2 types of communication method assigned to 1 Vendor Master Record?

Hi,
Do you know if it is possible to have 2 different types of communication methods assigned to 1 vendor master record? i.e. I want to be able to send out remittance advices via email but send the purchase orders via XML? The XML is the primary communication method.
Thanks
Sarah

First of all do not post your query in Cap's.
The field selection is based on the account group
the XK01 will create the vendor for Purchasing data as well as company code data
OMSX - to control the data based on the Tcode
XK01= centrally
MK01= Purchasing

Infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record

Hi All,
pls help me what infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record in AP module.
Customer require when Create Employee then system automatic gernerate Vendor Master.
pls help us.
Thanks

Hi,
PRAA works absolutely fine. I have external number range for vendors.
There is an option so that you can create HR accounts in vendor accounts
Path:Accounting> Financial accounting>Travel
management>Personal-Related Master Data> Create Vendors (tr.code PRAA)
Look at this description:
From the HR master data, this program creates a batch input session for
maintaining person-specific vendor master records.
The report can process vendor master records as follows:
o Initial set up (create/add missing company code segment)
o Uupdate (change completely according to vendor and HR reference)
o Change (only according to HR master data, for example, name
Block
The following infotypes from HR master data are taken into account for
the key date specified:
o Actions (Infotype 0000)
o Organizational Assignment (Infotype 0001)
o Personal Data (Infotype 0002)
o Permanent Residence (Infotype 0006 Subtype 1)
o Bank Details (Infotype 0009 Subtype 0 or 2)
All other required data is taken from a reference vendor that you can
specify as a parameter when you start the program. Note that for the
reference vendor, reference data must exist for all company codes that
are applicable according to HR master data. Since program RPRAPA00 cannot
assign vendor master record numbers externally when creating
vendor master records, you must be sure that the reference vendor is
assigned to an account group that requires internal number assignment.
If no house bank is specified in the reference vendor, this is
determined via feature TRVHB (Implementation guide for 'Travel Expenses'
-> Transfer to Data Medium Exchange -> Set up Feature for Determining
House Bank according to the employee's organizational situation.
The link between the HR employee's master record and the corresponding
vendor master record is set up by entering the personnel number in the
company code segment of the vendor master record.
General program flow
Program RPRAPA00 creates a sequential work file in the specified
directory. Ensure that you use a global directory that can be accessed
by all application servers; a directory is automatically proposed. The
work file is later transformed into a batch input session by the
subsequent program RFBIKR00, which is started automatically.
In test run mode this program delivers information messages which
document the creation of a batch input session. Since each information
message must be confirmed manually, the test run should only be
performed for a small number of personnel numbers.
In productive run mode, however, the program RFBIKR00 is automatically
started as a job; the information mentioned above is stored in the job
log in this case.
Initial setup of vendor master records
Corresponding vendor master records are created from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. During the process, the personnel number is stored in the
company code segment of the vendor master record. Persons who already
have a vendor master record with corresponding personnel number are
rejected in this run.
If a vendor master record already exists for a personnel number, but
without a company code segment for the company code in which the
employee exists at the key date entered, the program adds the required
company code segment to the vendor master record. You must however
activate the checkbox "Create new company code segment for existing
vendor master records".
The HR master data used is the info type record valid on the key date
entered.
Update of vendor master records
The corresponding vendor master records are updated from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. Persons who already have a vendor master record with
corresponding personnel number are rejected in this run. The system uses
HR master data from the infotype records valid for the key date.
Change vendor master records according to HR master data
All HR-specific data is changed in the vendor master records for
personnel numbers that have changes since the date recorded under '...
with last change since'. The system uses HR master data again from the
infotype records valid for the key date specified.
Block vendor master records
All vendor master records which correspond with the selected personnel
numbers are blocked for posting.
User exits
For the following situations, two empty routines are supplied in the
includes RPRAPAEX and RPRAPAEX&H5F001 which you can adapt to your
requirements.
o The employee's last name is entered in the sort field in the vendor
master record. If you do not want this to happen, you can program
the situation you want in the user exit routine
'set&H5Fmc&H5Ffield&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If the address editing in the vendor master record does not suit
your requirements, it can also be changed. For this purpose you have
the user exit routine 'set&H5Faddress&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If you want to assign numbers to the vendor master records to be
created via external number assignment (for example, vendor master
record number &H3D personnel number), you can adjust the user exit
routing 'SET&H5FVENDOR&H5FNO&H5FBY&H5FUSER' (in include RPRAPAEX&H5F00). Note
that
the account group of the reference vendor must also have external
number assignment.
Note that in each case a thorough knowledge of the programming
language
ABAP/4 is necessary.
Set up vendor master records in a separate system
The distribution of personnel master data from a HR system to an FI
system is a prerequisite for creating, changing, and blocking vendor
master records.
In the section Master Data Distribution (link to separate HR unit) of
the ALE IMG, an explanation is given regarding the way in which the
FI
System is supplied with the relevant employee data from the HR System
In the FI System, report RPRAPA00 described here can be used to
create,
change, and block vendor master records.
Other wise try with VPE1 t.code.

