Can MDOs mapped to ERP data source be updated?

[former_member190457]

Hi all,

In my project I am about to create MDOs based to BAPI return structures.

I would like to update such MDO records so that the new values are then writter to the ERP itself at scheduled times.

In other words I would like synchronization to be bi-directional; I am not using custom MDO attributes

How can this be done?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Vincenzo

Vincenzo,

Why not perform the BAPI/RFC to upload the data to ERP as part of the Objects lifecycle "Replace" task? You can configure the Replace Task transaction to be two part, the first being the upload of data to ERP and the second would be the synchronization of new data from ERP. I would recommend adding a column to the object definition that was ERP Upload Failed and an error message as to why.

This is up to you though.

Regards,

Sam

Vincenzo,

I also recommend taking a look at this document on MII 12.2:

It's available on the MII Wiki in the Modeling Templates and Composite Design section:
