Modifying BLS Template for SAP 4.6c

Former Member

I'm trying to use an BLS template I downloaded off Service Marketplace called WorkOrderList. It's req'd SAP release is 4.7 but we're running 4.6c. (The template refers to a BAPI not available in 4.6c.) What is the recommended approach for modifying the template for use with 4.6c?

Upgrade SAP

Jokes apart - I don't see how one can use the template if the BAPI is absent in that particular version.

Maybe you can write a ZBAPI or try to identify a similar BAPI in the existing version and then try reusing rest of the logic (minus the JCO action) from the downloaded template.

Good ideas - especially the one about upgrading SAP. (Actually we're planning an upgrade to ECC 6.0 to be complete 2Q of next year, meaning whatever I do now in BLS will have to be redone next year. Oh well, it's good job security.)

Thanks for the tips!

David,

We had a BAPI in 6 that we needed in 4.6c.

We copied it to a ZBAPI in 6 and then did a copy to 4.6C

It worked cleanly.

When we upgrade that SAP server to 6 we only have to change the name of the ZBAPI in xMII to BAPI.
