Business Partners and Qualifications

My customer is intending to use Business Partners (BUP003 - Employee) to represent resources in the MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) application. My challenge is that I am unable to assign a qualification to a Business Partner (BUP003) using transaction PPPM. I get a message saying "Unable to display a profile for object 'BP'." What is strange about this is that I can assign a qualification to a Business Partner in my company system but not the customer. So far I have been unable to figure out what the difference is between the two systems that might be impacting on this.
The other strange thing I have come across is that in one of the customer systems I can search and display a list of Business Partners but in another, when I search, I get a message telling me that "the search has not produced any hits". In the system "with no hits" I can see the BP record and I can assign it to a Position so I know it's there, I just can't display in in the list. Weird...
I'm a PM/MM person with little Business Partner experience so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
In table T778V, for relationship 032, click on Allowed Relationships on the left hand panel under Links. You will have to uncheck the values in column Not maint. against BP with Q and Q with BP. This will then allow you to maintain qualifications for relationship 032 using transaction PP01/PP02, not PPPM.

Priya.

Mapping Between Business Partners and Customers in CRM and ERP

Hi,
I wanted to know how are the business Partners and Customers replicated from ERP to CRM systems and Vice Versa. I would also want to know how can i check this mapping in the tables.
eg: Get a customer or BP from the ERP system, how do i find it in CRM system.
Regards,
Rishav

Hi Rishav,
Here is how it works.
The table for customers in ERP is KNA1 and the field for customer number is KUNNR.
In CRM the table CRMM_BUT_CUSTNO contains the mapping between customer number in ERP and the BP GUID
in CRM. The table BUT000 in CRM contains the mapping between BP GUID in CRM and the BP Number
Apart from that the table CRMV_BUPA_CUSTNO contains the mapping between Business Partner Number and Customer.
Hope this clarifiies your doubt.
Best Regards,
Shourav.

Incomplete information in report listing of Business Partners and Items

Hi
Our Client requests for Standard reports on Business Partners and Inventory Item Masters records to include all availabe fields that was entered into the Master Profile.
Kedalene Chong

Hello,
I was wondering whether usage of B1 queries could not help to solve this requirement.
Are there any other specific requirements on structure of the report, sorting, filtering, selection criteria, print layout templates?
In which business situation, customer would like to utilize these reports? What are his/her needs?
Thank you.

DTW for exporting business partners and Items

Hi all,
Can any one tell me how to work on DTW for exporting business partners and Items. groups,subgroups and properties feilds are required, iam on pl5
thanks in advance
regards,
kumar

Hi Kumar
For details on the format for the DTW go to your SDK installation folder for SAP Business One. You will find a Help folder and select the file REFDI.CHM
This file will give you help on the DI API which are the rules applied to the DTW as well. Under contents click on the plus next to objects. This will list all the objects (templates in DTW) available. Select an object and look at the members. There is a detailed explanation next to each member that will tell you whether or not it is mandatory and what the SAP field name is in brackets. If you click on a member name it will display more details on that member and under Syntax if you select the member name that is underlined, it will give you a list of options if applicable for that field. For example when clicking on CardType you will see the options are cCustomer, cSupplier and cLid.
Hope this helps
Kind regards

Idoc DEBCOR - Extend use to Business Partners and customise

I am writing a high level technical design document on a new interface for my current client. We are currently in the scoping/blueprint phase.
We will be implementing CRM(?), ECC 6.0 and PI7.0
I have been tasked with writing/creating an outbound interface from CRM/ECC to send Business Partners from ECC to an external application via PI. Preferably using standard SAP functions/transactions!
Can I use the DEBCOR Idoc and customise/add the additional segments I require for the additional fields for this interface?
I was hoping to use BD12 (send Customers - Master Data Distribution) as well, but unfortunately, I do not have a sandpit/development system to use yet as we are still "blueprinting", therefore I am unable to test my assumptions before finalising the HTD document.
If DEBCOR cannot be used is there any logic in use the ADRMAS anc customising this?
I was hoping to use change pointers as well, but I guess once I have the Idoc configured, I can work out the distribution model in BD64..
Has anyone sent Business Partners from ECC and if so, what methods were used?

