Business Partner Request / Creation

Is there a standard process available in SAP to request, validate, approve and create Business Partners (Vendors and Customers).
Basically users of SAP or customers or vendors itself can enter basic information like address, Tax ID etc and request the Master data to be created based on whether an ID already exits in SAP or not.
Please recomand which standard SAP product /tool will provide the features with versions (MDM, SRM, CRM or BPM).

Generally, this process falls into the Central Master Data Management scenario within SAP NetWeaver MDM.

Business Partner Mass creation

Hi Experts
We are in process of impementing Service Desk in Solution Manager 4.0. We did one to one user mapping. now we are about to creat Buisiness partner for 9950 users. when we got Transaction DSWP and Click on Edit and Create business Partner and when we select the system PS2 and clicking on drop down so that we can select some user it not let us to do. its saying that Time out. Please find the Log
"Runtime Errors         TIME_OUT
Date and Time          26.03.2008 20:11:19
Short text
     Time limit exceeded.
What happened?
     The program "DSWP_USER_PROPAGATION_TO_CRM" has exceeded the maximum permitted
      runtime without
     interruption and has therefore been terminated.
What can you do?
     Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
     To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
     administrator.
     Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
     at and manage termination messages, and you can also
     keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
     After a specific time, the program is terminated to make the work area
     available to other users who may be waiting.
     This is to prevent a work area being blocked unnecessarily long by, for
     example:
     - Endless loops (DO, WHILE, ...),"
Please tell us there is any other alternative to create mass business partners
Points will be reward for helpful answer

Hi,
Please ask your basis team to change the instance profile transaction RZ10 extended maintenance change the parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time to higher value. The value unit is in seconds. Considering the number of user entries, this requires to be increased. No other way out.
Please keep in mind, you have to restart the instance.
This will solve your problem. Feel free to revert back.

Problem when saving business partner on creation or changing

When i create a business partner in fmcac1 it is taking an eternity when saving. i am also encountering the same problem when saving changes in transaction fmcac2. its hanging when i click the save button but if i terminate the job the changes woul have been made. what might be causing the problem.
When i terminate the process am getting the message as shown below
Dev: SAP System message
Panic: Unrecoverable errors occured

well there are really many possibilities for that.
have you once waited, if the task will finish?
if it does finish i would suggest to do a SQL-Trace with TA ST05.
If this is possible, the performance trace will show you quite by detail where your process time is beeing used.
To find out why so much time is used in that position then is another thing.
But once you got the problem identified you should be able to exlude some reasons like (inperformant selects or such).

Business Partner Auto creation

Hello Experts,
We configured the customer to BP synchronization (CVI_1)
We are able to autocreate BP on creation of customers. However we want to disable the same but only create BPs for only few customers selectively by extending them through FLBPD1.
If anyone could guide us how can we achieve the above? We want the synchorization to remain, BP to get created by data from customer master but manual creation selectively through FLBPD1
Veena

Hi Veena,
I think it not possible to keep the creation of BP as optional.
Once you have activated synchronization from customer to BP, always BP will gets created.
If you assigned any BP role to customer account group then BP will get created in that role or else BP will get created in general role.

External business partner user creation notification

Hi experts,
We are in SRM 7.0. When creating user for Vendor/Bidder (Create contact person with reference) the system automatically sends two emails to the vendor. The first one with the User ID and Contact person and a second mail with the password.
In the body of the first mail says that "to access our system use the following link ://:/irj/portal "
The URL to access the system is incomplete. What is missing so that the system informs in the mail the correct URL to access the portal.
Also, we would like to add some text in the email. How can we do it? What is the form or smartform that we have to use? And what is the BADI that we have to implement to control this?
Many thanks
Ezequiel

Hi there!
Any idea?, what is the smartform and BADI that controls the email output of the New Bidder user notification? (SRM 7.0)
Thanks

Business partner creation error

Hi Gurus,
1) We don't have pre-configured standard settings for FICAx (for ex standard contract categories, document types, number ranges, main and sub-transactions) in our system. Can anyone tell me how to load the pre-configured settings in SAP.
2) In BP creation after entering all the BP fields, if I try to save the data it says the BP has been created but gives a dump. We were not able to find that BP when we try to look up. I am not sure if it is a configuration issue or is it due to improper loading of FI-CA.
3) We have the same issue with contract account creation CAA1, CAA2, or CAA3. When we try to access transaction it gives dump.
The current ABAP program "SAPLBUSS" had to be terminated because it has
come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
The following syntax error occurred in program "SAPLFSP35 " in include
"LFSP35TOP " in

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.

