Change Logs for customer master data in 3.1 H version

Hello All
Are they any existing reports or change logs for viewing changes to customer master data in 3.1h version. I want to be able to report based on changes made to customer master.
I know there is a good report in 6.0 version for this- S_ALR_87012182.
If I have to develop a custom program for this in 3.1h. Which table I should use? KNA1 or CDPOS.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Hema.

Hi,
Please check the filter settings maintained for the adapter object CUSTOMER in R3AC1. The same filter settings can be referred in tables Table: CRMFILTAB (R/3) and SMOFFILTAB(CRM) as per srinivas's reply.
Check the sales area of the customer maintained (Sales Area, Division, Distribution Channel etc.) and see if the current filter settings are restricting the customer from getting replicated in CRM. If everything is maintained fine then check for any failure Bdocs in SMW01 or SMW02.

Impacts in COPA of changing material and customer master data

Dear experts,
In my company we are considering following scenario:
Currently mySAPerp 6.0 is implemented for all modules for the mother company.
We have developed a new global template where there are significant changes versus the existing system, especially in the SD processes. Material and customer master also change significantly in terms of content in the tables/fields and/or values in the fields.
The idea was to build the template from scratch in a new machine and roll-out all group affiliates, but now we are considering the possibility of making an evolutionary of the current system and try to stretch it to the processes defined in the global template.
The scenario we want to analyze is: Keeping same organizational structure in terms of Company code, CO area and Operating Concern in existing SAP client and make an evolutionary of the existing settings to the global template processes.
The doubts we are having are the following:
Changing material & customer master data: Impact in COPA
Option 1: Material master data and customer master data codes are maintained but content in the tables/fields is changed substantially, both in terms of logical content of specific fields and/or the values in the specific fields. We have following examples of changes.
Case 1: source field in material master changes logical content. E.g. Material master field MVGR1 is currently used for product series (design line) and the content changes to be the Market Segment. The product series will be moved to a classification field. At least 5 other fields are affected by this. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 2: the source field is not changed so that the logical content of the field remains but the values change, i.e. for the same concept there will be different codifications. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Case 3: Characteristics where currently the source material master field is a Z field and the derivation is via table look up and where the Z field changes to a classification field. How can you convert the existing COPA line items to ensure that attributes are aligned? Should new characteristics be created or just change the derivation logic of the characteristic?
Option 2: Material master data and customer data codes are re-created (codification of records is changed), meaning that new material and customer codes will exist and content in tables/fields is changed (as in option 1)
Case: material and customer codes are changed. How can data in terms of COPA line items be converted so that they are aligned at time of reporting?
Iu2019ve never phased a similar scenario and I fear that maintaining operating concern while changing source master data and also SD flows (we have new billing types, item categories, sales doc. Types, order reasons) may lead to inconsistencies and problems in COPA.
I would like to ask you experts if you have come across a similar scenario and if from your experience, it is something feasible to do or there are many risks involved. What can be the impact of this scenario in existing Operating Concern for both option 1 and 2 and what would be the key activities to perform to adapt the existing operating concern. What will be the impact of the needed conversions on P&L reporting?
Sorry for the long story. I hope you can help me out.
Thanks and Regards,
Eric

Hi,
First i think you will need to test if it works for new COPA documents created via billing.
If it works fine then the issue is if you wish to apply these changes to the historical data already posted.
Normally there are transactions like KE4S where you can repost the billing document to COPA
However this may not be viable for bulk postings
You can perform realignment (KEND) but this only works at the PA segment level (table CE4XXXX)

Workflow keying off changes in the customer master

I have created a workflow that triggers off of changes to a particular field in the customer master.
Everything works great.. However, users are requesting to see the old value as well as the newly changed value.
The event container doesn't seem to hold the previous changed value, only the new one.
It does have have the object key and the event time and date.The only option I see is to have my custom method go back and read the change doc table (cdhdr & cdpos) in and around the event time for the object key ( kna1) to retrieve the old value.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Hi,
The address data is always saved with the dates (look in table adrc). SO maybe you can retrack the original address.
Why do you print again an invoice. And if you do i think it is alright when it is sent to the current address and not to the old address.

Maintain Change Pointer for Customer Master?(change in Master data)

Hello everyone,
i want to capture change in master data .whenever a change happen to required field in customer master an idoc should be create for that and the entry should e made in table CDHDR and CDPOS.
Please tell me the entire process how can i achieve this .

Hi,
Tables / Functions:
The change pointers are stored in tables BDCP and BDCPS.
With release ECC 6.0 SAP delivered a new table BDCP2 for increased performance. Which table shall be used is defined in transaction BD50 (see below). There is a function to migrate “old” change pointers to the new table.
The function group BD01 contains function modules for reading and updating the new change pointers in table BDCP2.
BDCP
Change pointer
BDCP2
Aggregated Change Pointers (BDCP, BDCPS)
BDCPS
Change pointer: Status
Prerequisites:
There has to exist a Change Document Object (CDO) for the SAP-object we change. For standard objects like material masters, vendors or customers these objects already exist. For own business objects we have to define a change document object with transaction SCDO .
In the corresponding data element for the database field the flag „Change document“ has to be active. check the details in the transaction
The usage of change pointers has to be actived generally for the system
Transaction BD61

Invoice SAP SCRIPT is not printing Customer master text.

I was given a SD-invoice# XXXXXXXXX, which has problem with in it's SAP SCRIPT --> is the text is taken from "customer master data head office text" is not printed on the SCRIPT out put.
1). What I don't understand by going to /nvf03 --> by giving invoice number , then how can I view the script output ?
The text is supposed to print in footer ...however the coding inthe FOOTER window is
/: INCLUDE 'Z_FOOTER_SO_4700_INV' OBJECT TEXT ID ADRS LANGUAGE 'IT'
So, do I need to add coing for text of customer master data ?
Any idea about text and field name ?
THANKS IN ADVANCE.

