Duplicate vendor reference no - GRPO

Hi all,
This is issue with client, when they try to add grpo with vendor reference no
it shows error message "duplicate vendor reference number" eventhough
vendor reference number is same with created grpo, grpo that was added
for a different vendor,grpo no and date.
In document settings we checked the option blocked when duplicate
vendor reference number occurs.
How to solve this problem ?
Thanks,
With regards,
A.Jeyakanthan

Hello,
I tried to use same vendor reference no. to different vendor and it works well in SAP B1 2005A SP 01 PL 34. What version do you use ? in my SAP B1, I can't see the check box
blocked when duplicate vendor reference number. try to use this query :
select t0.cardcode, t0.numatcard from OPOR t0 inner join OPDN t1 on t1.docentry = t0.docentry
If problem still persists, you could look for sap notes and/or escalate it to SAP support

How to prevent duplicate vendor reference no on SAP B1 v8.8?

Helo experts,
I have SAP B1 v.8.8 and they system is allowing me to enter the same Vendor Reference for different POs but same BP.
Is there a way to prevent duplicaton?
I read in other post that there was an option in Admin'-System Initialisation-Document settings......to block duplication, but that does not show on my screen.
Do you have any ideas or suggestions?
Thank you

Hello Gordon,
Thanks for the link but I had already read those posts.
I understand there is a way to prevent duplicate to enter vendor reference numbers.
However, my question would be if the version that I am using would have the option to block release when When duplicated Vendor Reference No occurs as I cannot find it.
Please advise,
Thanks

U can change radio button option in per document tab of document settings for sales order,
Either change it to without warning / warning only When duplicated customer reference no. occurs.
Modify customer reference number by including dot at end.

Validation Check - Duplicate vendor Invoices

Hi,
We have a situation where the Duplicate Vendor Invoices have been entered by the users, bearing the same date and reference nos. as the original ones. When we checked we observed that, the system gives the warning message, but the same is ignored by the users. To prevent the same from happening again, we want to convert the warning message into the error message.
Could any one guide as to how can we set up the validation checks, such that the system would throw an error message. In the vendor masters, we have set up the check for Duplicate Invoices.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,

Hi,
If you already know the message number, then go to T.code:OBA5 or
T.code:SE91 (if its an custom message class) and change the message from waring to Error.
If you are not aware of Message, and try to post a duplicate invoice & when the warning message comes, double click on the same, it will give you the message number.
This will resolve your issue.
Please let me know the result of the same
Thanks

Duplicate BP Reference Numbers for same document type -need check on orders

Version: (2007A)
Description of requirements:
The user is allowed to create two sales orders for the same customer that have exactly the same BP Reference. When the user invoices one of them and then tries to invoice another, they are warned that there is already a document of the same type with this reference number. The problem is, they ship the goods out physically before they actually create the invoice document, so that by the time they are entering the invoice in the system, the goods have already been shipped twice, when they should only have been shipped once, If they were warned when they were adding or updating the order, then this could be prevented from happening. Same thing for vendors. Our customers would like to have the check for duplicate BP references on the purchase order as well as on the AP Invoices.
Business needs: Our Clientsu2019 customers are receiving duplicate shipments and this has a negative impact on their business relationship as it creates costly extra work and inconvenience for all.
Examples: Would like the same check that is currently on AR and AP Invoices for the same BP reference number existing already on the same document type implemented on the sales order and purchase order. When the user is adding an invoice for a BP and there is already an invoice for the BP with the same BP reference number, the user is warned and asked if they want to continue.
Current Workaround: None. As our customers often physically ship the goods before creating an invoice from the order, there are duplicate shipments and this is most inconvenient and costly to our customers as well as their customers.
Proposed solution: see above. This is a high priority item for our customers.

hi,
Use SP_TransactionNotification to block sales order & purchase order from adding having duplicate bp reference number.
SAP Note 1258097 - Can the Suppliers Reference number be
made unique? activated approval procedure also for ar invoice.
It may solve problem.

Want to configure e a warning message for Duplicate Vendor master creation.
I can see a message F2144 configred, but this is only applicable if we create Vendor from FK01.

For normal vendor you can maintain duplicate check in OBA5

Detect potential duplicate vendor master records

Hi all,
Our external auditor has the following comment:
'Match codes and message control can be used to help identify duplicate vendor records. Fields such as Name, Address and Country can be set as searchable fields in order to detect potential duplicate vendor records. The message control (with identifier 144) in SAP can give a message prompt when duplicate vendors are identified.
We noted that your system had not been configured to display a warning message if the name or address, etc of a new record is identical to an existing vendor record.'
Any idea to implement this?
I searched for message 144 and found that there is a similar message in message class F2: 'Vendors found with same address; check', but I cannot find where to trigger this error message.
Please help.
Best Regards,
Chris.

