Vendor Master Numbers related

Hi Experts
I want to increase the number of digits of vendor code to 12. Where do I do this?
Regards

Hi,
If you go to transaction SNRO, Object-KREDITOR, the number length domain is of character length 10.
That is why you are only able to assign max 10 character numbers instead of 12.
It is advisable not to change the character length of the standard objects.

PRAA - Personnel numbers with already existing Vendor master record

Hi gurus,
We are using tcode PRAA to create vendor master, we notice some employees did not get converted to FK02 with the message "Personnel numbers with already existing Vendor master record". I checked FK02/FK03, but i didn't see any employee/vendor code there, I also checked vendor table, it is not there. why the system prompts me personnel numbers exist?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Just go to the table LFB1 and put in the field PERNR that you are trying to create.
If is created just put the transaction on modify instead of create.(if you want to change).
And is better to see the vendor in tansaction XK03.

Field related to DUNS number in the vendor master??

Hi,
We would like to store the DUNS number of our suppliers in the vendor master. It seems that an LFA1 extension is available specifically for storing the DUNS number and other D&B related data. I can not find any info on this. Can some one provide me with some info? We are on ECC6.0.
Thanks,

Numbers skipped by system in Vendor Master

Dear Experts ,
I have internal number range for a vendor account group .
The same number range ( internal or external ) is not issue to any other vendor account grp .
I observe that the system skips numbers in vendor master .
eg i created the first vendor as 1000
the next created is 1003
1001 & 1002 are skipped .
Is there any setting for the same ?
I have checked the system , there is no vendor created with the number 1001 & 1002 in the entire client .
How can this be avoided ?
Regards
Anis

Hi,
Please refer to Note 62077 for an explanation of gaps in
number range assignment.
Let me explain you the problem with the gaps. You have to choose
between performance and gaps. If a number range is NOT buffered, this
ensures the continuity of the numbers. This happens actually for some
financial number ranges, but only because of laws which do not allow
such gaps. All others live happy with gaps as long as there is no law
against it. But: for number ranges where numbers are seldom drawn,
even a buffer of 5 numbers might be cumbersome. If these gaps are
really bothering you, you may change the buffer from 5 down to 1 for
number range object DEBITOR (use transaction SNRO or SNUM). Then you
will have gaps only in case of errors or rollbacks.

Vendor Master Tax numbers - Mandatory

Dear Experts,
Currently tax field in vendor master is client specific. Appreciate your thoughts.
System should check whether users are entering any one of the tax field i.e. tax number 1, Tax number 2, Tax number 3, Tax number 4 or V.A.T field, if not the system should block the vendor from further processing. We can make anyone field as mandatory. But how can we make the system to check any one of the fields should be mandatory.
Regards,
R.S

Hi,
I think it is not possible in Standard SAP.
Can be done through ABAP using exit SAPMF02K (User exits: Vendor master data) with Function exit "EXIT_SAPMF02K_001".

Solved - Group Fields for Vendor Master Records in IMG

This was the solution.
The new field's data element I added to LFB1 did not have the "change document" field checked. I made that change and now that field shows up in IMG.
Hello all,
I added an append structure to the table LFB1. This structure has 1 field. I then created a "Modification-Free Enhancement of Vendor Master Record" to add the new LFB1 field to the vendor master screen, edit and display screens. This is the 3rd time I have done this. So far so good.
Now our functional analyst went into IMG to add this new LFB1 field to a "Group Fields for Vendor Master Records" which we have done 2 other times.
The new LFB1 field does not show up in the list of possible Table-fields.
There must be some other step I am missing.
Does any of this ring a bell? We are on version 4.7.
Thanks
Bruce
p.s.
This is the IMG path for adding 'Field Groups' to vendor master fields.

Hi Vandana,
There are several tables that are contain Vendor Master related data which can be used for extraction to BW. Some of the tables which can be useful for you are:
LFA1 : Vendor Master (General Section)
LFM1 : Vendor master record purchasing organization data
LFBW : Vendor master record (withholding tax types) X
WYT3 : Partner Functions
LFBK : Vendor Master (Bank Details)
LFB1: Vendor Master (Company Code)
ADRC: Addresses (Business Address Services)
ADR3: Fax Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADR6: SMTP Numbers (Business Address Services)
ADRT: Communication Data Text (Business Address Services)
You may use the Data sources mentioned in the previous update from Venky above namely :
0VENDOR_ATTR --- for master data attributes
0VENDOR_TEXTS -- For texts
Since the fields that you are using are from different tables so its better if you go for a Generic Data source where you can use the fields as per your requirement.
Thanks

Vendor Master LSMW issue !

I'm sorry for reposting this thread but really need solution for this:
Hi all,
Im designing a lsmw for Vendor master [XK01] through recording , now the problem Im facing is ,there are two fields whose technical names as well as description is same 1.Authorization[LFA1-BEGRU] occurring at account control section screen SAPMF02K-120V, Authorization[LFB1-BEGRU] occurring at accounting Info screen SAPMF02K-210V.
2.Terms Of Payment key[LFB1-ZTERM] occurring at SAPMF02K-0215, Terms Of Payment key[LFM1-ZTERM] occurring at SAPMF02K-0310.
Now after recording both of the fields are captured in rec but when I try to Map the fields in step 4 i.e field mapping I can map only one of them as there is only one fieldby these names, BEGRU,ZTERM in target structure. Because of them two fields are left unmapped in o/p.
One more question of mine is how can I give external vendor numbers in this LSMW???
Thanks and regards
Sachin

In my earlier response, I meant you can map one source field to 2 target fields.
apologies for writing the other way round.
Pls. check if you have maintained teh Structure relations and teh other previous steps correctly.
Here I am able to map one source fields to two different target field from diff. tables.

