Vendor master data Postal code

Hi,
I am trying to create a new vendor in country Japan (JP).
Postal code settings : Length 7 Rule 2
But when I am creating a Vendor with postal code of length 7, system is automatically adding a hyphen '-' in between and throwing an error message "Postal code XXX-XXXX exceeds 7 characters. Message no. AM656".
I am not sure why is this happening so.

OSS note 1381564 - Postal codes
explains that the postal code for Japan is Postal code format for Japan is 'NNN-NNNN'.
and you have to adjust your settings in OY07
to a length of 8 for postal code
and the checking rule should be set to 9.

MM: MIR7: How to display vendor master data "bank code" in the invoice doc.

Hi all,
I would like to display the bank code of the vendor in the header screen of the invoice. At the moment only the name of the bank is visible. Is there a possibility in the customizing to modify the screen of transaction code MIR7? I do not want to make a modification to the SAP Standard.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Max

Hi,
You can use custom validation program (Z*) by copying standard validation (RGGBR000) program.
Modify the validation program to check table vendor master data.
After that, you need to assign this custom validation program to GBLR application area in GCX2.
Thanks

Vendor Master - Can Postal Codes be different?

Hi.
A vendor has his office in Country X and the PO Box in Country Y.
So, the Postal Codes will be in different format.
We have two fields in the vendor master (xk02) :
City Postal Code : ADDR1_DATA-POST_CODE1
PO Box Postal code : ADDR1_DATA-POST_CODE2
However, the PO box postal code doesnot accept anything other than the format of the City Postal Code.
Is there a possibility to accomodate both postal codes (in different format eg. NNNN AA and NNNNN)

Hi,
Good morning and greetings,
Please go through the following SAP OSS Note
Note 384462 - Master data and addresses
Please reward points if found useful
Thanking you

Vendor master error - Postal code ??

Hi experts

Message no. AM207"
Can anybody tel me how to rectify this , this vendor is for netherlands.??
Some body Tel me what mught be the problem??

the checking rule is defined by SAP, following the country specific rules for their address and postal code layout.
It is mainly used to check the entries made at vendor master, customer master, delivery address, plant adress etc. maintenance.
But interfaces to external systems like VERTEX (just an example, not valid for NL, but other countries like USA have as well specific checking rules) rely on accurate entered postal codes.
If you get business letters from a customer or vendor from NL, then they have usually printed the postal code in the right fashion, you just need to type it like it shown to avoid an error coming from the checking rule.

Vendor master creation postal code mandatory through LSMW

Dear Expert
Postal code is mandatory while create vendor master record through LSMW,
but while create manually system is not asking the postal code,
mean not mandatory. please can tell why?
Regards
karan

you did not tell if you are speaking about a vendor in the same country
you did not tell what import method you are using in LSMW
if recording, then you may have missed to activate the small box for "use central address management"

Vendor Master Data - General and Company Code Data

Hi,
We are collecting vendor master data requirements. The requirements that I have are for Vendor General Data, Company Code Data (Accounting Info, Payment Transactions, Correspondence etc.) and Purchasing Org Data. Out of these 3 groups I can only see Vendor General Data that is mapped to CREMDM04 in SAP supplied syndication maps. I am wondering if someone could tell me how much effort is involved to first create the structure in MDM for Company Code data and Purchasing Data and then map these additional fields to CREMDM04 fields?
Why is it that Company Code data and Purchasing Data is not mapped in pre-delivered syndication maps?
Thanks in advance,
M

Thanks Shruti for your reply.
I agree with you. However, our client is really pushing for Company Code Data and Purchasing Org data along with Vendor General Data. Now, this is something that is new to me to do. I have never done this kind of customization before.
I would really appreciate if someone from SAP could give me their recommendation and also help me answer the following questions
1. Is this doable to map and syndicate Company Code data and Purchasing Org data along with Vendor General Data
2. Is it possible to then extract the tables that hold Company Code data and Purchasing Org data from ECC and bring it back in MDM to update MDM tables (that we are going to create for this data)?
3. What's the effort involved in this customization (Considering that we will be extending our repository structure, extend the syndication map, extract new tables from ECC for MDM, create import maps for these tables to import Company Code and Purchasing Org data into MDM)

M

Match code for Vendor Master Data on PAN

Hi
Vendor match code will work only if the name are identical. But for the same vendor, user create multiple vendors.
For Ex: If the vendor name is ABC Private Limited, User puts different names like ABC Pvt Ltd, ABC P Ltd, etc.
Hence the match code check is over ridden.
For that reason, i want check on the basis of PAN number.
There is no field for PAN number in match codes field.
Please suggest how it can be maintained

Hi ,
Use the exit SAPMF02K , which is specially ment for vendor master data .
Cheers ,

Bank detials Maintained in Vendor master data with out Sort code / Bank Key

Hi
We have a Requirement of creating Japanese bank details in Vendor Master Record. But No Bank key / sort code is available.
Even for Russian Bank accounts we donu2019t have any bank key / sort code available from client.
System does not allow to create vendor bank details with out providing Sort code/ Bank key details.
Is there is any way of creating bank details in Vendor master data with out giving Bank key details.
Regards,
Karunakar.

