Function module BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN to maintain SAP project definition, WBS, Milestone

The BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN BAPI function module allows you to replicate functionality of transaction CJ02. This is the change project transaction where you create project definitions that contain WBS elements.

You can then add milestones to each WBS element.

Anyway I struggled to find a full example of how this function module should be called so have created the below example ABAP report. This updates the project definition description, adds a new WBS element and add a milestone to a WBS. Its not everything you will need it to do but will allow you to see it working and give you a good idea how it all hangs together. Should then be able to extract everything else from the FM help documentation and will have an idea how to implement the following:

IMethodProject OBJECTTYPE = WBS-Element METHOD = Create OBJECTKEY = TRAINING REFNUMBER = 000001

--Below ABAP Report selection screen Parameters p_proj Enter a project definition. If this already exists in your SAP system it will update the description, if not it will create it filling in mandatory fields. This Replicates transactions CJ01(create) or CJ02(change) so if you are unsure of the mandatory fields create one via this CJ01. p_addwbs Check this to create a new WBS on project p_newwbs The WBS to be created on the above project. This must not already exist otherwise will return an error message saying it already exists. p_addms Check this to add a new milestone a WBS (one entered below) p_mswbs WBS element that exists on project. This is where the new milestone will be added.
