Business Partner Migration

Hello Group:
      I continue with LSMW+IDOC for Business Partner Migration in SAP Banking.
      I am using the Idoc Message BUPA_INBOUND_MAIN_SAVE_M.
      I get the error:
           Specify at least one number for the business partner.
      But if I complete the following fields:
           OBJECT_TASK = U
           BPARTNER = 0000300024
           BPARTNERGUID = 0017087CDA621DECB3B9F5618A6FC300
      The IDoc works Ok, and modify the BP in question (300024).
      In my originals tests, for CREATE a Business Partner, the first parameter had value "I" (Insert) and White the others two.
      Someone would know as I complete these parameters to achieve successfully creation of a New Business Partner?
                                    Greetings, Thank You, Herná

Estimates:
It Works using a Grouping with External Numbering, and Passing the Number of the Business Partner to Create.
Greetings, Thanks, Herná

Business partner migration using lsmw direct load .

Hi,
We need to do business partner migration using the direct load method.
We are thinking of using direct input method of lsmw for the data transfer.
Could someone suggest a proper object/ subobject for the same.
Alternatively has anyone done the same using LSMWbapi or LSMWidocs.
Inputs will be highly appreciated <<text removed>>
Dirk.

Hi ,
Does this solution give any way to update the customer fields too ?
We have few customer fields added to BUT tables ... How can we update these fields using LSMW and IDOC ?
Could you please give your opinion on thesame.

Business partner Migration Strategy

Dear All,
We have one project on CRM migration of Business partners along with marketing attributes from 4.0 to 7.0
There are two approaches u2013
1.     Either the data is transferred from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0
2.     Data is transferred from ECC6.0 to CRM 7.0
Which would be a better approach and why ?
Cheers,
Disha

Disha,
Since you have a requirement to transfer marketing attributes. Generally marketing attributes are maintained in CRM, so its easy to transfer from CRM to CRM. CRM4.0 and CRM7.0 data structures are almost same.
You need to go with data transfer from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 using XIF concept.
    Which requires very less configuration and easy maintenance. It transfers data through IDOC.
    To achieve this create site, subscriptions in SMOEAC tcode.
     Activate delta through CRMXIF_C1 tcode.

Migrate business partner data to CRM sytem

Dear all,
We're introducing a new CRM system in which we want to maintain the business partner information. One topic of this project is to migrate (export) all relevant business partner information from IS-U to the new system. My question now is if SAP has any standard solutions for exporting master data to e.g. an csv file?
Thanks in advance,
Georg

Hi Ivor,
Thanks for the suggestion. Though the output here doesn't encorporate all information we need. We are switching to a Microsoft solution (dynamicx AX2012) for maintaining the business partner. So we need to extract all business partner master data (general, addresses, contacts and roles) from IS-U. I know SAP has standard tools for importing such as EMIGALL or LSMW but I haven't found it for exporting.

Migration of Business Partner data, from a legacy system, does not work

Hi All,
We use a non-SAP application where our customers sign a loyalty program. The database created is replicated to CRM 7.0. However, when we create the Target Group in the Web Client UI, the number of Business Partner in CRM is different from the number of BP registered in the legacy system.
Any comment can be helpfull.!
Regards
Marí

Maria,
Please explain the way the data has been replicated,,, ( Errors in few records - answer to the mystery)
Is there any segmentation basis used while creating the target group? ( Segmentation Basis - answer to the mystery)
What are the data sources used for segmentation? ( Different query settings - answer to the mystery)

Error message "No business partner could be created for vendor ..."

Dear experts,
I had made all the customizing settings for BP and CVI vendor/customer - BP integration and synchronization settings before. BP creation from vendor and usage within Real Estate was working with no problems. When i tried to create a new BP role recently i must have changed the settings and now when creating BP from vendor (FLBPC1) i get the following message:
No business partner could be created for vendor"
The long text of the message is:
Message no. CVIV_UI013
Diagnosis
No business partner could be created from the vendor selected.
System Response
An error occurred when creating a business partner from the vendor selected. This error prevents data from being transferred and saved. This could be due to the following:
Fields have been left blank in the vendor that are set as required entry fields for the business partner.
Settings for assigning Customizing values for the vendor to the business partner are incorrect.
Procedure
Start the Post Processing Office and check the error message. Make the necessary corrections.
I have checked all my customizing settings one by one but cant locate anything missing or wrong.
Also, in 956054 it is said that i must perform various migration reports, but i believe if it did work before without running these reports, this couldnt not be the problem now.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
reason is the following.
The customer / vendor doesn't use special attribute to differentiate
between persons and organizations - in opposite to BP.
You can achieve what you want to do by using a BAdI prepared for that:
You'll find this in IMG transaction SPRO:
Cross-Application Components
Master Data Synchronization
    Customer/Vendor Integration
      Business Partner Settings
        BAdI: Data Assignment of Form of Address from Customer/Vendor t
Please read documentation of this BAdI in IMG.
You may use standard implementation CVI_MAP_BP_CATEGORY.
You also may create own implementation of the BAdI, if you want to
differentiate on other attributes.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Franz

