Extending Business Partner

Hello Friends ,
I have report for Business Partner Extension in CRM server.
which extend bp for sales area in CRM & R3 server.
its working fine in CRM server, but in R3 server its not inserting data in zfields like ZVALFRM , ZVALTO,ZASTYP , ZGEOUNIT.
what is the BAPi required to extend BP in R3 server.
please reply.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Darshan,
You need to write middleware exit to send extension data from CRM to R/3.
You can add your own function module in table CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU, which would allow you to call bespoke function module during the outbound process. You need to read the extension data on the CRM side and pass it to the relevant structures.
You can look at the sample function module 'OPEN_FI_PERFORM_CRM0_300_P' on R/3 side which could be used for this purpose. You need to read the extended data and pass it to corresponding tables.
Once the data gets updated to the customer tables in R/3 you woudl be able to see it in reports.
Hope this is of help.
Thanks,
Surendar

How to extend business partner number length

My legacy business partner id is 13 digits long. But SAP business partner is only 10 digits long at maximum.
Please tell me how to extend this constraint?
Giang

Hi Giang,
Unfortunately, this is not possible - you cannot extend the length of BP number.
But there's a simpler way - there is a field called BPEXT in BUT000, this is the external BP number, and can store 20 digits.
You can transfer the BP number of legacy system into BPEXT field on the SAP system. This is a standard practice and is used by most people.

Updating extended fields in SRM Business Partner Web Dynpro UI does not work

Hey community,
I'd like to extend the SAP SRM Business Partner Web Dynpro (SRM 7.13). I did it like in SAP Note 1386310 described. Everything works fine, the fields show the correct data. But updating these fields does not have any effect.
I only want to extend the existent fields NAME_ORG3 and NAME_ORG4. I did the following steps:
- Because of the fact that the fields are existent and not custom, I skipped the extension of structures INCL_EEW_BUT000 and INCL_EEW_BUT000_X (ok, in utter despair I even tried this, but of course I got the message "fields already exist...")
- I added the 2 fields to the SRM business partner data transfer structure INCL_EEW_BP_CSF_COMPANY_DATA.
- In Web Dynpro /SAPSRM/WDC_MODC_NAME, view V_PS_OIF_NAME I added the fields NAME_ORG3 and NAME_ORG4 to the context node COMPANY_DATA
- I added corresponding Input fields and labels to the WD layout.
- in view /sapsrm/v_mdfsbc I customized the new fields
-> the new fields are visible in the WD, and, oh wow, they even show the correct data!
-> Unfortunately, updating the fields does not work, but000 does not get any data.
Debugging the function "bupa_central_extincl_change" brings up, that function BUP_MEMORY_BUT000_GET gets a but000 structure with filled NAME_ORG1 and NAME_ORG2, but NAME_ORG3 and NAME_ORG4 are empty.
I also regarded SAP Note 1453747, but the code was already right.
Any Ideas? Many thanks in advance!
Steffi

Hi Stefanie Krause,
I am also facing the same problem
I added the one fields "APPROVAL_EMAIL” to the SRM business partner, data transfer structure '/SAPSRM/S_CLL_BP_COMPANY_DATA ' . I have appended the structure.
I added corresponding Input fields and labels to the WD layout.
-> the new fields are visible in the WD,
-> i am able to visible the input field in WD,
But if add some value press on next tab and back to the screen the value will be refreshed .
Kindly help me
Thanks and Regards,

Extending Sales Area data for a Business Partner

Hi CRM experts,
I searched the forum but couldn't find a thread that I'm looking for..
I've a query regarding the extension of Business Partner to a new Sales Area in CRM. In R/3 we can provide reference sales area and extend the customer to a new sales area. This will copy all the relevant sales area fields' data to the new sales area in R/3. Do we have similar option in CRM? If not what is best method to extend large volume of Business Partners from one Sales Area to a new Sales Area?
Any pointers around this will be helpful.
Thanks,
Charan

Hi,
In the BP go to Sales Area Data and select sales tab. In that select the sales Org,D.Channel,division for which you want to maintain and enter all the detail in all the tabs (shipping,Sales,Billing etc) and save the BP.

