Vendor Number Range Conflict SAP ECC and CRM 2007

I need to load SAP ECC Vendor data from SAP to CRM and have setup most of the configuration as required. However I have an issue, the vendor number range used currently in our SAP system is already in use in our CRM system and has been for some time (for Prospects and Contacts). What is the best approach to dealing with this issue...
My initial thought was to see if we could have two different numbers for the same vendor in ECC and SAP CRM
eg SAP Vendor "50000001" equates to CRM "VEN50000001"
Is such as approach supported? Can you point me to the documentation that shows how such an approach could be implemented. What approaches have others done to address similar issues?
Thanks in advance
Eddie
By the way we are on CRM 2007 sp4

Hi Eddie,
SAP Note 1044637 - Customize Vendor Numbers
Implement the code present in the attachment. You can
change it according to your own requirements. The example code
suffixes 'VEND' before the first six digits of the vendor
number before it is downloaded to CRM.
Thanks,

Vendor Number Range relation with account group.

Dear All,
I have one more doubt. Kindly clarify.
I know that account group and vendor number range and linked with each other. Number range can be assigned to one or many account groups. Let's consider a case where 3 Account groups (assume X,Y & Z) have one common number range. When we create a vendor, in an account group (for example, X) vendor code assigned internally is 100000.
Subsequently if we create another vendor in the account group Y, will the vendor code assigned intenally be, "100001", considering intervals to be of 1 or any other number falling in the number range assigned to this account group?
Does there lie any rule or method which assign the code in this manner or any other...?
EnjoySAP,
Thanks

Hi,
When a vendor master record is created, a unique number identifying the master record is assigned. The number comes from the number range provided for the account group.
Internal number assignment
Here the SAP R/3 System automatically assigns a consecutive number from the number range defined, irrespective of any number of account groups attached to which the number range has been assigned.

Missing Vendor Number Range

Dear Expert,
By mistake while uploading FI Vendor master to system we had given the Vendor Number in the template.
The vendor number range is maintained as internal.
All the vendor was updated and it is showing also.
But when in system we try to create new vendor it is showing account already exists.
We checked the number range the current Number is still zero.
Is there any program or any method that we can bring this current status sync with existing vendor master we had uploaded into the system.

Hi,
check T-code XKN1, tick "status", update the current number to the needed one.
Best regards, Christian

Xkn1 creation of vendor number range doubt

hi
In xkn1 vendor number range,
I want to insert the interval, as 02 10000 to 30000
when I try to save or insert , it is not saving,
A popup as "enter intervals without overlap "
if i try to change it to 2 or 20: its not accepting it, a message popups as existing number,
how to come ovr this problem,
before inserting number range, should we enter company code , please help me.
warm regards.

The reason you are getting that error message is that, that number interval is already used by another number range. Check the existing number ranges and choose an interval that is not used yet. Or you can assign an existing number range to the vendor group that you have created if that range satisfies your requirements.

Reset of vendor number range

Hi everyone!
Is there a way in which we can reset the vendor number range? We have already created vendors but some numbers were skipped. Is there a way in which we can re-use it?

no you cannot reuse the skipped numbers. Do not reset the number range.
You will certainly hit the situation that next number would be a number for which you already have a vendor, then SAP cannot save and not proceed further, until you are chaning the number in the range again.
But you can change the buffer setting, then SAP will not skip numbers in future.
execute SNUM, enter KREDITOR, click change and set buffer to 1

Having Two GR/IR account based on Vendor Number Ranges.

Dears,
Requirement of our client is to maintain Two GR/IR accounts based on Vendor number Ranges. I explained, as per standard functionality of SAP we can not have 2 GR/IR accounts based on vendor number ranges since system is checking the valuation class of Material but we can have 2 GR/IR accounts based on the Materials.
Please suggest me if there is any possiblity of having the above scenario so that I can add more points.
Thanks,
Omprakash

Hi Shahin,
You can do this using,
Material master QM view : Set the control for inspection lot creation as each material document,batch, storage location.
Inspection plan: Use the dynamic modification at characteristics level.
DMR: Create a DMR(lets say every 5 deliveries, assuming PO delivered in 5 delieveries) and assign it to each and every characteristics which you want to skip.
Please let me know whether it helps.

Gaps in vendor number range

Hi SAP Gurus,
I need your help in understanding the gaps in vendor number range,
I have created an internal number range for a vendor account group and created many vendor for the same.
However when I see the sequence of the vendors for that account group, I found gaps, can you please advise me why this gaps are generated by the system and where I can see the corresponding gap numbers in SAP.
Thanks,
Ramesh.

Hi,
Thanks for your quick reply,
Can you please advise me in which SAP table I can find all gaps whcih occured due to deletion.
Thanks,

Vendor number range

Hi friends,
Originally, we set up vendor account number to be external from 10000 to 19999. The last vendor number we created was 10051.now I unchecked the external box and make the number range to be internal with same range . When a create the vendor with the change, I expect the system will give me a number of 10052 after the creation. However I got a stop sign message say: "10000 has been created" . Creation failed. Then I tried the 2nd time, this time the stop sign error message says"10001 has been created". It seems I have to go through 51 times (my last vendor number was 10051) to be able to create a external vendor number.
Is there any way I could do to solve the problem?
thanks in advance,
Linda

Hi,
Check in SPRO (T.code XKN1) .
Here for the number range, in change mode (by clicking status button)you can maintain the current number as 10051. Then you can try to create a new vendor master and the system will pick the next number internally.

