Maintainance of Postal code of chinese address

Hi,
I just wanted to maintain a master data of first of our Chinese Vendor. Our Chinese vendor did not provide us the postal code with his address. I have a choice to deactivate the postal code of all Chinese address in customizing then it will not ask me any more.
Can any body tell me, whether the addresses in china are written always with the postal code and my vendor has forgotten it to mention?
Is there any website where I can find this information?
Thank you

Hi,
We have chinese vendors/customers with or without postal code. I guess, postal code is optional for the region CN.
Best Regards,
Madhu

Regarding Postal Code Issue in Address

Hello all,
I have one question regarding the postal code.
When we enter a postal code which is 01987 for example in the plant. why does SAP remove the 0 in front of 1987. any idea??
When we create a PO as well the postal code picks up only 1987 but the 0 is left out...
What is the reason behind this... my client wants the 0 as well... what do we do to get the whole postal code which is 01987.
Please guide...
Thanks in Advance
Thanks & Regards,
Kiran V

I cannot really believe this as postal code is a character field, and in my system the leading zero is definitly not removed.
do you have the same issue in vendor master and customer master?
Maybe you have a validation for that field which removes this value.
In IMG > SAP NetWeaver > general settings > country definitions > country specific checks
is defined what checking rule is used for the postal code.

Hi,
Check the settings for the country you are maintaining the following path -
SPRO>>SAP NetWeaver>>General Settings>>Set Countries>>Set Country-Specific Checks.
In this check for the country what settings have been maintained for postal code. Also do a F1 to see the help on the checking rule field.
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,

Maps shows incorrect postal code

The maps app shows an incorrect postal code for my address. It is showing the one for the block next to my house - maybe it's because I live on a corner lot. Is there any way this can be fixed? Google maps shows the correct postal code.

Yes, Google maps shows the correct postal code.
I am trying to use "remind me at a location" in the "Reminders" app. I have two choices for my home location: one with my correct street address and incorrect postal code, and one with another address in the neighbourhood that uses the same postal code (which is correct for that street address). I don't think there should be two addresses, but, nevertheless, I choose the one that has my street address and incorrect postal code. The reminder does not alert me.
I have contaced the map developers through "report a problem" in the app, but they must get many reports, so who knows how long it will take to correct the problem if they can even do it!

Postal Code not appearing correctly thru ADDRESS statement

Hi,
I am using ADDRESS - ENDADDRESS to write company code address.
Now, Postal Code of one of the co code is maintained as
5605 LS. However, in the form it is appearing without space i.e
5605LS.
I just noticed that in function module ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM, once postal code is entered into the string , there is a CONDENSE statement with NO-GAPS that suppresses the spaces.
Kindly advise how i can print postal code with space correctly in form using ADDRESS - ENDADDRESS .
Thanks
Nidhi

Hi Sohit,
We all know that the address will be generated from the FM 'ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM' into a work area. That work area will be of type adrs_print. So that work area contains 10 lines of the address.
Now just observe the line into which the Postal code is populating. Then take that line value i.e for example l_wa_address-line4 into a variable and separate the number(5605) and string (LS).
concatenate v_postalcode0(4) ' ' v_postalcode4(2) INTO v_string.
Then write the below code:
READ TABLE out_tab ASSIGNING <fs_outtab> INDEX l_c_5.
 IF sy-subrc = 0.
 <fs_outtab>-value = v_string.
 ENDIF.
I hope this trick works. Try it out & let me know in case of any issues.
Don't forget to reward if this is useful.

ESS: Addresses check on postal code based on country

Hi,
    We have implemented ESS addresses for non standard country by reusing the existing application.
    One of the requirement is to enforce postal code validation based on the selected country (for specific subtypes).
    Is this validation applies by default or we need to do any customizing / enhancement ?
Thanks & Regards,
SuresH.

Usually which country you resuse, those checls are avalable automatically
You can also do so using CL_HRPA_INFOTYPE_0006_XX SPECIFIC_COMPUTATIONS
xx for country you are using
or check here too V_T005_BAS

Display address omitted postal code for all countries in sapscript

Hi everyone
Does anyone know how to omit the postal code for all countries(eg. US ) when displaying address in sapscript form?
I want to avoid to display postal code even the country is US.
coz my firm doesn't want to show postal code.....
Also, how to use combination keys of PRIORITY parameter?
For example, if i want PRIORITY '1' 'S' 'L' 'N' 'C'
I cannot write like this as following....
/: ADDRESS DELIVERY PARAGRAPH AS PRIORITY 1 S L N C LINES 5
/: ADDRESSNUMBER &VBDKR-ADRNR_WE(K)&
/: FROMCOUNTRY &VBDKR-SLAND&
/: ENDADDRESS

