Impact of Updating Customer Name in existing Open Sales Orders

Hello,
There's a requirement to update an existing Customer Name which we can very well do via API but what we tested the impact on :
Sales Order in 'Entered status'
Sales Order in 'Booked status'
Sales Order in 'Shipped status'
Sales Order in 'Closed status'
Sales Order in 'Cancelled status'
and the customer information was updated in all the above scenarios.
The question/doubt I have is:
1) Does the change in Customer Name has an impact in other modules like Service Contracts etc (In other words is the change reflected there automatically?)
2) For an Sales Order in Shipped status with an Old customer Name and if we now change the customer name, will there be any impact in AR?
To summarize will just changing the 'Customer Name' from 'Recievables' ensure that the change is flowed to all modules or is there a chance that somewhere in some module Customer Name is not in sync??
Please come with suggestions/solutions/alternatives ...
If you need any more information on this please let me know.
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Jyoti,
Thanx for the reply.
You are correct, but for my question I am changing customer name at Recievables not in a Sales Order.
When I change a Customer Name from Recievables it replaces all existing 'in-process' sales order with the new updated customer name(note that I am just updating the name thereby party_id etc columns remains the same...) in whatever Status it is.
So my question was:
1) Does the change in Customer Name has an impact in other modules like Service Contracts etc (In other words is the change reflected there automatically?)
2) For an Sales Order in Shipped status with an Old customer Name and if we now change the customer name, will there be any impact in AR?
To summarize will just changing the 'Customer Name' from 'Recievables' ensure that the change is flowed to all modules or is there a chance that somewhere in some module Customer Name is not in sync??
Hope you got the point!
Please provide your valuable inputs.
Thanks,
Ajit

  • Global  price update in existing open Sales Order

    Hi  Expert Team ,
    I have one scenario -
    My customer will enter a sales order .
    For example :
    Customer A buy X at 10 at 05/26/2009 and his delivery date is 05/30/2009
    Management decide to do cost down by 15% of product A  from 05/30/2009.
    Business rule here is :
    When customer sells at 05/30/2009 , price should reflect 15% inexisting order as well as new order .
    For new order , we can specify the special and period volume discount , it will apply to new order .
    In this scenario , how can we update the sales price of open sales order .
    What are my options beside updating manually or DTW
    Thank you
    Bishal

    If your Sales Orders are not locked by approval procedure, you could use DTW to update them.  Otherwise, you may have to cancel the old and create new orders.
    Thanks,

  • Update new material master weight and dimension in open sales orders and de

    Hi,
    Iu2019m maintaining gross weight, net weight, volume in material master. When the time of sales order entry in VA01 its calculating weight and dimensions based on material master and order quantity. And I create deliveries in VL01N.
    If I made a correction in the net and gross weight in material master after I created the sales order will the correct net and gross weight will pick up at the delivery creation.
    In other term is the VL01N net and gross weight is taking from which is available in SO or Material master.
    Is there any standard transaction to update already existing open sales order, delivery net and gross weight once it is corrected in material master?
    Please advice.
    Sam

    Is there any standard transaction to update
    No it is not possible to update the weight in existing sale order or delivery.  You have to change it manually or create a new sale order.   Weight in delivery will be fetched from sale order only and hence,  whatever delivery you create referencing a sale order, system will copy whatever is there.
    thanks

  • Item Status can be controlled for open Sales Order

    Hi All,
    Is there anyway we impose restriction on changing the status of the item if there are any open Sales Order against it? Example: If an item A is in Active Status and has a Sales Order with Awaiting Shipping Status. Before the order is booked if someone changes the item status to Inactive, is there anyway we can prevent it from changing the status if there are any open Orders against it?
    Version: 11.5.10.2
    This is urgent please.
    Thanks,
    Ashish