E-Recruiting 6.0: Business Partner Role For Branches

Hi Experts,
In the IMG, SAP E-Recruiting > Basic Settings > Enterprise Structure > Define Business Partner Role for Branches
Can anyone help in the following:
1) What is the purpose of Business Partner Role and how does it relate the Branches? Or how can i make use of it?
2) If i am going to maintain the Company & Branches via the Administrator function instead of IMG, do I still need to configure this step: Define Business Partner Role for Branches
Thanks. Will reward points for any helpful tips.
William

Hello William,
the Business Partner is an application / module which belongs to the base components of the SAP. It is used and partly extended by various other applications / modules. Next to E-Recruiting it is used for example by CRM and the financial service solution (FS-CS, FS-PM, FS-RI). All of these modules can put their data for a person or an organization into the same tables. Depending on the installation / system environment or even within one single module the requirements for available fields and business checks as on authorization differ between kinds of business partners (e.g. in FS-CS the commission solution for the financial service sector knows external agents and internal employees which have to be treated differently). The business partner is the element to assign the logical / business role in which a person is handled by the system.
For E-Recruiting you have 2 kinds of business partners, too. On the one and there are people being candidates and on the other hand there are branches of your company which hire people. The configuration allows you to seperate them if you need to identify anywhen which business partner is a branch and which is a candidate. So far I never tried if this is really working as there is no real use for this I never set it up. The attributes and the business checks are the same anyways.
Hope that helps a bit to understand the context
Best Regards
Roman Weise
PS: please remember that you have to maintain the branches via administrator bsp application. Using the IMG entry won't work.

Adding new Field in Business Partner General Data

Hi All,
I'm working on a mySAP CRM 4.0 implementation.
I would like to extend the business partner data with this new three field:
1) Capital Stock
2) Base Number
3) Sales pl.
The three field are Dun & BradStreet information.
I created a BSP that show all Business Partner General Data and now we want to show also those fields.
In order to extend the BP data we received two suggestion:
The first one is to use the BP marketing Attributes.
The second is to use the Easy Enhancement Workbench.
I know that advantages of the EEW is the automatic creation of the layout (BSP & DYNPRO).
Doo you have any suggestion??
It's a good solution to use the EEW??
Thanks a lot.
Eugenio

Hi,
First of all thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I have to add some information:
The end-user will use the application only in PC-UI mode (through Enterprise Portal).
We are customizing the BSP application (Accounts).
I know that in past some colleagues used the EEW to extend or to add some field to application BP. I remember that the field (after Enhancement the new fields was visible in SAPGUI mode and in BSP mode).
Now my questions are the following:
1) Are you sure that I can use EEW only 10 times??
2) We are using the BAPI (CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE) in order to add Business Partner in the system; after the creation of the new fields with EEW the BAPI (CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE) will be able to insert the new fields?? Or we need to extend this BAPI with new fields?
The second question is very important for us because we have to import in the system about 30.000.000 of Business Partners.
Kind Regards.
Eugenio.

Synchronization from vendor to business partner is not active?

Hi there
I am busy performing data migration of business partners and vendor accounts and have hit an issue on the last step of linking the uploaded BP to the uploaded Vendor.
On execution of the transaction FLBPC2 (Link Vendor to Business Partner), it issues the error "CVIV_UI015 Synchronization from vendor to business partner is not active" which I believe is a product error because:
1. I have configured BP to a new internal number range (and all other config requirements)
2. I have configured a new Vendor account group with an external number range which is a duplicate of 1. above
3. I have enabled BP to Vendor synchronisation in "Master Data Synchronisation" (from BP to VENDOR).
I have tested my configuration successfully by creating a business partner via transaction BP and extending him to a vendor in a company code perfectly (works like a charm).
My data migration process includes:
- Creating a business partner using BAPI BUSISB990/FSCREATEFROMDATA.
- Creating a vendor using the external number given above using a recording of FK01.
- Linking the two using a recording of transaction FLBPC2 (Link Vendor to Business Partner).
I am not trying to synchonise a business partner from vendor, but to synchronise the vendor via the business partner (which works using transaction BP) when the issue is received.
Any ideas as to why I cannot do the operation manually which works via automation and why the error is not appriate?
Regards
Joe

Good morning,
I had a similar problem and solved by disabling
the integration of the PI / XI of the PPO.
To make sure that the PPO is working properly.
You can check this setting by BUPA_CALL_FU transaction.
Checks if the items are BUPA_OUTBOUND_MAIN and BUPA_OUTBOUND_REL
integration of the disabled for PI / XI, according to the objects you need to be replicated.
If they are uncheck them and rerun your tests.
Use MDS_PPO2 the transaction log to check the copy of BP
to the Vendor.
I hope it helps, Good luck,

Business Partner Mass creation

Hi Experts
We are in process of impementing Service Desk in Solution Manager 4.0. We did one to one user mapping. now we are about to creat Buisiness partner for 9950 users. when we got Transaction DSWP and Click on Edit and Create business Partner and when we select the system PS2 and clicking on drop down so that we can select some user it not let us to do. its saying that Time out. Please find the Log
"Runtime Errors         TIME_OUT
Date and Time          26.03.2008 20:11:19