How do i check ensure that SAP checks for duplicate vendor invoice numbers?

Hi Experts -
How do I verify that SAP checks for duplicate vendor invoice numbers and blocks duplicate invoices from being paid?
Thanks!

Hi
Pls chek the settigs by following the path
IMG>Materials Management>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Set Check for Duplicate Invoice.
Here you make the settings for creating a duplicate invoice check.
Moreever, in the vendor master, you need to tick the check box for duplicate invoice check.
I suggest you search the Forums before posting a query. There are lots of postings on this issue.
Thanks & regards

Duplicate vendor check during supplier registration

Hi Gurus,
Does SAP SRM ROS check for duplicate vendor during supplier registration? if it is not done in standard, can it be enhanced to do so?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
Every supplier who registers will have a unique BP number in the ROS client. However checking for duplicacy by name is not supported in standard ROS.
One option is that when a strategic purchaser accepts these suppliers and creates a BP in SRM, he notices a duplicacy and informs the vendor. However this will fail if there is a huge volume of vendors registering everyday.
Possible workaround: When the new vendor fills in the registration form, he provides the name of organisation and this is stored in tables using BAPIBUS1006_CENTRAL_ORGAN. May be you can sit with an ABAP guy and find out in which table this entry sits. You can then have a Z table where you store all these organisation names whenever a new vendor registers and for checking duplicacy you could run a loop through this Ztable Column which stores the name and display a message on 'ROS_SELF_REG' BSP reg page whenever a duplicate entry is found.
PS : Entries like 'IBM' and 'IBM Ltd' will still be created as 2 different entities even though they mean the same.

Duplicate Vendor Ref. No.

Dear Experts,
Is there a way restrict the "Vendor Ref. No." field on the A/P Invoice screen so that the same invoice number from a vendor is not duplicated?
In other words, we want to keep from paying a duplicate invoice.
Any suggestiions?
Also, if any of you have a client with heavy B1 A/P processing, please let me know. I would like to speak with you, especially if you moved a client off batch processing.
Thanks.
John

Dear Jane,
Try this modified Stored Procedure for A/P Invoice in Test Database and then Proceed,
I checked in my database, found working well.
if @object_type = '18'
and (@transaction_type = 'A' or @transaction_type = 'U')
Begin
declare @venno as varchar (100)
declare @vennam as varchar (100)
if (@object_type = '18')
Begin
select @venno = NumAtCard, @vennam = CardCode from OPCH T0 where docentry = @list_of_cols_Val_tab_del
Begin
if (@venno is not null)
Begin
if 1!= (select count (docentry) from OPCH with (nolock)where (NumatCard = @venno) and (cardcode = @vennam))
Begin
select @error = 2
select @error_message = 'Duplicate Vendor Ref Number!'
End
End
End
End
End

Hi Leonardo E. Martinez
Try This you can include the series in the where condition
If @object_type = '17' and (@transaction_type in ('A' ,'U'))
begin
declare @RefNo as varchar (100)
declare @CardCode as varchar (100)
declare @Series smallint
     if (@object_type = '17')
          begin
             select @RefNo = NumAtCard, @CardCode = CardCode from ORDR T0
                    where docentry = @list_of_cols_Val_tab_del and T0.Series IN (1,6)
             begin
               if (@RefNo is not null)
                 begin
                   if 1!= (select count (docentry) from ORDR where (NumatCard = @RefNo) and (cardcode = @CardCode))
                     begin
                        select @error = 10
                        select @error_message = 'Conduce Duplicado'
                     End
                   End
               End
          End
End
Hope Helpful

I want to remove duplicate vendor number

I want to remove duplicate vendor number, should I put deletion flag or block them ?
Also in some cases there are some dependancies (open PO, pending invoice, payment due), can somebody suggest safe way ?

I would recommend to set both indicators.
Block will restrict the usage, while deletion indicator makes the vendor going to the archive file/removing it from the table with the next archiving run.
You have to decide what you want to do with the open business cases.
You either convert them to the correct vendor directly, or you finish it during the next month with standard business process.
Blocking of vendor master may have some impact to open business cases.

Duplicate Vendor account...

Hii
How can you prevent duplicate vendors from being created?
Please reply

Dear expert
i have one more objection about Select E for online and batch programs this also its not possible to enter E in online and batch programs . Please check in your system otherwise check my link in previous posting ( it will show all the screen shots )
http://www.sapfunctional.com/FI/Duplicate/Index.htm
Set the values Online = u2018Iu2019 and BatchI (Batch Input) = u2018Iu2019
If you want to make this check user specific then enter the User Name else leave it blank to make it applicable for all users.
