Changing GL master Records

I need your help for the following scenario:
Client needs to change the GL master records to make them into reconciliation account for vendors.
Facts
- All of these GL accounts have posting
- Some of these GL are open item managed while others are not
- All of these are balance sheet accounts
- All of the GL accounts have ' Only balances in local currency' ticked
For GL accounts which are open item managed, I posted a clearing entry into a clearing account, reducing the balance to zero ( in document, local and group currency).
However, when I try to change the settings (FS00) of master record, the system returns the following messages:
- Changing the balances in local currency not possible; acct has a balance
- Changing the reconcil.acct indicator not possible; acct has a balance
The same thing happens when I tried changing the settings for GL accounts, which are not open item managed.
Request you to share your expertise in this context.
Note: Client is not interested in using another GL account because of the way the reporting is structured.
Thanks & Regards

hi Praveen,
-account balance has to be zero (this is what you have done already)
-you have to clear each open item
-' Only balances in local currency' - this could be a problem...
pls let me know if you can proceed further.

How to Change Open Item Management Field in GL Master Record

Hi,
How to change the field Open Item Management becz eventhough I tried through in norrmal way of making it that GL balance to 0 and made the change after that it not allowing to save and throwing the following errors,
Account Balance = 0 but open items exist is the error coming,
Can any one plz advice ?

Hi,
Once transaction data is posted, GL Account cannot be made into an open item managed account. However, you can consider the following options:
1. GL Account Balance is ZERO: If the GL Account balance is ZERO, the GL Master record can be changed to Open Item managed Account or vice versa. But this will not change the transaction data already posted. Only future transaction data will be open item managed.
2. Until SAP version 4.0B SAP has provided a program to convert a GL Account to open item managed account after transaction data is posted (or vice versa). You can execute this program by blocking the GL Account and this will make the required changes in tables and also change GL Master record.
But this program is not available for execution in higher versions. Hence, you can copy the program into a Z Program and execute it. The name of the standard program is RFSEPA02.

Infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record

Hi All,
pls help me what infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record in AP module.
Customer require when Create Employee then system automatic gernerate Vendor Master.
pls help us.
Thanks

Hi,
PRAA works absolutely fine. I have external number range for vendors.
There is an option so that you can create HR accounts in vendor accounts
Path:Accounting> Financial accounting>Travel
management>Personal-Related Master Data> Create Vendors (tr.code PRAA)
Look at this description:
From the HR master data, this program creates a batch input session for
maintaining person-specific vendor master records.
The report can process vendor master records as follows:
o Initial set up (create/add missing company code segment)
o Uupdate (change completely according to vendor and HR reference)
o Change (only according to HR master data, for example, name
Block
The following infotypes from HR master data are taken into account for
the key date specified:
o Actions (Infotype 0000)
o Organizational Assignment (Infotype 0001)
o Personal Data (Infotype 0002)
o Permanent Residence (Infotype 0006 Subtype 1)
o Bank Details (Infotype 0009 Subtype 0 or 2)
All other required data is taken from a reference vendor that you can
specify as a parameter when you start the program. Note that for the
reference vendor, reference data must exist for all company codes that
are applicable according to HR master data. Since program RPRAPA00 cannot
assign vendor master record numbers externally when creating
vendor master records, you must be sure that the reference vendor is
assigned to an account group that requires internal number assignment.
If no house bank is specified in the reference vendor, this is
determined via feature TRVHB (Implementation guide for 'Travel Expenses'
-> Transfer to Data Medium Exchange -> Set up Feature for Determining
House Bank according to the employee's organizational situation.
The link between the HR employee's master record and the corresponding
vendor master record is set up by entering the personnel number in the
company code segment of the vendor master record.
General program flow
Program RPRAPA00 creates a sequential work file in the specified
directory. Ensure that you use a global directory that can be accessed
by all application servers; a directory is automatically proposed. The
work file is later transformed into a batch input session by the
subsequent program RFBIKR00, which is started automatically.
In test run mode this program delivers information messages which
document the creation of a batch input session. Since each information
message must be confirmed manually, the test run should only be
performed for a small number of personnel numbers.
In productive run mode, however, the program RFBIKR00 is automatically
started as a job; the information mentioned above is stored in the job
log in this case.
Initial setup of vendor master records
Corresponding vendor master records are created from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. During the process, the personnel number is stored in the
company code segment of the vendor master record. Persons who already
have a vendor master record with corresponding personnel number are
rejected in this run.
If a vendor master record already exists for a personnel number, but
without a company code segment for the company code in which the
employee exists at the key date entered, the program adds the required
company code segment to the vendor master record. You must however
activate the checkbox "Create new company code segment for existing
vendor master records".
The HR master data used is the info type record valid on the key date
entered.
Update of vendor master records
The corresponding vendor master records are updated from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. Persons who already have a vendor master record with
corresponding personnel number are rejected in this run. The system uses
HR master data from the infotype records valid for the key date.
Change vendor master records according to HR master data
All HR-specific data is changed in the vendor master records for
personnel numbers that have changes since the date recorded under '...
with last change since'. The system uses HR master data again from the
infotype records valid for the key date specified.
Block vendor master records
All vendor master records which correspond with the selected personnel
numbers are blocked for posting.
User exits
For the following situations, two empty routines are supplied in the
includes RPRAPAEX and RPRAPAEX&H5F001 which you can adapt to your
requirements.
o The employee's last name is entered in the sort field in the vendor
master record. If you do not want this to happen, you can program
the situation you want in the user exit routine
'set&H5Fmc&H5Ffield&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If the address editing in the vendor master record does not suit
your requirements, it can also be changed. For this purpose you have
the user exit routine 'set&H5Faddress&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If you want to assign numbers to the vendor master records to be
created via external number assignment (for example, vendor master
record number &H3D personnel number), you can adjust the user exit
routing 'SET&H5FVENDOR&H5FNO&H5FBY&H5FUSER' (in include RPRAPAEX&H5F00). Note
that
the account group of the reference vendor must also have external
number assignment.
Note that in each case a thorough knowledge of the programming
language
ABAP/4 is necessary.
Set up vendor master records in a separate system
The distribution of personnel master data from a HR system to an FI
system is a prerequisite for creating, changing, and blocking vendor
master records.
In the section Master Data Distribution (link to separate HR unit) of
the ALE IMG, an explanation is given regarding the way in which the
FI
System is supplied with the relevant employee data from the HR System
In the FI System, report RPRAPA00 described here can be used to
create,
change, and block vendor master records.
Other wise try with VPE1 t.code.

