PERNR and Business Partner (BP) in ECC 6.0

Hi: Our company is currently creating PERNR(s) in ECC 6.0. We are trying to determine if we should turn on Business Partner (BP) functionality in ECC also. I am having a difficult time finding information and/or documentation explaining what Business Partner functionality delivers that PERNRs do not deliver. Can anybody provide me with documentation on what BP delivers that PERNR does not in ECC? Any documenation and/or BKMs would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Did you do all of the config including Activate Sync Options.
You need to make sure you have the correct route i.e. BP to Customer or Customer to BP.
You also need to make sure you have the correct account group for the customer master linked to the correct BP.

BP change documents ( linking problem between Object id and Business Partner)

Hi,
We need to create a report for documents changed for a Business partner.
This will be done in sap bw.
on source side I have created the datasource with function module changedocument_read and I am getting most of the information
which I want. Only missing part is Business Partner number.
Can somebody suggest , how I would be able to link Object Id to business partner.
I need to pull everything that is changed at BP level and the Object class selection around 30 in number.
So I am looking for any standard function module which can provide me the link between Object id and Business partner.
If I establish the rules to determine the Business partner from Object id , its getting bit difficult.
Can somebody please help/suggest.
I have gone through many documents and scn posts but unable to find anything on this.
Thanks !

Hi, looking at the change history header table CDHDR it seems that object ID simple equals the internal format of the business partner number.

Business Partner Role and Business Partner Grouping

Hello Everybody!
Business Partner Role and Business Partner Grouping.
Which correlation ist between this attributes existing.
In which table are this infos stored, In order create I can use
e.g. BUPA_CREATE_FROM_DATA
but how is the way inversely. Suppose I want to abtain the information
about a existing business partner which group he has etc.
Regards
sas

Dear Sas,
Business Partner Grouping is used to determine the number ranges to be used by the business partner at the time of creation.
Business Partner Role determines the subset of all the data available to be shown and edited.
I will give you a very simple (but imaginary) example for understanding the role concept: the business partner in a role of employee might allow you to enter a department id. So this field should be available to you for input when you edit the business partner in the role of employee. But suppose the same business partner is also a person who is your customer. And your customer will require a default payment term. So this field should be available for input when you edit the business partner in the role of a customer. Also, some applications use these roles to determine if the business partner is suitable for particular transaction. In the above example, Payroll application will only allow those Business Partner to be used if they are maintained as an employee. Similarly the sales application can mandate that you can only sell a product to a business partner if he is maintain in a 'customer' role.
Please understand the example above is not real but given for the understanding of the concept of role.
You can use the function module 'BUPA_CENTRAL_GET_DETAIL' to find the business partner group. And you can use the function 'BUPA_ROLES_GET' to find the role assigned to a Business Partner.

Account group and Business partner link

Hi all,
Is there any relation maintained for Account group (From R/3) and Business Partner Role in GTS system?

Hi Balu,
In GTS, system does not consider the Account group while creating a BP role for a BP whereas it only considers the classification of Vendors or Customers. If a Customer master is created in R/3 irrespective of Account Group, BP role SLLCPC will be assigned whereas if a Vendor is created in R/3, then BP role SLLCPS will be assigned.
Hope this answers the query.

E-Recruitment,Syncronization for Employee and Business Partner not working?

hi there,
i itend to create a business partner for employee in SAP E RECRUITMENT but when i run the report HRALXSYNC for an employee, the result i am getting is total blank. I suppose there should be some errors if it is not working properly, but the the screen after running the report is total blank.
are any prior settings must me meet before the business partners can be created using HRALXSYNC?
thanks you

HI Ravi
Requirements to use the report are the activation of the integration for buisness partner. You could get details from sap note 550055.
You have to switch on the following keys in table T77S0 with SM30:
Group    Sem. ID
HRALX   HRAC           to 'X' for global HR-Integration
HRALX   OBPON        to "ON" for activate the integration between organization object and business partner
HRALX   PBPON         "ON" for activation the integration between central perosn and business partner
Hope this helps.

Replication of Business Partner Data from ECC to legacy

Hi,
My requirement is to replicate any changes made to Business Partner,should immediately get reflected in the legacy.
Which is the best method to follow.I am planning to use ABAP proxies instead of IDOCS.
As the replication needs to be immediate,Can I use ABAP Proxy.?
And for tigerring this proxy I need to enhance the code for Business Partner(BP) to call the proxy.
Is my approach correct or do I need to follow any other approach.
Regards,
Vinod Kumar.

