I’m having a very similar error “BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE: Element b of container metadata unknown”. Did you ever find anything out.

Hello Jerry,
you want to access to a parameter with the name b of the RFM BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE which doesn’t exists. Replace your Invoke SAP BAPI activity with a new one which calls the same BAPI and let us know your results.
Which version of UiPath.SAP.BAPI.Activities do you use?
Best regards
Stefan

Hi @Rama_Krishna_Dokina

Did you ever solve this issue?
I have a similar case with another BAPI, and I can’t find how to solve it…

Hi @Garrh,

Can you please let me know error that you are facing.

Hi @Rama_Krishna_Dokina,

The error message below is the one I am getting.
“Execution stopped unexpectedly :
Message:Element Column1 of container metadata /MDS/REQUEST unknown
StackTrace: at SAP.Middleware.Connector.RfcContainerMetadata`1.NameToIndex(String elementName)”

I found out today that it is related to that the column names are not being imported to the invoke BAPI workflow.

I am using the “Register” Accelerator from the UiPath Marketplace as the main workflow, invoking the custom workflow created with my BAPI.
If I create a manuel DataTable with header + rows, I am getting it to run properly.

Just solved this, and it is a bit embarrassing…
It seems like my “InputDataSheet” had a phantom column being imported to the workflow, resulting in trying to look up “Column1” when parsing the input to the BAPI.

Deleted all columns after my last one, and I was able to run the workflow.
