Vendor Catalog Numbers

Hi all,
I've noted that both my Goods Issue and Goods Receipt screens are blank in Vendor Columns (I.e. Customer/Vendor Ref. No, Customer/Vendor Name etc) and i want to query stock adjustments supplier wise.
Can this be rectified by assigning Vendor Catalog Numbers to items in the system? because at the moment we're only using ItemCodes?
And if so, whats the procedure to update the existing items with Vendor Ref. No.s and to ensure that all the new items are either automatically or manually updated? Thanks
Regards,
Henry

Hi Henry,
If you do want to query stock adjustments supplier wise, the only possible way is to set up all items with unique Vendor Catalog Numbers.  Please note, that means if you have one item with multiple Vendors, you end up with duplicate items with different codes everywhere.
It might not be a good practice for you in the long run.

  • DTW BP Catalog numbers many records

    Hi Experts,
    I have a business scenario where the client has around 500 customers and around 50 Vendors. Each vendor has its own item list with specific BP Catalog numbers and price associated with the items supplied by that vendor. In order to maintain the difference in the item code from what is referred to by the vendors and customers in particular we are using BP catalog functionality of SAP Business One. I am aware of the DTW import for the BP catalogs.
    The issue is, assuming there are around 1000 item codes supplied by different vendors, some of them may be common . If we make a BP Catalog import file for each customer for all the items in order to ease ourselves out of the effort of analysing the item codes that have different BP catalog numbers as compared to the item codes, the total records to be imported would come out to be at least 500,000  (500 X 1000). Doing a DTW import for this would take hours. Its running for 3 hours and still hasn't shown any progress bar yet where i am tring to import it from a database table rather than a CSV.
    Could someone recommend a better out of the box solution for this scenario?
    Thanks and regards

    Hi Amit..........
    While executing any query or any FMS or any Data Import SAP first checks each and every permutation  and combination whether it can be done or not. If it finds any data missing then it gives error. So in your case as it has more permutation and combination SAP will obviously take time to check the availability of each record for every performed actions.
    If you want it to be completed as much as fast it can be then you may have to develop your own utility.......
    It might be a program or some back end function....

  • Wrong vendor selection while shopping from vendors catalog

    Hi,
    Shopping cart has been created visiting vendors catalog but system created shopping cart on wrong vendor. This issue is not frequent but need to analysis/fix.
    For example, selected the items in Dell catalog but in shopping cart the vendor is CDW.
    Will appreciate your help if any one have faced such issue. We are on SRM 7.0.
    Thanks

    Hi Jayashree,
    Please check the supplier number under : Strategic Purchasing --> Business partner in purchaser log in for which you want to create the SC from catalog and assign that number of supplier to catalog item in data manager.
    this will solve your issue.
    Thanks

  • How do i check ensure that SAP checks for duplicate vendor invoice numbers?

    Hi Experts -
    How do I verify that SAP checks for duplicate vendor invoice numbers and blocks duplicate invoices from being paid?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    Pls chek the settigs by following the path
    IMG>Materials Management>Logistics Invoice Verification>Incoming Invoice>Set Check for Duplicate Invoice.
    Here you make the settings for creating a duplicate invoice check.
    Moreever, in the vendor master, you need to tick the check box for duplicate invoice check.
    I suggest you search the Forums before posting a query. There are lots of postings on this issue.
    Thanks & regards

  • Settings required for external vendor catalog

    Hi Experts,
    Please advise if i have external vedor catlog and want to use it for shopping carts. What config settings i need to do for it.
    Regards,
    Kamal

    Hi,
    You must define your catlog here in EBP
    SRM server- > master data-> Define external web services .
    You must give inbound parameters for the vendor catalog to access from ebp.
    As well as this catalog definitions must be defined in CAT attribute in PPOMA_BBP.
    Also please refere the OCI config document for further setting.
    Cheers!!

  • Update BP Catalog numbers

    I have a customer wanting to update BP Catalog numbers using DTW. I have found SAP Note 1275393 which states that this is not possible.
    Attached to the note is an SDK project which can be used to achieve this, however this is in VB6 & our current version of VB will not let us open this.
    Has anyone converted this to a later version of VB ?

    Hi Julie,
    There are some tools available to convert the old code to new one. Have you tried to find one?
    Thanks,

  • Import catalog numbers for multiple BP at the same time

    I have to import different groups of the same catalog numbers for multiple business partners. I have been looking through the DTW templates and have not found it yet. Does this functionality exist and if so where would I find it? If not what to do, enter each one by one
    thx,

    Hi,
    I just looked at the available templates... I would use the oAlternateCatNum one.

