Customer master information

Hi.
I have an question about Archiving Billing Invoices.
When our business is sending invoices to costumers we have discovered that there has been a period where these did not has been archived. We have tried to reprint but that shows the problem. Customer Master Data has changed and that is against the law.
Does anyone have a solution for using the past Customer Master setup?

unfortunately you cannot do it !!
I also had this problem, and I opened some OSS messages but SAP told us that no date-dependent customer master data is supported.
So you have to go back to customer master, check for the changes, restore them manually, print/archive the invoice and then restore the customer master data to the new one. While doing this stop all activities like order entry, delivery and billing.
The best way to prevent this problem in the future is to create customers with 2 account groups, one for sold-to and one for bill-to. When the customer data change, then simply create a new bill-to and set it in the customer master of the sold-to as a payer, and then block the old one. New documents are ok, and the old ones too, because they refer to old payer.

Extracting text from Customer master information records

Hi,
I want to extract the details of texts from the customer material information record (Tranx: VD52). All the input data like Sales org,Distribution channel, Customer number and material number are stored in structure MV10A. How to use this data to extract the relevant text descriptoins in the customer-material info records.
Thanks for your response.

No problem, we can concatenate all four in one field.
First you need to declare a variable G_NAME(70) type C.
Then use syntax
CONCATENATE SALES ORG DISTRI CHANNEL CUSTOMER MATNR INTO G_NAME.
Pass this G_NAME to the function module.
Also you need to use Conversion routines to get correct Customer and Material No.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'
     exporting
          input        = MATNR
    IMPORTING
         OUTPUT       = MATNR
    EXCEPTIONS
         LENGTH_ERROR = 1
         OTHERS       = 2.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
     exporting
          input   = KUNNR
    IMPORTING
         OUTPUT = KUNNR.
Use above 2 routines before you do concatenation.

Customer Master Conversion LSMW RFBIDE00 and SAVEREPLICA

Hi All,
I was able to create both the customer master information using RFBIDE00 and customer address using BAPI_ADDRESSORG_SAVEREPLICA.
After creating them, I assumed that they should have the same ADRNR number in tables KNA1 and ADRC. But they were not the same, even though I've passed the same external customer number.
May I know if this is really how SAP do it? How can I get the ADRNR in ADRC be the same as KNA1?
Thanks,
Kevin

Report to fetch the text information from customer master sales data

Dear Experts,
We have come up with a requirement where the business want a report/list of the customers for whom a particular text is not maintained in customer master -sales data.
There are many Z text id are configured and are maintained in Sales data- extras- text. In addition, business also need some key fields from the customer master such as name, city, delv plant, payment terms, sales off, sales grp etc.
I could not get any standard table where the text is maintained with the customer numbers. Table STXH can give the customer numbers for a particular text id type but what is maintained against the given text id is not fetched from the table.
So we need the valuable inputs to realize the requirement.
As an proposal, we are aiming to develop custom Z report with the FM READ_TEXT to get the text information with the customer no ( object type KNVV and text id ). But for the additional information, what should be the actual logic for fetching the data. say if this FM is used, what should be the sequence of the logic and ideal selection parameters.
In addition, we aim to use BAPI BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL2 to fetch some of the customer ifnormation but many fields are not found in this . can we use some other bapi which can provide the complete general/sales data of customer ( delv plant, sales off, sales grp, custo grp, incoterms, payment terms etc)
Kindly suggest accordingly.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Dharmendra Kumar,
I guess the best would be to check in ABAP General forum on the READ_TEXT sequence/ logic etc..
For customer details, the available BAPIs are:
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL1
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL2
However, you might have to check classes in SE24 to find any existing classes and its method yo give you all the information of a customer. Also check this thread: [BAPI for customer details like in IDoc DEBMAS;

Missing Tax information of Customer Master data

Dear all,
I have an error with Customer Account Group. I create a customer account group as Z001 (Domestic customer). After that, I go through Financial Accounting - Account Receivable and Account payable - Customer Account - Master Data - Preparation for Creating Master Data -Define Account Group with screen layout (customers) (also with Define Screen Layout per activities). And for Control Tab, I set all items are optional. But when creating Customer master data for this group, when going to SALE AREA DATA, Tab BILLING DOCUMENT, I found that the Tax information part is missing.
I try to set all items are optional, but can't resolve this problem. Can you help me ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Sylvecat.

