Partner role update to COPA

Hello,
I had implemented Note 36557 - Info SD/CO-PA: Transferring partner roles to CO-PA with related notes.
The status now is that I have all partners that I need transferred to COPA from sales document, but I meet another problem.
The problem is that, when I change any of the new partner roles in sales document (Partners TAB), they do not change in Profit. Segmen derivation (account assignment TAB).
That anyone meet that problem and can support me with solution?
Thanks in advance,
Rafal

Hi Rafal,
Please check note 504173. I hope this note meets your requirement. Please check try this note in your test system before transporting to production. Also please regenerate the operating concern after implementing the note.
Regards,
Abhisek

Problem in Creating a Business Partner Role

Hi Frns,
I am trying to create a BP Role from CAC->SAP Business Partner->Business Partner->Business partner Roles->Define BP Roles.
I copied BUP003 and given my BP Role name as ZEmp.
When i try to save it, it is giving an error message saying
"NO STANDARD ASSIGNMENT DEFINED FOR BP ROLE CATEGORY BBP003".
I have checked in BBP003 Category in the same.
What could be the problem?
Thanks in Advance
Rohan

Hi Roshan,
You have Created a BP Role,
You must also have assgned the Same to a BP Role Category Check the Settings for BP Role Category Assignment and when Appropriate you shall Assign Std Assignment of BP Role Category to your BP Role by Selecting the Check Box
Referal Notes:
BP Role Category
Attribute of a BP role.
Use
The role category makes it possible for SAP and customer programs to program on the BP role.
Dependencies
The role category depends on a differentiation type.
Any number of BP roles can be assigned to a role category, with one role always acting as the standard role per role category.
It is possible to control the update of a role by assigning a role category to a role.
Hope it Anwers your Queries..
Thanks and Regards,

When to use "my role" and "partner role" in BPEL?

I'm a bit confused when to set/use partner role and my role.
Can anyone shed a little light,
regards, Henrik

Saurabh,
> I humbly disagree with your explanation of inputs
No need to be humble, you can boldy disagree. :)
You're right that I did technically use the wrong term in that sentence of my explanation. I updated the post and corrected it. However the gist of what I was saying is still true.
There are two invocation types. People use different terms but here I'll call them request-response and one-way. A request-response invocation type is used for what we typically think of as a "synchronous" process. That is, the service consumer is blocked until the service responds. It's like methodA() in Java calling methodB(). methodA() is blocked until methodB() completes. (In fact, this is exactly what it's like since all invocations on our BPEL engine ultimately go through our Java API.)
In the case of one-way, the service consumer is not blocked. This is often referred to as fire-and-forget. It simply sends its request, then it is free to continue or do whatever it wants. Moreover, nothing is returned to the client (you fired-and-forgot, remember). Typical "asynchronous" BPEL processes uses this invocation type.
So we have those two invocation types. Yet the problem before us how to have an asynchronous process return a result. You can't use request-response because the service consumer is blocked until the process finishes. You can't just use a one-way because nothing is returned to the caller. What to do?
The way the BPEL standard solved the problem is to use two one-way invocation types. The first one is to invoke the process. The second one is a one-way from the BPEL process to the service consumer to return the result. There are some glaring implications of this:
1. When the BPEL process returns it's result, things have now switched: The BPEL process becomes the service consumer, and the (original) service consumer becomes the service.
2. The service consumer has to be able to listen for one-way invocation type requests.
3. The BPEL process has to know how and where to call the service consumer back. This information is passed in the original request. As well as containing the data payload, it contains a callback address and unique identifier. This, in essence, is what the WS-Addressing standard is about.
Now the definition of a one-way invocation type in a WSDL is:
    <portType name="aaa">
        <operation name="bbb">
            <input message="tns:ccc"/>
        </operation>
    </portType>Compare that to a request-response invocation type:
    <portType name="aaa">
        <operation name="bbb">
            <input message="tns:ccc"/>
            <output message="tns:ddd"/>
        </operation>
    </portType>Let's look again out our example WSDL:
    <portType name="SelectService">
        <operation name="processRequestQuote">
            <input message="tns:RequestQuote_processRequestQuote"/>
        </operation>
    </portType>
    <portType name="SelectServiceCallback">
        <operation name="processRequestQuoteResponse">
            <input message="tns:RequestQuote_processRequestQuoteResponse"/>
        </operation>
    </portType>Here comes the good bit... Both portTypes have an <input> operation. But that's because they are both one-way invocation types, and there is no choice but use the <input> element -- that's the standard. You can't imply put <output> because there's no such thing in the standard. However we know that one of those is to actually return the result. That is, it's the output, even though it's labelled <input>.
Hopefully that's given you enough information now. Re-read my first post, above, and it should make more sense.
Incidentally, this is why you rarely see try asynchronous web services, because the caller has to also be a listener. And if you want to call a service, who wants to also have to write code to listen, to handle responses coming out of order, etc. This is one of the advantages of using an orchestration engine like Oracle BPEL Process Manager. The framework takes care of the hard work, and you can simply call an aysnchronous service and not have to worry about how to get the response back -- the engine does it for you.

