BAPI/FM for regeneration of Change Pointers

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am trying to find the BAPI/FM to retrigger the Change Pointers for a given PR.

We use batch jobs (/SAPAPO/C5) to process the change pointers which are created during the CTM run. These change pointers are used to create the PRs in R/3.

We have a process where we delete these change pointers and but then we require the same later to send the PRs to R/3.

Pls suggest a BAPI/FM or a program which can be called to re-trigger change pointers. We have a way to preserve the CPs but that is not a elegant and full proof way.

Thanks

Sachin

If you delete the CPs, you can still send PRs to R/3 using CCR function. You can check with the developer on the FMs called behind the scenes.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by re-trigger CPs ? CPs can only be created at the time of order creation in APO.

The FMs that can be used in lieu of C5 (C5 calls them behind the scenes) are:

/SAPAPO/DM_CP_PROCESS

/SAPAPO/CIF_GEN_INITIAL_LOAD

/SAPAPO/DM_CP_PROCESSID_SET

/SAPAPO/DM_CP_DEL etc

You can do a search on /sapapo/dm_cp* in se37.
