Business Partner relationship replication issue.R1781

Hi Experts,
I am currently modifying BP in ERP and in that I am changing Partner function. So when I replace any existing partner for any given partner function and save ( in XD02) a Bdoc travels to CRM. That BDoc is failed to process and in SMW01 I can see it is in error. When I open the error segment I see 'Partner XXXXX already has the maximum number of relationships possible'.Message no. R1781.
Is it some config issue of BP relationship or there is any OSS note missing or there is anything else?
Kindly help.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
When you create a Partner Function on the R/3 side
(in XD02), a relationship (sales area independent) is created along with
the Partner Function (sales area dependent) on the CRM counterparts. But
when you delete this partner function on the R/3, the corresponding
partner function is deleted from the relationship data of the bp on the
CRM system but the relationship itself is NOT deleted.
That's standard, as explained in 490454.
To correct the error, please also check note 497146 - this should help you.
Best regards,
Brian.

Business Partner relationships issue

Hi All.....I am creating Business Partners in Partner Financial Systems.
When I go to Relationships screen, where I can create, display, change and delete the relationships for the BP.
I want to control the create/change/delete functionalities when I open the Business Partners in display mode.
Please suggest how we can handle this functionality?
Regards
Ram

Hi Shwetha,
In the partner determination procedure the partner functions
- 00000003 Bill-To Party (CRM)
- 00000004 Payer (CRM)
both have the access sequence 0005 (Preceding Document -> Business
Partner Relationships: Sold-To Party -> Current Partner: Sold-To Party.)
The access sequence looks like this:
10     COM_PARTNER_A Preceding Document
20     CRM_PARTNER_A BP Relationships By Sales Organization
30     CRM_PARTNER_C Business Partner Relationships
40     COM_PARTNER_C Current Partner
I created my own copy of this access sequence (Z005) and removed step 40.
This did not help. Was this what you had in mind?
Kind regards,

Business partner relationships in order entry

Hello,
I have an issue with the business partner relationships. I have replicated the customer master data from ECC to CRM. In ECC the partner functions look like this for customer 100457:
SP     Sold-to party          100457
BP     Bill-to party          100000
PY     Payer               100000
PE     Sales employee          1026
SH     Ship-to party          100457
SH     Ship-to party          100439
ZE     Employee for mail     E1026
In CRM for BP 100457, the following business partner relationships exist:
Has the Bill-To Party          100000
Has the payer               100000
Has the Sales Employee          9000000621
Has the Ship-To Party/Recipient     100439
Has the Employee for Mail     E1026
The problem is that when I create a sales order in CRM, I receive a pop-up where I have to select the Bill-To Party and the Payer. I can then select partner 100000 or 100457.
When entering an order in ECC, partner 100000 is selected automatically as Bill-To Party and Payer. I would like CRM to work the same way. Do you know if this is possible?
Kind regards,
Johan Wigert

Adding fields to business partner relationship

Hi Experts,
I'd like to add some new fields to definite business partner relationship type.
What I've already done is:
In EEWB I've created an extension for the object BUPR with type ADD_NEW_ATTRIBUTES_TABLE "Add New Attributes". In wizard I've choosen Cardinality as Single Instance and after that added two fields.
With some problems (syntax error in generated Z-Function Group: different numbers of parameters in FORM and PERFORM, which was corrected manually later) I've finally creaed this extension.
Everything looks fine in GUI: my new fields were added and work perfectly.
Next step, where I'm right now, is to add this new fields to WebUI.
It seems that EEWB didn't create the extension of BUPR in the same manner as for BUPA, cause I can't see my new fields in Configuration for BP_DATA/AccountRelationshipsEF view right out of the box. But instead I can see a new BOL-object with my new fields in BOL Model Browser as a dependent object of BuilRelationship.
Could anybody provide me with clear and understandable help for this?

Please, anyone can help?
Thanks!!

Enhancement of Business Partner (Relationships) using BDT -Bus Data Toolset

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement from my customer enhancing the Business Partner Relationships using BDT.
I should add 2 fields namely salary, employer start date in the Business partner Relationships, it must be added in the characteristics of relationships as one employee can have multiple employers and vice versa.
If I would like to add the fields in Business Relationships using BDT, are the steps same as adding fields in business partner? or do we need to perform any other steps? Did someone already did this type of modification, please provide your suggestions.
After adding the fields is it possible to cusomize the fields for history of the changes? e.g. if salary field has been newly added and after creating a BP after some days I want to change the salary and for the changed salary I want to have a history.
I would appreciate if you can help me with your suggestions.
Many thanks and best regards,
Afroz

How to create the Business Partner Relationship

Dear Sir,
I would like to add the new Business Partner RElationship , but I don't know how to do . Please kindly advise me the step to add the new business partner relationship.
Thank you and best regards,
Vimol

Hi Vimol,
BP Relationship can be created in the Tcode - BP.
Eg: If an Org, say SAP is defined as a BP (Org), and now u need to define some relationships for this org, say the Contact person, Employee responsible etc., then we nd to first create the separate BP's, for eg Contact PErson for SAP Org is Vimol S, then create Vimol S as an individual. and after doin this go to SAP Org BP and there click Relationship tab, on the TOP RIGHT hand side of the screen. Here it'll ask for the BP no. and the relationship u need to assign b/w this BP and the Org. There will be many relationships, choose the one which suits your requirement. This will take care of it.
I hope my explanation and steps are clear. Pls revert if any isues.

