Overview
BUSINESS OBJECT(BO) :
It is an object which is similar to class, which is group of

attributes methods, interfaces, key fields, events for a
particular Business Application or Scenario.
SW01 is the TCODE for Business Object Repository
Examples for Business objects are,
BUS1001 Materials
BUS2012 Purchase Order

Overview
BUS1001
Methods are :
BAPI_Material _Get detail
BAPI_Material_GETLIST
BUS2012
Methods are :
BAPI_PO_GETDETAIL
BAPI_PO_GETITEMS

Overview
What is BAPI?

Overview
BAPI:
It is also an Remote Enable function module which is

used to communicate between SAP-SAP or SAP-
NONSAP servers.
Basically BAPI uses RFC Technology
In the Initial stage it is a RFC Function module
Later, this RFC Function module will be inserted into a

business object, Now it is converted into BAPI.

Overview

Overview
Differences between RFC & BAPI

Overview
Both are used to communicate between SAP-SAP &

NONSAP-SAP.
Both are remote enabled FM
The difference is,
RFCs are called as Standalone Function Modules.
BAPIs are part of Business Objects which are used to

communicate with other BAPIs, events, Interfaces,
attributes, Key fields etc., with in a single B.O.
This is not possible with RFCs. Because they are

standalone FMS

Overview
USAGE OF BAPIS

Overview
BAPIS are used in 3 scenarios.
1)Report generation using BAPIS
2)Using standard or custom BAPI to communicate

between SAP & NONSAP
3)Using BAPIs for uploading data into SAP instead of

BDC.

Overview
RULES FOR BAPIS

Overview
RULES FOR BAPIS:
Every BAPI should start with BAPI or ZBAPI.
All the Importing and Exporting parameters should be of

Type structures, not the direct Data Types.
All the structures must start with BAPI or ZBAPI.
All the Parameters must be pass by Value because

BAPIS doesnt support pass by reference.
Every BAPI should have a returning Parameter by Name

RETURN or BAPIRET2, to display success or error
messages.

Overview
If BAPI is Success, we have to use another BAPI

BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT to Save the Data into
Database Tables.
If the BAPI has error, use another BAPI

BAPI_TRANSACTION_ROLLBACK to revert back the
changes made to the Database Tables.

Overview
Report generation using BAPIS

Overview
Reports:
Develop a Report which displays Material Details
ZBAPI_MAT_REPORT.txt
Develop a Report which displays list of the Materials for

a given Range.
ZBAPI_MATNRSELECTION.txt
Develop a report which displays PO Details
Develop a report which displays list of items for a PO .

Overview
Developing Custom BAPI

Overview
Develop a Custom BAPI to display the Material details

which can be used by NON-SAP.
Step 1: Create structures for Importing and Exporting

Parameters.
Step2: Create a function module and make it as remote

enabled.
Step3 : Create a BO.
Step4 : Embed or insert RFC into BO so that it will be

converted into BAPI.

Overview
Step 1: Create structures for Importing and Exporting

Parameters.
Go to SE11
Create a structure by Name ZBAPI_MATNR
Create a single field MATNR.

Overview
Again Go to SE11
Create another structure by name ZBAPI_MARA
Create the fields MATNR, MTART, MBRSH, MEINS

Overview
Step2: Create a function module ZBAPI_MAT_GET_DET

and make it as remote enabled
Goto SE37
Create a function module ZBAPI_MAT_GET_DET
Specify importing parameter as below with pass by

value.

Overview
Specify Exporting parameter as below with pass by

value.
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
Specify returning parameter as below:

Overview
Write the below source code:
FUNCTION ZBAPI_MAT_GET_DET.
select SINGLE * from mara

into CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF mara
WHERE matnr = matnr .
ENDFUNCTION.
Save it.
Make the FM as REMOTE ENABLED .
Save, Activate and test it .

Overview
Step3 : Create a BO
Go to SWO1Give the BO name as ZYBUS1001
Click on CreateSpecify the details as below :

Overview
Put the cursor on methods
Click on Utilities API-METHODS ADD METHOD
Give the Function Module name as

ZBAPI_MAT_GET_DET

Overview
Press enter
Click on NEXT STEP button

Overview
Again click on NEXT STEP button
A pop-up is displayed with below message

Overview
Click on Yes
Now our RFC is converted into BAPI
Click on SAVE Click on BACK

Overview
Goto Object Type Change Release Status

Implemented

Overview
Again Go to Object Type Change Release Status

Released

Overview
Now our Business Object is released and it can be

visible/used by NON-SAP System
Mapping from NON-SAP fields to BAPI fields will be

done by NON-SAP Consultants.
The Remote connection between SAP and NON-SAP

Servers will be done by BASIS Consultants
As an ABAP Consultant, our role is to develop a BAPI

and give it to NON-SAP Consultants

Overview
BAPIS For uploading Data

Overview
Business Requirement:
Develop a program for uploading material
master data.
