Open Customer for Multiple Sales Areas

We need that when we save a customer from a specific sales area this customer will be opened automaticly in several sales areas and company codes (because of buisness reasons we do not use consumers).
I was not able to find a function/BADI that gives this functionality.
Please asssit,
Uri Dembo

Hello Uri
Please correct my understanding
What you are saying is , when you create a customer in a specific sales area, it should get extended to rest of the sales areas, is that what you are saying?
If yes, then you might want to take help from your technical folks (Abapers) for auto extension of customer in other areas.
Before you do that, it is essential to understand that you have the right configuration in place.

Error while posting Customer with Multiple sales areas using DEBMAS05.

Dear experts,
We are generating IDOCS vis SAP DS for posting Customer master. The message type used is DEBMAS and basic type is DEBMAS05. we have a requirement to create 1 customer with multiple sales areas. However, we are ending up with a strange error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1". Despite the IDOC going into status 51, the customer gets created and the 1st sales area too. the 2nd sales area however is not created! The IDOC data definitely contains Name1, otherwise the customer would not have been created in the first place.
As the error message is related to the Address data, I also explored upon exploring this erorr further on the lines of Central Address management where in the ADRMAS and DEBMAS have to be passed together(IDOC Serialiization). OSS Note (384462) provides further details about this. One Important point from the note is:
"As you have to specify the logical name of the sending system among other things, SAP is not able to make any default settings in the standard systems. When you use the serialization groups delivered as a standard by SAP, the address objects are imported before the master objects.Thus the sequence address data before master objects must only be adhered to if one of the following points applies to your application:
Such fields are set as required entry fields that are only provided by the BAS in the Customizing of the customer or vendor master.
For your customers, contact persons exist to which a private address or a different business address is assigned.".
This is not the case in our situation, as we do not have required entry fields in customizing that are only provided by the BAS, so the error is all the more confusing and I am not too sure what the cause is.
If someone have experienced the same issue before and have found a solution to it, kindly help out.

I have found the cause and solution to this problem.
This error ”Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1” and other similar errors like “Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-SORT1“ which occurrs during the IDOC posting when there are more than one sales area or company code occurs when the customer number range is set up for Internal numbering. This means, that the number gets generated only at the time of save and upon debugging the IDOC, we found out that after creating the customer and the first sales area/company code record, the segment E1KNA1M is cleared completely! This is the reason, it throws an error which points to a mandatory KNA1 field as missing. (Like NAME1, SORT1 etc.)
This was resolved by splitting the IDOC into 2.
The solution is to First post only the KNA1 segment and create the customer.
In the second step, pass the IDOC with all other segments along with E1KNA1M, but pass only KUNNR in E1KNA1M and the rest of the fields in E1KNA1M as “/”: you would have got the KUNNR after the first step.
Important note: This requirement to split the IDOCs does not occur when the customer number is known upfront. (Meaning cases where the customer number is externally generated) I also tested this and created a customer with external numbering and I was able to post more than 1 sales area with the same IDOC.
I noticed multiple threads with the same issue, but none of it had a concrete answer. I hope this information will be useful for anyone facing similar problems.

Need to Create Customer Master Data under Multiple Sales Areas

Hi Gurus,
         My requirement is to create a customer under multiple sales areas by processing the Inbound Idoc function module "IDOC_INPUT_DEBITOR"( After generating Outbound Idoc and outbound is processed successfully).
         But, when I am trying to send the multiple sales areas information in segment "E1KNVVM". It is creating the customer under first sales area filled in first E1KNVVM segment and it is giving error that "Fill all required fields SAPMF02D 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1" and it is not creating the customer under other sales areas.
        Following are the details of the Outbound Idoc which I have processed.
        Idoc Basic type : DEBMAS06
        Message          : DEBMAS
        I have filled required fields in E1KNA1M and E1KNVVM segments. But filled E1KNVVM segments twice with different sales area data.
      Please help in solving this problem?

is it really just one IDOC?
I have never seen that SAP just does a part of one IDOC.
the structure of DEBMAS ist like this:
E1KNA1M
--E1KNVVM
E1KNVPM
E1KNVDM
E1KNVIM
--E1KNB1M
which means for your example it should be like this
E1KNA1M
--E1KNVVM
E1KNVPM
E1KNVDM
E1KNVIM
--E1KNVVM
E1KNVPM
E1KNVDM
E1KNVIM
--E1KNB1M
and in this case I am very certain that it would never just process and create the part for one sales area.
Maybe your customer already exists from ealier tests with just one sales area.
Display your IDOC in WE02 or WE05 and make sure you have a value in name1 field

How can i extend the customer to other sales area

how can i extend the customer to other sales area

Hello Harish,
Once you have a customer (eg. 100002) in one sales area (eg. 0010/10/10), you open XD01 tcode, enter the same customer number (100002) in customer field and enter sales area (say u want to create in 0020/10/10) in which you want to create the same customer. Now in Reference section, enter the customer number (100002) and sales area in which already the customer exists (0010/10/10). When you press enter, it allows you to modify the sales area data for the customer for new sales area.
then save it.
Hope it is clear...

