Mapping Z account group in ERP to Z BP role in CRM

Hi all,
We have a scenario where we need to download customers created in custom account groups into CRM and map them to Business Partners in Custom BP Role. With PIDE settings, you can only map a Account Group to a CRM classification. This classification is mapped to a standard BP Role in CRM. We also tried to implement the note 914437. But the code given in this note doesn't work as desired. If anyone has implemented this scenario and/or used this SAP note, please advise me on the solution approach.
Thanks & Regards,
Karthik

Hi Krishna,
I have the same required as yours.
I implemented the note 914437.
I noticed two peculiar cases from the standard mapping i.e. (standard BP Role sold to party)
1) In BP transaction, in Display in BP Role drop down list box there is no custom BP Role as shown above but if I select the detail Icon I can find it there as shown in below screen shot.
2) I found in Tx BP there is only one BP Role as shown above but in CRM Web UI there are two BP Roles in the ROLEs assignment block.
Could you please add your comments or solution for it.
Thanks,
Raja

CRM ECC Mapping BP Account Groups

Hello,
I have searched the forum for an answer and I didn't find many answers about this (and what I find I think they are not proven procedures)
Do you have a proven procedure to map 1 Grouping in CRM to 1:n Account groups in ECC.
Thanx in advanced.
Best Regards

Hi Urjose,
In BP t-code, under 'classification' tab, there's a field called "R/3 account group" where you can define the R3 group desired for the partner. This will overpass the PIDE mapping settings at R/3 side.
Don't know if this is what you're looking for, but it is the only alternative I know to your scenario.
Kind regards,

Change Account Group (BU_GROUP) in ERP -- CRM replication

Hi experts,
We are running CRM 7.02.
Customer has a requirement to change the account group in CRM, between 2 account groups in different number ranges.
They currently do this via XD07 in ERP, however, the changes do not replicate fully to CRM.
(CRMM_BUT_FRG0041-ACCOUNT_GROUP is updated by middleware, but BUT000-BU_GROUP is not)
We are thinking to use BADI BUPA_INBOUND to make an enhancement in CRM that will force the account group to be changed in field BUT000-BU_GROUP.
We understand that the account group will no longer align with the assigned number range. This is acceptable from customer perspective.
Are there any other issues that we should be concerned about or made aware of ? Any other customers facing similar requirement / experience ?
Thanks.

Hi Charles!
The Account Group is the essential controlling element in the ERP system. In CRM there is no such concept of the account group that controls all important functions as is the case in ERP. Therefore there is no 1:1 mapping of the account group between ERP and CRM. The account group is mapped to the sales classification in CRM. This allows you to specify which sales classification the business partner receives depending on the account group maintained in ERP. This is why you see the change in table CRMM_BUT_FRG0041. You must specify a numbering group for which the new business partners are assigned their new BP ID in CRM. This is what the BU_GROUP field refers to in BUT000, the numbering group and not the account group. So a change in account group will never change the ID of the BP in CRM. Changing the ID of a BP in CRM can have serious inconsistencies. Note 504265 provides details on this and a possible work around. Hope this helps!

Account Groups in the IDoc is different Message no. B1356

Hi Experts,
We are setting up CfC using the HCI interface, when we make a change on a customer (Which has been sent from ERP), in CfC, we get an inbound IDoc error in ERP "Account group in IDoc is different":
Error Message:
Diagnosis changes cannot be made automatically to the account group of a customer master record. The customer with number 00000XXXXX currently has account group 0020, but the account group 0001 is contained in the intermediate document. Procedure: Please change the account group manually to 0001 and then try to process the intermediate document again.
The error makes sense since account 00000XXXXX was created in ERP with account group 0020. This was then sent to CfC where we have mapped a lot of account groups e.g. (CRM000 = 0001, CRM000 = 0010, CRM000 = 0020 etc.) When we map more account groups to the same internal account role in CfC (Via. Code list mapping), it is required to have one default outboud meaning that every change to an account will be sent with the role 0001 (If that is the default outbound, in this case it is).
We are working with multiple account groups comming from ERP, all these account groups are Sold Tos, therefore we need to be able to send data from CfC to ERP, without the IDoc getting stuck in the validation.
I was told in a CfC training session from SAP, that Sold tos should always be mapped to CRM000, therefore I haven't created different roles for different account groups.
Do you have any recommendations on this issue? Is it recommended to create new Roles in CfC for every account group (remember that these are all sold tos, so they should work exactly as the standard role CRM000), or do we need to work with somekind of BAdi in inboud for ERP? Any thoughts are ideas?
Best Regards
Anders

