hi,
You need to call the BAPI - BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
Here is a simple example...
import com.sap.mw.jco.*;
public class Bapi1 extends Object{
  JCO.Client mConnection;
  JCO.Repository mRepository;
  public Bapi1(){
    try{
       mConnection = JCO.createClient(client,userid,password,
lang,host,system no );
       mConnection.connect();
       mRepository = new JCO.Repository("MyRepos", mConnection);
    }catch(Exception ex){
       ex.printStackTrace();
       System.exit(1);
    JCO.Function function = null;
    JCO.Table codes = null;
    try{
      function = this.createFunction("BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2");
      if (function == null){
        System.out.println("BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2" + "not found in SAP");
        System.exit(1);
//here you need to pass the paramters also.........
//pass all the parameters needed for the creation of the sales order in JCO.Structure.
      mConnection.execute(function);
      JCO.Structure returnStructure = function.getExportParameterList().getStructure("RETURN");
      if (!(returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("")||
            returnStructure.getString("TYPE").equals("S"))){
        System.out.println(returnStructure.getString("MESSAGE"));
        System.exit(1);
    }catch(Exception ex){
      ex.printStackTrace();
      System.exit(1);
    mConnection.disconnect();
  public JCO.Function createFunction(String name) throws Exception{
    try{
      IFunctionTemplate ft = mRepository.getFunctionTemplate(name.toUpperCase());
      if (ft == null)
        return null;
        return ft.getFunction();
    }catch(Exception ex){
      throw new Exception("Probelm retrieving JCO.Fucntion object");
  public static void main(String agrs[]){
      Bapi1 app = new Bapi1();
Hope you will find it useful
