SAP E-Book

In this activity, you can check for discrepancies in the mandatory setting for business partner fields in SAP CRM and customer fields in SAP ERP. You perform the check in preparation for data distribution between the applications, to ensure that the mandatory fields in both systems are identical. Discrepancies in the mandatory fields can cause the following problems:

  • In the case of a download from SAP ERP to SAP CRM, fields marked as mandatory in SAP CRM but not in SAP ERP do not trigger an error in data distribution, but can lead to problems when business users work with account data for which mandatory fields are empty.
  • In the case of an upload from SAP CRM to SAP ERP, fields marked as mandatory in SAP ERP but not in SAP CRM lead to errors in the data distribution.

Note

The report requires SAP enhancement package 6 (or above) for SAP ERP 6.0.

Selection

Before you run the report, you need to select the following:

  • The relevant ERP logical system
  • One or more ERP account groups, or ranges of account groups
The report only checks account groups that match your selection parameters and are entered in transaction PIDE in SAP ERP.

The report checks the mandatory field settings made per business partner role (and not settings made per client, activity, or business partner type).

Output

For the combination of account group, classification, and business partner role, the report shows the following:

  • For upload from SAP CRM to SAP ERP: non-mandatory field groups in SAP CRM that are mapped to mandatory modification groups in SAP ERP
  • For download from SAP ERP to SAP CRM: non-mandatory modification groups in SAP ERP that are mapped to mandatory field groups in SAP CRM

In SAP CRM, you can change the definition of mandatory fields in Customizing for Cross-Application Components,under SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner -> Basic Settings -> Field Groupings -> Configure Field Attributes per BP Role.

In SAP ERP, you can change the definition of mandatory fields in Customizing under Financial Accounting (New) -> Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable -> Customer Accounts -> Master Data -> Preparations for Creating Customer Master Data -> Define Account Groups with Screen Layout (Customers). The corresponding transaction is OVT0.

Note

  • Since the set of fields for customers in SAP ERP is larger than the set of fields for business partners in SAP CRM, fields marked as mandatory in SAP ERP may not exist in SAP CRM, leading to errors in data transfer.
  • The report only checks mandatory fields for business partner roles that are displayed on the UI for selection in the assignment block Roles. This setting is made in Customizing under Cross-Application Components -> SAP Business Partner -> Business Partner -> Basic Settings -> Business Partner Roles -> Define BP Roles. The visibility of business partner roles in WebClient UI is controlled by the Hide indicator.
  • If you have implemented Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) to modify fields, the report does not check these fields. For information about the relevant BAdIs, see SAP Note 1527865.
