Solved - Group Fields for Vendor Master Records in IMG

This was the solution.
The new field's data element I added to LFB1 did not have the "change document" field checked. I made that change and now that field shows up in IMG.
Hello all,
I added an append structure to the table LFB1. This structure has 1 field. I then created a "Modification-Free Enhancement of Vendor Master Record" to add the new LFB1 field to the vendor master screen, edit and display screens. This is the 3rd time I have done this. So far so good.
Now our functional analyst went into IMG to add this new LFB1 field to a "Group Fields for Vendor Master Records" which we have done 2 other times.
The new LFB1 field does not show up in the list of possible Table-fields.
There must be some other step I am missing.
Does any of this ring a bell? We are on version 4.7.
Thanks
Bruce
p.s.
This is the IMG path for adding 'Field Groups' to vendor master fields.

Group Fields for Vendor Master Records
Edited by: Bruce Tjosvold on Nov 21, 2008 1:18 PM

Hi Vandana,
There are several tables that are contain Vendor Master related data which can be used for extraction to BW. Some of the tables which can be useful for you are:
LFA1 : Vendor Master (General Section)
LFM1 : Vendor master record purchasing organization data
LFBW : Vendor master record (withholding tax types) X
WYT3 : Partner Functions
LFBK : Vendor Master (Bank Details)
LFB1: Vendor Master (Company Code)
ADRC: Addresses (Business Address Services)
ADR3: Fax Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADR6: SMTP Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADRT: Communication Data Text (Business Address Services)
You may use the Data sources mentioned in the previous update from Venky above namely :
0VENDOR_ATTR --- for master data attributes
0VENDOR_TEXTS -- For texts
Since the fields that you are using are from different tables so its better if you go for a Generic Data source where you can use the fields as per your requirement.
Thanks
Pawan

Define sensitive fields for vendor master record

Hello,
Wer are on SAP ECC 6.0 Customer wants to define sensitive fields for dual control. I have defined the bankaccount number as a sensitive field but I do not know how I need to define the other settings. Can anybody helpe me with that ? Where f.i do I define the persons who will confirm the changes ? n short which customzing steps do I need to follow to implment the sensitive fields for dual control.
Thanks as ever!!

Hi,
You should not allow any user, whatever may be his or her position in the Organization with SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW profiles. It is totally against the Segregation of Duties and there is every possibility for making financial fradulent activities. Proper security approach is very much necessary in order give them the authorization on "NEED TO KNOW" Basis.
Regarding your question of sending mail, there is no functionality as such in Standard SAP. However, by taking help from ABAPer and schedule in the non-peak hours (night time) to generate mails for the approvals of today.
For your other question, which fields are to be kept Sensitive field, normally you can keep PAYMENT TERMS and PAYMENT METHODS as sensitive fields. You can also select other fields based on your business requirement.
Please let me know if you need further information.

Ravi

Can validation check can be set for vendor master record .

Hi Experts ,
User wants to remove two existing payment methods,instead of removing i think to set validation for the vendor master record .
can validation can be set for vendor master record ?
PLease suggest me with advice.
Thanks
Pardha

Hi,
To my knowledge, validation can be set up for accounting document.
Though a work around, create a validation such that
Make the user enter the Payment method to be mandatorily entered by the user.
Also, restrict the unwanted payments as well in the same validation.
In case of APP also, the payment method in the document will take precedence.

Reg the Sort Key field in Vendor Master Record

Hi MM Gurus,
I have the requirement of displaying the Purchase Order number & Line Item number in the Accounting document of the Goods Receipt. i.e., in the "Assignment" field.
I have made the necessary configuration in FS00 for the specific GL account & also specified 014 code in the corresponding Vendor master record.
However, once I post the GR document, and checked the "Assignment" field, it displays only the Purchase Order number and not the Line item number.
Kindly help me on this.
Best Regards
Sudhi

Have you posted the above document after set 014 in FS00 ?
Can you test the same in your practice client.
Check the document for more details Sort Key Functionalities and the wiki content How to update Assignment field in FBL*N report - ERP Financials - SCN Wiki
(Note: The changes of FS00 as 014 will not effect old documents)

FB03 display restrictions by using corporate group field of Vendor master

We had new requirement for the FB03 Transaction display.
1> In vendor master data we are assigning the Secure and non-secure for the corporate account group field. Based on the Secure and non-secure, we have to restrict the FB03 transaction display.
2> If itu2019s secure vendor, then no one should have authorization to display the documents belongs to these vendors of any transactions (Fb03 or FBL1N).
So based on this criteria we need to restrict the display for FB03 transaction.
thanks and regards
Prathap

