Division in customer master

What is the reason for maintaining division for customer master. Does it mean that extending a customer for a particular division allows sale of material of that division to that customer....
Regards,

Dear Ishan,
Please note that In the SAP System you can define a division-specific sales organization. Product groups, i.e. divisions, can be defined for a wide-ranging spectrum of products.
For every division you can make customer-specific agreements on, for example, partial deliveries, pricing and terms of payment. Within a division you can carry out statistical analyses or set up separate marketing procedures.
Master Data in Sales and Distribution -> Organizational Structures -> Organizational Structures in SD -> sales area -> Division
For more info kindly refer the documentation available at the following link:

There is a division on customer master, as well as on Material Master. Whats the difference? from an accounting perspective also?
Rgds,
Rags.

Plz check the following which divison comes in the sales order.
if u go to VoV8 (or) there u can find 2 fields which are item divison or check diviosn. so that u can understand
Check division
     Controls how the system reacts during sales order processing when a
     division that is entered or proposed at the item level differs from the
     division in the document header.
Item Divison
Division in sales order item comes from the material
    Indicates whether the division at the item level is proposed from the
    material master record of the item or whether the division you enter in
    the sales document header also counts for all items.
Procedure
    If you mark this field, the system proposes the division from the
    material master record of the item. If you leave the field blank, the
    division in the document header also

How Extand Dividions in Customer master.

Dear Friends,
I Was up lodging Customer master. But the problem was my client has 4 Divisions so please guide me how to extend divisions in Customer master Data.
Thanks & Regards,
S.Reddy

Hi Shanthi Reddy,
Please follow the below mentioned procedure for extending the Customer Master over Various divisions.
Use the standard program initially for the creation of customer for one sales area.
Eg; DKTR,10,01
      DKTR,10.02
      DKTR,10,03
      DKTR,10,04.
Create the customer initailly for sales area DKTR 10 01.
Let say customer 15001 has been created.
For Extending the customer 'specify the customer number' in the upload program,automatically the customer will be extended.
Test it for one customer initially,you will notice a message in the log saying 'The customer already exists ad will be extended.
The customer has been created for DKTR 10 02.

Babul.

Payment terms based on specific dist.channel, division and Plant but not from customer master.

Dear All
I have a requirement,
Generally payments terms from customer master will flow to sales order. but here my requirement is to get a different payment terms based on specific distribution channel, division, customer and plant those are there in sales order but not from customer master. is there any user exit or functional module to fulfill this requirement, or any other suggestion appreciated.
Thanks,
Reddy

This Problem you can solve without user exit too.
The Customer master data itself can solve the problem.
You can maitain diffrent Payment Term as per the sales area (Dist.Ch+Div+S.org) of customer master.
and each sales are wise u can change the plant also.
You just need to set your logic with the combination of sales are and plant. And need to assign which payment term should determine to sales order.
If you are rasing sales order with X sales area relavent to that payment term will trigger.
Hope above logic will work, otherwise you can go with user exit.

Extend the Customer Master one Division to other Division

If we extend the Customer Master (XD01) One Division to Other Division then system not copies the addition customer data (Customer Groups) and Employee respons field.
How can copy the field?
Regards,
Devendra

Hi,
When you are extending the Customer master from One division to another division, Only General data will be copied
Remaining all other data should be manually changed or edited.
hope it is clear,

hi
anuradha,
In my knowledge customer pricing group is the main in the customer master ,
you will one test case in customer pricing group in customer u can not fill it, the same customer u can rise the sale order , system sows earorr message, no customer master records maintain, it means when u create the sale order system take pricing procedure , pricing procedure determination ; sales area+customer pricing procedure +document pricing procedure assign to pricing procedure,(ovkk) ,
customer statical group
Sales Organization      0001   Sales Org. 001
Distribution Channel    01
Division                       00
Cust.stats.grp              1      'A' Material
CustGroupMaterial       1      'A' Material
StatGrpSalesDoc         2      Returns, Credit Memo
StatGrpDocumentItm     1      Returns, Credit Memo
Update Group               1      SIS: Sales Document, Delivery, Billing Document
it is the static updating group for item level,
Sales Organization     0001   Sales Org. 001
Distribution Channel    01
Division                        01
Cust.stats.grp             1      'A' Material
StatGrpSalesDoc        1      Order, Debit Memo
Update Group              1      SIS: Sales Document, Delivery, Billing Document