for information, I found this note 1914662, I think this will solve the issue.

I've searched high and low for an answer and nothing I find on-line seems to apply. I also notice that the option to 'Run as Administrator' does not work. If I right-click on cmd.exe and select 'run as administrator', the command box opens but
I am not prompted for credentials and the command box does not have admin rights. Not sure if this is related or not.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Delete your remove action from the GPP and push it again, does this issue still occur?
If it still exists, let’s collect the GPP log for analysis:
Group policy Preference debug logging policy settings are located under:
Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Group Policy
Click Logging and tracing, select local users and group preference logging and trace.
Meanwhile, just a similar issue, but it is worth trying:
A user is added to the wrong group on a client computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2

Questions about Mapping GL Accounts to Group Accounts

Hi,
I have some questions about mapping gl accounts to group accounts while configuring OBIEE APPS 7.9.6.3 with EBS R12 as a source:
FIRST QUESTION.-
For file file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv, I have the following accounts from my customer:
101101 - Caja Administrativa
101102 - Fondo Revolvente
101103 - Caja de Cambios
101104 - Efectivo en cajero
This group of accounts is named CASH, now my customer said that this group begins in 101101 and ends in 101199 but in this moment only have this 4 accounts in GL, the rest of the accounts, I mean 101105-101199 are not used right now, they are gonna used in the future.
So, my question is, in file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv how I need to put this group:
In this way:
CHART OF ACCOUNTS ID,FROM ACCT,TO ACCT,GROUP_ACCT_NUM
50308,101101,101104,CASH
Or in this way:
CHART OF ACCOUNTS ID,FROM ACCT,TO ACCT,GROUP_ACCT_NUM
50308,101101,101199,CASH
I mean, is there any problem if I use the second way, or is necessary to do it in the first way, and why?
SECOND QUESTION.-
For file file_group_acct_names.csv, when I update with a new group of accounts, is there any rule or size boundary for GROUP_ACCOUNT_NAME?
THIRD QUESTION.-
For file_group_acct_names.csv, what is the value in column LANGUAGE? I mean, is EBS language?, DB language?, server language?
I hope that someone can help me, because I need to clarify this and don't do the first full load and this load ends with error because of this.
Regards,
Arnulfo

I'll take some broad swipes at this and let the smarter people come fill in the details.
We have a true 1:1 setup in our office and have moved to PHDs as a means of protecting against downtime. The thinking is that we will have a spare machine lying around with our base installation ready to go. If a user's machine fails we'll replace it with the spare machine, let it sync the user directory from the server, and we're back in business. It's no substitute for a real backup system, but it potentially avoids having to run a restore from your backups. It also reduces network traffic compared to plain networked homes, and still lets your users work if the server goes down, but provides the benefits of centralized management. John DeTroye wrote a nice article about this.
If you've already got data on your "client" Mac you will need to move it onto the server. PHDs will download data from the server to the client on the first sync, but will not upload a complete home directory from the client to an empty directory on the server. You'll find some posts in this forum discussing how people have gone about migrating data prior to that first sync.
WGM allows you to establish exclusions for stuff you don't want to sync.
One thing to watch out for in the scenario you describe is the so-called "rabbit effect." Assume Bob uses Mac1 as his primary machine. If one day he logs into Mac2 his home directory will be downloaded to Mac2. Once he returns to Mac1 he'll still be cluttering up Mac2 with his data. If he logs into Mac3 the next day and Tom and Sue are also periodically logging into different machines, you can see how you'll end up with a mess pretty quickly.
Hope this helps.

