Automatic creation of Company Code and Sales Area Data for Customer Master

Hi,
We have a organisation structure setup with multiple company codes and sales areas.
A customer will be created using VD01 via the Sales Order VA01. Because the customers are created using VD01 we need to automatically extend the customer for the various company codes and sales areas. The data on these views will be populated using reference customers.
Any recommendations on the best approach (technically) to auto extend the customer master would be appreciated.
I'm reluctant to use BDC's because of performance. We are in a Retail environment.
Thanks in advance
Craig

The sample code has been taken from the SAP notes - in which have the affected as outlined in the example.
The codes does not do what my requirements are, which is to identify the next available number in isolation of the BP type.

Creation of company code

I have created a company code by copying (coppy as ) the standard company code 0001.
While copying it was shown that some of the entries was copied successfully but some of was not .
I have mainted P.org, site , storage location . But while craeting a material for that company code I am having a error as following
"Company code 4000 is not set up for Materials Management

Please suggest what is wrong and also how to create a Company code with all entries.

Hello Anupam Halder ,
This is because you have not activated the Co.cd in Transaction:OMSY
You will find the company co.cd in OMSY and give the Current Year and Period for you co.cd and also Allow Back posting for the previous period.
You issue will be solved.
Hope this helps

Mass Creation of Company Code

Hi,
I am trying to upload 300 company code from another system into SAP. I looked into BAPI but find only COMPANYCODE_GETLIST. I would appreciate if anyone can tell me if there is anyone can tell me if there is any other way I can mass create Company Code in SAP beside LSMW.
Thank you in advance,
Sunny

Sunny,
There is no BAPI for creating this. There is no standard LSMW either. Probably because Company Codes load is done in Config and there are usually not many.
However, you can use the Business Object BUS0002 (Transaction SWO1).
In your SAP system, use this object in a custom program by passing the relevant information to the macros. The method CompanyCode.Create is the one for you. Your program should have this statement:
INCLUDE <OBJECT>.
The <OBJECT> include program by SAP has all the useful macros, such as swc_set_element, swc_call_method etc.
Good Luck,

Restrict PO at company code level

Hi,
We have near about 10 number of company code and lot of plants attached to each company code.
and only one purchase organisation.
Now business require that PO shold be created only for 2 company codes not for all. there are alreday roles available for PO creation .
Now how to restrcit the PO creation at company code level because at plant level it is not possible due to large number of plants.
Regards,
Pardeep Malik

Hi,
Please kindly be informed that the following authorization objects are checked when an Enjoy purchase order is created (activity 01) or changed (activity 02):
- M_BEST_BSA (document type in PO)
- M_BEST_EKG (purchasing group in PO)
- M_BEST_EKO (purchasing organization in PO)
- M_BEST_WRK (plant in PO)
So this is somthing you can not solve by only using roles. You will need as suggested to make the check in the BADI.

No company code data available in XD01

Hi All,
I'm facing a issue in XD01 transaction code.
In my current client process of creation of customer is first Master data team is responsible for creation of General data segment of the customer once general segment is created it comes to SD user who is responsible for creation of company code and sale are segment. SD user donu2019t have authorization to create general segment u2013once general segment is created by MDM then only system will allow to create other segment by SD user.
In production system when SD user use XD01 to create company and sale area segment that user is not able to see Company code segment and user is calming that earlier they are able to see company code segment. I checked with S&A team as per them there is no changes in roles and authorization for that particular user since beginning.
So to test what is the problem I requested S&A to create a test id in quality system with same role and authorization what SD user having in production system. I asked MDM to create a customer but when I (I mean test user created in Quality system )try to use XD01 to create other segment then system through a error saying u201CCustomer 830587 has already been created company code NLYQ sales area NLYQ SV PHu201D. Mean system is not allowing me to enter inside through XD01 because customer is already created but user is able to enter through XD01 in production. How it is possible Iu2019m using same roles and authorization what User having in production system. if in production user is able to enter then with help of test id it should also allow to enter inside XD01 in quality also .
I checked SU53 also even I asked S&A to activate tracing on Test id in quality so that we will find missing authorization during my testing in su53 and log we found nothing.
So just wanted to know how it is possible or how I can get company code data in production system for that particular user.
Thanks
Prakash Sharma

