Previous Account Number customer master data

FI Gurus,
I want to be able to use field KNB1-ALTKN under company code data in master data. I want to use this field to store the old legacy customer number, but then I want ot be able to search when Ina doing customer search in FBL5N. Is there a way to do that?
Thank You for your help.

Hi Frank,
Try this way.
Go to SE36-> DDF->Extras-> selection views.
origin of view -> SAP-> Change
you can see Tables/Nodes on right hand side -> click page down.
place cursor on KNB1 and click choose.
In Table fields/Node fields
click page down until you see ALTKN field.
assign functional group 04 to the field and save.
Note: Under origin of view ->SAP, this is provided by SAP. Make sure before you do change.
Best Regards,
Mohan.

Modify Reconciliation Account of Customer Master Data

Hi,
I need to change Reconciliation Account into master data for some customer
I've already changed the field status group of customer by customizing, setting into area 'Company code data' the Reconciliation Account as optional entry.
But that field into master data of customer remain not editable.
What am I missing?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards.
Eric

Hi,
If you do not have data for the customer account, you can change directly.
But, if you already have data posted, this is the procedure of changing recon account, if you have data.
All Document Items that were created in the old account will be posted in the same old account when you have a payment posting, compensations, etc.
All document created after the change will be posted in the new account as well as the payment postings, compensations and others.
The system will separate the postings in accordance with the moment at the documents were created.
You should run balance sheet adjustment program after any reconciliation account change.
The system performs any adjustments required due to the change of reconciliation accounts or G/L accounts. The items from the old reconciliation accounts are allocated to the new accounts.
Since you cannot post to the reconciliation accounts directly, the postings are made to temporary adjustment accounts.
These adjustment accounts should be displayed along with the relevant reconciliation account in the balance sheet. The postings are then reversed after the balance sheet has been created.
The program for sorting the payables and receivables makes the necessary adjustments automatically. This means that you have to define the adjustment account numbers and the posting keys for these postings in the system.
If you purchase and install the FI-LC Consolidation application and have bought up a previous customer or vendor (thus also taking on his/her payables and receivables), please refer to the note in the report documentation on changed reconciliation accounts. To define the account numbers, select the activity Define adjustment accounts for changed reconciliation accounts in the Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable Implementation Guide.
You should only run this program if your new reconciliation account is classified differently from the original in your FS. e.g.. AR to Intercompany accounts. It will just reclassify the existing balance. The line items will not be transferred. If not then no need to run the program at all.
You can do a test in the development client before you do the change in the production.
Good Luck,
Raghu

Customer Master data.. Bank Account No.

Hi
In customer master data ( XD01) > General Data > Payment Transaction > Bank Details
we maintain. Bank key , Bank Account and other details.
my concern is , by maintaining customer bank account number in customer master data, what are the integrated effects to FI > Bank Accounting > House Bank ? ( On Invoice Creation, Payment Receipt , Credit note, Debit note all FI Transaction ).
Actually we want to use it just for information & reporting purpose. NOT FOR ANY AUTOMATIC RECEIPT \ Integration to FI > BANK Accounting \ House Bank.
Thanks

Hi.
'customer master data, what are the integrated effects to FI > Bank Accounting > House Bank ?' House bank not linked with Customer master data(only if customer affiliated company).
Bank details in customer could be used eg for invoicing(printing form)

Could anyone tell how change this?
Thanks,
Gandalf

Hi,
In SPRO, change the field status for the customer account group to optional. Then you can change the reconciliation account of the customer.
The Path -
SPRO>>Financial Accounting (New)>>Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable>>Customer Accounts>>Master Data>> Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data>>Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Customers). Here select the account group for the customer and double click on the line. In this screen, double click on Company code data. Then change the field status in Account management for Reconciliation account.
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,
Anit

Change account groups in vendor/ customer master data

Hi,
Do you think is possible to change account groups in vendor/ customer master data?
Thanks

Hi,
Good evening and greetings,
Changing the account groups will redetermine the Reconciliation account, which will be creating a chaos during Audit Reconciliation. But if there is a requirement, please go through the following link

Validate Street and House Number in the Customer Master Data (xd01/xd02)

