Features

Interface

To transfer competitor price data to the Oil & Gas System, you use:

  • IDoc OILBLP_SAVECOMPETITORSURVEY01

  • Message type OILBLP_SAVECOMPETITORSURVEY

IDocs of message type OILBLP_SAVECOMPETITORSURVEY contain the segment E1BPBULOCP04. Price survey data is stored in this segment.

Processing in the Oil & Gas System after Receipt of Competitor Survey Information

The incoming IDoc OILBLP_SAVECOMPETITORSURVEY01 calls the function module BAPI_BLP_SAVECOMPETITORSURVEY. This function carries out the following actions :

  • For all ISO-encoded fields the corresponding SAP codes (for example, for units of measure) are determined, if SAP codes are not specified directly.

  • A business add-in is called. This can be used for value conversions in the Oil & Gas System.

  • The database change is carried out within one LUW (logical unit of work). This means that an IDoc is only processed if all lines are processed successfully.

  • If all processing has been successfully carried out and the corresponding documents have been posted, the status of the IDoc is set to 53
