Create business partner with reference of another business partner

Hi all,
I want to create a business partner with reference of another BP in CRM 2007 from Web UI, please advise whether it is possible or not, if not ...why it is not possible?
Looking forward for your reply!
Regards,
Silpa.

Hi Silpa,
In the standard, this isn't possible with the BP. However, you can create a customer as a reference of another existing customer, and then sync this new customer into a new BP. So you can do this indirectly,.
If you want to create a BP directy as a reference of another BP - sorry, this isn't possible. You would need to copy the BP into another BP using a custom report. You can develop your report along these lines :
1. The easiest way is to use APIs. Start by calling BUPA_CENTRAL_GET_DETAIL usign the BP number. THis will give you all the central data for the BP - e.g. name, etc. Now, merely feed the output of this module into the module BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA. This will create a new BP with the same data of the old BP.
2. Now that the main BP is ready, you need to start copying the individual datasets - addresses, bank details, roles, Id, industry,etc. This is tricky - the ADD apis - BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD, BUPA_ROLE_ADD, etc can only create one record in a call. So, you need to first get the data of the reference BP using the GET_DETAIL api e.g. : BUPA_ADDRESS_GET_DETAIL, then loop at each returned record, and pass that into the corresponding ADD BAPI.
3. Be sure to call BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT at the end to commit the data to the DB.
I hope this helps you.
Cheers,
Rishu.

  • Using BAPI_PO_CREATE to create a PO with reference to another PO.

    Hi, I am using BAPI_PO_CREATE to create a PO with reference to another PO, in the po_header_add_data, I have done this: po_head_add-our_ref = p_ebeln.
                 CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PO_CREATE'
                       EXPORTING
                            po_header             = po_head
                            po_header_add_data    = po_head_add
                            skip_items_with_error = ''
                       IMPORTING
                            purchaseorder         = po_nbr
                       TABLES
                            po_item_schedules     = po_item_schedules

                            po_items              = poitem1
                            return                = return.
    But when I have created the PO, in the our reference field, it is space? Why? If I want to fill the the our reference  with the another PO, how should I do?

  • Creating an order with reference to another doc

    I want to create an Order with reference to another document.....in other words it should be a copy of the other document...
    Any ideas of what function modules we have to use and how we can acheive it...

    Hi Vin
    Creating a Sales Order from a Sales Order Quotation is SAP Standard so really should not be an issue for you.
    You do need to maintain the Copy Control Configuration as per my previous reply.
    Define Copying Control for Transaction Types
    Define Item Category Determination when Copying
    Effectively the details of your Transaction Type for Sales Order Quotation will copy into your Sales Order transaction.
    I'm used to working in an environment where the user manually decides to then continue with a follow-up transaction, therefore I'm not too sure which Function Modules you need to use in order to do this automatically.
    But you are on the right track.

  • BAPI to create equipment hierachy with reference to another equipment

    HI,
    is there any BAPI to create equipment hierarchy with reference to another equipment.
    i.e. in selection screen i pass two equipments, one has hierachy and another one don't have hierarchy.
    then it copy hierachy first equipment hierarchy and create same hierarchy for second equipment.

    Hi,
    There are no standard BAPI to do that.You will have to create a custom program which would read the current equipment hierarchy and build the hierarchy from the lowest level, by using the equipment create BAPI and  Equipment install BAPI.

  • BAPI to create sales order with reference to another sales order

    hi all,
    is there a bapi that allows you to create a sales order with reference to another sales order?
    thanks,
    V

    Hi Valencia,
    I think the normal BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT1)will do. You will have to fill the fields REF_DOC, REF_DOC_IT, REF_DOC_CA of the table ORDER_ITEMS_IN (and make sure that Customizing settings allow you to copy from order to order).

  • Creating a Invoice with reference to another invoice with new pricing proce

    Hi People,
    I want to raise a supplimentary excise invoice for the differential price.
    I want to do it by raising a supplimentary commercial invoice with reference to the old invoice but with a new pricing procedure assigned to it.later on raise the supplimentary excise invoice with Tcode j1iin wrt the new commercial invoice.
    Although i have done all the necessary configurations such as determination of new pricing procedure, Doc pricing Procedure and changing the pricing type at the copy control settings of the item category to "B".
    i am unable to get the new pricing procedure when i am creating the supplimentary commercial invoice.
    Can u people suggest me in this regard

    Dear Nagabhushan
    Normally for price difference, there is an order type RK for "Invoice Correction Request" which should be created in reference to F2 billing document.  Based on this, you can issue credit memo (document type G2). 
    This being the case, you cannot create supplimentary invoice with reference to original invoice.  Moreover, for all excise related adjustments, you should not use j1iin.  You should run j1ih - Other adj.
    thanks

  • BAPI For CREATE SALES ORDER WITH REFERENCE TO ORDER

    Hi ,
    I want to develop a new RFC for 'Creating Sales Order' with reference to another sales order -
    Is there any BAPI available for the same ? (Version 4.7) - I know its available for new create and change
    but couldn't find for create with reference to Order ...
    Thanks in advance ...
    Regards
    Rajesh.

    Hi,
    You can use this FM "/SAPNEA/SMAPI_ORDER_CREATE". I haven;t tried this but you can still give it a try. Mention the Reference Order Type and other data in the header work area and pass it to the FM.
    Reward if it's useful.
    Thanks,

  • Creating a PO with reference (using document overview) with ref to a PO?

    Is this feasible to create a PO with reference to a PO ?????

    Hi Maria,
    Creating a PO with reference to another PO is possible even without the doc. overview. If you scroll your item overview long to the right you will find the columns "Purchasing document" and "Item" aside it (4th nd 3rd columns from the right in my version). Type in your referenced PO number there and the item and press Enter.
    However, I don't think this will help you. If you are not allowed to create PO with reference to another PO, you will not be able to "cheat" on the system. Such limitation is normally introduced by "Functional auth. for buyers": IMG for Purchasing > Authorization Management > Define Function Authorizations for Buyers. Check the frame "Possible Reference Objects". The two-digit key of the "func. auth." is assigned to your user using the parameter ID EFB.

    Hi Madhan
    Thanks a lot for your reply.
    However, I would like to know which parameters need to passed in this BAPI in case of SO creation with reference. I beleive there are only a few parameters that need to passed in ORDER_HEADER_IN, ORDER_ITEMS_IN, etc.
    Need to know exactly which are these parameters.

  • Create a configurable material with reference to another config material

    Hi,
    I want to create a configurable material with reference to another configurable material from different system.
    Please tell me what data i need to check to see if that material has been created (copied manually) successfully.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    In case of configurable material most important thing is configuration so please check weather the configuration is copied perfectly with all characteristics or not. Similarly check the valuation class and price control is proper or not.

    Hi,
    Are you sure you can create a sales order with reference to ANOTHER sales order? The reason I ask is that in the front end, sales orders are created with reference to either quotations or contracts. There are settings known as "copying control" that need to be maintained for this to show up as document flow.
    We have been working on a BAPI to create a sales order, but that is without reference to another document, and it works fine.
    Could you please elaborate?
    Cheers.

  • Tables for creating a new sales order with reference to another

    Hi Experts
      In ABAP, how can identify that  I'm creating a new sales order with reference to another in the userexit read_document??, In which tables is this information??.
    Thanks
    Regards

    In Table VBFA there are two fields
    a)  Preceding Document  and
    b)  Subsequent Document category
    Based on the above two fields, you can conclude that sale order is created with reference to a preceding document.
    thanks