Problem in getting opening balance for multiple GL Account

Hi,
I am working on a Trail Balance Report in which i am trying to fetch the data for the opening balance for multiple GL Accounts but it is not coming accurate.. Here is the link to the code which i am using currently right now:-
http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfxswwff_13fgpdcbgt
here i am showing the logic for the data of previous year only... i.e. data from begining to 1 day less of the date-low.

Hi,
It is a tranparent table which is getting data from the 2 other tables,the filling of this table is right. The execution of this query is right in the program but the problem comes when it is trying to calculate the opening balance for the respective GL Account present in the query it is not doing it. i.e. if there are 2 gl account ids having 3 rows of data each it is not calculating the of it in a single row.. i hope it is clear now...

Inquiry with reference to an Inquiry for Diff Sales Area

HI All,
I want to create an Inquiry (for Sales Area 2: 0100 AA BB) with the reference of an Inquiry(Sales Area 1: 0100 CC BB).
Inquiry type is same for both inquiries. I'm done with following settings
Copy Control : Inquiry to Inquiry
Material: Extended in Sales Area 2.
Customer: Extended in Sales Area 2.
Both Sales Area's assigned to Inquiry type
Could you please suggest me if anything is missing OR the correct copy control setting for this scenario.
Ramchandra

hi I think you can achive with creating new Copying requirements
use the reference of 002 (Header - diff customer)
In this they are checking
Is the sales org. the same in both reference and target?
Is the dist. channel the same in both reference and target?
Is the division the same in both reference and target?
Hope this will work

Problem in creating customer in new sales area

Hi
I am creating a customer in new sales area but system is not allowing but giving following message Sales area UKA1 U1 U1 is not defined for customers.
In IMG, sales area UKA1 U1 U1 exists.
How to resolve this problem?
Thanks

Dear Uttam,
There are two ways to maintain Customer Master records:
1. By creating master record for each Sales Area
2. BY creating single master record & define common Distribution channels & Divisions.
In second case e.g. you have two distribution channel & Divisions C1 & C2 and AA & BB respectively. You create a master record for C1 & AA & if you have defined the above Sales areas as common then you need create new master record for C2 & BB...
These settings can be done at IMG - Sales & Dist - Master Data - Define Common Dist. Channel & Divisions.
Hope this clears your doubt.. .
Reward if useful...

We can restrict customer for cash sales only. configure following steps.
1) SPRO>sd>sales>sales documents>define and assign reason for blocking : Define blocking reasons.
eg: overall block.
2) SPRO>sd>sales>sales documents>define and assign reason for blocking : Allocate blocking reasons to sales document types : Assign sales document types to your blocking reason except cash sale document type.

DSD route settlement with multiple sales are

Hi folks,
I have looked in this forum for an answer for my problem but haven't found any, so i am creating this new thread.
Well i am trying to settle a shipment in /DSD/DE_ENTRY transaction with multiple sales area in it, example:
Visit 1 - Sales Org(D002) Distribution channel(GN) Division(GA)
Visit 2 - Sales Org(D002) Distribution channel(GN) Division(GB)
Visit 3 - Sales Org(D017) Distribution channel(17) Division(D1)
The problem i get is that when i settle the shipment he mixes up the sales area in the visits, so far, allways in visit 3 where he puts up D002, 17, D1, giving the error of non existent sales area when trying to create the order(he doesn't mix up for all orders, only for some ones in the visit).
Another strange fact is that i made 3 shipments with same data, and in all 3, he mixed up for different documents, in 1 he created 2 documents fine, in other one only 1, making me believe that he "randomly" atributes the sales area.
What i need is to "manipulate" or have a solution for standard doesn't mix up the sales area, and atribute the correct sales area to the orders to create based on the sales are in the visit.
Best Regards.

