Trading Partner issue in ECC

I have just activated the trading partner in ECC vendor/customer master on 1.09.08, thus all posting before this date was posted without trading partner information.
In BCS, I plan to load balance as at 31.8.08 using flexible upload as opening balance with all the "correct" trading partner information breakdown and subsequently, period movement will be extracted from ECC.
However, I notice that in ECC, when we make payment to open item created before 1.9.08 (document without trading partner), system will not populate the trading partner information, instead the trading partner information in original line (i.e. blank) will be posted.
I think this will create a problem, as I alrady uploaded the inter company balance with correct breakdown, but now period movement will be posted without trading partner, thus my balance in BCS will not be correct.
Anyone face the same issue before? Appreciate you can share with me how to overcome this issue, thanks.
Regards.

This is not an uncommon problem. A few ways to address this are: correction posting in ECC, or correction posting in BCS.
In ECC a posting to move amounts from blank/null trading partner to actual trading partner is one solution. However this is not always possible when the accounts are reconciliation accounts.
In the case of reconciliation accounts it may be better to post the correction in BCS at posting level 10.
Another way to address this is to change the breakdown for these accounts to require trading partner and if blank default is used. Then the correcting entries are from default trading partner to the true trading partner in BCS.

ZBA in EBS - Trading partner issue

Hi SAP gurus
Can anyone help me with how you folks set up populating the trading partner field for ZBA postings in EBS?
I read in a lot of places & here are the pointers I already have.
- We can fill the trading partner field in GL master data assuming we have one GL account for each partner company code (will not work for us as we do not intend to have one GL per company partner)
- We can use BADI to fill up trading partner for the specific document type (dont know what other parameters I have to pick correct trading partner)
- We can use substitution rule for the doc type (dont know what other parameters I have to pick correct trading partner)
- use search string to fill target field (but I do not see Trading partner as target field there)

Solved this issue using the following thread.

How to create Trading partner in 4.6c

Hi,
Can you please let me know how to create Trading partner in SAP 4.6c. Please let me know the difference in creation of Trading partner in sap ECC 6.0
Thanks,
RajaGopal

Hi ,
In order to identify Inter Company transactions Trading partner field is used. You need to define all the Group Companies as company in SAP and all the defined Companies will be available for selection in Trading partner field.
The same can be done via
SAP IMG > Enterprise Structure > Definition > Financial Accounting > Define Company
Hope it helps

Issue with the field (Trading Partner) in the BW report

The Info Object 0PCOMPANY (Trading Partner) is having a reference char 0COMPANY in the BW system so the data for the field Trading partner text will be pulled from 0COMPANY_TEXT data source.
I have checked in the info object 0PCOMPANY in the tab master data / Text under text table properties it has checked in the medium length text exists.
Even i have checked with R/3 consultants and found the data for all of trading partners but i am not clear where i have to investigate on this issue.
Now the values for the field Trading Partner were not displayed in the report i have checked the properties of the field and found display as Standard: key and text.
Any help will be appreciated in advance.
Thanks
Ganni

Hi,
set the propety "display" to medium text for this charateristic either in the BEx report itself either in the query definition.
Ensure that the text are well loaded (run tran RSDMD with this IObj in norder to display master data)
Only having meduim texts will prevent you to display "key and texts" in reports.
You could enhance your IObj and enable short/long texts as well; in the transfer rules just load the medium text in short (truncate its length to 20) as well as in the long text.
hope this helps...

Issue with trading partner

Hi ,
I have a issue with trading partner,
While clearing the bank clearing account with bank main account user has got the below error
"Consolidated companies ' ' are different"
The issue is because u201CTrading Partneru201D, document number xxxx has the trading partner.
I have given the below solution to client,
Proposed solution:
Reverse the payment & invoice documents
Edit the vendor master data (Remove the trading partner from vendor master data)
Re-post the invoice
Do the payment document
Now client does not want to revere the document, do we have any other way to do this?
Regards,
Sridhar

