 At times, business users do purchase orders for the purchase requisitions created through sales orders. Again, after few days business users will try to use the same purchase requisitions to create new purchase orders.  In this situation, SAP throws the error message Error '06249' even though it is maintained as a warning message in system messages.

Characteristics values for an object cannot be extracted from the database table directly. Hence we are required to follow the below steps to fetch the data : First, pass the material into table KSSK and fetch object number Pass the object number into the KLAH table to fetch the class Pass the class into a functional module: 'CLAF_CLASSIFICATION_OF_OBJECTS' to fetch the characteristics and characteristics values.

 At times, We find difficult to identify exits for a program.  This post will explain you an easy way to find list of  Customer Exits and BADI's available for a program. Below are the process steps to be followed : Step 1 : Goto T.Code : SE16N, Enter transaction code  Step 2 : Fetch program name Step 3 : Collect Program Name and pass it to TADIR table to fetch development class Step 4 : Pass Development class again into TADIR table by passing OBJECT as SMOD to fetch all customer exit's and OBJECT as SXSD to fetch BADI's related to the program. In this case, I have passed SMOD to fetch customer exits. Step 5 : All Customer exits related to the program are displayed Step 6 : Once EXIT is identified. To get description related to it, Pass Exits into table MODSAPT and SXS_ATTRT to get descriptions corresponding to them. Thank you.

This post explains how database update can be performed through transaction codes SE16N and SE16. At times, there might be a situation in the test environment where we are required to perform database updates in order to manipulate or try to replicate a case in a lower environment. Database contents in SAP can be viewed through transaction codes SE16N or SE16. This post explains how the database update can be performed for both transaction codes through debug mode. Case 1: Transaction Code SE16 In this case, I have taken a sample example to update the VBAK table entry through debug mode. Enter Sales Order Number Select the entry displayed enter '/H' in the command bar and click on ok or enter button. Then click on entering again after debugging activation to enter into debugging screen Click on the 'Code' then display as 'SHOW' on the right side of the screen. Then we will change it to 'EDIT' as we are trying to change th...

There is a common requirement from functional consultants on how to do debugging. Below is the raw info on the debugging and different ways of doing it. Debugging is a common tool used by the technical team to analyze dumps during transactional processing and program behavior. Through debugging we will come to know the run values of the program as well. Debugging can be performed in two different ways : 1. Debugging by watchpoint 2. Debugging by Breakpoint Debugging based on watchpoint At times, we are unsure about how the value is getting determined for a variable then we can put the watchpoint on the variable deriving the value so that the system will stop at all points where the value is being fetched for the variable. Debugging based on Breakpoint Debugging based on break point will be done only when the consultant is aware of the exact piece of code where a breakpoint can be enabled. The breakpoint can be done in two ways. Internal breakpoint E...

IDocs is an abbreviated form of Intermediate Documents. Data from SAP will send in the form of IDoc between SAP ----> SAP or SAP ----> Non SAP. Type of data exchanged between systems Master Data  Transactional data Master Data Master Data can be manually / Automatically pushed. The manual push of master data can be done by respective transaction codes and we can schedule the batch job for an auto push of master data. Sample T.Codes Send Material Master Data ---> BD10 Send Customers Master Data ---> BD12 Send Vendor Master Data ----> BD14 Send Cost Center Data  ---> BD16 Transactional Data Transaction data such as Sales Order, Delivery, Purchase Orders etc will be sent through Output Setup where IDocs will be triggered based on the Output with Medium '6'. The output type is linked with Message type in the partner profile. To enable an exchange of change data between system then we are required to create a ne...

Commonly, Business contains conditions which should be applied to entire document i.e., header conditions.In general, maintaining the header condition in the sales or purchasing document leads to duplicating the condition value or amount to all line items instead of splitting the condition value amount the line items. Below is the case without Group Condition Business Process : In order to fix this issue, SAP has provided Group Condition Functionality which splits the header value among the line items instead of duplicating the header condition value. Below screenshots depict the Group Condition Functionality : Process Flow Thank you

At times, business requires to mass block PO's and release whenever required. For this to accomplish, We cannnot be done through Mass Transaction as system will consider as 'L' even though we pass Value 'S' in LOEKZ field. For this to accomplish we are required to perform LSMW - Batch input method where recording need to be performed to ME22. Below is the sample LSMW export file for reference. [Recording        ] : ME22 [Recording Text   ] : po change /SAPDMC/LSGBDC                ZTEST_IMP      ME22           0001                                        0000TME22                                                          ...