Business Partner Role Specific Field View in WebClient

Hello to everyone,
I have a question that really needs a answer. We are upgrading from SAP CRM v4 to SAP CRM v7.0 and as such we have a number of custom Business Partner Roles within the Person BP Type. Against these custom roles we have developed custom field and tabs in order to separate the content within the BP Role further.
After rolling off an implementation of SAP CRM v6.0 [2007], the following seems apparent:
- Assignment of Roles is done via an assignment block in the Customer Maintenance view.
- You can create Business Partners in different roles initially.
- You cannot maintain Business Partner details in specific roles
However, you cannot display the role specific fields as you can in the WinClient. As an example, a Citizen Role BP will have different fields to that of a Teacher, but these roles could be assigned to one Business Partner.
There does not seem to be any guidance as to how this is managed in the WebClient and as it seems a fundamental part fo the SAP CRM offering, you would have thought that this questions has been asked, but I have found no answers.
I really hope anyone can help and appreciate any time and effort put into solving my question.
Many Thanks,
MatFlat.

Hi MatFlat,
Yes, your observation is right - in the Web UI, fiel grouping is not implemented for roles. This is because the role concept is quite different between SAP Gui and Web UI.
In SAP gui, (CRM 4.0) roles had a functional meaning as well as a UI control. However, the concept was changed with Web UI. Now, roles have only a functional meaning, and no effect on the UI at all.
If you want to implement role based field grouping in Web UI, you need to define your own methods in the implementation class.
E.g : you can write code to influence the field properties based on the roles. I guess you can redefine the DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT methods of the impl class.
In order to get info about which roles the BP is maintained , you can use FM BUPA_ROLES_GET_2.
Hope this helps you.
Cheers,
Rishu.

Sales order qty not updated in copa

Hi Gurus,
My client has activated Costing based COPA.
We have activated Incoming sales orders with option
Transfer with date of deliery/scheduled billing date.
When We are posting sales order we are able to see a copa document with record type A.
In that document we want to see the Sales order quantity or delivery quantity, delivery date fileds.Please let me know what all the value fields We need to assign.
Do I need to write any derivation rule for incoming sales arders also.
we are able to capture the total price, material etc from the sales order in COPA document.We need only sales order qty or Delivery qty or delivery date to be updated in COPA document.
Please suggest me
Regards
Chaitanya

Hi Chait,
Pl check whether your client has assigned SD Qty Fields to COPA Quantity fields in KE4M. Sd quantity fields are FKIMG- Billed Quantity, KWMENG-Order Quantity and the same shall be assigned to ABSMG-Sales Quantity. If not, please maintain the same. Otherwise, we need to look for some other work around solution.
Trust this resolve your problem!
Cheers!

E-Recruiting 6.0: Business Partner Role For Branches

Hi Experts,
In the IMG, SAP E-Recruiting > Basic Settings > Enterprise Structure > Define Business Partner Role for Branches
Can anyone help in the following:
1) What is the purpose of Business Partner Role and how does it relate the Branches? Or how can i make use of it?
2) If i am going to maintain the Company & Branches via the Administrator function instead of IMG, do I still need to configure this step: Define Business Partner Role for Branches
Thanks. Will reward points for any helpful tips.
William

Hello William,
the Business Partner is an application / module which belongs to the base components of the SAP. It is used and partly extended by various other applications / modules. Next to E-Recruiting it is used for example by CRM and the financial service solution (FS-CS, FS-PM, FS-RI). All of these modules can put their data for a person or an organization into the same tables. Depending on the installation / system environment or even within one single module the requirements for available fields and business checks as on authorization differ between kinds of business partners (e.g. in FS-CS the commission solution for the financial service sector knows external agents and internal employees which have to be treated differently). The business partner is the element to assign the logical / business role in which a person is handled by the system.
For E-Recruiting you have 2 kinds of business partners, too. On the one and there are people being candidates and on the other hand there are branches of your company which hire people. The configuration allows you to seperate them if you need to identify anywhen which business partner is a branch and which is a candidate. So far I never tried if this is really working as there is no real use for this I never set it up. The attributes and the business checks are the same anyways.
Hope that helps a bit to understand the context
Best Regards
Roman Weise
PS: please remember that you have to maintain the branches via administrator bsp application. Using the IMG entry won't work.

