AddNode

AddNode


Description

Insertion of a new node in a cost element group.

Insert the SubGroupName as the last subordinate node in the GroupName group. Specify the chart of accounts of the groups in the ChartOfAccounts parameter. Both groups must already exist.


If an error occurs during insertion, the error message is ouput in the Return parameter.

Notes

You need the authorization for the object K_CSKA_SET.

Creating or changing a cost element group

All groups from the table HierarchyNodes are crated in the system. The chart of accounts of thegroups is entered in the ChartOfAccountsImp parameter; any existing groups are overwritten.


Information about the nodes of a hierarchy is transferred to the table HierarchyNodes. This table contains the group names and the description for each node in the hierarchy. The hierarchy structure isportrayed via the order of the nodes in the table and the level of the node in the HIERLEVEL field.


If values or value intervals are assigned to a node, then the entry in the VALCOUNT field shows the number of assigned values or value intervals. These are transfered to the HierarchyValues table in the order in which these appear in the hierarchy.


Example

The group 'GROUP1' has the following structure:

  GROUP1
   |
   |---- GROUP11
   |  |
   |  |---- GROUP111
   |     |
   |     |---- VALUE1
   |
   |---- GROUP12

      |
      |---- VALUE2
      |---- VALUE3 - VALUE9

The HierarchyNodes table thus contains the following entries:

GROUPNAME HIERLEVEL VALCOUNT

GROUP1 0 0


GROUP11 1 0

GROUP111 2 1

GROUP12 1 2

Only the nodes GROUP111 and GROUP12 contain values or intervals, the HierarchyValues table therefore contains the following entries:

VALFROM VALTO


VALUE1 VALUE1

VALUE2 VALUE2

VALUE3 VALUE9

Groups can contain either values or other groups, i.e. only the end nodes of the hierarchy contain values.

If the optional parameter TopNodeOnly is set to 'X', only the
first node in the hierarchy table can be created or changed. In this case the table HierarchyNodes, in addition to these nodes, may only contain level 1 nodes. These nodes must already exist in thesystem, here they are merely attached to the first node. In this way,
for example, an existing large hierarchy can be extended by attaching anew sub-tree without the hierarchy having to be completely recreated.

If an error occurs when you create a group, the error message is issued in the parameter Return.


Notes

You require the authorization for object K_CSKA_SET.

Reading a cost element group

The cost element group GroupName from the chart of accounts ChartOfAccounts is read.

If an error occurs during reading, the error message is issued in the Return parameter.


Information about the nodes of a hierarchy is transferred to the table HierarchyNodes. This table contains the group names and the description for each node in the hierarchy. The hierarchy structure isportrayed via the order of the nodes in the table and the level of the node in the HIERLEVEL field.


If values or value intervals are assigned to a node, then the entry in the VALCOUNT field shows the number of assigned values or value intervals. These are transfered to the HierarchyValues table in the order in which these appear in the hierarchy.


Example

The group 'GROUP1' has the following structure:

  GROUP1
   |
   |---- GROUP11
   |  |
   |  |---- GROUP111
   |     |
   |     |---- VALUE1
   |
   |---- GROUP12

      |
      |---- VALUE2
      |---- VALUE3 - VALUE9

The HierarchyNodes table thus contains the following entries:

GROUPNAME HIERLEVEL VALCOUNT

GROUP1 0 0


GROUP11 1 0

GROUP111 2 1

GROUP12 1 2

Only the nodes GROUP111 and GROUP12 contain values or intervals, the HierarchyValues table therefore contains the following entries:

VALFROM VALTO


VALUE1 VALUE1

VALUE2 VALUE2

VALUE3 VALUE9

You require the read authorization for object K_CSKA_SET.

GetList

GetList


List of cost element groups. All the cost element groups are searched for that satisfy the selection criteria.

You can restrict the search for groups by transferring a mask for the group name in the optional parameter GroupNameMask (masking indicators are +*).


The chart of accounts of the groups is entered in the ChartOfAccountsMask parameter (maskingindicators are also possisble here).

If the optional parameterr TopNodesOnly is set to 'X', a searchis only made for groups that are the top node in a hierarchy, i.e. they are not used in other groups.


The list of groups found is transfered to the table GroupList.

If an error occurs during the search, the eror message is issued in the Return parameter.

Example

All cost element groups from the chart of accounts INT that begin with 'A' are to be displayed. Call the method:

DATA: LT_GROUPLIST LIKE BAPI1113_LIST OCCURS 0,
      L_RETURN     LIKE BAPIRET2.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_COSTELEMENTGRP_GETLIST'
     EXPORTING
          CHARTOFACCOUNTS = 'INT '
          GROUPNAME       = 'A*'

     IMPORTING
          RETURN          = L_RETURN
     TABLES
          GROUPLIST       = LT_GROUPLIST.
