Error during transfer of Purchase Orders via CIF

[bhuvanpaliwal]

Hello Experts,

We are facing errors while trying to transfer POs from ECC to APO. Both the below methods are throwing error or short dump:

• CCR (Send to APO) -> Gives error "Function parameter "IT_ATPFIELD_AB" is unknown."
• RIMODINI in ECC of PO Integration model. -> Short dumps in ECC : "CALL_FUNCTION_PARM_UNKNOWN"

I've searched a lot on SAP support portal and on SCN, but I'm unable to find a proper solution or SAP note which pertains to the exact error that we are getting.

Here is the extract of the short dumps (2 similar dumps):

==========================================================================

Category                         ABAP Programming Error

Runtime Errors                CALL_FUNCTION_PARM_UNKNOWN

Except.                           CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND

ABAP Program                SAPLCPUR

Application Component     SCM-BAS

Short Text

    Function parameter "IT_ATPFIELD_AB" is unknown.

What happened?

    Error in the ABAP Application Program

    The current ABAP program "SAPLCPUR" had to be terminated because it has

    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

    Function module "ME_APO_INITIALIZE_PO" was called with parameter

     "IT_ATPFIELD_AB".

    This parameter is not defined there however.

Error analysis

    An exception has occurred which is explained in more detail below. The

    exception is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_PARAM_NOT_FOUND' and was not

     caught in procedure

    "CIF_ADC_TRANSMIT_PO_BLOCK" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING

     clause.

    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated this

    exception, the current program was terminated.

    The reason for the exception is:

    Function module "ME_APO_INITIALIZE_PO" was called with parameter

     "IT_ATPFIELD_AB".

    This parameter is not defined there however.

Hello Bhuvan,

Did you recently apply any SAP OSS notes ? or upgraded your system ? For me this looks to be a case of inconsistency in the system due to missing code.

Function module ME_APO_INITIALIZE_PO has the importing parameter IT_ATPFIELD_AB that had been added as part of one of the Service Pack releases. So, for sure this is brought by a note and it is clearly missing. 

Please raise a ticket to SAP

Thanks & Best Regards,

Yes we are facing this issue in Quality system after system copy from Production.

I think I have no other choice left than raising this to SAP. Thanks!

So, the quality system has a note which wasn't there in Prod. It's a delta. You may also try to debug the FM that calls the said FM to track the SAP note responsible for this.

Cheers,

Hi Babu,

It turns out that after the system refresh, there was a transport moved which should not have been done. It was simply a case of version mismatch! Thanks for the help.
