Vendor Master Creation through IDoc with Multiple Company Codes

I am trying to create vendor masters sent from a 3rd party into SAP using CREMAS05 IDoc. I have the requirement that the vendor should be created in each of 3 company codes and the vendor number is internally assigned in SAP.
I create my IDoc with the general data E1LFA1M and multiple E1LFB1M & E1LFB5M Children. When I post the IDoc using IDOC_INPUT_CREMAS which uses Call Transaction, the vendor gets created for the first company code, but the IDoc errors on the vendor extension XK01 for the next company code with the error: "Fill all required fields SAPMF02K 0111 ADDR1_DATA-NAME1".
In debugging through this, it appears that the vendor number that gets created in the first XK01 transaction does not get passed into the data for the second XK01 call and SAP tries to create a new vendor instead of extending the newly created one.
If I force the value in during debug after the initial call transaction into the variable h_lifnr, it works fine (Vendor created with multiple company codes.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I cannot give you exact solution, but can guess why this is happening, below is what I believe.
I think Synchronous update is not happening in call transaction, second transaction is getting processed before the first one is saved, debugging it works fine, because we give system enough time to save while processing.
Generally in call transaction we have MODE, if we pass S - then synchronous update happens, in your case, you need to find the way to incorporate this.
Hope it helps.

Vendor master data - Single material with multiple price

Hi Gurus,
Per our set-up, we have 1 purchasing organization to handle the central procurement function for purchases to various countries/destination. As such, whenever we seek for quotation from a single vendor, the vendor will provide their price for a single/same material, e.g. ABC, with various price by locations. for example:
1. Material: ABC
- Price: $83 (EXW)
- Price: $85 (FOB, Tianjin)
- Price: $100 (CFR Port Klang)
- Price: $120 (CFR Mumbai)
- Price: $160 (CFR Jabel Ali)
Is there a way I can use any of the vendor master records (e.g. outline agreement / info records) to capture a single material having multiple price? At the same time, this infomation is available during our PO creation (e.g. via ME57).
Thanks in advance.

Dear
For Condition Type PB00, SAP has some standard requirements in Pricing Schema.For one material different location one requirement is there.But as per your requirements you need to put logic through ABAP and it will definetely work.The exact requiremnt i'm not remembering.
Just go through all the requiremnt and respect to PB00, put the requiremnt and put the logic.
Revert me for the result.
Thanks & Regards

ERROR IN CUSTOMER MASTER CREATION -THROUGH IDOC.

We are facing issue while creating customer through idoc. System is giving error "No batch input data for screen SAPLID_TAXNUM 1000 "
On analyzing this error - we are able to find out that someone has enabled some duplicity check or message control on filed of tax number 1.In this filed we are storing some other legacy information which is not unique to each customer so system is poping up some screen which shows that this information already exist for other customers . Due to this customers are not getting created.
We have checked the message control setting bur there was no such message control.
Now we are not able to figure it that who has done this change and how. Further how this can be resolved.
Pls help.

Hai Jobi Thottungal,
Since you can create a Customer with Account type 001, please check what is the PARTNER TYPE assigned.
Now, GO TO
IMG Sales and DistributionMaster DataBusiness PartnersCustomersCustomer Hierarchy
Set Up Partner Determination for Customer Master
Partner Determination Procedure Assignment
Assign the Partner procedure to your Account group
So at the time of creation of Customer master with your Account group, the partner function will get created automatically.

One report, One Source System with multiple Company Codes -- Authorization

Hello Guys
We have 2 DEV source systems for our BI implementation right now. one for US (CCode - 406) an one UK(CCode - 301).
We have already completed the implementation for UK with 38 reports.
we are right now moving the US implementation.
when we move to QAS we are going to have one Source system with both US and UK data.
so when we move to QAS, the US clients wants to view the reports developed in UK implementation with their own data.
How can we do that. since some reports doesn't have company code to restrict the data to respective users.
Thanks and Kind regards,
shekar.

Hi

If your in BI7 , you have analysis authorization concept

Issues with Multiple Company Codes

Our organization consists of 42 legal entities which all have their own company code in SAP and their own organizational structure. An example of how our jobs and positions are set up in SAP is provided below.
Job: Production Supervisor
Position: 0140 Production Supervisor (includes company code before position)
We may have 200 Production Supervisors company wide each with their own position number but they are tied to only one job number for Production Supervisor.
We are considering changing how the jobs and positions are set up in SAP so that instead of Production Supervisor the job would be Supervisor III and the position would remain the same. However, there may be other supervisor positions that will also be included in the Supervisor III job. We are afraid this may cause issues in the future if we implement other areas of the HCM module including compensation management, succession planning, MSS and ESS. Could we create a reporting structure seperate from the org structure so that executives at the corporate office would have access to information on all employees in their area of expertise company wide? Any suggestions you have would be greatly appreciated.

