Validation of vendor number vs. Accounting Group

Hello Experts,
We are using ESO 5.1 with integration package, connected to an ERP 5.0 backend system.
I've confirmed an issue when creating a vendor in ESO for publishing to ERP, as E-Sourcing does not validate the vendor number the user is assigning. System only checks if the Accounting group has a internal or external numbering.
Has anyone encontered this issue before? Any standard solutions for this?
If so, I'll appreciate if you can share how this issue was solved. Validation script? If so, can anybody share or give me some pointers on how to create it?
Thanks!
Regards,
GG

I can answer by words of Axel Angeli - top level SAP R/3 consultant and R/3 cross-application development coach, the author of classic book "SAP R/3 Guide to EDI, ALE and Interfaces":
"SAP R/3 delivers a serious of predefined EDI programs. Many project administrators see them as standards which should not be manipulated or modified. The truth is, that these IDoc processing functions are recommendations and example routines, which can be replaced by own routines in customizing."
and
"SAP R/3 is delivered with a series of predefined IDoc types and corresponding handler function modules.
Some of the handler programs have been designed with user-exits where a developer can implement some data post-processing or add additional information to an IDoc.
You must always see those programs as examples for IDoc handling. If the programs already do what you want, it is just fine. But you should never stick to those programs too long, if you need different data to be sent."
So now you can feel free to customize
Regards,
Maxim.

Vendors report by account group

I have a list of vendors in an spreadsheet. I want to generate a report with the vendor number, credit, debit, balance and the account group. I tried the SAP defined reports like ( S_ALR_87012082) i can get the vendor, credit, debit, but not the account group. I can select the account group option in the dyanamic selection but not in the report layout
Can any one suggest any other transaction where i can generate the desired report
Thanks in advance

Extend vendor with multiple account group

Hi,
I have a query.
I have three account group say Domestic, Import, Service.
I want to create vendors say ABC only in these three account group(Means ABC in domestic, ABC in import, ABC in Service)
How to maintain this? I have used same number range for these account groups.
Can you throw some light on this?
Thanks & Regards,
Piyush

Hi,
You will not get teh same number from all the 3 account groups.
You can create one vendor ABC using one account group, with all the correct entries.Now lets say vendor 12 is created
DO the same for the second acct group also. Now maintain the same address, country, telephone etc.... and related entries and save it. Now vendor 13 will be created. Now for both vendors, you can provide teh same reconciliation account.
Similarly do for the 3rd acct group.
Now, all the three vendors will be reconciled using one reconciliation account and this will solve your problem.
Otherwise, it is not possible to have 3vendors in 3account groups with same number

How to use copy default values for material from vendor master in Account Group

Dear all:
In define AccountGroup for vendor ,there is a field named DURAS which means default values,who can tell me how to use it?
Any informations are appreciated!

Hi Katherine,
I have tried using default value as B in the customizing
If i maintain default values in the vendor master record, it will automatically adopt in the purchase info record.
Here i tried using sales person & telephone no field in vendor master record & it automatically adopts to purchase info record.
Region sales person and telephone no i have maintained in vendor master record, it automatically fetches to info record for the particular account group. I am not sure if there is any relation between vendor master and material master record.

Vendor Number Range relation with account group.

Dear All,
I have one more doubt. Kindly clarify.
I know that account group and vendor number range and linked with each other. Number range can be assigned to one or many account groups. Let's consider a case where 3 Account groups (assume X,Y & Z) have one common number range. When we create a vendor, in an account group (for example, X) vendor code assigned internally is 100000.
Subsequently if we create another vendor in the account group Y, will the vendor code assigned intenally be, "100001", considering intervals to be of 1 or any other number falling in the number range assigned to this account group?
Does there lie any rule or method which assign the code in this manner or any other...?
EnjoySAP,
Thanks

Hi,
When a vendor master record is created, a unique number identifying the master record is assigned. The number comes from the number range provided for the account group.
Internal number assignment
Here the SAP R/3 System automatically assigns a consecutive number from the number range defined, irrespective of any number of account groups attached to which the number range has been assigned.

A huge number of vendor account group

Hi Experts,
Due to our reporting requirement, we need to have huge no of account groups. Currently the count is coming close to 44 account groups.
Please let us know whether that will create any issue in the system etc.
Regards,
Bhavesh

Hi,
You can define as number of account group as you wish. The only drawback I see is that it will just create an overhead in terms of maintenance. User need to be careful in selecting account group while creating the new account.
However this will help a lot for various reporting purposes.

Account Group and Vendor

I created account group and assgn number and tried to creat Vendor, but system is asking for partner number.
thanks

Hi Shahid
The problem you are encountering could be for teh fact that the number range assigned to the account group is external and hence the system is prompting to assign a partner number
The account group is a classifying feature within vendor master records
The account group determines:
o the number interval for the account number of the vendor,
o whether the number is assigned by the user or by the system,

Vendor search by matchcode - account group authorisation

We have various vendor account groups including one for paying employee expenses. We are finding that users with access to vendor matchcode search can see vendors for all account groups (including employees) listed in the search even though we have restricted them by authorisation object F_LFA1_GRP to specific groups. Whilst they are not permitted to view full details of the employee the list does show address details. Does anyone know how we can restrict this?

HI,
most of the applications have no authorization checks implemented in their matchcode search....
Please refer as example to [SAP Note 639188|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/639188]
I hope, this information helps...

Mass updation of Vendor account group

Dear FICO gurus
Found XK07 -Individual processing to change Vendor account group, but issue is i need to change for more than 2500 vendors. Can any one suggest the alternative t.code as solution (apart from LSMW/BDC).
Thanks in advance
Deepak

Hi,
You can use transaction MASS, enter LFA1, select table LFA1. Select the account group field, enter the value of the account group you want to change and execute. This will bring up a list of all vendors with that account group. Enter the new vendor account group and execute. All vendors with the old account group will be updated with the new vendor account group. However, you must have all fields settings the same on both account groups for this to work.