Hi,
I assume you fill in Sort Code in bank number field.
In my company, our bank number is set not to duplicate bank key.
So bank key is simply a reference. And our bank number field is not mandatory.
If you follow these settings, you can create an abitrary bank key for your vendor bank account.

FI-AP (vendor master group, Zip code required field)

Hello SAP Guru's,
I am working on Vendor master data groups and my client asked me to make the zip code field mandatory. When i go to "define account groups with screen layout- vendor name-general data- address, i don't see a tab for Zip code to make it a required field. However, i checked Postal code, city field and make it into a required field. Is zip code = Postal code, city? or do i have to contact other programmers so they can design this functionality in SAP?

Dear,
yes, I also confirm You that the Zip code is the Postal code.
So please go to IMG --> Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Vendors)
and for Your Account Group do the following setting:
double click on General data --> double click on Address
and define as Required entry the field Postal code, city technical names:
City LFA1-ORT01
Postal Code LFA1-PSTLZ
I hope this helps You.

Creation of Vendor Master Data

Hi,
In my company they are currently using this process to create Vendor Master Data: The Vendor Master Data is created in the Production Server and refreshed to Development Server and to Quality Server, using ALE.
Is this the right process? If not can you let me know the steps to create Vendor Master Data.
regards,
raj

Hi Raj,
ALE and IDoc is the best way to transfer master data between SAP system. They have excellent error handling and reprocessing capabilities (Recommended by SAP).
In order to automate the vendor master data transfer, you need to do the following steps.
1. Create Logical System (if not available) for PROD, QA and DEV system.
2. Create RFC Destination (SM59) from PROD to QA and DEV system.
3. Create Distribution Model from PROD to QA/DEV (BD64) for message type CREMAS (Vendor Master).
4. Create Partner Profile (WE20) for message type CREMAS in PROD, QA and DEV system.
5. Execute transaction code BD14 (Send Vendor) from PROD to QA and DEV system.
6. To monitor the IDoc, you can use transaction code WE02.
If you are not familiar with ALE/IDoc setup, please work with technical folk.
Hope this will help and give an idea.

Ferry Lianto

Vendor Master Data Archiving

Hi,
I wanted to archive vendor master data. I got program - SAPF058V which gives FI,Vendor Master Data Archiving: Proposal list.
This program checks whether and which Vendor Master data can be archived or not. I am getting error message after running this program with selection of one of the Vendor saying that "Links stored incompletely". Can someone pls help on this
Thanks...Narendra

Hi,
Check if you have an entry in table FRUN for PRGID 'SAPF047'. Other option is set the parameter 'FI link validation off'' with the flag on (ie: value 'x'). Check the help for this flag, surely this vendor have a code of customer. Perhaps you must try to delete this link in customer and vendor master before.
I hope this helps you,

Vendor master data upload

how do we upload vendor master data into SAP from legacy system.can anyone give me a detailed explination.
regards,
deepthi

Deepthi,
The steps would be (in LSMW) :
1 Create a new Project, Subproject (if not existing). Then give a name for the Object, say VendorMaster.
2 On the next screen, you will see several steps (radio buttons) to be performed. You should go in sequential order.
Double click the first, I think its called Maintain Object (sorry don't have access to SAP system right now)
3 On this screen you will see various options/methods (in the second section) for loading the data.
You may select which ever is appropriate or most suitable in your case.
Let's assume you want to use the very first options - Standard program for Direct Input/Batch.
4 Pull down (F4) for the Object & select Vendor Master.
5 Pull down again for the Method & select (I think( Standard). The program name & Type will be populated by LSMW.
If let's say none of the programs in this list satisfies your requirement, then you may decide to go for a Recording or a BAPI (again pull down & select appropriate method) or IDoc (CREMAS).
So now you have decided on the method you want to use for posting the Vendor Master data. Save the information & go back to the main screen of the object.
6 Double click on the next step for maintaining the Source Structure. Give the name(s) of the Source Structure(s).
7 Next step is to define the Source Structure(s) format (fields, attributes etc).
8 Next you maintain the relationship between the Structure(s) - Source & Target. The Target structures depend upon the method elected by you in step 5.
9 Next will be the most important step - ie specifying the mapping/conversion rules for each Target field. You can even write ABAP code by double clicking on the field - it will open up the editor where you can put in your ABAP code. There are also several events available - for instance at the <i>Beginning of Processing</i> or <i>Beginning of Transaction</i> etc. where again you can specify your own logic.
10 In the Next 2 steps you will give the file name & path & also associate the file(s) to the Source structure(s).
The develoment for the object is complete. Now you are ready to read, convert & post your Vendor Master data in SAP.
Let me know if you need additional assistance.
Regards,
Homiar.

Vendor Master data - Accounting Information

Hi All
In Vendor Master data - under tab Accounting Information - in authorization field we have some other company code!
what would be the impact?
Regards
Prasad

The value in authorisation field is a freely definable field. It is not a company code, though it be having the same name.
These authrisation value needs to be assigned to the user profile of those users which are authorised to use these vendors
Others will not be able to use this vendor