Business Partner Syncroniation between RE-FX and AR

Hello,
I am in the process of migrating a customer's system from classic real estate to RE-FX using the migration tool REMICL.
Currently the customer adopts the process whereby business partners are manually created from customer records via the partners tab of the classic real estate lease-out contract. If any changes are made to the BP name or address, these are NOT transferred across to the corresponding customer record - even though the two records are linked.
Having carried out a test migration, the new RE-FX system is now working slightly differently, in that any changes to the business partner address are immediately transferred to the customer record and vice versa. Although I can understand why this is best practice, as the data is kept consistent, unfortunately this is a scenario the customer wishes to avoid!
Is there anyway of amending the syncroniation settings so that while the two records can be linked - any name or address amendments made to each one do not get copied over to the other?
One other option I thought may be worth further analysis would be to only maintain syncroniation between the customer and the general role of the BP, and then to somehow keep the tenant role separate from the syncronisation - so only updates made to the general role would feed back to the customer, whilst updates to the tenant role did not. I am guessing this would not be possible though...
I look forward to your responses,
Oliver

hi
to astablish the relationship between the product and business partner,first of all u should know that products are assigned according to thye category
mapping of the category to the product is made then the products are identified according to the product id.
now Bp are assigned to the org unit ,so under org unit maintain the org data like
sales org,sales unit and sales group
in those u will maintain the product master i.e. the categories along with the products
this way the product get related with the business partners
best regards

Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses -- Move-in issue

Friends,
Our recent CCS implementation (ECC6.0ehp3 & CRM2007) included the creation of some Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses. Most of these are associated with housing authorities, large developers and large apartment complex owners. Some of the Business Partners have over 1000 address records and one particular BP has over 6000 addresses that were migrated from our Legacy System. We are experiencing very long run times to try to execute move in's and move out's due to the system reading the volume of addresses attached to the Business Partner. In many cases, the system simply times out before it can execute the transaction. SAP's suggestion is that we run a BAPI to cleanse the addresses and also to implement a BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses.
Two questions surrounding the implementation of this code. Will the BAPI to cleanse the addresses, wipe out all address records except for the standard address? That presents an issue to ensure that the standard address on the BP record is the correct address that we will have identified as the proper mailing address. Second question is around the BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses. It looks like this BADI is going to prevent the move in address from updating the standard address on the BP record which in the vast majority of cases is exactly what we would want.
Does anyone have any experience with this situation of excess BP addresses and how did you handle the manipulation and cleansing of the data and how do you maintain it going forward?
Our solution is ECC6.0Ehp3 with CRM2007...latest patch level
Specifically, SAP suggested we apply/review these notes:
Note 1249787 - Performance problem during move-in with huge addresses
**applied this ....did not help
Note 861528 - Performance in move-in for partner w/ large no of addresses
**older ISU4.7 note
Directly from our SAP message:
use the function module
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE or run BAPI_ISUPARTNER_CHANGE to delete
unnecessary business partner addresses.
Use BAdI ISU_MOVEIN_CUSTOMIZE to avoid the creation of unnecessary
business partner addresses (cf. note 706686) in the future for that
business partner.
Note 706686 - Move-in: Avoid unnecessary business partner addresses
Does anyone have any suggestions and have you used above notes/FMs to resolve something like this?
Thanks,
Nick

Nick:
One thing to understand is that the badi and bapi are just the tools or mechanisms that will enable you to fix this situation. You or your development team will need to define the rules under which these tools are used. Lets take them one at a time.
BAPI - the bapi for business partner address maintenance. It would seem that you need to create a program which first read the partners and the addresses assigned to them and then compares these addresses to each other to find duplicate addresses. These duplicates then can be removed provided they are not used elsewhere in the system (i.e. contract account).
BADI - the badi for business partner address maintenance. Here you would need to identify the particular scenarios where addresses should not be copied. I would expect that most move-ins would meet the criteria of adding the address and changing the standard address. But for some, i.e. landlords or housing complexes, you might not add an address because it already exists for the business partner, and you might not change the standard address because those accounts do not fall under that scenario. This will take some thinking and design to ensure that the address add/change functions are executed under the right circumstances.

bill.

Replication of Business Partner from ISU to CRM

Hello,
I am creating the Business partner through 'BP' transaction and it is getting replicating to CRM,
But when I am creating the Buiness Partner through 'Emigall' transaction it is not replicating to CRM.
Also I added the many fields like u2018TIME_ZONE, ADDR_DATE_TO, ADDR_DATE_FROM, TEL_CNTRY, FAX_CNTRY etc.u2019 in the structure of business partner in 'Emigallu2019 transaction,
and the business partners were created successfully in ISU, but it is still *not replicating in CRM*.
Please help me to solve this issue.
Regards,
Darshana

Hi Darshana,
1st step: Check SAP delivery: IS Migration -> Settings -> SAP Settings
CRM_REPL_OFF X X Deactivate CRM Replication (only IS-U)
2nd step: Check project settings (superseding standard setting): IS Migration -> Settings -> Customizing Settings
- if you can't find the parameter CRM_REPL_OFF: standard setting is valid
- if there is a parameter CRM_REPL_OFF: check whether what the parameter value is (space or X)
Kind regards,
Fritz

Synchronization from vendor to business partner is not active?

