Reference field

Dear SAP gurus,
Is there any way that can make me do validation on the reference field in transactions of FICO. I need it not to accept duplicate entries.
Thanks

Reference field and table for AUFK for F4 help in alv.

Hi All,
   I need to put F4 help on ALV for order no (AUFK) what is the reference field and table for that?
i tried giving field as aufk and table as ccss but its not working.
   ls_fcat-ref_field = 'AUFNR'.
    ls_fcat-ref_table = 'CCSS'.
Thanks & Regards,
Ruchi Tiwari

Hi,
Try this.
Set the f4 help for the field in the fieldcatalog
ls_fcat-f4availabl = 'X'.
1. Create a event of ONF4 for the alv grid.
2. Set the event handler.
3. Append the field for the F4 help in the internal table and call the below method
    CALL METHOD g_mprn->register_f4_for_fields
    EXPORTING
      it_f4 = i_f4.
4. create a class definition and implementation
    refer sample pgms (BCALV_F4, BCALV_GRID_EDIT_DELTA and BCALV_GRID_EDIT)
Hope this may be helpful.

Sharin.

Excise invoice number getting reflected in the reference field in VF01

Hello,
I require excise invoice number to get get reflected in the reference field of billing document number . (i.e accounting document generated from VF01)
Thanks,

Dear Muscan,,
As per STANDARD SAP PROCESS this functionality is not Possible. The reason is very clear, Excise Invoice is always created after creating billing/invoice document. Without creating excise invoice you cannot have excise invoice number reflected in the reference field of billing document.
Hope this clarifies your doubt?

How to use the Cross Reference fields in P4P

I have been receiving questions related to the Cross Reference section from many different customers and partners. This post represents my attempt to describe the Cross Reference Section and the Equivalent Numbers stored within.
Identity
A term that Kelly uses and I will borrow is “identity”. A given specification can have many identities. The basic identity is the specification number generated by GSM. This is useful during early stages of design. Once we get past a draft or development status in the workflow the organization quickly wants to identify the specification in other ways. Examples include:
Execution System Number: Operations and Supply Chain quickly need to formalize an item or material for forecasting, inventory and purchasing…
Custom Numbering Conventions: Sometimes an organization has very specific custom logic for identifying materials. Usually terms like smart numbering are used to describe their methods.
Data Migration Identifier: In some cases customers have extensive data clean up projects. As part of the effort systems and processes are developed and an identity is created. In my experience we loaded a “Base Stock” number to represent Packaging Materials. The label stock that was commonly used was historically not represented so we created a number as part of the migration project.
Identity Functionality:
The Fields: The four major fields that make up the Cross Reference section are as follows:
>>System Name: This field describes the system generating the identifier. Examples I like to use are Oracle EBS or SAP Material Master. Sometimes geography must also be concatenated to the system, i.e. Oracle EBS – NA. This occurs when the customer is a large multinational where multiple ERP implementations exist. Therefore the same material may be known by many different numbers, i.e. Oracle EBS – NA = 77432, Oracle EBS – EU = 88883.
>>System Code: The system code is merely the syntax used during integration. Using CSS or various APIs you may chose to identify the system using an abbreviation, EBSNA or SAPMM.
>>Equivalent: The value representing the identity within a given system.
>>Externally Managed: If you are using CSS or an API to receive Cross Reference data you can define the field as "Externally Manged". When a cross reference is marked in this manner the general user community will not be able to edit the field. Administrators associated with the role [Externally_Managed_Cross_Ref_Admin] can edit the field if needed.
Syndication: While some users enter equivalent numbers manually, others use integration tools to generate and transmit identities. If a given cross reference is marked as “Externally Managed” then users are unable to manually enter data. On initial syndication the specification will not have a given equivalent. The specification is sent to middleware, a number is generated by the appropriate system and the response is sent back to GSM to add the System Code to the specification with the appropriate identity value.
Copy verses Issue:
>>Copy: When a user copies a specification the Cross Reference data is NOT included. Since the identities refer to the originating specification it does not make sense to carry over to the copy. If we did then users would quickly need to delete the data.
>>Issue: When a user issues a specification it maintains the Cross Reference data. This is an important concept because it is expected that a system like GSM will have many issues related to a single ERP #. ERP systems are usually not interested in many of the fields stored in the Product Data Management system.
Reference: As raw materials are consumed as inputs into Formulation or Trade Specifications the organization may come to identify the materials based on equivalent numbers. Therefore GSM allows for an equivalent number to appear next to the GSM number.
Implementation Issue: Ingredients In Packaged Quantities
Some customers run into a situation where the ingredient specification does not represent a packaged quantity. From an R&D perspective the developer does not care if the material comes in a box or a tanker. In this situation the GSM ingredient may be represented in the ERP system by many items and therefore more than one cross reference value. These items represent packaging differences that are important to purchasing, manufacturing, warehousing, and other execution systems.
I hope this helps describe some of the purposes and implementation issues around the Cross Reference field.

