Hi,
First check which account group you have assign to your vendor for this disaply vendor in XK02 then go to Extras > Administrative date check the account group, then come to transaction OMSG seelct your account group which is assign to vendor then clcik on details after that on new screen clcik on purchasing data under field status then in select group clcik on Add. Purchasing Data, then for plant select radio button as optional entry and then after saving check again with XK02.

Vendor Master Fields to be considered for Centralization in SAP MDM

Hello Experts,
In my present assignment, we have 3 different ECC systems each for three different businesses. Now the objective is to consolidate, Harmonize and centralize the Vendor Master for all these standalone ECC systems in SAP MDM.
So multiple discussions are going on the which Vendor Master fields to be kept as Global fields and which ones as local in Central Vendor Repository in SAP MDM. The debate is whether should we keep "Vendor Account group" as Global field or as Local field in MDM.
The debate is each inidividual business unit has defined different account groups for the same vendor in their respective systems.
The question is : What is the best practice-- Should we keep Vendor account group as main table field and define Vendors with one unique account groups OR we maintain the account group in qualified table each pointing to different business unit.
Your inputs are highly appreciated

Hi Manoj
The debate is each inidividual business unit has defined different account groups for the same vendor in their respective systems.
The question is : What is the best practice-- Should we keep Vendor account group as main table field and define Vendors with one unique account groups OR we maintain the account group in qualified table each pointing to different business unit.
In my opinion this is going to be very complex solution. Ideally we need to define all the Harmonization rules before syndicating data to different target systems.
Is this possibel that the same vendor record which is existing as vendor of different account groups in different systems have same set of attributes. If yes then enabling the remote key for Account group Lookup field is one option and defining a unique Account group 'AG" (which is mapped to say AG1 from remote system1, AG2 from remote system2 and so on..)..
Managing this via Qualified table will be very complex and not advisabel. As Rajesh also mentioned Account Group in MDM should be considered as Global attribute and all such harmonization rules should be defined in your project. AG1=AG2=AG in above exmaple.
Hope this clarifies.
Thanks-Ravi

Enjoy Purchase order - Personal settings v Vendor Master fields

We want to use Personal settings to default certain fields but want fields from the vendor master to take prioirty.... can we change the field selection available to users or can we switch off personal settings, or change the priority so if payment terms maintains at vendor level, these take prioity over personal setting ones!

Dear Keith,
You can try it in your system, i told you as per standard SAP, so we talk about SAP design, and for me, it make sense if the personal setting is overriding the vendor master setting, because the vendor master (purchasing data) also just for default data,and SAP give personal setting in order to make default data under user level, so the personal setting is only effected for the user, not all user that using the transaction

Vendor Master field to customize

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with Vendor Master Data view. The requirement is to have new field in general view tab of Vendor which will be a box with two options to choose:
1. Raw Material vendor
2. empty
Could you please advise which existing field could be customize in that way? What would you recommend?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi,
There may be multiple approach for this, based on certain parameters...
1) Try to use the existing NOT USED fields in Vendor master standard view's, I think you can use the standard field for Vendor material from Vendor master.
2) Check with field settings for Vendor Account, if there are many extra fields available in Basic data view which may be suppressed or not used by your business. try to use them by changing field settings.
3) Enhance the standard View's with custom fields if not in field catalog, you need ABAPers help for this enhancement.
thanks

Vendor Master Field Group Authorizations

Hi guys,
I want to give the authorization to specific users for only changing a few fields in the Vendor Master.
There is an authorization field in the vendor master ( XK02 ) under control Tab. But how do we create this authorization ?
There is also define vendor field groups where we can restrict which fields to be changeable by the user. But how do we link these field groups to the vendor master?
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Srikanth.

HI,
You can use dual control to provide more security when changes are made to sensitive data in your customer and vendor master records. This function can be used for changing customer master records (FI-AR) and vendor master records (FI-AP).
Prerequisites: You must define the required sensitive fields in the customer or vendor master record in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable->Customer Accounts-> Master Records->Preparations for Creating Customer Master Records->Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control.
You must be authorized to change master records. You also define authorizations in Customizing (IMG) for Financial Accounting. To do so, choose Financial Accounting->Financial Accounting Global Settings->Maintain Profiles. The person who makes the changes is never allowed to confirm his or her own changes.
Features: You can define the required master data fields as sensitive in Customizing.
When an authorized accounting clerk changes a sensitive field in the customer or vendor master record (such as Alternative Payee), the relevant account is blocked for the payment run. The changes take effect immediately. The account remains blocked until a second authorized person confirms the master data changes. However, it is still possible to make a further change to an account that is already blocked. The second authorized person is informed of the changes by mail or by other means, and then uses the function Master records->Confirmation of change->Single (or->List) to edit the changes.
If the second authorized person does not confirm the master data change, the relevant account continues to be blocked for the payment run. The changes are likewise not reset.
Hope this helps you. Let me know if you need anyother information.
