Dear Raunak,
You can very well copy Vendor master for cross company.
In XK 01 Transaction the vendor master record from which company code you have to copy put it in Reference of initial screen ( Vendor Code & Co Code even Purchasing Organization).As soon as you goes in next screen ( After giving vendor code & Account Group) except General Data all other data gets copied.

Default Payment terms from Vendor Master not from Reference PO

Hello guys,
I am creating a PO in reference to another PO and payment terms are copied from the old PO but not updating from Vendor Master. Our payment terms are changed very frequent and our users don't want to create a new PO with too many line items so they just copy an old PO.
IS there a way to update payment terms form Vendor Master after copying an Old PO? I know this is pretty standard functionality but just trying to see if we can trick the system,
Thanks
Ronnie.

If so then convert this into an error message ensuring that the correct payment term to appear in the message, that the users need not search themselves and find out for updating the payment term
One thing is that there is no configuration available for you take care of this automatically, there has to be user exit solution.

Dear Vijay,
Please note that the folowing details as required by you.
SAP Version - 2005B
Patch level 39
When executing the query from query generator as SELECT * FROM T0.BankCountr, T0.BankCode,T0.DflAccount,T0.DflBranch FROm OCRD T0 I am getting value in Default Bank as -1 and and rest coloumn are blank.
If I create manually the House Bank Account in the target company ( which means I create the base company bank account in the target company ) then upload may be done but one have to then manually change in the vendors BP master the target company bank account which is a tedious task.
Hope you are able to give a proper solution in this regard.

Header Text copy to PO from vendor master

Dear all,
I am trying to pull data storeed in vendor master to PO for header text so that we don't need to repeat to each PO for the vendor.

B'coz it's not allowing me to add the object of vendor master
so pl guide me how i link vendor master text to PO
Regards,
Vimlesh

Hi,
In customizing ->material management -> purchasing -> purchase order -> texts for purchase orders -> define copying rules for header texts, choose "header text" and click on text linkages. Here you can enter for source object "vendor master", and for source text choose vendor master header text.
And in the FIX INDICATOR for text you have to maintain blank. then it will copy text
This will copy text from vendor master to PO header text.
Please check this and revert back if you need further details

Payment Terms not copied from Vendor Master to PO

Hello,
PO was created for a Vendor and Vendor master has the correct payment terms but they did not get copied to the PO.
Thanks
Megha

Hi Megha,
Did you maintain the payment terms in the Purchasing area of the vendor?
SAP says
Master records have separate areas for Financial Accounting, Sales, and Purchasing. You can specify different terms of payment keys in each of these areas. When you then enter a business transaction, the application in question will use the key specified in its area of the master record.
Thanks

u can find BADI's or Enhancement in Foloowing Ways.... Hope u will find one
1>First go to any transaction->iN THE menu bar SYSTEM->STATUS->Get the program name ->double click->u will go to the program attached to the tcode.Now search term will be CALL CL_EXITHANDLER.Now u will get list of BADI'S available..
2>Goto SE24->Give class name as CL_EXITHANDLER->Display->double click on get_instance mathod->Now u will go inside the method->Now put break point on the cl_exithandler.Now go to any transaction code and pass dat..U will see that it will be stopped on the break point which u set on the cl_exithandler...In the exit name u can find list of badi's attached to the tcode..
There are multiple ways of searching for BADI.
Finding BADI Using CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
Finding BADI Using SQL Trace (TCODE-ST05).
Finding BADI Using Repository Information System (TCODE- SE84).
1. Go to the Transaction, for which we want to find the BADI, take the example of Transaction VD02. Click on System->Status. Double click on the program name. Once inside the program search for CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE.
Make sure the radio button In main program is checked. A list of all the programs with call to the BADIs will be listed.
The export parameter EXIT_NAME for the method GET_INSTANCE of class CL_EXITHANDLER will have the user exit assigned to it. The changing parameter INSTANCE will have the interface assigned to it. Double click on the method to enter the source code.Definition of Instance would give you the Interface name.
2. Start transaction ST05 (Performance Analysis).
Set flag field "Buffer trace"
Remark: We need to trace also the buffer calls, because BADI database tables are buffered. (Especially view V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT)
Push the button "Activate Trace". Start transaction VA02 in a new GUI session. Go back to the Performance trace session.
Push the button "Deactivate Trace".
Push the button "Display Trace".
The popup screen "Set Restrictions for Displaying Trace" appears.
Now, filter the trace on Objects:
V_EXT_IMP
V_EXT_ACT
Push button "Multiple selections" button behind field Objects
Fill: V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT
All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BADI class interfaces. The BADI name is after the IF_EX_.
So the BADI name of IF_EX_CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA is CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA
3. Go to Maintain Transaction (TCODE- SE93).
Enter the Transaction VD02 for which you want to find BADI.
Click on the Display push buttons.
Get the Package Name. (Package VS in this case)
Go to TCode: SE84->Enhancements->Business Add-inns->Definition
Enter the Package Name and Execute.
Here you get a list of all the Enhancement BADIs for the given package MB.
The simplese way for finding BADI is
1. chooes Tcode Program & package for that Tcode.
2. Go to Tcode se18
3. Press F4
4. search by package or by program.