Hello,
To see the output go to /VF03, enter the billing document number but don't press enter. Go to Billing Document in the menu bar, Issue Output to, select a line and do a print preview (if there's nothing there, the doc hasn't been printed before).
To print the text, ask somebody to navigate to where it is in SAP. Double click on it, choose Got -> Header. This will give you all the information you need for the INCLUDE.
The INCLUDE statement you have is for a standard text (trans: SO), not the "customer master data head office text".

Ship-to address changes on customer master not updating orders

We have recently noticed that ship-to address changes on the customer master made with XD02 no longer show up on existing standard orders. Similar changes to the sold-to addresses do show up but no tthe ship-to addresses. Does anyone know how we can resolve this problem?

hi jeff,
the adresses of a partner is
- with reference to the master-data ( if unchanges in the Order )
- of copied in the order and then changed and saved onlyy for the order.
in the first case, a change of the main data will effect a change in the order.
in the second case, the change of the main data will not change the order, data - they are separate.
you can see this in se16 / table vbpa.
look at the adressnumber.
Adressnumbers of 9++++ are of the 2nd - manual type.
I guess, in the ship to partner, there is done a manual change in the order.
in solt to data normally you don't need such a change. therfor the sold-to partner will get the changes of masterdata -- the ship to partner has manual adress of the orden.

Regarding Text in Customer Master

Dear All,
How does text maintained in the customer master gets copied in the sales document.What are the configuration settings one shoul maintain for the same.
Regards
Atul

In VOTXN you have to do the following
- Text object customer, press bullet Sales & Distribution
- Press button text types.
- You see that you can create a text ID for object KNVV, create one.
- Go back and press button change, you are now in the text det. procedure for customer
- If there is no procedure, create one.
- You have to assign your procedure to a group (eg. sold to party, ship to etc.)
- Now you have to go into the text id's in the textprocedure and add your newly created object
- When you brach to your customer, you will see your object.
- In VOTXN again, you have to create also a text determination for your sales document.
- You have to create a new text id for what you want to see in your sales document, so follow the steps like for the customer master, but now you make a text object of type VBBK
- Next, you have to branch to the bullet sales and distribution header - change.
- If there is no text determination available, you have to create a text procedure and add the text id with VBBK in this procedure.
- Now to determine that you have to copy the text from the customer master to the sales document header, you need to create an access sequence. Make one and branch to accesssequence for text id's.
- Add in this acces sequence your newly created text ID (type KNVV)
- Go back to the text ID's in Textprocedure and add the accessequence for your ID.
- You can influence your behaviour (mandatory or that a popup is shown during sales order entering)
- Last thing assign your created procedure to the sales document type you want this to work for.
Hope this helps.

Text copy from customer master to Sales order and invoice

Dear friends,
when i maintain the text in the customer master ther needs to copy to sales order and from sales order to invoice.
Can you please guide me how to do this config
Thanks
Raju.

Dear Raju,
First you need to do the Text determination for all areas(i.e Customer Sales and distribution,Sales order header,delivery header and billing header) through VOTXN transaction.
-->Create the Customer text ID under Object KNVV
Maintain the text for Text ID in the customer master >sales area data>Extras-> Text
To copy the customer text to the sales order you need to keep KNVV table as Text object in the sales order text access sequence for the text ID.
If you want to copy the sales order header text to the invoice header first you need to copy the sales order header text to the delivery header from delivery you can copy to invoice.
When you want to copy the Text from Sales order to delivery the Access sequence will place a role
If you want to copy the sales order text to the delivery document The Text Object should be VBBK in the delivery Header Text determination access sequence for that Text ID
Again you can copy the text from delivery to Billing document through checking the Delivery Text field in the billing document detail screen (Top most bottom of the screen).
Go to VOFA transaction select your billing document type then go in to the details here you can find the Delivery Text field you just check that check box.
Now system will copy the sales order header text to the delivery header then it will copy to the invoice header.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Customer Master Text object extract

Hi Guys,
I am working migration of Customer master data from 3.1i systems to ECC 6.0 systems. So can you please help how i can extract and migrate the Text objects for the Customer master which is maintained in the tables STXH and STXL.
Regards,
Vinnie

hi,
Each text is maintained in Text id's, so you can ask your abaper to pick up the date from that text id and store it in a Ztable, then copy or import the same in ECC6.0 version and update at customer level.

Text Data Value of the Customer Master

Dear All,
I have created a new text types for the customer as Z001 and Z004.
But now i want to create report with the customer and value maintain in those text fields. I'm little confuse how take the values. I know i have to go to the table STXH but i cant see the text value which i have entered under the text field.
Please help me to solve the above.
Thank U
Yasanga

Dear Yasanga,
As suggested by SAP2000, the usual method to read text is by using the function module 'read_text'
you have to give the text id/ object/ language etc and system will give the text assigned to the customer master.
If there is any trouble, please revert back.
Thanks & Regards,
Hegal K Charles

Change documents for created for Customer Master

An existing program makes changes to the Customer master table KNA1. The changes are made at the table level using the UPDATE command. Since the changes are being made at table level, the change documents are not created.
I need to create IDocs for all changes. So the question is, how to create change documents for changes to the particular fields being UPDATEd in the report program.
I understand that a BDC program on XD01 screen should have been the best way for this, but I'm here to break-fix and trying to identify solutions with least development effort.

Hi ganadeep,
When an application makes any changes to an object it wrties change documents which are stored in the table CDHDR and CDPOS for each change made.
BDCP table holds the change pointers which point to the change documents in the CDHDR table.
