BBPGETVD does nor replicate Standard Comm Method - FAX

Question

Hi All,
When I use BBPGETVD tcode to transfer new vendor into SRM from ERP. It Transfers all data except Standard Comm Method - FAX but it defaults to Standard Comm. Method as EMAIL.
Although the vendor was set up as FAX.
We have to use Tcode BP to update that field independently once the vendor master data is transferred to SRM.
Can anyone suggest why is this working differently ? Is there a place where Vendor Master Fields/screens are configured in SPRO in SRM for Tcode BBPGETVD ?
Any help is highly appreciated.

Hello Manoj,
I guess fax number is populated in R/3 vendor master ?
Did you check for existing logs concerning this vendor after replication in SLG1 transaction ?
And what about BBPUPDVD after first vendor replication: does it correctly update communication method ?
You can also debug BBPGETVD to find what the problem is and look for OSS notes (for example 1171493 - Send Medium not updated for Business Partner for SRM_SERVER 5.5 and 6).
Regards.
Laurent.
