FK01: Vendor Master Record Validation Table is not maintained

Hi Experts,
Appreciate your help on this matter: I have created a new Vendor Account Group and tried to used it. However, upon saving I encountered problem: error message Vendor Master Record Validation Table is not maintained. Do I missed some configuration?
Thank you very much!

Hi,
STEP 3 : In Financial accounting > A/R A/P > Business Transactions > Outgoing payments > Manual Outgoing payments >
Define Tolerance (Vendors)
STEP 4 : Create a GL A/c Creditors in FS00 as a balance sheet a/c and in control tab give reconciliation type as Vendors
and Field Status Group G067. Assign this account in company code data in FK02.

Sadashivan

Can validation check can be set for vendor master record .

Hi Experts ,
User wants to remove two existing payment methods,instead of removing i think to set validation for the vendor master record .
can validation can be set for vendor master record ?
PLease suggest me with advice.
Thanks
Pardha

Hi,
To my knowledge, validation can be set up for accounting document.
Though a work around, create a validation such that
Make the user enter the Payment method to be mandatorily entered by the user.
Also, restrict the unwanted payments as well in the same validation.
In case of APP also, the payment method in the document will take precedence.

Name field in FK01 vendor master creation/ table LFA1 lengths are different

Hi Experts,
We have an issue with FK01 vendor master creation.
The vendor Name field in FK01 has length of 40 char, however in Vendor Master table LFA1 field Name1 has length 35 char.
So when the user inputs a name of 40 char in FK01 it does get truncated in LFA1 table.
Guyz any idea how we can handle this scenerio.
Need your help.
Thanks
Jaif.

Please undesratnd the desciption I have given.
The issue is with FK01, when u create vendor in FK01, If you use a name of 40 char length in the NAME field.
After creating the vendor if you check the vendor in LFA1 table you'll find the name truncated to 35 char length in the NAME1 field.
How can we solve this problem. Is there any BADI/User exit available to fix it.
Thanks

Error while Importing Vendor Master records

I get the following error when importing vendor Master records into the MDM repositorry
Cannot import qualifiers because the qualified lookup field is not mapped.
I noticed that the file I'm importing contains 1000 vendors. However the qualified lookup table "PHONE" for the vendors contain only 388 records.
After I imported the records I found that there was only 389 records in the repository.
I'm using standard map provided by SAP.
I ran the import again but this time I unmapped all fields for the qualified update.
Now the Import Manager uploaded the remaining 613 records.
I would like to know whether how I can load 1000 records in one load rather than having to go through the file twice.
This is important since I want to use the import manager server for my loads.
Thanks
manoj

Hi Manoj,
Try the following options.
1. In the Import Manager, Select Configuration->Options
set <b>"Merge qualified links using matching qualifiers value to Off"</b>
2. In the Map Fields/Values tab in Import manager, select the qualified field in which you are trying to import, right clik on the field->select Set Qualified Update -> Update -> Select All available qualifiers into Matching qualifiers->
New Links- Create
Existing Links -> Update (All Mapped Qualifiers).
Hope this should solve your problem.
Thanks and Regards

Solved - Group Fields for Vendor Master Records in IMG

This was the solution.
The new field's data element I added to LFB1 did not have the "change document" field checked. I made that change and now that field shows up in IMG.
Hello all,
I added an append structure to the table LFB1. This structure has 1 field. I then created a "Modification-Free Enhancement of Vendor Master Record" to add the new LFB1 field to the vendor master screen, edit and display screens. This is the 3rd time I have done this. So far so good.
Now our functional analyst went into IMG to add this new LFB1 field to a "Group Fields for Vendor Master Records" which we have done 2 other times.
The new LFB1 field does not show up in the list of possible Table-fields.
There must be some other step I am missing.
Does any of this ring a bell? We are on version 4.7.
Thanks
Bruce
p.s.
This is the IMG path for adding 'Field Groups' to vendor master fields.