Hello Pratap
Please seek help from your SAP BASIS
How it works is
1. You have a T code
2. You see which roles use it
3. Then accordingly you can tag that role to the User
4. Moreover when basis works they check in SUIM t code as to which roles the T code is tagged to and then they go ahead and assign the same to the user
5. There is another t code PFCG where they create z roles as well since standard roles are not used by them. And in this t code the authorisation objects are handled as well and profiles and roles are created. This is then tagged to a user.
6. then this authorisation is visible in SU01 in the user
Thanks and Regards

Email id field for Vendor Master

Hi Experts.
Can any1 tell me where to enter E-Mail id while creating the vendor with Transaction Code-XK01 as i cudnt find the e-mail field for entering the vendor master's mail address anywhere in Vendor: Address Screen.
Thanks in Advance.
Deepak

Hi,
Goto the T.Code "OMSG".
Select your account group.
Double click on it and goto details.
Double click on "General data".
Double click on "communication".
Check whether the field "Internet mail address" is suppressed or not.I think in your case it is suppressed.So you are not able to see that field.Change it to optional entry.
Regards,
Krishna.

Manditory fields for vendor master

my requirement is i am using tcode SXDA using RFBIKR00.
minimum mandatory fields for create vendor master.
in my legacy system BPCS i have fields like
name with char 45 mapping to BLFA1-NAME1 char 35.
ADDRESS char 40 map to BLFA1-stras char 35.
and how to handle with the variation of field length while mapping.
pls its urgent.

Two ways that I can think of:
1) Truncate
2) Produce a report from the legacy system that lists all fields that have thir contents greater than the structure length. Then the users must decide whether to change the names to a shorter one before the upload.

Group Reconcile for Vendor master

Hello,
I want to group reconcile account for choose when create vendor master data in FK01
For example.
I have 10 reconcile account for AP and 3 vendor group
But I want to group reconcile account 1, 2 , 3 only for vendor group 1
reconcile account 4, 5 , 6 only for vendor group 2 and
reconcile account 7, 8 , 9 , 10 only for vendor group 3
When I go to FK01 for create vendor group 1 I can see only reconcile account 1, 2 , 3
How to configuration?
Thank you very much.

You can create a validation for this . So that when user enters Group I and recon a/c other than 1,2,3 , System can give a message that Select 1,2 or 3 only.
or if you want to control in the search help ( F4 ) itself , take technical consultant help.

What are the important views or field in vendors master record

All,
We are converting two different companies into our SAP. We are at blue printing stage. I was assigned to gather vendor master data requirements in SAP. I sent them all the fields that we are currently using in SAP. I sent them a template of General, Company code data and purchasing views. The legacy team is coming to meet with our it team one to one to discuss the importance of the fields. Now my team manager asked us to submit a presentation about all the questions we should be asking the legacy team as well as the important information we should be discussing from SAP point of view. Can someone guide me here please. It's important.
Thanks,

Hi The task is pretty simple. You would need to create a mapping from the legacy data to SAP data. You would go through every field of the legacy data and identify which field it will map to. there is nothing like important field. Ideally you would get all the fields. Identify the recon account that the vendors should go to.
Hope this helps
Points will be appreciated.

Zaid Azam

This report does not reflect the old and the new values for changed bank details.
It does not show anything under the old value and shows **deleted** and **created** for new values.

You will have to do configuration in T Codes OBAT and OBAU to achieve what you want in the report.
Check the IMG activity documentation for the following.

Vendor Master Record: Tax Number 1 Field

Hi Everyone,
For some reason, when you enter XK01 or XK02 for creation or change of vendor master record, Tax Number 1 within the Control Tab is visible and able to be input. However, when displaying the vendor master record through XK03, the field is not visible. Reviewing the field options for vendor master record did not reveal anything to me. Any ideas why?
Thanks,
Pete

Unable to make Postal code as required field in Vendor master creation

Hi,
We have a requirement of making Postal code (POST_CODE1) field under street address of new vendor master creation/change as a required field.
In the configuration settings of vendor account group (OBD3), SAP provided Postal code City combined as only one field.
Even after making the Postal code&City field as required in the configuration of a particular Vendor group (OBD3), the system is allowing to create new vendor master under that particular group with out the input of Postal code.
The system only making the city (CITY1) as required filed but not the Postal code (POST_CODE1) even after setting Postal code&City field as required in OBD3.
Could you please provide the activities to be performed apart from the above so as to make Postal code as required filed at the time of the vendor master creation/change
Regards
Mani Prasad

Yes, it is country specific. It will affect in vendor masters as well Customer masters.
You have two options now :
Create a Transaction variant using SHD0 and Make Postal code field as required and create a custom transaction code in SE93 (Transaction with Variant (Variant transaction) and assign here and save. Your requirement will be fulfilled.
Else you can go for Enhancement using EXIT_SAPMF02K_001 Vendors: User Exit for Checks prior to Saving
The following user exits exist for vendor master records:
o Check entered data before saving
Please refer to the interface description of the function module to see which data is available.
If we found any other solution we will let you know the same.
