Vendor's range number correction ? :-(

Hi guys,
I have all my vendors created with an internal number assignment, so the vendor id in R3 is not equal to my SRM vendor id.
What implications do you see if I define a new vendor's number range according to R3 ?
Thanks for your help !
Regards,
Diego

Hi Diego,
What's the issue with internal number range ?
Except if your user know by hart the R/3 supplier number instead of searchning it when necessary, i do not see any problem .
Please confirm
Kind regards,

Vendor Master Record number ranges

Hi,
We have one requirement . At present my client is maintaining the vendor master record number ranges with 4 digits. Ex. 0001 to 9999
His present requirement is that to maintain the number ranges with 4 digits .ex. 00001 to 99999. They want this should apply even to existing records. Ex: Old number 2345 , they want the present number should be 02345.
Request you to please help in resolving the issue. Thanks in advance for the help. Matter is urgent
Thanks

Hello Lakshmi,
It seems to me these are your alternatives.
1) For each old vendor in the 4-digit scheme, create a new vendor master record in the 5-digit scheme with the leading zero. Then, transfer all open documents/master records (invoices, purchase orders, info records, etc.) from the old vendor to the new vendor. Then, block the old vendor.
2) Same as previous except instead of changing all open documents, only change the master data (e.g., info records or long term contracts or agreements) to the new vendor master record and continue to use the old vendor master record until the open documents are closed. Then, block the old vendor master record.
I think option 2 will be the "safer" choice. Plus, for reporting, you will probably need to continue using both vendor numbers for a while.
Maybe someone else has an easier way...
Cheers,
Larry

Gaps in vendor master data number range

Hi, we have noticed there are sometimes gaps (missing numbers) in the internally issued vendor master data number range. Does anybody have any idea why this happens and how to avoid this?
Many Thanks for your answers!
Lucie

Hi Lucie,
This happens due to buffering of the number range in question. You can go to SNRO transaction (object KREDITOR) and change the buffering options (deactivate them, actually). Please, consult your ABAP team before doing this. For more info, see note 62077.

How to get PO and vendor payment term number of days??

Hi Experts,
I want to have a) Purchase order payment term number of days as well as
b) vendor Payment term number of days.
For a) For Purchase order payment term number of days I am using table EKKO and taking ZBD1T field which is giving payment
           term number of days.
          Is it correct??
      b) vendor Payment term number of days I am using table LFB1 field Zterm to take payment term key not number of days.
           Based on this key i will go to table T052 and find corresponding number of days as told MM consultants .
           But this is not BW work. We need one single table from which we can take the field or enhance the current extractor
          with that field.
So is there any other option for (b)
and Whether steps for (a) is correct???
Please confirm this.
Thanks in Advance,
Uday Shankar.

For a) For Purchase order payment term number of days I am using table EKKO and taking ZBD1T field which is giving payment
term number of days.
Is it correct??
Payment terms for purchasing doesn't come delivered as part of the R3/ECC tables and is usually is added as a custom field to EKKO and populated via a User Exit. That looks to be the instance in your case because the field that you show as being the payment terms begins with a Z (custom fields begin with Y or Z). That appears, without being able to actually validate in your R3/ECC environment, to be the correct field to use. You would have to validate, however, with the end customer or your MM function consultant to be 100% certain. If this is the correct one to use, you're going to have to enhance the 2LIS_02_HDR extractor by enhancing the extraction structure and creating the User Exit to read it from EKKO and populate into the DataSource.
b) vendor Payment term number of days I am using table LFB1 field Zterm to take payment term key not number of days.
Based on this key i will go to table T052 and find corresponding number of days as told MM consultants .
But this is not BW work. We need one single table from which we can take the field or enhance the current extractor
with that field.
You can enhance the 2LIS_02_HDR extractor with the Vendor Payment Terms by joining the following in your User Exit:
EKKO-LIFNR = LFB1-LIFNR
EKKO-BUKRS = LFB1-BUKRS
LFB1-ZTERM = T052-ZTERM
This could either be done in a SELECT statement in the User Exit to do this equi join, or you could create a view on your R3/ECC environment and SELECT from that view.

Vendor bank account number

Hi All,
How can i extend the length of Vendor Bank account number up to 20 Digits character over the SPRO.which max length in that field is 18 digit
Could any one help me out in this case...
Rgds,
Hendro

Are the changes being brought in only the prefix for that vendor and to reflect the same in table LFBK and see the field in Lifnr getting updated with the new Prefix value .
then check this Fm ..
BAPI_VENDOR_EDIT
May be can write a bdc for that particular vendor(s) in XK02 or can proceed with LSMW.
Im not sure clear with what transaction you are trying to change the prefix value cause u need to maintain that range for the vendor in the settings Spro.