Hi Vandana,
There are several tables that are contain Vendor Master related data which can be used for extraction to BW. Some of the tables which can be useful for you are:
LFA1 : Vendor Master (General Section)
LFM1 : Vendor master record purchasing organization data
LFBW : Vendor master record (withholding tax types) X
WYT3 : Partner Functions
LFBK : Vendor Master (Bank Details)
LFB1: Vendor Master (Company Code)
ADRC: Addresses (Business Address Services)
ADR3: Fax Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADR6: SMTP Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADRT: Communication Data Text (Business Address Services)
You may use the Data sources mentioned in the previous update from Venky above namely :
0VENDOR_ATTR --- for master data attributes
0VENDOR_TEXTS -- For texts
Since the fields that you are using are from different tables so its better if you go for a Generic Data source where you can use the fields as per your requirement.
Thanks

Replication Error with Vendor Master Records

Hello,
We are trying to replicate vendor master records from R/3 to SRM via BBPGETVD. When we go to SLG1, there is an error stating Business Partner XXXX: Invalid Value 0003 for field Authorization Group.
Currently, the AP dept. maintains the field Authorization Group in the Vendor Master Record 'Control' screen with a fixed value of 0003 (LFA1-BEGRU). When the replication occurs, SRM complains that this field value does not exist in a SRM customizing table or is a fixed value.
Do we need to implement the BBP_TRANSDATA_PREP BAdI to pass this value as a fixed value to replicate vendors?
-regards
Shaz Khan

I'm planning to implement bbp_transdata_prep. Wondering if either one of you can help. I've also opened another thread with my specific questions.

Missing Purchasing Organization on Vendor master record

We have a vendor(s) that was created without a purchasing organization.
Is there a way to update the Purchasing Organization on a vendor master record if the purchasing organization field was left blank when the vendor was orignally created?
What are the ramifications of creating some vendors with a purchasing organization and others without?

Will,
You will need to extend the vendor to the purchasing org. using MK01 or XK01. The vendor master can be maintained centrally (XK01) or purchasing data (MK01) and accounting data (FK01) can be maintained independently. That is the reason SAP has provided 3 separate transactions.
If you need to use the vendor for purchasing functions (eg. create a PO), then the prerequiste is that you will need to maintain the vendor for all valid purchasing organizations. There are no other ramifications as such.
Hope this helps.

PRAA - Personnel numbers with already existing Vendor master record

Hi gurus,
We are using tcode PRAA to create vendor master, we notice some employees did not get converted to FK02 with the message "Personnel numbers with already existing Vendor master record". I checked FK02/FK03, but i didn't see any employee/vendor code there, I also checked vendor table, it is not there. why the system prompts me personnel numbers exist?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Just go to the table LFB1 and put in the field PERNR that you are trying to create.
If is created just put the transaction on modify instead of create.(if you want to change).
And is better to see the vendor in tansaction XK03.

Infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record

Hi All,
pls help me what infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record in AP module.
Customer require when Create Employee then system automatic gernerate Vendor Master.
pls help us.
Thanks