Error message 06030 when copying PO items and partner roles

Hello gurus,
when I try to copy a PO item into a new PO using a different vendor, I get an error message:
Reference vendor 20003681 differs from vendor 20004972
Message no. 06030
So far so good. But when I put that new PO on "Hold" and reopen and save it later, the error message is gone.
This is a SAP error, isn't it? Obviously SAP cannot determine that the items have been copied after reopening the PO.
Second question:
In the new PO, there is a partner role VN as it should be, but the partner is still the vendor of the original PO I copied from. So now I have got two different vendors in one PO!
And even worse: I have not yet found a way to change the partner in the VN role because it is mandatory and cannot be changed after saving the PO.
Any ideas on either problem?
Thanks
Alicia

Hi,
Check following settings
Spro>materials mgmt>purchasing>partner determination>partner settings in purchasing documents>define partner schemas
select the schema you are using>double click on >partner funstions in procedure>check for role VN
No change column is tick ...thats why you are not able to change it and its grey ....if dont select this you will be able to change it
Thanks

CCS Details are not getting updated to COPA in Sales Order Settlement(VA88)

Dear Experts,
Our scenario is MTO with valuated material.
1. Production order is tagged to Sales Order.
2. Production order is settled to Material and variance is getting posted to COPA.
3. At the time of Delivery, COGS Debit (Cost Object- Sales Order), Credit - Inventory.
4. At the time of Billing, Accounting Document is getting generated, COPA document is not getting generated.
5. We are not executing WIP. (as per Business process)
6. Settlement is done thru transaction code VA88. COPA Document is getting generated.
I am facing the following issues in the above MTO process.
1. At time of sales order settlement thru VA88, In COPA, only COGS is getting as updated with one value field i.e. Material Cost. Cost Component data (Material Depreciation, Labor etc..) is not getting updated to COPA.
2. When I settle the Sales Order thru VA88, Billing Quantity is not getting updated to COPA though Quantity field mapping is done properly.
Please help me how to resolve the above issues.
Note: Same Cost Component Structure, we are using for Make to Stock scenario. Cost Component Data is getting updated Properly to COPA (at the time of Billing)
Regards,
vgl

Hi
1. CCS (Cost Comp Split) wont be updated to COPA if you settle via sale order.. In sale order, COGS cost element is posted.. the same will get settled to COPA as one single value...
In MTS, the CCS gets updated to COPA upon billing because of the "valuation" strategy customization... Billing posts to COPA in that case, COPA gets Sales Qty and it is valuated with CCS to give you the break up.. But, in your case, Billing is not posting to COPA, but to sales order.. hence, there is no qty flow into COPA upon billing.. thats why you dont get CCS for MTO
2. The sales qty should be updated to COPA upon VA88.. For this, make the following settings in your PA transfer structure which is used during VA88
1. Go to KEI1, Select your PA transfer structure...
2. Add an assignment line in it... Check on "Qty Billed/Delivered" in the assignment line
3. In the Tab "Value Field" below "source", assign Qty Field
Now when you settle, it should update qty as well

Partner roles in Vendor master record

Hi all
can some one explain me how to enter the partner roles in vendor master record
In sap help i didnt understood this point
"When working with partner roles, you must maintain the following settings:
Separate vendor master records must exist for all the partners of a vendor that are to be entered in that vendors master record."
what does it mean
suppose i am creating vendor master record 1234
Vendor master record:1234
LF 1234       /*vendor
BA1234       /*ordering address
i have to click 1234 in BA and select 'parner' at the top to enter the ordering adress right ...
what is the 'Separate vendor master records must exist for all the partners' mean
it has to be like this?
Vendor master record:1234
LF 1234       /*vendor
BA1235       /*ordering address
1235 vendor master record is created earlier and ordering address maintained ??
please help me in this record, any user manual or some screen shots to explain how to maintain partner roles in vendor master record
regards
Bhushan.N

Hi Sasi ,
What Ramkrishna explained is correct. I will try to illustrate it with the example.
Suppose you are creating a vendor 1234 which is Head office of the supplier where you need to place the order. But goods will be supplied from Pune plant so you should enter 1235 againts partner function GS , here 1235 is seperate vendor master record with Pune plant details & it must exist in the system so that you can use it as a partner function Hope this has cleared your doubts.
Similarly you vcan create other partner functions like payee,ordering party etc.
Regards,
Anand

Partner Role not coming when creating the Vendor Master

Hi all
There is a standrd role AZ.
There is a standrd Partner Determination procedure L1.
The role AZ is assigned to the Partner Determination procedure L1.
When creating the vendor master in MK01 the role is not coming in the list of partner function.
For Document types there is a standard shema 0002.
The role AZ has also been assigned to doc type.
What can be the reason.
Is the assignment against doc type at all required.
Please suggest.