Vendor Number Range Problem

Hi Friends ,
          I have done all settings for Supplier Registration Process. I am able to transfer the supplier from pre selection screen and all the relevant information is coming in supplier screen, when i am clicking on SAVE button, I am getting following error messages.
1. Number not in interval 0000100001 u2013 1999999999
2. Business partner 162 already exists
In supplier screen partner number shows 162 which is in between Internal Number range assignment while at the time of SAVE system comparing with External Number Range assignment why? When I am changing partner number 162 with External Number range Number for example 100009 then only I am able to create Bidder else it is getting error. Should I have to change Number range assignment or Am I missing any steps?.
         I have assigned following entries in Tx. BUCF in SRM.

Vendor number range issue in BUCF transaction

Hi,
We are implementing the SRM 5.0 with Extended Classic scenario. I my current SRM system is already connected with 3 SAP R/3 system and I am implementing and adding 4th SAP R/3 system.
I am having an issue to replicating the vendor master from 4th R/3 system to our SRM system due to wrong number ranges in BUCF transaction code.
Current Number Range in SRM systems are:-
01     0010000000            0014999999     10003009
AB     0001000000        0009999999                        X     --> (7 Digits)
My new vendor master from 4th R/3 system is:-
0080000001        to     0080029999    --> (8 Digits)
My new vendor master number range is overlapping with my internal number range 01. As we know that we cannot reduce the lower range of 01 from 0010000000 to 0000000001. Also I cannot increase the number AB higher value from 0009999999 to 0099999999.
Can you any one please suggest me to correct the number range?
Thanks,
Senthil

Hello Senthill,
The vendor replication to external number ranges works as follows:-
(1) Cross-Application Components SAP Business Partner > Business Partne
> Basic Settings > Number Ranges and Groupings > Define Number Ranges
Here you sould define an external number range which corresponds to
the R/3 numbers. You may want to have more than one external range
in order to replicate all vendors.
(2) Cross-Application Components > SAP Business Partner > Business Part
> Basic Settings > Number Ranges and Groupings > Define Groupings and
Assign Number Ranges
For each replication run, you can download the vendors which correspond
to the external number range / grouping which is marked as 'standard
external'.
So, you will have to replicate your vendors separately for each number
range:-
Select the correct grouping each time by marking 'Ext.Std Grping'
and then run BBPGETVD for the vendors to be assigned to this grouping.
As standard, the customized settings for the number ranges
would have to be changed for each run of BBPGETVD and BBP_VENDOR_SYNC.
If you run the update or synchronization in combination with a
BADI the intervals could be taken into account.
The BADI is BBP_TRANSDATA_PREP
The methods are:-
Method: PREPARE_REPLICATION_DATA (intitial download)
Method: PREPARE_UPDATE_DATA (update)
Import data is stored in CT_LFA1 should be copied to an
internal table. There the required intervals can be determined.
This BADI is not assigned in the IMG but can be seen through SE18.
I hope this information is helpful.
Kind Regards,
Edel.

Vendor Number Range Assignment

Hi All,
I have a question... when we create a vendor using XK01 it automatically takes the system generated Vendor number, can you please tell me how can I manually enter a vendor number for a particular vendor. Also is there a way if we can keep both the ways working i.e. we should have a capability to create a vendor using the system generated number and at the same time we should also have a capability to do it manually also.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi
Which number can be assigned to a vendor depends on Account Group.
In customizing it's assigned for every Account Group if the range is internal or external.
So if u need to have vendor with an external range u need to define a new account group.
I don't think it's possible to use both kind of range for vendor belonging to the same account group, but in your system u can have account groups with external or internal range.

Vendor number range issue

Hi,
In testing server when i created a vendor it skipped number series sequence. Lastly vendor was created with xxxx50 but upon creation it created vendor with xxxx67, i have heard there is some problem with buffering settings in SNRO but when i look there i find it to be set as 5 then why system is skipping so numbers. Anyone can help me on it.

Hi,
Please ensure that none is using the system during the copy, this can generate this gaps
Also check note 175047:
In note 175047 you can find a summary about situations, where missing
document numbers (gaps) could occur. See also the referred notes at the
bottom of the note.
The possible and usual causes for the number range gaps are as follows-
   1. User exit USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE in program RV60AFZZ.
      Please check the user exit.
   2. Number buffering (which might not be applicable to your case)
      Please check transaction SNRO for object RV_BELEG to verify
      if buffering is switched on. Please refer to the attached
      note 62077, 23835 and 363901.
   3. Update termination
      This is the most likely cause of number range skipping.
      Please review trxn SM13 for update terminates during the run. If
      so, copy them in this message. Please also use trxn st22 to check
      whether shortdump occurred. If yes, upload the first 15 pages of
      the dump into this message.

Vendor number ranges - skip

Hi,
In our organization, we have defined the number range for vendors from 1000 to 2000 but the number of vendor codes created are 1999 but in XKN1, the current status is 1500 onlly. But when we try to create a vendor, it is stopping saying that the vendor code 1501 already exists and so on. Please help...
Thanks a lot...

Hi Sridevi,
Make sure,
1. Number is not external.
2. Check whether other company codes have created vendors under this group.

Customer / Vendor number range company Code

Hi All,
I have Created two Account Groups each for customer and vendor masters.
Domestic and International. We have 5 Comapany Codes. I want to Use the same Account Groups in all the company Code.
If i Create a vendor for domestic in company Code 1, It creates a Vendor with number 1001.
next I create a vendor for domestic in comapny Code 2, system assing 1002 as vendor number. but i want to use the start with number 1001 for company code 2 and also for company Codes.
Is it possible to acheive this with having only two account groups and assigning number based on company code.
Regards
Karthik

Dear Karthik,
Create customer and vendor account group company wise.
For eg Raw material vendor - xxx1 co code, Raw material vendor - xxx2 co code
This exercise will increase the no of vendor and customer groups. Just check the feasibilty of managing the same.

Kiran
