What is BAPI & how it relates with PP-module

hi
SAP has introduced object-oriented technology by making SAP processes and data available in the form of SAP business objects.
External applications can access SAP business objects through standardized, platform-independent interfaces - die Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs). The SAP Business Objects and their BAPIs provide an open, object-oriented view of the business processes and data in an SAP System.
This guide provides an overview of the SAP business objects, SAP interface types, and their BAPIs as well as the Business Object Repository where business objects and BAPIs are defined and stored.

How to do with rfc module which one is changed without effect the applicat

Hi Masters,
i have developed one webdynpro java application with calling some rfc from r3 side. Now i add extra functionality in rfc . now i have to import that rfc without effecting the already developed application. How can i do. i came to know that some option is there to do this. please give reply.

Hello,
If there is change in business logic without adding any additional parameter in RFC, you can directly use the RFC without importing it. There will not be any adverse impact on existing application.
However, if there is any addtional parameter or structure change, then you have to re-import he model. It is recommended to restart the J2EE engine after model re-import to clear the metadata cache.
You may need to do context binding based on your business logic and hence some amount of change is required in existing application.
Let me know if it clears your doubt

STEP BY STEP for BAPI
http://sap-img.com/abap/bapi-step-by-step-guidance.htm
DIFFERENCE between BAPI and BDC
BDC is traditional way of coding the transactions for uploading the legacy data, Sap is changing all transactions to Object oriented programming. Since BAPI is Object based and supports all the new transactions it is preffered over BDC. More over BAPI's process data faster than BDC.
BAPI is a SAP-supplied function module with a defined interface, which allows you to interact with various business objects. SAP guarantees the integrity of your database for anything updated using a BAPI. BDC is a method of driving screens programatically, for updating SAP data. BAPIs are generally faster than BDCs.
A BAPI is faster because it is updating the DB "directly". Whereas BDC with call
transaction goes through the whole screen sequence like any user would do, simply put, fills screens.
However - there is not always a BAPI for a particular transaction and not all functions that are performed by a transaction can be done by a BAPI. BDCs produce error sessions which can be processed by the user, while BAPIs don't.
First choose the BAPI ,if there is no BAPI go for BDC.
why BAPI first not BDC.
SAP comes up with Change in Version, so each and every time they will change the screens/number etc.
so you have to change your BDC programs accordingly.
and also Most of the Latest versions transactions are Enjoy Transaction. they will not support BDC's in Background.
But Using BAPI's No such disadvantages.
A BAPI is faster because it is updating the DB "directly" through ABAP code.
A BDC with call transaction goes through the whole screen sequence like any user would do, simply put, it is filling screens.
Actually it depends on your requirement but BAPI is more effective as it is standard function module to update SAP databases rather than BDC.
using bdc over bapi has advantages and also disadvantages
advantages:
1. using bdc we can upload data into database tables using 2 ways
1. foreground -
means that user interaction is there for each and every record.
2. back ground -
no user interaction and tasks are done automatically.
using these two options is one of the greatest advantage over bapi.
2. in bdc call transaction method we can control the display of screen resolution which is not possible with bapi's
3. bdc is generally used for transferring of large amount of data than bapi's
4.session method of bdc allows us to place data directly in application server and then finally transfered into sap database tables
disadvantages:
1.bdc is only used for sap to sap system data transferring
2. bapis's generally works more faster than bdc's
3. using bapis we can connect to remote systems and also to non sap systems.
if useful reward some points.
A BAPI is a method of a SAP Business Object. BAPI enables SAP and third party applications to interact and integrate
with each other at the Business Object / Process level.

Batch Data Communication (BDC) is the oldest batch interfacing technique that SAP provided since the early versions of R/3. BDC is not a
typical integration tool, in the sense that, it can be only be used for uploading data into R/3 and so it is not bi-directional.
BDC works on the principle of simulating user input for transactional screen, via an ABAP program. Typically the input comes in the form
of a flat file. The ABAP program reads this file and formats the input data screen by screen into an internal table (BDCDATA). The
transaction is then started using this internal table as the input and executed in the background.
In Call Transaction, the transactions are triggered at the time of processing itself and so the ABAP program must do the error handling.
It can also be used for real-time interfaces and custom error handling & logging features. .
To know more about BDC,
check the link.
http://sappoint.com/abap/
Main differences are...
In case of bdc data transfer takes place from flat file into sap system ie the file existing in sap system to sap sytem
where is bapi's r remotly enabled function modules which are assigned to some business objects n used to transfer the data between different business partners who are using different systems other than sap.
not only that...
when you plan to upgrade your system version then bdc willnot support those upgradations where as bapi's will support.

Hi guru's what is bapi

hi guru's what is bapi how we use bapi

HI,
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.

What method, BAPI, etc. is used to launch a standard SAP transaction?