Deletion/Change of Business Partner Relationship

All,
We are having a issue regarding replication of partner relationship changes from R/3 to CRM. Partner deletions/changes in R/3 are not replicated in CRM. We do not do any customer master changes in CRM.
If a Ship-to is deleted in R/3 the BDoc comes in and posted successfully in CRM but deletion of partner does not happen in CRM. Also noticed that the BDoc has TASK = "M" instead of "D". If I manually change it in the debugger (in R/3 Plug-in FM), the relationship is deleted. Is there any customizing entry I need to maintain to replicate this change from R/3 to CRM.
Also, the changes are not replicated if a relationship is changed from one Ship-to to another. The BDoc is posted successfully, the new ship to is added but the previous one is not removed.
Any insights would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

What email d you have permission for in a Business Partner relationship?

This may not be a typical 'Imagine It' topic, but I wasn't sure where to post it otherwise and I did see some legal-related topics in this section.
So let's imagine, that you need to communicate with Business Partners of whome you do initially receive an email address to communicate with about business/relationship relevant topics and sometimes even legally-required information, such as product updates or portfolio phase ins/outs. However, at some point you find that this email address is not valid/used anymore and you do actually have another email address for that Business Partner contact.
But that business partner contact has not opted-in/subscribed using that email address.
Are you allowed to use that other (valid, but not opted-in) email address for your business partner relevant communications?
I am in doubt, because there is no specific opt-in for that new email address, but I think most laws do allow e-mail sending if there is an existing business relationship and the content of the email is relevant to that relationship.
Best regards
Roger

If contact name is same and just email has changed then you should be able to have their record updated and keep same permission values but again it should checked with your legal team.
Normally BPs do get all strategic and exec comms and they cannot unsubscribe from it (this is normally defined in the contract during on-boarding)...however they do have choice to unsubscribe from all other types of comms, which is normally managed through preference center.

Business Partner relationship assignment

Hi experts,
we have a slight problem in CRM. We are working with 4.0 and connected R/3 4.7c.
We enter BPs in CRM and transfer them to R/3.
Two Problems:
1. in the BP Role "Customer" we want to set one Partner Function (relationship) "Has Employee Responsible" as mandatory, so that as soon as someone create a new customer he has to maintain also this relationship.
How can I do this?
2. In BP role Customer, because of R/3, we have 3 additional relationships categories like "Has ship-to party" ans so on... If e.g. the ship-to party is different to the customer itself, we have to maintain it.
In this case we have to ensure that the sales area of the alternative BP as ship-to party matches with the sales area of the customer. Currently I can enter some BP independent to the sales area, while transfer to R/3 it does not work, because R/3 does check it.
Any solution?
Thanks

Hi Abbas,
Problem No. 1.
As per standard CRM
Cross-Application Components SAP Business PartnerBusiness Partner Basic Settings Field GroupingsConfigure Field Attributes per BP Role
In role customer and you will get data set CRM partner functions. Here you can make partner function mandatory by selecting required entry radio button. But this will only make one partner function mandatory and will not specify which one. In your case you want Has Employee responsible.
Hence you will have to write BADI which can make this particular Partner function mandatory.
Problem No. 2
Here again as per the standard CRM its not possible be have a check on the sales area of the partner function you are entering, because you select the sales are first and then enter the partner functions. Thus if you maintain multiple roles you can select different sales area for these roles and can enter partner functions in these sales areas. Thus there is no control or check on the sales area of the business partner and the sales area of the partner functions.
Hence you will have to write BADI which should check and match the sales area of the partner functions (which are maintained in same sales area in R/3) and the sales area of the BP. If they are different then it should give the pop up message to that effect.
Hope I have answered you. Please let me know if this helped you resolved your query.

Dinesh

Business Partner Relationship

Hi All,
I have requirement when in I need to store single value fields, multi-value fields and also standard BP fields (like Address, telecom) within a BP Relationship.
Requirement: A student and university are two business partners. Student and university are linked by a relationship call qualification. Attributes of the relationship are Degree, receive date, location. Standard BP address fields need to be used for location.
I have an idea/knowledge about how to store single value fields and multi-value fields as a relationship attribute.
Question: How to use the standard BP address fields as a relationship attribute. Does anyone know any BAPI that can be used to store the address without the business partner?
PS: BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD, BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_CHANGE BAPI requires Business partner as input fields,
Thanks,
Raghavendra

Hi,
As far as what I know there is no BAPI provided for relationships other than contact person, employee and shareholder for which you can assign address for relationship.
For contact person relationship there is a BAPI BUPR_CONTP_ADDR_CHANGE
etc.
Thanks and warm regards,
Smita.

PdOrg, Business Partner to Business Partner relationship

Hi All,
I need to create an MI hierarchy that is simply an hierarchical series of relationships between business partners. I do not want to use the relationship tab on the the business partner itself as I want to export this data to an MI system and also want to see it in a tree display in SAP PDOrg.
All my BPs exist in the SAP Business Partner. Do I need to create Org Unit to Org Unit relationships and attach a BP to each Org unit or can I just create BP:BP relationships.
I already have another hierarchy in the system for commission calculations.
Any help appreciated, cheers Neil

Hi Stephen,
You can do the same in transaction BP.
Select Business Partner with Employee Role --> Goto Identification tab.
There you can maintain the PERNR and SY-UNAME.
Let me know if this helps.

Vivek Pandey