Hi there
I am busy performing data migration of business partners and vendor accounts and have hit an issue on the last step of linking the uploaded BP to the uploaded Vendor.
On execution of the transaction FLBPC2 (Link Vendor to Business Partner), it issues the error "CVIV_UI015 Synchronization from vendor to business partner is not active" which I believe is a product error because:
1. I have configured BP to a new internal number range (and all other config requirements)
2. I have configured a new Vendor account group with an external number range which is a duplicate of 1. above
3. I have enabled BP to Vendor synchronisation in "Master Data Synchronisation" (from BP to VENDOR).
I have tested my configuration successfully by creating a business partner via transaction BP and extending him to a vendor in a company code perfectly (works like a charm).
My data migration process includes:
- Creating a business partner using BAPI BUSISB990/FSCREATEFROMDATA.
- Creating a vendor using the external number given above using a recording of FK01.
- Linking the two using a recording of transaction FLBPC2 (Link Vendor to Business Partner).
I am not trying to synchonise a business partner from vendor, but to synchronise the vendor via the business partner (which works using transaction BP) when the issue is received.
Any ideas as to why I cannot do the operation manually which works via automation and why the error is not appriate?
Regards
Joe

Good morning,
I had a similar problem and solved by disabling
the integration of the PI / XI of the PPO.
To make sure that the PPO is working properly.
You can check this setting by BUPA_CALL_FU transaction.
Checks if the items are BUPA_OUTBOUND_MAIN and BUPA_OUTBOUND_REL
integration of the disabled for PI / XI, according to the objects you need to be replicated.
If they are uncheck them and rerun your tests.
Use MDS_PPO2 the transaction log to check the copy of BP
to the Vendor.
I hope it helps, Good luck,

Business Partner's Opening Balance Bill Wise

Hi Experts,
We are planning to migrate the Opening balances of Business Partners with Last Year's open transactions reference such that the clients could be able to adjust the payments bill wise .
Is there any way is B1 to transfer the Business Partner's opening balances Bill wise. We don't want to migrate the open transactions as many items codes at bill time are changed now. We are interested in just having the bill wise bifurcation opening balances .
Thanks and Regards,
Pooja Singh.

Hi Pooja,
Hope u r uploading the balances via Opening balance offset account.
Thru A/P service invoices instead of the relevant expenditure account please link the above opening balance offset account and post the billwise openings. asusual choose the relevant parties.
In the invoice ref field give the references of invoices also. that will helpful at the time of payment to that respective vendor.
But you should double ensure that you r having Sundry Creditors - Breakup as Party wise and again bill wise for the parties.
Please dont pass as a JV for bill wise opening balances since you cant make part payments at the time of payment.
So, use the A/P Invoices window for the same. Under that pick the service invoice option even for material invoices.
p.s. if opening balances are 2009-10 create a period as 2008-09.

Wrong business partner entered in the transaction

Hi!
Wrong business partner was used in securities contract and so many postings like valuation has already been executed/posted. Is there a transaction that would allow me to change the business partner used? Or should I perform migration steps by creating new contract?
Would appreciate your suggestion on what's the best way to correct the wrong BP.
Thanks,
Chaikaru

Hi,
Definitely you have to reverse the old transaction, else position show wrongly, and you are forced to reverse valuation as the positions are locked for that key date once valuation is performed, and it is locked with each date as and when you perform valuation. Otherwise, the cash flow managment (TPM13) much capable to adjust the cash flow dynamically once you change any previous period transaction data. So no need to reverse other flows, but to be in the safer side by taking back up of existing flows details to compile the new cash flow after changing the transaction.
If your wrong transaction belongs to long back, better to convince the customer to make a note of that and proceed further without changing it, instead of unnecessary reversals & rectification.

Adding Business Partner as Partner Funcation in Case Managment

Hi,
Happy new year to all,
I am working on migrating an old PCUI applications to the new web client under CRM 6.0 /2007. Our applications developed using CRM Case Management. Since, Case Management does not support partner determination we had to code this using a BADI (to manually inserting a business partner to the case). However, after migrating to the new interface CRM Web Client, this BADI is not called at all. How can I programmaticly insert a specific Business partner to a case.
The codes used under PCUI was like this
BADI: CRM_CMG_CASE_ACCESS
        CALL METHOD IR_ACCESS->add_object_to_rec
          EXPORTING
            iv_anchor         = 'C1'
            iv_search_key     = w_search_key
            IV_PARTNER_FCT    = w_part_funct
          EXCEPTIONS
            failed            = 1
            OTHERS            = 2.
kindly help. Thanks