I am going to try and see if BusinessPartnerDataManagementBusinessPartnerEventOut.informBusinessPartnerAsBulk fits my requirements.

[Special Prices for Business Partners] and [Hierarchies and Expansions]

Dear Sirs,
I am running into three problems.
1.) I loaded 313 items Special Prices by DTW however I can not locate where it went?
I searched via the path [Inventory>Price Lists>Special Prices>Special Prices for Business Partners]but find nothing in there.
2.) I can not find DTW templates for Hierarchies and Expansions data load.
Also I searched via the path [Inventory>Price Lists>Special Prices>Hierarchies and Expansions] to see if the Special Prices I loaded with DTW maybe there but find nothing there.
3.) I can not find any information related to Hierarchies and Expansions in the [diapi] help file.
Could it be these two functionalities require "manual" input?
If so, how on earth the 313 Special Prices DTW data load went through "successfully" and find no trace of it?
I am pulling my hair off to find some advice.
Would appreciate it greatly if someone could enlighten me on these two functionalities.

Hi Kuni,
To quickly answer your questions:
1.) I loaded 313 items Special Prices by DTW however I can not locate where it went?
The path is correct. If you can't find anything probably something went wrong in the DTW import.
Check that the "Test Run" checkbox was not checked and all required keys are entered in the templates.
2.) I can not find DTW templates for Hierarchies and Expansions data load.
The relevant templates are:
SpecialPrices.xlt
SpecialPricesDataAreas.xlt
SpecialPricesQuantityAreas.xlt
the default location when installing DTW is:
C:\Program Files\SAP\Data Transfer Workbench\Templates\Templates\oSpecialPrices
When entering Hierarchies and Expansions (renamed to Period and Volume Discount in Version 2007) you must enter *x for CardCode where x is the price list number.
3.) I can not find any information related to Hierarchies and Expansions in the diapi help file.
The information in the DI API file is under the SpecialPrices Object.
See below some general information regarding special prices:
SpecialPrices is a business object part of the Inventory and Production module under
Select Inventory > Price Lists > Special Prices > Special Prices for Business Partners.
OR
Select Inventory > Price Lists > Period and Volume Discount (Hierarchies and Expansions in previous versions)
Interesting points:
Source table: OSPP
DTW Template: SpecialPrices.csv
Mandatory fields in SAP Business One: CardCode and ItemCode.
PriceListNum is a foreign key to the PriceLists object - source table OPLN, field name ListNum.
CardCode is the Business Partner CardCode to enter Special Prices for Business Partners.
Child object of the SpecialPrices Object: SpecialPricesDataAreas (source table: SPP1)
DTW Template: SpecialPricesDataAreas.csv
LineNum (Field name LINENUM) - Always enter the appropriate LineNumber you want to update (starts from 0).
Child object of the SpecialPricesDataAreas Object: SpecialPricesQuantityArea (source table: SPP2)
DTW Template: SpecialPricesQuantityAreas.csv
LineNum (Field Name SPP2LNum). Always enter the appropriate LineNumber you want to update (starts from 0).
Hope that information helps a little. If you have any fruther questions enter the following information:
1. SAP Business One Version including Patch level
2. Do you get any error message after the import? What is the message returned?
Kind Regards,

Business Partners and Sales Document

Hi experts, I have a quistion for you all. Consider the following scenario: I have one opportunity with multiple sales team members assigned to it as well as multiple competitors. Can I view this information in BW a BW report, e.g. per Opportunity, show me all Sales Team members or all competitors? If so, can I leverage existing PSA's and ODS's? Thanks in advance for your replies, Tiest.

Arun, I am not a BW expert at all but I have various one-to-many relationships on the Opportunity header and it's assigned business partners. Using the standard reporting I should be able to see all Sales Team Members, Competitors or whatever BP Roles I am assigning? Thanks again for your time and knowledge, Tiest.

Change documents optimization Business Partners and Products

Hello guru's
Does anyone know if it is possible for the objects Business Partner and Products to make settings on which changes are recorded in the change documents and which are not?
e.g. I want a change in the field "Last Name" to be recorded in a change document but if a change is made in the field "House number" I don't want it to be recorded in a change document.
Anyone know if this is possible in standard SAP? We are now on 5.2, but will be on 7.0 in a short time.
Thnx for the help!
Joost

Hi, Joost
I think it's possible.
First, Check this program changedocu_read and these tables: CDHDR, CDPOS, DBTABLOG.

