Business Partner creation in CRM/SRM with ID Management

Hi,
I have tried to find info about Business partner management with IDM to CRM/SRM...
Customer would have two use cases.. Internal and External users...
Internal use case is quite straight forward in IDM documentation.. I have two questions about this,,,
1. ALE connection from HCM to CRM/SRM to create BPs to internal users... is there anywhere documentation how to configure this ALE connection?
2. Is after SU01 user is created - Linking to BP automatical when using Business Suite connector ?
External use case. Customer would like to implement scenario, where BP is created either:
1. on CRM/SRM and IDM user would be created... and after approving new IDM user SU01 user with roles would be created nd BP linking would happen...
2. on IDM user is created - BP and SU01 user would be created on CRM side... and linking between them..
On external use case I have understood- that first one is possible without stronger customization and ABAP programming?
--- first one requires VDS and SPML ID store on IDM side
And something to send Newly created BP from CRM to IDM with SPML
or does IDM check regularry with SPML CRM for newly created BPs??
Does anyone know how actually this is happening?
And is there any special configuration needed on CRM side? or some transaction to run after BP creation?
IDM version 7.1 SP5

Hi,
Check whether the BP roles have been defined in the system.
Go to  Customizing:
Cross-Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner -> Basic Settings -> Define BP Roles
Here you can define BP Roles and BP Categories.
Make sure the appropriate category is assigned to the BP role that you are trying to create. For this select the BP role and click on the "details" button.
Also read the documentation provided here.

  • Business partner creation - Not in sync with customer numbers -

    Hi All
    I am trying to do the BP conversion in collections management.
    The customer number range for account group ZXXX  is (80000 to 89999) and the external number range flag is not selected.
    I have created created a number range Y2 through BUCF, with numbers from (80000 to 89999), I did not choose external flag, thinking it should be same as customer number range. I have created a BP group ZXXX and assigned this number range Y2.
    Later when I did the BP conversion through MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT, I observed that the BPs are not in sync with the customer numbers.
    So my question, should I have choosen external number range flag in BUCF, even though its not selected in the customer number range? Has this caused the issue?
    Please help me understand this and rectify this issue.
    thanks in advance.
    Krishna

    Hi Christobal,
    Thank you so much for you response. 
    As suggested, I have checked BP number range as external. Later when I ran MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT, I get the below messages
    Grouping ZXXX has external number assignment, enter a number
    Partner data processed with key PartnerGUID 4E1BD7375F080AE0E10080000A5B030E
    Grouping ZXXX has external number assignment, enter a number
    So is there any other setting which I might be missing?
    Please advise.
    Thanks

  • Business partner replication from CRM to ECC

    Hi everyone,
        In case of vendor master data after business partner creation  in CRM  the vendor Master Data should get created in ECC
    system also at the moment i dont have an idea whether it will get replicated to ecc are not can any one help me how to acheive this requirement.

    >>Messages sent when I test corresponding proxy interface, but not sent when I try to create or modify BP. What else should I check to find out the reason of this problem?
    BP Creation will be done be a standard SAP program may be a Function Module. Change Pointer or User Exist should be added to this BP Creation Function Module in order to trigger the Proxy Class with BP data.
    Though am not an ABAP expert, I guess the changesshould be done to the standard flow to trigger Proxy Class also..

  • Business Partner Creation ( Master Tenant with Customer Account)

    Hello Experts
    Am trying to create a master tenant with a customer account, but as i save the business partner there is no corresponding creation of the master tenant with a customer account in the company code. The system only generates a business partner created. I have cheked the settings on business partner customer and have the correct FI custmer acount to the business partner, have also checked settings on the assignment of the reconciliation account to the BP and again it is compatible with the customer reconciliation account in Financials. I have also the synchronization data to see whether the synchronization object is activated, and it was not activated and i activated it, but still am not able to create a master tenant with customer account.
    Please Experts help me on this am very very  stranded
    Regards
    David Mavi

    Hi David,
                  Following activities are to be done to create customer simultaneously while the creation of business partner.
    Business Partner Number Range: IMG>Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX)>Business Partner>Relevant Settings for Business Partner in RE Context>Number Range>Business Partner Number Range
    Define Grouping and number range: IMG>Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX)>Business Partner>Relevant Settings for Business Partner in RE Context>Number Range>Define Groupings and Assign Number Ranges
    Also make sure that the customer account group is created with a number range which should be external. The number range for the business partner should be internal.           
    Master Data syncronization: IMG>Cross Application Components>Master Data Synchronization>Customer/Vendor Integration>Business Partner Settings>Settings for Customer Integration>Field Assignment for Customer Integration>Assign Keys>Define Number Assignment for Direction of BP to Customer
    In the settings select the same number range only if the number ranges for the customer account group and BP groups are the same.
    If u have done all these things and still the customer is not getting created then there might be a problem of the mandatory fields. i.e may be in customer account group some fields are mandatory which are not getting copied from the BP. So make all the fields in the customer account group as optional. and try to create new BP again.

  • Business Partner creation - Sales Area Data retrieves blank divisions

    During business partner creation, the sales area data assignment block will retrieve a list of all relevant sales organizations, distribution channels, and divisions that are replicated from ECC. This is working fine. However, it also adds to this list with the sales organizations, distribution channels, and blank divisions. Blank divisions do not exist in either ECC or CRM. It appears to be using the dummy division settings, but I have attempted to configure with the indicator "CRM Header Div. Active" as both active and inactive, to no effect. The only time I have been able to condense this list into a single line has been when I actually activated dummy divisions -- to which CRM would now retrieve only sales organizations, distribution channels, and blank divisions. This is not an ideal solution either.
    How do I get the system to remove the blank divisions from being displayed? It is very confusing to the users, not to mention polluting the screen.
    Example (both are being displayed, I only want the one with an actual value to be displayed):
    Sales Org = 1000, Dist Chan = 10, Division = blank
    Sales Org = 1000, Dist Chan = 10, Division = 10

    any insight woudl be much appreciated. thanks.