All.
I need to validate if the fields street and house number are in blank in the Customer Master Data transaction (xd01/xd02). I found an user-exit (EXIT_SAPMF02D_001), which I can validate the customer data (KNA1, KNB1, etc) before to save. The problem is in the KNA1 structure, there aren't the fields street (STREET) and house number (NOUSE_NUM1), there is only the field STRAS, which street and house number values are concatenated.I solved this problem using field-symbol to catch these values in the screen, but I know it isn't a good solution. Is there another solution to solve this ? I had problem using this user-exit. It shows a message error type 'E' when either field street or field house number are in blank, after show this message if the user click in the tabs navigator button before press enter button, the transaction shows the error message "System error on reading table DYNTAB, screen no. 0370". Does Somebody know this problem?
Best regards,
Alexandre
ps: I'm coding in the ECC 6.

Amit.
Thanks for your suggestion, but I need to validate these values typed by the user. When I create a customer, I can't get these values in the ADRC table.
Regards, Alexandre

Need to see previous account number field in CRM

Hi Specialist's,
As part of our implementation project
There is a field in SAP r/3 ( Customer Master Data Tcode:Xd03) on Company Code Tab called Previous Account Number field ALTKN, table KNB1( Company Code Data ).
We need this information to go to CRM system.
I checked the field in table BUT000 in CRM but could not find any field containing this information.
Can someone let us know how can we see this information in CRM.
Also it would be helpful if you can tell under which screen,table and field can i get this information in CRM system.
Useful answers will definitely be rewarded with points .
Thanks,
Abhinav.

Dear RVI,
when You run the report then You can add by ALV the following two field that are hidden:
G/L Account     22     10
G/L Account     23     10
The first refers:
General Ledger Account HKONT
    This field contains the number of the G/L account to which the
    transaction figures are updated.
The second refers:
G/L Account Number SAKNR
     The G/L account number identifies the G/L account in a chart of
     accounts.
I hope this helps.

XD01 assertion failed error while updating customer master data

Hi Guys,
This is an error when I use transaction XD01 to create customers accounts, If you have any ideas do let me and we'll try it....
The error does not let an BDC or LSMW progress as well. There are also no recent sap notes on the same.
The error is as follow
ASSERTION_FAILED
Short text
The ASSERT condition was violated.
What happened?
In the running application program, the ASSERT statement recognized a
situation that should not have occurred.
The runtime error was triggered for one of these reasons:
- For the checkpoint group specified with the ASSERT statement, the
activation mode is set to "abort".
- Via a system variant, the activation mode is globally set to "abort"
for checkpoint groups in this system.
- The activation mode is set to "abort" on program level.
- The ASSERT statement is not assigned to any checkpoint group.
What can you do?
Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
administrator.
Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
at and manage termination messages, and you can also
keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
The following checkpoint group was used: "No checkpoint group specified"
If in the ASSERT statement the addition FIELDS was used, you can find
the content of the first 8 specified fields in the following overview:
" (not used) "
" (not used) "
" (not used) "
" (not used) "
" (not used) "
" (not used) "

I have a company code CG01 with sales organization CTS0 and I want to transfer or extend all the customer master data to another company code CG03 with the sales organization CTS0
The things that I have tried and not work
using xd01, fd15, fd16, fd01, does not wok and gives the error as above
The things that I have tried and it works
Change the sales organization from CTS0 to CTS1 I am able to post the customer master data, using any of the above tcodes and it does not give any error, however the client wants to sales organization to remain CTS0
So please give me any ideas as per your experience as this transfer of master data has to happen by Monday, else I'll be fried by my boss
My number is 9820029197
Will also keep you'll posted on any developments on this case,
Ronan Pinto

Then you are best person to explain the reason on why the same sales organization, can't be assigned to different company codes. When a sales is done through one sales organization, then will the profit/loss be accounted in different company codes. Is it legally allowed in the country, where your customer is doing business? How you are going to develop the balance sheet? Again being the FI person, you are best judge to provide the details to your customer and not a SD guy.

I dont see any other method than removing the assignments in the backend and uploading the data. You can consult a Basis person to find the change logs for the assignment table. In my opinion, removing the sales organization from a company code assignment just for loading a customer master data and then reassigning to original sales org is a crooked method and/or not a professional method.

> 2) Since I have limited experience of SD, If I have to convince my client about the use of CTS1 sales organisation or a unique sales organisation against his argument that it worked for company code CG02, how should I do it.......

