Vendor duplication

Hi all,
If we are creating a vendor with same name and address it as to give a error message that vendor already exist
How can i restrict the vendor duplication.
regards
subhash

Hi,
You can set the sensitive fields for dual control of Vendors in following path;
SPRO > Financial Accounting (New) > Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable > Vendor Accounts > Master Data > Preparations for Creating Vendor Master Data > Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control (Vendors)
And then check by creating vendors with duplicate details.

Changes in Supplier Registration Form ROS_SELF_REG

Dear all,
We need to change the BSP application in ROS_SELF_REG to add some additional fields ....
The business requirement is to avoid vendor duplication by comparing with the Tax identification number in R3 vendor master.
So we need to have a field to enter the Tax identification number ....
We have the following questions :
1. Whether there is any field already available for this purpose in the screen ?
2. What all minimum configurations to be done for this BSP to be executed in the SRM system ??
3. Which BAdi is to be implemented to have this done ?? - There should be 2 BAdis since the form has to changed when it is being loaded and also after the form is submitted ..
4. In the BSP which are the events that are necessary for this process ??
Thanks in Advance ...

Hi,
You wil have to 2 BADi's for customer fields in ROS:
ROS_BUPA_DATA_CHECK
ROS_REQ_CUF
Please read the documentation for the above 2 BADi's.
For the ROS_SELF_REG to be executed in Web,you just need to do the Internal ITS settings on the SRM server.You can execute this BSP from SICF trsacn.

DRQ : Customer / Vendor ref. no. duplication check

Hi Expert,
At present Customer / Vendor ref. no. duplication check is perform on all documents (e.g. A/R Invoice / A/P Invoice)
Where as I believe it should be performed Customer / Vendor wise.
The reason is simple, say in a new year all customer / vendor will generate their respective A/R invoice OR A/P invoice starting from 1. So verifing it accross the documents seems sence less. If is verified that whether the same Customer / Vendor 's same document is entered earlier or not then it makes sence.

How to avoid duplication of vendor name and vendor account group

Let me know the menu path for setting in SAP - controlling / avoid duplication vendor name and vendor account group in one purchasing organisation during creation of vendor / uploading mass data.

Hi,
See vendor code is unique no. But the name is not at all unique. so system allow to create duplicate record.
by giving authorization to single person only you can do it.
system discipline is actually required

Vendor Master Duplication

Hi All
I need to make a setting where I dont want the vendor master data to be created more than once, and I want the deciding field to be the VAT Registration number {Field STCEG} from the vendor master.
I have already set up a message to appear in Customizing - {Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable --> Vendor Accounts --> Master Data --> Preparations for Creating Vendor Master Data --> Change Message Control for Vendor Master Data} - but this makes a check only on the name and address fields of vendor whereas I want another field to be the key check.
However, when I try to set this field in Financial Accounting (New) --> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable --> Vendor Accounts --> Master Data --> Matchcode --> Maintain Matchcodes for Vendors - i get an error message that says 'field name is not allowed..'
Can anyone please guide me as to how I can proceed further.
Thank you

Duplication of vendor reference No

Dear Sir,
I am using SAP B1 2005B Patch 38.
For diffrent vendor their can be same vendor reference number.But after enabling the setting in the
Document settings-> purchase order->When duplicated vendor reference no.->Block option.
This blocks the document even if the vendor are different.
But Expected behaviour is,It should block only if same vendor has same reference number.
Pl provide a solution

hi jambu,
Try it using stored procedure SP_Transaction Notification with
conditions (Vendor Code,Reference No.,Posting Date) which will be unique.
or
Using Approval procedure dynamically.

Conflict in recording and filed mapping in LSMW For vendor balances

Hi,
I am trying to create an upload for vendor initial balances upload through f-02. now while creating a simple invoice i have to give input in following fields:
1) Document date
2) Document type
3) Company Code
4) Posting Date
5) Posting Key
6) Account
7) Amount
8) Base line date
9) Posting Key
10) Account
11) Amount
This is the sequence in which following transaction is posted:
Initial Balance Upload Account Dr
Vendor Cr
Now every thing is fine. after recording the system shows me the exact fields that i gave input during my recording. but when i go for further, in step 5 (Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules) I can not find fields from step 9 to 11. i further found that this is because the input fields 9 to 11 are exactly same as 5 to 7. this is why system removes them considering them to be a duplication. can anyone help me in this regards and tell me how can we create vendor balance upload through f-02?
Regards,

Solved any one facing the same problem can view the solution bellow:
I was right about system behavior. what system do is it excludes all duplication of fields. to fix this all you have to do is change the names of your fields after recording so that system can consider them to be separate fields.

Contact and Calendar Duplications, sync and more issues!