Thanks for the link, it's more or less the functionality that I'm looking for but the issue with BW is that I need to do the Settlement at the moment that routes are arriving "on line" and with BW I need wait the load to BW system. A lot of routes are arriving frequently.
¿Do you know a R3 functionality for this? or ¿do you know a "Shipments settlement" who has all Shipments of the route? in order to use same transaction that is by transport.
Thank's a lot

Billing document for multiple sales orders

Hi All,
I am in to ECC 6.0. How can i get single billing document for multiple sales orders?
Can anyone tell me those configuration settings?
Thanks

Dear Jaganath,
For Single Invoice, for multiple Sales Order, following details must be same:
1. Sales Document Type for all Sales Order must be same
2. Payer
3. Incoterms
4.Payment Term
5. Account Assignment Grp - Customer
6. Billing Date
7. Exchange Rate
8. Foreign Trade Data
Now, in Copy-Control Settings between Sales Order and Billing (T. Code: VTFA - Order to bill copying control), Select your combination for Sales Order-->Invoice;
and Double Click: Item (from Left-Hand side, Dialog Structure) and Double Click on to your Item Category.
Here, in Filed: VBRK/VBRP, maintain Routine: 003 - Single Invoice.
Important: Also, if Sales Orders have different Divisions,
T. Code: VOV8 - Sales Document Type Maintenance
untick the Box: Item Division.
T. Code: VOR2 - Common Division
Assign those Divisions to Common Divisions.
Best Regards,
Amit

Setting up pricing for new sales area

Hi SD Gurus,
Well I am new to SD configuration and question that I am going to ask might be just a seconds task but any help to get me kick started would be highly appreciated.
Well the client I am working for has 4 distribution channels configured and now my task is to add a new distribution channel to the existing enterprise structure and I have successfully managed to do that and now I can create and extend customer master for this new distribution channel.
The next task on hand is that to configure pricing for sales areas including this distribution channel. Pricing proceedure to be used in this sales areas is already defined just can't get a clue as to where to do the settings so that i can create sales documents against such sales areas as well
right now it just gives me an error something like "No pricing procedure for this sales area"
Thanks

Hi UsmanZ,
You create PP in spro > Sales and Distribution > Basic Functions > Pricing > Pricing Control > Define and Assign Pricing Procedures > Maintain Pricing Procedures
You can't attach PP to specific plant. Pricing Procedure is determined thru trx OVKK. The defining parameters for pricing procedure determination are:
1. SalesOrg
2. Distribution Channel
3. Division
4. Document Procedure (defined in Sales doc\Billing doc maintenance)
5. Pricing procedure assigned to customer (defined in customer master)
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

SHIP TO PARTY NOT DEFINED FOR CERTAIN SALES AREA

Hi ...
I am creating a specific type of sales order in va01 by reffering a billing document . But soon after entering billing document no it is showing " SHIP TO PARTY NOT DEFINED FOR CERTAIN SALES AREA..." The sales area --- which it's showing in error it is quite different ....it's not that one what we used for it in that ref billing document .
Note : We are maintaining ship to party , sold to party ..... in CRM only
Their also I checked it is assigned properly .Relatioship with sold to party is also OK .
But in R/3 I have checked that ship party is created in VD01 Where as sold to party is created in XD01 .
PLS ADVC

Dear Sundar,
Please check in these areas
1.Check the sales area which you are trying to create sales order and copying invoice sales area is same or not.
2.Why you haven't created ship to party in XD01 transaction.
You go to XD01 transaction exetend the customer master then try.
3.Check the customer master(Ship to party) is available under which sales area.
I hope it will help you,

Creating BP in multiple sales areas

Hi Friends,
In SD we can extend a customer master to multiple sales areas. But in CRM once I create a BP with sold to party role, I am able enter only one sales area. And if I change it, the previous sales area is gone.
How to do this.
regards

Hi Rahul,
Rather than using this manuall teqnque.. i would prefer this way.
Let BP be created as prospect.. as ur call center operations would always be get new business from prospects..
But yes once prospect is ready to sign the contract.. in the save of contract, maintain the role Sold-toParty of the prospect.. and hence u ensure that u don't have to manually keep track of if customer is prospect or not... but if u try to create contract,, if customer is prospect it would be also now maintained as soldto party..

Single Invoice for two sales areas

Hello SAP Gurus,
I have a scenario that Iu2019ll appreciate if a solution could be proffered
Contractually, a customer requires materials from a company (company code), and these materials will be sold from 2 or more sales areas within the company code. However, a single invoice, which will list the items and their individual prices, is what is required to be given the customer. What solution can I use to resolve this?
Thanks

Hi luqmon
Say you have material - MAT1 ; Customer - 1000 ; 1st sales area is - 1000/10/10 ; 2nd sales area - 2000/20/20
So make sure that the material MAT1 is available in both sales areas
Even customer (KUNNR) is also available in both sales areas . If you have created in 1st sales area then extended it to 2nd sales area.
Maintain same pricing procedure for both sales areas in OVKK
Maintain a access sequence with the key combination Sales orgn / material . and assign the access sequnece to the Pricing (PR00) condition type
Now Maintain the condition record for the material MAT1 in VK11 , with the key combination of sales orgn / material
Now when you create the sales order and do delivery , PGI and when you do billing then you can see the price of the material maintained in that VK11 based on sales orgn
But yours can be solved either with a LIS report also

Srinath
