Automatic replication of vendor masters from SAP R/3 to EBP

Question

Hi
For this issue I found the below program and steps to do the automatic replication of vendor master from SAP R/3 to EBP
PROGRAM BBP_VENDOR_SYNC
The program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC automatically synchronizes the backend vendors with the SRM system.
To run the program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC, you first have to make the following settings:
Path in the Implementation Guide (IMG):
Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server  -->Technical Basic Settings -->Settings for Vendor Synchronization --> Make Global Settings
Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server  -->Technical Basic Settings -->Settings for Vendor Synchronization --> Define Settings for Each Backend System
Then you have to make the following settings in transaction SA38:
· Enter program BBP_VENDOR_SYNC.
· Click on the pushbutton Background.
· Enter the report name BBP_VENDOR_SYNC.
· Either define a new variant or use an existing variant ( The new Variant as Test Vendor)
· Click on the pushbutton Schedule.
· Enter the job.
· Define the start date.
· Either schedule once or schedule periodically. Then you have to define the period interval.
I followed  the above mention steps and I am able to setup the Schedule on timely basis and the job was completed successfully, but the vendors are not replicated successfully .
I am receiving the below error in transaction code SLG1.
1.The Specified Node does not Exist in the Org. Plan(Message no. BBP_VENR006).
2.No Vendor Replicated from Backend MD1CLNT(Message no. BBP_VENR017).
Please check and advice.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Sadasivam,
Make Global Settings
Use
In Customizing for vendor synchronization, you define between which mySAP or ERP backend systems and the EBP System you wish to automatically synchronize the vendor master data. This setting is necessary in order to start a job-based execution of the synchronization, so that the vendor master data that is newly created or changed in the backend is updated regularly in the EBP System.
Requirements
You wish to use the automatic vendor synchronization functionality.
In the Implementation Guide (IMG) activity Define RFC Destinations, you have defined the RFC destinations for your systems.
Under Define Backend Systems, you have defined the backend systems for your systems.
Activities
Customizing for Vendor Synchronization consists of two parts. In the first part you make those settings that are valid for all backend systems. In the activity Make Settings for Each Backend System you can define or display detail data for the individual backend systems.
Make Global Settings
By setting the indicator Create New Vendors Also, you can determine that those vendors newly created in the backend systems are also newly created during the synchronization. If this indicator is not set, the only data updated is that of the vendors in the Enterprise Buyer System whose data was changed in the backend systems.
Note:
If you have not yet made an entry here, an empty screen appears when you start the activity. To make the settings, choose New entries or press F5.
Further Settings:
Carry Out Address Check for Duplicates :
Organizational Unit in EBP for the Vendor
Enter the eight-digit number, for example, 50001234.
Vendor Number Assignment Type
In the dropdown box, choose the method with which the number is to be allocated when a new vendor is created, for example, internal number allocation.
Hope this makes you more clear. My mail i.d is [email protected]