Hi Sridhar,
if you make wrong entry in VBUND, it is necessary to REVERSE the document first and re-post with the correct VBUND information. BSEG-VBUND is one of the important organizational fields which should be managed in the same manner as company code, business area etc. These organizational fields cannot/should not be changed.
Please refer to note 4152, which provides valuable information on why
the error F5080 arises in your system.
Also please consider the following points:
There is also another note, 109925, which describes in detail the
possibility to transfer, into all the line items, the trading partner.
Use
o If you want the trading partner to be transferred to all line items,
do NOT set this indicator.
The System behaviour is the following one:
1) Both indicators switched OFF:
If a trading partner is maintained in G/L, vendor or customer master
record, VBUND is copied to all document lines. VBUND is unique
in FI-document.
2) Indicator "Multiple companies" switched ON and indicator
"Enter trading partner" switched OFF:
The company ID (= trading partner) is not inherited to other items for
document types that allow cross-company postings.
3) Indicator "Multiple companies" switched ON and indicator
"Enter trading partner" switched ON:
You can enter a trading partner when posting to a G/L account and in
the G/L master record, no trading partner is stored.
In this case, the company ID specified manually is entered in all
line items that not yet received a company code from the customer
or vendor master record.
Kind Regards,
Mateus

Unable to update Partner Unit in Eccs with Trading Partner from FI

Hi,
I had removed the Breakdown category from the FS item Master (CX14) for a reco Acct by mistake .Now when i update the master table in CX14 with the same Break down Category(0110 - Partner Unit (break down Type-4) + Translation Currency (break down type -2)) the sytem than gives a pop up window showing the "Report for Transaction Check" where it asks for the Default Value of Partner Unit to be entered.Once i maintain the default value of partner unit all the document for the reco account gets updated with default Partner unit.However in FI module each of the documents posted for this account have diffrent Trading Partner due to which im unable to do the Interunit Elimination.
Kindly let me know how do i update Partner unit in all the documents in Consolidation with the trading Partner from FI module.
thanks
Karan

Once i maintain the default value of partner unit all the document for the reco account gets updated
this system behavior makes sense as you are trying to change configuration after loading transaction data. what happens if you go back to the underlying accounts and change TP back to what FI is showing? if u have to deal with a lot of documents u may want to set up a BDC session to do the mass update.

Vendor issues (trading partner and bank account)

Hi Experts,
I need your advise on the following topics
1. we were trying to update the bank details of a vendor. However, we are going to use a 20 digits bank number for russia usually its only 18 digits (RUXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX). in the customizing in OY17 the maximum bank account number length is only 18 digits. We followed sapnote 96624 (Store the first two digits in the 'Bank control key' field and then Store the remaining digits in the 'Bank account number' field) but when trying to update the IBAN (RUXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XX) we recive an error that its not correct. Is there another way to update the IBAN with a 20digit bank account number without increasing the maximum bank account number length?
2. we have updated the trading partner field in the vendor master. after the chnages were saved we immediately posted a document (more or less 1 minute interval) this field should have been automatically been populated but upon checking the document today trading partner in the document is blank. it only happened in this one document. please advise the possible cause of this inconsistency, how can it be traced and if there are possible correction.
Thanks for your inputs

Hi,
1. adjuste FM CONVERT_BANK_ACCOUNT_2_IBAN_RU to include the control field
2. reverse document & repost.

Issue with Trading Partner Identification - Files are not picked

Hi,
As per user guide and also the following note
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/integration/b2b/pdf/B2B_TN_013_EDI_VAN_Identify_TP_based_on_
ISA_GS_ID.pdf
I did uncomment the following line
#oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.identifyFromTP = Interchange | Group | Exchange
from tip.properties
But when I put a file 810 EDI file "test_canon810_11i.dat" for B2B pickup B2B errors with
"Trading partner agreement not found for the given input values: From party[NAME] "test", To party[NAME] "IKON", Business action name "810_inbound_p"; also verify agreement effectiveToDate"
But if I just rename the file to "CANON_810_11i.dat" B2B successfully processes the file.
I have setup trading partners IKON and CANON with appropriate edi interchange id but not sure why B2B is erroring in previous case and in the latter case why is it trying to identify the trading partner by filename (even though the tip.properties has been updated as mentioned earlier)
Let me know if you have any pointers in fixing above
Thanks
Sachin Sutar

