Y do v need the vbap-mandt,vbap-posnr,vbap-matwa, i.e. What data do they store?

Hi Mathew,

The following fields are used to store data like

vbap-mandt - Client which you are using. In SAP landscape, for every server i.e., development, quality and production we use some clients like 001, 100, 200 like that. This field store the client which you are working in

vbap-posnr - This field will store the Item number in the sales document. i.e., while creating a sales order you can enter different materials, there you can find a line item number like 10, 20, 30 etc. so this field will store that data.

vbap-matwa- This field will store the material entered in the sales document.

Hope this is clear.

Reward if helpful.

Thanks,

Hi Mathew,

The way VBAK stores header details we need a Table to store Item details like Material quantity etc. For this the table VBAP is used (all tables starting from V are SD tables).

Whenever you have problem understanding any of the fields do goto

SE16 enter the table name VBAP here.

You will see all the fields the fields you are talking about VBAP-MANDT indicates it is a field from VBAP table.

So once you are into the table just goto Settings at top

Settings->User Parameters->

choose Field Name.

It will display the technical names (The ones you are looking for) then you can match which field is what.

For example posnr is item.

Hope it helps

Vbap-posnr refers to 'sales document item', means the requested item name?

Vbap-matwa refers to 'material entered', i m not getting its meaning.

Hi

This VBAK table stores the data from Sales Document header.

VBAP stores data from Sales document Item

VBEP stores data from Schedule lines

Thanks,