As explained above, how the sales will be accounted in different company codes (even if the system allows to assign the same sales org to different company codes)?
I would recommend you to post this question in FI forum (after closing here) to check what are the legal implications for this scenario.

Question about terms of payment of company code tab of customer master data

Hi:
As I know there are two places to be maintained terms of payment of customer master data, one is in billing documents of sales area data tab and I understood it will default to the one in sales order when you create, another is in company code tab and I don't know what does it be used for? Could you advise?

Hi
Along with the payment terms, the reconciliation account number and the dunning procedure is set specifically for the customer to the particular company code.
This would be the default data for all transactions specific to the customer in specific company code.
If you extend the customer to another company code, you can have different recon, payment terms etc.
All FI transactions are relative to these settings.
In SD when you process, any changes to the particular customer can be modified and it will supercede the default settings of PT

What is the difference of customer master data between CRM and ECC

Dear all,
We are helping customer to evaluate using CRM or ECC to manage there customer master data, focusing on the benefit of using CRM system.
Can any one help to compare the difference between these two system?
some tips in my mind are:
1. CRM has a friendly user interface for user to adjust the layout, hide/display favourite information according to actuall req.
2. In CRM, user can change the field/assignment block description easilly
3. in CRM7.0, user can add new customzing field easilly via AET
4. CRM has a good any analysis platform to provide pie chart analytic
5. CRM store more customer infor. than ECC, such as Marketing attribute, account classfication...anything else?
any other benefit to use CRM for customer master data? Pls help!!!
Thanks very much!!
BR,
Hedy

I would agree with most of the topics you mentioned. Just one remark to topic number 5. Business partner doesn't have more data than erp. It has some more marketing oriented data, but on other hand doesn't have all finincial and credit data that are relevant for erp financial transactions.
In our company we have the following scenario: all business partners are created in crm (because there the sales activities are started and because we don' clasify at the begining all partners as customers but as prospects. and of course it has nicer user interface). but when we are closing the deals (ordreds are transfered to erp), we fill some additional (financial) data of that partner on erp side and clasify partners as customers.

Customer master data creation

Hello Folks,
I need some confirmations please :
1 . customer master data (cmd) is created at account group and company code level.
So, if a customer is a customer of 3 company codes of a company , 3 customer master records needs to be created where the number range of the customer code being the same and the company code is different and the account group remains the same?
2. A customer can buy from any sales area combination in company code, but only 1 customer master record is created ? If so, 1 customer code is for any Sales areas for a customer?
So, Sales area is data fields in a customer master record and only account group and company code and the customer code are key fields in the definition of customer master record?
Please confirm for me. Thanks.
regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
_Extension of the CMR_
a.     If the Customer is buying from under 1 Company Code and multiple Sales Areas then you need to extend the CMR for all sales area.
b.     However when the sales areas change the Customer No., General data and the Company code data does not change
While Extending the CMR by changing the Sales Area:
a.     In XD01 or VD01 enter the Account Group of the customer which is to be extended
b.     Enter the customer no.
c.     Enter the New sales area
d.     The system will take you directly to the sales area data
e.     The Company Code data and the General data cannot be chosen.
While extending the CMR for different company codes:
a. In XD01 or VD01 enter the Account Group of the customer, which is to be extended
b. Enter the customer no.
c.     Enter the New Company code
d.     The system will take you directly to the Company Code Data
e.     The Sales Area Data and the General data cannot be chosen.
While extending the CMR for different company codes and sales Areas:
a. In XD01 or VD01 enter the Account Group of the customer, which is to be extended
b. Enter the customer no.
d.     Enter the New Company code
e.     Enter the New Sales Area
f.     The system will take you to the Company Code Data
g.     Then you can go to the Sales area data.
h.     The General data cannot be chosen.
Tables Used for CMR:
Table Name     Used For
KNA1         General Data
KNVV         Sales Area Data
KNB1         Company Code Data
Q. Why are there 3 Data Groups or 3 different Tables for one customer?
Ans. Since the Customer is expected to buy in more than one sales area and also in some cases in more than one Company code different data sets need to be maintained but however some data remain same, so to avoid data redundancy you maintain 3 different tables.
Hope this helps,