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

Any informations are appreciated!

Hi Katherine,

Cannot update Vendor Master (LFA1,LFB1,LFBK) in the background

Hi All,
I am workingon a requirement to update vendor master (LFA1, LFB1, LFBK etc) and after doing extensive research on SDN I came to know there are no BAPIs to update vendor and got information on function modules I can use and finally ended up using FM "Vendor_Update". I thought it is working fine because data gets updated in tables but when I checked the same vendor through transaction XK02, it still shows the old data! I even tried BDC recording with "Call Transaction" and it works in fine in foreground (I can see changes in tables and XK02) but nothing works in the background but user requires the program to run in the background. I spent last 6 hours on SDN researching and trying several suggestions but no luck yet. Can someone please share any information on any solution to resolve this?
Thanks in advance.
Ravi

Hi All,
I figured out that I have to check "Use central address management" check box which will be visible when you only record with option "Simulation in background".
Thanks.

Why I cannot input Recon. acount when I create vendor master in XK01

The field of Recon. acount is greyed out when I create vendor master in XK01. Can any expert help?
BR, Eda

Hi Eda,
in the vendor account group, the field selection is guided by three different config.
The path is IMG>Financial Accounting(New)>Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable>Vendor Accounts>Master Data-->Preparations for Creating Vendor Master Data........
1 Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Vendors)
2 Define Screen Layout per Company Code (Vendors)
3 Define Screen Layout per Activity (Vendors).
Please check at the given following 3 places, in any one of them it must be defined in the display mode.
Hope it helps.

Vendor master Archiving

Hi Experts,
         I am trying to Archive the vendor master.The process i am following is like:
1.In XK06 - Deletion flag for the vendor.
2.Then went to T-code-F58A.Then in that i maintained the Variant name as vendor_del.After that i click on maintain & give the required vendor to be Archived.
3.After that when i am trying to come out of that screen the error msg is coming as
<b>Links stored incompletely:</b>
Message no. FG166
Diagnosis
Customer/vendor links are to be taken into consideration when archiving or deleting customers or vendors. To do this, link data from the database is required which in this case has not yet been put together.
System Response
Neither archiving nor deletion was carried out.
Procedure
Run program SAPF047 in the background at a time when no customer/vendor changes are being made. This program puts together the link information in table KLPA so that links (for example, specification of an alternative payee or dunning recipient) can be taken into consideration during deletion or archiving. You can find more information in the documentation for SAPF047.
This is the MSG i am getting in Help
4.After that i tryed to link that table KLPA.But not able.
So pls guide me the exact process to do the same.
Thanks,
Das

Please read the documentation of the program SAPF058V :
Program SAPF058V allows you to automatically set archivable vendor master data for archiving. The same checks are carried out as with archiving.
Firstly a proposal list is issued. You can set and save the archive flag in this list.
If the program is started in the background, the archive flag is set automatically for all archivable data.
Archiving itself is only permitted for master records where the archiving flag is set. If a proposed archivable data record is to actually be archived, the archiving flag must be set.
You can restrict the quantity of master records to be checked by selecting
o   Vendor numbers
o   Minimum number of days in the system
o   Company codes, if FI data is to be considered
o   Purchasing organization, if MM data is to be considered
o   System criteria (see below)
Requirements
   Program modes
The program can be run in three different modes:
1. Only general data is set for archiving (A segments)
2. Only application-specific data is set for archiving (B segments)
3. General and application-specific data is set for archiving
Check whether data can be archived
Mode 1: The A segments selected must be set for archiving, and no dependencies to B segments may exist. For example, no company code data may exist for a vendor if the general data is to be archived.
Mode 2: The application-specific data must satisfy the relevant application criteria:
FI: Company code data is archivable if no special G/L figures or transaction figures and no open or cleared items exist. In addition, the archive flag must be set at company code level.
MM: Purchasing organization data is archivable if the archive flag is set at this level.
Mode 3: The A or B segments selected must be set for archiving. The A and B segments of a record are deleted if the archive flag is set in the A segment. The B segment only of a record is deleted if the archive flag is set in the B segment (in this case, the A segment is only copied to the archive). In addition, the application-specific data must also satisfy the criteria from mode 2.
The A segments are archived if all of the dependent B segments are archived and the vendor is not referred to anywhere else. If this is not the case, the A segments are copied into the archive.
For all modes: Vendors cannot be archived if they are referred to on a general/company code level from other vendors (for example, financial address or alternative payee). This check can be deselected however (use the field "FI link validation off") if you know that all the vendors that refer to the first vendor are to be archived in this or a following run.