    Hi Sandeep,
    Thx for the quick update. I have tried to update the status of an item to obsolete when Sales Order Line exist against the item. It is giving the following error. I have tried with Custom Code off. So my assumption is there should not be any personalization. Can you please look into it further.
    This is quite urgent, pls.
    Error: "This field can not be updated as there are either Open Sales Order Lines or Pending Delivery Transactions"
    Thanks,

  • Current month open sales orders

    Hello Experts,
    I have requirement to build a custom report to calculate open sales order quantity and its count for current month. I know we can use VBBE for open quantity and VBUP for the status to capture the count, however how can i add the logic to get the required information for the current month. Is there a function module or BAPI available which can be of any help, i have to consider the performance issue too, if i were to use multiple tables. Please advise
    Thanks
    Rahul

    HI Rahul,
    There is a standard BAPI available for listing Sales Orders.
    <b>BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST</b>
    However to meet your requirement of <b>OPEN sales orders</b>, you will have to modify this BAPI to suit your purpose. You can give appropriate logic to you ABAPer with reference to tables VBUK,VBUP, etc. This means that you will have to create a new Z-BAPI, keeping the above BAPI as the core.
    Once this is done you can wrap Z-BAPI in a transaction code or a program/ report, so that it is ready to use by business.
    Selection Variants can be used to default the date range as 01/MM/XXXXX to 31/MM/XXXX.
    Hope this will prove of some help to you..
    if yes then ..pls reward liberally

  • LSMW BAPI Open Sales Order Load - How to update conditions?

    Hello gurus,
    I was using the BAPI SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 to upload open sales orders. Wanted to overwrite the default PR00 pricing condition that gets pulled from the customer-material info record, with the price that was existing in the original legacy system when the order was created there. Used the E1BPCOND structure in the Idoc, but since there is no such thing as a E1BPCONDX structure(corresponding to the structure BAPICONDX in the origial BAPI) where you could specify whether the condition should be updated, added or deleted, it adds a second PR00 condition with the legacy system price. The original PR00 condition with the customer-material record price still stays there. Eventhough the order seems to be taking into consideration only the second one I added, to determine the total pricing, I am worried the original sitting there, might cause problems down the document flow. Is there a way to update the existing PR00 condition(rather than adding a new one) on the order, through some flag in the Idoc structure that I am not aware of?
    Would greatly appreciate an answer ASAP.
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Wayfarer

    Thanks and appreciate your taking your time to reply, Gerard, I guess my problem is, we are still on 46C, and the only message type available for this BAPI is SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT201. Just called a friend who is on ECC 60 who confirmed that the later version of this message type, SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT202 has the E1BPCONDX structure. I don't have that option since on LSMW it automatically defaults to the only message type(and method CREATEFROMDAT2) that is available, when you choose business object BUS2032. Guess I am out of luck, unless you have any other options to suggest.
    Thanks,

  • How to update  pricing in open sale order

    Hi all
    in open sale order suppose my basic price has been changed .how Can i update all open sales order basic price in one shot.

    Dear Sachin,
    Please follow the point as given below;
    1. In VTFL for your item category maintain pricing type as B if it is delivery related billing and if it is order related billing VTFA maintain pricing type as B and one more thing maintained Billing Quantity as C if you using VTFA and Billing Quantity as D if you using VTFL.
    2. Create the new condition records in VK11 for your new price ( Do not change the existing  condition record in VK12) with proper validity dates
    3. Use update button in billing the system will pick the new record by accessing VK11 in billing.
    Try this, it will work.

  • Self Updating Report of Open Sales Orders (Maybe Crystal )

    I want a self updating report of Open Sales Order. I want it to refresh constantly. I know that it could be an alarm but it would be executed every # minutes and dont want to. Any ideas ? I dont know Crystal Reports enough but is it posible ?

