Functionality
In Application Link Enabling forproduct catalogs, you use this method to transfer and create/change theitem data of a product catalog.
If it is necessary to use this method outside of ALE distribution,please note that after this method is called, when you call methods"BapiService.TransactionCommit" (in case of success) and"BapiService.TransactionRollback" (in case of errors) the changes areupdated to the database and discarded respectively.
All data that can be changed in product catalog maintenance (with theexception of document links and classifications) for which a separatedistribution mechanism exists can also be changed using this method.
A selection box is displayed next to each data parameter, each with thesame number of fields and field descriptions. This indicates thechange-relevant fields.
To indicate that a data record is to be deleted, the field "FUNCTION"must have value "003" in the relevant structure. Any other value isinterpreted as creation or change of data, depending on context.
If a parameter contains fields for language indicators (e.g."CatalogName": field "Langu"), currencies (e.g. "CatalogBaseData":field "Currency") or units of measure (e.g. "CatalogBaseData": field"Unit_Shares"), there is always a field of the same name with thesuffix "_ISO". This means it is possible for language indicators,currencies or units of measure to be transferred in either the SAP codeor the standardized ISO code. Internally, ISO codes are converted toSAP codes for further processing. This ISO code is only used if the SAPcode is not transferred. If ISO codes are used, there must be a uniqueassignment between the ISO codes and the SAP codes for languageindicators, currencies, and country indicators in Customizing.
If information or error messages occur during processing, they arerecorded in an application log, with reference to the triggering datarecord.
The changed objects (if transfer was successful) or the most seriouserrors (if transfer was faulty) are returned in the paramter "Return".The "Log_No" field of this parameter contains the number of theapplication log in which all (other) messages are stored.Notes
For data to be created and changed, you need authorization for theactivity "Post IDocs" for the relevant catalog for authorization object"W_PCAT_MTN".
Extension parameter "ExtensionIn" and function exit "Exit_Saplwpca_004"of SAP extension "Wpca001" are available for customer extensions.
Method "ProductCatalog.SaveHeadReplica" is available as an appropriatemethod for the basic and structure data of a product catalog. Further information Description
This structure is used to return the return code to the callingprogram.
For information on the significance of the individual fields in thestructure, see the relevant data element documentation on theindividual fields.
As a number of informative and error messages can occur duringprocessing of the layout area items of a product catalog, thesemessages are created and stored in an application log. Only a successmessage and the worst errors are then returned in the return parameter,and the information containing the number under which the messages canbe displayed in the application log is entered in the field "Log_No".