Vendor Master with Multiple Bank account in Multiple Company Codes

Dear Team,
We have multiple companies in our SAP environment, wherein a single vendor is extended to multiple Company Codes (Cocds). If we change the bank account in the vendor master, it is applicable to all the Cocds in which vendor is extended. Few vendors want payment in different bank accounts.
How do we address this issue?
Kindly guide.
Regards
James

Hi,
Two options without any enhancement:-
1. Use "Partner Bank Type" in Vendor Master's Payment Transaction View where you maintain vendor bank account. Each of the bank account should be assigned to unique Partner Bank Type
- Based on this setup, at time of invoice posting, user could choose which vendor bank type and base on the selection, the selected bank will be selected upon payment.
- You could also explore the option of using substitution to substitute the partner bank type upon posting if the same cocd always using the same vendor bank
2. A much simpler option, upon payment proposal - user actually could select which vendor bank they wanted to use if you've multiple vendor in the vendor master.
Thanks,

How to upload multiple company codes data for single vendor by LSMW Idoc

Hi ,

uploading data by LSMW Idoc method
In source file we have two company codes data for single vendor.

But its not creating its showing error.
How to handle this?
Thanks in Advance.

have you ever see this docu:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/1a/178ac72d3011d3bc3500105a6588b2/content.htm
You can use the recording function to create a new object (or a new "import method") if neither a standard batch input program nor a standard direct input program nor the BAPI/IDoc method is available for a data object.
Recordings are static, thats why you cannot do such flexible things like multiple company codes at the same time.
But with IDOC method it is certainly possible, I have done it several times already.
Unfortunatly the creator of this thread did not say what error he got with the IDOC method. Maybe he will add this. Otherwise I dont think that anybody can help

Regarding vendor master creation using xk01,fk01,mk01.

hi
i have created vendor master using xk01.what is the diffeerence between creation of vendor master using xk01 and FK01,MK01.

Hi
You can split vendor master data into two parts - purchasing (MK01) and accounting (FK01).
Purchasing veiw (MK01) is important if you want to create purchase documents like PO on vendor. This veiw is created for purchase organization with bank details and partner functions.
Accounting view (FK01) is important for finance people to post invoice and pay to vendor. This view is created for company code. The terms of payment which purchase dept specifies will be entered in accounting view again and bank details entered by purchasing people will be confirmed by accounting team.
You can create collectively these two views in XK01.
Thanks

Hi,
Please check the following standard rules:
1. If the P Org is assigned to a company code, then that Porg is responsible for all the plants assignesd to that company code only provided Plant - Porg assignment is done. This is company code specific
2. If the P Org is not assigned to a company code, At the time of vendor master creation, system will ask for the company code and you have enter the same assignesd to that company code provided Plant - Porg assignment is done for the Porg you are working with. This is cross company P .Org.
3. Assignment of POrg with Plant is must.

Unable to make Postal code as required field in Vendor master creation

Hi,
We have a requirement of making Postal code (POST_CODE1) field under street address of new vendor master creation/change as a required field.
In the configuration settings of vendor account group (OBD3), SAP provided Postal code City combined as only one field.
Even after making the Postal code&City field as required in the configuration of a particular Vendor group (OBD3), the system is allowing to create new vendor master under that particular group with out the input of Postal code.
The system only making the city (CITY1) as required filed but not the Postal code (POST_CODE1) even after setting Postal code&City field as required in OBD3.
Could you please provide the activities to be performed apart from the above so as to make Postal code as required filed at the time of the vendor master creation/change
Regards
Mani Prasad

Yes, it is country specific. It will affect in vendor masters as well Customer masters.
You have two options now :
Create a Transaction variant using SHD0 and Make Postal code field as required and create a custom transaction code in SE93 (Transaction with Variant (Variant transaction) and assign here and save. Your requirement will be fulfilled.
Else you can go for Enhancement using EXIT_SAPMF02K_001 Vendors: User Exit for Checks prior to Saving
The following user exits exist for vendor master records:
o Check entered data before saving
Please refer to the interface description of the function module to see which data is available.
If we found any other solution we will let you know the same.

We have an issue with FK01 vendor master creation.
The vendor Name field in FK01 has length of 40 char, however in Vendor Master table LFA1 field Name1 has length 35 char.

Guyz any idea how we can handle this scenerio.
Need your help.

The issue is with FK01, when u create vendor in FK01, If you use a name of 40 char length in the NAME field.
After creating the vendor if you check the vendor in LFA1 table you'll find the name truncated to 35 char length in the NAME1 field.
How can we solve this problem. Is there any BADI/User exit available to fix it.
Thanks
