Dear Experts,
I am uploading the master data of functional location through LSMW .I had completed all the steps except "Run Batch Input Session".
In that step it is showing as functional location already exists, after this error the remaining functional locations are updated in sap or it will stop total transaction by this error???
how can u upload the remaining in to sap by skipping already existed one????
here I am uploading the error screen shot.
Thanks & Regards,
Sunil BoyaHi Jogeswara Rao Kavala,
When I am pressing back or NO option it is showing error like this
What is this OK- Code means?
how can I resume this process, even it was not going to back screen also and only one option is available for exit from this is by going into MENU-SYSTEM-SERVICES-BATCH INPUT-CANCEL.

Is there a standard report I can use to monitor specific asset master data fields? My customer updates the second description line in the asset master (ANLA-TXA50) for some business process they have. They would like to be able to have a report that compiles all the master data changes every month.
Alternatively, I remember that I can also use evaluation groups for user-defined fields but how do I report them?Hi Paul,
Thank you for the information. This is exactly what I needed.

Dear All,
We want to know the table in which the changes made in ASSET MASTER are stored.
My user has made a lot of changes in all ASSET MASTER. e.g. cost center has been changed for 1000 of assets
We want to find all the values that has been changed at asset table level.
Do suggest.
RegardsDear Mauri,
Can you let me know what does the document number(in output screen) mean : S_ALR_87101238 transaction.

Uploading HR Master Data through LSMW or BDC
I want to upload the HR Master Data to the system through LSMW or BDC, I am aware that for some infotypes like 000,1 &2 BDC is more suited, whereas for other infotypes LSMW is more convenient. I would like to understand how to start the activity. Should I start with infotype 0000 first and then 0001 and so on or can I take any infotype randomly and upload? What I mean is, is there any dependency that an infotype data can be loaded only after certain other related infotype data is loaded first? e.g. can load infotype 0006 first and then infotype 0001?
Also please guide me on for which infotype LSMW is preferred and for which infotype BDC is preferred? Can BDC be used within LSMW?
-ShambhviHi,
Do it like this way:- come into recording screen and give tcode PA40 now select in PA40 screen hiring action>execute> fill the details>save when 0001 screen wil open click on back button.> now in second step> give any name and discr.>save>back> third step> click on table button and give >

Vendor master upload through LSMW
Hi,
I am uploading data in XK01 transaction through LSMW using Batch input method with Object = 0040 and method = 0001. Standard batch input program is RFBIKR00. Can I upload address data and purchasing data through one LSMW? As I am unable to update two fields in the transaction, WAERS and ZTERM. All other fields are updated in the transaction.
Please help me out.you are correct, I had the wrong content in the memory while inserting the structure name.
but where do you check? what is the basis for this:
But I am unable to update payment terms and currency code in the transaction. can you tell me why these two fields are not updating in the transaction. -
Upload Property Master Data through LSMW
I am using the following BAPI to upload the Property Data through LSMW.
Business Object: BUS1502
Method: CREATE
Message Type: BUS1502_CREATE
Basic Type: BUS1502_CREATE03
There are two issues which needs to be addressed and hope that this forum can help me out.
1. In this BAPI, i dont see the field mapping for Company Code and Business Entity, both mandatory fields for creating a Property record.
2. Skipping the first step, i reached the step "Start IDoc Generation" in LSMW and get the following error.
EDI: Table passed to EDI_SEGMENTS_ADD_BLOCK is empty.
Anyone encountered these issues? Suggestions to resolve these issues?
HamdanHello Hamdan,
First of all, good decision to use BAPI + LSMW it is the best way to load DATA specifically in REFX. Here's answer to your questions.
1. Pass Company code, BE, other header level fields in E1BUS1502_CREATE structure. This is the main Header structure of the Baisc type you are using. Create source structure with these fields and mapp it to the BAPI fields and you are all set.
2. Check the EDI_DC40 element, or other structures if you are passing values. SAP/System will fill/populate these values on its own, do not pass any values example in fields DOCNUM, CREDAT, etc.
Good luck,

How to change cost center in asset master data through mass changes
Hi sap gurus,
Hi i have 20 assets i have to change the cost center through mass changes provide the solution.
regards,
ramanjaneyulu.Hi,
For 20 assets it won't be useful to write a CATT or LSMW. So, either enter it manually or you could correct directly in the tables (ANLZ), though it's generally not recommended.

