Sales Area - Maintenance and Replication

Dear experts,
In our scenario (CRM 5.0 interated with ERP 2005):
- We ceate a sold to party BP in CRM
- This BP is replicated as a contract partner in R3 with a SD customer.
1/ We need to maintain ONE sales area in CRM in order to be able to create a service contract (even if I don't understand why ...)
2/ In R/3, we need to maintain in our SD customer FIFTEEN sales area and FIVE company codes.
I configured our Reference Customer in SD with these characteristics (15 sales area and 5 company codes).
If I create the BP in R3 with the contract partner Role, an SD customer is automatically created with these 15 sales area.
I don't change any settings and I create the BP from CRM with 1 sales area. This BP is replicated in R3 with this sales area but doesn't take in consideration the others sales areas maintained in my reference customer, and I have the same issue with the company code. It is like when the BP is created from CRM, this reference customer is no used anymore.
Note: In CRM, I use the B (Customer) classification and I don't use this notion of consummer.
I would greatly appreciate any help,
Thanks in advance,
Stephanie

    Hi,
    If it is not inter company sales document then i think no need of assigning plant to sales area..
    In your case it seems to be you have not maintained plant in sales order..
    Plant will be determined from customer master as first priority then material master as second priority then last manually in sales order..
    So please check have u maintained any plant in customer master or not.. Even same with material master...
    If not please give it mannually in sales order then try and let us know what error your are getting tehre...

  • BP Replication with Sales Area Data

    Hi all,
    We are having an issue with BP replication from CRM to R3. The issue is that when we create a new BP and add sales area data to this Sold-To business partner, the BP is replicated to R3 all blanked out. There is no name, address or any data that is replicated. However, if we create a new Sold-To business partner and do not maintain any sales area data, the replication works as expected. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance. Points will be awarded for helpful responses.

    Yes, the sales area exists in both systems but I get errors for both scenarios...
    When I create a sold-to BP in CRM and maintain Sales Area Data, the error I get is "Business partner #### does not exist as customer, change not possible" (XR012). In the extended data part, there are two entries under Partner table. The first entry appears to be the Update to include sales area, and the second entry appears to be the Insert of a new customer. However, this new customer uses the Reference Customer information.
    When I create a sold-to BP in CRM without Sales Area Data, I get "Updating could not be completed" (S&150). In the Partner table there is one entry and it contains an Insert for the new customer with all of the new data (no reference customer info in there).
    Any ideas?

  • Sales Area Data of BP unavoidable?

    Hi
    i'm workin in a CRM system that has been permanently disconnected from the ERP because of a spind off/management buy out
    I wanted to make standard transaction type CMIC (individual contract) in CRM usable, very very basic, without pricing functionality and any extras, just a manual amount of money to be edited in a product position and that's it.
    I get the error message that the currency is not there and that the sales area data of the BP is not accessable. I get these messages before providing an item oder material number. Just after providing the sold-to-party and pressing enter. No difference if i work in WebUI or in SAP GUI  CRMD_ORDER
    A check shows of the BP in role CRM000 sold-to-prty shows that indeed there is no sales area maintained and no sales area data accessible / all the fields are greyed out
    A check in the customizing shows one distribution channel and even a division but i think the data is corrupt, the sales area choosing fields in the BP are white without content, the BPs dont have any sales area data, all fields are greyed out. So there is no way to write any sales area data into the BP, it would be needed for hundreds of BPs anyway so this is not the way.
    Now the system insists on the currency in the transaction type CMIC. The currency is copied from the sales area data from the BP. It cannot be provided manually. I will have to find a way to achieve this. I just saw, that it is the same with transaction type TA, so i guess all the sales transactions will have that problem in common
    What can i do? I checked the org units in the transaction. They do have an attribute 'Currency' that is filled 'EUR' but the system doesn't care
    The weird thing is that opportunities (with the same BPs and the same product) can be created without errors - and there EUR is provided as currency in the item by default...?
    Any ideas
    Thx

    If you are a functional consultant
    Once the transaction's org determination is done, you can always check the information from the Header Organization tab. This is you know already. If you want to know the Sales Areas a Business Partner (sold-to) is maintained, then go the BP maintenance (Transactio BP ), select the appropriate role - in your case sold-to role of the BP. If you are already not in the Sales Area then click the Sales Area Data button in the toolbar. Then click Choose sales area button in the Sales Area section.Inthe popup, if you click the Maintained Sales Areas, you will see the actual Sales areas the customer has been extended to.
    I am sure you know the above facts too. Well,
    If you are a technical consultant
    The Sales Org details of the transaction can be erad using the function module CRM_ORGMAN_READ-xxx There are more than one FM to read depending upon where you want to read that from - like from the order buffer (good in BAdIs when creating / chaning the order) or fromthe DB. Pick one you want.
    To read the Sales area of a sold to BP, the data is available in the table CRMM_BUT_FRG0080 You can get the maintained sales area information for a given BP.  You can also use the function module CRM_BUPA_FRG0080_READ
    If this is not what you wanted, then you must rephrase your question for me to understand.