The procedure for setting partner functions:
Step 1
Vendor Account Group
IMG->LOGISTICS GENERAL->BUSINESS PARTNER->VENDOR->CONTROL ->DEFINE
ACCOUNT GROUPS AND FIELD SELECTION
Step 2
Defining Partner Schemas
IMG->MATERIALS MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER -> DETERMINATION -
>PARNER SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD
->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMAS
Step 3
Assign Partner Schema
IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION->PARTNER
SETTINGS IN VENDOR MASTER RECORD->DEFINE PARTNER SCHEMA
« THEN ASSIGN PARTNER SCHEMA
Step 4
Define Permissible Partner Role Per Account Group
IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER DETERMINATION -
>PARTNER ROLES ->DEFINE PERMISSION PARTNER ROLES
If you want a partner schema for your own document type then define your partner schema and assign to document type using the below mentioned path.
IMG->MATERIAL MANAGEMENT->PURCHASING->PARTNER ->DETERMINATION -
>PARTNER SETTINGS IN PURCHASING DOCUMENTS ->DEFINE PERMISSION
PARTNER SCHEMAS
And then
ASSIGN PARTNER SCHEMAS TO DOCUMENT TYPE
Once you have this configuration then you change your vendor in easy access menu (XK02-select partner function) define the partner roles.

BAPI_PO_CREATE1 is not defaulting all the partner role in the PO

Hi All,
I am facing a problem while Purchase Uploads using BAPI_PO_CREATE1 in the LSMW via Idoc .
The BAPI is not behaving same as Txn ME21n .
In the Txn ME21n when we enter the Vendor the partner tab is automatically filled with all the Partner roles .
While when we use BAPI it is only filing the Partner role with a single partner role VN.
We are sending the sturcture partner role as blank because we wanted it to be defaulted as it is in Txn ME21N.
During the program analysis we found the following :
BAPI is calling the Function Module MM_PARTNER_SELECT which try to fill the Partner function
using WYT3 table . The table Wyt3 has the plant field as empty for that particular Vendor.
The BAPI is using the plant to determine the partner roles .
While in Txn ME21n the plant field is not used for determining the partner role .
In txn Me21n once we change the vendor entered initially & then again re enter the initial vendor number
then it behaves like BAPI & only display the single partner role .
Kindly advice .
Regards,
Anurag Goel

Hi All ,
FYI
We found the solution for defaulting partner role using BAPI_PO_CREATE1,It is a customization issue .
We have check the Higher level indicator ( Search at higher level ) in the customization Txn OLME Under Partner Determination -
> Partner setting in Purchasing document -
>Define partner schemas
If this indicator is not set, the system only transfer partner roles that are maintained at plant level .
Best regards,
Anurag Goel .

Confusing definition of My and Partner Role in PartnerLinks

Assume I create two BPEL processes: One producer and one consumer
Each of them needs a JMS adapter as partner services.
When I click in the producer BPEL process on the JMS adapter definition
then I have to specify:
Partner Link Type=Produce_Message_plt
Partner Role=Produce_Message_role
My role=not specified
When I click in the consumer BPEL process on the JMS adapter definition
then I have to specify:
Partner Link Type=Consume_Message_plt
Partner Role=not specified
My role=Consume_Message_role
The relationship between "My role" and "Partner role" is somehow asymetric and confusing.
at a first glance I would have said before: The view is always from the BPEL process side.
But why do I have to specify NO "My role" in the producer ?
When I try to specify "My role" as "Produce_Message_role" and leave
"Partner role" as not specified then I get errors.
Can somehow explain me what the logic behind should be ?
Peter

You need to look at it from a message type perspective. Is the message you are calling async, or sync
If the process is sync you need to specify both, this is calling a sync partner link.
PartnerRole=Invoke
MyRole=Receive
Async can be tricky. When you call a async Partner Link, e.g. JMS Adpater you typically only one operation exists.
PartnerRole=Invoke
You are telling the partner to use the Invoke operation.
Async can be fire and forget or you may want to wait for a response so you have to implement a Receive activity. In this case you are the consumer and there is no Partner Role operation
MyRole=Receive
So to keep it simple
Sync Invoke activity = Both
Async Invoke activity = PartnerRole
Async Receive activity = MyRole

Hi Dilip,
Check first have you Define Permissible Partner Roles per Account Group..
Check the path:
SPRO-Materials Management-Purchasing-Partner Determination-Define Permissible Partner Roles per Account Group
Here check whether OA is assigned with ZLOV or not...If no then click on new entries and enter partner function as OA and Vendor account group ZLOV...Save nd come out...
Now proceed...Hope it helps..
