Action profile for Business Partners

Dear SAPers,
Currently Action profile, can be easily set-up for Business transactions (Opp, Activity,etc.).
Examle: When Opp status is changed (schedule condition, start condition), Business Parnter attribute is adapted (Execution).
Does anyone know if Action profile can be set-up for Business Partner?
Examle: When BP is changed (schedule condition, start condition), Business transaction attribute is adapted (Execution).
In standard, it does not look possible.
Should it be possible from Business Parnter BADI (check_before_save) to generate the schedule condition of a set of Business transactions e.g Opp.
Thanks for any help.

Hi Marc,
Yes. As of today you can customize the Action Profiles to trigger actions for Business Transactions only. This is not available for the Business Partners. So, your approach of Business Partner BADI sounds a very reasonable solution to achieve the functionality.
And for the Business Partner BADI that you mentioned here I was unable to find any such BADI in SAP CRM 7.0 system. Can you let me know from which system you got that BADI name?
I got a BADI of BP - COM_PARTNER_BADI. Can you have a look at the implementations of it so as to have a understanding of it's usage.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Samantak.

Action profile for send email to multiple partners

Hi
i need to send Smartforms mail using action profile to all partners assigned in the partners tab.
Is there some standard way of doing it other than creating partner dependent action profile for each partner?
Thanks
Itty

hi Itty,
based on my knowledge and experience, there is 2 ways for sending a smartforms via mail in action, ie :
1. using smartforms mail
2. using method.
for option 1, only can be send to one target only. therefore usually i used the option 2.
in option 2 basically you create an implementation class from defenition class EXEC_METHODCALL_PPF.
the implementation class basically just a program, so in this implementation class you can get all the partners in the partners tab using function modul CRM_ORDER_READ and get all recipient mail, generate the smartforms and send it as attachment to all mail target.
hopes it helps
cheers

How to create an Action Profile for a Survey

Hi
Can you please help me with the steps to create an Action Profile for a Survey. Eg. If the user creates a like Lead / Service, Action profile assigned to the Transaction type has to trigger the Survey.
Thx

Hi Kalees,
Survey is nothing but a Questioner that is Represent the Feedback for a Particular Transaction.
Controlling Survey by a Action Profile is possible to some Extent indirectly.
One way of Controlling the Survey Execution based on System Status
Go To:Customer Relationship Management>Transactions>Settings for Activities>Questionnaires>Define Determination Criteria for Questionnaires Define a Criteria Set for a Particular Status,Here what ever Status Assigned are Responsible for the Survey Form to Appear in that Transaction Type at that Particular Status.
In Define Determination for Questionnaires: Business Activity:assign the Criteria Set that you have Created to your Survey Form
Go To:Customer Relationship Management>Transactions>Basic Settings>Status Management>Change Status Profile for User Status The Status Profile that you are using Ensure that the System Statuses are Assigned to a User Status on which you want the Survey Determination to Happen.
Direct Action Trigger for Survy Form is not Possible
This is one way to Control the Transaction Type Status and in mean you shall indirectly get Control over the Survey Form
Hope it Answers your Queries..
Thanks and Regards,
RK.

BSP-Login for business partners

BSP-Applications are written for business partners (BP). But login is only possible for SAP-Users. Can I couple SAP-Users and business partners anyhow? My first idea is to create a SAP-User for every existing BP and give both of them foreign keys for finding the other side. This could be done online by BP, using a BSPUSER with rights to create internet users.
But I think this would be a dirty solution. Both, SAP-User and BP, uses same tables like ADRP. Is there no possibility to link them in an other way? Im sure, this problem appears in the most other applications too.
If anyone has an idea or can reference other related topics (I found nothing), I would be grateful.
Thanks, Peter

That was a typo. Sorry.
I meant using a BSPUSER and the aliases in SU01.
You have a User ID, when the login occurs it does a check for the alias in a table. Can't remember the table name at the moment.
Basically it matches the alias to an actual Dialog user.
In our system the Dialog user and alias name are the same name but you could use any alias name from my understanding. However you then have the problem of matching one to one.
Or you use your own loging mask and methods. We tried that first but found it was too difficult to keep up with everything and since the system did it we changed and did it the system way.
Recommened way from SAP for the loginning of Business Partners is to create the Business Partner as an Internet User.
When doing so though read note 415112, 509599, 490382

Mapping of Identification Number Categories for Business Partners

Hi people!!!
I´m working with the table BPIDCONV on Solution Manager, which is the table of Mapping of Identification Number Categories for Business Partners.
Somebody knows how create an entry on this table?
I suppose that is on Customizing.

Hi,
The tax category of all the countries are stored in Table TFKTAXNUMTYPE
and it is a standard SAP delivered table and should be identical in all
our customer systems.Table TFKTAXNUMTYPE is governed by the legal
requirements and hence SAP provides Tax category for only those
countries which have defined legal requirement for maintaining that
particular Tax number to keep system legally complaint.
Please find the note 775919 which comprises of all the available
Tax types to our customers which are delivered by SAP.
I hope this information is usefull and help you to resolve your
query.Feel free to get back to me if you have any issue further.

[Special Prices for Business Partners] and [Hierarchies and Expansions]

Dear Sirs,
I am running into three problems.
1.) I loaded 313 items Special Prices by DTW however I can not locate where it went?
I searched via the path [Inventory>Price Lists>Special Prices>Special Prices for Business Partners]but find nothing in there.
2.) I can not find DTW templates for Hierarchies and Expansions data load.
Also I searched via the path [Inventory>Price Lists>Special Prices>Hierarchies and Expansions] to see if the Special Prices I loaded with DTW maybe there but find nothing there.
3.) I can not find any information related to Hierarchies and Expansions in the [diapi] help file.
Could it be these two functionalities require "manual" input?
If so, how on earth the 313 Special Prices DTW data load went through "successfully" and find no trace of it?
I am pulling my hair off to find some advice.
Would appreciate it greatly if someone could enlighten me on these two functionalities.

