Mass updation of Vendor account group

Dear FICO gurus
Found XK07 -Individual processing to change Vendor account group, but issue is i need to change for more than 2500 vendors. Can any one suggest the alternative t.code as solution (apart from LSMW/BDC).
Thanks in advance
Deepak

Hi,
You can use transaction MASS, enter LFA1, select table LFA1. Select the account group field, enter the value of the account group you want to change and execute. This will bring up a list of all vendors with that account group. Enter the new vendor account group and execute. All vendors with the old account group will be updated with the new vendor account group. However, you must have all fields settings the same on both account groups for this to work.

Vendor Account Group block

Hi All,
When any user tries to create Purchage Order against vendors belongs to one account group (Ex. KRED Vendor account group), system should not allow.
Is it possible to have this functionality ?

Regards

Hello Murali,
You can block those vendors that belongs to KRED using MASS functionality
You can also update that quickly via LSMW
If there is few number of vendor that belongs to this group you can ask users to do it

Change vendor account group

Hi All,
Is there anything I need to check before changing vendor account group (with different number ranges) in XK07. User has selected account group wrongly and also posting done for those vendors.
I think there would be no effect in open items.
Thanks,
Vishal

Dear Mr. Visal,
please be so kind to review the documentation regarding the transaction XK07:-
"Changes to the account group and the accompanying partner functions
can only be made from a lower level to a higher level. For example,
this means that a sold-to party cannot be assigned the function of a
payer as fields which have already been maintained for this sold-to
party would have to be masked. However, you can assign the sold-to
party function to a payer."
Therefore, you can change from an account group with fields set as
not visible to optional fields. However, if you are trying to change
an account group with optional fields to other account group with any
of this fields invisible, the system will give you the error message
"You cannot make this change because the new account group
   results in the following field groups being switched off:"
And you will not be able to change the account group. This will happen
although you have not updated a value for these optional fields.
Really it depends on which is the field you want to change; there are
some fields that could produce some data inconsistency (reconciliation
account, withholding tax data, and so on).
Please consider that the account group controls the successing
screens and field layout plus it controls whether the numbering
should be internal or external.
Please take in consideration all the above information before doing it.
I hope this can help You.

Vendor account group sensitive field mail trigger

Dear All,
We have configured the sensitive field in vendor master so that whenever someone change the sensitive field mail get trigger to that users.
Here problem is for employee vendors also that mail gets triggerd.
So we want excluse those vendor account groups from this sensitive field.
Is this possible?

thanks for your quick reply.

Whenever we are changing the sensitive field it will go and sit inthe FK08 transaction.
then some one has to confirm or reject then only it will get update that field.

MIRO block invoice by vendor account group

Dear All,
We have requirement, for vendor account group:intercompany vendor, no matter the GR, IV difference, the invoice should not be blocked during MIRO
But for normal third party vendor, over 5%, the IV should be blocked in MIRO
Is it through standard config can do this? Can you guide me?

Check in SPRO configuration OMRX-Configure vendor specific tolerances if you can maintain different tolerance groups for company code and then assign these tolerance groups in vendor masters of the relevant account group accordingly, through MASS or similar other transaction.
Thanks and regards

How to avoid duplication of vendor name and vendor account group

Let me know the menu path for setting in SAP - controlling / avoid duplication vendor name and vendor account group in one purchasing organisation during creation of vendor / uploading mass data.

vv

Hi,
See vendor code is unique no. But the name is not at all unique. so system allow to create duplicate record.
by giving authorization to single person only you can do it.
system discipline is actually required

Questions: Vendor Account Group and Purchasing Organization

Dear SAP experts,
I'm just a novice user and would like to have your advice on the following questions:
1. How to change Vendor Account Group
Vendor has been created already with wrong account group. Can we change account group??
2. How to add Purchasing Organization
Vendors have been created without purchasing organization. When we try to raise contract, error msg. mentioned that "There is no purchasing organization for this vendor number"
Can we add purchasing organization to that vendors?? If so, could you pls let me know the procedure.
Thanks with rgds,
Su

Hello,
Changing Vendor Account Group is not possible. Block the wrongly created vendor (FK05) & create a new vendor under correct group (FK01). Transfer all the balances from wrong vendor to new vendor code.
Use Transaction code XK01 to extend the Vendor to purchasing organization. XK01 would allow to enter purchasing view of the vendor.

Vendor account group definition

Are the delivered vendor account groups and their number ranges considered best practice or is this field one that the users decide on the number ranges and which vendor account groups to use.
What is the SAP recommendation on vendor account groups we don't plan to use?
Thank you.
Cindy Collins

Hi,
It depends on the nomenclature of number you would like to use. If you are ok with the number ranges provided then ynu can go ahead. Check in XKN1 if system allows you to use that i think it will let you. For diffrent vendor account group you should use unique number ranges that could easily distinguish them like for local vendor account group you can use 1xxxxx and foreign vendor account group you should different number range. Hence number ranges provided in standard template can be used for vendor creation. Hope it answers your question.

Vendor account group assign to Reconciliation account

Hello Experts,
Is it possible to customize a reconciliation account assignment to vendor account group?
Our requirement is when you create a vendor, then select a vendor account group, the reconciliation account will automatically be proposed in the field. This is to avoid selecting wrong reconciliation account when creating a vendor.
I had a look in SPRO but I couldn't find anything that could do that.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Catherine

Thanks for your inputs,
I have checked in the system if there is a user_exit. Could you please confirm me that the user_exit "GLPLAN00 - Enhanced authorization and master data validation" is the good one?
My objective is to have the correct reconciliation account automatically populated when I am creating a customer/vendor with a specific account group.
e.g. select account group - XXXX Non-trade customer / Reconciliation acct XXXXXX non trade customer automatically populated.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Vendor Account Group & Range Vendor Codes

Hi, The users want to know as to how can we determine the Account Group to which the particular Vendor belongs. Is there a report that would give the Vendor Account Group assigned to a particular Vendor Master?
Also how can we know the range that has been defined to the Vendor Masters - i.e. automatic coding or manual coding.
Your help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Hi,
You can see the info about AcctGroup in LFA1 table (SE16N transaction or build a SQVI for this). The number ranges are stored in NRIV table (KREDITOR object name). In the table T077K you can see the assignment of AcctGroup to a number range. Thus, combinig this info in a simple query, you can build a report.

Vendor Account group and recon account

Hi,
I have 2 vendor account groups:
1) ZLOC- For domestic vendors
2) ZIMP- For Import Vendors.
My requirement is when I am creating the vendor master, the recon account meant for local vendors should automatically get selected and for import vendors recon meant for import vendor should be selected.
this is required to avoid entry errors by users. currently they are selecting by drop down and made mistakes.
Regards

Hi,
In std SAP, I don't think it is possible.
We have to maintain it manually.
It's not a day to day activity so very few chances of mistake by user.