Hi Sachin,
If you want to use the Interchange Sender/Receiver ID for identification, please set
oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.identifyFromTP=Interchange in the tip.properties. Uncomment the #oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.identifyFromTP = Interchange | Group | Exchange would not work.
As a result, the B2B Server defaults to identifying the Trading Partner base on the file name. You can see from the b2b.log that the From party[NAME] = test or CANON. That's because we use the first portion of the file name as the TP name.
Hope this helps,

DOCUMENT SPILTTING ON BASIS OF TRADING PARTNER(VBUND) FIELD

Dear Friends
We are on ECC 5.0, we have activated document splitting on BUSINESS AREA basis..
As for new requirement for consolidated financial reports, we have also added TRADING PARTNER(vbund) field for document splitting ..
We have define companies(trading partner), assign them to relevant customer and vendor master.
Also have tick INTER COMPANY POSTING AND TRADING PARTNER field in document types(OBA7)
in documents, with vendor and customer relevant line items trading partner is coming automatically..
for G/L related line items we want that trading partner should come automatically through document splitting ..
please note that we cant assign trading partner with G/Ls in chart of accounts as same G/Ls can be used with different different trading partner at the same time..
Kindly help me in this issue..
Regards
Expertia..

Document Splitting is too complex a concept for Substitution. If you have to just copy the Business partner to the missing lines, then you can use substitution. But if you have more than one BP in any entry and the transaction has to generate entries accordingly to balance it, substitution cannot do that.
If you are trying to split on any field other than Business Area, Profit Center and Segment, it involves a lot of work in terms of configuration and development. You have to develop your custom routine to enable splitting on your selected field (VBUND) in your case.
If I remember right, there is a consulting note which explains a brief summary of what is to be done for having Document splitting on custom fields. You can try searching Service Market place.

Error -: AIP-16012: Parameter: trading Partner is unique for object Trading

Hi Gurus,
When I go to rename the b2b server under trading partners, I receive the following error:
An error occurred when updating the trading partner.
1. Error -: AIP-16012: Parameter: trading Partner is unique for object Trading Partner Identification
2. TradingPartner.TradingPartner - Error -: AIP-11052: Writing following objects: Trading Partner Identification failed due to following constraint violation: TRADINGPARTNERIDENTIFICATION_UK. UNIQUE CONSTRAINT VIOLATION
3. PartyIdentificationType.TradingPartnerIdentificationType - Error -: AIP-11052: Writing following objects: Trading Partner Identification failed due to following constraint violation: TRADINGPARTNERIDENTIFICATION_UK. UNIQUE CONSTRAINT VIOLATION
4. Value - Error -: AIP-11052: Writing following objects: Trading Partner Identification failed due to following constraint violation: TRADINGPARTNERIDENTIFICATION_UK. UNIQUE CONSTRAINT VIOL
This occurs after I purge the b2b and even manually delete the trading partner that has the name that I require to change the server to (required for quality assurance testing). When I check the identifiers, there are two name ones (one of them is the one I am trying to change to) but I cannot delete any of them as it is grayed out.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Gerald
Edited by: Gerald M. on Nov 30, 2009 8:50 AM -addtional info

Solved the issue, I manually delete entries in b2b.tip_tradingpartneriden_aud and b2b.tip_tradingpartneridentifica_t.
Is this safe to be doing this?
Thanks

Special Ledger Summary Table trading partner filed update

Hi,
We are in SAP 4.7 version. We do have SPL past 15 years. Recently I got request to add few fields to the existing SPL table group, ex: Functional areas and Trading Partner fields.
I added these fields and I am testing now. Trading partner filed is updating in all tables for GL account document. For inter company vendor and customer invoices document trading partner field is updating only in Actual table for both lines, but not in totals table. It is updating only GL account line in Inter company Vendor invoice, but not in Inter company vendor line item trading Partner, which is populated from inter company vendor master. it is updating in GL document, CO document and SPL actual tables. I am trying to resolve this issue; Please let me know your idea.
Thanks,
Anil.B

We are going forward with getting the natural account detail data using the profit center extractor 0EC_PCA_3, and getting the ferc summary data using the general ledger extractor 0FI_GL_1. With our testing so far, this combination will provide us the data we need in BCS.