  • Sales area duplicated for the Business Partner

    Hi gurus,
    I replicated the BO from R3 to CRM, and all the maintained sales area in R3 have been duplicated in CRM with and wihtout division.
    Example:
    In R3 for the BP 234
    we have the sales area:
    Sales Organization: BIOS
    Distribtn Channel: 01
    Product Division: AA
    And in CRM you have:
    Sales Organization: BIOS
    Distribtn Channel: 01
    Product Division: AA
    And
    Sales Organization: BIOS
    Distribtn Channel: 01
    Product Division: (without division)
    Any one knows if it is normal, or is there a way to stop the replication without division.
    Thanks,
    TPT

    Hi,
    In  the BP go to Sales Area Data and select sales tab. In that select the sales Org,D.Channel,division for which you want to maintain and enter all the detail in all the tabs (shipping,Sales,Billing etc) and save the BP.

    dear friends,
    I have created four account groups - SP ,SH, PY & BP respectively.
    And i have four sales areas - A, B, C , D, so i created 3 different customers in each sales area under sold to party account group.
    Actual problem is when i am trying to edit partners functions for a customer 'X'  in sales area - A ....... it is accepting  customers which are from sales area - A only.
    But i have to use some of  customers from other Sales area - B and assign them to the customer 'X'  in the sales area - A .
    checked all possible assignments ( i.e,) common - distribution channels, divisions, sales org  etc
    please tell me where i went wrong.

  • "sold-to party" role "sales area"

    Hi,
    I'm working at VAR Solution Manager 7.0 SP17.
    When I create a support message from satelllite system or workcenter this support message is created successfully but when I open it at crm_dno_monitor I get two errors:
    Pricing data for partner 323 could not be read.
    Enter a Currency
    About detail error:
    Diagnosis
    The attempt to read the pricing data for the current, valid business partner from the customer master was unsuccessful.
    The access was carried out with sales organization 'O 50000721', distribution channel '' and division ''
    If you have maintained a sales area conversion in R/3 that must be loaded per download into the CRM System (tables SMOTVTA and SMOTVKOS), this sales area is converted before the actual access.
    System Response
    The document is incorrect until the pricing data can be determined.
    Procedure
    The pricing view is probably missing for your business partner in the customer master. Maintain this data. To do this, you can call up transaction BP for maintaining the business partner. In the locator select your business partner and load it by double-clicking. Choose the "sold-to party" role. Press the "sales area" button and choose the sales area given above. Maintain the incorrect data in the billing data screen.
    I know the error reason but I don't know how to solve it. About errors:
    BP 323 is the sold-to party so if I go to TA bp->323->sold-to party role->button "sales area data" -> Sales area->Sales Organization any value appears. The same to Distribution Channel field
    I know that this error is generated by ppoma_crm configuration so at this TA my conf is:
    GRUPOTEC(organizational unit)
    tab function->checkbox sales->checked Sales Organization
    tab function->checkbox service->checked Service Organization
    tab attributes->checked Obj. Permitted in Determination
    tab attributes->country->ES
    Check consistency->green
    GENERAL(organizational unit)
    tab function->service->local->checked service team
    tab attributes-> sales -> NO checked Obj. Permitted in Determination
    tab attributes-> service -> checked Obj. Permitted in Determination
    Check consistency->green
    GENERAL(manager)
    tab attributes-> service -> checked Obj. Permitted in Determination

    Please could you help me?

  • Failing to determine sales area in sales order for many BP's(Sold-To Party)

    Hi Experts
    In SAP CRM version 4.0, when I enter the Sold-to party (BP) in the sales order transaction, for some it determines the sale area automatically and for most of the BP's it is not determining.
    The Determination rule is organizational Model.
    The determination rule used is 91000141 (ZORGMAN_RA = Organization based on BP and trans.)
    Under Container tab in this determination rule, using simulate Rule resolution button, for some BP, it find the agent with green light when I place a BP in the Container element value field but for many BP's, it shows as No agent found.
    Org. data profile used is ZORGPROF_RA (Mandatory are sales Org, Dist. Ch, Sales Off.) and has set the above determination rule.
    In the Organizational model, the General attributes are country, currency, dist. Ch & division.
    So, Why Org determination is working for some BP and not for all.. I've checked each field in BP transaction comparing those BP where the org detrmination is automatic with those where it is not determining...but not able to find a clue also to trace it.
    we are introducting a sales order block in BP (under sales tab) for some specific Sold-To party and in webshop when these Sold-to party are tried to place an order then an error message will show that this "Sold-To party has a  sales area block".
    To achieve this, first the org determination should work automatically for all BP's otherwise for those BP which cannot detrmine the sales area in the sales order transaction will allow to place order (which should not be in our case)
    Can any one throw some light in this case..please do ask if you need more clarification in my question.
    Thank & Regards
    Pravin Babu

