Functionality
This BAPI creates a characteristic that does not yet exist.
Entries must be made in the following fields:

  • Charact_Name (characteristic name)

  • Data_Type (data type)

  • Length (number of characters)

  • Decimals (number of decimal places)

  • Status (status) in structure CharactDetail

  • Description (description) in structure CharactDescription

  • Either field Language_Int (internal language format, 1 character) or
    • Language_ISO (external language format, 2 characters)
    ISO format has priority. If there is more than one entry in anylanguage, the last entry is relevant.
    Values must be in the values table for the appropriate data type:numeric, time, and date values in CharactValuesNum, characterand boolean values in CharactValuesChar, and currency values inCharactValuesCurr. Value descriptions for all data types are intable CharactValuesDescr.