Multiple Vendor Sub Ranges in single PO

Dear MM experts
My question is regarding Vendor Sub Range. We can specify VSR in item details in PO. Below are the doubts:
1. Can we have multiple VSR in the sme PO?
2. How the system behaves if there are more than 2 currencies involved. Example: USD from vendor originally and GBP and INR from two VSR in two line items.
3. If we have only one line item with VSR, the partners in header data changes immediately as soon as we select VSR. How partners at header should come, when there are different partner functions for different line items VSRs.
Thanks for reply
Ankita

Dear Jurgen
Thanks so much for providing the OSS reference.
So its like saying that if multiple VSR are maintained at item level, none will hold good. Data from vendor master will be picked up irrespective of VSR.
In other words, only one VSR data holds good for one PO.
Please correct me if wrong.
Thanks
Ankita

Mass change of Vendor Bank Account Number

Dear Friends,
We have installed the new STS software from Standard chartered Bank for transferring payments to suppliers. This software needs some changes to the vendor bank account number (specific prefix depending on the vendor bank account currency).
Is there any standard utility available to do this? Or canthis be done using LSMW?
Thanks

ME59N error "Contract vendor X differs from vendor Y" message number 06 047

Hello,
has anyone of you idea what could be the reason for that we receive every now and then in automatic purchase order run in ME59N an error message for a purchase requsition "Contract vendor X differs from vendor Y" message number 06 047
Also the purchase requisition in error (red) is displayed in the list under vendor Y even though agreement is for vendor X. In purchasing request agreement and fixed vendor X are displayed correctly.
The error does not appear in ME59N if we only select this one single purchase requistion.
Hope for your help and thanks in advance for any contribution.

Hello,
Yes, it seems like source is uncertain but cannot understand the reason because 20280 is only vendor for the material. For this same vendor there are three contracts where this material is included but only the latest one 4600000805 is valid.
I checked contract partners, no reference to the 197790 vendor or neither is there in vendor masters for 20280
and 197790.
Is there any way to simulate how SAP selects the vendor in background? And as I said in the afternoon run there is no error anymore or if me59N run for this specific purchase requisition.

Vendor Sub-Ranges

Hi all,
I'm trying to create a vendor sub-ranges for my existing vendor in vendor master data. I've tested it out in one server and everything work just fine.
Now I'm trying to do it for a different server.
Here is what I tried before:
1. In IMG, I've checked the Data Retent. Levels: Purchasing checkbox (OMSG).
2. In XK02, I've clicked on the Extras > Addl. Purchasing Data in order to create the sub-ranges
But the vendor sub-ranges button is disabled no matter what setting I did. May I know what else should I set in order to get the sub-ranges button enabled?
Regards,
JT

Hi experts,
Anyone can help me on this?
I got some questions for vendor sub-ranges.
1) How can I restrict the vendor sub-ranges based on vendor during PO creation? Current scenario will show all the available sub-ranges regardless of the vendors.
2) After I activated the vendor sub-ranges, the feature only enable in newly created vendor record. It is not reflected on the previously created vendor record. Is that the correct way? What should I do if I wish to enable the vendor sub-ranges for previously created vendor record as well?
Thanks & regards,
JT

Vendor Ref. Number from A/P Invoice & Credit Memo in the Check PLD Form

Hi Guys,
We have standard PLD layout form for the Check Document. In our case the Check Document based on the outgoing payment and outgoing payment referenced on A/P Invoice and Credit Memo documents.
Is there someone who knows how to get "Vendor Ref. Number" (NumAtCard) field from A/P Invoice and Credit Memo in the Cheque form?
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Sergey

Hi Nagarajan,
Thanks a lot for your answer! Yes, you are absolutely right, the variable number for this field was #100.
Unfortunately, this solution worked partially for us. In our case, we also needed to specify a "Document Date" (Tax Date) for the ref. document and there was a problem, because we could not find SAP variable number for this (I don't know if this exists?)
In the final, I just related "OJDT" to "VPM2" table and after that I have got my "TaxDate" field.
So we are good now.
In addition, maybe you know where can I get a variable numbers catalogue or something like that?
Thanks,
Sergey

Vendor schema group not appearing in purchasing data of Vendor sub range

Hi Experts,
I have created a vendor sub range and when maintaining the purchasing data, the vendor schema group field is not visible.
Is there any specific settings reqd. after maintaining the sub-range.
Please provide pointers!!!

HI Sandeep,
As i said this is not possible in stanadard SAP.
Even when you try opening VSR specific Purchasing data, there you will NOT get vendor schema group.
Reason is, Vendor Schema group will be maintained at Main vendor level. So irrespective of VSR, it will pick pricing procedure in the purchasiong Document.
VSR: In the vendor master, you can maintain different data for particular vendor sub-ranges, such as ordering addresses or terms of payment, for example.
When creating a purchase order with a known vendor, different data is only determined if the vendor sub-range is entered in the initial screen.
Hope this clears.

Purchasing info record for vendor's material number ONLY?

Hello gurus,
we have materials that must be ordered with refernce to a contract. We purchase these materials only from one vendor and exclusively using that contract (only one source of supply). We do need purchasing info records to store the vendor's material number.
Now, the problem is that if we have one contract and a purchasing info record, the system interprets the PIR as a second dource of supply. So, when I create a new PO, the price is automatically taken from the PIR and not from the contract.
Is it possible to create PIR's for the vendor's material number without creating a second soucre of supply?
Thanks in advance
Alicia
PS: I do know that i can use order lists but that does not solve the problem when manually creating a new PO...

why dont you maintain the vendors material number already in the contract item?
why do you create an info record that has a different price than the contract?

MM06EF0E_EKPO-LTSNR - Vendor Sub-Range Validtion Not Occuring

The vendor subrange validation does not seem to occur for contract creation. On checking, it appears that the cause is due to the exception not_found = 0 instead of not_found = 1 in program MM06EF0E_EKPO-LTSNR, since sy-subrc is evaluated thereafter.

Did you solve this problem? I just want to ask if you enhance the Extraction Structue of 0VENDOR_ATTR to append Vendor Sub-range?
Thanks!
