Summary :
This SAP Note details the evolution and usage specifics of BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces) in the Sales and Distribution sector, particularly for business object BUS2032. Initially delivered in Release 3.1G, these BAPIs including BAPI_CUSTOMERORDER_CREATE were later renamed (e.g., BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDATA) to align with accurate method nomenclature by Release 4.0A. Additionally, SAP introduced new BAPIs for creating various sales documents like BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1, BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA, and extended support for sales documents customization via BAPI_SALESDOCU_CREATEFROMDATA. By Release 4.5B, users are advised to transition to RFC-enabled function modules like SD_SALESDOCUMENT_CREATE. Configuration guidance and input data requirements for utilizing these BAPIs are thoroughly outlined to ensure smooth integration and functionality enhancements across sales processes.