Customer Master Text Information !!!!

Hi Folks,
I have a quick question on the maintenance of the Text at Customer master records. The question in paint here is that;
1. Can we use bring the free text maintained at Customer master level in the different reports like SQVI, ABAP reports?
2. Is there any standard report by which you can pull the text maintained at customer master level (General, Accounting and Sales area text)?
Please do let me know and if yes can you please provide me the transaction code and data base tables for this.
Thanks and best regards,
Sandy

Sandy,
I will give you example using function module READ_TEXT. You can test this by running this in SE37, hit the test icon. Parameters to be filled in as follows ...
-> Client, e.g. 010
-> ID, the text ID in your text procedure, e.g. 0001 or Z001, etc.
-> Language, e.g. EN
-> Name, e.g. the text name, can find this in table STXH-TDNAME, in my example it was the customer number, e.g. 0000105036
-> Object, e.g. closely tied to the 'Name', in this example as I was dealing with customer text at general data level, e.g. KNA1 (table)
The result here is that I am asking the function module to read text object 0001 associated with customer 105036 at the general data level of the customer for language key EN.
So, need to understand what level you have your text stored at. General data (KNA1)? Company Code (KNB1)? or Sales Area (KNVV). This will define your 'Object'. You can pick up the text ID from your text procedure, and you will no the text name via the customer number. You can double check most of this in table STXH first before you test example in the function module.
Once you have working example, you could then relay spec to your ABAP team to build program with selection screen that runs this function module. I do not think you can achieve any of this via SQVI or SQ01. There are calls to includes inside of the function module, and I believe these includes are performing the reading and converting the 'Data' in table STXL.
Review with your ABAPer, and let me know if you need more. Just revert back.
Thanks,
Jay

Report for abserving changes made to the customer master and moniter

Report for abserving changes made to the customer master and moniter and detail
Please send with t. code.

Hi Dhari,
Well the requirement seems very simple but its not as simple as it looks.
i have an idea not sure whether it gonna work or not. you need to build a history cube as if i understand your requirement then for any selected period you wanna see the change in wage type or pay rate for each employee if any.
1. pick up an cube that builds on emp transaction data.
2. add the 0empoyee Md, wage type and pay rate from MD to the cube and fill the cube
3.so now every day or in scheduled time interval the MD will load and the corresponding the TD will be loaded to the cube.
4. create a info object say indicator and add it to the cube
5.while loading the data to the cube everyday in tranformation check if for same employee there is a change or not in the wage type and pay rate. If so set the indicator to 1.
4.now build one more cube for holding the changed records from this cube and call it say zhrchange
5. now pull the date, year and related emplyee information for the emplyee to the zhrchange for those with indicator 1.
6. before the next load happen, rememrbe to set the indicator to 0 before checking the conditoin in the transformation routine , so that only if the conditoin satisfy then only it will be 1 else it will be 0.
now the cube zhrchange has all the changed records with time stamp and you can base your query on that to get the changed values in specific time period
hope this helps.

Deleting a Contact on Customer Master with that Contact on Open Sale Orders

Our current SAP system ECC 6.0 allows a user to delete a Contact from the Customer Master where that Contact is also on Open Sales Orders.
Then when our create delivery job runs, it abends saying Contact record not found.
How is this normally handled ? Are users not suppose to delete Contacts from the Customer Master if they are attached to an Sales Order ? Is there some config to turn on in SAP that checks for Open Sales Orders before deleting a Contact in the Customer Master ? Do I code this check in User Exit on the Save in the Customer Master and not let user delete the Contact if it's attached to Open Sales orders ?
Would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
David

Deleting Partners from the Customer Master that are on Open Sales Orders.

Does SAP handle removing the Partner from Open Sales Orders when a Partner is deleted in the Customer Master. For us, this is not happening, this there some config that must be turned on for this to happen ?
Or do we have place in code in a User Exit in the Customer Master to check for Open Sales Orders and if so, block the Deleting of the Partner ? If so, what User Exit should be used ?
Looking to see how others have handled this.
Thanks,
David

ERROR IN CUSTOMER MASTER CREATION -THROUGH IDOC.

