Hi,
I am using a bapi to update some of the material fields. The material table has some custom fields also. The bapi clears these fields. I dont want to change the contents of custom fields.
Any solution??

Hi R,
there are different ways for different BAPIs. So it might be the best just to say which BAPI you try to use.
In some cases the customer fields must be passed using extension parameters and transfered to internal tables in userexits.
Sometimes you have to create special extension structures, then a user exit gets obsolete.
Most BAPIs have good documentation longtext for the extension parameters. Check it!

Hi Richa,
If I am understanding you correctly, you say you are running the BAPI and it is clearing previously filled extension fields. In that case, I would suggest that you are populating the clientdatax structure with Xs for fields you do not wish to update. If you remove these X's it will leave these fields intact.