Hi,
Bold text describes the usage of Priority.
ADDRESS: Formatting of addresses
The command ADDRESS - ENDADDRESS formats an address according to the postal standards of the
destination country defined in the parameter COUNTRY. The reference fields are described in the
structure ADRS. Both constants and symbols can be assigned to the parameters.
Syntax:
/: ADDRESS [DELIVERY] [PARAGRAPH a] [PRIORITY p] [LINES l]
/: TITLE title
/: NAME name1[,name2[,name3[,name4]]]
/: STREET street
/: POBOX PO box [CODE zip code]
/: POSTCODE zip code
/: CITY town1[,town2]
/: REGION region
/: COUNTRY country
/: FROMCOUNTRY from country
/: ENDADDRESS
Both formatting data and address data are given as parameters. Address data is formatted for output in accordance with the parameters COUNTRY, PRIORITY and LINES. If available, the P.O. box is used instead of the street as the default.
DELIVERY: Defines the street address. If this parameter is selected, the system prints the street address on the layout output instead of the P.O. box.
PARAGRAPH: Defines in which paragraph format the address is output. If the parameter is not defined, the address is output in the default paragraph format.
PRIORITY: Defines which address lines can be omitted if necessary. You can enter a combination of the following values:
A form of address
P mandatory blank line 1
Q mandatory blank line 2
2 name2
3 name3
4 name4
L name of country
S line for the street
O line for the city

LINES: Defines how many lines are available for formatting the address. If all the address data cannot be formatted due to an insufficient number of lines, the data entered in the parameter PRIORITY is omitted. If the LINES specification is missing and this command is in a layout set window whose type is not MAIN, the lines available for the address layout are then calculated automatically by means of the current output line item and window size.
TITLE: Required form of address.
NAME: Up to four separate names, separated by commas, can be defined.
STREET: Street specification including address number.
POBOX: Post Office box number.
CODE: P.O. box Postal or ZIP code if it is different from the postal code of the city.
POSTCODE: Postal or ZIP code of the city.
CITY: Up to two place names can be defined.
REGION: Determines the administrative area.
COUNTRY: Specifies the country according to whose specific postal standards the address is formatted.
FROMCOUNTRY: Defines in which language the name of the destination country is formatted. In EC countries, only the international country identification letter is put before the postal code with a hyphen.
Example:
/: ADDRESS
/: TITLE Company
/: NAME Widget Technology, Inc., All Kind of Widgets
/: STREET 1005 Lido Lane
/: POBOX 2935 CODE 94400
/: POSTCODE 94404
/: CITY Foster City
/: REGION CA
/: COUNTRY USA
/: FROMCOUNTRY USA
/: ENDADDRESS
Generates the following address:
Company
Widget Technology, Inc.
All Kind of Widgets
PO box 2935
Foster City, CA 94400
If the supplement DELIVERY is specified for the command ADDRESS, then the street is entered instead of
the PO box.
Company
Widget Technology, Inc.
All Kind of Widgets
1005 Lido Lane
Foster City, CA 94404

Clearing the the street,Postal code and city in partner tab at sales order

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement like in sales order header or Item, In partners tab, when they are selecting the particular partner function like CR and the customer number is 500, and if they press enter then automaticaly it fetches the name,street,postal code and city at the right side for that entry. My requirement is like for particular customer 700, they want to hide the customer address in that Partner tab while sales order creation VA01. If they select the partner function CR and customer 700, after pressing enter, it shouldn't fetch the automatic address of that customer. They just want the customer name and remaining fields like street,postal code,city should be blank.
Can you please let me know how to reach this requirement ate sales order creation or change level in partner function tab.
I test these exits EXIT_SAPLV09A_001 to EXIT_SAPLV09A_004 but no use. Let me know possible ways to achieve this?
Any idea on these?
Thanks in advance ,
Edited by: dolly B on Jan 18, 2010 11:36 AM

Hi,
This is happening because you have not maintained your data in sales order.
Billing document takes the reference of order and delivery document for taking the data.
Now if you donu2019t maintain your partner function in order nor in delivery then it wont be determine in billing document.
If you want ZZ to shown in billing document then you have to make that function visible in sales order.
While creating sales order it will take it from customer master data but when you are creating billing it wont search in customer master data it will search in sales order only.
You can do one thing make that function non modifiable in partner determination procedure.
So it cant be change in sales order.
But I want to know why you want that should not be visible in sales order.
Hope so I will be correct with my explanation.
Regards
Raj.

