Updating the customer number in AR

We are looking to change the format of our customer number in Receivables. Is there an easy way of doing this. We've tried using the Customer Interface procedure which does seem to run without error, however doesn't actually change the number (dispite reporting that x records have been updated).
Another option that has been explored is Customer Merge - this seems to be a manual process and with have over 9000 customers
We are using Oracle Financials 11i, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, I had encountered a similar situation. Customers created as Organizations were to be converted into persons. Yes, Customer merge is the option we used. WIth Little effort, our migration program was a success. In your case since you ae changing the numbering, you might consider disabling the automatic customer numbering option in Receivables.

Hi,
Can you post the wsdl URL. It would be of great help if we could have a look at the wsdl schema. Not all schemas are supported at the moment and hence the error. You can have a look at the limitations section in the documentation guide.

Updating the Customer & Material Tax Classification via LSMW only

We need to update the Customer and Material Tax Classification via LSMW only, in such a way that on the updation of the Tax classifications the Customer Master and the Material Master should be updated automatically.
Please let me know if anyone has done the same also it would be really helpful if you can provide me the details.
Regards,
Arindam

Hi,
It's not clear your question to me.
Do you want to update the Tax classification in the customer master & Material master?
I did same, but with 2 different LSMW"s as there is not link between customer master & Material master.
To update customer tax classification -
In that you have to feed relevant customer numbers with sales areas & relevant tax classification for one LSMW.
To update Material tax classification -
In that you have to feed relevant material numbers with sales areas & relevant tax classification for different LSMW.
Best regards,

Any BAPI or FM to use to update the Customer Address with change log?

Hi, does anyone have used any BAPI or FM that will update the customer address (Central Address management fields) and the change will be logged in the change history of customer master? I have tried several FM that can update the fields but none of the change will show up in the change history of the customer master.
So far, I have tried the following FM:
ADDR_MAINTAIN_COMPLETE
ADDR_UPDATE
BDC is not acceptable due to high volume of data. However, the change log is also required.
Please share any advice.
Thank you,

Hi Minami,
for chenge address use FM : BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_CHANGE       (SAP BP, BAPI: Change Address)
otherwise check with below FM ,for address related information
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESSES_GET              SAP BP, BAPI: Determine All Addresses
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_ADD                   SAP BP, BAPI: Add Address
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_CHANGE                 SAP BP, BAPI: Change Address
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_GETDETAIL             SAP BP, BAPI: Read Address
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_GET_NUMBERS    SAP BP, BAPI: Read Address Numbers
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE                    SAP BP, BAPI: Delete Address

No change log is created when updating the customer master using LSMW

Hi Gurus,
I am a bit confused on why no change log is created when I use the LSMW to update the customer master. What I update is the customer partner of the customers. For example I have a sold-to 1000 then a customer representative (Z3) 50001, now when I use the LSMW to change the customer representative to 50002 it is correctly updated however no change log is found if you check for the changes on that specific customer. This is a bother for me since I want to send all the customer changes through IDOC and the processing needs to access the change log.
Thank you.

Hello,
What process are you using object, BAPI, etc.

How can i update the phone number associated with my iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air?

I recently moved to the US from Canada and have a new US #. I have updated the phone number on my apple ID but the iMessage and FaceTime on my macbook air are still connected to my old Canadian phone number. How can I update this? Thanks so much!

Associate your mobile number with your Apple ID, if you haven't already done so.
Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
          Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
          Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
          Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test.

Tracing the Customer Number For deleted parked document

Hi,
I have wrongly deleted the park document . My client wants to know the customer Number of the deleted park document. Where can I fetch this details from.
I found that the Accounting document Number is stored in table BKPF with a deletion flag Can u please suggest which table the deleted customer no. for the park document is stored
Thanks in advance
Ratna & Susan

Hi Rathna
Oneway to find out the customer number is, thro transaction FBL5N, select all customer open items (with key date before the parked document was deleted) and select the noted items also.
You will be able to see the document.
Thanks
