Hi Gurus,
Can you help me find out a vendor spend report in SAP for vendors which belong to same company and are linked to each other with a field in the vendor master- "Corporate group"
This field is in the Control tab of the vendor master.
Regards
Kapil

1. you need to get a list of all vendor in that account group
2. get the purchasing documents for these vendors in the specified company code
3. from the purchasing documents find the purchase order history to see if any invoice exists take all the invoice nos. per PO for each vendor
4. goto RSEg and give the invoice doc. nos.
you will get the details of all payments made as in price and the qty.

Vendor Master Field Group Authorizations

Hi guys,
I want to give the authorization to specific users for only changing a few fields in the Vendor Master.
There is an authorization field in the vendor master ( XK02 ) under control Tab. But how do we create this authorization ?
There is also define vendor field groups where we can restrict which fields to be changeable by the user. But how do we link these field groups to the vendor master?
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Srikanth.

HI,
You can use dual control to provide more security when changes are made to sensitive data in your customer and vendor master records. This function can be used for changing customer master records (FI-AR) and vendor master records (FI-AP).
Prerequisites: You must define the required sensitive fields in the customer or vendor master record in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable->Customer Accounts-> Master Records->Preparations for Creating Customer Master Records->Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control.
You must be authorized to change master records. You also define authorizations in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Financial Accounting Global Settings->Maintain Profiles. The person who makes the changes is never allowed to confirm his or her own changes.
Features: You can define the required master data fields as sensitive in Customizing.
When an authorized accounting clerk changes a sensitive field in the customer or vendor master record (such as Alternative Payee), the relevant account is blocked for the payment run. The changes take effect immediately. The account remains blocked until a second authorized person confirms the master data changes. However, it is still possible to make a further change to an account that is already blocked. The second authorized person is informed of the changes by mail or by other means, and then uses the function Master records->Confirmation of change->Single (or->List) to edit the changes.
If the second authorized person does not confirm the master data change, the relevant account continues to be blocked for the payment run. The changes are likewise not reset.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need anyother information.

FI-AP (vendor master group, Zip code required field)

Hello SAP Guru's,
I am working on Vendor master data groups and my client asked me to make the zip code field mandatory. When i go to "define account groups with screen layout- vendor name-general data- address, i don't see a tab for Zip code to make it a required field. However, i checked Postal code, city field and make it into a required field. Is zip code = Postal code, city? or do i have to contact other programmers so they can design this functionality in SAP?

Dear,
yes, I also confirm You that the Zip code is the Postal code.
So please go to IMG --> Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Vendors)
and for Your Account Group do the following setting:
double click on General data --> double click on Address
and define as Required entry the field Postal code, city technical names:
City LFA1-ORT01
Postal Code LFA1-PSTLZ
I hope this helps You.

Solved - Group Fields for Vendor Master Records in IMG

This was the solution.
The new field's data element I added to LFB1 did not have the "change document" field checked. I made that change and now that field shows up in IMG.
Hello all,
I added an append structure to the table LFB1. This structure has 1 field. I then created a "Modification-Free Enhancement of Vendor Master Record" to add the new LFB1 field to the vendor master screen, edit and display screens. This is the 3rd time I have done this. So far so good.
Now our functional analyst went into IMG to add this new LFB1 field to a "Group Fields for Vendor Master Records" which we have done 2 other times.
The new LFB1 field does not show up in the list of possible Table-fields.
There must be some other step I am missing.
Does any of this ring a bell? We are on version 4.7.
Thanks
Bruce
p.s.
This is the IMG path for adding 'Field Groups' to vendor master fields.

Hi Vandana,
There are several tables that are contain Vendor Master related data which can be used for extraction to BW. Some of the tables which can be useful for you are:
LFA1 : Vendor Master (General Section)
LFM1 : Vendor master record purchasing organization data
LFBW : Vendor master record (withholding tax types) X
WYT3 : Partner Functions
LFBK : Vendor Master (Bank Details)
LFB1: Vendor Master (Company Code)
ADRC: Addresses (Business Address Services)
ADR3: Fax Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADR6: SMTP Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADRT: Communication Data Text (Business Address Services)
You may use the Data sources mentioned in the previous update from Venky above namely :
0VENDOR_ATTR --- for master data attributes
0VENDOR_TEXTS -- For texts
Since the fields that you are using are from different tables so its better if you go for a Generic Data source where you can use the fields as per your requirement.
Thanks

Report for vendor master changes

Good day,
Please can you assist with this issue,
Report S_ALR_87012089,program RFKABL00
Version ECC 6.0
This report does not reflect the old and the new values for changed bank details.
It does not show anything under the old value and shows **deleted** and **created** for new values.
Thanks in advance

You will have to do configuration in T Codes OBAT and OBAU to achieve what you want in the report.
Check the IMG activity documentation for the following.
SPRO -> IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Vendor Accounts -> Master Records -> Preparations for Changing Vendor Master Records -> Define Field Groups for Vendor Master Records.
SPRO -> IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Vendor Accounts -> Master Records -> Preparations for Changing Vendor Master Records -> Group Fields for Vendor Master Records.