  • Display Org Unit based on User logon in Business partner creation..

    Hi Gurus,.
    I have to assign Sales Org , DIV, Distribution Channel to the Business Partner in Sales Area data.  When I try system shows entire Org structure. But I want the Org structure should be displayed based on the user log on. Assume that, I am assigned to Shangai and creating Business partner for Shangai, the system should not show Beijing or other Org Unit since I belong to Shangai.  How to address this scenario thro standard customization?
    Is it common problem in CRM Webui(6.0 and 7.0).
    My Org Structure:
    Global
      China
         Shangai
         Beijing
       Nanjing.
    Thanks in Advance....

    Hi Varma,
    From my understanding of your problem, you can approach it in a different manner. Since, you mentioned that you will be receiving a delimited flat file around 5 to 6 times a day, you can probably consider coming up with a Report Program. This Report will consume the flat file, generate the necessary organizations, business partners, BP relationships and then create them and finish with the logging of all the messages ( Success, Error, Warnings, etc.)
    You can now schedule this report execution in a Batch Processing Job which will be executed as per the scheduled time and at the end of the day you can see all the application log files.
    This is just an approach and you can modify the report in your own way. I guess that the flat file will be located somewhere in the same place daily so that you can hard code the File Name and Path in the report.
    Regarding the Organization and Business Partner creation, you can use the standard SAP delivered BAPI's which will return you all the errors properly.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
    Samantak.

    Hi Tiest,
    Yes, PIDE entries made.
    BP is replcating in R/3 successfully.
    In R/3 transaction "XD01" if we create customer along with "Account Group" & "Company code", view "company code data" is visible. I would like to populate this view with "Reconciliation account" entry.
    While passing data from CRM, I would like to pass company code. At present, while passing BP from CRM to R/3, Account View is not getting created.
    Ex. If the user creates Sales view using sales
    Organisation xxxx in CRM then the system should create Accounting view in R/3 company code YYYY.
    Please reply, if further information required.

    KNVA
    KNVI
    KNVK
    KNVP

    In Business partner creation/Change screen(Tcode BP),if pressing BACK or CANCEL button without saving data, it will ask for confirmation that Want to save data or not.If we press YES it will save the data,or if we press  NO it won't. Is there any Enhancement spot (User exit or BADi) available after triggering the above confirmation message.If so kindly intimate me the Exit name or BADi name.
    Thanks in Advance..

    Try using Implicit Enhancements .
    I have got implicit enhancements over here for you.
    check out if Useful while dubugging.
    include :LBUS_LOCATORF05
    screen 3000
    prog SAPLBUS_LOCATOR
    form dynpro_pai_begin
    dynpro_pai_end
    create IMPLICIT enhancements here.
    To avoid confusion write your code after IF condition checking for
    GV_OK_CODE which is BUS_MAIN_BACK and dynpro number.
    If you dont know Implicit enhancements try this link

    checking ok_code is necessay otherwise it will be executed everytime PAIis triggered.

  • Mass Update of Business Partner Data in CRM

    Hi,
    I would like to know how I can perform a mass update of business partner data in CRM and then have this replicated into R/3.
    I have found notes 802804, 876602, 859632 but these only apply to CRM 5.0 and we are currently working on CRM 4.0.  Does anyone know of anything similar which exists in CRM 4.0?
    I have checked other posts and found help files links like the one below but is this only on CRM 5.0?  (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/3c/9b56fae6c7424cafcdf17370399812/frameset.htm )
    Has anyone used the tx. MASS in CRM?
    Also our volume update levels is as high as 300,000 record and updating in CRM and replicating into R/3 through the middleware is causing performance problems.
    Does anyone have any tips on the best approach for this?  Many thanks.
    Regards
    JoJo

    Mass not available in 4.0, could write your own LSMW routine but you still will create bdocs for updates so not sure how that will improve your performance.

  • FSCM-COL Business Partner Creation for Existing Customers

    Experts-
    After using MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT to create the initial load of Business Partners, there are a few Customers which are still missing Business Partners. Automatic Creation of Business Partners is set up and fully functioning for any new Customers created, however when attempting to use MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT for the existing Customers which are missing Business Partners the error message 'No transfer of interval for object BU_PARTNER' (Message no. NR028) is received.
    If the Automatic Creation of Business Partners is working correctly at the time of Customer Master creation, what would prevent the Business Partner from being created after the Customer already exists?
    Please let me know if further clarification is needed on what is outlined above.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Corey

    In case someone runs into a similar issue in the future, the resolution to this issue is provided below:
    In the case I've highlighted the customer had been created, yet the Business Partner failed to be created in the Automatic Business Partner Creation functionality initially due to a missed Tax Number Category configuration. Once this configuration was complete the BP still failed to create via XD02 or MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT. MDS_PPO2 gave the initial error message as 'Business partner ##1 does not exist' (Message no. R1201).
    Although the Customer to BP synchronization setting were set up for an external number range, the presence of contact persons in the Customer Master record were causing SAP to look for grouping data. Since no grouping data was present SAP was attempting to create BPs contact persons using the internal number range, which was already set at its limit.
    By removing the contact persons from the customer master via XD02 and then re-executing the MDS_LOAD_COCKPIT, the requested Business Partner was created. After that the contact persons were then re-maintained in the customer master.
