Sold-To Party and Reported missing when doing Help - Create Support Message

Sorry, I know this has been asked multiple times, but I'm missing something in the responses.  The responses I am finding either don't seem to apply to my situation, or aren't detailed enough to explain what I'm supposed to be doing.
Solution Manager 7.0 EhP1 SAPKITL435.
If we try to do a "Help - Create Support Message" from within our production Solution Manager system, the "Reported by" field is correct, but the Sold-To Party is blank.
If we try to do a "Help - Create Support Message" from within our non-production Solution Manager system, both the "Reported by" and  Sold-To Party fields are blank.
If we try to do a Help - Create Support Message" from another SAP system whose RFC is pointing to our non-production Solution Manager system, both the "Reported by" and  Sold-To Party fields are blank.
I've looked at IB52, as well as the SPRO activities under "Partner Determination Procedure."  I think a big part of my problem is that they just don'e make sense to me yet, because I can't figure out what I should be changing.
For example, IB52 looks to me like it only applies if you want to assign something to the same person all the time.  Am I missing something there, or is that an answer to a different question?
I also can't figure out if I need to create something new in "Define Access Sequences," or modify something existing, and, if I modify, to what?
Does anyone know where I could find specific instructions for setting this up?

Hi Brenda,
Regargind this issue, please check if Sold-To party is maintained for
your system with IB52 in your solman system as the steps below:
SOLUTION MANAGER system
->IB52
->select the system on left hand side
->click on 'goto' on top menu
->Select 'partner'
->Now maintain Sold-To party
Also check below note:
1165357    Sold-to-Party is not assigned to Service Desk messa
As you said ou already assigned then i would request you to please check if you have assigned at the system level or not. Somtimes people define at top of the tree and also at system level. Please assign at system level and delete all other. Most of the times this is the issue Sold-to-party doesnt fill automatically.
For reported by field:
Please check the note: 824640: Customizing missing for Service Desk in Solution
read this note carefull and this will help you fixing the reported by issue.
Please, make sure you have applied the following corrections:
1439191 Incident Create: Message Reporter or Processor is not saved
1486132 Incident Create: Enhance search help of Reporter field
1497700 Work center: Message details not updated after refresh
After this if you still having issue you need to provide more details but i think this will fix the issue.
Thanks

  • Service Desk Message - Sold-to Party and Reported by

    Hi Team,
    The Sold-to Party, Reported by are automatically populated in CRMD_ORDER whenever I create Service Desk Message from Satellite Systems, But when I create Support Message in Solution Manager, these does not get populated.
    Thanks,

    Hi NIshkam ,
    If you are creating the support message from help->create support message in solution manager
    Please check the following
    1. Whether the solution manager is set up in the I-Base in transaction IB52.
    2. Check if your ID is maintained in the identification tab of Business Partner for the    solution manager server.
       (path : transaction- BP -> enter the login ID ->Select change in BP role as Business Partner (Gen.)
                -> Select the Identification tab.)
       your ID should be maintained as below for the solution manager:
    ID Type              System - Installation Number - Client - BP ID
    CRM0001             zzz   - xxxxxxxxxx          -   999  - login ID.
    if these are done then system should be able to recognize the reported by and sold to party.
    if you are using CRMD_ORDER trasnaction for the creation of the support message, then the reported by field, SAP Component field and I-Base are entry fields and are not automated. On entering these and save the reported by , support team and Sold to party will be determined base on your configuration.
    check if this of help,
    regards,
    Srinivas

  • Default value for Sold to Party and Reported By with Support Message

    I have customized the service desk scenario and went through the entire service desk implementation guide part I blog that talks about the partner setup.
    When I create a support message through the service desk scenario (under help) in the satellite system it does default the sold-to-party and the reported by person in the resulting document.
    When I create a support message in Solution Manager out of DSWP or SOLAR02 it does as well.
    However when I create the support message out of Solution Manager under help it does NOT default the sold to party and reported by, and I always have to correct that in the document later on.
    Has anyone experienced this before and can tell me why this happened. Obviously has something to do with setting up the partner in Solution Manager, but I do not understand how it can work for the Satellite system but not in Solution Manager itself.
    Thanks
    Paul

    > Has anyone experienced this before and can tell me why this happened. Obviously has something to do with setting up the partner in Solution Manager, but I do not understand how it can work for the Satellite system but not in Solution Manager itself.
    Did you generate BP entries for the SolMan system itself?

  • ERROR when Trying to create support message in satellite system

    Hi
    I have a wired problem.
    My user's are opening support message in the solman through the ECC system.
    But when a user is open a support message with the component FI he get the following message:
    "Error in Local Message System: Component FI does not exist: Check your entry Message was Not Created"
    I'm working with ECC6 and SOLAMN 4.
    Why I can't generate support message with the component "FI" ?
    Please advice
    Best regards
    Lior Grinberg

    Hi
    SAP Component is FIN Financials not FI that is why I thnk u r getting an error.
    Normal process is
    Whenever your user will post any message from any Transactions of FI module in ECC they goto help->create support message
    This will automatically fill the SAP Component
    Secondly if they are posting from initial logon screen they can choose the value by pressing F4 in SAP component field
    Hope it solves ur problem