Business Partner Invoicing Party from vendor master in ECC

Hi!
Does anyone have experience from using partner function invoicing party in vendor master in ECC, and copying it over til business partner in SRM.
We have business requirements to have several invoicing parties for a specific vendor. In ECC, if you do this set up, you get a pop up when creating a purchase order. In the pop-up you are asked to select the invoicing party that should be used for the purchase order. We would like to have similar functionality in SRM. What are the possibiliies?
We have configured SRM with partner determination schema. This allows us to define an invoiceing party in SRM purchase order. However we would like to get suggestions based on what has been maintained in the vendor master in ECC. What actions need to be taken to obtain this? Does anyone have experience?
Many thanks,
Christine Hammerströ

This could be a big gap in SAP.
Vendor master did not fully synchronised with SRM.
Classic, you may not find this difficulty and we may not require to take this invoicing party.
this is one factor needs to considered before go for technical scenario but sap can do any thing...
check with SAP.

Vendor Master or F-58 field

Good Day,
We are doing download program which involves F-58 to bank as a process of automatic payment. In this file that will be sent to bank to process payment, the bank requires SAP to capture a field which will indicate "Agent Charge" . Agent Charge is similar to bank charge.
Agent Charge field will have to just show three (3) scenarios where
1- Beneficiary - Vendor will bear the cost
2- Company - The company will bear the cost
3- Shared between Company and Beneficiary.
We just need a field that can cater or indicate the above scenario in SAP (either Vendor master or F-58 ). User should be able to select during the F-58 or in Vendor level .
I have search in Vendor Master but no idea which field that i can configure. And all text fields in F-58 are in use.
Appreciate your kind advice.

Dear,
This can be done with some program modification to F-58, ask your ABAPer to do a customized program for your requirement.

Report on field Corporate Group (Group key) of the Vendor Master

Hi,
We have a vendor with for example 4 different locations. In SAP we have therefore 4 different vendor masters. We want to report not only per seperate vendor master but also we want to report on the vendors corporate level. Now we have populated the field Corporate group (Group key) on all 4 vendor masters.
Are there any financial reports where you can use the field Corporate group (Group key) from the vendor master to consolidate on?
If there are other solutions for reporting in this case then please let me know.
Regards,
Roel van Loon

Hi
I hope it is corporate group under account control tab in VM general data. If you maintain any data here - you can use vendor open line item report (FBl1n) to get the report on open items cleared items for these vendors collectively. You can see this option in dynamic selection in report - vendor master tab.
Thanks

FB03 display restrictions by using corporate group field of Vendor master

We had new requirement for the FB03 Transaction display.
1> In vendor master data we are assigning the Secure and non-secure for the corporate account group field. Based on the Secure and non-secure, we have to restrict the FB03 transaction display.
2> If itu2019s secure vendor, then no one should have authorization to display the documents belongs to these vendors of any transactions (Fb03 or FBL1N).
So based on this criteria we need to restrict the display for FB03 transaction.
thanks and regards
Prathap

Hello Pratap
Please seek help from your SAP BASIS
How it works is
1. You have a T code
2. You see which roles use it
3. Then accordingly you can tag that role to the User
4. Moreover when basis works they check in SUIM t code as to which roles the T code is tagged to and then they go ahead and assign the same to the user
5. There is another t code PFCG where they create z roles as well since standard roles are not used by them. And in this t code the authorisation objects are handled as well and profiles and roles are created. This is then tagged to a user.
6. then this authorisation is visible in SU01 in the user
Thanks and Regards

Vendor Master Management - How to make 'Corporate Group' field an autoupdat

Vendor Master Management - How to make 'Corporate Group' field an automatically updated field
Frnz,
I am doing a Spend Analysis and thereby restructring some aspects of SAP and business processes. One of the intiatives is to leverage the 'Corporate Group' field in Vendor Master for getting the consolidated spend visibility at the corporate group level of vendors. So far this field wasn't been used to effect. I can update it manually, but the question remains is how do I do with the change management of the corporate group of large vendor base in the scenario of everhappening Mergers and Acquisitions. Are there any alternatives anybody can suggest ? (Like linking D&B numbers etc)
Thanks in advance for your suggestions..

