LSMW using IDocs/BAPIS

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am new to LSMW and want a simple tutorial for using LSMW using Idocs and BAPIs. I have found many useful tutorials for Direct Input and Batch Recording. If anyone can give me link or a tutorial for using lsmw with idocs and bapis it will be of great help.

Thanks in advance.

Step-by-Step Guide for using BAPI in LSMW

Note! The screen prints in this article are from ECC 5.0. They may differ slightly in other versions.

Introduction:

This document details the usage of BAPI in LSMW. We have used the example of migration of the purchase order data into SAP.

Step-by-Step Procedure:

Details of the BAPI used in this scenario:

Business Object: BUS2012

Method: CreateFromData

Details of Message Type and Basic IDoc Type:

Message Type: PORDCR

Basic IDoc Type: PORDCR02

Let’s have a look at the BAPI first, before proceeding to the LSMW:

1. Go to Transaction BAPI

2. Click on Search Button

3. Enter the value “BUS2012” and select “Obj.type(Technical Object Name”

4. Press ENTER

5. Following screen appears:

6. On the left side of the screen, Expand the “PurchaseOrder”.
