Step1:Requirement and basic explanation Important Top^

Requirement:Update MARA custom fields using material BAPI BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.

We have some custom fields in MARA table, while creating/updating a material I need update them along with material.

To achieve this, we need to follow below steps:

1.Check for the available structure BAPI_TE_<TABLENAME>, here in this requirement BAPI_TE_MARA, and append custom fields using append structure.

2.Pass the structure and values to material BAPI, BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA.

Step2:Append structure BAPI_TE_MARA Important Top^

Go to SE11, provide name as BAPI_TE_MARA, display

Click on append structure.

A pop up will come, provide a append structure name ex: ZBAPI_MARA_EX, enter

Provide custom fields available in MARA to ZBAPI_MARA_EX.

Save and Activate.

Step3:Using extension in BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA Important Top^

Use the below code to use BAPI extension

  DATA : ls_headdata  TYPE bapimathead,
  ls_clientdata  TYPE bapi_mara,
  ls_clientdatax  TYPE bapi_marax.
  DATA materialdescriptions TYPE TABLE OF bapi_makt .
  DATA : lt_mara TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapi_te_mara WITH HEADER LINE,
  lt_marax TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapi_te_marax WITH HEADER LINE,
  lt_extensionin TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF  bapiparex WITH HEADER LINE,
  lt_extensioninx TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapiparexx WITH HEADER LINE .
  headdata-material = 'TEST_MAT001'.
  headdata-ind_sector = 'M'.
  headdata-matl_type = 'FERT'.
  headdata-basic_view = 'X'. 
  clientdata-base_uom = 'EA'.
  clientdatax-base_uom = 'X'.

  wa_mat_desc-langu = 'E'.
  wa_mat_desc-matl_desc = 'Test material description'.
  APPEND wa_mat_desc TO materialdescriptions.
**extension structure
  MOVE 'BAPI_TE_MARA' TO lt_extensionin-structure.
  MOVE headdata-material TO lt_mara-material.
  MOVE 'CUSTOM VALUE' TO lt_mara-ZCUSTOM.
  MOVE lt_mara TO lt_extensionin-valuepart1.
  APPEND lt_extensionin.