Creation of Business partner from customer

Dear Friends,
I am trying to create business partner from customer thorugh T-code FLBPD1 but unable to do so. Also. whenever i create a customer, a corresponding business partner is automatically created which is not desirable. Rather system should allow me to create business partners from customer separately when required. Kindly suggest any solution for the same.

Creation of Business Partner through IDOC

Dear All,
I have to create a business partner which happens through Idoc of message type DEBCOR. My problem is that though I am getting the IDOC message as incoming type which is also getting processed however the creation of BP is not happening. Since IDOC is also showing in green as successfully processed, I dont have any clue where to check it. Any idea as to what could be the possible problem ?
best regds

IDocs and BAPIs sometimes behave differently than transactions. You might need to add a user exit specifically for IDoc processing. Otherwise send a message to SAP and have them look at it.

Creation of Business Partner with External BP #,ID type and Identifications

Hi Group,
I have a query on creation of Business Partner with External BP #,ID type and Identification # (along with the Firstname,Lastname,Email, Phone & etc.,) things.
the thing is that I was using a BAPI called "BAPI_BUPA_FS_CREATE_FROM_DATA", to create a BP and I was not able to have an option available for these things (External BP #,ID type and Identification # ) along with that BAPI.
So please kindly let me know how these things can be fetched from a BAPI which can accomodate all the above things mentioned.
Please kindly let me know how it can be achieved.
thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vishnu.

Hi Gerhard,
Infact this reply was very useful, but ,while using the BAPI "BAPI_IDENTIFICATION_ADD" while creating the Id type and Id #s, this BAPI was not enabling this.
I was trying to use this BAPI to create ID #, and it's desc, but, this BAPI was returning like "This BP # does not exist" (in some cases) and in some other cases, it is keeping quiet without giving any indication as whether the things have been updated or not... and also when I checked, things were not getting reflected.
your help would be very much appreciated.
thanks & regards,
vishnu.

How to switch off automatic creation of the business partner?

Hello!

Hi,
I have made the following customizing settings to activate customer integration with business partner, but the problem is when I create a BP with a role (FI-Customer) the customer is not created automatically.
1. Set BP Role Category for Direction BP to Customer
Roles: FLCU00 - Business Partner FI Customer (FS: BP)
FLCU01 - Business Partner Customer (FS: BP)
2. Defined the Number assignment for Direction BP to customer
4. Customer account group and numbering is also defined.
3. Created a BP with BP Role FLCU00, I can see the Customer - General Data tab, but no customer was automatically generated by the system.
Kindly let me know if any customizing I have missed.

Delay in creation of idocs after business partner change

Hello all,
In our production CRM system, we had an issue where even though users were making changes/creation of business partners, there was no trigger for the creation of idocs to be sent to the middleware system (connected via ALE to the CRM system).
This happened for a period of 17 minutes and then suddenly idocs started generating for the changes and posted to the middleware system as normal.
There were no resource constraints in the system during that time. We also checked the ORACLE database alert file to see if there were any database issues and found nothing.
The main activity going on that time was the download of product/materials from our R/3 system.
We can confirm that bdocs were generated for the business partner change to be sent to R/3 and those were sent succesfully during these 17 minutes. So only the creation of idocs were impacted.
We are trying to determine root cause as to why for those 17 minutes, idocs were not getting created.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Hello Kiran,
Thanks for the reply. The issue really is why during those 17 minutes idocs were not generated for the business partner changes.
After those 17 minutes, idocs started generating fine (even for those business partner changes that happened during those 17 minutes).
So we are looking to find a root cause for this behavior.
Thanks,
Ramesh