Hi,
The approach should be based on the kind of data you want to upload in SAP. if you want to upload some standard process documents like Sales order/ purchase order then it will be good to use IDOC. As we have Standard IDOCs available in SAP to upload such document in ECC. In case you want to track the change in data from BP which is not part of any standard process then in that case you can go for ABAP proxy.
If you are using ABAP proxy you dont need to call it from BP. From BP the changes will be sent to PI (in the form of File/database Query/JMS Queues ..etc ). Then PI will call inbound proxy from ECC and post the data.
Please let me know if you have any other Qs.
Shweta.

Business Partner replication from ECC to CRM based on Company code

Hi:
I got this requirement where we need to transfer customers from ECC --> CRM. Customers specific to a company code.
Trying to maintain Filters for CUSTOMER_main--> KNB1- BUKRS to filter customers by a certain company code. I get this error " Table not maintained in smoftables."
Checked table " SMOFFILFLD" to see there are no entries for KNB1.
While I could check with my superiors on restricting transfer of customers based on Sales area data, as KNVV and KNVP data is maintained.
I would like to know if I can proceed with adding new table KNB1 to this table. If this is not recommended kindly suggest one.

TRM: doubts in interest rate instrument and Business partner

Dear all,
While implementing Treasury Risk Management, in order to fulfill my clientsu2019 needs I have three questions regarding, 1. Interest rate instruments, 2.Leasings and 3.Business partners.
1.When creating a contract of an interest rate instrument , associated to a floating interest rate (e.g. EURIBOR 3M), how can I calculate the tax stamp which represents 4% of my interest rate amount, and occurs every time I have to pay interests?
I could define it in the u201Cother flowsu201D label but since the contract is associated to a variable, I never know how much my 4% of tax stamp calculated over the interest amount will represent.
2.When creating leasing contracts, how can I calculate the VAT associated to the periodic payments?
3.Is there any way to make postings to a business partner directly as a Vendor or a costumer?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Daniel

Hi,
Please consider following:
1. Generally TDS flows are generated automatically by system based on a revenue/expense flow. By configuring Derived FLows in system you can achieve this. Then alongwith every interest payment flow a TDS flow also will be generated based on the rate defined in system with seperate flow type, you can define account posting in spro.
The path for config- TRM-Trans Mgr- Money Market-Transaction Mgt- Flow Types- Derived FLows
2. Again since VAT is a derived flow for an actual cash flow, so you can achive this through derived flows config.
3. You can make posting to Business Partner account by performing following:
a. In master data, assign role of Customer to the Business Partner
b. Make payment settings in transaction to Customer and select payee/counterparty. While posting with TBB1, entries will be against Customer A/c and further clearing will be reqd at customer level against respective payment bank.
c. To achieve this output, you may require to define account determination accordingly for customers.
I suggest to post seperate thread for each issue rather than posting with single thread for better response.

Material vs. Products and Business Partner vs. Customer and Vendor

Hi,
Just wondering if there's any SAP recommendation for using 'Products' repository vs. Material repository. Similarly, is there any SAP recommendation for using 'Business Partner' repository vs. Customer and Vendor repositories.
Can anyone would like to shed some light on what is recommended with pros and cons? Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Mins,
you can group the repositories in the following way:
Group 1
- Material
- Vendor
- Customer
Group 2
- Product
- Business Partner
Repositories of Group 1 are related to the corresponding R/3 (ERP) data models. The repositories cover a large part of the R/3 fields and can be used to integrate your R/3 systems with MDM as they contain import and syndication maps for R/3.
Repositories of Group 2 are related to the common CRM and SRM data model. Those repositories have been developed with the goal to integrate CRM, SRM and R/3 with MDM. Unfortunately the structure of the Group 1 repositories was not capable to fullfill this. Group 2 repositories contain import and syndication maps to all remote systems (CRM, SRM, R/3). But those repositories are not as large as the Group 1 as the first task of the Group 2 repositories was the data consolidation scenario.
There is no general recommendation which repository to use. It depends on the project setup on customer side:
- If you want to use MDM for R/3 only, it makes sense to use Group 1
- If you want to use MDM for R/3 only, but you want to consolidate your customers and vendors in one single repository, you should use the Business Partner Repository because this one can hold both object types
- If you want to use MDM for CRM and SRM, you should use Group 2
So a general recommendation could be to check the Master Data setup and landscape within your project and then to choose the corresponding repository.
Kind regards
Michael