Dear Madhu ,
Yes user is giving company code in selection parameter and there is BDC for creation of Customer. MDM is using that BDC for creation of general segment of customer

Vendor Master Creation through IDoc with Multiple Company Codes

I am trying to create vendor masters sent from a 3rd party into SAP using CREMAS05 IDoc. I have the requirement that the vendor should be created in each of 3 company codes and the vendor number is internally assigned in SAP.
I create my IDoc with the general data E1LFA1M and multiple E1LFB1M & E1LFB5M Children. When I post the IDoc using IDOC_INPUT_CREMAS which uses Call Transaction, the vendor gets created for the first company code, but the IDoc errors on the vendor extension XK01 for the next company code with the error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02K 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1".
In debugging through this, it appears that the vendor number that gets created in the first XK01 transaction does not get passed into the data for the second XK01 call and SAP tries to create a new vendor instead of extending the newly created one.
If I force the value in during debug after the initial call transaction into the variable h_lifnr, it works fine (Vendor created with multiple company codes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-Larry

I cannot give you exact solution, but can guess why this is happening, below is what I believe.
I think Synchronous update is not happening in call transaction, second transaction is getting processed before the first one is saved, debugging it works fine, because we give system enough time to save while processing.
Generally in call transaction we have MODE, if we pass S - then synchronous update happens, in your case, you need to find the way to incorporate this.
Hope it helps.

Creating Company A as a Vendor(XK01) in Company code B.

Hi Experts
Can you explain the process of creating Company A as a Vendor(XK01) in Company code B.

Rajanikanth K

hi Rajanikanth,
the usual process is to set a up a separate number range for intercompany accounts (usually externally numbered), than you just create vendors in that number range. After it is done, you'll just <i>know</i> that specific vendor in Company B represents Company A. There is no way, that the system will know as well. Probably there is some way in Consolidation Module, but not in basic FI.
hope this helps

Prevent creation of a PO to a non company code Vendor

Hi,
We have had a scenario where we have been ableo to create a purchase order to a vendor that doesnt exist in that company code. The purchase order will let you Goods receipt this also and will only cause a problem upon invoicing it.
Since a Purchase order is considered a legal document we believe we should be able to prevent PO being saved if the vendor used does not exist in the company code selected in the PO header data.
I can see why sap allows it as you put in the vendor before the company code is entered but can we prevent this being saved or a message coming up on the system when this combination is entered?
Thanks

Hi Tracey Sparry,
This can achieved as below.
An organizational unit in Logistics, subdividing an enterprise according to the requirements of Purchasing.
A purchasing organization procures materials and services, negotiates conditions of purchase with vendors, and is responsible for such transactions.
You specify the form of procurement by assigning purchasing organizations to company codes and plants.
Possible forms are:
Enterprise-wide: One purchasing organization procures for all the company codes of a client - that is, for all companies belonging to a corporate group
Company-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one company code
Plant-specific: One purchasing organization procures for one plant
In this way you can assig purchase orgnization to company code which is not necessary but in you case it is necessary so when you are creating vendor with purcahse org and company code it will establish link when you are creating purchase org and company code it will not not allow to proceed further it gives error that xxx vendor id not defined in company code and purchase org and stop further to save PO.

Can i assign one vendor to more than one company code how?

General Data will be available at client level so that u can use the vendor across company codes just what u need to do is that u have to give the company code data when ever u r creating for a new company code.