Hi,
PRAA works absolutely fine. I have external number range for vendors.
There is an option so that you can create HR accounts in vendor accounts
Path:Accounting> Financial accounting>Travel
management>Personal-Related Master Data> Create Vendors (tr.code PRAA)
Look at this description:
From the HR master data, this program creates a batch input session for
maintaining person-specific vendor master records.
The report can process vendor master records as follows:
o Initial set up (create/add missing company code segment)
o Uupdate (change completely according to vendor and HR reference)
o Change (only according to HR master data, for example, name
Block
The following infotypes from HR master data are taken into account for
the key date specified:
o Actions (Infotype 0000)
o Organizational Assignment (Infotype 0001)
o Personal Data (Infotype 0002)
o Permanent Residence (Infotype 0006 Subtype 1)
o Bank Details (Infotype 0009 Subtype 0 or 2)
All other required data is taken from a reference vendor that you can
specify as a parameter when you start the program. Note that for the
reference vendor, reference data must exist for all company codes that
are applicable according to HR master data. Since program RPRAPA00 cannot
assign vendor master record numbers externally when creating
vendor master records, you must be sure that the reference vendor is
assigned to an account group that requires internal number assignment.
If no house bank is specified in the reference vendor, this is
determined via feature TRVHB (Implementation guide for 'Travel Expenses'
-> Transfer to Data Medium Exchange -> Set up Feature for Determining
House Bank according to the employee's organizational situation.
The link between the HR employee's master record and the corresponding
vendor master record is set up by entering the personnel number in the
company code segment of the vendor master record.
General program flow
Program RPRAPA00 creates a sequential work file in the specified
directory. Ensure that you use a global directory that can be accessed
by all application servers; a directory is automatically proposed. The
work file is later transformed into a batch input session by the
subsequent program RFBIKR00, which is started automatically.
In test run mode this program delivers information messages which
document the creation of a batch input session. Since each information
message must be confirmed manually, the test run should only be
performed for a small number of personnel numbers.
In productive run mode, however, the program RFBIKR00 is automatically
started as a job; the information mentioned above is stored in the job
log in this case.
Initial setup of vendor master records
Corresponding vendor master records are created from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. During the process, the personnel number is stored in the
company code segment of the vendor master record. Persons who already
have a vendor master record with corresponding personnel number are
rejected in this run.
If a vendor master record already exists for a personnel number, but
without a company code segment for the company code in which the
employee exists at the key date entered, the program adds the required
company code segment to the vendor master record. You must however
activate the checkbox "Create new company code segment for existing
vendor master records".
The HR master data used is the info type record valid on the key date
entered.
Update of vendor master records
The corresponding vendor master records are updated from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. Persons who already have a vendor master record with
corresponding personnel number are rejected in this run. The system uses
HR master data from the infotype records valid for the key date.
Change vendor master records according to HR master data
All HR-specific data is changed in the vendor master records for
personnel numbers that have changes since the date recorded under '...
with last change since'. The system uses HR master data again from the
infotype records valid for the key date specified.
Block vendor master records
All vendor master records which correspond with the selected personnel
numbers are blocked for posting.
User exits
For the following situations, two empty routines are supplied in the
includes RPRAPAEX and RPRAPAEX&H5F001 which you can adapt to your
requirements.
o The employee's last name is entered in the sort field in the vendor
master record. If you do not want this to happen, you can program
the situation you want in the user exit routine
'set&H5Fmc&H5Ffield&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If the address editing in the vendor master record does not suit
your requirements, it can also be changed. For this purpose you have
the user exit routine 'set&H5Faddress&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If you want to assign numbers to the vendor master records to be
created via external number assignment (for example, vendor master
record number &H3D personnel number), you can adjust the user exit
routing 'SET&H5FVENDOR&H5FNO&H5FBY&H5FUSER' (in include RPRAPAEX&H5F00). Note
that
the account group of the reference vendor must also have external
number assignment.
Note that in each case a thorough knowledge of the programming
language
ABAP/4 is necessary.
Set up vendor master records in a separate system
The distribution of personnel master data from a HR system to an FI
system is a prerequisite for creating, changing, and blocking vendor
master records.
In the section Master Data Distribution (link to separate HR unit) of
the ALE IMG, an explanation is given regarding the way in which the
FI
System is supplied with the relevant employee data from the HR System
In the FI System, report RPRAPA00 described here can be used to
create,
change, and block vendor master records.
Other wise try with VPE1 t.code.

Create Vendor Master Record from HR Master Record

Hi All,
I am running PRAA Transaction Code, While running I am getting this Error.
Employee for whom a vendor master record already exists.
Personnel Number missing in company code segment.
Then I went to SM35 but did not found any batch.
Please can anyone explain the entire process.
Thanks and Regards

Edited by: Ravi Narayan Padhi on Jan 11, 2012 11:45 AM

Hello
In the report RPRAPA00, there is parameter ' 'Create new company code segment for existing vendor master records' as a checkbox under the 'Initial setup' maintenance mode, and it offers you the following option:
If there is a vendor master record already available for a predefined personnel number, but it does not have a company code segment for the company code in which the employee is situated for the key date entered,then program RPRAPA00 supplements the vendor master record with the required company code segment.
In your case, the company code already exist, so it will not create or add a new one with this option.
This only works for "First creation" and not for updating. You need to use "update" or "change" in the setting to do this.
Thanks and Kind Regards

Reg the Sort Key field in Vendor Master Record

Hi MM Gurus,
I have the requirement of displaying the Purchase Order number & Line Item number in the Accounting document of the Goods Receipt. i.e., in the "Assignment" field.
I have made the necessary configuration in FS00 for the specific GL account & also specified 014 code in the corresponding Vendor master record.
However, once I post the GR document, and checked the "Assignment" field, it displays only the Purchase Order number and not the Line item number.
Kindly help me on this.
Best Regards
Sudhi

Have you posted the above document after set 014 in FS00 ?
Can you test the same in your practice client.
Check the document for more details Sort Key Functionalities and the wiki content How to update Assignment field in FBL*N report - ERP Financials - SCN Wiki
(Note: The changes of FS00 as 014 will not effect old documents)

Vendor Master Record: Tax Number 1 Field

For some reason, when you enter XK01 or XK02 for creation or change of vendor master record, Tax Number 1 within the Control Tab is visible and able to be input. However, when displaying the vendor master record through XK03, the field is not visible. Reviewing the field options for vendor master record did not reveal anything to me. Any ideas why?
Thanks,
