Sending BOM data from SAP MII to SAP ME

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I am currently working on sending data from SAP MII to SAP ME.

I am sending these data using SAP ME PAPI Interface action block (ie by using SAP ME available API).

I have pushed Item and Operation data successfully to ME database. But I am facing issue in sending BOM Data to SAP ME.

I am mapping the mandatory fields with help of which I can create BOM manually in SAP ME BOM Maintenance screen.

Same data I am passing through PAPI Interface block. But it gives me error "bomType is missing", where as I have marked the bomType properly.

Please help me if I am missing out something.

Regards,

Minakshi

Hi Swaroop,

Thanks for your reply.

The issue was something else. It is now resolved.

The issue was the value I was passing for bomType parameter from MII.

I was trying with following values:

1. "Master": This is the possible value appearing from ME BOM Maintenance screen.

2. "U" : This is the corresponding value that is inserted in ME database. I recognized it while checking the BOM table data.

In both the scenario's it gave error "bomType is Missing".

Here the expected bomType value is "USERBOM". This is the bomType value obtained from readBOM PAPI.

How do we figure this out usually?

Why does ME PAPI not accept the other 2 valid options?

Is there any reference of such fields and there possible value list?

Regards,

Minakshi.