Hi Kuni,
To quickly answer your questions:
1.) I loaded 313 items Special Prices by DTW however I can not locate where it went?
The path is correct. If you can't find anything probably something went wrong in the DTW import.
Check that the "Test Run" checkbox was not checked and all required keys are entered in the templates.
2.) I can not find DTW templates for Hierarchies and Expansions data load.
The relevant templates are:
SpecialPrices.xlt
SpecialPricesDataAreas.xlt
SpecialPricesQuantityAreas.xlt
the default location when installing DTW is:
C:\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates\Templates\oSpecialPrices
When entering Hierarchies and Expansions (renamed to Period and Volume Discount in Version 2007) you must enter *x for CardCode where x is the price list number.
3.) I can not find any information related to Hierarchies and Expansions in the diapi help file.
The information in the DI API file is under the SpecialPrices Object.
See below some general information regarding special prices:
SpecialPrices is a business object part of the Inventory and Production module under
Select Inventory > Price Lists > Special Prices > Special Prices for Business Partners.
OR
Select Inventory > Price Lists > Period and Volume Discount (Hierarchies and Expansions in previous versions)
Interesting points:
Source table: OSPP
DTW Template: SpecialPrices.csv
Mandatory fields in SAP Business One: CardCode and ItemCode.
PriceListNum is a foreign key to the PriceLists object - source table OPLN, field name ListNum.
CardCode is the Business Partner CardCode to enter Special Prices for Business Partners.
Child object of the SpecialPrices Object: SpecialPricesDataAreas (source table: SPP1)
DTW Template: SpecialPricesDataAreas.csv
LineNum (Field name LINENUM) - Always enter the appropriate LineNumber you want to update (starts from 0).
Child object of the SpecialPricesDataAreas Object: SpecialPricesQuantityArea (source table: SPP2)
DTW Template: SpecialPricesQuantityAreas.csv
LineNum (Field Name SPP2LNum). Always enter the appropriate LineNumber you want to update (starts from 0).
Hope that information helps a little. If you have any fruther questions enter the following information:
1. SAP Business One Version including Patch level
2. Do you get any error message after the import? What is the message returned?
Kind Regards,

Action Profiles for Order Confirmation

Hello,
I need to set up basic action Profile for sending emails upon order confirmation. So I set up 2 actions inside an action profile
1. One action to send an email based on partner function Sold to Party
2. Another action to send email based on partner function Bill -to Party
When I go to the order, I can see only the Action for Sold to Party but not the other action. I need both these actions to execute one after another/or simultaneously
Both these actions do not have a start condition.
Both these partner functions is different
*Email address have been maintained.
I tried changing the sort also to see if it would make a difference, It is just not picking up the second one action.
Can anyone help me out!!!
Thanks,
Karthik

How to enter opening balances for business partners

thank
reema

Hi Reema....
There are two processes you can enter OB for BP.
1. Bill waise
2. Total
If you want to go for Bill wise then its better to upload the AP and AR invoice under service category via DTW.
If you want to go for Total BP balance then go to Administration> System Initialization> Opening Balance--> Opening Balance Business Partner.

Deleting single row from Special Price for Business Partners

Hi Experts,
How would I go about about deleting a single row from Special Prices for Business Partners across all BPs when for most of my BPs this is the only special price they have. I have tried using Copy Discounts function but once you are down to 0 rows the record has effectively gone from the table so there is nothing to copy.
Hopefully I won't have to go thorugh 5000 records and delete each one idividually.
Thanks
Jon

Hi Jon,
You may try a tool called B1TCH:

Duplicate Check for Business Partners

Hi,
I was checking the Application COMM_CONTACT. When I create a new contact person, there is a duplicate check. When you want to create a new business partner of type person, the system raises an pop-up. This pop up appears when you want to create a new contact person of an company, which already exists.
I would like to have this kind of functionality for the creation of an business partner of type organisation.
Does any of you folks have an solution for that issue without an third party product.
Or do you have any clue, why the explained problem on the top does not work with business partners (organizations), as it is working with business partners (person).
Thanks in advance
Stephan

Hi
goto Table:CRMV_BP_DCIFL and choose table =ADRC and required filed name at waht level you want to have Duplicate check for ORG and fill other relevant data as you filled for ADRP table entry
Try this....

Number range Issue for Business partners

In our Feeder system (SAP ECC), the number ranges are over lapped for customers and vendors.
For example Customer master record : 100245 is for ABC customer and Vendor Master record: 100245 is for XYZ vendor.
When these records were transferred from ECC to GTS, both were transferred. When searching for a business partner using external number 100245 in GTS it pulls out two records.
First question: Will this be an issue?
Second Question: Is there any way, we can transfer Vendors and Customers which can use different number ranges in GTS?
Please help.

Hi,
1. As soon as we consider only one feeder system overlapping number ranges is not an issue. one external number can be assigned to two internal ones as business partners are having different roles. One as customer and one as vendor.
2. It is not possible to be done with standard functionality as business partners have only one common number range. It would be possible to do a bit of a coding mainly renaming/renumbering within transfer user exit.
Hope this answers your questions,
BR,
Gabriel.
