Change business partner code

Hi All,
I have a prospect who wants to have the business partner code of 20 characters, as you may know 15 is the current. Do you know what is the best way to workaround this? He doesn't like the idea of using user defined fields.
thanks to all
Hector

Hi Hector,
You cannot change the length of the Business Partner Code (CardCode) field built into SBO. You need to use another field if that one is not good enough. You have various options and the best is probably to use a user-defined field. You can also use any other field on the BP Master Data which they don't use internally (like Foreign Name for example).
Hope it helps,
Adele

How to change Business partner PERSON in GTS system

Hi,
I have developed an program to create business partner (Person, Contact person and Organization). But now I have to include code for changing Business partner.
I have used BAPI_BUPA_FS_CREATE_FROM_DATA2 BAPI for Person creation. But now I am not finding any BAPI to change PERSON business partner.
Let me know a BAPI or any other way to change PERSON BP.
Thanks
Atanu Das

Hi experts,
I am facing the exact same issue and was wondering:
1. Are there specific authorization objects that I can use to limit access on the web UI based on BP roles? I found authorization object B_BUPA_RLT. But does this work for just SAP GUI or web GUI as well?
2. I have read threads relating to another solution, to use a BADI to alternate configuration views. Are there any other alternative solutions that are purely configuration based?
Vinay,
Could you provide details on which solution you eventually went with to solve your problem?
Thanks,

Business Partner Code when using *

Hi all,
In Business Partner code when the user want's to see all Business Partner and makes "*" appears the BP code, BP Name and Foreign Name.
All user see this information except one that doesn't see the Foreign Name.
Why?

Hi Ad,
Thank you for your reply.
"Foreign Name" is already select in the Form Setting.
You say that "This is a setting per user" but i dont think so. In Form Setting of the "List of Business Partners" i add "Account Balance" to one user and ALL users see the same information.
Best regards,

Regarding Autogeneration of Business Partner Code.

Dear All,
         I have a unique requirement. My client wants autogeneration of Business Partner Code in the Business Partner Master.
         Please guide me in regard to this.
Regards
Hitesh Parsawala

We normally have customer code generated as 'C00001' then 'C00002' etc and Supplier or vendors as 'S00001' and 'S00002' etc. This requires the FMS on the BP Code to be a little more complicated but not over the top.
DECLARE @MAXC as integer
SET @MAXC=isnull((SELECT CAST(MAX(RIGHT(OCRD.CardCode,5))+1 AS INTEGER)
FROM OCRD
WHERE OCRD.CardType<>'S' AND Len(OCRD.CardCode)=6 AND OCRD.CardCode like 'C%'),1)
DECLARE @MAXS as integer
SET @MAXS=isnull((SELECT CAST(MAX(RIGHT(OCRD.CardCode,5))+1 AS INTEGER)
FROM OCRD
WHERE OCRD.CardType='S' AND Len(OCRD.CardCode)=6 AND OCRD.CardCode like 'S%'),1)
--This will give you the next number then
SELECT CASE
     WHEN $[OCRD.CardType]='C' THEN (SELECT DISTINCT CASE
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=5 THEN (SELECT 'C' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar) )
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=4 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=3 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '00' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=2 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '000' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=1 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0000' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
    END FROM OCRD )
WHEN $[OCRD.CardType]='L' THEN (SELECT DISTINCT CASE
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=5 THEN (SELECT 'C' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar) )
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=4 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=3 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '00' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=2 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '000' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=1 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0000' + CAST(@MAXC AS varchar))
    END FROM OCRD )
WHEN $[OCRD.CardType]='S' THEN (SELECT DISTINCT CASE
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=5 THEN (SELECT 'S' + CAST(@MAXS AS varchar) )
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=4 THEN (SELECT 'S' + '0' + CAST(@MAXS AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=3 THEN (SELECT 'S' + '00' + CAST(@MAXS AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=2 THEN (SELECT 'S' + '000' + CAST(@MAXS AS varchar))
     WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=1 THEN (SELECT 'S' + '0000' + CAST(@MAXS AS varchar))
    END FROM OCRD)
END
Try Shift-F2 on the BP code with this FMS

Hi RAMS,
1. Under the SWCV Go to the Imported Objects.
2. Right click on the RFC and click on the Import of SAP object.
3. Give the logon server name, system number the user name and pasword.
4. Select the RFC u want to import.
5. Execute the import and the RFC is imported under the SWCV.
Now u can use this Imported RFC in the scenarios of that SWCV.

IC intermittent SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC error after changing business partner

Hello,
after upgrading from CRM5 to CRM7 (Service for Employee), our Interaction Centre users started getting intermittent SAPSQL_ARRAY_INSERT_DUPREC screen dumps when clicking on the 'Save' button after having changed a partner number in the Partners Table of a Service Ticket.
On encountering one of these screen dumps, the user then has to close their IC session and then restart it - after which it is then possible to successfully 'Save' the same change to the same business partner on the same Service Ticket.
I have not been able to reproduce this error due to its intermittent nature.
Details of the source code extract from the ST22 dump is given below.
Has anyone else encountered such an issue themselves?
thanks,
Martin

Hello Atul,
thanks for your message. I have had a look at the SAP notes that you have pointed me to, however they unfortunately do not relate to the functionality where we are encountering this problem:
1914117 - Relates to Sales (not Service {Employee})
1823316 - This error occurs in the wrong FM (BUR_BUPR_UPDATE) rather than FM COM_PARTNER_UPDATE_DU.
1809361 - Relevant for the SAP GUI transaction, 'BP', not the Interaction Centre which iswhere this error is occuring.
SAP have not been able to help because of its intermittent nature, it is not possible to create this error on demand, and as I am working on a secure site SAP cannot open a remote connection.
thanks,
Martin