We are facing issue while creating customer through idoc. System is giving error "No batch input data for screen SAPLID_TAXNUM 1000 "
On analyzing this error - we are able to find out that someone has enabled some duplicity check or message control on filed of tax number 1.In this filed we are storing some other legacy information which is not unique to each customer so system is poping up some screen which shows that this information already exist for other customers . Due to this customers are not getting created.
We have checked the message control setting bur there was no such message control.
Now we are not able to figure it that who has done this change and how. Further how this can be resolved.
Pls help.

Hai Jobi Thottungal,
Since you can create a Customer with Account type 001, please check what is the PARTNER TYPE assigned.
Now, GO TO
IMG Sales and DistributionMaster DataBusiness PartnersCustomersCustomer Hierarchy
Set Up Partner Determination for Customer Master
Partner Determination Procedure Assignment
Assign the Partner procedure to your Account group
So at the time of creation of Customer master with your Account group, the partner function will get created automatically.

Problem of trigger event for Customer master.

Hi all,
I created one object type in KNA1. because i want to use task instead of the workflow.
after i executed the customer master creation , i got this error during the execution."Dereferencing of the NULL reference".
if anybody want information, please let me know.

Hi
"At the beginning, i am using the Receiver Function module is SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT.
after i change to "SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT" but got error too."
Can you tell us where are you calling this FM (is it via Enhancement option or badi or exit) to trigger the event?
Just leave the Receiver FM as same as in SWE2 and make sure Linkage Actiavted check box is checked
"i can't do the buiding between &EVT_OBJECT& and &WI_OBJECT_ID&. because it is not same business object.
for our workflow object, it references to class is developed by me.
As suggested by Rick, you could make use of FM or as per blog, you could use class to trigger your custom class's event. Then you need to have binding at task level (PFTC)
&EVT_OBJECT& --> &WI_OBJECT_ID&.

Account Group and partner functions in customer master records

Hi Gurus,
I need your help to confirm the following understand if correct:
1. To create customer master record for partner function Ship-To, need to create a customer master record using the uniquely assigned account group for Ship-To , that is, 0002 . In this ship-to master record, define in its partner function tab, the other partner functions related to it.
2. To create the above, it cannot be achieved by just assigning the partner functions in the partner function tab of SOLD-To customer master record , created using account group 0001.
Question:
1. How does the system know or allow what codes a user can select (f4) or enter manually when defining in customer master record's partner function tab, the partner functions and their respective codes?
How is this controlled? Is it by user authorization? or will user / sales administrator be able to select any codes tied to a partner function?
2. Lets say there are 2 partner functions : Sales employee VE and 9E called Sales Representative. Both of these partner functions are of Partner Type PE.
When defining in customer master record's partner function tab, how does the system know what codes is selectable for the administrator for each of these partner functions?
best regards
M Russo

hi russo,
this is to inform you that,
1. yes you are right.
2. you need to follow the steps as you said.
Question:
1. that you can find in the search basing on account group for partners. that assignment we should know russo which SH to be assigned to which SP. no need to have authorization for that, make a note of the list of SH and SP to be assigned that's all.
yes, he will able to select any SH from the list but make sure that we assign the correct SH to the list of SP.
2. that you will be defining it in Partner Determination Procedures. at the time of CMR creation you have to select the correct code that will get populated in sales order.
hope this clears your issue.

Creation of extra field in customer master.

Hi All,
I have a requirement where i need to create one extra field.
We intend to capture taluka for each distributor. This will give us micro level detail. We can start analyzing sale at taluka level.Therefore we believe this additional field will be important.
Kindly provide your valuable solutions to achieve this.Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Pavan.

Hi Pavan,
Rather adding an Extra Field(if your requirement "Taluka" is only for information or statical purpose) you can go with charecterstics and classification.
In my Client Business, the requirement was to add the " Sales Group's" mobile number and Email id in customer master, so that they can a have report where they easily findout the phone number and mail id for the each sales group. so i have acheived this through Charecterstics.
Screenshot for your Reference:
This would be also an option.

Kamal
