Contact Person Integration for Vendor Master(ECC to CRM)

Hi,
Just wanted to know if Contact Persons in Vendor Master records in ERP are replicated in standard to CRM in the object VENDOR_MAIN. Dont seem to find any std. documents on this that says it should be replicated?. Any ideas?.
Thanks.
Example:
Go to Tx: xk01 in ERP and maintain a Contact person.Replicate to CRM.Vendor is created as an Organization but no relatonship is created to a Contact Person.Is this a std behaviour?.
Regards,
Praveen

Hi,
The answer as far as I've known so far is that this scenario is not available in standard.
An idea would be to use a new adapter object in CRM. (on a project basis.)

Activate Contact Person Functionallity in Vendor master

Hi Colleagues,
We have an issue with Contact Person functionality in Vendor master, specifically with his activation in order to use that funtion menu (Goto -> General Data -> Contact Person). Actually this command is missing in our system.
Customizing nodes about contact person (IMG -> Materials Management -> Purchasing -> Vendor Master -> Contact Persons) specify as mandatory requisite set the system as a Retail SAP System.
We analized the information and executed report GETSYSDEF and the system showed message SYSTEMSWITCH016 "System is set as a manufacturing system"
Our SAP system is a mySAP ERP 5.0 with component SAP_APPL level 0021.
We have several doubts related above explanations:
Is the system able to be customized as a Retail system without loose or damage some actual component (his functionality) as manufacturing system?
Which is the procedure to follow in order to activate Retail SAP System?
Is enough to make settings on IMG node "Activation Switch for SAP R/3 Enterprise Extension Set" flagging on application "EA-RET" or in other hand, there are other additional or different steps to make?
I appreciate any help you can offer me. Thanks in advance.

Horacio Miranda

Dear Jurgen,
First thanks for your response.
We don´t want to change manufacturing system for retail system, We try to find the way to add retail system to our actual manufacturing system only for get contact person functionality.
We need to use that functionality on vendors at tx XK01 or tx XK02 / MK02, in order to link all vendor contacts making a validation of each one against a table Z containing prohibited values. If a contact person would exist in that table the system would show an error message.
I hope to be clearly in my explanation. Thanks again for your help.

SUS - Contact person creation for vendor

All,
We are at SRM5.0 and using SUS - MM scenario.
Questions -
1. How can we assign SU01 user as a contact person for a vendor replicated to SUS?
2. How can SU01 user id assigned in Org Structure without assigning to any root node?
Information-
1. Vendor got replicated from MM to SUS successfully and got created under vendor group.
2. We cannot use BBPMAININT because standard role SAP_EC_BBP_ADMINISTRATOR is not generated.
3. SU01 - Vendor user id is already created but not assigned in Org Structure.
4. Coming back to Q.2 we need to assign this vendor user id in Org Structure without connecting it to any root node. This will generate the BP for user.
5. Once this is done maybe we can map the vendor BP with user BP via transaction BP or BUP2.
Request for your inputs.
Thanks

Hi Sanjeev and Muthu,
Thanks for the response!
However here is the problem as mentioned in my initial post.
Vendor user id - SU01 is already created which needs to mapped with vendor created in Org Model. Now since the vendor user id is not mapped in Org Model yet, no BP is generated for the same.
If somehow we can assign the SU01 user id in Org Model then it will create BP for that user and after that we can use BP to link vendor with user.
We cannot use users_gen at the moment because the vendor id needs to be standalone without assigning to any node. users_gen will ask for the org unit to which this user should be assigned which we want to avoid.
Create Users transaction cannot be used also since the SU01 id already created.
Thanks

Contact person for vendor master data

Hello,
is there any other functionality for the contact person in the vendor master data apart from the merely infomation purposes?
I mean, is it possible to use it, for example, for selecting a destination for the emails in the purchase orders, etc?
Regards

Hi,
we can maintain alternative e-mail id, Phone Number, Fax Number etc. for a Vendor, go to MK02 ehter the vendor you want to change, in the Basic data view under communication tab page you can maintain all these parameters apart from the one whcih will be marked as Standard for communication.

Assign one contact person to all vendors

Hi folks
We will be using surrogate bidding , I want to assign one contact person to all Vendors , and currenctly in SRM you can only assign one contact person to one vendor , is there a way of bypassing this or of assigning contact person to multiple vendors ?

