CVI_CHECK_VISIBILITY - Find reason for field status in transaction BP with customer/supplier

General Material Data   TXBHW - Original Tax Base Amount in Local Currency  
This documentation is copyright by SAP AG.

Purpose

You are creating, editing or displaying a business partner in transaction BP, maybe but not necessarily in a customer or supplier role. An input field is mandatory, display-only, hidden or optional and you expect a different field status for this field group, or you wish to change it.

Press F1 in the field in transaction BP and click the "Technical Information" button, or use the code BDT_ANALYZER to find out the field group (or the name of a hidden field), and enter it in this report. It will show you the reason for the field status.

If the report does not yield the same final status as the one you are seeing in transaction BP, rerun the report with the option "I see a different final status".

Entry screen

Maintain the fields from top to bottom. When you enter information and press enter (or click a button or radio button) input fields further down may be updated, e.g. they may become mandatory or non-mandatory or information may be determined or defaulted based on your inputs.

First fill the field or the field group. Some special fields (e.g. buttons) don't have a table name, so leave it empty. If you know the field name (e.g. LANGUCORR) you can try pressing Enter after entering it - if the field name only exists once, the corresponding table name will be determined automatically.

For existing business partners the BP grouping, customer account group and supplier account group will be filled automatically if applicable.

In case of a new BP (activity "create") the BP grouping will be set to the internal standard grouping and the default customer and supplier account groups are determined based on this.

You can enter either a role or a role grouping, the field "role" will become non-mandatory after entering a role grouping and pressing Enter.

If the report does not yield the same final status as the one you are seeing in transaction BP, rerun the report with the option "I see a different final status".

If you think you found a bug or need other support, run the report with all output options checked and attach the result to an incident on component CA-FS-CVI.

Result screen

The information displayed on the result screen depends on the selections in section “Select desired outputs” on the entry screen. Minimum selection is “Only highest Status” which returns the result for those criteria that have the highest field status – all criteria with this status are listed. Optionally the following output sections can be added by maintaining the indicators on the entry screen:

- Flag “Print Inputs”: on top of the result list all entries made on the entry screen are printed

- Radio button “All Statuses”: Field status information is printed for all field modification criteria dealing with the entered field group / field. In addition the overall field status for this field is printed and combined statuses for the corresponding customer and supplier fields to explain the field status merging process.

- Print FI mapping: provides the mapping details for the selected field according to table CVI_BP_CV_ASSIGN and, table CVI_FLDGR_ASSIGN or by naming convention.

Further notes

Currently not supported: Account group change (but flexible account groups for newly created customers and suppliers is supported); fields that are hidden or display-only because of a lack of authorization.

For relationship fields you can use report CVI_CHECK_VISIBILITY_BUPR.
