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.
Regards,
Sudhir

Group based on value range and order with in group

Hi All,
I have a scenario like to group record set based on a value set.
Example.
Table data_table has 10 columns of which one column grouping_col can have value from 10 - 100
i have to retreive a report with multiple order by clause with a precondition that
record having grouping_col having 10-50 should be processed first then,
record having grouping_col having 50-60 should be processed next and then so on untill 100.
Is there a way to do this without union funcitonality.

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.

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.

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

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

Account group in the customer master record.

Hi .
Why we have to use the ACCOUT GROUP For customer.
Account group differs for sold to party, ship to party, bill to party and payer.
but when we create a sales order if we enter the sold to party automatically the ship ,bill and payer will be taken by the system.
can any one give me the sufficient solution for this.
thanks
Devi Reddy

Hi,
For customer creation ACCOUNT GROUP plays a vital role.
Based on this Account Group only, concerned Fields will be activated. Thats why, when we create a Sold to pary it will ask for much information in all the tabs, where as, for ship to, bill to and payer all these fields are not required.
using the path : IMG -> Logistics General -> Business Partners -> Customer -> Control -> Define Transaction Dependent Screen Layout -> double click on Create Customer (sales)
here you can activate or make mandatory or optional all the fileds which are available in different tabs of the customer master.
And This you can do based on account groups also
Goto T.Code OBD2, select the account group (say 0001 sold to) and you can activate make which are all the fileds required for that customer. Like this you can do for all the account groups, so whenever u create the customer master based on that account group only those fileds will be asked by system.
For sold to party, we require all the info like sales, shipment, billing and parnter funtion. But for ship to you need only shiping data, for bill to you need only billing data, for payer you need billing also. for all these general data is required.
And where as for your second query, when you create a sales order automatically ship to, payer , bill to will come automatically based on what you maintaine in the sold to customer master. By default when you create a sold to, partner functions will be taken as the same for ship to, bill to , payer. Then you have to create different customers using account groups shipto, bill to and payer and those customer numbers you maintain in the sold to customer master -> Sales Area data -> partner functions.
Then whenever you create the sales order, differnt customer will be picked based on that data.
Hope this is clear.
Thanks

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.

XK03 can be restricted by account group in order to prevent general users

Hello Gurus,
Please advise, if XK03 can be restricted by account group in order to prevent general user population from displaying employee data ?
I understand that XK03 has auth object F_LFA1_GRP for account group in which I restricted with 03 and particular account groups but still the test is failing because the test user is able to view employee data.
Please suggest..
Regard's
Salman

Hi Alex,
Thank you !
By your last update, do you mean auth group or account group? If you are talking about auth group then this auth object F_LFA1_BEK (XK03) has auth group.
I checked the F_LFA1_GRP is active in SU24. Is there something which i need to look in F_LFA1_BEK for particular auth group after restricting the auth object F_LFA1_GRP with account group ?
Thank you for your valuable suggestions

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.

For seeing vendor recon account against account group make use of table LFB1 and for customer account recon account make use of KNB1...Choose account group in selection and in output keep account group and recon account or any other field desired. This will meet your requirement.
Apologies...wrong table names were written mistakenly