You need to get jmf.jar in your CLASSPATH, either on the command line, in an environment variable, by putting a symlink in $JAVA_HOME/lib/ext, whatever works for you. Have you done that? Once it's in the classpath, you can run jmstudio from any directory with the command "java JMStudio".
Items in the bin directory are just shell scripts, run with "sh jmstudio" or whatever suits your shell (on Mac OS X, copy one of these guys and append ".command" to the filename to make him double-clickable in the Finder).

How to set a default value in the "Our reference"-field in purchse orders?

Hi!
When creating a purchase order the "Our reference"-field in the Communication-tab is empty. Is it possible to configure this so that the field is filled by default with the name of the person who is creating the PO?

Hi,
There is a button named Personal Settings on ME21N screen. Click on that button --> Click on second tab of Default Values --> Click on More fields --> Select Our reference and maintain the default value. This will always come up at the time of creation of PO.
Hope this serves the purpose.
Thanks...

Reference field of invoice not filled in PO history

The reference field of the invoice (INFVO-XBLNR) is not copied into the EKBE-XBLNR. I couldn't find an OSS note to solve the problem. Please advise.
Kind regards,
Annerie Deckers

Hello,
Table EKBE is only updated if "GR-Based IV" indicator is active at Purchase order item level.
Only then field EKBE-XBLNR is updated with the value of the corresponding GR doc. reference field (MKPF-XBLNR) and not with the value of the RBKP-XBLNR (logistics invoice).
There is also a note explaining the case link:[Note 383828 - ME23N: Reference in the purchase order history]

The reference field in MIRO has to be displayed in Purchase Order History. For PO's with GR Based IV the field is copied from GR and for PO's without GR based IV it is blank. We want the data from MIRO to be displayed in PO History in the reference field of IR.
Thanks to provide the information regarding the settings for the same.

Dear all,
I have a problem.
In ME21N, I need to show a warning message (message w... ) when user enter an already-used-before input in "Our reference' field (EKKO-UNSEZ).
I've tried in two methods.
1. Using fm EXIT_SAPMM06E_004. But it can only works for Error message. My warning message never shows up.
2. Tried to implement classic BADI ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST, using the PROCESS_HEADER method. Got the break-point spot on, but still didn't show the warning message.
Why is my warning message always got override?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance

SO number in reference field in accounting doc after GI posting

Hello,
In the header of accounting document, which is being created after posting goods issue, in the "Reference doc." field delivery number is displayed.
Is it possible to have in this field sales order number?? If so, where can I change this set up?
Regards,
Sylwia

Hi Sylwia,
This goes to the same explanation I gave you in previuos inquiry. Talk with you Sales & Distribution folks or go to the set up of copy control strategy that drives transfer of information "Copying control: Delivery document to billing document" (Tcode: VTFL). Select the right combination Billing/Delivery and change the header reference field to capture the sales order number. Again when the financial document is released to accounting the value would be transferred.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
GG

Re: Reference field to change red alert message. How?