Automatic Payment Run - Alternate Bank Account in Vendor Master

Dear Forum,
We have a situation where the users want the alternate bank accounts to be maintained in the Vendor Masters and also to select this alternate bank account while doing the automatic payment run thru F110. While we can maintain more than one bank account in the Vendor Master, but how to select the alternate one during payment run. Your help would be highly appreciated.
Regards

Hi...
As per your issue while runing APP in F110 once complete parameters
And go to Edit praposal and double click vendor and double click on line items than it will displays the one more screen there select Reallocate button there you can enter your respective bank details.
Otherwise there is a Business Transaction Event 1810. You can see the code, looks like you need to replicate the vendor bank details with link to a company code.
Note:
Assign Multiple Bank Accounts in the Vendor Master
Your SAP system provides the functionality to store and use
information from multiple vendor bank accounts in the Payment
transactions screen of the vendor master general data via
transaction FK03 (Figure 1). Figure 1 reflects the bank type
determination logic I used in the vendor master, using the
three-digit International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
currency code as the Bank type.
Figure 1 Bank details vendor master
You can use the BnkT (bank type) field in the vendor master to
enter text differentiators for identifying the vendoru2019s bank
accounts. If you leave the bank type field blank against a bank
account in the vendor master, then it serves as the default bank
if the bank type information is missing in the vendor invoice.
You may want to leave this field blank if the vendor has only
one bank account and you want the system to select that bank
account for all payments.
If the bank type is blank for multiple bank accounts, then the
system looks for the first bank account with the blank bank type
in the vendor master to use as the default. You are not required
to define the text values u2014 in my example, INR, SGD, and USD u2014
elsewhere in your SAP system. The field allows any value up to a
length of four characters. Iu2019ll demonstrate the use of bank type
with vendor invoice later on.
The system performs a check at the time of invoice creation on
the bank type value used in the vendor invoice against the bank
type values used in the vendor master. If you have not defined
the bank type value in the vendor master prior to using it in
the vendor invoice, the system shows an error message. The
system performs the check to ensure that you are using a bank
type value in the vendor invoice against which it can find a
bank account in the vendor master. Otherwise, the system cannot
determine a bank account for making payments to the vendor.
Prerequisites for Vendor Bank Selection
You need to take care of a few configuration prerequisites before
you can use vendor bank selection in the automated payment
functionality.
1. Check the Bank details check box in the payment method as
defined at the country level in transaction FBZP. This ensures
the selection of the bank details from the vendor master at the
time of the automatic payment run. If you donu2019t do this, the
system does not copy the bank details into the payment IDoc that
it creates as a result of the automated payment run (transaction
F110).
2. Make the Bank Business Partners field optional in the field
status group attached to the vendoru2019s reconciliation G/L account
by selecting the button under Opt. Entry for this field. This
field maps to the Part.bank type (partner bank type) field in
the vendor invoice. If the Bank Business Partners field is not
optional and is in a suppressed state, then you cannot input the
partner bank type field in the vendor invoice.
I hope it will helps you....

Purchase Order Text in Vendor Master

Hello. Does anyone have information on how to use the Purchase Order Text field in the vendor master? Everything I have read so far is in reference to SRM. We are currently running ECC6.0. I entered information into the PO Text field of the Purchasing screen on the vendor master, but cannot figure out how to get it to input to the PO header text. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

In customizing ->material management -> purchasing -> purchase order -> texts for purchase orders -> define copying rules for header texts, choose "header text" and click on text linkages. Here you can enter for source object "vendor master", and for source text choose vendor master header text.
This will copy text from vendor master to PO header text.

Remote Function Module for Vendor Master creation

Dear Forum Members,
There is a BAP function module BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE which calls SAP transaction XK01. Due to this, this Remote Function Module (RFM) cannot be called from a Java Application that uses SAP Java Connector.
Is there any other remote function module available in SAP for creating vendor master record so that it can be called from non-SAP development tools such as Java using SAP Java Connector or Microsoft Visual Studio .NET tools using SAP .NET Connector?
Eagerly expecting favourable reponse.
Regards,
K. Rangarajan
SAP ABAP & Java Programmer

Hi Prakash,
you can use FM 'VENDOR_INSERT' , However its not remote enabled you need to copy to Custom BAPI and make it as remote enabled.
Apart from the Vendor creation BAPI, you may need to use some other BAPI's for Adress updation and Bank details Updation.
Please refer the link for some more information [Re: Create Vendor;. The same problem is mentioned there and was solved.
