Maintain Vendor Customer addresses in synch

Hi all,
As you all aware that, there could be a scenario where a person can act as both Vendor and also a customer. So, in that case, is there any simple way, where we can keep both the Vendor master and the customer master addresses in synch? Means, suppose, if there is a change in vendor address, we need to have customer also changed to the same address.
I can acheive this functionality by writing a function module and calling it in the SAVE user exit of the Vendor master or so. Or else, writing a program and keeping that in a batch process. But, if anybody knows a simple way of acheiving it by configuration or any idea like standard function module, etc which does the same; please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
From,

Hi Adithya,
Please check for the following link regarding BAS (Business Address Service). Also you can go through the concept of CAM (Central Address Management).

SAP MDM Vendor email addresses are not in order when sent to SAP R/3

Hi Experts,
We were trying to maintain vendor email addresses in this order in SAP MDM:
E-mail address: massupa@nexus
Sequence Number: 001
E-mail address: win@nexus
Sequence Number: 002
E-mail address: satita@nexus
Sequence Number: 003
But when saving the record, its order get mixed up like below: (I believe it was arranged alphabetically automatically---> is this the standard MDM functionality?!)
E-mail address: massupa@nexus
Sequence Number: 001
E-mail address: satita@nexus
Sequence Number: 003
E-mail address: win@nexus
Sequence Number: 002
When it gets syndicated to ECC, its order was maintained incorrectly with incorrect IDs:
E-mail address             ID
massupa@nexus        001
satita@nexus              002   -
> should be 003
win@nexus                 003 -
> should be 002
we checked both the XML Files and the IDOC and found that it has the same order maintained in SAP MDM
massupa@nexus        001
satita@nexus              003
win@nexus                 002
But how come the IDs were changed in R/3?
Many thanks in advance!

Hi Mike,
As per your requirement, i feel that for ID either you can create a new field say sequence ID in this e-mail addresses table of MDM and thus can syndicate it or can also use ID as key using remote key concept. I mean for this e-mail addresses table, you can set property Key mapping = yes in MDM Console and thus can use this IDs as key for this email address e.g. for massupa@nexus you can save ID as Key.
So during syndication, map this field with target IDOC structure field and I mean Remote Key under e-mail addresses table with IDOC ID target field. In this way you can have correct IDs with their corresponding email addresses.
Kindly let me know if you are looking for something else.

How to get customer and vendor street addresses 4 and 5?

I need to know what table/field has the customer and vendor street addresses 4 and 5 stored in to them and how to access these fields.
This is for mapping on a LSMW customer and vendor data conversion.
Thanks!
Scortt

Thread should be moved to
Such fields do belong to address management tables. eg:ADRC-NAME3, ADRC-NAME4...
In other words they do not belong to customer master data so they are not reachable directly from customer master data fields.
The link is KNA1-ADRNR = ADRC-ADDRNUMBER
You might face difficulties in the mapping except if you plan to process in LSMW both DEBMAS idocs AND ADRMAS idocs

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.

0Employee/Vendor/Customer Email Address

Hello,
Does anyone know how to get the email address into BW for an employee, vendor, or customer? The email address resides in the R/3 table ADR6, however, the email address is not referenced by the employee/vendor/customer number. So I'm not sure how to make the link from employee/vendor/customer master data to the corresponding email address. Any suggesstions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Shelly,
Create a generic funciton module on tables KNA1,.LFA1..with ADRC..
Example:-
For customers go to KNA1 table..for a customer number..and get the field ADRNR.. Retrieve the email info from table ADRC field FLAGCOMM6 based on the address number ADDRNUMBER. Check if the SMTP info is populated in this field for given address number..
Same is the case with vendors..
Go to KNA1 get the addressnumber and retrive the mail info from ADRC table based on address number

Check on vendor email address change before saving PO

Hi All,
I need to check Is there any change in Vendor Email address in PO before
saving. I am trying to find userexits.
I found some like EXIT_SAPMM06E_012, But here I am not getting complete
Vendor address...
Req: I am maintaing multiple email address for Vendor at PO header level.
Here is the path: PO Header --> Address tab --> Click on Address Details
--> Here we can maintain(Insert/ Delete/Change) multiple e mail address.
So I need to check is there any change in email address before saving.
Could you please any body help me on this....
Thanks
Rays

Hello Rays,
One base question,
Are you going to check the vendor email address manually before saving the PO?
The vendor address in the puchase order is copied from the vendor master so you can maintain email address (single or multiple) in the vendor master before creating the purchase order. At the time of purchase order creation/save, you can change the default email address and use this to trigger PO to vendor.
By the way, user exit EXIT_SAPMM06E_012 (Check Customer-Specific Data Before Saving) is used for custom field not for SAP std field.
Hope this helps.

Vendor Change address

Hi All,
In vendor change address(xk02), the field values of "PO Box " & " Postal Code" field were 680 and 15106 respectivly. Now when i am just editing the field value of "PO Box " from 680 to Null (blank) & saving, i am getting the error "Specify PO Box for PO Box Postal Code". I am not changing " Postal Code" field value which is 15106. Need to know why is this error is coming.
Thanks

Hi,
As per the scenario, as you don't want to change you your postal code so you can maintain you postal code in street address heading which is just above P.O.Box address heading. Also go still if fhe problem persists, then go to customizing and make both fields under P.O Box address as display only.
I hope this helps.

Maintain Vendor for the excise invoice

Dear Guru's,
While creating goods receipt (In STO Process), I am facing the following error,
"Maintain Vendor for the excise invoice"
How to solve this one.

Hi CS,
Check whether you had maintained the vendor(supplying plant) in J1ID and also check whether excise indicator 1 is there.
And also check whether vendor (supplying plant ) is linked with customer in vendor master in Account control tab and also check whether vendor master (supplying plant) is linked to your customer master in control data ....
Hope this will serve you..

Vendor/Customer Account Group and Master Records

Hi Gurus,
Please tell me during implementation Vendor/Customer account groups and Master Records will be prepared by FI Consultants or MM, SD Consultants?
Waiting for reply
ThankYOu

Dear Verma
It is the usual practice that FI consultants should prepare Account group and also maintain General data and Company code date in Vendor/Customer masters. SD and MM consultants are informed by FI to maintain Sales and Purchase organization respectively by SD and MM consultants.
If this helps please reward with points.