Hi Shiv,
Let me elaborate the purpose of using this field. I want to have a consolidated spend visibility across a corporate group which has multiple vendor codes. Its difficult everytime to group the spends of these vendors manually especially when the number of vendors are too high. Also sometimes the names of vendor companies may not indicate that these are from same corporate group but in fact they could be. In order to have the reports generated on corporate groups, I must maintain this field in vendor master or a Z table. But the problem here is, it should be possible to update this field as and when there are any mergers or acquisitions at vendor side and the corporate group of a particular vendor gets changed due to this. So this has to be effected in vendor master or Z-table automatically. I do know that there are certain agencies like Dunn & Brad (DNB) which provide possibly the details on corporate group of a company but its not fully effective for Indian Vendors as its not mandatory on them to have DNB number & also its a disconnected process and I was looking to connect it seamlessly to Corporate Group field so that I need not bother to update these things manually everytime. I also wanted to explore various possibilities of doing this.
I hope I have spelled it out correctly.

Different vendor group, but 1 vendor master

Dear Friends,
Can I have this facility in SAP.
Different account groups to be maintained, but vendor master should be created only 1 vendor master with common no.
Display separate balances for vendors in Balance Sheet as:
Creditors for Material Purchase
Creditors for Capital Purchase
Creditors for Acceptance
Regards,
Ram

Hi,
Better to use Define Alternative Reconciliation Account for Vendors like
1. Creditors for Material Purchase - xxx1
2. Creditors for Capital Purchase - xxx2
3. Creditors for Acceptance - xxx3
Sundry creditors -
xxxx0 Main Recon account.
In this step, you define accounts which show the posting of a
corresponding special G/L transaction to the general ledger. The
postings are made to these accounts instead of to the normal
reconciliation account.
Path:
SM30 --> table V_THKON.
Hope it clear.

Carrier Details on Field status group for vendor master

Hi,
I have a requirement to make the SCAC and Carrier freight group as required fields on vendor master .
but the standard SAP system requires/ allows three fields : SCAC , carrier freight group and Service agent procedure group as mandatory to be activated under the 'carrier details ' column in the field status group (transaction OB23 and OBD3).
I want to know if there is a way to flag just the SCAC and carrier freight group as required fields for entry in vendor master .
Thanks
Naga Yarramsetty

Hi All,
Thanks for your reply. With user exit and validation, I cannot create mandatory mark in FS00. Actually SAP make this description always mandatory. But there is no mandatory mark in this column. I just want to create mandatory mark in this column. Need you advice.
Thanks,
John

Schema group on vendor master ..?

hi all
Can anybody explain me about the schema group in MM
1. what is schema group
2.Its significance
3.Where to configure//
Thanks
sap-mm

Hi,
Group for calculation schema (vendor): - Determines which calculation schema (pricing procedure) is to be used in purchasing documents containing this vendor number.
Use: - You can use the schema group to specify the calculation schema per purchasing organization or vendor. The relevant calculation schema is determined by reference to the schema group.
The effect of this is that the conditions to be maintained in a purchasing document can differ depending on the relevant purchasing organization or vendor.
If a calculation schema is only to be valid for certain purchasing organizations or vendors, proceed as follows:
1. Define the schema group for the purchasing organization or the vendor using the relevant function in the menu "Calculation schema -> Schema groups".
2. Assign the schema group to the calculation schema via "Calculation schema -> Determine schema".
3. Enter the schema group for the vendor in the vendor master records to which the calculation schema is to be assigned. Assign the schema group of the purchasing organization to the relevant purchasing organization using "Calculation schema -> Schema group -> Assign to purch. org.".
You can configure it in path SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Conditions > Define Price Determination Process > Define Schema Group, here do following;
Schema Groups: Vendor
Schema Groups for Purchasing Organizations
Assignment of Schema Group to Purchasing Organization

Vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group

Hi experts!
Thank you for pay attention to my message! I have a question about the fields in customer master date.
What does it mean or what will happen to the customer master if I entry a vendor no. or a company ID for trading partner in the field vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group in the customer master general data?
In other words, in which business scenario or situation should I entry data in these fields:
vendor, trading parner, authorization and corporate group in the customer master general data?
Thank you for your help!
TangDark.

Hi,
Vendor- when the customer is also a vendor( i.e. supplying any form of product- raw material) you need to enter vendor no.
Trading partner- If this customer is trading with other company code of the same client.
Authorization- To protect access of the data maintained
Corporate group- If customer belongs to a group ,maintain group key here.
Thanks,
Vrajesh