     Time limit exceeded.
What happened?
     The program "DSWP_USER_PROPAGATION_TO_CRM" has exceeded the maximum permitted
      runtime without
     interruption and has therefore been terminated.
What can you do?
     Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
     To process the problem further, contact you SAP system

     Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look

     keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
     After a specific time, the program is terminated to make the work area
     available to other users who may be waiting.
     This is to prevent a work area being blocked unnecessarily long by, for
     example:
     - Endless loops (DO, WHILE, ...),"

Hi,
Please ask your basis team to change the instance profile transaction RZ10 extended maintenance change the parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time to higher value. The value unit is in seconds. Considering the number of user entries, this requires to be increased. No other way out.
Please keep in mind, you have to restart the instance.
This will solve your problem. Feel free to revert back.

SAP Business Partner

Hi Guys,
As we need to have Vendor mapped as Business Partner inTM, Kindly suggest how to handle the Vendor Master in ECC.
Should we create Vendor as Business Partner in ECC so as to interface with TM. If so, then how can we use this vendors in ECC for creating PO and Invoice Verification, It means that can we extend the business partner to purchasing and accounting level?
Appreciate your inputs on above.

Hi Kiran,
The TSP (Transport Service Provider ) /Vendor will be maintained in the Transaction code BP in ECC.
This needs to be done, so that Service POs can be created in ECC, where the Vendor will be the TSP. I am using TM 8.0
Hope this provides you some insight.

Missing Business Partner

Classic Scenario; SRM 5.0; R/3 46C
Hi everyone,
I am a true novice when it comes to troubleshooting issues related to Business Partners. My updated SRM Org Structure shows that there is a node w/ a business partner number 0000005409 under the Extended Attribute - Locations. And for the plant description, the line is blank.
However if I go to the transaction BP and search for this business partner 0000005409 - I receive the message "0 Business Partner Found." Has anyone encountered something like this?
I think when we did the upgrade from EBP 3.5 to SRM 5.0 there was a failed operation.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Thank you again for your response Gordan.
I checked the table but this BP is indeed missing.
Do you recommend that I assign a new BP? My only concern is that this BP exists in the org structure. How can I "safely" recreate this BP and reassign; do you see any issues that I have to aware of?
I am very unfamiliar with this process and relationships with other objects in SRM.
Thank you again for your informative responses.
Thank you,
Jay.

your suggestions will be highly appreciated.

IS-U/CRM business partner created in SD results in data loss

Dear experts,
I have been investigating a strange issue with a customer.
It concerns a IS-U/CRM architecture, where also the SD customers are exchanged.
- All IS-U business partners are exchanged. Not all of these business partners have an SD customer (with same number) linked.
- Some SD customers (some account groups) have no IS-U business partner linked
Now when in IS-U a business partner is extended for SD (via reference customer) a bdoc is sent to crm, containing next changes :
- is_customer is set to X
- Sd account group is filled
On the R/3-ISU side the customer is created in SD. But when processing the BDoc sent to CRM, crm answers also with a customer create (??) which results in the SD customer to be overwritten
--> this is clear because we have blocked the queues and after extending the BP in ISU the SD customer was created with userid of the employee (ERNAM), and after processing BDoc the SD customer creator (ERNAM) was changed to the RFC customer.
This also leads to the fact that data which was copied in from the ref.customer into the SD customer was overwritetn again by the CRM insert.
Has anybody ever been confronted with a similar problem or can give me some advice how to handle this. As we are already in production, and this leads to data loss, In don't need to say this is a very urgent issue for us.
Thank you very much, and of course points will be rewarded!!
Regards,
Michiel Strybol

Hi Alin,
Thank you for your reply.
I'll try to explain these in some more detail :
1/ We have a system landscape which includes ECC/IS-U & CRM
2/ We have different scenarios active:
- We have a scenario where IS-U is not involved, meaning SD customers (=ECC customers in the Sales & Distribution Module (KNA1)) are replicated to CRM
- IS-U business partners are replicated to CRM. But not all IS-U business partners have an SD customer record active. When billing needs to be done for such a customer, an SD customer is created for this ISU business partner (from within ISU), using a reference customer in SD. Apparently this also seems to trigger a SD customer create sent from CRM which causes our problem ...
There is no master system. Business partners can be created both in ISU and CRM, and should the be replicated in the other system
Hopefully this clarifies it for you.
Thank you very much in advance!!
Michiel