Payment method not defaulting from Vendor master data

Hi All
I am running F110 payment run. In the Payment proposal SAP is not pulling payment method from vendor master data for some invoice. we have like two payment methods , Sap is defaulting payment method for one type of payment method and not defaulting for the other...What could be the possible reasons?( for both the invoices We are not maintaining any payment method)

Hi
In F110 if payment methods are different from vendor master data and payment methods mentioned in parameters tab it will take payment methods from parameters tab, so that you have to give both payment methods in parameters tab so that it will consider both.

Rec. type as mandatory in WHT tab of Vendor Maste

Dear All,
please let us know how to make Rec. type as mandatory in WHT tab of Vendor Master.

Dear Swati,
We are not getting u r exact requirement regarding required filed of some vendors belonging to 5 account groups. Are they maintained any vendor master template or not ? It is totally user monitoring! How can system knows whehter this vendor belonging to TDS or not, before creating venndor master data?
No validation also possible. Validation possible if that transaction is online transaction not like vendor master data creation. Try to expediency to your business heads.

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.

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

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

Create Vendor Master Record

Hi,
We are merging with two other companies. The two companies are going to shift to SAP. We requested some mock up data for them to setup our master records. I was asked to setup vendor master record. Can some guide me of the most important looks I should be looking/asking for them to determine if I have all the information that is required to create a vendor master record. We are just creating a prototype data at this time.
Thanks

Hello
Assume you would like to create 2 VMR's for 2 company codes.
In my opinion, check the master data fields one by one, and maintain uniformity in the basic mandatory fields.
Recon account could also be same, payment terms could be similar, and so on.
In any case, there would be clash or overlapping of any transactions, as both the vendors belong to seperate company codes.

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.

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,

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.

Delete vendor master record

Dear All,
We need to delete some vendor master records and following the below procedure for deletion.
Step1:   Flag for deletion for the vendor to be deleted in XK06
Step2:   Maintained logical file and assigned path in T- code FILE (Physical path is maintained as F:\usr\sap\T3P\DVEBMGS00\work\{<FILENAME>} taken from T code AL11from the directory DIR_HOME)
Step3:   In SARA, maintained object as FI_ACCPAYB and in configuration maintained logical file name
                Selected write option, maintained variant with the vendor name ,selected the check box General master records and saved
                Executed the archive program
Step4:   In job overview write job is shown but not delete job (ARV_FI_ACCPAYB_WRI20090427155628)
We followed the above procedure for material master and it was deleted well but unable to delete vendor master.
Please let us know if there is any other procedure to delete vendor master or we missing anything in maintaining the logical file or in archiving procedure.
Note      : No transactional data exists for these vendors to be deleted.

Dear,
Deleting Vendor master is a big task even for experienced Consultants - I feel.
Usually you can change vendor name as DO NOT USE or DELETED. If any user try to use this vendor the name will appear as above.
Please check the OSS note:
Note 206812 - User exit for archiving MM vendor master data
Note 122641 - Vendor change documents not archived
Note 77670 - FI - Master data archiving Delete deletion flag
Note 84913 - Vendor master; deleting invalid partner functions

Transporting Vendor Master Records

Is there any information, or process flow, that shows how to transport vendor master records from a cleansing client to production?

Master data is not transported but created in the respective clients by either LSMW, BAPI programs, IDOC, BDC programs etc.
If you're the MM person then you can discuss with your technical person on the method to be adopted. Once that is done you prepare the template & the data, provide the same to your technical person to do the upload alternatively you can do the same yourself.
If you wish to know more about it, then I would strongly suggest that you use the search feature in MM forums or maybe even google to get an idea.