  • Deleting BP Catalog Numbers

    Hi,
    Is there a way to delete all existing BP catalog numbers at once? I mistakenly globally updated one BP's catalog to the entire BP list and now want start over from scratch. Thanks.

    Hi Bishal- I know that I can update and overwrite using DTW, but in this case i want to actually do a bulk removal, which is not possible with DTW. It is possible with SQL, but of course that is a no no from SAP.
    Hi Jitin- I know I am able to remove the BP catalogs one by one from within the B1 interface, but because I accidentally created 800+ catalogs, I'm looking for a faster way to clear all records.
    Any other ideas? Thanks a lot.

  • How to include vendor catalog number on purchase order?

    Is there a way to have the vendor catalog number print on the purchase order? Or does it have to be manually typed in each time in "Vendor mat. no." under the "Material Data" tab? Thank you!

    Hello Vanessa,
    If you are using ME21N to create a PO, the vendor material number (EKPO-IDNLF) will be determined in include LMEPOF5W:
        IF rekpo-ebelp NE space AND rekpo-idnlf NE space AND
           rekko-lifnr EQ ekko-lifnr.                           "530554
          lf_idnlf = rekpo-idnlf.
        ELSEIF aekpo-ebeln NE space AND aekpo-idnlf NE space AND
          aekko-lifnr EQ ekko-lifnr.                            "530554
          lf_idnlf = aekpo-idnlf.
        ELSEIF reban-banfn NE space AND reban-idnlf NE space AND
             ( reban-flief EQ ekko-lifnr OR                     "548217
               ( reban-flief EQ space AND
                 reban-lifnr EQ ekko-lifnr ) ).
          lf_idnlf = reban-idnlf.
        ELSEIF kekpo-ebeln NE space AND kekpo-idnlf NE space AND
          kekko-lifnr EQ ekko-lifnr.                            "530554
          LF_IDNLF = KEKPO-IDNLF.
        ELSEIF FEKPO-INFNR EQ *EINA-INFNR.
          LF_IDNLF = *EINA-IDNLF.
        ENDIF.
        CH_IDNLF = LF_IDNLF.
      ENDIF.
    As above, the vendor material number will be firstly taken from the reference doc. If there is no vendor material number found in the referece doc. system will take the data from the vendor master. Otherwise, you have to enter it manually in the PO item.
    For the question that if it can be printed,  can check whether it is defined in print form MEDRUCK ( by using transaction code SE71).

  • BP Catalog numbers and Item Codes Display

    Hello
    Is there any way that BP catalog numbers and item codes can be display together.
    Or is there any work around available.
    I have a client who wishes to use i.e view both  the item code and the BP Cat Number on their screen..,
    we create a formatted search and this worked.
    However the purchase orders which are automattically generated through another Add-on  cant use a formatted search to work.
    Thanks for your help in advance.

  • License for BP Catalog Numbers

    I have a customer who has just upgraded from version 2005A to 8.81.  One user has had the responsibility for maintaining BP Catalog numbers in the system.  She has had a CRM Sales license (she may also have had a CRM Service license, but did not have the Service license after the upgrade).  In version 8.81, she is unable to access the BP Catalog program, receiving the message that her license does not permit entry to this function.  We have tried giving her the CRM Service license in addition to CRM Sales, but it makes no difference.
    I have checked the License Comparison sheets for 2005, 2007, and 8.8.  None of them mentions the BP Catalog program at all.  Other than iupgrading the user to a Professional license, is there any way to give her access to this feature?
    Thanks,
    Marcia

    You can try Limited Logistic License as it is part of Inventory.

  • Auto PO an entire vendor catalog

    I am currently trying to convert an entire existing SAP vendor catalog to auto PO. How do I do this?  What are the steps?  What are the potential problems with making an entire catalog auto PO?
    Thanks!

    Hi Upendra
    I get you your problem.
    Now the case is that while generating the Auto PO
    The system uses following sequence for seach
    First 1) Quota Arrengement
    2) Source list
    3) Info Record
    4) Last Pur. Doc.
    As per this search strtegy system gets all the information for creating the PO
    from info record only.
    That's why the sys. is picking the price from PIR & not the one that you have put while crating GR.
    Regards