Hello friends,
Is there a simple way of finding out what method, BAPI, FM, etc. is used to launch a standard SAP transaction?
I was told that instead of CALL TRANSACTION using BDCDATA stuff, I can use the method or BAPI or FM, or whatever to get the same results. The problem is I don't know how to find out this information.
Apparently using BDCDATA for a CALL TRANSACTION form within an ABAP program can be hazardous because of SAP's upgrades, new releases etc... If one of the screens is modified during the next release, then the BDCDATA will no longer work. So I need to launch a transaction from within my ABAP without having to worry about future changes implemented by SAP.
Any ideas?
Your help is greatly appreciated,

Hi,
It depends on which transaction you are looking for. Usually it comes by experience. You can search in SE37 or transaction BAPI to find out relevant BAPI suitable for you. All BAPI FMs starts with name BAPI.
eg: If you want to findout the BAPI for VA01 transaction, try like this.
SE37=> enter BAPIsalescreate* and click F4.
You can see below list of FMs.
BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEFROMDATA
BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1
BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDATA
BAPI_SALES_DEL_SCHEDULE_CREATE
BAPI_SALESORDER_PROXY_CREATE
BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEFROMDATA1
BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEWITHDIA
By looking at the name we can identify upto 60%. Just go through the FM documentation and see if it works for u and how to use it.
SCN is always there to help us out. But before posting to ask for a BAPI, please search and give a try to findout:)
Thanks,
Vinod.

How to relate IDOC generated in sap through ALE from legacy system

Hi all,
can any one tell me how can relate an idoc generated in SAP with the new idoc generated in a legacy system. I mean how could I identify, which idoc is generated for a particular idoc in legacy system and vice versa.
Thanks,
Nilanjana

Thanks Suhas but when i am getting error message related to partnr profile when pressing this 'TRACE IDOC' button even with idoc in status 53.

What are BAPI's

Dear All,
Could you tell me what are BAPI? and how are they related to RFC? How do BAPI's work?
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
Short Intro:
BAPI wil work as a function module only just tht its an RFC can be called by external systems.
BAPIs are created as methods of business objects.if u goto SWO1 transaction and give a BO say BUS2038 you will see some methods in them.They are all BAPIs.
If you goto transaction BAPI,you can find all the methods created by SAP and impelmented as Function modules and they are all RFCs.But an RFC is not necessarily a BAPI.It can be a normal function module in SAP whose attribute has been set to RFC,which means u r making it available to be called by external systems
like our wrapper BAPIs,are simple RFCs and not BAPIs
This can provide you all information around BAPI's

How to deal with file(for example .xml)? what format of dir should be?

I'd like to operate the file in disk, and want to use relative directory?
How to deal with file dir? what format of dir should be?

Hi Kamlesh,
Thanks for your response.
Actually, In the "Process External Bank Statement" window, i see that there are few entries which is for the previous year and which has not been reconciled. I have never worked practically on BRS and hence, i am scared to make any changes in the clients database without being confident on what i am doing. I need to reconcile for one of their Bank a/c for the month of April '08. I have the copy of the statements for the month ending 31st Mar 08 and 30th Apr 08. The closing balances are as below:
31/03/08 - 2300000.00
30/04/08 - 3100000.00
Now my OB for Bank a/c for April '08 in SAP is 2300000.00 Dr.
When i go to External Bank Reconciliation - Selection Criteria Screen (Manual Reconciliation), here are the detail that i enter:
Last Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000 (Grayed out by the system)
Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000 (Entered by me)
End Date: 30/04/08 (Entered by me)
"Reconciliation Bank Statement" Screen opens up and shows the below balances in the screen:
Cleared Book Balance: INR -7,000,000.00000
Statement Ending Balance: INR -3,100,000.00000
Difference: INR 3,800,000.00000
As per the Bank statement, i have found all the transactions listed out here for the month of Apr '08 but, i also found that the open transactions for the previous month from April '08 have been lying in "Process External Bank Statement" window.
Could you please help me solve my issue as to what needs to be done or could you also get me some links from where i can get few documents for processing External Bank Reconciliations?
That will be of a great help for me. I need steps as to what needs to be done first and then the next so that i can arrive at the correct closing balance for the month April '08.
Thanks in Advance....

Account Segmentation: How to relate OACT.Segment_* to OASC (OASG)?

Hello,
I'm learning SAP B1 and i'm trying to understand segmented account code information.
I understand that a segmented account code looks like: 12100000-01-001-01
where
12100000 is the natural account
01 is a division
001 is a region
and the last 01 is a department.
I assume that the account code above is the concatenation of OACT.Segment_* fields separated with dashes (-).
Is there a relationship between OACT.Segment_* and OASC (account Segmentation categories) or OASG (Account Segmentation)?
How can I tell that 01 is a division code and it's not a department code?
It's seems like the key field for OASC is the combination of SegmentId (OASG) and Code. If OACT.Segment_* are mapped to OASG.Code then where can I get SegmentId which is the other key for OASC?
Thank you very much,
Jules

Hello Gordon,
Thanks for responding and also for showing me FORMATCODE field.
I'm sorry I'm not sure if I understand what you mean by: "Segment accounts are starting with _SYS by unique id".
What would a FORMATCODE for a segmented account code like 12100000-01-0001-01 look like? Please show an example using _SYS and a unique id that you mentioned.
I'm sorry my sample database does not have any segment data. I'm trying to understand how to relate segment informtation, but I do not know how I can go from, possibly, FORMATCODE to OASC or OASG.
Thanks for your help.
Jules

Hi Nag,
BAPI : BAPI basically works like a function module. the major difference being that it can work like a RFC. That means it can work from system to system. Mostly the name of a BAPI can be seen in se37 by just giving BAPI_* F4 and you will see a lot of BAPIS

BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE
we have a scenario where our client uses a third party software for the plant. The orders generated there all get converted into an XML file. The XML file is read by a BAPI, to create sales order in SAP. This BAPI runs as a batch job at a scheduled time the orders get created.
Incase of any order failing in SAP, we check the XML going to the BAPI and find the reason and make the necessary corrections.