Hi Warona,
The application works as below:
1. While you access the application, the bidder should be selected for whom the surrogate bid is placed.
2. Then a bid can be placed, although multiple sur. bids are placed for the same bidder, th system will just ower write the previuosly created one (One Bid Invitation - One Bid or surrogate bid for a bidder)
3. Then if you want to submit a bid for a different bidder and for the same bid invitation, you have to go back to the application again (bacause only then you ca select the next bidder). Then the same cycles 1- 3 goes on.
Hopes this solves your problem.

Hi!
You don't need to program the 'translation' from a file into input data for RFBIKR00 yourself. SAP has done this, so that you can do this (nearly) without programming. If you need some special conversion rules, then you can add some coding, but most is possible without.
Have a look at transaction LSMW. It's not so complicated it looks at the first time. Just look at <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/ad/2d54a41d7011d2b42e006094b944c8/frameset.htm">help</a> for the way to use LSMW.
Regards,
Christian
P.S.: sorry for lost your efforts, but you should switch to LSMW

Solved - Group Fields for Vendor Master Records in IMG

This was the solution.
The new field's data element I added to LFB1 did not have the "change document" field checked. I made that change and now that field shows up in IMG.
Hello all,
I added an append structure to the table LFB1. This structure has 1 field. I then created a "Modification-Free Enhancement of Vendor Master Record" to add the new LFB1 field to the vendor master screen, edit and display screens. This is the 3rd time I have done this. So far so good.
Now our functional analyst went into IMG to add this new LFB1 field to a "Group Fields for Vendor Master Records" which we have done 2 other times.
The new LFB1 field does not show up in the list of possible Table-fields.
There must be some other step I am missing.
Does any of this ring a bell? We are on version 4.7.
Thanks
Bruce
p.s.
This is the IMG path for adding 'Field Groups' to vendor master fields.

Edited by: Bruce Tjosvold on Nov 21, 2008 1:18 PM

Hi Vandana,
There are several tables that are contain Vendor Master related data which can be used for extraction to BW. Some of the tables which can be useful for you are:
LFA1 : Vendor Master (General Section)
LFM1 : Vendor master record purchasing organization data
LFBW : Vendor master record (withholding tax types) X
WYT3 : Partner Functions
LFBK : Vendor Master (Bank Details)
LFB1: Vendor Master (Company Code)
ADRC: Addresses (Business Address Services)
ADR3: Fax Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADR6: SMTP Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADRT: Communication Data Text (Business Address Services)
You may use the Data sources mentioned in the previous update from Venky above namely :
0VENDOR_ATTR --- for master data attributes
0VENDOR_TEXTS -- For texts
Since the fields that you are using are from different tables so its better if you go for a Generic Data source where you can use the fields as per your requirement.

Validation for vendor master data creation

Dear All,
Can anybody suggest how to apply validation while creation of vendor master data. As this can not be done through GGB1 as it is ment for document level validation. Please suggest any user exit or badi or validation path for this.
Thanks & Regards

hi,
the enhancement for vendor master is SAPMF02K, you can easily add your own check, pls. check in tcode SMOD!
hope this helps

your post is rubbish, substitutions and validations are in use in document posting, not for master data creation. Even the OP told this, when he asked his question...

Match code for Vendor Master Data on PAN

Hi
Vendor match code will work only if the name are identical. But for the same vendor, user create multiple vendors.
For Ex: If the vendor name is ABC Private Limited, User puts different names like ABC Pvt Ltd, ABC P Ltd, etc.
Hence the match code check is over ridden.
For that reason, i want check on the basis of PAN number.
There is no field for PAN number in match codes field.
Please suggest how it can be maintained

Hi ,
Use the exit SAPMF02K , which is specially ment for vendor master data .
Cheers ,

Upload program for Vendor master Partner Data in XK02 needed info

Hello Experts,
I need to write data uplaod program for XK02 for vendor master Partner functions. ( Basically we created some custom partner functions and attach it to many existing vendors ).
So kindly advice me which is the suitable upload method for this.
1) There is no BAPI available for editing vendors.
2) BDC is not possible because the Vendor partner screen is having table control and some records are already filled. (No of row not fixed).
Is there any IDOC available or any standard input pgm?
Please give suggestion.
Thanks and rgds,
Anand

For the IDOC perspective, you can uses CREMAS.
For the mass maintenance you still have XK99 (which also uses CREMAS internally)
True there is NO BAPI
For the BDC and the table control. Well this is not really true.
In batchinput, instead of maintaining the rows by there Number, you should select it at the first position.
OK-CODE /06 will open a selection screen SAPMF02K 2324. The result of the selection screen goes to the first line of the table control.
Of course this works only in BDC
reward points if helpful