MDG-S BP Grouping,BP Role,BP Categeory and ERP Vendoe Account Group

Hi
Can anybody explains me releationship between MDG-S BP Grouping,BP Role,BP Categeory and ERP Vendoe Account Group?
It seems there is no requried field except Change Request Description.If we input value for CR Description only, we can still able to sumbit and activate CR and Bussiner Partner ID (Which is internally generated) will be stored in MDG stagging table for entity type BP_HEADER.
My question is then what is use of BP Grouping,BP role in this as it contains blank value? Also it observed that for new ERP Vendor the Account Group field is always in non editable mode,Any reason for this? Same issue with Company Code after selecting CC it displayed as non editable field before submitting CR as well.

Hi Sanjay,
When you select New -> Organization, below screen comes, In Grouping drop down you need to select Vendor Account Group and in Role list enter role.
Follow same procedure when you want to create next vendor.
Under new pushbutton, you will get three options:
Organization means when you want to create vendor.
Person means you are creating person not vendor, these person you can assign as a contact person to the vendor in Relationship tab.

Sudhir

Account group mapping is not uderstand ?

Hi Experts,
I am not understanding the mapping between the account groups.
If you check under "Customer Account Group" the field name "Group", I dont understand where it is mapping to other account group?
And how all the account groups linked with eachother? (G/L, Customer, Vendor)
Please check..
Thanks

Hi,
i had the same error 'account group DEBI not defined - CRM_BUPA_FRG0040' when trying to download my R/3 IS-U business partner from R/3 -> CRM. I checked PIDE settings, groupings and number ranges (internal/ext) settings dozens of times and had no explanation.
I made the same experience that suddenly my BP were downloaded when i DELETED the entry in PIDE (but they were created in CRM not in the customized number range)
The final reason was that i did not properly download all the csutomizing mentioned in the
SAP best practice building block configuration guide B09
There the object DNL_CUST_KTOKD was mentioned - it contains the R/3 account groups which have to be transferred to CRM in spite of the fact that CRM business partners don`t have an account group
For the sales data the replication object CUSTOMER_MAIN has to be used - this contains the R/3 IS-U SD customer. The replication object BUPA_MAIN contains the R/3 IS-U Business partner. This is also the reason why downloading BUPA_MAIN might work even without the proper account group settings in PIDE, the PIDE settings are important for the R/3 SD customers

Mapping EBS account codes to Group Account Numbers - Customization

Hi,
I want to map the account codes that are present in the Oracle EBS to BI Mappings.
I am aware of the changes to be made to the following three files:
■ file_group_acct_names.csv - this file specifies the group account names and their corresponding group account codes.
■ file_group_acct_codes_ora.csv - this file maps General Ledger accounts to group account codes.
■ file_grpact_fsmt.csv - this file maps Financial Statement Item Codes to group account codes.
The overview of my case is as flows:
The client requires the general accounts to be clubbed into different sub-groups based on their reporting practices. This would lead to generation of around 60-70 odd group account numbers. My queries are as follows:
1.There are cases where accounts belonging to a single parent account needs to be bifurcated into two different group account numbers. In that case, to which group account number should the parent account be classified?
2.Can we go about modifying the existing group account numbers and adding new group account numbers as long as we are able to categorize them in the existing 6 financial statement buckets?
3.What are the changes needed to be done in the RPD file to reflect the changes made to the group account numbers? Any documentation highlighting the same would be highly helpful.
Thanks,