Hi All,
I am uploading assets for a new company purchased by us in company code 2222, which uploading the data by using lsmw we are getting the following error message. We checked in customization that there is a date mentioned in legacy transfer date as 31.03.2006
Let me know if we change this to 31.03.2010 as the new company will be purchased in April 2010, will this have any issue ??
The error msg is as follows
Closed fiscal year does not agree with legacy data transfer date
Message no. AC199
Diagnosis
The closed fiscal year 2008 does not agree with transfer date 31.03.2006.
If you wish to carry out a transfer within the fiscal year, the date of the legacy data transfer has to be in the year following the closed fiscal year.
Example: Transfer date July 1, 1993; closed fiscal year 1992
In any other cases the transfer date has to be the last day of the last closed fiscal year.
Example: Transfer date December 31, 1993; closed fiscal year 1993Hi,
As i told earlier, there is no harm by changing legacy asset transfer date.
Since this date determines, when you are uploading legacy assets.
In a simple words, it means a cut off date, which is taken to upload legacy assets. (As on date)
You need to maintain both APC Value, and Accum dep in your AS91 under takeover values tab. (Values must be closing balance of 31.03.2010)
Thanks,

Business area default in asset master record
Dear all
Here is one ticket pertains to asset
when i create asset master record business area will be defaulted
the problem is when i upload asset master record through LSMW
by different business area the system throws a error message BUSINESS AREA EXISTS WHICH CANT BE REPLACED THROUGH LSMW
This is happening for all the asset classes
so i want to remove that default business area from where should i remove that which t-code or menu path
regards ravindra kumarDear ravinagh
removing of business area in asset master record is always possible but
see when u r uploading bulk asset master records through LSMW we cant replace the business area as it is already defaulted in asset master record
means some where we have assigned the default values to the asset classes or some other master record
so we have to find out the source of the defualt business area for asset master record
when we remove this from the asset classes then the business area will not be defaulted so that we can upload assets from LSMW with different business area
so please try to find out the source....................
regards

How to change cost center in Asset Master record ?
Hi SAP Gurus,
My client is asking me to change cost centers in Asset Master records using LSMW. Currently, the field cost center is in display mode. In order to change the cost center, the field cost center must be in change mode while recording in LSMW. I have changed screen layout rule for Asset Master data. I have selected radio button "Optional" for cost center in screen layout for Asset Master data. But still cost center field is in display mode in Asset Master record. It must be changeable.
Please suggest me how I can resolve the issue.
Regards,
K.S.KHi Saravana,
We can change the cost center for AuC Investment measure at WBS element level. For that purpose we need to go to AuC Investment measure Asset master record and check WBS element under Origin Tab. Double click on WBSE and then check the cost center under Assignment tab. And also check the cost center in Asset master record for the same. Now you can go to T.Code CJ12 (Change WBS Element) and change the cost center for the same. Once you make changes system automatically change the cost center in asset master record for the same.
Note: - Now you have to identify all the AuC Investment measure Assets and the WBS Element for the same. Then change the cost center in WBS Element record. And the corresponding changes will be done in relevant Asset master record automatically.
But before making the change please check with the PS/PM consultant regarding changes in WBS element. Means where it will effect?
With Regards

Cost Center Change in Asset master
Hi Gurus
I have one problem of Asset master change
If I change cost center in asset master after depriciation run (same period for which dep. posting has been done) now make rerun of depreciation posting.
at that time has new depreciation posting done for new cost center or remain as it is ???
Exact scenario is like this
1) Depreciation posting was complated for period 1/2007
2) now change cost center which effective date is 1/1/2007 in asset master
3) now rerun of depreciation posting
The depreciation posting with new cost center does not created
Please reply me as soon as possible
Thanks in advance
Paresh JivaniHi Jivani,
The when you have already executed depreciation run for the assets, system will not allow the re-run that as it affect FI posting.
In your case, you case distreibute your depreciation cost to new cost center and next month run will take care if you have changed the cost center.

Vinod
