With the
BAPI GetStatus() you can retrieve information about the status of a
particular object instance.
The BAPI GetStatus() is an instance method.
You should keep the following points in mind when defining the import parameters:
● The import parameters in the function module of the GetStatus() BAPI must contain the key fields of the corresponding business object type. The names of these parameters must be identical to the names of the object keys in the BOR and must have the same data elements.
For the associated method definition in the BOR, the key fields must not also be specified as parameters. For this reason, the BOR/BAPI Wizard does not include the function module parameters for the key fields in the method definition, when it creates a BAPI.
●
If customers
are to be enabled to enhance the import parameters of the BAPI without
modifications being necessary, you must create the parameter
ExtensionIn.
For information about extension parameters and recommendations on how the
customer enhancement concept should be implemented in a GetStatus()
BAPI, see
Customer Enhancements
and Modification to BAPIs.
You should keep the following points in mind when defining the export parameters:
● The export parameters of the BAPI contain information about the status of an object instance.
●
If customers
are to be allowed to extend the export parameters of the BAPI without
modifications being necessary, you must create the parameter
ExtensionOut.
For information about extension parameters and recommendations on how the
customer enhancement concept should be implemented in a GetStatus()
BAPI, see

and Modification to BAPIs.
.
● To report messages from the method call back to the calling program, you should create the export parameter Return . It is of particular importance when errors occur that messages describing the errors in detail are returned. You should, therefore, use all of the fields of the structure BAPIRET2. You should, in particular, fill the fields Parameter, Row, and Field.