I have the iPhone 4S. I decided to activate the iCloud on my phone through to iCloud and to my Windows PC laptop. However, this caused all my calendar entries to duplicate and I had to manually delete the duplications on my Outlook Calendar so that it would not show up in any of the other devices.
I also ended up losing a lot of contacts - they all started merging!
I managed to fix all of this by painfully having to manually delete calendar entries and manually editing contact information but there is still a number of outstanding probelms:
1. Contacts - the prefix for e-mail addresses (i.e home, work etc) now all show as e-mail (rather than home, work etc). I had to manually change them all so it synced correctly in all the relevant devices (PC Laptop, iphone 4S and iCloud). However, after manually changing the e-mail prefix in my PC laptop nothing is reflecting on my 4S nor in the Cloud. iCloud is definitely working as things are syncing, it is just not dealing with all the format changes.
2. When I change/edit an existing contact or add a new contact record via my 4S - Outlook will then show that record by last name, first name (all my settings in all devices are set to First Name, Last Name). This is getting really frustrating!
3. Contacts - following on from point 1. If I make a change to an existing contact the e-mail prefix (which I had to change manually to reflect home, work etc) reverts back to showing as "e-mail" rather than stating if it's actually the contact's home or work e-mail address!!?!.
4. I also have an iPad 2 but have not set up the iCloud just yet. To avoid the duplication and loss of contacts experience all over again. Can someone give some advice on how I can ensure iCloud is set up correctly so that my iPad 2, iPhone 4S and PC Laptop all sync via the iCloud without any issues?
5. How do I carry out out a software update on my iPhone 4S given that everything syncs through the iCloud i.e. no longer have to connect my 4S to the laptop? Does this happen automatically through iCloud? I was concerned about connecting my 4S via the USB lead to my laptop which would then start a sync process and possibly duplicating everything?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Nope, Thunderbird is a client program, so is your phone. Software that tries to sync clients invariably is the cause of drama because sync is truly very difficult to program successfully and free apps from phone vendors are not quality products and almost invariably support one program and one version of that program.
So using a third party server is the correct approach. If syncing Google contact to a phone causes issues, that is more than likely the sync software used not an inherent problem with the process.
If you do not wish to use Google your more than welcome to install and run your own ldap server to sync contact to. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol

IDOC or Web service for Vendor creation/updation from XI to R/3

Hi,
We have a scenario whereby the vendor master details in R/3 need to be created/updated by the data sent from XI. We are on XI 3.0 and R/3 ECC5.
The options that we need to analyse best suiting the requirement are whether to use Web Service or whether to use IDOC.
I am not very experienced in the usage of Web Service so it will be very helpful if you could please help me with the scenario build up and how it will update the records in R/3.
From the point of view of the IDOC usage, the standard IDOC CREMAS03 is available to update the Vendor master data whereby the data is sent to XI in XML format and the data is mapped to IDOC structure and pushed out to R/3. I have checked the SDN forums and there have been discussions baout certain settings that need to be configured first to enable this IDOC scenario.
Can you please help me in analysing which option to go for and what are the pros and cons of both and the complexity of implementation and if there are any rerequisites that need to be met for either option?
Please advice.
Regards,
Archana

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestions and I personnaly favour the IDOC. However, the solution is not only looking at creating new Vendors in the R/3 system but also looking at updating the existing Vendors with the incoming data form the 3rd party.
Can the same standard IDOC create and update the vendors or do I need to look at 2 different IDOCs?
There will be a daily polling of data files via XI. The file format is going to be .txt and will be comma seperated.
Is there any way of checking in XI itself the file duplication before transferring the data to R/3 as and when the files are received?
On R/3 side, we were currently thinking of going forward with ABAP proxy which can create IDOC and then send the mail or somehow inform the business that some data was incorrect and therefore the IDOC's were not created for them or should we do it via RFC?
We will also go forward with the custom table contianing the file names received till now to check for the sequence serial number.
Please advice.

Archana

Is there any functionality to check duplicate records of vendor master

Dear all,
In creation of vendor master, there is probability of creation of same vendor twice by the user by ignorance.
Do we any check in SAP so that we cannot create the vendor if that vendor already exists.
For instance, based on vendor name can we put check so that system gives error message if that name already exists.
Kindly revert back with your suggestions.
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi,
First of all you need to have the information ,what are all the fields that needs to be checked for identifying the master data as duplicate, ie name /adress/post code/bank details.
If you put only one 'name' only for checking the master data duplication then there might be cases where the two vendors having the same name . So i would suggest take more than one field for identifacation the vendors.

Check for Duplicate Fields in Vendor Master

Dear Gurus
We have a requirement to configure checks for Duplication in Vendor Master.
regards
MS

Hi
Pls check the path
IMG > Financial Accounting> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable>Vendor Accounts> Master Data > Preprations for Creating Vendor Master Data > Change message control for Vendor Master Data
Give message numbers 144 and 145
How ever, I suggest that you do not put the message as "E". There could be a scenario, where in, the Business may have certain customers and vendors with the same name and other common fields.
Thanks & Best Regards

Duplication of Line Items in Shopping Cart

Hi,
We currently use SRM 4.0 with ECC6 and IE version 6.0.
The situation we are facing is as follows:
When the user completes shopping at the vendor's web based catalogue and hits return button, even line item that punches out from the vendor catalgue is duplicated in SRM Shopping Cart at our end. Eg: if the user has shopped for 4 units (quantity) of a particular product at the vendor's catalogue and hits the return button, he/she finds that the same product has been duplicated in the form of 2 line items of the same product with the quantity field showing 4 units in each line.
The question:
What could be causing this impasse?
thanks
Anirban Gupta

Hi
For the time being, Please de-activate all the Active Customer BADI Implementations (name starting with Y or Z using SE19 Transaction). then try repeating the process of Shopping cart ordering again.

Vendor Master replication from EBP and MM to SUS

Hi !
We would be replicating Vendors from R/3 as well as from EBP to SUS. I believe that there is certain configuration to check duplication of Vendors and also to assign a single business partner ID even if a Vendor is replicated both from EBP as well as from MM. Can anyone thro some light on this & the procedure...
Thanks

Hi,
For the Vedor Maste replication from EBP and MM to SUS,
U need to maintain the proper RFC conncection between R/3, EBP SUS and XI as a middleware.
U can transfer the Vendor by using the T.Code - BBPGETVD.
U can transfer vendor to SUS using
transaction BD14 with message type Z_CREMAS_SUSMM as
SAP suggested.
Your error due to incorrect mapping in Integration
Directory of XI.Kindly check the Interface
determination for message type Z_CREMAS_SUSMM.
Please award the points for the help.