Account group assignment in Webclient UI

Hello,
I want to assign an account group to an existing corporate account for R/3 integration.
In SAP GUI I can do this in transaction BP on the Classification tab (BUPA_CRMD02-ACCOUNT_GROUP).
I'm not able to find the corresponding field in the Webclient UI. Can you please tell me the
Component and View for this?
Kind regards,
Johan Wigert

Hello Johann,
please take care of the following additional information:
When creating an account with the proper roles, e.g. sold-to-party,
in the CRM Webclient UI there should be automatically a classification
be maintained in the background for this partner.
When this partner with this classification reaches the ERP system the
settings in transaction PIDE are automatically mapping the
classification to the account groups you maintained there.
The account group field in CRM itself is only there if you want to
manually overrule this determination set up in transaction PIDE on
ERP side. This is not a often used scenario, so the respective field
was not put on the SAP delivery configuration for accounts in the new
UI.
However you can easily add it yourself in the view configurations,
e.g. in view BP_HEAD/AccountDetails it can be found under the name
'Account group', technical name '//MARKETING/STRUCT.ACCOUNT_GROUP'.
During the time of download of the customer master record in the trx.
PIDE the determination of the classification takes place. In case the
classification is 'B' (customer) then the role is defaulted to
CRM000(sold-to-party). In case you want to create the BPs in different
role then you may follow the instructions in the note 914437.

Hi Anna,
It all depends on how your Group GL account is linked to Operational GL account in BW. In the BW, you can make Group GL account Info object as an attribute of Operational GL account Info object (0GL_Account). Then in the Load data stream method configuration, you can map 0CS_Item to Group GL account as an attribute of 0GL_account, on 1 to 1 basis. You have to be sure that in the Source Data Basis, you have Operational GL account data available with the attribute of Group GL account.
2. Non-implementation of new GL does not make a difference.

Different field groups in the different account groups

Dear IT Experts,
I´m working on restructuring authorization in roles concerning the IC and TP customers.
The goal of this changes is be able to have different field groups in the different account groups (TP and IC), for give you some more detail a good example can be, the same AMS user should be able to change general data and sales views for TP customers but for IC he should only be allowed to change the sales views, however when the changes are made in the roles they are being ignored because as far as I could check the system does not have as a rule that the field groups are or can be dependent from the account group...
I can give you a clear example:
Role A
F_KNA1_AEN -> VGRUP = 10-16
F_KNA1_GRP -> ACTVT = 01, 02, 03
F_KNA1_GRP -> KTOKD = INTR
Role B
F_KNA1_AEN -> VGRUP = 16
F_KNA1_GRP -> ACTVT = 01, 02, 03
F_KNA1_GRP -> KTOKD = THIR
Despite it looks fine, the system is not validating the account group with the correspondent field group in each role, so the field groups that the system use is unique, it means it the content of the object F_KNA1_AEN in total independently of used account group!
So my question is, can we apply any other object that makes the field group being directly depending of the account group, as we can see for example activities for each account group having something similar for field group and account group?
Can someone please explain me step-by-step how I can do this work even if by another method?
I´m quite new on this issues and I really need your wisdom to find a solution for this.
Many thanks
Katjia

Hi Manoj
The debate is each inidividual business unit has defined different account groups for the same vendor in their respective systems.
The question is : What is the best practice-- Should we keep Vendor account group as main table field and define Vendors with one unique account groups OR we maintain the account group in qualified table each pointing to different business unit.
In my opinion this is going to be very complex solution. Ideally we need to define all the Harmonization rules before syndicating data to different target systems.
Is this possibel that the same vendor record which is existing as vendor of different account groups in different systems have same set of attributes. If yes then enabling the remote key for Account group Lookup field is one option and defining a unique Account group 'AG" (which is mapped to say AG1 from remote system1, AG2 from remote system2 and so on..)..
Managing this via Qualified table will be very complex and not advisabel. As Rajesh also mentioned Account Group in MDM should be considered as Global attribute and all such harmonization rules should be defined in your project. AG1=AG2=AG in above exmaple.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks-Ravi
