Change the account group

Hi
If we create a customer as sold to party and we want to change the account group of that customer (as a ship to party)
is it possible ?? if yes please suggest me how??
Thanks

Hi,
For a new customer you can change account group using XD07, But for any old customer already did postings in that then you cannot able to change account group.
Hope this will correct. Thanks!

How to change the account group of a customer master?

Would like to change Ship-to's to Sold-to's. I know the transaction XD07, but when trying to promote a SH to SP, I receive the error
The planned change is not allowed as the following field groups would be masked by the new account group.
Below the error the table displays Group Name PO Box City and Address.
How do i bypass this and successfully change the ship-to to a sold-to?

Hi ,
Chek out ur new account group for Sold to party ,whether all the fields in address tab is marked either optional /required. It should not be in display /supress mode then only u can successfully change ur SH account to SP account.
I think , Number ranges should be same.
if itz not da same number range system will give the message ,but it will allow to change the account group.
As I successfully worked in this issue earlier.
As we all know, we only change the account group from lower to heigher,
ie. sh,bp,py to SP only not viceversa.

Change customer Account Group

Hi Experts,
We have two different account groups with different number Ranges. When i try to change the customer account group from one to other through XD07 system given the following warning message.
Customer 600021 not in External Sold-to-Party
- number range 0000100001-0000199999
Message number F2691
We have tried to change this warning message in to Error message through OBMSG and OBA5
after that also system showing warning message.
Where we do mistake? is there any other process to do the changing message?

Hi,
If You are trying to change the account group of a customer whose partner function is Sold-to-party.
Changes to the account group and the relevent partner functions only made from lower level to higher level.
Example:
Sold-to-party cannot be assigned the function of a payer(Higher level to lower level) because you are trying to change the higher level partner function.
Your can assign sold-to-party function to a payer (Lower level to higher level) because you are trying to change lower level partner function.

Change vendor account group

Hi All,
Is there anything I need to check before changing vendor account group (with different number ranges) in XK07. User has selected account group wrongly and also posting done for those vendors.
I think there would be no effect in open items.
Thanks,
Vishal

Dear Mr. Visal,
please be so kind to review the documentation regarding the transaction XK07:-
"Changes to the account group and the accompanying partner functions
can only be made from a lower level to a higher level. For example,
this means that a sold-to party cannot be assigned the function of a
payer as fields which have already been maintained for this sold-to
party would have to be masked. However, you can assign the sold-to
party function to a payer."
Therefore, you can change from an account group with fields set as
not visible to optional fields. However, if you are trying to change
an account group with optional fields to other account group with any
of this fields invisible, the system will give you the error message
"You cannot make this change because the new account group
   results in the following field groups being switched off:"
And you will not be able to change the account group. This will happen
although you have not updated a value for these optional fields.
Really it depends on which is the field you want to change; there are
some fields that could produce some data inconsistency (reconciliation
account, withholding tax data, and so on).
Please consider that the account group controls the successing
screens and field layout plus it controls whether the numbering
should be internal or external.
Please take in consideration all the above information before doing it.
I hope this can help You.

Effects of changing Customer Account Group

Hi everyone!
What can be the effects of changing the account group of a customer code?
The customer code that will be changed already have some transactions but we need to change the account group.
Thanks a lot!

Hi Ricardo
Firstly changes in the account group and all partner functions can be made from lower group to higher group e.g. Sold to Party cant be given a payer role as this role is an existing role for Sold to Party
However you can assign the Sold to party to a Payer ..hope this is clear so u can change only <b>Ship to , Bill to & Payer</b>
The only implication which i see is if the customer is created for more than one Company code/Sales Area its better to block the customer until the customer is maintained for all company codes.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Changing Vendor Account group

If the account group was set up incorrectly and did not get noticed until there was master data against the account- what can be done to correct the situation?
Thanks
raj

Hello Rajendra,
You wanted to know what to do so I replied accordingly.
btw, the Account groups determine:
- The type of number assignment (So if the new account group has the same number then I dont think it will impact),
- A number range for assigning account numbers
- Which fields are displayed and whether their entry is optional or required (field status) when you enter or change vendor master data (You need to take care for manatory field for new account group).
- Whether the account is for one-time vendors (I dont think it will get affect)
Rest of the thing will be fine.
Try to change it and see if it throws error for any data inconsistancy.
Hope this helps.