Vendor Code is common for all co codes . The vendor has different Bank account numbers for each Co code. Hence while mainting the vendor master in the tab payment transactions all bank details appear for one co code & not able to identify the bank account no. for that co code. We are finding it difficult while the payment is made thru ebanking.
Pls advise at the earliest.

Infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record

Hi All,
pls help me what infotype to link Personnel Number with Vendor Master Record in AP module.
Customer require when Create Employee then system automatic gernerate Vendor Master.
pls help us.
Thanks

Hi,
PRAA works absolutely fine. I have external number range for vendors.
There is an option so that you can create HR accounts in vendor accounts
Path:Accounting> Financial accounting>Travel
management>Personal-Related Master Data> Create Vendors (tr.code PRAA)
Look at this description:
From the HR master data, this program creates a batch input session for
maintaining person-specific vendor master records.
The report can process vendor master records as follows:
o Initial set up (create/add missing company code segment)
o Uupdate (change completely according to vendor and HR reference)
o Change (only according to HR master data, for example, name
Block
The following infotypes from HR master data are taken into account for
the key date specified:
o Actions (Infotype 0000)
o Organizational Assignment (Infotype 0001)
o Personal Data (Infotype 0002)
o Permanent Residence (Infotype 0006 Subtype 1)
o Bank Details (Infotype 0009 Subtype 0 or 2)
All other required data is taken from a reference vendor that you can
specify as a parameter when you start the program. Note that for the
reference vendor, reference data must exist for all company codes that
are applicable according to HR master data. Since program RPRAPA00 cannot
assign vendor master record numbers externally when creating
vendor master records, you must be sure that the reference vendor is
assigned to an account group that requires internal number assignment.
If no house bank is specified in the reference vendor, this is
determined via feature TRVHB (Implementation guide for 'Travel Expenses'
-> Transfer to Data Medium Exchange -> Set up Feature for Determining
House Bank according to the employee's organizational situation.
The link between the HR employee's master record and the corresponding
vendor master record is set up by entering the personnel number in the
company code segment of the vendor master record.
General program flow
Program RPRAPA00 creates a sequential work file in the specified
directory. Ensure that you use a global directory that can be accessed
by all application servers; a directory is automatically proposed. The
work file is later transformed into a batch input session by the
subsequent program RFBIKR00, which is started automatically.
In test run mode this program delivers information messages which
document the creation of a batch input session. Since each information
message must be confirmed manually, the test run should only be
performed for a small number of personnel numbers.
In productive run mode, however, the program RFBIKR00 is automatically
started as a job; the information mentioned above is stored in the job
log in this case.
Initial setup of vendor master records
Corresponding vendor master records are created from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. During the process, the personnel number is stored in the
company code segment of the vendor master record. Persons who already
have a vendor master record with corresponding personnel number are
rejected in this run.
If a vendor master record already exists for a personnel number, but
without a company code segment for the company code in which the
employee exists at the key date entered, the program adds the required
company code segment to the vendor master record. You must however
activate the checkbox "Create new company code segment for existing
vendor master records".
The HR master data used is the info type record valid on the key date
entered.
Update of vendor master records
The corresponding vendor master records are updated from the infotypes
listed above and the non-HR-specific information from the reference
vendor. Persons who already have a vendor master record with
corresponding personnel number are rejected in this run. The system uses
HR master data from the infotype records valid for the key date.
Change vendor master records according to HR master data
All HR-specific data is changed in the vendor master records for
personnel numbers that have changes since the date recorded under '...
with last change since'. The system uses HR master data again from the
infotype records valid for the key date specified.
Block vendor master records
All vendor master records which correspond with the selected personnel
numbers are blocked for posting.
User exits
For the following situations, two empty routines are supplied in the
includes RPRAPAEX and RPRAPAEX&H5F001 which you can adapt to your
requirements.
o The employee's last name is entered in the sort field in the vendor
master record. If you do not want this to happen, you can program
the situation you want in the user exit routine
'set&H5Fmc&H5Ffield&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If the address editing in the vendor master record does not suit
your requirements, it can also be changed. For this purpose you have
the user exit routine 'set&H5Faddress&H5Fby&H5Fuser'.
o If you want to assign numbers to the vendor master records to be
created via external number assignment (for example, vendor master
record number &H3D personnel number), you can adjust the user exit
routing 'SET&H5FVENDOR&H5FNO&H5FBY&H5FUSER' (in include RPRAPAEX&H5F00). Note
that
the account group of the reference vendor must also have external
number assignment.
Note that in each case a thorough knowledge of the programming
language
ABAP/4 is necessary.
Set up vendor master records in a separate system
The distribution of personnel master data from a HR system to an FI
system is a prerequisite for creating, changing, and blocking vendor
master records.
In the section Master Data Distribution (link to separate HR unit) of
the ALE IMG, an explanation is given regarding the way in which the
FI
System is supplied with the relevant employee data from the HR System
In the FI System, report RPRAPA00 described here can be used to
create,
change, and block vendor master records.
Other wise try with VPE1 t.code.

Payment terms in vendor Master

Hi,
In XK01- create vendor master, There are two payment terms--> payment transaction field and other in purchasing organisation data.
Is there a configuration which will default the payment terms in purchasing org screen based on the inputs in the company code screen
Regards,
Srijith

No there is no such customizing.,
Not every vendor with purchasing org data needs company code data. Not every vendor with company code data needs purchasing data.
The payment terms at company code level are used if you post non-PO related invoices with FI transactions.
the payment term of purchasing org data is used if the process is PO related.

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
Links stored incompletely:
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.
