How to assign notification to work order through BAPI?

Question

I would like to assign a notification to a work order. The following does not work:

* Fill method structure
  ls_methods-refnumber = 1.
  ls_methods-method = 'SAVE'.
  APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

  ls_methods-refnumber = 1.
  ls_methods-objecttype = 'OBJECTLIST'.
  ls_methods-method = 'CHANGE'.
  ls_methods-objectkey = '000480000020'.
  APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

  ls_methods-refnumber = 1.
  ls_methods-objecttype = 'HEADER'.
  ls_methods-method = 'CHANGE'.
  ls_methods-objectkey = '000480000020'.
  APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

  * Fill header structure
  ls_header-orderid = '000480000020'.
  ls_header-notif_no = '100000356980'.
  APPEND ls_header TO lt_header.

  * Fill header up structure
  ls_header_up-orderid = '000480000020'.
  ls_header_up-notif_no = '100000356980' .
  APPEND ls_header_up TO lt_header_up.

  * Fill object list structure
  ls_object_list-notif_no = '100000356980'.
  APPEND ls_object_list TO lt_object_list.

  * Fill object list up structure
  ls_object_list_up-processing_ind = 'X'.
  APPEND ls_object_list_up TO lt_object_list_up.

  CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'
        TABLES
            it_methods       = lt_methods
            it_header        = lt_header
            it_header_up     = lt_header_up
            it_objectlist    = lt_object_list
            it_objectlist_up = lt_object_list_up
            return           = lt_return .

For OBJECTLIST I would actually need something like an 'ADD' method. Any ideas are appreciated.

"Notification 100000356980 is not in the object list" and "Error during processing of BAPI methods". This is clear to me and the reason why I wrote I need something like an 'ADD' method. If I remove the change method for the objectlist completely lt_return contains "Order 480000020 saved with notification 15" and "BAPI control was ended". Msg15 is the first entry in the object list, but actually two messages are already assigned and I want to add a third one. Although there is no error msg now, the third message is still not assigned. Also no clue if I need to use the header or objectlist. — paolo

The following works for me:

ls_methods-refnumber = 1.
ls_methods-objecttype = 'OBJECTLIST'.
ls_methods-method = 'CREATE'.
ls_methods-objectkey = '000480000020'.
APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

* Fill method structure
ls_methods-refnumber = 1.
ls_methods-method = 'SAVE'.
ls_methods-objecttype = ''.
ls_methods-objectkey = '000480000020'.
APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.


* Fill object list structure
ls_object_list-notif_no = '100000356980'.
APPEND ls_object_list TO lt_object_list.

* Fill object list up structure
ls_object_list_up-processing_ind = 'X'.
APPEND ls_object_list_up TO lt_object_list_up.


CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'
TABLES
    it_methods       = lt_methods
    it_objectlist    = lt_object_list
    it_objectlist_up = lt_object_list_up
    return           = lt_return.
