Create BAPI

BAPI's are useful for exchanging data between SAP systems. Custom BAPIs can be easily created by following steps: 1) Create import and export data structures 2) Develop a function module with the import/export parameters and logic to retrieve data 3) Add the FM to the business object repository (BOR) to generate and release the BAPI template 4) Test the custom BAPI like other BAPIs

Create a custom BAPI easily

BAPI's are very useful in SAP to perform some business function as well as to exchange data /
interact between different SAP systems or Non SAP systems as well. Though SAP provides a
whole bunch of ready to use BAPI's, one can create there own BAPI(s) easily if required.

Steps involved in creating a custom BAPI:


1 ) Create a BAPI import structure
Example : I am creating a BAPI import structure ZABPI_ADIIMPORT having MATNR
component.

2 ) Create a BAPI return table structure:


I am creating a structure with matnr and werks , this will be output table of my BAPI.

3) Go to SE37 and create a custom BAPI FM(Function Module). ZBAPI_GET_WERKS is the


bapi name. All custom BAPI FMs should begin with ZBAPI*
Make the FM remote enabled by selecting Remote Enabled Module. All BAPI FMs are RFC
enabled.

Now add the bapi import structure we created in import tab. Always remember to tick Pass by
value since BAPI FM which is a RFC enabled FM cannot use pass by reference.

In the export tab we will put BAPI return parameters. BAPIRETURN is a standard BAPI return
structure. In the source code of the program we need to make use of this parameter to show
success or failure status along with messages.

In the tables we will use our BAPI export table structure we created. We always use LIKE for
tables.

4) Source code:
Add the logic of the FM here.
FUNCTION ZBAPI_GET_WERKS.
*"---------------------------------------------------------------------*"*"Local Interface:
*" IMPORTING
*"
VALUE(MATNR) TYPE ZBAPI_ADIIMPORT-MATNR
*" EXPORTING
*"
VALUE(RETURN) TYPE BAPIRETURN
*" TABLES
*"
ZTABLE STRUCTURE ZBAPI_ADIEXPORT
*"---------------------------------------------------------------------select matnr werks from marc
into TABLE ztable
where matnr eq matnr.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
"Update BAPI return table accordingly to show success here
else.
"Update BAPI return table accordingly to show failure here
ENDIF.
ENDFUNCTION.

Logic of our BAPI is simple; it fetches matnr and werks value from marc table based on input
matnr values and fills the BAPI table. Lets test the FM, click execute and input a test data

ZTABLE will be filled with values from marc table corresponding to input matnr value

5 ) Place this Function Module in to BOR(Business object repository) using the T-code SWO1.
Provide the name of the object and press create button.

Add our Custom BAPI FM using Utilities = > API Method = >Add Method

Press next to see the parameters involved

Press next and it will ask you that method has not been implemented, and will ask for
confirmation to generate a template. Press Yes

Go back and change the BOR status to Implemented.

Next generate the BOR by clicking

After generation of BOR , release the BOR.

We can test the BOR by clicking execute

Test is similar to FM test and we can see the result

Thats it :) . Our custom BAPI is now created.


Now you can use this BAPI like other BAPI.To learn how to use BAPI in reports , refer
