A Business Add-In (BAdI) is an SAP enhancement technique that allows you to add custom code to SAP standard transactions without modifying the original application. BAdIs are a part of SAP's Enhancement Framework and provide a more flexible way of integrating custom functionality. This lesson will provide you an additional details on the BAdI available for Purchase Info Records (PIRs) in SAP.
Implementing a BAdI for PIRs involves extending the standard functionality of a delivered PIR program in the SAP system to meet customer-specific requirements related to consuming PIR data received from SAP Ariba Strategic Sourcing solutions. You can implement this BAdI to enhance the incoming PIRs as required to add custom fields to the standard extract.
You can implement the BAdI ARBCIG_PURINFREC to customize the fields in the Purchase Info Records that are created from the SAP Ariba Awards. This BAdI is called in the class CL_ARBCIG_PURCHASEINFO_IMPL.
Hint
For more about implementing a BAdI, refer to the standard SAP Documentation.