Hi FICO Consultant,
We are using T-Code: FBL1N, using our com code and execute the report. In this report, we have used the reference field for company purpose key in the same reference no.: (EX: 789100). The same number appeared again on the screen (Reference No.). That time red alert message appeared on the screen or an existing same reference in this field. Any body gives the idea to me in FICO.
We expect the reply from you.
Thank you,
Regards,
Krishnan.

The icons are a function of the Alert style: that can only be changed in the property palette. I'don't believe there is any way of substituting your own icons for the Oracle ones short of overwriting the Oracle supplied files with graphics of your own. However, we can set the Alert Title and Message Text programmatically with the SET_ALERT_PROPERTY built-in.
Cheers, APC

Payment Reference Field KIDNO Not apprearing at the time of Vendor Payment

Hi,
When we are making the Vendor Payment thru F-53, we are not able to see the Payment Reference Field KIDNO there. But when the payment document is posted and we see the line items then this field KIDNO comes there as non-modifiable field. We want to fill some information there in that field for some report purposes. Can you please help me, how can I see this field as changable field at the time of making vendor paymnts thru F-53.
Regards.

Hi Senthilkumar,
Change the field status for the 'payment reference field' to optional or required, based on your requirements. You can do this in T.Code - FBKP.
Do this:
a) Check the field status group maintained in the master data of the Reconciliation account of the vendor.
b) In t.code - FBKP, click on 'Field Status Groups' and enter the variant created for your company code
c) Now from the resultant entries, double click on the field status group which has been maintained in the master data of the Reconciliation account of the vendor.
d) Double click on 'Payment transactions', you would see 'Payment Reference' there which would be having its status as 'Suppressed'. Just change it to Optional or Required!!

Check no in reference field in F110

Hello,
Is there a way for when the checks are processed to have this automatically populated in reference field of payment document in transaction F110.
Or can we put manually in F110. But I did not find the reference field in F110 to key in.

Tapan

Hello!
1. Please review the below note
   30380 RFFOUS_C - Check number not stored in document
   As per note 30380,
   Point 5. As of Release 4.0C Report RFCHKU00 is delivered in the
   standard system which copies the check number into a selected
   reference field of the document. You can this program.
2. Also review
   213551     F110: Reference document not transferred
   335893     F110:Fill ref. document no. of payment doc w/
These two notes above mention another to way fill your requirements. But, note 213551 is a modification note and you should read the documentation about modification notes before trying the solution.

Reference field value in the F110 Payment document

Dears
We are running the automatic payment run for the vendor invoices posted.
In each vendor invoice, we have filled the reference field, text field, etc. However, while running the payment in F110, the system does not reproduce this reference field value in the payment document. Hence we are not able to match the items for comparison.
Have we left out any setting in FBZP or somewhere ?

Hello,
Apart from above suggestions, you can check linked invoices to payment document through below option.
Open payment document in FB03, go to Menu->Environment->Payment usage
This will list all invoices cleared through that payment document.
If you are looking for tables, Pass payment document number , company code, year, account type and account to AGKO table and get the clearing date. Pass these details to BSAK and get list of cleared documents.
AUGDT = Clearing date from AGKO
AUGBL= Clearing document from AGKO
and other details passed earlier.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

How to clear Documents using XBLNR(Reference field) through Manual BRS-FF67

I want to clear GL line items in clearing account using Manual BRS(FF67) with reference to "XBLNR" field(Reference). IS there any standard Algorithm which SAP provided for reference field or if we want to develop ne algorithm then how to create.
Thank in advance.
Best Regards
Raj

Hello Raj,
It is not possible to clear an open item on a g/l account via the
reference document number. The automatic clearing with interpretation
algorithm 021/001 only takes place, if the item, which should be cleared
is on a customer/vendor account. So it could never find open G/L items.
The reason is that the reference number is usually not unique
so it could lead to wrong clearings.
A workaround therefore would be to use:
a) another interpretation algorithm depending on the note to payee
   data are available.
b) the user exit 1 (described in note 494777, point 1) if there are
   no other information available as the reference number.
c) the report SAPF124/E to clear these items afterwards. Then the bank
   statement should only post FB01 without clearing. The requirements
   are criteria to assign and clear the suitable items.
Regards,
Renan
