Updating the business partner

Dear friends!!!
I am working on a problem in which i am supposed to merge the similar bp... I have the target bp in one internal table and source in another internal table i have programatically merge the data from source internal table to target internal table... now i am supposed to update the database table respect to target bp. here to update bp i can use.. bus_ei_extern structure and FM bupa_inbound_main_save... or i am supposed to lock the db tables and update them directly... would you like to tell me what will be more convinient to me.. as I have target bp in internal table and it is not type bus_ei_extern, so please tell me if i update all the db tables directly without using bus_ei_extern structure will it be give me any trouble,,,,,.... please reply me any suggestion, code, article will be greate help of mine
thanking you,,,,
regards
Naim

You should never update standard SAP table directly. Please avoid it as long as possible. If anything goes wrong in your system, SAP will not support it.
Table update is always the easiest option. But that should not be used, especially on critical master data information like BP.

Mass Update of Business Partner Data in CRM

Hi,
I would like to know how I can perform a mass update of business partner data in CRM and then have this replicated into R/3.
I have found notes 802804, 876602, 859632 but these only apply to CRM 5.0 and we are currently working on CRM 4.0. Does anyone know of anything similar which exists in CRM 4.0?
I have checked other posts and found help files links like the one below but is this only on CRM 5.0? (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/3c/9b56fae6c7424cafcdf17370399812/frameset.htm )
Has anyone used the tx. MASS in CRM?
Also our volume update levels is as high as 300,000 record and updating in CRM and replicating into R/3 through the middleware is causing performance problems.
Does anyone have any tips on the best approach for this? Many thanks.
Regards
JoJo

Mass not available in 4.0, could write your own LSMW routine but you still will create bdocs for updates so not sure how that will improve your performance.

Update of Business Partner Master Data

Greetings. I am wondering is there any way you can configure the standard system so that the analyst responsible for the business partner will receive a notfication when the business partner master data is updated in SD. Currently its linked to the customer master so any name/address changes in SD will be automatically synched in the FSCM Credit Master Data.

Hi,
This is not possible in configuration. Maybe with some abap involvement you can write a query on the change table.
That might help.

FLCU01 - Business Partner Customer (FS: BP)
2. Defined the Number assignment for Direction BP to customer
4. Customer account group and numbering is also defined.

Kindly let me know if any customizing I have missed.

Urgently, how to use the EEWB to ad new field in the business partner page

Hello All
I am working on CRM 5.0 EEWB
I am trying to add new field in the business partner page I followed the steps for creating the project and the extension but I faced some problems
1-I chose the package BBP_BUPA_MAIN BBP Business Partner General
I created two transport requests for the workbench and the customizing
2- I created an extension with EEW Bus. Object: BUPA and extension type: ADD_NEW_FIELDS
3- I got an error that <b>"Object DOMA ZBU_009XN27S is in the name range reserved for customers. The object cannot be assigned to package BBP_BUPA_MAIN, since it belongs to a different name range or namespace"</b>
I tried to change the package but the same problem occurs and if I choose a custom made business package I get a similar error but, before the wizard starts
I want to know the exact steps to create new field using the EEWB
Regards
Jacopo Francois

Hi,
Error info: "Object DOMA ZBU_009XN27S is in the name range reserved for customers. The object cannot be assigned to package BBP_BUPA_MAIN, since it belongs to a different name range or namespace"
Clearly states that you need to assign some different name to the package which is not reserved by SAP as Z### is already reserved by SAP and thus you will not be able to create the enhancement in the same.

sankar

Hi,
I imagine you would like to synchronize business partner data, which are created in backend, into SRM.
you can use Tcode BBPGETVD or BBPUPDVD or run/schedule bbp_vendor_sync (need customizing).

Regarding chossing the Business Partner Master Data

Dear All,
I have one query regarding chossing the Business Partner Master Data. Let take an exapmle
suppose 2 sales person are making the sales Quotation and every sales Persons only making the quotaion
for the specified leads or customers.Suppose Sales Person 'A' makes the quotaiton for 5 Leads and Sales
Person 'B' makes the quotation for the different 5 persons.Now i want when i Login into sales person 'A' Login
and choose the Business Partner by pressing tab in sales quotation window , then that Sales Person 'A' can
see only the Specified BP list which are belonging to his region.
Thanks All.

The access to Item Master and BP Master cannot be restricted to Users through Authorization. This is a known limitation of SBO.
You can try this by using SDK.
You can use Data Ownership Authorization, which means the marketing documents created by Sales Person 'A' will not be viewed by Sales Person 'B'
Refer this thread for details
[Customer master restriction in Marketing document.........;