    Hi ,
    If I were you , I will not be crazy looking at my sales order in every 1 minutes ..I would train my users to check at least 15 minutes.
    I understand what u are trying to do;you  want that customer will see the latest open SO created ..but 15 minutes is good enough time .
    I think you have to check if database size grows up big time ..so far no report has come to me from my clients for this set up .
    make sure you  are not saving an alert into database
    If you are using multiple alerts , I will atleast monitor my database for a while to see i encounter performance issue ..
    So far for one alert at every 15 minutes ..i think u should be fine ..
    Hope this helps

    Dear Heagal,
    I followed your suggestions and implemented in the Development and moved the changes in to Quality Server. I tested it thoroughly by creating New Customer and maintained Credit Limit. I come to know that Problem is in all Servers. I made 3 changes.
    1. In Pricing Procedure Sub Total A it was not maintained against Net value. I placed it.
    2. Removed Credit groups for Delivery Type.
    3. In OVA8 i maintained Max. Doc Value :99,999,999.00 before it was with 1.00
    I checked the OMO1 Settings it was Asynchronous. As SAP Notes Suggesting to use Synchronous but here it's a client setting. So, It's Can't possible to change. Changes will affect other Company Codes.
    Tested both in DVP and QTY Dynamic Credit Check is working Perfectly and Status in FD33 Sales Value field getting update.
    If i move these changes in to Production, Will i need to run the reports again or not? How it will affect on Old Cusomer Billing and  Credit Limit data. For few of the Customers the Credit Limit data it was exceeded. Please provide me advice. The issue need to be Solved immediately.

  • Open sales order not getting updated in FD32

    HI
    We are configuring Credit management, and found that the open sales orders are not getting updated in FD32.
    I have checked all the settings in OVA8 and all are working fine. This is a Static credit check and system is blocking the customer in case, the limit is exceeded. But the values are not getting reflected in FD32, for open sale orders, that are not blocked.
    Info structure S066  in OMO1 all are configured perfectly. I have run F.28 and no log was issued.
    Request to suggest other reasons for not getting updated in the table.
    I have gone thru the previous threads, but cud not find any solution.
    Regards
    Vamsi Javaji.

    Hi Vamsi Javaji
    First of all check in OVA8 wheather you have checked Open sales orders feild or not . Secondly check in your pricing procedure wheather you have maintained Subtotal A or not for the Net Value .Also check wheather you have assigned to your sales document type correctly or not  Finally check in OMO1 wheather S066 has been assigned correctly or not
    Check wheather you have assigned the Credit control area to the customer in CMR , in sales tab

  • Mass update exchange rate type (not rate) in open sales orders

    Hi all,
    Our requirement is to update the exchange rate type at sales order header (VBAK-KURST) for all open sales orders with a new type created. (Z001). This field does not appear in MASS transaction for sales orders despite being present in the structure MASSSDHEAD.
    This field cannot be located even in VA02 transaction (I am not sure if standard SAP masks or shows this field at header; I also can't find any transaction variants assigned).
    Can anyone suggest how this field can be updated for sales orders either individually or in mass mode.
    Regards,
    KC
    SAP SD

    You are correct in indicating that Exchange rate type field  is not seen in Header data of sales order. I checked screen layouts for various screens for sales order data and this field is not suppressed. The only reason could be that this field is not used in sales order screens
    If you are interested, you could also check in the following way
    1.  Go to SE11, enter database table as VBAK
    2. Once inside data dictionary table, click where used list button, select programs and screens and execute
    3. click continue (don't select background)
    4. now you would have list of programs and screens, this table is used
    5.  now start another session and go to transaction SE51
    6. indicate program name as SAPMV45A and screen numbers as listed in step 4. you can check all screen numbers to see whether Exchange rate type field is listed in sales order layout.
    7. Of particular interest would be screen number 4311 as this contains  Financial accounting data & 4303 Billing data
    8. you can check screen layout for screen 4311 & 4303. you would see Exchange rate type field is not indicated.
    9. in case you could find this field in any screen, you could ask your ABAP consultant to add this field in the layout screen.
    Hope this answers your question
