Alternate address in vendor master data

Hi,
I have an requirment to maintain the Alternate address in vendor master data.
My client is having requirement that the vendor must be same but may be situated in two different locations so they wants to maintain two addresses in vendor master.
If we maintain parner functions then we have to create an additional master data of vendor which is not accepting by the client and they want to create only one vendor with two different addresses.
Can any one please suggest me how to maintain alternate address in vendor master? as i could not able to see any alternate address fields in vendor master data.
Best Regards, Abdul

Hi Chakrapani,
In that case if we use parner function we have to create addtitional mater data right? please find the below schenario.
I have vendor number "X" where as an invoicing party I created vendor "A" which I maintained as parner function of invoicing party with different address.
If invoice generated on which vendor account this invoice will reflect? if it in "X" or in "A".
If the invoice open item creates in vendor account number "X" then it would be fine with me, also if possible please let me know how to configure the partner functions and the functionality in this case.
Many thanks in advance.
Best Regards, Abdul

Vendor master data-name 1 40 or 35 characters?

Hi,
In vendor master data, field name1, the data element show it has 40 characters, but in LFA1, the field length is 35.
If I key in forty chaacters, and save, it is successful, go back to see it, it really display 40 characters, but check table:LFA1, I see only 35 characters, where other 5 character store? what is the logic of this?
Thanks.

Message no. AM228
Diagnosis
The address data maintained in field NAME1 occupies 40 of 40 characters The last 5 characters of the field NAME1 can be used only with restrictions.
System Response
In this form the data can be saved and used up to the complete length of 40 characters.
In some scenarios, the system only uses the first 35 characters of name fields, of the fields 'Street', 'City', 'District', as well as the first 10 characters of the field 'Search Term 1'.
These cases are:
ALE: the address data can only be transferred with 35 characters (search term 1 only 10 characters) in the case of some ALE message types (IDOC types) for reasons of compatibility with other releases and components. The message types in question are:
DEBMAS
CREMAS
DEBCOR
CRECOR
The problems do not occur if the relevant address data in IDOC ADRMAS is sent in each case, together with these message types.
EDI: the address data can only be transferred with 35 characters (search term 1 only 10 characters) with the standard UN/EDIFACT for reasons of compatibility.
Print: addresses are formatted with only 35 characters in some print forms for standard envelope windows. If the address number is in the address output structures, you can output the address fields in full length in forms. (See OSS note 145753 for FI forms.)
Procedure
If you do not want the address data to be truncated in these scenarios, only use the first 35 characters of the name fields, of the fields "Street", "City", "District" or the first 10 characters of the field "Search Term 1" during maintenance, or abbreviate the texts, if necessary.
Effects on Customizing
You can define when this system message is to be issued in accordance with your requirements.
You do this in Customizing as follows: Cross-Application Components -> Bank Directory -> Change Message Control.

Issue with Vendor Master Data-field notes ID (Table ADRT-REMARK)

Hello,
I have a issue related to Vendor Master Data maintenance.
The client wants to maintain the u201CNotesu201D field in vendor master data. The field gets populated from the field u201CADTR-REMARKu201D table ADRT.
Now client wants to maintain some alphabet to distinguish some of vendors (i.e. 1250) out of 5000 vendors. We tried to develop LSMW, however it is not getting generated as this field is not getting recorded as the field is inside the tab (next to e-mail id field) which requires click. It seems BDC also is also not working as it is not populating these fields except e-mail id.
The table ADRT contains filed ADDRNUMBER which is the same field in LFA1, and it is ADRNR (Address number).
Also please note that CATT/e CATT is not permitted at all the client level.
Can any body suggest the way to change the master data through some way.
Regards,
Chepan

Hi,
Did you heard about SAP GUI Scripting? There is SAP functionality - seems to Excel Macros. You are able to record SAP like macros, then after small code modifcation (code is in Visual Basic), and special excel origin (there could be excel prepared like for CATT) upload data to VMD.
If you have any questions I try to help you?
Best regards,
Piotr

Restrict access for Vendor Master Data

Hi all.
Our company structure is like below:
Single instance, just one mandant.
Company codes like 1001, 3001, 6002, 6006, etc... over the world.
At some companies just the central administration can create vendor for the companies using the transaction XK01.
Now we need to give access to users from one of our company from other country but we can´t give access to transaction XK01 because just the central administration can create the master data for the vendors.
I already read about the object F_LFA1_AEN that is possible to create some field groups and give access just for the rigth groups. I also read that this authorization groups don´t have effect on the vendor master data like address.
How can I restrict access for the vendor master data? I´m thinking to give access to transaction FK01 and MK01 and restrict access for create a new vendor, I only want that the users can create the data for a new company or new purchase organization.
Thank you
Darlei Friedel

among many other authorization objects, you find following three:
F_LFA1_GEN general data
F_LFA1_BUK company code data
M_LFM1_EKO purchasing org data.
If the user does not have authorization for F_LFA1_GEN , then he cannot maintain general data.

AR/AP Vendor Master Data

Hi Gurus,
When creating vendor master data, is there any possibility of defaulting some fields by vendor group so that creation can be simplified/eased?
please advice.
many thanks
cecile

Hi Cecile,
If you want to create a Vendor/Customer master Manually then you can create Customer with reference . While creating customer you can give the existing customer number .
Point to consider while creating with reference ..
-->If you only enter the customer number in the reference section, the system will only copy the general data into the new customer master record. If you also enter data on the sales area, the sales and distribution data will also be copied. Only data, which can be identical for both master records, is copied. For example, address and unloading points are not copied, while country, language and account group are. but You can change all copied data.
If you want to create multiple record then use LSMW with help of BDC recording OR use BAPI - BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1 or as suggested other BAPIs.
please go through below link ,,if you are creating first time master data ..
Master Data Upload - First Time, Then Must Read

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.

How to create automatic creation of BP from customer and vendor master data

Hi gurus,
can any one tell how to create automatic creation of BP from customer and vendor master data.
Please give me the steps.
Thanks
Sasikanth.

HI,
Goto SPRO\ Cross application components \ Master data synchronization \ Synchronization control.
Assign account groups of customer and vendors to respective BP grouping. This setting is enough to create BP in background while creating customer / vendor. But the fields groups are very much important, ensure mandatory fields should be sync.

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

Payment terms in Vendor Master data and purchasing info record

Hi, all, I met one trouble. While I create Purchase Order. In the header item, payment terms is automatically pop up from the data maintaining the vendor master data or purchasing info record if there is difference payment terms between in vendor master data and in purchasing info record. What happend?
Sometimes, When you create purchase order, payment terms is not automatically pop up even you maintained in the vendor master data or purchasing info record. Why? Is it meaning that I can manually to input payment terms while create each purchase order which can be difference data with vendor master data or purchase info record?
Thank you very much in advance,

Hi,
The payment terms is usually defaulted from either vendor master or purchasing master data record such as contract/outline agreement. Unless it is set through configuration that the payment terms be set as mandatory, any failure to maintain payment terms won't stop you from posting your PO as this information will only be useful during invoice receipt maintenance. Having said that if you are setting up your system with discount condition type as part of your PO pricing schema then it is necessary that the payment terms shall be maintained during PO creation.
Cheers,

I don't want to use LSMW, Is there any other method by which i can copy the vendor between the clients or i have to do it manually?
Please Help ASAP

Hi,
You have to do necessary setting for ALE and IDOC will get generated and data will get transfer based on the Program Schedule in Bacground.
You can schedule program in bacground as per your requirement of IDOC transfer and data generation from One Client to other. [i.e. end of the day, Hourly, monthly etc.]