Integrating Business Partners and Vendor

Hi,
We are able to get a synchrnization between our HR and Business partner, as and when we are creating a new employee it's creating a corresponding Business partner for that. I also checked that both the employee and Business Partner for that employee are in sync i.e. if we are updating anything using PA20 for the employee it will also get updated in the corresponding Buisness Partner. We achieved this by doing the configuration settings that will link Employee and Business Partner. Now the issue is we want to have a corresponding vendor also as soon as a business partner is created for an employee, so this means that we want to link Business Partner to Vendor. We tried to look in the following notes but still it's not creating a vendor when a Business Partner is getting created.
954816
956054
So can you please help us in this.
Thanks,
Rajatg

Hi,
If the same can be linked through HR and Vendor by giving in the vendor master the employee number the same can be integrated indirectly to business partner and vendor.

Export business event and qualification catalogs to excel

Hi,
I want to either run a report to list all the qualifications in the qualification catalog and export to excel or somehow copy/export the qualifications directly from the qualification catalog to Excel. I would also like to do the same for the business event catalogue. We have the TEM (training and event management) module.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks!

MRS (Multi Resource Scheduling) - Using Business Partners

In a previous (long) thread I had asked about using Business Partners and the problem I was having assigning work to a BP. I keep getting the error message "no work center found for resource". I was told that to fix this problem I was told "... For the work center error, all you need to do is deactivate the work center checks. Yes, these checks make relevance when HR is active. Check the IMG: Sources of Demand -> Orders -> Activate Additional Checks When Saving Order Here you can deactivate the work center checks."
I deactivated the work center checks in the specified MRS IMG item but I still get the "no work center found for resource" error. Any other suggestions?
Mark

Hi Mark,
Oops !! I am sorry ...
The old solution (deactivate the additional check) works only while integration.
You should deactivate here:
Sources of Demand --> Orders --> Control Integration Between MRS and PM/CS
Here, in the frame "Backward Integration" activate "No backward integration" for work center.
This should surely help.

Mapping between Business Partner and BDoc type BUPA_MAIN

Hi Experts,
When creating a business partner system automatically generates BUPA_MAIN as its BDoc type.
Can some one please let me know the mapping between business partner and the BDoc type BUPA_MAIN.
I mean to say how BUPA_MAIN(BDoc type) is getting triggered while creating business partner.
Maximum points will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance
Nadh.R

Hi Nadh,
This is done in SMOEAC transaction where you assign the subscription and replication objects.
You go to SMOEAC and select the object type as Subscription and click on display icon and it displays the subscription ALL Business Partners and when you click on this or expand you find publication and when you expand this you find replication objects and against this you find the BUPA_MAIN bdoc type.
Hope this helps and if so please reward points.
Thanks

Unable to transfer Business Partners from CRM to Handheld

Hi Guys,
I am setting up a mobile environment using ME2.1. The setup has successfully happened and now i am facing a problem on transferring master data from CRM to Handheld. I have done the following:-
1) Assigned the User of Mobile a business partner in Employee role
2) Assigned a position to the business partner at the Sales org level
3) Have done the basic settings for handheld, i.e. created a PPR applicable to accounts, Users and Products (All required business partners and products have been assigned to this PPR)
4) Added all the required business partners as my favourties
5) Created a Business partner as an organisation in maximum possible roles and used the business partner in the reference account while doing the basic settings for handheld.
6) Done relevant transaction type setting for transferring the transactional data
After all the above, now i can see transactional data on the handheld as well as products. However in the business partners tab, i can only see the employee attached to my user-id and nothing else.
Am i missing something out in the customizing? Please help me.
Regards
Ashish Gupta

Hello Ashish Gupta,
unfortunately I can't help you with this problem. But can you give me some Links to Documentation for the Solution you implemented? Was the Documentation correct and usable? We are also currently implementing CRM 4.0 and find many inconsistencies.
