.NET Connector BAPIs and CommitWork and Wait

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am experiencing timing issues calling Bapi_Salesorder_Change immediately after executing Bapi_Salesorder_Createfromdat1 in a .NET Connector v2.0 environment.

Bapi_Salesorder_Change returns an error that the sales order does not exist (yet) and therefore fails updating the data. I suspect transaction commit has not yet completed in the SAP system of the Bapi_Salesorder_Createfromdat1 call since this error only occurrs sporadically (s. )

Since there is no support for CommitAndWait in .NET Connector v2.0 (s. ) I wonder what the best implementation strategy is in this case ?!

Is there a possibility to use a "SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL" approach from the .NET Connector ?

Thanks for any hints,

Andreas Koschinsky

Hi Andreas:

We had this issue before. We implement a RFC wrapper on top of this BAPI with SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL.

Hope that help.

Hi Dennis,

thanks for your answer - problem is introducing a new RFC function to a sap system involves a whole change request process requiring test & evaluation series etc. etc. So we always try to avoid that

I did some test implementations using "Bapi_Transaction_Commit" (though it sould not be used according to SAP - : Mr. Reiner Hille-Doering "because it can - wrongly used - cause deadlocks that bring your SAP system in an unusable state" - but he did not explain what "wrongly used" means...)

(1) DOES not work consistently, because Createfromdat1 Transaction might not be completed when Change is called

Bapi_Salesorder_Createfromdat1(..), Parameter WithOutCommit = " "

Bapi_Salesorder_Change()

Bapi_Salesorder_Change.CommitWork

(2) DOES work consistenly in test environment

Bapi_Salesorder_Createfromdat1(...), Parameter WithOutCommit = "X"

Bapi_Transaction_Commit("X", ...)

Bapi_Salesorder_Change()

Bapi_Salesorder_Change.CommitWork

Thanks for any further input on making this "SAP supported"

Greetings,

Andreas
