Purpose

SRM calls the BAPI - BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE for creating Purchase Requisition from Shopping Cart in classic scenario. CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_470 is the adapter class used to make this BAPI call. You want to use BAPI_PR_CREATE for the PR creation since BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE has been made obsolete and is replaced by BAPI_PR_CREATE  as per note 1803189.


New adapter CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_600 has been designed to call BAPI_PR_CREATE in the shopping cart transfer process which creates a purchase requisition in the backend.


Implementation


The new Adapter class - CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_600 replaces the old adapter class CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_470.

On making the necessary customizing, the SC (shopping cart) to PR (purchase requisition) creation in classic scenario will call BAPI_PR_CREATE instead for BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE. Note that if the below mentioned customizing are not made, SC to PR transfer process will continue to use the old BAPI - BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE.


Manual Customizing

Step One – Find out the relevant SYS_TYPE of the ERP system in which the Requisition will be created :

  • Execute SE16 transaction
  • Enter the table name as BBP_BACKEND_DEST
  • Enter the relevant ERP Log_sys name and execute (Note that the ECC system should be on ECC 600 or above)
  • Make note of the SYS_TYPE.


Step Two - Replace the old Adapter class with the new adapter class in the table BBP_FUNCTION_MAP

  • Execute transaction SE16
  • Enter the table name as BBP_FUNCTION_MAP
  • Enter the OBJECT as BUS2105 (Purchase Requisition in ECC)
  • Enter the TYPE as the SYS_TYPE as fetched in the step 1 and Execute

  You will find an entry with the Function - CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_470.



  • Replace this entry with CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_600
  • Save the entry


Customer Enhancements and BADI Calls :

The BADI - BBP_CREATE_BE_RQ_NEW which is called via the old adapter class CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_470 (invoking BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE), continues to be called even for the new adapter class CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_600.

If any new customer fields were added to any structures in BBPS_BADI_RQ_CREATE and in corresponding structures of BAPI_REQUISITION_CREATE then

  • Make sure to add these fields to the corresponding structures in BBP_BS_BE_PR_600
  • Add the new fields to the corresponding structures in the BAPI_PR_CREATE
  • Write a Post Exit to map the structures from AS_RQ (of type BBPS_BADI_RQ_CREATE) to AS_RQ_OUT (of type BBP_BS_BE_PR_600). This has to be written at the end of the method - CL_BBP_BS_ADAPTER_RQ_CRT_600 -> MAP_TO_PR_BAPI.
  • Please note that SAP is not responsible for any issues arising in the Customer enhancements and BADI implementations