One vendor for two company codes

Hi Frds,
I have two company codes and i create a vendor which is applicable to both the company code.Is it required for me to create separate Payable reconciliation GL account for each company codes or creation of one common recco account is enuf.
Please elaborate on this as am new to this..
Thanks,
Rashmi Ravi

Dear all,
SAP allows You to create a customer / vendor master data that contains information that is valid for all the Company code --> into General data.
Then there is a part, Company Code data, where You can define specific details for each Company Code.
The transaction is the same FD01 or FK01.
I hope this helps You.

Company code creation...what option is better?

Hi Gurus,
My client has an existing company code in US and the parant company code abroad. They have now acquired another company is US. I need to decide whether we create a new company code for the new acquired company or do we just merge the acquired company with the existing company code in US.
What are the pros and cons of merging vs, creation of a new company code?
Note: Using FI-Consolidation is out of scope.
I am not sure how the FI entries are transfered from the legacy system to the new company code or merged with an existing company code.
Would appreciate any insite and links on such a topic.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Sunny this is a very wide question.
Here are some questions to consider.
Do you need to show the new company code as a seperate company code?
Can they use your Chart of Accounts?
Is the new company keeping its name?
Have you got any common master data, customers, vendors?
When will you be making the transfer?
Do you use ERP 6.0? If you did not want to create a new company code you could use document splitting.
You can copy your US Company Code, and then extend any common master data, GL accounts, Customers Accounts and Vendor Accounts?
Are you buying all of the debt from the new company, if so you will need to keep the debt seperate to that of your current debtors.
Hope some of this helps.

PO vendor not in company code

Hi,
We have two company code in SAP, these two company codes share the same purchasing org. For one vendor exist in company code:A, not exist in company code:B, it is still successful of using this vendor to create a PO of company code:B.
It is stranger, is this a SAP standard behaviour? Any customizing to stop this?
Thanks

Yes, because at the time of PO creation, it just checks the purchasing organization data in vendor master.
In your case, same purchsing organization is responsible for both the company code, so PO creation allows for both company code
If you want to restrict the PO creaion for other Company code then create a seperate Purchasing Organization for other company code.

Gaurav

Check for Company Code & Vendor Relation ship before a PO is saved

Scenario ,:
If the Vendor doesnt belong to the same CoCd as SAP accepts in this stage the PR/PO , the problem will not appear at this stage og MIGO but will appear after the goods have been received and then it will appear when we want to enter the invoice SAP will not accept .
Any suggestion / work arounds to put a check on this ....
Satish

Dear Satish,
Your problem is vendor is created at Porg level but not at company code level.
In SAP, we have 3 transactions to create vendor
MK01 - Purchase Organization level - (purchasing people use to create vendor)
FK01 - FI views - Finanace people create
XK01 - Centrally - Comapny code level.
If vendor is created with MK01, sysyem allow the PO, GR but not IV as the vendor still not exist at company code level
If you create with FK01, you can do FI transactions but not Purchasing.
Here co-ordination is required between the MM and FI departemnts. If any vendor required by both MM & FI, after creating it should be informed to other department.
SAP given this for the flexibility of authorizations and flexibility.
Thanks,
Krishna Reddy

Vendor No# is not in Company Code, but SAP allow to create PO ?

Anybody know how to prevent user input incorrect company code in PO when vendor do not exist in the company ?
Thank you

from FAQ note 491789
Why can I still change the company code at header level of the purchase order although follow-on documents (goods receipt, invoice receipt ...) already exist?
Answer:
In the purchase order there is a company code at header level (field EKKO-BUKRS) and a company code at item level (field EKPO-BUKRS). The company code at item level is relevant for the update of the FI and CO documents. This company code is always derived from the plant and therefore you can no longer change it.
What significance does the company code have at header level of the purchase order?
Answer:
The local currency and the corresponding conversion factors are determined from the company code on header level, as well as the VAT registration number (VAT reg.no.).
for PO creation the vendor does not need to have the company code data views maintained. This speeds up the process, you can already order while Accounting has not finished the data maintenance. CC data is first time needed when you like to process goods receipt and invoice receipt.