  • Sold to party and Ship to party are the same but has different address

    Hi,
    I have problem here wherein Sales order has the same sold to party and ship to party but they have different address. When the customer master data is changed the sold to party in the sales order is also updated but the ship to party is not updated.
    I've checked the table VBPA and I noticed that the value of ship to party VBPA-ADRDA is 'E' (manually enetered).
    Is this the reason why the address of ship to party in sales order is not updated whenever the customer master is change?
    Another question, how does ship to party entered in sales order manually?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Please correct me if I have understood the scenario incorrectly which I try to explain below:
    Sales order is created where SP and SH both have same address initially and while creating the SO, address of the SH was changed manually by Header>partners>SH
    Now master data for that customer is changed for address. As per the standard functionality of SAP, all sales order created for that customer will have new address for SP only.
    If address of SH needs to be changed in SO, it has to be done manually by the same way as explained in the above mails.
    As far as manually entering the SH in SO is concerned, system will automatcally selects the SH if only one record is available for SH. If you have specified more than one SH, system will give you an option to select one by displaying a pop up.
    Please let me know if you find this explanation suitable.

  • One Sold to party and 250 ship to party (MTO Process)

    Dear Experts,
    Please provide me the solution with your valuable experience.
    Issue is: We are working on MTO process. and I am working in SD on sales order.
    issue is here that I have one SP(Sold to party) and many ship to party. I have created 250 Ship to party under one Sold to party in XD02 partner function . But now what we want that, we want to make single sales order and want to distribute same Finish Good to different parties.
    Example: Making SO: 1000 with one SP and One SH and Finish Good is FG0001(Same Finish Good we want to distribute into different parties). Finish Good comes Bit n pieces and when we do availability  check then it is done with wherever amount of Finish Good we got. First time it is ok and send to one ship to party with delivery now again we got some Finish Good and doing availability check but this time again the ship to party is same but we want to change it for different ship to party with in single Sales order.
    Please provide me the solution for this how we can proceed with single sales order.
    Thanks for your time.
    Smith

    Thanks Ragu,
    Issue is
    One Sales Order(MTO) suppose quantity is 100 and now I am doing delivery 20 with 5 items each from sales order item level(Changing SH every time at item level with WRT quantity acc to SH, delivery is coming fine.) Now We have to apply postal charges on each delivery.
    Postal charges depends on weight and the distance of items that are packed in case or in Boxes.
    Example: First delivery is of 5 items and the weight of 5 item is 100kg after packing now delivery guys tell the charges wrt to distance, if they are sending via Speed post then cost will be 100*5 (1km per 1RS so if distance is 5km then charges will be 5rs)=500rs
    Now this 500rs we want to add in our billing per bill or collective also like total = price +500 should come.
    Please suggest me how should i configure this step by step.
    Thanks

  • Sold to party and Ship to part y fields in VA01 disabled.

    01.10.2008
    Hi friends,
    In one of the client when i use transaction code VA01 for a particular document type i find the Sold to Party and Ship to party are greyed off. I am not able to enter any data into it.
    In the sand box the same document type works fine. How will i trace which transaction variant is linked which is disabling this fields. Please advise.
    Regards,
    udaynath.

    Hi Krishnan
    It is not the problem with the Document type.
    I think,you have not assigned the "Partner Type" to the "Partner Function".
    Just go to your Partner determination Procedure in IMG, go to  "Partner Function" folder in the dialog box.
    Select your Sold-to-party and assign the "Partner Type" KU (Customer) to it.
    Similarly assignthe Partner Type KU to your Ship-to-party and save it.
    Now, create an order and there will be no problem.

  • OB20 - Sold-to-party and Payer

    How do I see if a customer master requires the use of a RECONCILIATION account? basically i want to see if the Recon account is a REQUIRED entey or not.
    I can use OB20 to pull it up but how do i specifically find the "Field Status Group" for "Sold-to-party" and "Payer"?
    Thanks

    hi
    There is no need of field selection group...when you go into the OVT0...select the sold to party or payer and check the details...
    Insdie details, You'll see the field status group, you can double click on the "general data" or "co code data" or "sales data"...when you go inside it....you can assign the field status...

  • Sold to party and ship to address is different

    Dear Experts,
    Sold to party and ship to party is different  address but when invoice is happened sold toparty adrees  displayed in ship to party
    how i can make the changes for ship to party kindly help me in this regards
    Thanks a
    Basavaraj

    Hi,
    This is what you needs to do.
    Create your Sold to Party "A" using the Account Group "Sold to Party" from Tx: XD01
    Then Create your Ship to Party "B" using the Account Group "Ship to Party" from Tx: XD01
    Then go to you Sold to Party using Tx: XD02
    Go to Sales area data / Partner tab
    Add your Ship to Party "B" there with Partner Function "Ship to Party"
    Save
    Now create a sales order from Sold to Party "A"
    Enter Sold to Party "A" and press enter
    You will get a pop up to select relevant Ship to Party for the Sales Order Header level with "A" or "B"
    Select relevant one at there.
    If you select "B" at the header, same will get copied to all line items later. Else you can select "A" and then change only the relevant line item partner to Ship to "B" at Item level as well.
    When you create delivery, relevant Ship to will be picked form the line item level.
    You can do same for Bill to Party and Payer as well.
    Best regards,