    Hello Maggie
    Thanks for your reply.
    I found the cause of the failure, in not determining  the sales area  automatically in sales transaction for some BP's.
    It is due to the BP settings, under sales area view, under organization tab, by pressing 'Choose sale area" button, I can see the sales Organization has uncheck for 'sales'  but it is check for all others - shipping, billing, partner, status, Organization.
    It is due to -> no data mainatined for the BP under Sales tab, after mainatianing it, I can see the check by pressing the 'choose sale area under organization tab.
    Now, in Order transaction, the sale area is determined automatically when I enter the BP.
    So this was the reason that some BP's was able to determine the sales area automatically but not for others in the sales transaction.
    Regards

  • Extend Sales area data of a BP via copy

    Hi,
    Is there any functionality in SAP CRM 2007 to extend the Sales area data for a BP via copying.
    Example: BP 'A' has been created for Sales area 'AB' and the relevant fields have been populated. Later on the BP 'A' needs to be extended to Sales area 'CD', 'EF' and 'GH'. Since only a few fields differ in the different Sales areas a copy of Sales area 'AB' to 'CD', 'EF' and 'GH' is requested. Is that possible?
    In ECC this is possible but I cannot find the similar functionality in CRM.
    Thanks for your help!
    BR,
    //Anders

    You can use AET to extend the sales area data of BP.  However, it wont add the fields automatically in GUI, But the generated fields are available in the relevant DB tables.
    BP GUI transaction is no more supported . Im not sure why you want to work on GUI.

  • Customer not extended to sales area

    Hi experts,
    Even though I have extended a particular customer to the given sales area, division and distribution channel, when I run the program I still get the error saying "Customer not extended to sales area" . What could be the reason for this? I am a ABAPER. I am new to SD transactions.I have checked in xd02. the customer has been extended. Where else should I check?
    Please explain in detail
    Regards
    kalyan

    HI,
    Which program are yout trying to run?
    How did you extend the customer? If through XD01 then try going into XD02/XD03 and enter customer and click on customer sales areas. You should be able to see the sales area that you have extended the customer into !

  • Credit control sales area wise

    Dear Friends,
    Sales organisation model is
    my company is distributor for all manufacturers,  it will take care of credit control
    so  we proposed a sales area  which resembles like this Mumbai -glaxo- pharma,
    Mumbai -Novartis- pharma(sales org-disti chnl-divison) etc.
    this sales areas will contain all customer and materials of glaxo
    some of the stockists are stockists for both glaxo and novartis  so I extend the customer
    to one more sales area
    if I maintain credit control areas w.r.t to sales area wise  what are the implications
    will ready to be happen?
    how can I monitor the total credit for the customer?
    is it necessary to assign a credit control at company code level?
    The process i proposed here is
    I will assign credit control at sales area level
    and I will maintain credit limit details at FD32
    so I can assign credit controls per sales area wise for same customer .
    What are the pros and cons of this process?
    Waiting for replies,
    Thanks

    my dear,
    Here my requirement is i will not assign any credit control area at company code level
    i will assign cca at sales area level only, and it is working fine.
    i need the PROS & CONS when i use like this way.

  • Customer extended to wrong sales area

    Hi,
    We have 3 sales area,
    Sale area one :- 1000-10-20
    Sale area two :- 1000-10-30
    Sale area three :- 1000-10-40
    Customer is created in sales area one, we want to extend this customer to sales area two but by mistake it has been extended to sales area three. I want the customer only in sales area one and two and not in three.i.e in XD02 after entering the customer code, company code, after clicking customer's sales area only sales area one and two should be visible. How can I correct this.
    In similar way some of the views are been added in material master. How can I correct this.

    Hello
    You can use transaction VD06, but what you will do is you will only set a flag for deletion
    Deletion process is not that easy, because you could potentially have some documents created for that customer. so if system will allow you to delete completely, that it will create inconsistencies. If you want to delete the customer master data completely you will need to work with archiving process.
    Its better you only block the customer (please use VD05 for it)