Problem in Creation of Change Master Record in CC01 (ECM)

Hi folks,
me got a problem. whenever i create a Change Master Record using the transactuion code cc01, Change Master is generated but it is not updated to the database and instead throws up a dump error.
Regards,
maximus.

its due to the number ranges that is specified in the partner determination ... chech what is the number range assigned in the parner determination ,,, so once u check that u have to manually enter the number between that range only .. this should solve ur problem...
path to check the number range is as below :
spro-img-logistic generalbusiness partner-customers---define account groups and field selection ---
at this point click position button at the bottom and give ur account group .. select ur account group and click detail button .. now inside that u can see the specified number range .. dafault is 08 ( means u can specify between 400000 to 499999)..
and some times u may not have defined number range... check urs and create accordingly ... this should solve ur problem...
rewards if solved ..
thank you

How to change Number range to Contact Person in Customer Master Record

Dear all,
We are maintaining contact person details under contact person tab in customer master record.
Currently contact person is being created using VAP1 transaction.
Can we automate this contact person creation by entering the data in contact person itself?
and where can we change the number range of contact person.
I have searched a lot to find the solution for this. Please help me to resolve this issue. Your suggestions will be highly appreciated.
Best regards
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
To your first question: "Can we automate this contact person creation by entering the data in contact person itself?"
Yes, you can enter the contact person directly in the customer master in the contact person tab. A number is generated automatically.
To your second question, go to transaction SNUM, and there use object "PARTNER". Here you can configure number range for contact persons.
Hope this helps,
Regards

How to change the field sequence in Customer master record.

Dear Friends,
We are required to chage the sequence of customer master record fields that are available under different tabs of 'General Data', 'Company Code Data' and Sales Area Data.
Our client requirement is to place all mandatory fields in the first screen of customer master record. Here the intention is to save the user time instead going and clicking multiple tabs/screens to fill information on only one or two tabs. Please suggest us the availabe solution in SAP for this requirement.
Thank you
Raghu Ram.

Hi
Step 1: Take help of a FI guy and:
The fields can be suppressed by configuring through Financial accounting > Business Partners > Customers > Account groups.
Step2 : The challenge inyou project is to have a single tab with the allowed fields
A technical guy can only help you out on this . Again This would be a huge effort since first you need to change the code for customer master. As customer master is a source of data for various documents in SD , at each place you will have to do changes in th code...I don't think it is feasible.
Instead of doing this , create an external interface for transferring the value to SAP through BAPI. this would involve integration and may be as per defined SAP standards you can use CSV files or XML files for the integration process.
This would be a better option than fiddling with SAP system

ECM: Change Master Record in Production Order

Hi
I have created a Change Master Record and made change to the BOM with respect to that change master record.
Now I want the Change master record (Eg. 001) to be visible in the production order (Master Data tab) when the production order is created.
Also, I would like to know if I can change the change master record (to say, 002) in the Production order so that the BOM with respect to that particular Change master record is selected.
Thanks a lot for your help..
Tom

Hi Jack
I think at the time of creating Change master record u haven't maintained the Object types.
In that View u have to maintain Tick at the check box of Actv., Object & MgtRec of Object types-- Bill Of Material & Task List.
This will resolve your problem of Change Master Record Display at the time of Production order Creation at View of Master Data.

Automatic transfer to new cost center is not possible.
You need to use Distribution or assessment to re allocate the expenses to new cost center.

Mass change to vendor master records

Hello,
We have implemented classic extended scenario with SRM5 and will be outputting our Purchase Orders, i.e. email,fax,print from SRM as this is out leading PO.
How do we mass change vendor master (BP) records in SRM as we have not set the output medium in the Business Partner (BP) records and would like to do so with a transaction simalar to the R/3 XK99 Vendor Mass Maintanance transaction. Is their an equivalent one avaiable for BP records?
Thanks. Steve.

Hi Steve,
The send Medium is stored in table "BBPM_BUT_FRG0061" in SRM.
You may try to add the send_medium to the vendor mass maintenance tcode. But, I am not sure whether this is a good practice. Pls try this first in a sandbox...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Execute transaction "MASSOBJ", select BussObj BUS1006 & double click Application tables. Add the table "BBPM_BUT_FRG0061" for BUS1006.
Then double click the field list for this table & add the SEND_MEDIUM & any other key field over which you would want to maintain this field.
Then execute tcode "MASS" for BUS1006 to mass change the send_medium field.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I would always prefer the LSMW mode rather. Let me know how it goes.
Cheers,
Akash
