Change of Customer Account Group

Hai Friends
I want to change my customer from ship-to party account group to sold to Party account group.
Please help in solving this issue.
Regards
Srinivasa Rao

hello, friend.
definitely you can use XD07 to change customer account group, as the others have said. but if you encounter some problems, most likely you have to check if the field statuses (mandatory, optional, suppress) are configured the same for the old and target account groups.
also, the SAP system default allows you to change account group from ship-to to sold-to, but not the other way around especially if you already have transactions for a customer as sold-to.

Change customer Account Group

Hi Experts,
We have two different account groups with different number Ranges. When i try to change the customer account group from one to other through XD07 system given the following warning message.
Customer 600021 not in External Sold-to-Party
- number range 0000100001-0000199999
Message number F2691
We have tried to change this warning message in to Error message through OBMSG and OBA5
after that also system showing warning message.
Where we do mistake? is there any other process to do the changing message?

Hi,
If You are trying to change the account group of a customer whose partner function is Sold-to-party.
Changes to the account group and the relevent partner functions only made from lower level to higher level.
Example:
Sold-to-party cannot be assigned the function of a payer(Higher level to lower level) because you are trying to change the higher level partner function.
Your can assign sold-to-party function to a payer (Lower level to higher level) because you are trying to change lower level partner function.

Reg : Customer Account Group Change

Hi Dear All,
Can any one Tell me that what effect will be there if i change the Customer account group from 0001-sol to party to EXPO-acc gr for Export customer.
As the customer is old and by mistake it has been created in 0001 instead EXPO acc group.
i need to know that what will be the effect on all sales data and accounting documents created already for that customer .
This i have to do for around 1500 records
pl suggest me the probable effects for the same.
ok thanks

Hi sunil,
You can change Account Group of a customer at any time. Its not going to effect the previous records.
But once after changing the Account group, what ever you customers you create will follow the new account group procedure.
But the thing is, if you want to process the old account group customers, must check that the corresponding fields are active / already in use or not. For example if you dont maintained one field in old account group customers and now with new account group if you want to process with that field, then you have to go the change mode and maintaine those field for all those customers which are not maintained earlier.
Like this if you can check the change in the Fields from old account group and new account group, then there wont be any problem.
Hope this gives you some idea.
REWARD IF HELPFUL.

Change contents of T077X (Customer Account Group Names)

Hi,
I have copied an existing account group to create a new account group. When i go to the table T077X, it is showing valid description in EN language. In other languages, the table shows the old account group description. May i know how to change the content of this table?
Thanks
Venkat

Hi SAP User,
You have to translate the descriptions. However, the translation process is different for customer account groups than for other configuration objects (I never understood why BTW). You can maintain the translations directly in SE16, table T077X, menu 'Table Entry' / 'Change' (F6).

Effects of changing Customer Account Group

Hi everyone!
What can be the effects of changing the account group of a customer code?
The customer code that will be changed already have some transactions but we need to change the account group.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Ricardo
Firstly changes in the account group and all partner functions can be made from lower group to higher group e.g. Sold to Party cant be given a payer role as this role is an existing role for Sold to Party
However you can assign the Sold to party to a Payer ..hope this is clear so u can change only Ship to , Bill to & Payer
The only implication which i see is if the customer is created for more than one Company code/Sales Area its better to block the customer until the customer is maintained for all company codes.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Change from Internal to External Number range for customer account group

Hi,
We would like to change the number range assignment for a customer account group from internal to external. The external number range assignment check box is greyed out as a few numbers in the range have already been used up. We want to do the internal to external assignemnt change, create a customer of a specific number, and revert the range back to internal assignment. Is this possible?
Appreciate your help.
Ram

Hi,
Please do the below steps:-
(1) Go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain status" button. Note down the current status and change the status to zero. Save.
(2) Again go to SDN1 and click on "Maintain No. Range" button, and change the no. range to external. Save. (if that number range is maintained for multiple years, then make it external for the first yer and for the subsequent years, it will become automatically.)
(3) Then create your customer with specific number.
(4) Then go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain No. Range" button, and change the no. range to internal. Save. (if that number range is maintained for multiple years, then make it internal for the first yer and for the subsequent years, it will become automatically.)
(5) Again go to XDN1 and click on "Maintain status" button. Maintain the current status as the number noted down in step (1) above. Save. (In case number created in step (4) is greater than the number notes in step (1), maintain the number of step (4) in current status.)

how can I modify the customer account group?
pls help me out.

hi
A D120 Control 037 County Code, City Code
these fields are not there in the account group for which u r trying to change
So goto OBD2 and select your target account group which you want to modify and check whether the fields
county code and city code are suppressed make the required or optional
then you can modify the account group
BOTH the source account group and Target account group should be similar in fields and views then only you can modify

Link Recon account to customer account group

hi guys,
Where do we link a reconciliation account to the customer account group?
thanks
srik.

We do not link recon account to the customer account grp.
account group controls
1) the interval for the account numbers
2) whether the number is assigned internally by the system or externally by the user (type of number assignment)
3) whether it is a one-time account
4) which fields are ready for input or must be filled when creating and changing master records (field status) we control the field of recon account from the account group.
we will assign the recon acc when creating a customer master data so that
(When you post to a customer account, the system automatically makes a corresponding posting to the appropriate reconciliation account in the general ledger. This means that it is no longer necessary to transfer the figures from the sub ledger accounts to the general ledger before creating the balance sheet.)

Vendor/Customer Account Group and Master Records

Hi Gurus,
Please tell me during implementation Vendor/Customer account groups and Master Records will be prepared by FI Consultants or MM, SD Consultants?
Waiting for reply
ThankYOu

Dear Verma
It is the usual practice that FI consultants should prepare Account group and also maintain General data and Company code date in Vendor/Customer masters. SD and MM consultants are informed by FI to maintain Sales and Purchase organization respectively by SD and MM consultants.
If this helps please reward with points.

Customer master Query report doesnt pick all the customer account groups

Hello experts
We have a custom Query report created using customer master tables KNA1,KNVV,KNB1 etc. We have customers maintained under 5 customer account groups. One of the selection fields in the query is account group. But it displays customers only in 4 of the 5 account groups for some reason, even though we have customers maintained in that group(prospective customers).
Any reason why this could occur? How do i ensure that customers from all account groups are visible?
Thanks in advance

Hai Ravi
In SAP query if you join
KNA1 - KNB1- KNVV
General - Sasles data - company data
May be your 5th Account type is created without company code data.
The query will display only if the data is linked in all tables.
In case if you don't have company code data but you want the details of the account group customer
In the query join screen.
Right click on the joining line between KNB1 and KNVV and select Left outer join.
Now run the report , it will show all the account group data.

Mani
