ERROR while calling BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA

[former_member192892]

Hi Guys,

i'm trying to create Manufacturer part number for a material by using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.

In my return i'm getting the error as "<b>Manufacturer part number management not set for your firm's own material</b>"

I have created the material earlier using BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA itself. Should I have given some extra parameter for this material to be enabled for Manufacturer part number management ??

Kindly help me on this guys

Thanks

I guess this question can be best answered by a functional consultant rather than a XI consultant. If you are a XI developer, your job is done as expected, now it is upto the functional guys to give a soln for this.

Hi Varun !

Try this:

Check the defined length of the input parameters you are filling and pad them accordingly...for e.g. if MATERIAL has a length of 18 chars, pad the material number with "0"...material number = 1234 => "00000000000001234" (14 zeros + "1234").

From the SE37 it is not necesary, but in some cases from XI, you should pad the numbers.

Matias.