Hi Parul Deshwal,
- The number range is created in XDN1.
- The number range is assigned to the account group "Stock Transfer - Depot" in SAP Customizing Implementation Guide>Financial Accounting>Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable>Customer Accounts>Master Data>Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data>Assign Number Ranges to Customer Account Groups
Remember - If you are entering an external number it generally means the number is created in an external system and replicated to your system.
Help - Check what external number was used last by doing SE16 on table KNA1 and use the account group "Stock Transfer - Depot" as a selection parameter.
Best regards,
Glynn

Change Logs for customer master data in 3.1 H version

Hello All
Are they any existing reports or change logs for viewing changes to customer master data in 3.1h version. I want to be able to report based on changes made to customer master.
I know there is a good report in 6.0 version for this- S_ALR_87012182.
If I have to develop a custom program for this in 3.1h. Which table I should use? KNA1 or CDPOS.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Hema.

Hi,
Please check the filter settings maintained for the adapter object CUSTOMER in R3AC1. The same filter settings can be referred in tables Table: CRMFILTAB (R/3) and SMOFFILTAB(CRM) as per srinivas's reply.
Check the sales area of the customer maintained (Sales Area, Division, Distribution Channel etc.) and see if the current filter settings are restricting the customer from getting replicated in CRM. If everything is maintained fine then check for any failure Bdocs in SMW01 or SMW02.

CATT - vendor/customer master address field length over

Dear all,
when use CATT to record vendor/customer master,the address some fields length are over recorded field length(ex. ADDR1_DATA-NAME4,ADDR1_DATA-STR_SUPPL3...etc)
is there any config in CATT to solve this kind of problem?

When you are doing your LSMW batch input recording, on selection screen (where you specify the sales org, distribution channel, division, account group, etc) please put a flag on "Use central address management" checkbox (SAPMF02D 0100 > USE_ZAV).
In this case you should be able to see and fill the desired fields.

Customer master report

Hi Gurus,
Do we have any reports for Customer master?
I want to know list of customers created for laste 3 months
Thank you
ANIL

Hi,
There is no standrd report i suppose.I created a zreport previously.
Take in to consideration KNA1 table and ERDAT field for date and you can create a Zreport or ABAP query as you require.
If you want the report in detail like Sales org,Distribution channel..Division.Then combine tables.KNA1,KNVV.
Thanks,

Customer master data copying from one sales order to other

Hello Friends,
I have requirement on customer master data maintenance, When ever i create a customer in one sales area it has to copied automatically to other sales area.Even if i change also system should replicate the changes to same customer in other sales area.
How can i achieve this?
Please help me

Hello,
Create Common Distribution Channels & Common Divisions.
This will make sure that Master Data you create for one Sales Area is valid for other Sales Areas also...
Proceed here:
IMG - Sales and Distribution - Master Data - Define Common Distribution Channels
IMG - Sales and Distribution - Master Data - Define Common Divisions
Hope this helps,
Thanks,

Customer Master data upload with Ref Customer Master

Hi all,
I want to extend all the Customer master records of a particular Sales area to another new Sales area (copy from one sales area to other). What is the easiest way to do this?
Am trying to copy by giving referrence number, but still i had to give all the relavant data which i suppose shold not be. So plz guide me the best way to copy the master data of all the customers.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Anil.

We have had the similar issue. I simply downloaded the customer master sales area data and replaced the distribution channel with new one in excel then division and recorded the LSMW for this only thing u have to be careful is while extending u have to use the current customer number as refernce which has to be recorded. this entire process till execution took about 30 mins + upload time.
It works perfect.