How do i use WGM or dcsl to change the primary groups of users, defined by another group?

i've got a ton of users, whose primary group is "current student". they all belong to the other group "year 13"
they've left school, so i thought it would be easy to do a search of users with GID equal to or containing the GID for "year 13" (in this case 1121) and then change their primary group to "left school"
except that doesn't work. i can only search for them in WGM by primary group, it seems. therefore i cannot do any batch operations on a secondary group.
so. how do i do this? is there a way of scripting dcsl to find users by 'other group' and then change the primary group attribute?
i'm going to need to be doing a lot of this (changing the other gropus of a school full of students). bit stumped.
help!

ok. for some reason neitehr root nor my account (which is part of the open directory admin group) can make changes using dscl.
when addingremoving users from groups, remember that teh UUID has to be added/removed too
this is getting there:
old=year11
new=year12
for item in `dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1/ read /Groups/$old GroupMembership | cut -d: -f2`
do
echo $item
UUID=`dsmemberutil getuuid -U $item`
case "$UUID"
          in
          "There is no uuid for user $item")
                    echo "user $item need personal attention"
                    dscl -u diradmin -P 'somepassword' /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 append /Groups/$new GroupMembership $item
                    dscl -u diradmin -P 'somepassword' /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 append /Groups/$new GroupMembers $UUID
                    if [ "`dsmemberutil checkmembership -U $item -G $new`" == "user is a member of the group" ] ; then
                    echo "$item added to $new"
                    dscl -u diradmin -P 'somepassword' /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 delete /Groups/$old GroupMembership $item
                    dscl -u diradmin -P 'somepassword' /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 delete /Groups/$old GroupMembers $UUID
                              if [ "`dsmemberutil checkmembership -U $item -G $old`" == "user is a member of the group" ] ; then
                              echo "removal of $item from $old failed"
                              else
                              echo "removal of $item from $old succeded"
                              fi

Restricting GL master change at account group level

Hi Experts,
Requirement
To control GL MAster field layout per company code or per account group and per activity.
To restrict GL master change, for certain fields, at account group level.
Let us say, I have activated "Post Auto" in a GL Account during GL creation.
Now while changing the GL, the system should not allow me to change this particular field.
Analysis
This is possible through transaction OB26 (Define Screen Layout for Each Transaction).
However the limitation of the above transaction is that it is applicable for all the account groups for a particular activity (Create/Change/Display).
I do not want to use any development to make this happen.
Please help me in solving this through standard SAP.
Cheers,
Nitish

Hi,
You can make the account group specific field status setting in OBD4.
And you can make the activity specific setting in OB26.
Then SAP will take the field status out of the two above based on highest priority. The priorities are (starting with the highest):
- Hide
- Display
- Required entry
- Optional entry
Fields which are accessed with the transaction master record display are always either displayed or hidden, since you cannot make an entry in a "display" transaction.
If you do not want to use the transaction-specific control, set the field status for all fields to optional. Since this field status has the lowest priority, the account group-specific control is always used.

Gaurav

Changing the material Group in PO -- the GL assignment doesn't change

Good morning,
we have a material group linked to a valuation class.
When we create a service purchase order, we use this material group and the G/L account is automatically updated, but if we change the material group, the G/L account doesn' change.
SAP PARAMETERS
- Material Group 1 is linked to valuation class XXXX
- Material Group 2 is linked to valuation class YYYY
- In SPRO the field G/L account is set on Display (screen layout).
Our user can change the material gruop, but the G/L account doesn't change too and this mistake could generate a wrong accounting document.
We want that the G/L account change automatically when the material group is changed and, if we cannot, we'd like to block the change of the material group (but not in Screen layout, because we are buying service without material master and we need to inser the material gorup).
Thanks for any ideas.
regards

Hi klausj,
Did you find a solution to this?
We have the same issue.
/Thomas

Is there any Impact if we change the Valuation Grouping code.

We have 2 valuation grouping codes
0001 For US plant and 0002 for Europe
For 0001 GR/IR clearing is 200000
For 0002 GR/IR clearing is 200001
We have 2071 plant is there it is assigned only for company code 430.
It is belongs to Europe plant. But they are assigned to 0001valuation grouping code.
Now they want to change the valuation grouping code for CC 430 from 0001 to 0002.
I have verified in OBYC transaction for 0001 and 0002 all the valuation classes and GL accounts are same, exepet GR/IR clearing account.
After changing the grouping code it will change the GR/IR account for CC430.
If you need more information please let me know.
Thanks

BizTak SSO - why I cannot change the Windows Group

For some wired reason I an unable to add / change the "Windows Group" for "SSO Administrators" "SSO Affiliate Administrators(s)".
SSO worked, but stopped working after one of the reboots. I'm sure "Windows Group" was there but now those fields are empty and unable to be edited.

That you don't see anything filled can be caused be the fact that your account hasn't the necessary privelleges.
Are you a local admin on that computer?
You can check in de SSO database what is filled in by the query:
SELECT [gi_SSOAdminGroup]
,[gi_AffiliateAppMgrGroup]
FROM [SSODB].[dbo].[SSOX_GlobalInfo]

Change the account group