Change Business Partner in CRM to trigger OutBound IDOC in R/3 system

Hi Team,
I am stuck on a requirement, We have a scenario were the Business Partner is created in CRM system
which creates a BDOC and is passed to R/3 system through an Inbound IDOC which triggers the Outbound IDOC to PI system. So far good.
The scenario we are getting stuck is when a Business partner is changed in CRM an IDOC triggered in R/3 system but this being a change the Change pointers are not called hence the IDOC which is supposed to be triggered for the PI system is not getting triggered.
Can you please tell me what steps should I take to trigger this Outbound IDOC from R/3 system?
I did some anlyasis and found a table which COM_BUPA_CALL_FU which contains a set of function module which is triggered in the sequence. Is this the solution or if you have any different do let me know.
Thanks,
Imran

Hi,
Did you add the entry for your new custom 'Z' long text inPITX Tcode in R3 side. Every long texts in CRM should be linked to R3 long text here. If there is no entry please add one and try changing the text in CRM.
Hope this helps,
Karuna.

Change Business Partner Number or copy

Hi experts!,
I need to change some business partner numbers or in another hand creates a copy of business partner but different number.
It's possible?
A lot of thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi,
There is no standard way to do this, but you can write a simple report to achieve this functionality.
Moreover - copying is not that simple - e.g. : you can copy the data such as name ,etc..but you still needs to generate a new person number as well ! For this, you need to involve address management also.
Again, you can copy the address data, but you will need to generate new address numbers as well.This also requires Address Management.
The solution is to use a report using BAPIs.
E.g : Fetch data of existing BP using BUPA_CENTRAL_GET_DETAIL.
Remove fields such as partner number and peson number from this ,and feed it to the BAPI BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA. A new BP will be created, with the same data, but new number GID, etc.
Similarly , you need to fetch all datasets and then create them again.
Let me know if you need more info regarding this.
Cheers,
Rishu.

Autogenerate Business Partner Code

Hi,
Has anyone customized the B1 BP Master Data form to enable the system to automatically generate a BP code while in ADD mode? Our client, understandably, does not want to have to refer to a separate list in order to find the next sequential BP number when adding a new BP. It would also be very cool if customer codes could be preceded by a "C", vendor codes by a "V" and leads by an "L".
Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ted

This is the formatted search I'm using. I quite like it

SET @MAXS=(SELECT MAX( RIGHT(T2.CardCode,5)) FROM OCRD T2 WHERE T2.CardType='S')
SET @MAXS=(SELECT @MAXS+1)
SET @MAXC=(SELECT @MAXC+1)
SELECT CASE
     WHEN $[OCRD.CardType]='C' THEN (SELECT DISTINCT CASE
          WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=5 THEN (SELECT 'C' + @MAXC)
          WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=4 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0' + @MAXC)
          WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=3 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '00' + @MAXC)

          WHEN LEN(@MAXC)=1 THEN (SELECT 'C' + '0000' + @MAXC)

CIC0: change Business partner in our workspace.

Hi everybody.
is it possible to set BP of CIC0 , from some custom workspace?.
Thanks.
Message was edited by: Gustavo Navas Sánchez

Hi Johnnie
We have an workspace in which we are going to make "patients" in R/3-ISH, and then we´ll copy in CRM, so we want to change the active bussines partners* in CIC0 to the new one - In the case when we don´t have a valid bussines partners -.
So we want to pass to the BP Search component a BP when we "are" proceeding with any businees and don´t end it.
Of-chance could be end bussines and then confirm the new one.
Thanks.
*For us, a patient in ISH have the same number than a Bussines partners in CRM.

Automatic synchronization of Collection Profile in Business Partner

I'm in the process of implementing FSCM Collections Management in ECC 6.0 single system scenario.
I configured automatic synchronization of customers with business partners. Whenever a new customer is created, SAP is automatically creating corresponding business partners with general and collection profile tabs. If a customer is changed, SAP is automatically changing business partner general data. This process is working fine for general data.
However, I would like system to automatically update business partner collection profile data based on certain parameters maintained in customer master company code view. Is there any BAdI available for this purpose? I do know that it can be done through transactions UDM_BP_PROF or UDM_BP_GRP or enhancing these transactions through BAdI, but I prefer to do it at the time customer is created or updated.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Hi,
You can directly change the Coll specialist in the BP it self

Organizational objects do not create a Business Partner ID

I am setting up SRM org structure with PPOCA_BBP/PPOMA_BBP transaction. I am creating, companies, plants, purchase orgs, purchasing groups and positions and the problem is that SRM is not assigning a Business Partner number to any of those.
I have already checked that there is an internal and external number range setup for Business Partners. Do you have any hints why this could be happening? Your help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
I imagine you would like to synchronize business partner data, which are created in backend, into SRM. You can use Tcode BBPGETVD or BBPUPDVD or run/schedule bbp_vendor_sync (need customizing).
You can create BP:->
1) Either via middleware replication from R/3 to SRM - BBPGETVD.
2) Either manually directly in SRM web transaction - BBPMAININT.

Wrong Suggest of Businer partner code

I have a problem in sales order with approval procedure and inactive business partner:
When im trying to enter an inactive business partner code in the document, suggest me this code and let me create the draft to be authorized. How i can disable this option of suggest.
Im working in SBO 8.8 pl15

Hi Fernando,
an inactive BP shouldn't be in the Choose-from- List unless you are creating a payment document or the document has a posting date outside the inactive period as set in the BP master data (see 1411244 - Master Data Inactive/ Active Enhancements).
The behaviour you describe cannot be reproduced in 8.81 pl004 or 5, so the bug has been fixed already.
All the best,
Kerstin
