F4311 -Purchase Order Detail Line Insert,Update

Dear all,

We need to insert a PO detail lilne to F4311.
Please Suggest the Best way which assures all validations and integration of the values.

We are reading PO Detail line from Foreign Table .

Is it Fair If I use Just a Table I/O .

If we need to Use Business Functions for that,
Pls provide a documentation on that.
We tried referring the BSFN documentation provided in the documentation Guide.
But in Vain.

Please Take Little Pain to Provide details Regarding this.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Venugopal,

The best ways which ensure validation of your entries are either (1) by calling jde's purchasing master business functions F4311BeginDoc, F4311EditLine etc, or (2) via writing to the purchasing Z files F4301Z1 and F4311Z1 and using R4311Z1I to load the records into the transaction tables F4301 and F4311.

Method 1 is likely to take longer to figure out how to use the parameters and code though provides a slick method of creating entries while 2 will provide a fairly quick method of getting your data into the system. For 1 see the Business functions section of the JDE Documentation CD as it does provide some good info on the parameters. For using the Z files take a look at the attached interoperability guide. If your going to go for method 1 take a look at P4310, the purchase order entry application, to see how JDE have used these functions.

Hope this gives you a little start.

Neil.
