:
    private static volatile boolean bChanged = false;
    private static Thread objMainProcess;
       protected static void Init(){
            objMainProcess = new Thread() {
                public void run() {
                    while( objMainProcess == Thread.currentThread() ) {
                       GetState();
            objMainProcess.setDaemon( true );
            objMainProcess.start();
        public static void initStatusTimer(){
            if(objTimer == null)
                 objTimer = new javax.swing.Timer( 1000, new java.awt.event.ActionListener(){
                    public void actionPerformed( java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt){
                              SetState();
        private static void SetState(){
            if( objMainProcess == null ) return;
            synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
                bChanged = true;
                try{
                    objMainProcess.notify();
                }catch( IllegalMonitorStateException e ) {}
        private static boolean GetState() {
            if( objMainProcess == null ) return false;
            synchronized( objMainProcess ) {
                if( bChanged) {
                    SendMessage();
                    bChanged = false;
                    return true;
                try {
                    objMainProcess.wait();
                }catch( InterruptedException e ) {}
                return false;
        }

    Thanks DrClap for your reply. Everything you said is right. It is not easy to make them alternate since SetState() could be called from different places where the state could be anything else but a status message. Like a GREETING message for example. It is a handshaking message but not a status message.
    Again as you said, There is a reason I can't call sendMessage() inside setState().
    The only way I was able to do it is by having a counter of the number of notifies that have been called. Every time notify() is called a counter is incremented. Now instead of just checking if "changed" flag is true, I also check if notify counter is greater than zero. If both true, I send the message. If "changed" flag is false, I check again if the notify counter is greater than zero, I send the message. This way it works, but it is kind of a patch than a good design fix. I am yet to find a good solution.
    Thanks,
    B.D.

  • Problem with threads running javaw

    Hi,
    Having a problem with multi thread programming using client server sockets. The program works find when starting the the application in a console using java muti.java , but when using javaw multi.java the program doesnt die and have to kill it in the task manager. The program doesnt display any of my gui error messages either when the server disconnect the client. all works find in a console. any advice on this as I havent been able to understand why this is happening? any comment would be appreciated.
    troy.

    troy,
    Try and post a minimum code sample of your app which
    does not work.
    When using javaw, make sure you redirect the standard
    error and standard output streams to file.
    Graeme.Hi Graeme,
    I dont understand what you mean by redirection to file? some of my code below.

  • Problem with threads and camera.

    Hi everybody!
    I've a problem with taking snapshot.
    I would like to display a loading screen after it take snapshot ( sometimes i
    have to wait few seconds after i took snapshot. Propably photo is being taken in time where i have to wait).
    I was trying to use threads but i didn't succeed.
    I made this code:
    display.setCurrent(perform);               
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {               
                    while((!performing.isShown()) && (backgroundCamera.isShown())){
                        Thread.yield();
                    notifyAll();
            }).start();
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {
                    try {
                        this.wait();                   
                    } catch(Exception e) {
                        exceptionHandler(e);
                    photo = camera.snapshot();                               
                    display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
            }).start();This code is sometimes showing performing screen but sometimes no.
    I don't know why. In my opinion performing.isShown() method isn't working correctly.
    Does anyone have some idea how to use threads here?

    Hi,
    I've finally managed to work this fine.
    The code:
           Object o = new Object();
           display.setCurrent(perform);               
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {               
                    while(!performing.isShown()){
                        Thread.yield();
                   synchronized(o) {
                      o.notify();
            }).start();
            new Thread(new Runnable(){
                public void run() {
                    try {
                        synchronized(o) {
                           o.wait(1);
                    } catch(Exception e) {
                        exceptionHandler(e);
                    photo = camera.snapshot();                               
                    display.setCurrent(displayPhoto);
            }).start();

  • Problem with threads hanging

    We have a problem where our application stops responding after a few days of usage. Things will for fine for a day or two, and then pretty quickly threads will start getting hung up, usually in places where they are allocating memory
    We are running WebLogic 8.1 SP2 on Sun JDK 1.4.2_04 on Solaris 8 using the alternate threading model and the -server hotspot vm. We are running pretty much the same code that we had no problems with under WebLogic 6.1 SP4 and Sun JDK 1.3.1.
    A thread dump usually shows that some or all of our execute threads are in the state "waiting for monitor entry" even though they are not currently waiting on any java locks. Here is a sample thread from the thread dump (we have ~120 threads so I don't want to post the full dump).

    String.java line 1446 for this jdk allocates a new String object, and all the other threads in this state also are creating new objects or arrays, etc.
    We've done a pstack on this process when it's in this state, and the threads that are in the "waiting for monitor entry" that look like they're allocating memory are all waiting on the same lwp_mutex_lock with some allocation method that's calling into the native TwoGenerationCollectorPolicy.mem_allocate_work (see pstack output below for the same thread as in the thread dump above)

    Has anyone ever seen anything like this? I'm trying to figure out if this is caused by something we're doing, or something relating to our environment and jvm options. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the reply - I'm testing our app with the +UseConcMarkSweepGC now in our test environment to make sure it doesn't cause any problems there.  Unfortunately the only place we've had this problem is on the production server, so it's extra difficult debugging this. 
    We're using the following memory options:
    -ms512m -mx512m -XX:NewSize=128m -XX:PermSize=192m -XX:MaxNewSize=128m -XX:MaxPermSize=192m -XX:SurvivorRatio=8and the following debugging options, as we've also been seeing OutOfMemoryErrors ( see http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=37&thread=522354&tstart=45&trange=15 )
    -verbosegc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -XX:+PrintHeapAtGCBTW, which c++filt version and options are you using? Our Solaris boxes only seem to have the GNU version installed. I was trying to run that on some of the other stack traces and wasn't getting anywhere, and didn't know if because it was GNU version wouldn't work on something compiled with the Sun compiler.
    Thanks!

  • Problem with threads and ProgressMonitor

    Dear Friends:
    I have a little problem with a thread and a ProgressMonitor. I have a long time process that runs in a thread (the thread is in an separate class). The thread has a ProgressMonitor that works fine and shows the tasks progress.
    But I need deactivate the main class(the main class is the user interface) until the thread ends.
    I use something like this:
    LongTask myTask=new LongTask();
    myTask.start();
    myTask.join();
    Now, the main class waits for the task to end, but the progress monitor don`t works fine: it shows only the dialog but not the progress bar.
    What's wrong?

    Is the dialog a modal dialog? This can block other UI updates.
    In general, you should make sure that it isn't modal, and that your workThread has a fairly low priority so that the UI can do its updating