Wild Card Postal Codes in Transportation Zones and Postal Code Range in TCM

Hello Experts,
I have 2 queries on Postal Codes usability in SAP TM:
1. Postal Code Transportation Zones:
Business Scenario: Some countries have non-numeric Postal Codes and you can not maintain From and To Postal Code range. System supports Postal Code to be entered as Wild Card (XY1*) in Transportation Zone but does not respect them during charge calculation.
2. Postal Code Range in Rate Table:
There are standard Calculation Bases for Source/Destination Postal Code Range but these do not allow maintaining values like Source Postal Code Range (90100-90199) to Destination Postal Code Range (63100-63199). I am unable to understand the use of these 2 calculation bases since they do not accept range.
Kindly suggest.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Vikas Chhabra

I start with the first question: Well, well, well. Probably one of the most underestimated topics in the transportation network. A bit of a background: Postal codes are alphanumeric meaning they allow numbers and characters. Of course for some countries only numbers are required and those are pretty easy to handle. Nevertheless, SAP produces global software and there are countries having postal codes with unfixed length, character first, in the middle, at the end. This makes ranges ugly, tough, sometimes impossible.
The range definition works alphanumeric, which is a position to position comparison based on single chars. You can check the inclusion results in excel or with any database. For the zone definition this can mean that you are forced to enter postal codes and no ranges. Of course this blows up the maintenance effort in the beginning, but ensures the correctness.
I was surprised by your comment that the zone definition allows '*' because this would make this whole thing even more complicated and error prone. I tested it and it does not work, at least for Germany. I think in the address definition per country you can define valid formats for postal codes and there '*' is not valid for Germany. The transportation zone location inclusion will not work with pattern!
In case you have manages to maintain this: I would advise to take the effort and enter at least valid ranges.

Postal Code and Region relationship in AR customer

Hi,
Is there a table that maintain the relationship between Postal Code and Region?
If User keyed in the postal code, it would be able to identify the region.
Is there a place to configure it in SPRO?
Thanks
Bye

Hi,
As it was suggested in different threads, you may think to continue updating the address with the BAPI_ADDRESS** and right after the commit, simply trigger XD02 transaction in batchinput + ensuring that ZAV_FLAG is checked in the initial screen then save. This would re-synchronise the master data with the address.
An alternative in one step would be to trigger class CMD_EI_API directly with one of the MAITAIN methods.
Additionallly, SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL is used in standard during the maintenance of a consumer using the standard customer master data transaction XD01 & XD02.
It is not intended to be used out of the transaction and in no case it should be used out of its original context. Due to the specificity of the function module, out of the original context we may face limitations and data inconsistencies.
This is precisely what you face in your case.
For the maintenance of customers, there is NO BAPI and NO direct function module.
There are some functions modules like the one above where the name is looking nice. But these should not be used.
Below ECC 2005 (6.00), the only solution was batch input and DEBMAS idocs. See note 384462
Starting with ECC 2005 (6.00) and above: a synchronisation tool has been introduce. See class CMD_EI_API and VMD_EI_API
Hope this helps

Which address format to choose for Chinese addresses?

Hi;
In Addressbook, I'm trying to enter a Chinese address. I'm standing in Beijing, can't get more Chinese than this.
A Chinese address looks like this:
中国北京市东城区东中街20号3号楼1311 100022
Chinese addresses go from country (中国) first to apartment number (1311) in a single stream, with the postal code last for sorting.
This has nothing to do with the Address format when I choose "China" under "Change Address Format". Is there another "China" that I should select?
Any help would be appreciated -- I'd like to preserve as much of the chinese characters and formatting as I can.
Additionally, if I can manually create a format that goes:
Country-Province-City-District-address postal
... then I'd at least preserve the chinese formatting.
Thanks...

Postal code must have length 05: Solution

I am trying to create a business partner in solution manager and i am getting the message "Postal code must have length 05". Can anyone please help

Hi,
Postal code & PO Box are linked and postal code is dependent on PO Box and this is dependent on country etc selected in the upper box
is it really necessary to maintain or are you going to print it somewhere....
see the help for PO BOX
Only enter the PO Box number in this field. The text "PO Box" is provided in the recipient language by the system when you print the address.
When you print an address, the "Street address" and the "PO Box address" are distinguished. The print program determines which of them has priority if both are maintained in an address record.

Unable to make Postal code as required field in Vendor master creation

Hi,
We have a requirement of making Postal code (POST_CODE1) field under street address of new vendor master creation/change as a required field.
In the configuration settings of vendor account group (OBD3), SAP provided Postal code City combined as only one field.
Even after making the Postal code&City field as required in the configuration of a particular Vendor group (OBD3), the system is allowing to create new vendor master under that particular group with out the input of Postal code.
The system only making the city (CITY1) as required filed but not the Postal code (POST_CODE1) even after setting Postal code&City field as required in OBD3.
Could you please provide the activities to be performed apart from the above so as to make Postal code as required filed at the time of the vendor master creation/change
Regards
Mani Prasad

Yes, it is country specific. It will affect in vendor masters as well Customer masters.
You have two options now :
Create a Transaction variant using SHD0 and Make Postal code field as required and create a custom transaction code in SE93 (Transaction with Variant (Variant transaction) and assign here and save. Your requirement will be fulfilled.
Else you can go for Enhancement using EXIT_SAPMF02K_001 Vendors: User Exit for Checks prior to Saving
The following user exits exist for vendor master records:
o Check entered data before saving
Please refer to the interface description of the function module to see which data is available.
If we found any other solution we will let you know the same.
